Chapter 18.2 - A Pretend Date
Luo Fei thought to himself, it is a date.
It’s best to bring some gifts to make a good impression on the other party as it’s the first time inviting them for dinner.
Without further explanation, he walked into a men’s clothing store and waved Emil over. “Cousin, please help me pick.”
Emil followed him in with an awkward expression.
One alpha needs another alpha to help buy a gift for another alpha?
No matter how you think about it, it feels weird…
This store sells high-end custom-made men’s clothing, and is very famous across the Empire. While expensive, their designs are relatively low-key, restrained, and not too exaggerated. It can be worn during formal occasions, but also casually too. Many business people buy clothes from this store, making it a good option for Mo Han.
As soon as the two entered the store, a beautiful shopping guide followed politely and said, “What do you two gentlemen want to choose?”
Compared to Emil’s confusion, Luo Fei looked calm. Scanning the store, he quickly took a fancy to a tie and asked, “What do you think of this one?”
When Emil came back to his senses, he found that Luo Fei had chosen a navy-blue tie with a pattern embroidered in white. The tie is neither too frivolous nor dull, just right for young people, and the color is very refreshing.
Emil took a closer look at the tie and said, “I think it’s good. Are you sure you want to give him a tie?”
Luo Fei nodded: “En, he should like it.”
Because, during the press conference, Mo Han wore a tie of this style, which looked especially good with him.
The first time giving a gift, he can’t choose something indiscriminately. Ties are a must-have for men, and Mo Han has worn blue before, so he obviously doesn’t hate blue. Since Mo Han will often attend various events, a blue tie that’s conservative in style will definitely be useful.
Thinking of this, Luo Fei turned back to the shopping guide and said, “Please package in a gift box, thank you.”
The shopping guide nodded immediately when she heard this. “Okay sir, please wait a moment.”
She took a new tie from the warehouse, packed it into an exquisite gift box, and handed it to Luo Fei with a smile.
After paying, Luo Fei turned around and left with the gift box.
Emil was stuck where he was for a minute. After catching up to Luo Fei, he whispered, “Your dinner with Mo Han, do you want me to go with you?”
Luo Fei turned around and said, “No, I want to talk to Mo Han alone.”
“But I am his real alumni, you’re just a fake.” Emil looked conflicted.
Luo Fei said: “There will be no problem with Chongming… Cousin, you can have dinner alone at night. I will pay for you.”
“Oh,” Emil shrugged helplessly. “Okay.”
What’s with the sudden feeling of being rejected?
***
At dinner time, Emil went to the cafeteria to eat alone, while Luo Fei went to the door of Room 5017 and rang the doorbell.
After a while, a bodyguard appeared at the door, with a blank expression on his face. “What’s the matter?”
Luo Fei said politely, “I’m looking for Mo Han, I’m his senior.”
The bodyguard said, “Wait a moment.”
He obviously went into the room to ask Mo Han for instructions, and came out after a while, saying, “Please come in.”
Luo Fei touched his nose and followed the bodyguards into the room.
The size of this room is larger than the luxury suite that Luo Fei booked. There were several bodyguards standing in the room. When they saw him coming in, they immediately looked at Luo Fei in unison.
Luo Fei didn’t feel uncomfortable being stared at by the bodyguards. Instead, he smiled at them cheekily, and consciously sat on the nearby sofa, and waited. The bodyguards had no choice but to stop looking at him and stare at the starry sky outside the porthole.
There was the sound of rustling water in the bathroom – Mo Han was clearly taking a bath.
After a while, the sound of water stopped. When he saw Mo Han come out of the bathroom, Luo Fei’s eyes lit up—
Wearing a white bathrobe, Mo Han had just taken a shower, and his skin was still full of moisture. Under the light, his fair and smooth skin seemed to be covered with a layer of soft water. Wet hair hung by his ears, black as ink, making his earlobes even whiter. A few droplets of water slid down the slender neck, disappearing into the chest covered.
Luo Fei swallowed his saliva. This scene made his heart move so much. He wished he could go over and hug and kiss him.
However, due to the presence of the bodyguards, Luo Fei did not dare to act rashly, lest he be caught and beaten.
Mo Han glanced at Luo Fei indifferently, and asked while wiping his hair. “Senior came so early? Fifteen minutes earlier than the agreed six o’clock.”
Luo Fei stood up and said with a gentlemanly smile, “I want to come here early and wait for you.”
Mo Han said, “Then wait a moment, I’ll go change my clothes.”
He went to the change room to change his clothes, dry his hair, and then told the bodyguards: “Jonah, Josh, follow me. The rest of you, stay here.”
The two men immediately bowed and said, “Yes, young master.”
These bodyguards should be Mo Han’s loyal guardians, and will sacrifice themselves to protect Mo Han’s safety at critical moments. They’re all betas, obviously professionally trained, burly and muscular, with miniature pistols in their back pockets. As long as someone dares to approach Mo Han with bad intentions, these people will definitely blow the opponent’s head in an instant.
The kidnapping case back then should have left a psychological shadow on Mo Qiming, which is why Mo Han was so cautious every time he went out.
Luo Fei looked at Mo Han tenderly. The more he looked at him, the more beautiful he felt he was.
He is still dressed in a simple shirt and trousers. The shirt is blue, and is more casual than before. The collar of the shirt was unbuttoned, revealing a delicate and beautiful collarbone. Despite the casual outfit, the clothing could not conceal his unique temperament.
Sensing the First Prince’s gaze, Mo Han raised his eyebrows suspiciously, and asked, “What does senior want to eat?”
Luo Fei smiled and said, “You know more about this spaceship, so you can decide.”
Mo Han said: “Then go to the VIP restaurant on the fifth floor. The environment is quieter.”
Naturally, Luo Fei would not object, and went out with him.
It turns out that everything in the movie is true.
Going on a date with someone you like, even if it’s just a simple meal, will instantly improve one’s mood.
