Chapter 117 The Most Romantic Thing (2/2)
Mo Kun felt the foie gras melt in his mouth like cheese, as if it was spreading from his tongue to his whole body. The experience felt like taking a comfortable bubble bath in a warm tub.
In the afternoon, they took a walk on Champs Elysees and then headed to the Lido Evening Show in the evening.
The Lido Show, which was one of the top three shows in Paris, was equal to the Moulin Rouge Show.
However, the Moulin Rouge was more popular among people from Z Country, because of Nicole Kidman’s famous movie.
People in France said, “Without Lido, there is no nightlife in Paris.”
Thanks to its unique visual impact, luxurious dance effects and sexy dancing girls, the Lido Show attracted 450,000 people every year, including superstars like Elton John and Arnold Schwarzenegger, as well as Princess Diana, Mrs. Thatcher and other famous people.
After 100 years of development, the Lido Show had formed its own style.
The performers had to be in good shape. The actresses were over 1.78 meters tall. Visually, they were over 2 meters tall, as they were wearing 10-centimeter heels and a 20-centimeter headdress that weighed 10 kilos. The actors were no less than 1.83 meters tall.
In addition to their height, they had to be professional dancers.
The Lido was famous for its luxury. Most of the guests came in formal wear.
“Are we dressed too casually?” Lord Mo Kun asked Long Xi.
“It’s okay, just suit yourself,” she answered.
The night show started.
The two watched the wonderful show while drinking colorful cocktails.
During the magic show, a magician dressed as a clown played poker. He wanted to invite two people from the audience for an interactive act. Many people were eager to try and raised their hands.
Mo Kun and Long Xi were lucky enough to be chosen. They walked to the stage hand in hand.
“Are you two a couple?” the magician asked as he looked at them.
The two of them looked at each other. Long Xi shook her head, while Mo Kun nodded.
Then, they pretended to be a little surprised at each other’s reaction.
The magician smiled and asked again, “Yes or no?”
This time, Long Xi nodded, while Mo Kun shook his head.
Their awkwardness made the crowd laugh out loud.
Two kitty girls pushed out a stainless steel shelf that was about one meter high. There was a large brown heart-shaped box on it. The box, which was made of wood, was about one meter tall. The two girls opened the box. Inside, it was empty and painted white.
The magician asked Mo Kun and Long Xi to enter the box. Long Xi smiled and told Mo Kun, “After you.”
“Ladies first,” Mo Kun replied.
He helped Long Xi climb into the box by using a ladder. Then, he went in himself. The two squatted face to face.
The magician suggested that they hug each other.
The audience laughed again.
They followed the instruction and hugged each other.
The two kitty girls put on the lid and tied a bow on the box with red ribbon.
The magician seized one end of the box and pushed it hard. The box span in circles quickly. The connection between the box and the stainless steel bracket was a custom design. The box span twice and then slowly stopped.
The two girls untied the ribbon and opened the box. Long Xi stood up and waved at the audience, but Mo Kun had disappeared.
Where was Mo Kun? The magician put on a puzzled expression. Long Xi shrugged, showing the audience that she didn’t know. Then, she pretended to cry. The audience laughed.
“Let’s find this lovely girl her boyfriend. Is he hidden among you?” the magician asked the audience.
Just as the audience started searching around, the magician suddenly pointed at the door, which opened. Mo Kun ran in with a bouquet of champagne roses. The audience gave its warmest applause.
Mo Kun walked on the stage, knelt down on one knee, and gave her the roses. Long Xi smiled and accepted the flowers.
They thanked the audience and then left.
They also received two small gifts from Lido for their cooperation.
