Zhou Xu seemed to have sensed something and turned around, meeting Gu Man’s gaze before she could retract it.
Zhou Xu suddenly smiled, it looked exceptionally pure on his youthful face.
Gu Man did not react to his sudden smile.
Although Gu Man retracted her gaze, Zhou Xu, who had been looking at her, did not. He sized her up with interest and the smile on his lips widened.
In the end, this farce ended with Zhou Xu dragging the woman out of the room by her hair. As this group of people left, the entire private room became much quieter.
Bai Yun watched the entire scene and looked at Xiang Yin teasingly. If not for his extremely cold face, he would have mocked him a few times.
“This Zhou Xu is a little too arrogant.”
“It’s more than that.”
Xiang Yin thought of Elder Zhou’s actions at the auction and could not help but sneer. Like father like son, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. None of the Zhou family was good.
Bai Yun looked at Xiang Yin’s expression and seemed to be really angry. He hurriedly said, “This Zhou Xu is usually tactful, but 1 don’t know what’s going on today.”
Bai Yun thought to himself that since he was the one who brought this person over, he naturally had to give Xiang Yin an explanation. Hence, he gritted his teeth and called for the attendant to bring over the good red wine he had stored here.
Before Xiang Yin could say anything, Cui Lin saw the bottle of red wine and looked at it excitedly. “You’re finally willing to take out this wine. As expected, it still has to be because of the Second Young Master of the Xiang Family.”
Before Bai Yun could speak, Cui Lin consciously opened the red wine and poured himself a glass. He swirled it two or three times and sniffed it fiercely.
“Good wine!”
The veins on Bai Yun’s forehead twitched a few times. In the end, he could not lose his temper because Xiang Yin was here, but he would not let Cui Lin off so easily.
He plopped down next to him and strangled him viciously. “Does it taste good? You sure don’t hold back.”
Cui Lin, who was being strangled, did not realize it at all. He even took another sip of red wine in front of Bai Yun.
“Tastes good.”
He raised his eyebrows at Bai Yun provocatively. The mo of them instantly started fighting.
“Do you know anything about wine? How dare you comment here? Why didn’t I know you knew so much about wine before?”
Cui Lin raised the wine glass in his hand high, afraid that the wine inside would spill. However, even so, he did not forget to respond to Bai Yun’s words.
“I don’t know much about wine, but 1 know Romanee Conti.”
“I only have one bottle. Take it easy.”
If not for the fact that Bai Yun had a father who loved alcohol as much as his life, he would not only have this bottle.
He let go of Cui Lin’s hand and took the red wine over, preparing to pour a glass for Gu Man and Xiang Yin.
However, at this moment, Gu Man, who had been silent, rejected him. “No need. I don’t like to drink.”
Bai Yun raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Man in disbelief.
“This is Romanee Conti.”
When Gu Man heard this, she only nodded slightly, but her rejection was still especially obvious. Bai Yun was afraid that she did not know how precious this wine was, so he immediately explained, “This is a famous wine…”
Bai Yun spoke for a long time and looked at Gu Man expectantly, but he was still rejected. His face was filled with disbelief and he could only shift his gaze to Xiang Yin.
“It’s fine to drink a little for the mood. Besides, it’s not easy for me to be so generous. Second Master Xiang, aren’t you going to persuade Miss Gu?”
“There’s no need. You can keep this wine for yourself.”
There was a faint smile on Xiang Yin’s lips as he looked at the wine bottle in Bai Yun’s hand.
Bai Yun looked at the red wine in his hand and finally shook his head. “This is Romanee Conti from 1948. You guys actually didn’t drink it. If 1 had known, I wouldn’t have opened it. No one actually knows how to appreciate this good wine.”
Bai Yun poured himself a glass gloomily. Actually, he rarely drank red wine, but now that he took a sip, he felt that it did not taste as good as they praised.
When Gu Man heard Bai Yun’s words, she couldn’t help but laugh.
Her laughter instantly attracted Bai Yun’s attention.. Bai Yun, who was already extremely depressed, could not help but ask, “Miss Gu, could it be that my drinking posture is too funny?”
