"You fellow, you're not still eavesdropping on our conversation, are you? You old scoundrel, you're eavesdropping even here!" Dongfang Bai seemed to know it all along, and continued to berate Zhao Yuanchao without restraint.
"Alright, alright, I admit I was wrong. Don't worry, I'll tell you both your missions tomorrow morning. Also, I've sent you a bottle of wine. It should be arriving soon, consider it an apology." With that, Zhao Yuanchao hung up the phone.
"A bottle of good wine?" Dongfang Bai's eyes lit up instantly.
He and Zhao Yuanchao were old acquaintances. Generally speaking, if Zhao Yuanchao really sent over a bottle of good wine, it would indeed be good wine, and the kind he liked.
He wasn't a big fan of white wine. To be precise, as he got older, he started focusing on his health and had long since stopped drinking strong liquor. Of course, he would still have a glass when necessary.
On normal days, he preferred drinking red wine. Although it was an imported beverage, it was indeed milder and more suitable for an old man like him.
Soon, there was a knock on the door.
"Great-Grandpa, someone asked me to deliver a bottle of wine to you."
"Quick, quick, bring it here!"
Dongfang Bai said with great joy. With a flick of his hand, the door opened, and the bottle of wine flew into his hand. He couldn't be bothered with Dongfang Yuebai, who had just spoken.
Seeing Dongfang Yuebai, Lin Xiao also flicked his hand, and a surge of true qi made Dongfang Yuebai, who was about to leave, turn back.
"Drinking, it's more fun together." Lin Xiao said.
"You kid, this is the wine Zhao Yuanchao sent me as an apology. I didn't say I'd drink it now!" Dongfang Bai said, and with a clap of his hand, he removed the cork from the bottle.
"I believe Senior Dongfang wouldn't be stingy with sharing your favorite good wine with us two juniors." Lin Xiao could tell that this bottle of wine was not from the luxury brands he recognized, and there wasn't even a label on it.
He was quite curious, what kind of red wine could make Dongfang Bai like it so much.
"You certainly know how to talk." Dongfang Bai clapped his hands, and someone placed a decanter and three glasses on the table.
"Isn't that the truth?" Lin Xiao chuckled.
Afterward, Dongfang Yuebai picked up his notebook and made another entry.
Lin Xiao's mouth twitched stiffly. He then glared at Dongfang Yuebai, wondering if this guy was a bit too rigid.
He finally understood why Dongfang Bai had said that Dongfang Yuebai ranked first in school.
How could he not be first with such an attitude? He was clearly the type of person who would meticulously record everything.
"It is the truth, indeed... Yuebai, try it carefully. This wine isn't something you can buy with just money." Dongfang Bai said.
He held the bottle and examined it carefully. The bottle itself seemed like a treasure in his hand, and he couldn't put it down. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"So, what kind of red wine is this?" Dongfang Yuebai was clearly a little curious as well.
A red wine that his grandfather cared about so much must be extraordinary, and the bottle itself was likely of unusual origin.
"This thing, Zhao Yuanchao that guy brewed it himself. In the past, he was reluctant to give it to me. It's only now that he's brought me a bottle," Dongfang Bai said. "That old fellow is so stingy!"
"Elder Zhao personally brewed it?"
