CH 6

On the evening of December 18, Luo Ning took the initiative to invite Qin Yize to meet at the private bakery outside the palace to discuss the detailed plan to be each other’s shield.

In the private room with good sound insulation, the warm yellow light shone on the two of them, and Luo Ning, who had an appointment with Qin Yize for a secret talk late at night, was quite excited about “discussing confidential matters”. He looked at the Alpha in front of him and said bluntly: “Yize, since we are going to be allies, I have to tell you my true identity first – in fact, I am the second prince of the empire and the only Omega prince of His Majesty.”

Qin Yize: “……”

When we first met, he directly said “I’m Omega”, which shocked Qin Yize enough. The second time they met, he actually blew his identity and said that he was His Royal Highness the Second Prince. The Omega in front of him really had the talent of “making one’s jaw drop with each sentence”.

Looking at Qin Yize’s stiff face, Luo Ning said sincerely, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hide it from you.”

Qin Yize stood up immediately, bowed and saluted: “Your Highness Second Prince.”

Luo Ning waved his hand and said: “Don’t be so restrained, I’m not used to you being like this.” Seeing the other party’s serious expression, Luo Ning had to explain softly: “I approached you because I really liked your acting skills, and later found that I could chat with you. I was worried that you would alienate me after knowing my identity, so I kept it a secret. I never put on the airs of a prince, and you don’t have to be under pressure when you get along with me. You… Are you still willing to recognize me as a friend??”

The corner of Qin Yize’s mouth lifted slightly when he met his expectant eyes: “Of course I do.”

Qin Yize was Luo Ning’s first Alpha friend after all, and Luo Ning didn’t want to make the relationship stiff, so he voluntarily confessed his identity. Fortunately, Qin Yize was very personable and didn’t seem to be angry with him?

Luo Ning asked nervously, “Are you really not angry?”

Qin Yize said lightly, “His Highness took the initiative to confess to me, and treats me as a friend. I have no reason to be angry.”

Only then did Luo Ning feel relieved, then he poured himself a cup of coffee, added two tablespoons of sugar, and said while stirring, “Actually, since the year I graduated, my father has been worrying about my marriage, and waiting for me to find someone. I have rejected him countless times, but this time it was a bit difficult, I told him that I had someone I liked according to your idea, but my royal father didn’t believe me at all, and insisted that I bring the person back to see him…”

Luo Ning took a sip of coffee, looked up at Qin Yize and said, “I also thought about it carefully before I decided to play this drama with you. Because, I have seen your acting skills with my own eyes, I think only you can do it. My father is very shrewd. So, I’m really going to trouble you this time.”

Qin Yize felt a lot of pressure: “Acting in front of His Majesty? Wouldn’t it be too bold?”

“It doesn’t matter.” Luo Ning was determined, as he said, “As long as the acting is good, my father would believe it and he will not urge me to meet those Alpha generals again. When that time comes, I will also accompany you home and help you hide from your parents. Wouldn’t that be the best of both worlds??”

Qin Yize gently rubbed the cup with his thumb and lowered his head thoughtfully: “The solution sounds feasible, but I’m afraid of any accidents. What if they believe we are lovers and urge us to have a wedding?”

Luo Ning smiled and said: “You are a star, I am the prince, our wedding can’t be done too hastily, and we can say that we are not in a hurry to get married, we want to get along for a while and cultivate more feelings – we can just tell our parents this. They should understand it.”

Qin Yize looked at his confident look and couldn’t help asking: “Are you sure?”

Luo Ning nodded immediately: “I’m sure. Royal Father is not a tyrannical person, he can still be talked to.”

Qin Yize always felt that things would not be so simple, but this was indeed the best way at the moment.

In the past few days, his mother’s life-threatening serial phone calls had been non-stop. He was also very troubled. He was even thinking about finding an actor to pretend to be a couple to deal with it. An agreement was thus reached logically.

Luo Ning was a prince, and this status could really suppress his family temporarily, and he was a member of the entertainment industry, so the royal family would also have to take his reputation into consideration.    

Thinking of this, Qin Yize readily accepted Luo Ning’s proposal, raised his glass and said, “Your Highness, it would be a pleasure to cooperate.”

Luo Ning also clinked glasses with him: “Happy cooperation!”

All in one drink. Only then did Luo Ning put down the wine glass and said with a smile: “You should call me Xiao Luo, I should get used to listening to it. We will be allies on the same front in the future, so there is no need to be so polite.”

There were indeed no prince’s airs. Qin Yize couldn’t help but smile and said, “Xiao Luo, I didn’t expect that the person who talks to me every day about mystery novels is actually His Royal Highness the Second Prince.”

Qin Yize suddenly felt that Luo Ning had a pretty good temperament. His Royal Highness, the second prince, was as good as stated and had a gentle personality. If his mother knew that his “lover” was His Royal Highness the Second Prince, she would probably drop her jaw in shock, right?

….

After leaving the bakery, Qin Yize did not go home directly, but went to the bookstore like last time.

He had already finished reading the book Luo Ning bought him last time, so he wanted to buy two new novels this month as a gift for Luo Ning. Of course, Luo Ning liked this gift very much and accepted it happily: “Thank you.”

“You said that we are friends, you are welcome.” Qin Yize said in a gentle voice, “Go back quickly, or His Majesty will be worried.”

“Then let’s keep in touch, I will find you if there is any news from my father’s side and then we can discuss.”

“Okay.” Qin Yize watched Luo Ning leave before driving home.

After returning to the villa, Qin Yize had just opened the door when he heard the roar of Li Xin, his manager: “Qin Yize, how many times do you have to be photographed! The same place, the same person, how can you do it? Don’t you have a long memory?!”

The familiar intelligent light-brain flew in the air, Qin Yize quickly reached out to catch it, then he opened it and took a look –

Today’s headline was: Qin Yize went on date with a secret lover late at night, look at their gentle demeanor and intimate actions!

In the photo, he and Luo Ning were standing under the warm yellow street lamp. He was giving Luo Ning two books with a smile on his face, and the look in his eyes was really gentle. This time, it was the same shooting angle again. His face was clearly photographed under the illumination of the street light, while Luo Ning’s face was in the shadow of the back light, so he couldn’t be seen clearly.

There were tens of thousands of comments under the post: “Just looking at the height and body shape, it’s the same person from last time!” “It seems that Qin Yize has a deep relationship with this person, and he will risk being photographed so late. Doesn’t he think it is dangerous to go out on a date?” “It’s so sweet, it smells of dog food!” “Is that person holding books? Last time Qin Yize seemed to be holding books too!” “Sending books is just a cover up, dating is the purpose!” “When will you two get married, and when will you have a baby?”

“…”

Qin Yize looked at these comments and felt as if an electric drill was stirring in his head. He put down his light brain with a headache and frowned, “Why? Isn’t it too much of a coincidence? We encountered the paparazzi again?”

Li Xin rolled his eyes fiercely and said, “After the last scandal, I went to check, and they told me that it was rumored some time ago that star Xiao Zhuo moved to the villa area over there. Therefore, recently there have been paparazzi squatting for him every day, trying to catch him and find evidence of him stepping on two boats. In the end, you were lucky, you slammed into them twice in a row and provided the paparazzi with incendiary information, those paparazzi are probably going to die of joy!”

In this way, he got shot while lying down.

The paparazzi originally squatted waiting for Xiao Zhuo’s gossip in that street, but instead of catching Xiao Zhuo, they took pictures of him and Luo Ning twice in a row. Qin Yize had no choice but to frown and send a text message to Luo Ning: “It’s another gossip piece, I won’t respond, so don’t mind too much.”

Unexpectedly, Luo Ning was not angry, but said happily: “It doesn’t matter, this is also a solid proof of our ‘private dating’, with these scandals, the elders are more likely to believe that we are lovers, and the implementation of the plan will be smoother!”

Qin Yize was stunned: “You are still so happy after being photographed by the paparazzi?”

Luo Ning said: “Think about never being pushed to go on a blind date again, once and for all, don’t you feel happy ^_^”

Qin Yize looked at the crooked smiling face he sent, and he couldn’t help chuckling softly, as he replied. At this moment, his mother Yu Lan sent another video call request, Qin Yize answered helplessly and said, “Mom, you want to ask me about my photos? Right?”

Yu Lan said with a smile: “Since you entered the entertainment industry, your mother has been following those entertainment gossip forums every day, and of course I saw the scandal immediately. Tell me, how are you and your lover doing? He is the one with you in the photo, right?”

Qin Yize nodded: “Well, it’s him. We’re fine, I’ll bring him back to see you another day.”

Yu Lan’s eyes glittered excitedly: “Really? What dishes does he like? I’ll make him a delicious table myself!”

Qin Yize said, “He likes sweets.”

Yu Lan got busy searching for dessert recipes, and Qin Yize hung up the phone with a sigh of relief. Li Xin looked at the lightly raised corners of his lips, almost thought he was dazzled, then he stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes forcefully, and said in disbelief, “Yize, have you really fallen in love recently?”

Qin Yize raised his eyebrows and said, “What do you think?”

Li Xin jumped up from the sofa and rushed in front of him with a pale face: “Don’t scare me! You are at the peak of your career now, you can’t ruin your future on impulse! It is very clear that once a male god character like you has a lover, you will lose a lot of fans…”

Qin Yize interrupted his agent’s nagging: “Don’t worry, I’m not in a relationship, it is to deal with my mother. That’s it.”

Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself: Qin Yize is still very measured and will definitely not mess around.

He could never have imagined that his own artist would not fall in love, but his own artist… will get married directly in the near future!
