Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Want to! Really want to! Dreaming of it!_1

Yang Yaozong gestured to him to stop talking and not to interrupt his work anymore.

Cheng Tingan’s body naturally had no scent of Spiritual Wine.

Yang Yaozong leaned in closer to sniff at Shen Tianxing, taking a deep inhale of the scent emanating from her.

Shen Tianxing felt uncomfortable with Yang Yaozong’s sniffing action, as if she was the piece of meat under a military dog’s nose. She couldn’t help but frown lightly and shifted her body to the side.

Li Kai, seeing that Shen Tianxing was getting upset, called out nervously, "Uncle Yang, please be careful, this is..."

Before he could finish, Yang Yaozong interrupted him excitedly, "I know, I know! This is the future Crown Princess Consort! The delightful aroma of wine I smell is emanating from this future Crown Princess Consort! Hahahaha..."

Li Kai asked with a puzzled look, "What aroma of fine wine?"

Yang Yaozong explained excitedly, "It’s that fine wine your grandfather drank, the one that can’t be bought in the market. Do you get it?"

Having said that, Yang Yaozong also winked at Li Kai.

Li Kai then suddenly understood.

Li Kai then said with a light laugh, "Uncle Yang, is your nose really more sensitive than a military dog’s? We didn’t drink that wine just now, can you really smell it?"

Speaking of his extremely sensitive nose, Yang Yaozong smiled smugly, "Don’t mention it, as long as I have smelled something once, I absolutely can’t forget it! Moreover, your grandfather’s wine, which I’ve only tasted once, left me unable to forget it. It really is unforgettable! I’ve been thinking, if only I could find that fine wine again, to drink a few more cups, my life would be satisfied. This has become my obsession!"

Everyone looked at him with surprised faces, all wondering in their hearts, "What kind of wine has such a great scent that it can make this gourmet sing endless praises and remember it deeply?"

In the Imperial Compound, the Li Family, Cheng Family, and Fang Family, who all had good relations with the Dugu Family, benefited from the old Master and Madam Dugu and had received Spiritual Wine and Spiritual Tea from Shen Tianxing.

Their family patriarchs treasured the Spiritual Wine and Spiritual Tea no less than General Li.

Li Kai, Cheng Tingan, and Fang Xiaoxiao naturally knew what the fine wine Yang Yaozong spoke of was.

Yang Yaozong’s words were indeed not at all exaggerated; even they had been longing for it after tasting it just once.

However, their families’ elders guarded the Spiritual Wine and Spiritual Tea tightly. Unless they themselves decided to share it with the family, they truly did not allow anyone else to even touch it.

Merely mentioning the Spiritual Wine made them itch for it as well.

Shen Tianxing also reacted and asked Yang Yaozong with a smile, "Owner Yang, do you really want to drink this Spiritual Wine?"

Yang Yaozong nodded decidedly, "I really do! Very much so! I even dream of it!"

Seeing his earnest expression, Shen Tianxing couldn’t help but tease him, "Owner Yang, if I give you a bottle of this wine, can we waive today’s bill?"

Upon hearing her words, Yang Yaozong’s eyes brightened frighteningly, and he declared with a big wave of his hand, "It’s waived! Of course, it’s waived! As long as you bestow a bottle of that wine upon me, not to mention today’s bill, in the future, whenever you come to dine, I will waive all your bills! How about that?"

Shen Tianxing looked at his exuberant manner and laughed again, "Owner Yang, you better keep your word!"

Yang Yaozong slapped his chest, "I, Yang Yaozong, always keep my word. With so many witnesses here, and with little Li, Cheng Shao, and Miss Fang here, the Crown Princess Consort need not worry; if I, Yang Yaozong, go back on my word, let them take me down!"

Shen Tianxing laughed, "Good! Owner Yang really is straightforward! Here, I’ll take this bottle of wine in exchange for your promise today. Everyone bear witness, if Owner Yang fails to keep it, I’ll have to come and smash up your shop!"

Yang Yaozong saw Shen Tianxing pull out a bottle of wine from her backpack.

He looked up and saw an antique-looking, celadon-colored wine bottle, bearing only five characters that read "Tianji Pavilion" and "Spiritual Brew," emitting an air of ancient simplicity.

Yang Yaozong stretched out both hands, carefully picked up the wine bottle, and pulled out the wooden stopper on top.

A rich aroma of wine instantly burst forth from the bottle.

As soon as the people present smelled the fragrance, they felt a rush of refreshment through their bodies and an instinctive craving, yearning to take a few sips of the fine wine to satiate themselves.

Upon smelling the unforgettable scent of the Spiritual Wine, Yang Yaozong was ecstatic beyond measure.

Indeed, it was exactly the same scent he had smelled at General Li’s home!

The moment Yang Yaozong saw everyone’s wolf-like gazes, he hurriedly plugged the wooden stopper back in, clutched the wine bottle tightly to his chest, as if he was afraid it would be snatched away, and hastily said to Shen Tianxing, "Crown Princess Consort, I won’t bother with thank yous, the promise I just made to you, as long as I, Yang Yaozong, am alive, will always remain valid! I must take my leave now, farewell!"

After speaking, he hurriedly left with the Spiritual Wine in his arms.

By the time everyone else reacted, Yang Yaozong was already out of sight.

Thinking about that mouthwatering wine, Li Kai also put on a flattering smile and looked at Shen Tianxing, asking eagerly, "Little Doctor, do you have any more of that wonderful wine?"

Shen Tianxing looked at him with a smile and asked, "Why, do you want to drink it as well?"

Li Kai nodded vigorously, "Yes! Very much so! I’ve been dreaming of it!"

Shen Tianxing laughed at his exaggerated expression and tone.

When Yang Yaozong uttered similar words just before, he was dead serious.

But coming from Li Kai, along with that bootlicking smile, it just made Shen Tianxing want to laugh.

"Alright! Considering your sincere invitation, I will be generous today and take out another bottle, letting you all appreciate this taste. But there’s only one bottle, no more after that!"

Li Kai and Cheng Tingan were overjoyed, "One bottle is enough, enough..."

Even if it wasn’t enough, they wouldn’t dare to say so!

If they did, they would be seen as greedy.

After all, it’s not easy for the Little Doctor to offer a bottle of Spiritual Wine!

You should know that such a bottle of Spiritual Wine has already commanded a private bid of one million yuan.

Yet even with a bid of one million yuan, no one is willing to part with the wine in their possession for money.

The families qualified to obtain this kind of Spiritual Wine aren’t short of cash in the slightest!

When they saw Shen Tianxing really took out another bottle of Spiritual Wine from her backpack, everyone cheered.

Li Kai was especially eager as he took the bottle from Shen Tianxing’s hand, quickly uncorked it, and first filled the cups for Shen Tianxing and Cheng Tingan.

Then he filled his and Fang Xiaoxiao’s cups.

Last of all, he poured half a small cup for each of his classmates—the kind that’s half of a small shot glass.

With each half-cup he poured, Li Kai felt a pang of heartache.
