Chapter 1313: He was Doing Fine, and Looking More Handsome
My hands slipped by accident.” Xu Zhengxuan was moaning in pain when she grabbed his wrist.
Mo Jin threw a pillow in his face; guys were shameless, whatever their age.
At that very moment, Mo Liuxi came in carrying several shopping bags.
Mo Jin finally let go of Xu Zhengxuan and walked over to him. “What’s in the bags? Clothes?
“Yeah.” Mo Liuxi was changing out of his shoes. “I’m flying to Italy for Milan Fas.h.i.+on Week.”
“Why don’t you just shop in Milan?” Mo Jin asked. “Men’s fas.h.i.+ons are a lot nicer there. You’re going to the film festival, aren’t you? You should wear the latest designs. The company isn’t sponsoring anything?”
“The sponsored clothes were sent to Italy. I need an airport outfit for tomorrow,” said Mo Liuxi casually.
Xu Zhengxuan gave him a look and said, “You bought so much just for tomorrow? Is that really necessary?”
“Yes.” Mo Liuxi brought his purchases upstairs.
After a while, he asked for Mo Jin’s opinion, “What do you think about this suit?”
“It’s okay.” Mo Jin’s expression was a bit weird now too.
After trying on a dozen outfits or so, he asked again, “Which ones do you think look best on me?”
Mo Jin was trying to suppress a giggle. It was the first time she’d seen him so preoccupied with his appearance. He’d never been particularly concerned about his style or clothes before. “Are you meeting someone important tomorrow?”
“No.”
“Someone who abandoned you…”
“…”
Mo Liuxi was tight-lipped. Grimacing, he said, “Don’t spout nonsense. I just heard there are going to be a lot of reporters at the airport.”
“Go for the army green one then,” Mo Jin said casually. She couldn’t be bothered to expose him. Her son was a grown man. It was normal for him to act this way in front of someone he liked.
Mo Liuxi picked up the army green set and looked at himself in the mirror, nodding approvingly. “Yeah. The outfit’s bangin’.”
He knew he would probably be seeing Yan Su again the next day. Although he had no plans of reconciling with her, not ever, he had to let her know he was doing fine without her. And he was even better looking now, too.
He was going to let her know she’d made a grave mistake, the stupidest decision of her life.
As for s.h.i.+ Xiang, he had to outs.h.i.+ne him in every way and at every moment.
Mo Jin stared at her son from the side. She noticed his expression turning darker and felt a little intimidated by this.
…
Ten o’clock at the airport.
Mo Liuxi met up with Li Ming after crossing the checkpoint.
The VIP lounge was filled with people from the production team. A bunch of them had worked hard for four months shooting the film. Naturally, they had all gotten a lot closer after spending so much time together.
Everyone was thrilled to be going to Venice for five days.
When Mo Liuxi sauntered into the lounge, everyone was eager to greet him. The co-director, Lu Tao, said teasingly, “Great outfit. I get it that you want to look good. We don’t mind but give some consideration to the male actors. You’re stealing their thunder.”
“I thought you said to dress formally?” Mo Liuxi looked around the table and asked casually, “Not everyone is here yet, right? Where’s Ji Nuanyi and s.h.i.+ Xiang?” “They’re the A-list celebrities. I’m sure they have a busy schedule,” Lu Tao said. “We’ll be heading over first. They’ll meet us in Venice tomorrow.”
Mo Liuxi scowled.
Lu Tao felt a chill run down his spine. He couldn’t help but recall the various unpleasant incidents between Mo Liuxi and s.h.i.+ Xiang during filming.
“Lu, come on. Let’s get ready to board.” Li Ming walked over and patted him on the shoulder.
