Chapter 160: Drinking fine wine

When Leng Jun Yu noticed how anxious Le Yao Yao appeared, his nasty mood instantly evaporated.

He was nervous and anxious. So that means, deep down, he does kind of care about me?

Thinking of this, Leng Jun Yu couldn’t help but curve into a smile.

But to everyone else, Leng Jun Yu’s smile implied something else.

Seeing Leng Jun Yu smile, Le Yao Yao’s heart throbbed.

On the other hand, the unstable Nian Sulan glowed.

“Alright, this Prince will take you back.”

Leng Jun Yu’s voice was icy as usual, but to Sulan, those were the most touching words she had ever heard.

But Le Yao Yao’s heart was aching.

“Bai, Jun Xi, you guys go to Ruyi Tavern then. I’ll escort her home.”

“Alright!”

The King of Hell was actually taking that woman home!? Oh God!!

Does this mean he has fallen for Sulan??

Obviously, Le Yao Yao couldn’t read Leng Jun Yu’s mind. She was staring the whole time as Leng Jun Yu picked Sulan up and carried her onto the horse carriage. Even when they had disappeared from her sight of vision, she was still in a daze.

Seeing this, Nangong Jun Xi was a bit annoyed.

“Hello!? What are you looking at? Senior brother is already gone. Didn’t you say you were hungry? Let’s go eat! This Prince will treat you to eat good food!”

“Yes. Let’s go eat now, brother Yao. I don’t want you to go hungry for too long.” Bai nicely suggested.

“Ok. Let’s go eat then.” Le Yao Yao sighed.

Ruyi Tavern was the Capital’s best tavern. Aside from having extravagant designs and delicious dishes, most importantly, they were the Capital’s first 24 hours operating tavern.

There were always staff working regardless if you come during the wee hours of the day or late at night for a midnight snack. Service was always great and reliable.

So, Dongfang Bai, Nangong Jun Xi, and Le Yao Yao took a horse carriage and headed for the Ruyi tavern. After they entered their VIP room, they immediately ordered the most fancy dishes from the restaurant.

There were meat and fish dishes and lots of exotic delicacies. But currently, Le Yao Yao didn’t have any appetite at all.

Although deep down she was hungry and her stomach was growling, it was as if the dishes had lost its charm and taste.

Nangong Jun Xi could tell Le Yao Yao wasn’t acting like his usual self. So he crinkled his brows and exclaimed, “Hey! How could the person who complained he was hungry forget how to use the chopsticks? Aren’t you hungry? Eat!”

“Yes. Brother Yao, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to take a look?”

Seeing how upset Le Yao Yao appeared, Dongfang Bai stopped drinking and worriedly turned to show his concern.

It wasn’t until Le Yao Yao saw Dongfang Bai’s expression that she realized she was upset. She felt guilty for making Dongfang Bai worried.

But why was she acting like this? Her heart felt so stuffed. Sigh. But she didn’t want Dongfang Bai to worry, so she forced a smile and pretended she was fine.

“I’m alright! It’s probably because I’ve been so tired with directing the plays. I might have overworked myself. After filling my stomach, I must get a good sleep!”

Then, Le Yao Yao’s eyes landed on Nangong Jun Xi. She stretched out her palm, “7th Prince, don’t be a sore loser. Hand me my one hundred silver taels!”

“Eh? You greedy little servant! Fine! Here you go. It’s merely a hundred silver taels but you wouldn’t stop thinking about it!”

Nangong Jun Xi was a bit speechless. But he ultimately took out a big silver tael that was equivalent of a hundred and pressed it in Le Yao Yao’s hand. However, he was muttering like a grumpy child as he did it.

Le Yao Yao didn’t care that Nangong Jun Xi was grumpy. The moment she held onto the big silver tael, her face bursted into a brilliant smile.

“Hehe! At the end of the day, money is the most dependable!”

Now, Le Yao Yao’s mood had improved drastically. She was ready to eat.

So, she immediately picked up her chopsticks and started to devour the dishes in front of her.

Seeing how Le Yao Yao’s mood had improved, Dongfang Bai and Nangong Jun Xi were relieved and began to drink amongst themselves.

This time, Ruyi tavern had imported a batch of new wine. Sources say that the wine was fermented by white magnolia that had just bloomed. As a result, although the wine was very simple, it tasted very rich and elegant.

Le Yao Yao had very little experiences of drinking. After all, back in the 21st century, she was only eighteen and not of legal age. Occasionally, she would only drink a bottle of beer with her roommates.

So now, Le Yao Yao was extremely curious. She noticed that ever since they had arrived at the Ruyi tavern, neither Dongfang Bai nor Nangong Jun Xi had taken a bite. Instead, they were just drinking.

“Does the wine taste that good?”

“Eh?” The men were surprised by Le Yao Yao’s question. Nangong Jun Xi was holding his white jade cup in midair. There was a peculiar expression on his face.

“You’ve never tried alcohol before?”

“I’ve never tried the alcohol here before.”

She had only tried 21st century beer. She hasn’t drunk in the ancient era yet!

However, Nangong Jun Xi assumed Le Yao Yao had never drank alcohol in his entire life. So, he immediately picked up the wine jug and began to pour a cup for Le Yao Yao.

“Then you must experience the fine wine from the Ruyi tavern! They are known for their wine; far and wide.”

The fine wine was transparent-looking. In addition, there was a rich, simple and sweet scent to it…

The moment Le Yao Yao smelt it, she wanted to drool. She put down her chopsticks and was about to take the cup from Nangong Jun Xi’s hand. But Dongfang Bai stopped her.

“Brother Yao, you’re too young. Don’t drink. It is harmful to the body.”

“Aiya! Bai, are you kidding me? When I met you, you were already drinking at fifteen! How could you have the the face to tell others not to drink?”

“Eh…”

Since Nangong Jun Xi revealed his past, Dongfang Bai was very embarrassed. His white cheeks instantly turned pink.

“Hoho! Brother Bai looks so cute when he is embarrassed!”

Le Yao Yao was stating the truth. It was rare to see a flustered Dongfang Bai.

After Le Yao Yao’s statement, Dongfang Bai’s face turned even redder. He awkwardly stated, “Brother Yao, one must not use ‘cute’ to describe a man.”

“Hoho! But what if I just find brother Bai cute?! What are you going to do about it?”

Le Yao Yao couldn’t help but tease Dongfang Bai. Deep down, she sighed.

*Pu pu pu*… a hot man was truly a hot man. Even when he is red-faced, he still looks so good! I can’t shift my eyes away!

The more Le Yao Yao thought about it, the brighter she smiled.

Seeing this, Dongfang Bai’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat. He felt a blast of hot air coming up from his heart into his head.

He knew Le Yao Yao was being mischievous and teasing him. So, in the end, he could only helplessly smile as he tenderly gazed at Le Yao Yao.

So now, Le Yao Yao and Dongfang Bai were exchanging sweet eye contact with each other. Seeing this, Nangong Jun Xi was burning with jealous.

“Is Bai the only cute one? Is this Prince not cute too?!

“Eh….?”

Dongfang Bai and Le Yao Yao stared at Nangong Jun Xi speechlessly.

Le Yao Yao turned and noticed that Nangong Jun Xi looked like a jealous child. His face was so sour. It was as if he was a puppy trying to gain the owner’s attention. So cute.

“7th Prince, servant realizes that you are a narcissist!”

“Eh!?!”

Oh God! What’s wrong with him!? How could be embarrass himself like this in public?

But in all honesty, he didn’t like it when Le Yao Yao said good stuff about other men. For example, calling them cute and stuff.

If Le Yao Yao is going to call someone cute, it has to be him!

Humph!

While Nangong Jun Xi was busy drowning in vinegar, he realized Le Yao Yao had snatched the wine cup from his hand.

“This wine smells so good. I’m going to try and see what it tastes like.”

So, Le Yao Yao held the white jade cup with both her hands and first took a sniff. Then, she slowly placed her lips on it and took a small sip.

The moment the smooth fine wine entered her mouth, she tasted something sweet and refreshing. It left a rich aftertaste and it was very memorable.

Now, Le Yao Yao understood why Dongfang Bai and the rest loved to drink so much.

This wine was definitely high quality stuff!

So, Le Yao Yao took another sip. But this time, she finished the whole cup.

Afterwards, she felt a tingling spicy hot sensation in her throat. So, she stuck out her tongue a few times like a cute kitten.

The wine wasn’t too strong. It was perfect for her!.

Although Le Yao Yao hadn’t said anything yet, based on her facial expressions, Nangong Jun Xi and Dongfang Bai already knew she liked it.

“How is it? Great, right?”

“Mm! It’s delicious! I’ve never drunk such fine wine before!”

Since Le Yao Yao seemed to enjoy the wine so much, Nangong Jun Xi’s brows were raised and he looked pleased. He poured Le Yao Yao another cup.

“Of course! This magnolia wine costs a thousand taels a jar. Although it is on the pricier side, it is worth its value!”

“WHAT? A t-thousand taels a jar?!”

Hearing this, Le Yao Yao was flabbergasted. Her eyes and mouth were popping out!

Oh God! The wine is too expensive!?! Only the rich would be able to afford!

For some people, they will probably never make enough in their lifetime to ever try this!

“That’s nothing to be shocked about. Some fine wine could cost more than ten thousand silver taels. After all, fine wine is a rare luxury. Come, since you like it so much. Drink another cup!”

Although Le Yao Yao was stunned by the price, she knew she wasn’t the one paying for the bill So if she didn’t drink it, it would be a waste!

Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao instantly took the cup from Nangong Jun Xi’s hand.

Initially, she had only planned on drinking two cups. Unexpectedly, the more she drank, the more she liked it. So, she drank cup after cup….

  1. I nearly missed this chapter! Yao Yao always gets in trouble! Something is going to happen, isn’t it? I just hope it’s with the King of Hell, or else his jealousy will burn the town to the ground. smh.

  2. Plot hole. Le Yao Yao HAS gotten drunk before. I remember this vividly because I was horrified that she got wasted… while pregnant.

    And here she is, getting drunk again while pregnant. Why is she constantly getting drunk? It’s been what, less than two weeks in novel time and she’s been uncontrollably drinking at least once a week. Poor fetus 🙁

  3. The drink til drunk is definitely “OUT”. How ever cute she may appear this is a bad idea.It will be much easier for her true sex to get revealed in this state as well. yao Yao calm down.

    Thank you for this update

    1. I pay to host on this site. Why would I post my translations on wattpad so people might read there instead? So many people steal my translations and post on wattpad without my permission.

  4. Oh NO! I’m pretty sure she is pregnant at this point with a baby. The small figure that the king of hell vented his depression and lust while drunk must have been her and all those symptoms. Ah not good ,not good. Oh goodness. Drinking while pregnant . It’s making me so anxious.

    I LOVE your work by the way. Thank you for putting so much time , money and effort into these . If it wasn’t for you and other generous translaters I would never be able to read my fill of these drama novels which I adore. Sadly my finicial situation isn’t good as a young mother if not I would help out for the website fees.

  5. *tears* when you know your ship is going to crash, but it’s such a good ship…. DF is so sweet.
    I had a few beers a week before I realized I was pregnant. Getting sloshed isn’t good, but this early the baby will probably be alright.
