Chapter 1279: Awkward
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
For someone like Mu Feichi, who had an extraordinary lifestyle and had always had his clothes tailored for each season of the year, ordinary clothes were simply not good enough.
However, as the Young Commander, he was able to wear his military uniform without complaint while still having the same dominating aura as he always had.
He was utterly perfect, and no one could find any fault with him.
It was no wonder that so many young ladies from wealthy backgrounds and celebrities tried to flock around him. He was the type of man that a girl might lose after allowing him out of the house.
Mu Feichi smirked and leaned toward his little vixen who was staring at him dazed. He playfully nibbled her ear.
“Babe, if you keep looking at me as if you’re about to ravage me, I won’t be able to control myself.”
The playful nibble sent a shiver through Yun Xi’s entire body, and she backed away with her face blushing feverishly. That had certainly jolted her back to reality.
She took a deep breath and looked at the man in front of her. She proudly lifted her chin just to make herself look less embarrassed.
Seeing her pretending to seem stuck up, Mu Feichi could not help but let out a chuckle. He finally stopped teasing her. He stood up straight, adjusted his collar, and turned to her, asking, “What do you think? Does this work as a disguise?”
Yun Xi took a deep breath and tried to keep it together as she looked at him. Then she took a pair of glasses with thick black frames from the shelf next to her. “Adding a pair of glasses should do the trick.”
Mu Feichi tilted his head slightly, staring nonchalantly back at the new person in the mirror, and chuckled lightly. MMM! “Not bad at all.”
To avoid being harassed by him again, Yun Xi quickly reached out her hand to him. “Could you please give me your wallet.”
Mu Feichi was momentarily stunned. Then he stared back at her, looking a little bemused. “What? Isn’t this your gift to me?”
“I didn’t bring any cash with me…”
“Neither did I.”
“…”
Yun Xi’s eyes suddenly got wide, and she stretched out her hands and ran them over his body. After patting him thoroughly, she realized that he was wearing new clothes. She quickly went back into the fitting room and fumbled through the clothes he had taken off. True enough, there was no sight of a wallet.
Just great, the two of them had left the house without any money. Had they both been expecting to get a free meal today?
“What now?!” Yun Xi looked at the clothes he had on and turned her head to face the store assistant who was walking up to them. Then she looked back at Mr. Three-Year-Old who seemed unbelievably calm and was trying to hide a smile as he said teasingly, “Maybe I should just leave you here as a deposit…”
“Why don’t you ask them if they’re willing to keep me here then?”
The store assistant had long since recognized who Mu Feichi was, but had not dared to come forward. Seeing that they were in such a conundrum, he felt it was only right that he offer his assistance.
“We would never dare to keep you, Young Commander. I am the manager of this store. All you need to do is to sign your name for your purchases in the store.”
Mu Feichi glanced at him and nodded his thanks. Then he turned to look at Yun Xi. “Do you have your answer now?”
Yun Xi said, “Nobody in the world would ever dare oppose you.”
Mu Feichi chuckled lightly. Then, he took out his phone and called Jiang Chenghuan. “I’m at the M Boutique in Jingdu Tower. Could you bring some cash over quick and come to my rescue.”
Before Jiang Chenghuan could speak, he hung up the phone. Then he pulled Yun Xi onto the couch in the corner and sat down.
“Who did you call to come put out the fire?”
“For someone like you who’s an expert at causing a scene, who do you think I called?”
“Jiang Chenghuan?” Yun Xi raised her eyebrows. “Then he’s probably nearby. We were supposed to meet up here.”
When the manager standing them heard what they were saying, his heart jumped. “Young Commander…if our service has been inadequate in any way, please forgive us…”
“It’s nothing. Didn’t you hear? Your Young Master is coming here anyway, so he can help settle our bill.”
“Okay…” The manager smiled awkwardly, uncertain if he should be laughing or crying.
This was a business owned by the Jiang Corporation, and he wanted them to collect money from his own boss? How does that make any sense at all?
