Chapter 568: Chapter 568

Alder Locke exaggeratedly raised his hands to his head, in fact, Titus Zane wasn’t too accustomed to living here either, after all, the elders he grew up around were different, and staying together always felt restrained.

After thinking for a while, he nodded, "Alright, considering your sincerity, I’ll reluctantly accompany you outside for some fresh air."

"Really?" Alder Locke stopped in his tracks, his eyes filled with surprise, not expecting Titus Zane to agree so easily. After the surprise, he immediately dashed over and hugged Titus Zane, planting a quick kiss on him.

Titus Zane was unguarded and received a solid kiss from Alder Locke.

The cold touch on his cheek just as he was about to push him away, but Alder Locke had already let go first, stepping back and scratching his head with embarrassment, smiling, "Sorry, I was just too happy, got excited and forgot."

Looking at him, Titus Zane sternly reminded, "Alder Locke, we had an agreement, you can’t take advantage of me ."

"Oh come on, what era are we in that you’re still so petty, I just forgot myself because I was happy." Alder Locke grabbed Titus Zane’s shoulder in a brotherly manner, "If I wanted to take advantage, I would have kissed you on the lips. Stop worrying about it, let’s go, I’ll treat you tonight as an apology."

Pushing away Alder Locke’s hand from his shoulder with a heavy sigh, Titus Zane followed him back to get the car.

Alder Locke walked ahead with a carefree demeanor, yet a gleam flashed through his eyes.

Little Zhang is the personal driver and bodyguard assigned to the grandson by Samuel Zane. Although Little Zhang didn’t drive during the daytime when Alder Locke took Titus Zane out, he always secretly followed behind.

Now that it was evening, Samuel Zane was even more worried and directly instructed Little Zhang to drive them both.

The bars in Houhai were lined up one after another. The two had never been here before, so they randomly picked one and entered. Before stepping in, Alder Locke grabbed Titus Zane’s hand.

Titus Zane was about to refuse, but then he heard Alder Locke say, "This place is a mix of all sorts, better stick close to me so no bad guys think you’re single."

Seeing Alder Locke was serious, Titus Zane didn’t refuse.

Hand in hand, they entered the bar and found a corner to settle down. Alder Locke ordered a pitcher of beer, and they sipped on their beers while listening to the songs. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍

There were always plenty of dreamers drifting to Beijing, and on stage, a bearded man was playing guitar and singing a song with a deep and worldly tone.

"Do you sing?" Alder Locke suddenly turned his gaze towards Titus Zane, who shook his head, "No." She liked painting and listening to soothing music but had never formally sung a complete song.

"So, what can you do?" Alder Locke was about to drink his beer when he glanced at Titus Zane, set the bottle down with a teasing smile, "Painting? Spending all day in a studio facing a canvas is so boring. The world is so vast and fun, don’t you want to go out and see more?"

"Mind your own business." Titus Zane glared at Alder Locke, but his lips curved into a smile. In truth, changing perspectives and treating Alder Locke like a regular friend felt quite comfortable since he was great at making conversation.

As the heart-wrenching song on stage ended, the singer stood up and bowed to the audience while Alder Locke stood up and walked towards the stage.

Left behind was his long coat on the booth, himself in a brick-red sweater and black trousers, a simple attire. Perhaps due to his tall and lean build, he stood out among the other men in the bar, with an air of distinct prominence.

While Titus Zane was puzzled, Alder Locke had already reached the stage and said something to the Singer. Titus Zane only saw him slipping something into the Singer’s hand, after which the Singer took off his guitar.
