Chapter 1476: Chapter 1476: Thanks for the Treat

Women are usually very confident about themselves, but Jian Dan calling her "auntie" repeatedly made her extremely uncomfortable.

"What my man is like is none of your concern. Besides, I have more than enough money to support as many men as I want, unlike some people who can’t even afford a meal," she retorted.

"Isn’t that the truth? How could we possibly compare to you? That’s why, with such a rare opportunity, we’d better seize it properly. Otherwise, this chance might just slip away."

"Ladies, would you like a drink? I feel like this moment deserves a toast!"

"Sure! We were just thinking the same thing."

"Alright then, wait here, I’ll go pick out a bottle of wine!" As she got up and headed to the bar, she deliberately turned to confirm with the woman, "You are true to your word, aren’t you?"

The woman was already seething inside, but she kept her composure for the sake of face. After all, the restaurant was bustling at lunchtime, and she couldn’t afford to lose face in front of so many people.

"I’m not particularly fond of the wines here. Could I pick one out from the wine cellar instead?" Jian Dan asked the server with a smile.

The server hesitated and glanced at the woman. After a brief nod from her, the server led Jian Dan to the wine cellar...𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Although Jian Dan rarely drank wine, her uncle would occasionally enjoy a glass at home. The important thing was, the wines in her uncle’s wine cellar were all quite expensive—the cheapest bottle costing several thousand Falang. So, Jian Dan could recognize an expensive bottle at a glance.

However, after walking around the wine cellar once, Jian Dan found nothing that caught her eye. Just as she was about to give up, she noticed out of the corner of her eye a bottle lying on the top shelf of the wine rack at the far back—a 1990 Romanee-Conti. This bottle was worth approximately 30,000 US Dollars, but more importantly, it was exceptionally rare.

A slight smile curved Jian Dan’s lips as she turned to the attentive server and said, "Please help me take that bottle down, thank you!"

The server was unaware of the bottle’s exceptional price. Without consulting the owner, she took the wine out of the cellar and, following Jian Dan’s instructions, decanted it.

"Hey~ thanks so much for treating us to lunch, and for the wine!" Jian Dan said cheerfully as she sat down, smiling at the woman.

"It’s no big deal. With my wealth, of course I can afford it."

"Indeed, indeed! Your wealth is worth hundreds of millions!"

Once the wine was properly decanted, the server brought the red wine to the table. "This is the bottle I just chose—try it and see how it tastes." She poured the wine elegantly into the glasses.

But when it came to Yuanyuan’s turn, she kindly declined. "I’m sorry, I don’t drink alcohol, thank you!" Yuanyuan said with a smile.

"You’re just not giving us face, huh?" Fu Chao said coldly, glaring at Yuanyuan.

"Yuanyuan just stated she can’t drink wine. Besides, even if she doesn’t, the rest of us are drinking, right? How could that be seen as disrespecting you?

Come on, ladies, let’s raise a glass and show our gratitude to the president for their generosity!"

Xia Mengjiao had never tasted such fine wine before, but Qin Rou, who used to be the Qin family’s heiress, was naturally familiar.

"This wine tastes pretty good!" Xia Mengjiao remarked.

"Of course! This is Romanee-Conti. Though I don’t know the exact vintage," Qin Rou said with a smile.

As soon as the words "Romanee-Conti" were uttered, the woman’s expression instantly changed. She knew there was only one bottle of Romanee-Conti in her wine cellar, and that particular bottle had been specially stored there by President Jiang of Wanfeng Group for his only daughter’s wedding next month.

Although she was quite accomplished herself, in the presence of President Jiang, she was merely a minor player.

Unconcerned with appearances anymore, the woman strode straight to the bar. Seeing the now-empty bottle, her heart sank entirely...
