Here, people basically drink beer or liquor; red wine is rarely chosen, so the simple bottle of wine garnered little interest.
Molly picked up the wine glass and poured three cups, âWhat a waste not to drink such fine wine!â Because the room was so noisy, aside from Jian Dan and Meng Ran, no one heard Mollyâs remark.
Molly handed a cup to Meng Ran, âTry it!â
Meng Ran took a sip.
Though he wasnât knowledgeable about wine tasting, the moment the wine touched his palate, he knew it definitely wasnât cheap.
âThisâ¦â Meng Ran looked at the two women beside him.
Jian Dan and Molly exchanged a smile and made a shushing gesture towards Meng Ran.
About two hours later, Vice President Lin received a message on his phone. His lips curled up, and he had a complex look as he turned towards Jian Dan and her company in the corner.
âItâs getting late today, why donât we call it a day?â Vice President Lin stood up and suggested.

The bill arrived promptlyâ
Vice President Lin, who had been feeling smug, suddenly turned ashen upon seeing the numbers on the bill, âIs there a mistake with this figure?â
âThereâs absolutely no mistake! Just this bottle of Romanee-Conti costs 688,888!â the waiter explained.
âRomanee-Conti?â Vice President Lin looked befuddled at the waiter.
He had never tasted Romanee-Conti, but he had heard of it; the price of a bottle always starts in the six figures.
âWhat Romanee-Conti? We havenât drunk anyâ several people said at once.
Such fine wine, they hadnât even seen it, let alone tasted it.
âRight hereââ a pleasant female voice rang out, âI ordered it!â Jian Dan flaunted the now empty bottle of 1999 Romanee-Conti before everyoneâs eyes.
âWhen did you order it?â Vice President Linâs expression was uglier than if heâd eaten excrement.
âJust now! Didnât you say we could order anything?â
âYouâ¦â It was indeed him who said it, but he had indeed forgotten that such a wine as Romanee-Conti was on the menu; naturally, he had overlooked it since he never ordered it before.
âWhatâs wrong? Canât Vice President Lin afford it?â
âHey! If you donât have that big of a head, you shouldnât wear such a large hat, why try to act all important? How embarrassing now!â Molly chimed in from the side.
Hate swirled in Vice President Linâs eyes as he stared at Jian Dan.
The others were left gazing regretfully at the empty wine bottle, inwardly lamenting that they hadnât even had a taste.
Vice President Lin finally understood why they were served so much food just nowâit was because of that bottle of Romanee-Conti.
âVice President Lin, youâre not really unable to pay are you?â Molly spoke up again.
In front of so many people, one couldnât lose face, so he gritted his teeth and handed his card to the waiterâ¦
The payment of over six hundred thousand had nearly cleared out his entire savings.
After paying and getting his card back, Vice President Linâs gaze once again landed on Jian Dan. Tonight, he was determined to make her regret everything she had done, to leave her begging for life but yearning for death.
After leaving the KTV, everyone dispersed, leaving only Vice President Lin and the trio of Jian Danâs group.
âLetâs head back now that itâs over!â Meng Ran spoke out.
âHeh, you think too much, this is just the beginning,â snarled Vice President Lin, glaring at the trio.
âWhat are you going to do?â Meng Ran shielded the two women behind him.
Seeing Meng Ranâs manly stance, Molly swooned, âMeng Ran, youâre so handsome?â
âHuh?â In such a tense situation, far from being scared, she was totally at ease, prompting Meng Ran to look at her with confusion.
At that moment, a lot of people had gathered behind Vice President Lin, each one of them holding a weapon.
Meng Ran sensed trouble and while shielding Jian Dan and Molly, he whispered, âIâll hold them off, you two run as soon as you can!â
Jian Dan hadnât anticipated that at a critical moment, Meng Ran would stand up so strongly!
