Chapter 438: Chapter 331 Qing Cheng (Please Subscribe)

After three hours of negotiation and compromise, Princess Mina and I finally reached an agreement, and then it was time for Chu Mo to keep his promise.

Chu Mo didn’t take Princess Mina to Tianxiang Garden or Jinmao Mansion. To the Gem Queen, both the opulent splendor of the seven-star Tianxiang Garden and the lofty grandeur of Jinmao Mansion, the tallest building in the Capital City, were nothing more than the most ordinary, the most common of things in her eyes.

She was accustomed to living in such luxury and high-end places, so to truly let the Princess experience the unique culture and atmosphere of Hua Country, they had to visit places she had never encountered before.

The crowded The Bund was somewhere she would certainly never set foot in the past, but it is the most famous place in the entire Capital City. The whole stretch of The Bund runs for one and a half kilometers, starting from Pudong River in the south with the western side being the concentration of old financial and foreign trade institutions of Capital City.

There stand 52 classical revival buildings of different styles on The Bund, known as the “Gallery of World Architecture” on The Bund. It is a symbol of Hua Country’s modern history and one of the landmarks of Capital City. In 1996, it was designated as the fourth batch of National Key Cultural Relics Protection Units by Hua Country.

...

Across the river from The Bund, in Pudong Lujiazui, stand iconic Capital City constructions such as the Pearl Tower, Jinmao Mansion, Financial Mansion, and Global Tower!

As the motorcade slowly stopped, a Caucasian bodyguard helped the two inside to open the door of the Lincoln car, and a blast of night breeze came through, giving one a refreshing sense of clarity.

Princess Mina, in a black V-neck gown, was dressed somewhat lightly, but she had just had some red wine, and her face was flushed and enchanting.

Chu Mo was the first to get out of the car. Then, he casually waited in front of the door, and when Princess Mina alighted, he gallantly took her delicate hand. The gorgeous Princess Mina smiled and nodded her thanks.

After the two got out of the car, Chu Mo looked at the dozens of bodyguards surrounding and guarding them and said with a smile,

“Princess, to experience the true cultural charm of Hua Country, having so many bodyguards following us is not suitable. We’ll pick two to accompany us closely, and the rest can protect from a distance!”

The radiant blonde in front of him chuckled and nodded. Then, she whispered a command to that same Caucasian bodyguard who had opened the car door for them just before. At the same time, Chu Mo nodded at Fan Gao.

As the two walked shoulder to shoulder towards The Bund, only Fan Gao and a tall Caucasian bodyguard followed them closely, while the rest of the dozens of bodyguards blended into the crowd. This made them less conspicuous.

Of course, even without the large entourage of bodyguards, with Mina’s beauty that could overthrow states and cities, added to her resplendent attire, the rate of turning heads on the street was still close to one hundred percent.

Chu Mo, dapper in his suit, was also quite handsome. As the two chatted and laughed strolling side by side, they appeared to onlookers as a stunning couple indeed.

“Princess Mina, have you been to Capital City before?”

In late November, especially by the riverside at night, gusts of cold wind continuously plunged down collars. If it weren’t for the fact that they had both drunk some red wine earlier to warm up, they would probably be shivering by now.

The only downside was that the clouds were thick tonight, and when looking up, the brilliant stars above were obscured. However, the high-rise buildings around them were dazzling, with lights so brilliant that they captured all attention.

“I’ve been to Hua Country four times before. Twice I went to Capital City, once to Xiang Jiang, once to West Lake. This is my first visit to Capital City, but I’ve long heard of this enchanting city and have been looking forward to it!”

As the most famous attraction of Capital City, The Bund was bustling with people. There were couples walking hand in hand, groups of friends, and foreigners who had traveled thousands of miles to visit.

Here one could often see blond-haired, blue-eyed Caucasians and dark-skinned Africans. However, no matter where the golden-haired Princess Mina went, her presence attracted all eyes.

By the river, ferries were docked, and sightseeing boats roamed the water. On the opposite side of the river, the three tall buildings of Capital City attracted everyone’s gaze.

When they reached a set of steps, Princess Mina by his side paused gently, then she looked curiously at a few young girls who were filming across the way.

Of course, they were not just taking commemorative photos like ordinary tourists. They had set up tripods and were shooting dance videos.

Three girls dressed coolly and exquisitely faced the camera phone, their movements uniform and synchronized, their dance poses exaggerated and sexy!

Chu Mo, who also stopped in his tracks, slightly hooked the corner of his mouth. He glanced at the blonde beside him and explained with a smile,

“They are live-streaming. In Hua Country, the live-streaming industry has boomed. Many outdoor broadcasters live-stream at famous tourist spots to attract viewers. So, don’t be surprised to see people singing or being cute to their phones on the streets—it’s their profession! They make a living from it!”

The princess Mina Gong beside him nodded slightly. She took a gentle breath and then spoke with a hint of emotion,

“They really are so free… not needing to care about others’ gazes, dancing if they want to, singing if they feel like it. Such a life must be full of color!”

Hearing this, Chu Mo simply curled the corner of his mouth again. The princess in front of him was clearly moved by the moment, and he didn’t say more to explain. Instead, he looked at his wristwatch and then said with a smile,

“Let’s wait here for a bit. There will be a spectacular performance soon!”

The blonde beside him did not say much. She and Chu Mo came to the riverside fence, where the two of them quietly gazed at the river in front of them and the dazzling lights across it.

After a while, when Chu Mo saw Mina’s lips turning slightly pale, he hesitated for a moment, then gently took off his own coat and draped it, still warm from his body, over her shoulders.

“Thank you!”

The blonde beamed a light smile, her stunning beauty infused with an enchanting charm that was addictive.

Another gust of cold wind blew, and Chu Mo, now only in his thin shirt, shivered slightly. But the cool wind also dispersed the ripples in his heart.

Taking his gaze back from the woman beside him, he continued with a smile,

“There will be a light show soon, which tells the century-long history of the Magic City. It’s divided into three chapters, depicting the city’s past, present, and future.

Miss Mina wishes to understand Hua Country, and the Magic City is also a microcosm of Hua Country. Here, Miss Mina might gain a deeper understanding of Hua Country’s culture…”

Before Chu Mo could finish speaking, a figure suddenly appeared beside them. A girl in a silk stocking dress appeared before them, her beautiful eyes staring straight at Chu Mo, her voice slightly dissatisfied,

“Hey, young man, don’t boast. There’s no light show today. We checked the information before we came, and there’s absolutely no show tonight.”

Chu Mo did not speak. He first observed the girl in front of him and noted that she was one of the three girls dancing earlier, posing no threat. He then immediately turned his head.

Sure enough, a few meters behind them, the bodyguard captain Fan Gao and a tall Caucasian bodyguard were striding towards them, and in the distant crowd, at least six or seven men in black were also running towards them.

If these bodyguards were to come closer, it might cause unnecessary commotion.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and an authoritative aura immediately emanated from him. He then shook his head, and the two men who had been walking towards them halted. Under Chu Mo’s stern gaze, the dozen or so bodyguards around them turned and melted into the crowd!

Only then did Chu Mo have the time to turn his attention back to the silk-stocking broadcaster in front of him.

But now, he noticed that the pretty girl in front of him had her eyes fixed intently on Mina Gong beside him.

In those beautiful orbs, fascination and intoxication were evident.
