Chapter 668 Lanqi also understands the charm of 800-year-old wine
In the reception room deep in the Earl's Mansion.
It was late at night, but the moonlight seemed particularly clear.
Countess Rosalinda sat at one end of the couch, while Ranch and Talia were at the other.
When Talia heard what Rosalinda said, her eyes became a little unnatural, but her expression remained unchanged.
She knew that Countess Rosalinda's rival, the untouchable queen demon, was her sister Ifatia.
"Please continue."
Lanci has been professionally trained to remain serious and calm when listening to stories.
The loser's hysteria can easily make people laugh, but this is only a minor factor.
"Who knows how old that woman is. She certainly doesn't age, but that doesn't mean she's really young."
Countess Rosalinda's eyes were filled with tears as she spoke to the two men.
"Every time I see her sitting down, she lies on the sofa with her head resting on Mi Gaiya's legs. She wishes she could close her eyes for 24 hours a day except for eating. She even needs Mi Gaiya to carry her on her back when she walks. I feel like there's a cat scratching me in my heart."
She had obviously tried her best, but she was still no match for this demon. When she wasn't paying attention, Mi Gaiya was captured by her, which she couldn't understand.
“…”
Lanci turned his head and looked at Talia.
Your sister is really unique. Does Hyperion know that she is like this?
Talia shook her head slightly.
Hyperion didn't know.
Talia didn't dare to break Hyperion's fantasy about her mother.
If Ifatia is really found, she will probably ask Hyperion to take care of her, and it will be difficult to tell who is the daughter.
To some extent, it was a good thing that Ifatia left Hyperion when she was young, otherwise Hyperion might have to learn to take care of her mother when she was a few years old. Talia couldn't bear to let the honest Hyperion work as a child laborer.
Lanqi fell into deep thought.
Although Miss Ifatia is also a demon, and may appear to be very cold on the surface sometimes, she does not have the charm that comes from eight hundred years of accumulation, so Hyperion may not like her.
Instantly, Lanqi felt a chill down his spine.
Just like this fine wine, the longer it is aged, the more charming it becomes, and its value will increase immeasurably. We can only say that Hyperion has good taste.
He changed his mind.
At this point, the coldness gradually melted and dissipated.
"I don't think the problem lies with Miss Rosalinda. Sometimes it's just a matter of fate."
Lanqi comforted the lady across the sofa.
"Although, if it was just Mi Gaiya who rejected me, I could still accept it, but why did that female demon get his favor? Why am I inferior to her? I'm so unwilling to accept this!"
Countess Rosalinda picked up the nearly empty wine glass and poured some into her mouth. She became more and more emotional as she spoke. "You know what's the worst? She even wants Miaiya to feed her. Ugh, I really want to vomit. Seeing the two of them being so willing, I still get goose bumps every time I think about it."
Countess Rosalinda continued to cry to the two of them.
Lanqi and Talia's expressions froze.
"Can you imagine that kind of scene? Do they really have the sense of shame of adults?"
“…”
Lanqi and Talia were speechless and subconsciously wanted to move away from each other.
The living room was quiet for a moment.
"Why aren't you talking?"
The countess wiped her tears, her eyes gradually focused and she asked.
"Let's talk business."
Lanci suggested with great embarrassment.
"Ahem, by the way, I accidentally changed the subject. I'll talk to you about Mi Gaiya and his wife next time."
Countess Rosalinda cleared her throat, the blush on her face faded, and she regained her solemn expression.
In any case, she still wanted to pick up the wine glass and drink a little more. After she was sure that there were not many drops left in the glass, she stood up gently, walked to the wine cabinet beside her, picked out a bottle of expensive red wine, and then bent down.
"Do you drink?"
She took out two exquisite high-heeled glasses from the lower shelf of the wine cabinet and turned around to ask.
"I can."
Talia nodded.
She hardly gets drunk from drinking low-alcohol wine, and sometimes having a glass with dinner is quite good and helps her sleep.
"I don't drink alcohol, can I have a glass of sparkling water?"
Lanqi politely smiled and refused.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Okay, it's rare that I have friends to chat with me, let's chat and drink together."
She picked up the bottle and told the waiter to bring a drink to Lanqi, then walked back to the sofa and sat down.
As the red wine was slowly poured into the glass, a deep aroma filled the air, adding a touch of crystal clear red to the late night.
"I didn't expect you don't drink, Lanqi. This is the same as Mr. Bo Laao. He never touches alcohol in order to stay sober in the test field. On the contrary, Migaiya often tries various kinds of alcohol. He has a physique that is very resistant to poison."
Rosalinda handed the glass to Talia and then said to Lanqi.
"I don't want to be arrested in Huadu for being drunk."
Lanci smiled and shook his head.
"…It's hard to imagine you being drunk."
Countess Rosalinda said in surprise.
In her opinion, this junior fellow was a very steady type in both his behavior and conversation.
"For those who are weak to alcohol, the greatest charm of alcohol is that even though you know it will make you drunk, you still can't help but try it. But can you resist it?"
She raised an eyebrow in curiosity.
It's not just alcohol, some people are like this too. They are just like alcohol, and it's hard to say whether they are poison or antidote.
"Apparently, I can."
Lanci replied confidently.
Talia took a silent sip of her wine.
She now realized that Lanqi really didn't seem to drink.
I heard from Lanqi's father and housekeeper that Lanqi was addicted to alcohol for a while, but he never touched alcohol again after meeting her, as if he had forgotten about alcohol.
"Although it's embarrassing, I've embarrassed you as soon as I came to Huadu."
Lanci then remembered the plane crash and added to Countess Rosalinda.
"I heard that you met Tiffany Gong's executioner. There is nothing we can do. The emergency safety regulations just implemented in Huadu today. I hope you are safe."
Rosalinda breathed a sigh of relief and answered him.
Recently, the number of cases of Cursed Demons going berserk has increased exponentially, and the news can no longer be suppressed. The Person Kingdom has decided to gradually disclose intelligence, increase the security control level of the Flower City Pariah, and make every effort to investigate the culprit of the mystery with the least panic.
Although she was not in the Senate, she soon learned what happened on the Floating Castle flying boat tonight.
What really surprised Rosalinda was not that Ranchi and Tata had met with an accident.
But they were able to walk away unscathed from Tiffany's executioner.
