Chapter 577: Beer Barbecue
"Excuse me... Are you an international boy band? What's the name of your group? I'll support you."
The bustling food street, where an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl with long hair, her face flushed with shyness, approached the group. The bodyguard behind her was about to step forward to stop her, but Ross, the heir of the Geng Pan family, waved him off with a gesture.
With his height of nearly six foot three, blond hair and blue eyes, Geng Pan, who smiled as warmly as the sun, approached the long-haired girl gently. In fluent Hua Country language, he said:
"We are a newly debuted group, and we haven't decided on a name yet. I wonder if the beautiful lady could help us come up with one?"
Geng Pan was obviously trying to tease the adorable girl in front of him. His blue eyes gazed directly at her, seemingly holding the galaxies in their depths, which were enough to captivate anyone. Coupled with his more than 90% handsome face and his genteel demeanor, the long-haired girl gulped down her saliva fiercely.
Her cute action of swallowing made the gentlemen nearby all smile. At this moment, also with blond hair and blue eyes, but carrying a more mature and stable air, Prince Maierxun of Britain, with his not-so-fluent Hua Country language, teased:
"Miss, you haven't told us what our group's name should be yet!"
Hearing this, the cute eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl thought seriously for a moment before her face lit up with excitement as she said:
"How about calling it the Sweet Honey Band?"
As the words fell, the long-haired girl seemed to realize she had chosen a rather common name, but before she could think to change it, Geng Pan, with a radiant smile, extended his hand, and the girl, somewhat foolishly, high-fived him. Geng Pan then said with a grin:
"Then, we shall be called the Sweet Honey Band from now on. Please keep supporting us."
Under the girl's stunned gaze, Chu Mo and his friends walked away talking and laughing. Meanwhile, a group of three or four young girls, all around eighteen or nineteen and probably students from nearby, rushed towards the long-haired girl and began chattering excitedly together.
After this little interlude, the atmosphere among Chu Mo and his companions became even more harmonious.
"Chu, I really think we could form a band. I'll be the face of the group, Prince Maierxun could be the lead vocalist, and you and the two Princes can take care of the instruments. I'm sure our Sweet Honey Band will be extremely popular," said Geng Pan, his face always brimming with a smile. As the heir to the Ross family, he could have whatever he wanted in America, but he truly lacked confidants to talk to from his heart. Despite a lack of shortage of beautiful women around him, they were all attracted by his status, and to talk of genuine feelings, that was really too much to hope for.
Geng Pan, who spent every day striving to inherit the family business and living amidst various schemes and plots, hadn't had a heartfelt laugh like this in a long time.
In the company of Chu Mo and the others, where there were no direct interests at stake and more of a comradeship, without competition and with identities not vastly different, they could truly blend in like ordinary friends, laughing heartily without a care in the world.
Prince Maierxun of Britain, seemingly more humorous, spoke in his slightly awkward Hua Country language, which he had tried hard to learn, so although his words sounded a bit raw, they were still understandable if one listened carefully. With a relaxed expression and wearing a smile, Maierxun said:
"Ross, what you don't know is that Chu actually sings quite well. I think our band's lead vocalist should be Chu, especially since we will be facing the Hua Country market. In the Hua Country entertainment industry, Chu is a godfather-level figure. With him as the lead vocalist, our band could definitely become the world's number one."
Awalid and Ben Hesed were a bit more reserved, which was related to their personalities and also due to language barriers. Without a good grasp of the Hua Country language, they had to rely on Tina's translations to keep up with the conversation between Chu Mo, Geng Pan, and Maierxun, which led to slower reactions and made them seem more silent.
However, both of their handsome faces were smiling, clearly cherishing this rare opportunity to relax with peers of the same age.
"Mr. Chu, Prince Ben Hesed says he has a band in Dubai that consists entirely of beautiful women. If you're interested, next time you visit, he can arrange for his band to perform exclusively for you," translated the maid Tina after Ben Hesed had spoken.
Upon hearing this, Chu Mo's mouth curved into a slight smile as he led the way, replying with a smile:
"Please thank the Prince for his kind offer, then it's a deal."
Tina whispered into Ben Hesed's ear, and he immediately agreed with a big laugh.
As they all talked and laughed, Chu Mo suddenly stopped in front of a barbecue restaurant. He had visited this place with his close friend Li Fei a few times before, and the braised fish there was absolutely delicious, a must-order every time.
Chu Mo made a welcoming gesture and then led the way into the bustling restaurant first.
The restaurant had two floors, with private rooms upstairs, but to experience the culture of Hua Country's food stalls, they didn't specifically ask for a private room upstairs but instead sat with the Princes in the main hall.
