Chapter 1291: 1290 Apology Wine

Tan Rou and her friends had been delayed longer than expected, and by the time they arrived at the hotel, the others had already started their pre-dinner activities.

Li Li was playing poker with Lan Ning and Liang Lu, Zhuang Liu and Tao Zhi were pulled aside by Feng Jiao for a discussion, Tian Tian was learning from Jiang Min how to fold napkins into roses, and Lu Qing and Xu Yan were sitting together, typing messages to each other on their phones.

“Sorry, we’re late again,” Shang Jin changed her previous tone, “But you can’t blame us for being late, mainly because we had to go back and fetch something.”

Li Li asked cooperatively, “Ah Jin, what treasures did you go to fetch?”

Shang Jin took out a box of wine, smiling as she said, “When we were coming down the hill, I felt that what I said to Young Master Feng earlier was inappropriate, so I thought I’d apologize to Young Master Feng. After a lot of thought, I decided to bring a bottle of fine wine as an apology.”

Feng Jiao glanced at the wine Shang Jin had brought, and his eyes widened. He had assumed that someone ordinary like Shang Jin wouldn’t produce anything worthwhile, yet to his surprise, the wine she had brought was a globally limited edition, and moreover, it was a fifteen-year-old vintage.

“This is a fine bottle of wine!” Feng Jiao couldn’t help but exclaim, “When it was bottled, it had already been in the cellar for thirty years, and now another fifteen years have passed, making it a forty-five-year-old vintage now.”

Shang Jin and Tan Rou simultaneously had regrets, feeling that they had only chosen this bottle because it was smaller, which made it easier to drink. Had they known how long it had been aged, they certainly would not have brought it out.

But since the wine was already here, it was definitely impossible to take it back, so they had no choice but to open it and drink.

Shang Jin said with a smile, “Yes, nothing else would be suitable for Young Master Feng to drink, only vintage wine like this is befitting for him.” But internally, she thought, ‘I’ll have you completely disoriented soon.’

Feng Jiao snickered and said, “Hmm, recognizing your mistake and correcting it is good, young people shouldn’t be so hotheaded. Besides, this is the Capital, home to many important figures. Small fry like you should stay behind the big shots, not clash with them.”

If the wine in her hand hadn’t been so expensive, Shang Jin really wanted to smash it on Feng Jiao’s head, thinking, ‘What a lousy dinner, everyone should stop eating and just wreck it altogether!’

“Yes, yes!” Shang Jin nodded continuously, “Young Master Feng, your lesson is very reasonable, I will definitely follow behind the important figures.” When she had made her fortune, she would demolish the Feng Family’s ancestral house, then build a public restroom on the site, and make Feng Jiao guard the restroom.

“Feng Jiao, can you speak decently? Ah Jin is my friend, what do you mean by saying those things to her?” Jiang Min couldn’t hold back her anger, “I may need the Feng Family’s help, but don’t go too far. If you push me too hard, we can stop discussing our dealings altogether.”

Shang Jin was startled by Jiang Min’s sudden outburst and almost dropped the wine bottle, “Ah Min…”

Jiang Min walked up to Shang Jin, grabbed her arm fiercely, and said, “Forget eating, I don’t care for his dinner. Let’s go eat somewhere else.”

Shang Jin couldn’t leave, she still had the powder in her pocket, and if she left now, what would happen to her plan?

“Ah Min, I truly want to apologize to Young Master Feng, I was wrong today, I shouldn’t have argued with him after being late,” Shang Jin said sincerely, “And Young Master Feng is really a good person. Even though I argued with him, he didn’t stop me from coming to dinner, so I think I should apologize properly.”

Jiang Min showed a peculiar expression, “Ah Jin, has someone brainwashed you?”

Shang Jin said, “Ah Min, it’s almost time to eat, please stop causing a fuss. Besides, I’m too tired to change locations now.”

With Shang Jin saying that, Jiang Min had no choice but to stay. She told Shang Jin, “Don’t let yourself be mistreated.”

Shang Jin smiled and nodded, “I’m not mistreating myself, I came here willingly today.” How else could she drug Feng Jiao?

“Enough talking, let’s sit down and get ready to eat,” Feng Jiao’s eyes locked onto the bottle of wine, “and try this forty-five-year-old fine wine.”
