Chapter 609: 608 Show-off Love Tribe

Qin Mu invited Mo Xiuchen, Wen Ran, and others to a private dining restaurant, membership-based with exorbitant prices.

But not just any rich man could afford it. Nouveau rich had no place here, as its VIPs were all true members of the old and well-known families.

It was just a dinner, yet it was so stringent. It wasn’t just about eating; it was about flaunting status.

It was only once inside that they realized the decorations and service were all top-notch, different from some high-end restaurants that only used luxury to decorate themselves with tacky colors.

This restaurant, however, was imbued with an ancient elegance and a sense of home. These two contrasting styles were cleverly combined by the designer, making them fit perfectly without feeling awkward.

The dishes and flavors were impeccable. Each one was delicately crafted, evoking the feeling of dining in an ancient royal court. Each person had a waiter standing by their side.

“Let them leave.”

Mo Xiuchen glanced at the standing servers and mentioned to Qin Mu. Qin Mu gestured, and all the waiters bowed synchronously, said ‘Enjoy your meal,’ and left the private room.

As the private room door was closed from the outside, Wen Ran blinked her eyes in awe, “A City is indeed different. The feeling of dining here is unlike any other in all my twenty odd years of dining experiences.”

“Yes, no wonder it’s so expensive here. Whether the decorations on the wall or the floor, or those on the tables, all of them are quite valuable.”

Bai Xiaoxiao sighed deeply. They were not people inexperienced in worldly matters and often frequented high-end restaurants and private clubs in G City but none came close to this private dining restaurant.

A seemingly ordinary-named restaurant served dishes at sky-high prices, yet they also gave off the feeling of being ordinary despite their high cost.

“Ranran, eat more.”

Mo Xiuchen placed some crab meat in Wen Ran’s bowl. At this, Luo Haofeng followed suit and began serving Bai Xiaoxiao. However, she refused it all, “Just eat your own food, don’t worry about me.”

“Bai Xiaoxiao, how many days are you on business in A City?”

After swallowing his food, Qin Mu glanced at Mo Xiuchen, who was attentive to Wen Ran, and casually asked.

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled and replied, “Five to seven days.”

Then, she immediately turned to look at Wen Ran, “Ranran, you should hang here a few days longer. Let’s go back to G City together after I’m finished with my stuff here, okay?”

Wen Ran was about to respond, but Mo Xiuchen spoke for her, “No problem, Ranran and I will stay here a few more days, and we will go back to G City when you are done with your work.”

Mo Xiuchen pulled out a tissue, intending to wipe a bit of leftover sauce on Wen Ran’s lips, drawing a teasing whistle from Luo Haofeng.

“Xiuchen, could you save your affectionate exchanges for when we’re back at the hotel? Let us single folks eat in peace?”

Qin Mu smirked casually, “Aren’t you making a significant effort to join the Show-off Love Tribe yourself?”

Once Qin Mu finished speaking, Bai Xiaoxiao, sitting across from them, again started coughing violently. Luo Haofeng immediately began patting Bai Xiaoxiao on the back, with the other hand offering her a glass of water, “Xiaoxiao, have some water.”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s face turned red from the coughing, but she managed to calm down after drinking the water that Luo Haofeng offered.

Wen Ran and Mo Xiuchen exchanged a glance, then turned to look at Bai Xiaoxiao and Luo Haofeng. Qin Mu’s smile deepened a bit, and he elegantly took another bite of food.

Luo Haofeng has had feelings for Bai Xiaoxiao for some time. If he could be with her, he would be very happy. And seeing all his friends happy in their relationships is also a joy of his.

Bai Xiaoxiao finally stopped coughing. Upon raising her head, she saw their meaningful glances at her and Luo Haofeng. Her face, already flushed from the coughing, turned even redder. She realized Luo Haofeng’s hand was still on her back and froze. She wanted him to remove his hand, but feared it could be awkward if she outspokenly asked him to.

As an experienced player in love games, Luo Haofeng saw Bai Xiaoxiao’s shyness, awkwardness, and even mild anger and hesitation all in one glance. He withdrew his hand and swiftly changed the topic, asking:

“Wen Ran, I know a great beauty salon here. You and Xiaoxiao should give it a try if you have time.”

Mo Xiuchen frowned at Luo Haofeng’s words, looking slightly displeased.

The beauty salon Luo Haofeng mentioned was the one he had discussed with him. Luo Haofeng’s original mission in A City involved the salon, yet he was now suggesting Bai Xiaoxiao and Wen Ran go there.

He didn’t want Ranran to go to the salon. Even though he didn’t have any evidence, he had already associated Liao Dongxing and Fu Jingyi. Considering that Fu Jingyi had caused so much suffering for him and Ranran, he couldn’t let her go there and attract their attention.

Wasn’t it like sending sheep into the tiger’s mouth?

Taken aback by Mo Xiuchen’s cold stare, Luo Haofeng chuckled, adding on, “Xiuchen, if you’re worried about Wen Ran, we can go too. Xiaoxiao has no arrangements this afternoon. Let’s go after lunch. I’ve heard that they offer a variety of services.”

“You’re quite familiar with A City, huh? And what do you mean by ‘a variety of services’? Are you implying some ulterior services?”

Wen Ran laughed as she looked at Luo Haofeng. She was intentionally misconstruing his words. Sure enough, Bai Xiaoxiao was quick to change her expression as she looked at Luo Haofeng in suspicion.

Shaken, he said, “Wen Ran, you’re thinking about it in the wrong way. I’m not referring to the services you’re thinking of.”

Wen Ran giggled, “What’s the wrong way can I think about? Oh, what kind of services do you think I’m thinking about?”

“Yeah, you’re the one with a dirty mind. Ranran is simple. How could she think anything wrong? Luo Haofeng, could it be that you often go to enjoy the ‘services’ you mentioned?”

Bai Xiaoxiao and Wen Ran truly made a good pair of sisters; their unified front nearly made Luo Haofeng cry.

Given a different time and place, he wouldn’t be reacting like this. However, the woman sitting in front of him was someone he liked.

Though he wasn’t a playboy, he had been in several relationships in the past. This made him feel a little guilty when facing Bai Xiaoxiao.

Now, as she made these suggestions, he was reminded of his crazy past. Being someone who was ordinarily eloquent, he was speechless, completely taken aback by their leading conversation.

Mo Xiuchen and Qin Mu couldn’t help but laugh softly, pulling up a smile on the corner of their mouth. They just watched without helping, indicating they were enjoying the show. They had no intentions to assist him at all.

Nor could they be blamed for not helping. Under the circumstances, there was no way they could assist. They all loved Wen Ran, openly or secretly, making her the woman of their hearts. And with Bai Xiaoxiao’s ambiguous relationship with Luo Haofeng, the best bet was to be a spectator, nothing else.
