Chapter 463 - 464 Surprise: Candlelight Dinner
Qin Mobai gave Lu Li no time to react, taking Lou Xi into the car and leaving Lu Li and Bai Lu at the hospital entrance.
Watching the car drive away, it took Lu Li a while to regain his senses. He then turned to Bai Lu and said, "People like Qin Mobai, who prioritize romance over friendship, shouldn’t be friends at all!"
Bai Lu nodded in agreement.
Seeing the girl agree with him, Lu Li smiled.
But then Bai Lu immediately added, "Not suitable as a friend, but perfect as a husband!"
Lu Li quickly realized that Bai Lu was hinting he might not be suitable as a husband!
He pushed Bai Lu into the passenger seat and walked around the front of the car to get in.
"Brothers are like limbs, women are like clothing," Lu Li declared.
"What?" Bai Lu truly couldn’t understand Lu Li’s train of thought. Was he trying to say that clothes can be discarded after wearing, but limbs can’t be chopped off?
Fine, very good!
Bai Lu wanted to get out of the car.
But the car had already started, and Lu Li immediately said, "A person can live without limbs, but who goes out without clothes? So, clothes are more important than limbs! You’re more important than my brothers!"
Unexpectedly, Bai Lu heard Lu Li’s confession.
Yet this confession made her feel like she was on an emotional rollercoaster.
However, this only proved that Lu Li had no prior dating experience, but he was eager to let Bai Lu experience the joy of being in love.
A man so determined to engage in a romance, for the sake of his efforts, let’s forgive his rather disastrous confession just now!
...
"Where are you taking me?" Qin Mobai asked after he mentioned the destination to the driver. She hadn’t heard clearly.
"You’ll find out when we get there."
"Always with the mysteries!"
"You can think of it as a surprise."
Immediately, Qin Mobai produced the dress from earlier. It’s unclear when he arranged for it, as it was left in the store when they departed.
"Wasn’t the dinner canceled?" Lou Xi asked, surprised as she looked at the dress.
Qin Mobai smiled and didn’t answer, "Put it on; you look beautiful in it."
Qin Mobai raised the divider between the front and back seats, coupled with the tinted windows, so neither the people in the front nor outside could see Lou Xi changing clothes.
But changing clothes in front of Qin Mobai was truly a dangerous thing.
And this man, now gazing deeply at her, as if he were looking at a delicious dish.
"Turn around, and I’ll change."
After hearing some rustling behind him, Lou Xi soon said she was ready but needed Qin Mobai to fasten the hidden clasp at the back.
Qin Mobai kept it formal and didn’t touch her unnecessarily.
The car quickly reached its destination.
A seaside beach, looking like a natural area not yet developed.
As dusk approached, the orange sun hung in the western sky, tinting the entire blue sea.
Qin Mobai, with Lou Xi in her gown, walking hand in hand towards the sea.
They passed through tropical trees, and Lou Xi suddenly saw tables and chairs set up on the pale golden sand.
Candlelit dinner.
Accompanied by the sea breeze.
Lou Xi was somewhat surprised by Qin Mobai’s arrangement after the ordeal with Shen Youran’s illness, which had left her exhausted.
But all the exhaustion vanished upon seeing Qin Mobai’s surprise.
"I promised you a honeymoon; I must offer you some surprise," Qin Mobai said, seeing the happiness on Lou Xi’s face, knowing that everything he did was worth it.
