Bai Chen stared at the two transparent white windows for a while before closing them. At that same time, he saw a middle-aged woman rushing his way. She was rather plump. If he had to guess, Bai Chen assumed that this woman was definitely the owner of the stolen bag.
“Ah… my bag!”
The middle-aged woman exclaimed when she saw her handbag on the ground next to the unconscious thief. She rushed to pick up the bag nervously.
Other people in the business district who had witnessed the whole incident slowly gathered. A middle-aged man in a shop uniform walked towards Bai Chen and smiled at him. “Chen Boy, you did really well catching that thief.”
Bai Chen smiled faintly. He knew this middle-aged man well. He was none other than the fishmonger, whose shop was at the entrance of Xing Seng Business District. “It was nothing, Uncle Chang. That’s what I’m supposed to do anyway.”
“Thank you so much, boy. If it weren’t for you, my bag would have been taken away by this thief!” The middle-aged woman approached him to say thank you while pointing her finger at the unconscious robber.
Bai Chen smiled in return. “No problem at all. Please hurry and call the police to lock him up. Now, if you would excuse me.”
“Understood. I truly do thank you.” The middle-aged woman nodded before she took out her mobile phone to call the police to handle the still-unconscious thief.
After seeing her make a call, Bai Chen walked back to his bicycle and sped home, amid the admiring looks from the people in the business district.
When he got back, the first thing he did was to greet his parents. Then, he went back to his room.
“Let’s see if there are new things in the system.”
He smiled with anticipation… expecting that Level 2 would give him access to new and better things in the Life Changing System. Bai Chen quickly called the system window out to see.

Bai Chen could not help but feel disappointed looking at the system window. Everything looked the same.
However, his disappointment did not last long. He thought that even though there was nothing new in Level 2 if he leveled up more, there would eventually be new features in the system for sure.
Bai Chen stopped thinking about this and shifted his attention to Mission 9, which was new. He frowned a little as he read the title.
“Give a flower to your date tomorrow?” he said to himself in confusion. Bai Chen did not know who his date was. He then clicked on Mission 9 to see more.

Bai Chen came to a realisation as soon as he went through the mission details. It was very likely that the date the system talked about was Li Lin. But he had not believed it to be a date, because Li Lin had told him so herself that it was not.
“So it really is a date. My first date…” Bai Chen mumbled to himself. He felt excited about going on a date for the first time in his life. And this mission was really easy.
He would only have to buy a flower and give it to Li Lin, then the mission would be complete!
Bai Chen closed the mission window, then chose to use the randomisation feature. Having witnessed the brilliance of them with his own eyes, Bai Chen wanted to obtain new skills or items.
A roulette wheel appeared. Bai Chen did not hesitate. He pressed the middle of the roulette wheel right away.
The roulette wheel spun rapidly before coming to a halt at the pocket...special skills!

[Congratulations, you have received low-grade piano skills!]

“Low-grade piano skills?”
Bai Chen stared at the pocket with surprise. He did not expect that he would get something like this.
He felt excited nevertheless. Whatever special skills he got, he regarded them all as extraordinary. Bai Chen quickly checked the details of the low-grade piano skills.

After reading through the description of the low-grade piano skills, knowledge of how to play the piano flooded Bai Chen’s head.
It was just like the time when he received the low-grade martial arts technique; he felt as if he had been a trained pianist for a very long time.
“The low-grade piano skills could make me a professional pianist if I desired to be one.” Bai Chen smiled, thinking it would not be hard to become a professional pianist if he wanted to.
