Chapter 467 - 468 Fireworks
"He never was as good as I am." Qin Mobai said casually.
Qin Mobai leaned forward, his hands propped on the table.
This brought Qin Mobai closer to Lou Xi, the strong scent of male hormones wafting to the tip of Lou Xi’s nose.
Whether it was due to the alcohol she had consumed that night or the proximity of Qin Mobai, Lou Xi simply felt a bit hot all over.
She met Qin Mobai’s fiery gaze with a gentle smile.
Just as Qin Mobai finished speaking, from the seaside, fireworks suddenly burst forth - not the kind that soared into the sky during the New Year.
Just the one-meter-high ones, made even more beautiful against the night backdrop.
Because Qin Mobai knew, Lou Xi liked fireworks.
And Qin Mobai preferred the eternal Lou Xi over fireworks.
"So beautiful!" Lou Xi’s gaze was drawn to the fireworks, she involuntarily stood up from her chair, wanting to get closer to the fireworks.
See, she must have been drunk, that’s why she wanted to get closer to the fire.
At first, Qin Mobai didn’t notice, he lazily propped his chin with one hand, watching Lou Xi in her fitted dress as she lifted her skirt and moved ahead.
At that moment, Qin Mobai understood why the romantic scholar chose beauty over kingdoms.
Such a wonderful time and scenery, without a beloved companion, it’s all a waste.
A few seconds later, Qin Mobai noticed Lou Xi seemed drunk, her steps faltering, heading straight towards the fireworks.
Qin Mobai immediately rose from his chair, took a few strides to Lou Xi’s side, grasped her wrist, and pulled her into his embrace.
Lou Xi turned, colliding into Qin Mobai’s firm chest, momentarily disoriented.
With the strong aftereffects of red wine, Lou Xi’s alcohol tolerance wasn’t particularly high, this moment hit her hard, making things unclear.
She covered her nose, mumbling, "You hurt my nose, good thing it’s real, otherwise..."
Otherwise, it would be crooked.
The slightly tipsy Lou Xi had a flushed face, her gaze languid, she steadied herself by placing a hand around Qin Mobai’s waist.
Qin Mobai took a sharp breath in, he had warned Lou Xi earlier not to drink outside, precisely because her drunken demeanor was truly uncontrollable.
"Alright, let’s go back." Qin Mobai said in a low voice, wanting to quickly take Lou Xi away from this place.
"No, the fireworks aren’t finished yet!" Lou Xi pointed at the still bursting fireworks, acting coy.
"They’re done."
He placed his hand over Lou Xi’s eyes.
Instantly, everything around turned pitch black.
"Mo Bai, I can’t see!" She waved her hands frantically, just like someone who had lost their sight.
Qin Mobai pressed down her wildly waving hands, then lifted her horizontally and headed straight towards the seaside villa they had rented earlier!
