“Yes, hahahaha.” Bambam replied, but then he did not dare to say another word.
The rest of the people remained nervous and vigilant, in case Jennie suddenly stirred up trouble.
It was not their fault. In the past, Jennie had racked her brains to escape Repulse Bay Villa. Naturally, this group of people were the first victims.
“Friends like us should get together more often in the future. Oh right, I’ve brought some wine over tonight. It’s just enough for everyone to have a taste.” Jennie was like a completely different person tonight.
Mingyu remained silent while Mark was so shocked that he didn’t know what to say.
Yeji was the only one who couldn’t resist the pretty lady. “Sure, sure!”
And Bambam was a joker who remembered to eat and avoid fighting. He immediately said, “Really? What wine? Then we’ll have to taste it properly! But…”
“But what?” Lisa glared at him.
“Nothing. Nothing.”
Bambam swallowed back the words: “but I don’t know what’s hidden in this wine”.
Soon, the waiter brought the wine that Jennie had brought and placed it on the table.
The four bottles of red wine looked ordinary.
On closer inspection, Mark discovered something. “‘The Crimson Afterglow’ from the Lumoé winery in France in 73?”
He immediately picked up a bottle and read the label in detail. Bambam snatched it from him, and then his movements became very careful, as if he was holding a piece of glass that would shatter easily. “It’s really The Crimson Afterglow!”
Bambam loved wine as much as his life, and he especially liked red wine. He was determined to drink all the good wine in the world, while Mark liked to collect wine.
The two of them had drunk wine countless times, but they had never encountered the famous ’73 Crimson Afterglow!
Back then, Bambam had sworn that if he could not drink the ’73 Crimson Afterglow in this lifetime, he would have to just keep living forever. Otherwise, he would not be able to die in peace!
Mark patted him on the shoulder and said, “Then die first. After I get it, I’ll burn it for you.”
He received a beating from Bambam.
It was said that there were only eight bottles of this wine. Two of them were kept by the British royal family, the other was kept by the richest man in the world, and the last was held at a famous French wine museum.
The other four bottles were missing.
Many people who loved alcohol were desperately searching for these four bottles. Unfortunately, there were countless people who were selling fakes, but none of them could truly obtain the real thing.
Even Lisa’s wine cellar shouldn’t have this? And Jennie had brought out four bottles the moment she arrived?
Bambam and Mark looked at each other and put down the bottles. This wine was too expensive, and it was obviously authentic. What was Jennie up to?
The more expensive something was, the more they wouldn’t dare to accept it.
Mingyu and Yeji weren’t interested in wine, but they knew that some things couldn’t be obtained so easily.
Jennie picked up a bottle and opened it with a pop. A very strong aroma of wine filled the air, making them salivate.
Bambam was stunned on the spot. When he smelled this fragrance, his nostrils widened slightly and he entered a trance-like state.
By the time he came back to his senses, Jennie had already poured five glasses of wine. She raised her glass and said, “If I did anything wrong previously, please forgive me. Now that Lisa and I are married, I hope we can get along as friends in the future.”
“Married?” This time, even the most indifferent Mingyu couldn’t help asking.
Lisa lifted his lashes. “Something wrong?”
“No, no, no, of course not. Why shouldn’t you get married? Boss and Sister-in-law are a perfect match, a match made in heaven. If you didn’t get married, you’d be letting down the Heavenly Dao! Fine, great.”
Everyone was surprised.
Lisa said nothing more. How had Jennie agreed to the marriage?
Jennie raised her glass and said, “Perhaps you are surprised about why I married Lisa. I have already thought it through. He is the person I like. If I hadn’t married him, I would regret it for the rest of my life. So, we got married. You are his best friends, so I hope to receive your blessings and be friends with you.”
Jennie actually didn’t care about these friends, but she knew that Lisa couldn’t live without friends.
From time to time, he would lock himself away. Other than work, he would not care about anything else. This was not a very healthy lifestyle. Jennie knew him better than he did.
After hearing her words, everyone could only put down their worries and raise their glasses.
No, Lisa was holding a glass of water. When Jennie poured the wine, she had poured him a glass of water.
There was some bitterness on his face, but it did not stop him from looking at Jennie with a gaze as gentle as water, forcing back all the coldness.
Mark was the first to pick up his wine. “Let bygones be bygones. We’re also happy to see our sister-in-law happy now.”
Mingyu raised his glass. “Congratulations.”
Yeji also picked up her cup, but Jackson snatched it away. “You’re not eighteen yet, you can’t drink.”
“Sister Jennie, look at him!”
Jennie smiled. “I’m sorry, My mistake. Drink some cola. I forgot your age.”
Yeji, who had a cup of coke in her hand, looked even more resentful than Lisa.
She didn’t like to drink, but she really wanted to taste this legendary wine. What exactly was it like? It was all gone.
While no one was looking, Jennie passed her wine glass to Yeji. “Just one sip.”
Yeji took a sip happily. What was this? The legendary fine wine that was actually bitter. There was not even a hint of sweetness. Who knew what the fuss was about.
Jennie put away her cup. Lisa felt even more bitter. Yeji could drink, but he couldn’t?
Bambam was the happiest of them all. He raised his glass left and right, but his stomach was filled with water, and he could hear the sound of it sloshing within him.
His stomach started to protest even before he started drinking the good wine.
With a regretful look on his face, he raised his glass and downed it. “Old sister-in-law, congratulations!”
For the remaining glass, he found an almost empty bottle and carefully took it, planning to slowly savor it.
He felt that Lisa and Jennie were really there to jinx him. They were simply too much. One of them had fed him with water while the other had seduced him with exceptional wine. There was nothing worse than this.
However, after a glass of wine, everyone’s grudges were settled, and the atmosphere became much better. Even Lisa, who always had an oppressive aura, looked much better.
