Chapter 2001 - Thirty Percent Drunk
Chapter 2001: Thirty Percent Drunk
“He’s not here now, and even if he is, I’m not afraid of him.” Mo Chen said with a smile. He picked up the cup of wine and sipped a little bit of the wine. The wine was mellow in his mouth and a breath of spiritual energy flowed through his body with that sip of wine, it was a very comfortable feeling.
“Did you make this spirit wine yourself?” He asked.
“Sort of! It’s some finer quality spirit wines I got my hands on and I mixed them up a bit. How is it? Is it nice?” She played with her cup of wine and looked at the cup of wine in his hands.
“It’s quite good, the taste is very special and it’s not inferior to what I’ve drank in the past.”
“I have prepared three kinds of wine today. Try them and tell me which one you like best and I will give you two jars.” She put down her cup of wine and picked up her chopsticks and began eating.
Upon hearing this, Mo Chen smiled gently: “Are you gifting me wine because you want me to help you take care of Heavenly Pill Tower? That’s not nearly enough, after all, we’ve known each other for a long time.”
“Only you get it, I won’t even take any out for anyone else.” Feng Jiu said with a grin: “I had specially asked the kitchen to prepare these dishes for you today and I took the wine out especially for you too. Even if you’re not willing, you still have to help me.”
“Don’t you think that it’ll be better if I went with you?” He looked at her with seriousness on his handsome face: “The dangers of the Volcanic Forest are beyond your estimation. I will worry if you go alone.”
Feng Jiu smiled: “It’s nothing in comparison to this matter. I don’t have many friends here and I trust you. Only you have the ability to take care of Heavenly Pill Tower for me.”
Mo Chen smiled helplessly upon hearing this: “It seems you have made up your mind and nothing I can say will change your mind. In that case, I won’t say any more. Do be careful on your trip to the Volcanic Forest!”
“Yes, I know. Come on, drink.” She poured more wine for him and continued speaking: “After you finish this wine you can try the other wine. It tastes completely different from this one…”
The two of them chatted in the courtyard as they drank wine and ate. On this day, Mo Chen was in Feng Jiu’s courtyard till evening before he left.
“Alright, it is getting late, I should go back first.” Mo Chen rubbed his forehead and stood up. He shook his head slightly and smiled: “I thought you said this wine isn’t strong. It takes some skill for me to drink from morning till evening and not be drunk.”
Feng Jiu sat unmoving, her flushed cheek rested on one of her hands. She looked at the swaying figure and smiled, then shouted outside: “Leng Shuang? Leng Shuang?”
“Master?” Leng Shuang had walked in from outside the courtyard. She walked over to Feng Jiu’s side after glancing at the two people.
“Go and prepare a bowl of hangover soup for him.” Feng Jiu said with a wave of her hand. She didn’t seem drunk. Her complexion was however flushed from drinking a lot of wine.
“Mo Chen, sit back down and wait for Leng Shuang to bring you a bowl of hangover soup. You can’t go back like this.” She smiled and motioned for him to sit down, then said: “I tell you, don’t compete drinking with Ze in the future, you are not his opponent.”
He waved his hand and said: “I’m not drunk so I don’t need to drink hangover soup.” He took two steps forwards with a hand on his forehead and looked back at Feng Jiu. He smiled and said: “I am only thirty percent drunk, that means I am seventy percent sober! Don’t worry, I will promise your request today.” Saying that, he walked out swaying.
