Chapter 814 - 311: Tang Yan and Yang Mi Want to Board the Luxury Cruise (2)
Yang Mi could only cast an apologetic glance at Sun Dasheng, promising to make it up to him when they returned.Oh, women!
Once the two tidied up, they hurried off to shop at the mall.
Indeed, this place hosts a global marketplace for luxury goods.
This was Tang Yan’s secret ace to coax Yang Mi over.
It hit her right on her soft spot.
Elsewhere, gathering all worldwide luxury brands in one spot isn’t easy, even in a metropolis as grand as Shanghai City, where several countries’ luxury brands haven’t established a presence.
But this place is different; it’s fully stocked with luxury items and offers tax-free treatment, making shopping here much cheaper than back home.
Though celebrities aren’t lacking money, women get excited over bargains regardless of their wealth.
Bargain hunting must be a woman’s nature.
While they were out shopping, Sun Dasheng wandered around casually.
After just a few steps, he was stopped by a blonde Big Ocean Horse holding a cup of red wine, eyes dreamy and wanting to have a go with him.
Sun Dasheng swiftly pushed her away.
It’s not that he’s being coy; some AC should not be messed with.
Damn it, the scent of leaves, scram.
Europe and America certainly can’t compare to home in this regard.
Almost feels like the roles are reversed.
The Great Qing Empire’s old empress would probably be flabbergasted a century ago, eh?
What?
We won the Opium War?
Europe and America became the Great Qing Empire?
After a dull round about, Sun Dasheng decided to go back to sleep.
"Oppa, is that you?" Suddenly, a somewhat familiar voice called out.
Sun Dasheng turned his head, oh, what a coincidence, isn’t that the Korean celebrity IU, Lee Ji-eun, with whom he had a brief affair?
Beside her stood an elegant beauty, none other than Kim Mi-hee.
"Hey, how come you’re here too?" Sun Dasheng walked over to greet them.
Seeing him act so politely, Lee Ji-eun discontentedly came over, hugged his arm, affectionately rubbed her head against him, and said, "Oppa forgot about us? Leaving us there and never contacting us?"
Kim Mi-hee also embraced his other arm, acting coy, "Oppa mustn’t be a heartbreaker; he must have been overwhelmed with work and didn’t have time to visit IU and me, right?"
"Uh... really?" Sun Dasheng couldn’t tell if he actually forgot them.
It seems like he did, but the sight of them brings back memories.
How does one count this?
"Oppa, let’s go for a drink. There’s a pretty good bar here; let us take you there." Then, flanked on both sides, they escorted him over.
The bar’s decor was quite nice, though its European style made him uneasy.
But having two beauties drinking with him made it quite acceptable.
Women from Korea are indeed avid drinkers.
Several bottles of cognac down, yet they remained unfazed.
"Drinking straight isn’t fun; let’s play some games, Oppa!" IU suggested.
Kim Mi-hee was also eager to try, "Sure, what should we play?"
"Our drinking games, Oppa won’t know them, so let’s play the simplest rock-paper-scissors." IU eyed Sun Dasheng.
Sun Dasheng shrugged indifferently, "Whatever you want; I’m up for it."
"Really?" IU’s face lit up with surprise.
Although that cheeky craft of Koreans looks flashy, it’s all borrowed from China.
What wouldn’t he know?
The group played games and drank considerable amounts more.
Just then, the bar was suddenly filled with the melodious sound of piano music.
Sun Dasheng frowned, "Isn’t this supposed to be a quiet bar? Why is someone playing the piano?"
This bar is akin to the quiet ones back home, devoid of those noisy DJs spinning music for dancing.
They have similar ones on the ship, but one must go to a different bar.
"No idea; it’s our first time encountering this. Last time here, there wasn’t." Kim Mi-hee explained.
Looking over, a piano intended for decoration was occupied by a gentleman, from which elegant notes resonated.
In no time, the man stopped his fingers, rose, and apologized to those around, "Sorry to disturb, today is my wife and I’s anniversary; she wanted to hear the song our hearts met with, so I borrowed this place to play a tune for her. Sorry for the interruption, your bills tonight are on me."
Several whistles directed at him arose from the bar.
Not many though, as the clientele here are wealthy influential figures, not minding the tab. But since he apologized sincerely, no one made things difficult for him.
"Wow! How extravagant!" Women can’t resist such romantic scenes.
Stars literally sparkled in the eyes of IU and Kim Mi-hee.
Then their gaze settled on Sun Dasheng beside them.
Sun Dasheng remarked, "What are you guys doing? You want me to go play a tune or something?"
"Can you, Oppa?" IU’s eyes filled with longing.
"Oppa, if you play a tune, IU and I are all yours tonight." Kim Mi-hee teased him.
Oh?
Now, that’s intriguing.
But instead of rashly rushing to play the piano like the previous person,
Sun Dasheng approached the bar owner, amicably discussed to gain his consent, and after the owner addressed the other patrons for their approval,
Only then did Sun Dasheng head over to play the piano.
The performance was quite skillful, surpassing the previous man.
His performance was good even compared to professionals.
Now, instead of opposing, the bar patrons attentively listened, akin to being at a formal music concert.
The tune concluded.
Applause arose around them, someone calling out, "Are you a music master? Can you leave a card?"
Finding the place unpleasant, he promptly led IU and Kim Mi-hee away.
"Oops, didn’t think we’d cause trouble for Oppa." IU playfully stuck out her tongue, offering him an apology.
Kim Mi-hee added, "Who knew Oppa had such talent and skill, it’s not our fault, right? Oppa!"
That playful charm, truly overwhelming.
The unique allure of Korean women indeed stands apart.
This is his sentiment as he exited from the ladies’ room.
Looks like the ’Golden House to Keep the Beauty’ scheme in Korea couldn’t be delayed.
Otherwise, these fine treasures would be wasted.
If I don’t gather them, would they become spoils for American soldiers?
Returning to his room, he first took a shower.
Then he tossed his previous clothes, changing into a new set.
Well, the perfume scent was completely gone.
When Tang Yan and Yang Mi returned loaded with shopping bags, Sun Dasheng was cozy in his room gaming.
"Wow! Honey, why are you here gaming alone, didn’t you go out to have some fun?" Yang Mi instantly felt guilty.
Tang Yan retorted, "Who knows if he went out on a wild tour or not?"
Sun Dasheng glared at her, "Do I have a grudge against you?"
Tang Yan glared back, "I do have a grudge against you!"
"Gosh, you two bicker like old enemies, stop for my sake, please." Yang Mi quickly separated them.
Previously she’d suspected they might be up to something behind her back, now she’s sure they aren’t.
They’re born adversaries, constantly quarreling, how could anything happen?
No way! Absolutely no way!
"Honey, I haven’t forgotten about you; here are things I got for you, suits, casual wear, and even a watch."
Yang Mi proudly displayed some items from the shopping bags in front of Sun Dasheng.
In that moment, he was a bit touched.
Tang Yan chided him, "Don’t know what luck you’ve struck to find yourself such a good woman like Mimi, all her purchases cost her quite a bit. She barely spends like this for herself."
"Geez, Tang Tang, I told you not to mention that." Though Yang Mi verbally complained, inside she was delighted.
Oh, what a great friend, knowing just how to give me support!
Sun Dasheng, however, was bewilderedly looking at her, "Do you know her card balance with ten figures was pocket money I gave her?"
If spent entirely on luxury goods, this would empty many stores, right?
