Chapter 251 Gift



"Although I appreciate this fast delivery speed, this is also..." Ash looked at the drones that hurried back and forth. They returned to their own airspace in a fast but orderly manner. "Isn't this too rude? Isn't this considered trespassing?"

"It's OK." An Nan said, "The Almo UAV Logistics system is ranked third in the Technological Revolution List in the past ten years. It is at the top level in terms of efficiency, safety, and the Internet of Everything. Although Belia and Tafa are closely behind, they also relied on Almo's technology to catch up... It was a bit annoying at first, but you get used to it after a while."

"Can't you be a little more polite?" Igula, who cares a lot about privacy, is also a little dissatisfied with this delivery system: "For example, putting the goods on the balcony..."

"If it is left outside, there is a risk of damage, and the buyer may forget. The express delivery must be placed in the living room where the customer can easily notice it." An Nan said: "I haven't learned about it in detail, but the current express delivery system is definitely the most advanced, because companies like Almo are definitely developing in accordance with the guidance of the Gospel. If they go the wrong way or stagnate, Belia and Tafa will definitely take the opportunity to catch up."

Because it follows the guidance of the Gospel, it is the most advanced; because it is the most advanced, it is reasonable... ?

Igula and Ash both felt that there was something wrong with this logic, but they couldn't put their finger on it.

While they were chatting, Liz had already gone over to start opening the package. The package box had a convenient snap, so even a little girl could open it with her bare hands. Panji squatted beside them and asked, "Do you need help?"

"No need!" Liz said happily, taking out a blue velvet gift box from the courier, "Here you go!"

Banji was slightly startled and pointed at himself: "Give it to me?"

"Yes, it's for Brother Banji!"

"Thank you!" Ban Ji was a little flattered when he took the box and found a sapphire earring inside. It was exquisitely crafted and the gems were dazzling. He put it on himself. Although it looked good, compared with An Nan's amethyst earring, the sapphire earring seemed a little tacky and even a little too much.

In other words, with the sapphire earrings as a comparison, Ash and others realized that An Nan's amethyst earrings were indeed worth the money - beautiful but not greasy, dazzling but not arrogant, they not only set off the charm of the wearer, but also naturally and harmoniously blended into the wearer's image, and seemed to contain miraculous effects such as "charm".

By exchanging these rare ornaments for their three lives, the Four Pillars Sect could be said to have made a huge profit from An Nan's attempt to rip them off.

However, Banji rubbed Liz's head happily: "I like it very much, thank you Liz."

Then Liz took out a gift box and handed it to An Nan who was drinking coffee: "Sister An Nan, this is for you."

An Nan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Thank you, can I open it now and take a look?"

"Can!"

The gift that Liz gave to An Nan was a moon-white fox-dragon hairpin. Although it looked a bit childish, An Nan seemed to like it very much. She pinned it on the ends of her hair near her ears, which made her temperament become lively.

"And then there's this... it's a gift from Aunt Borgin!"

"Is it a skirt?" Ash asked.

"No, but almost." Liz took out a dress that looked like a skirt. "It will look great on Aunt Borgin!"

Igula took it and found it was a dress that could be worn directly outside the pants as a decoration. There were many hidden pockets on the dress, and Igula unexpectedly found that he had never noticed the existence of such a convenient storage device - for a psychic who is good at planning and arranging battlefields, the more secret pockets he has, the more preparations he can make before the battle, and he can bring more kinds of love potions.

Ash seemed to see that he was very satisfied with the gift, and teased, "Aunt Borgin, you must not like this kind of clothes, right? After all, you didn't hug Liz and spin around to show your happiness... Why don't you give it to me? I like this style of clothes!"

Igula glanced at him, waved to Liz who looked expectant, lifted her up and spun her around: "You're pretty heavy."

Liz pouted and punched him on the head: "Aunt Borgin is so rude!"

"I'm sorry, little girls are not within my business scope."

At this time, Harvey seemed to have finally settled the guest he brought back. He walked out of the room, holding an unlit cat grass cigarette in his mouth, and looked at the scene in the living room curiously: "Huh?"

"Uncle Harvey!" Liz found a notebook-sized gift from the pile of express deliveries: "This is for you!"

"Do I have a gift too?" The necromancer put the cat grass cigarette behind his ear and said calmly, "Thank you... a notebook?"

"No, this is a black and white reading and writing notebook." Liz said, "You just need to press the paper to print the picture in your mind on the notebook. Uncle Harvey, you often stand by the window to look at the scenery. I think you must like painting."

"This can't really be considered a painting... But thanks." Harvey put away his notebook, hesitated for a moment, and took out a candy wrapper: "Uncle will give you some candy--"

Before Ash could react, his body bound by the contract had already rushed over and tangled with the necromancer. Harvey quickly blocked Ash's attack and said, "This is real candy! I don't even have enough moon candy for myself, how can I give it away! This is the real candy I use to satisfy my craving for the moon!"

"To be safe, Liz, you'd better not eat any candy from Uncle Harvey." Igula said, "Although I can treat sugar addiction, it will hurt the brain a little bit - hurt the patient's brain. If Harvey gave the wrong candy, I'm afraid Ash would be killed because of you and the necromancer."

"Liz doesn't like sweets either. She only likes soft red velvet cream cake."

After saying that, Liz went back to have breakfast. Ash pressed Harvey under him and watched the white-haired girl spread mayonnaise on the bread.

Under everyone's subtle gazes, Ash helped Harvey up and sat next to Liz: "Cough, cough, cough--"

Harvey patted Ash's back fiercely: "I'll pat you if you're out of breath. No need to thank me. Just consider it as a return of favor."

Igula glanced at the embarrassed Ash, raised the corner of his mouth and asked, "Lis, you bought so many gifts, is there any for the only 0-star genius in this house?"

“Yes.” Liz’s mouth was full of bread crumbs. “But someone is very angry and doesn’t want to give it to him.”

"Why are you angry?"

"Because someone lost the game last night because he kicked the stool with a trick. He was so angry that he couldn't sleep all night. So some people don't want to give him a gift."

Now everyone looked at Ash with a little more contempt - using dirty tricks when playing games with a little girl was really shameless, even Igula was ashamed to be associated with him.

Even if he is a fraud, he won't cheat little girls since they are five years old!

"No way, you still remember this after a night!?" Ash was shocked: "Don't they say that children forget things easily? Your ability to remember grudges is comparable to that of Igula!"

Iguala looked at Harvey in confusion: "Do I hold a grudge?"

"I don't know much about you," the necromancer said. "If we ignore the fate of those who have offended you in prison, you probably don't hold grudges."

Liz finished her bread, drank a full glass of hot milk, turned to look at Ash and said, "If you don't apologize, someone will continue to be angry, and the gift you bought won't be given away—"

"I'm sorry, it's my fault. I shouldn't have done that and made you fall on your butt."

"Hehe." Liz raised her hand and touched Ash: "A good father is one who admits his mistakes. Next time we play games, you won't do this again, right?"

"Well, next time I'll make it look like a normal accident so you won't find out it was me who did it."

“…” Liz took back her hand: “Not only is there someone, even Liz is a little angry.”

"But Liz, think about it from my perspective," Ash said earnestly. "If you are about to lose a game, and your opponent shows a flaw in real life, would you seize this flaw and teach your opponent a lesson with a swift and furious victory, so that she knows that a real player should also be impeccable in real life?"

"Dad, what you said makes sense..."

No, that doesn't make sense, does it? Everyone thought.

However, everyone looked at Ash with admiration again - as we all know, little girls are particularly unwilling to listen to reason, but Ash was able to twist his own twisted logic into sweet words and feed them to Liz, and Liz completely accepted it, which proved that Ash is very good at getting along with children.

Or he could lower his IQ to the same level as a child, and then use his rich experience to defeat the child.

No matter which possibility it is, it means that Ash is completely bound to Liz, and the two of them are a small circle of power that cannot be penetrated by water or fire.

For this startup company with only six people, Ash and Liz can be said to be powerful figures.

Liz was completely convinced and took out a large box and handed it to Ash.

Ash opened the box happily, and thinking carefully, this seemed to be the second gift he received in reality - the first gift was naturally the blessings from the Four Pillars Gods, and also came with a VIP package with food and accommodation at Broken Lake Prison.

A dark red gradient windbreaker appeared in front of Ash.

He was slightly startled and put on the windbreaker, feeling like he was putting on a vain battle robe.

"Liz has good taste, it really suits you."

"Honestly, with Ash's taste in clothes, there's no way Liz can make him any worse."

"I think it's quite nice, and it's very suitable as your mourning dress."

Ignoring the group's comments, Ash asked, "Liz, why did you buy this dress for me?"

"Because it suits Daddy." Liz said, "And feel your pocket."

Ash took out a card with a number on it from his pocket: "This is..."

"This is a recharge card for Epic, given to me when I bought the windbreaker." Liz said, "Isn't the virtual game my dad plays called Epic? This Purgatory Windbreaker is their official peripheral, and I got a recharge card for free when I bought it. I think my dad will like it..."

"For today only, you are my biological daughter!" Ash hugged Liz tightly: "Liz likes red velvet cake? Igula, help me find the cooking book for making cakes, and then make one and send it to me after you learn it!"

Igula said coldly: "Next time you ask me for help, I will remember to let you make the cake."

Ash blinked and said, "There won't be a next time... We'll talk about it later if there is."

"Dad, you are exaggerating." Liz giggled, broke away from Ash's arms, and went to pick up the remaining express boxes: "Then I will go back to my room to continue opening the presents."

"Ah?" An Nan asked, "Then there are a dozen or so express boxes left..."

"Yes, these are all gifts that Liz bought for herself!" Liz said confidently: "I've encountered a lot of things recently, and Liz felt that I needed to reward myself!"

Banji helped take the package over and asked casually, "You bought so much, Liz, do you have any money left?"

Liz paused, didn't answer, went into the room and quickly closed the door.

“Hehehe…”

Ash saw Igula covering his mouth and laughing, and asked curiously: "What are you laughing at? And your smile is so sinister."

"Nothing." Igula picked up a shrimp salad, "I just felt like someone was going to get scolded."

"Liz!"

The White Queen in the half-length mirror could barely contain her expression: "You actually spent all your money!?"

Liz knelt in front of the mirror, looking honest and well-behaved, reflecting seriously. She suddenly handed over a gift box: "Sister Bai, I picked this specially for you."

The White Queen was so angry that she laughed: "What's the difference between giving me a gift and giving yourself a gift? Do you think you can fool the sisters like this?"
