Chapter 255 - Six-pack?
Chapter 255: Six-pack?
“Chen, what’s wrong?” Fali looked at Chen Zhao, confused. Chen Zhao’s expression had just changed wildly, as if something big had happened.
“I feel like I’ve just lost 1.2 million,” Chen Zhao said with a long face.
Dell continued to hurt Chen Zhao on the other side of the phone, “Chen, you can’t just enjoy that wine yourself. Do you want me to go over or do you want to come here?”
“Maybe tomorrow. Fali and I are having candle dinner now.”
“What? Have you already opened the wine? Don’t finish it. Leave some for me!”
“Don’t worry, we didn’t open that bottle. Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Chen Zhao complained.
“I only found it out just now.”
It was too late anyway. Chen Zhao had already poured the 1.2 million red wine away himself.
Nevertheless, he still took out the original bottle and poured the Spring of Youth into another bottle.
Chen Zhao left a bit of the spring in the bottle and poured the leftover red wine from the dinner in.
According to Beelzebub Zofee, adding the Spring of Youth to wine could increase its quality.
Chen Zhao hoped that Dell would not notice any difference.
The next day…
At noon, Chen Zhao went to Dell’s house with the wine.
“Chen, have you already drunk so much?” Realizing that there was only half a bottle left, Dell’s face was filled with pain.
“You should be glad that there is still some left.” Chen Zhao rolled his eyes.
My wine contains the Spring of Youth. Don’t think it’s worse than the wine from Rawls Wine Cellar.
“Mr. Risfar gave it to me. Let’s call him here and drink together.”
“Are we really calling another person here when there’s only half a bottle?”
“I won’t be drinking.” Chen Zhao rolled his eyes again.
A person could only benefit from the Spring of Youth once. He did not want to use it this early.
Chen Zhao planned to use it only when he and Fali were much older.
The wine was a gift from Risfar, after all. It was reasonable for Chen Zhao to invite him over to return the favor.
“Black-Ma, go and invite Mr. Risfar here.”
To be honest, Chen Zhao did not understand why Risfar would give him such an expensive bottle of wine. They had only met each other twice.
Soon, Risfar came. Black-Ma was also carrying Ronnie and Vera on his back.
“Chen, did you ask Black-Ma to invite me here?”
“Yes, what did he tell you?”
“He said woof woof… Can you translate it?”
When Risfar saw the red wine on the table, he smiled.
“Johnny, why did you such a good bottle of wine to Chen instead of me? He doesn’t even know about wines.”
“I would rather pour it away than give you.”
“Why? Did I offend you?”
“Who knows which bitch you’ll share the wine with? In just a week, I’ve seen at least ten women enter your manor.”
Chen Zhao poured Risfar and Dell a glass of wine each. Risfar looked at Chen Zhao. “Chen, are you not drinking?”
“Fali and I already drank half yesterday. To be honest, it’s a waste for either of us to drink it.”
“Fine. Wish you and Fali happiness.” Risfar lifted the wine glass. He had already smelled the spreading aroma.
The wine was even better than he thought. The extremely intense smell really matched the price of the classic collection from Rawls Wine Cellar.
Risfar took a sip. The sweet taste of the wine filled his mouth immediately.
It was an alluring feeling. Risfar could not help heaving a long sigh.
“Great wine. Chen, are you really not drinking?”
Risfar had another sip. He suddenly realized something.
He had drunk the wine from Rawls Cellar before, but it did not feel as good.
Rawls Wine Cellar only produced a few bottles of wine each year, which were all sold in auctions.
The red wine from Rawls Cellar tasted sweet and gentle. However, because it was made in redwood barrels, it would have the smell of redwood.
This is not from Rawls Cellar!
Nevertheless, the wine was even sweeter and more intense than the original. The aroma filled and stayed in Risfar’s mouth for a long time.
Risfar lifted the wine glass and looked at the wine under sunlight.
The wine was very bright and had no impurities at all.
Under the refraction of sunlight, it looked as shiny as ruby.
“What a great wine.” Risfar looked at Chen Zhao.
“Chen, it’s not the original wine, right?”
Chen Zhao was surprised that Risfar could tell the difference.
“Err…”
“Can you tell me which cellar it’s from? I’ve never had such wine before. It’s excellent!”
“Nice.” Dell suddenly grabbed the bottle and drank from it direct.
Chen Zhao quickly snatched the bottle from him. “Damn, you can’t drink like this!”
“Why? It’s just a bottle of wine.”
“You need to taste it slowly. Nobody drinks like this! Also, how are we supposed to drink after you put your mouth around it?”
Luckily, it was in Dell’s house and they were all friends.
If it was in public instead, Dell would probably be dead by now.
While the wine was quite intense, it was clearly not as strong as hard liquor.
As Dell and Risfar drank the wine, they eventually fell asleep on the sofa. Perhaps they were drunk.
On the other hand, Chen Zhao played with the kids in the courtyard. There was still about one-third of the wine left.
Dell and Risfar slept for about two hours. It was more like a nap.
Risfar woke up. When he opened his eyes, he felt as if the world had been renewed. He was clear-headed and rejuvenated.
Risfar glanced at Dell who was still sleeping.
Risfar was somewhat confused. He remembered very clearly that they had been drinking here.
How did they fall asleep?
He had quite a high alcohol tolerance. Even half a bottle of vodka would not make him drunk, not to mention red wine.
Risfar walked to the courtyard and saw Chen Zhao playing with the kids. “Chen, sorry, I don’t even know why I fell asleep.”
“Maybe you were too tired,” Chen Zhao said, smiling.
…
Risfar would usually not drink in the day
If he did, he would certainly not work, because it would affect his thinking and judgement.
However, today he drank in the day and felt that he had an endless amount of energy. He felt as if he was back to being twenty years old again.
All his cells were filled with vigor. It felt rather strange.
It was like a person who had been carrying weights for many years. He suddenly removed all the weights and felt as light as a bird.
At the dinner table, Ronnie stared at Risfar for a while, puzzled. “Dad, you became more handsome.”
“No, Dad became younger,” Vera corrected.
Risfar only laughed it off, dismissing his daughters’ lovely comments.
However, when he was washing up at night, he saw himself in the mirror.
Did my crow’s feet just disappear?
Risfar was confused. The wrinkles on his forehead were also gone and his hair had become brighter.
He used to have some white hair due to his busy schedule and worry for his family. Now, his white hair was nowhere to be seen too.
Risfar touched his belly. Six-pack?
Since he was thirty, his six-pack had been reduced to beer belly.
