Report

The Bentley SUV slowly stopped at the entrance of the Li Family's villa. The moment Chen He got off the car, the bodyguards around the villa immediately greeted him respectfully, "Hello, Brother Chen!"

Ji Ruyun looked at Chen He in surprise, and the curiosity in her eyes deepened.

"Sister Ruyun, let's go." Li Peijiu gently held Ji Ruyun's slender arm, and the two charming super goddesses held each other's arms and walked into the villa leisurely.

In the villa, the banquet had been prepared, and the specially hired Michelin chef personally served the exquisite western dishes on the table.

"Ruyun, you're here." Li Tianrong greeted her kindly.

"Ruyun is getting more and more beautiful." Luo Xiangnan was also full of smiles.

Ji Ruyun revealed a beautiful smile, "Hello, Uncle Li, Aunt Luo. You two are getting more and more energetic."

"Ruyun, come and sit down. You must be hungry. Let's get ready for dinner." Li Tianrong invited Ji Ruyun to sit down.

The luxurious banquet in the villa was about to begin …

Outside the villa, Chen He finished smoking a cigarette and was about to leave.

Li Tianrong suddenly came out of the villa and stopped him, "Xiao Chen, don't go. Come on, let's have dinner together."

"Dinner? Sure, I happen to be hungry too. "Douglas shamelessly agreed. Since there was a free dinner to eat, why not?

When Li Tianrong led Chen He into the villa and invited him to sit down for dinner, Ji Ruyun was even more surprised. Why would Li Tianrong invite an insignificant driver and bodyguard to have dinner with him?

"Why did you come in?" Goddess Li Peijiu asked in surprise, as if he didn't welcome Chen He.

"I came in for dinner? Why? Don't you welcome me? "Chen He curled his lips.

Li Peijiu squinted at Chen He and turned his head to ignore him, but he didn't refute.

Chen He swept his gaze across the dining table. The table was filled with luxurious food, and the aroma of the food assailed his nostrils! Li Peijiu, this damned woman! There were so many delicious dishes, but she didn't invite me!

"Little Chen, don't just stand there. Sit down and let's eat together," Luo Xiangnan said softly.

Chen He casually found an empty seat and sat down. However, when he sat down, he happened to sit right next to Li Peijiu!

Li Peijiu, who had been silent all this while, suddenly raised her head and glared at him with her beautiful face. "Who allowed you to sit next to me?"

"What? Can't I have a seat?" Chen He retorted.

"No way!" Li Peijiu said angrily.

"Tsk, I'm too lazy to sit with you." Chen He pursed his lips and stood up. He glanced at Ji Ruyun and sat down beside her.

Ji Ruyun raised her head in surprise. She glanced at Chen He but didn't say anything.

"Sister Ruyun, let's drink some red wine today. My dad just bought a bottle of 1985 vintage Lafite from France," Li Peijiu said with a smile.

"Okay, let's have a little then." Ji Ruyun smiled faintly, looking extremely charming.

Chen He turned his body slightly and sniffed the air with all his might. The air was filled with the fragrance of Ji Ruyun's body. It was elegant, charming, and could make one daydream.

Li Tianrong quickly brought the red wine from the wine cellar. The servant opened the bottle and sobered it up. The rich red liquid instantly filled the air with a strong and alluring fragrance.

If the 1985 vintage Lafite was put on the market, it would fetch a sky-high price! It was a rare red wine that was almost out of print. This bottle was almost equivalent to the income of an ordinary family for decades.

The servant carefully poured the wine for everyone. The fragrant liquid swirled in the goblets. This glass of red wine could be called liquid gold.

"Come, cheers! Thank you, Ruyun, for your help to our Global Group! "Li Tianrong was the first to raise his glass and said with a smile.

Everyone raised their glasses together and clinked their glasses lightly.

Although Chen He looked like a hooligan, when the goblet was brought to his mouth, his entire temperament suddenly changed. In an instant, he exuded a noble gentleman's aura!

He took a sip of the red wine. The fragrant red wine lingered in his mouth. He could feel every cell on the tip of his tongue dancing. He had to admit that this wine was very good! Mellow! However, the year of this wine was not right! With just one sip, Chen He could taste the year of this wine. He tasted the red wine with the tip of his tongue and deduced the real year in his mind. 87. This was a bottle of 87 Lafite!

There was a difference of two years, but the price was really different! The price of a rare and precious Lafite was calculated according to the year. The older the year, the more expensive it was. The bottle that Li Tianrong opened was obviously two years short. If it was as he expected, Li Tianrong must have been scammed …

"Sister Ruyun, I'll give you a toast too. Thank you, Juyun Capital. If it wasn't for Juyun Capital, our Global Group really wouldn't know how to survive this disaster." Li Peijiu poured the red wine and raised his glass to Ji Ruyun.

"Peijiu, we've been sisters for so many years. Why are you telling me this? Don't you see me as your sister?" Ji Ruyun pouted.

Li Peijiu held Ji Ruyun's arm intimately and said in a magnetic voice, "Sister Ruyun, you'll always be my good sister and best friend."

Chen He was envious of Li Peijiu's intimate action … Damn, women are so good. They can hold each other's arm so intimately … If only I was the one holding her arm … Chen He secretly fantasized …

Everyone drank and ate at the same time. The exquisite western-style seafood feast was delicious. Chen He didn't stand on ceremony at all. He didn't even bother to use a knife and fork. He directly grabbed the food with his hands and ate. He was simply a hooligan … He didn't care about his image at all …

Li Peijiu glared at Chen He with her beautiful eyes. She was speechless at this man who didn't have any manners at all.

Chen He suddenly asked while eating the lobster, "How do you plan to deal with the Platinum Group?"

Everyone was stunned. The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

"What does it have to do with you? Eat your food. "Li Peijiu glared at Chen He and dismissed him with one sentence.

Li Tianrong hesitated for a while. Then, he gestured to the insignificant servants around to leave. The door of the villa was closed tightly.

Only Li Tianrong's family of three, Ji Ruyun, and Chen He were left in the villa.

"The Platinum Group has acquired our Global Group's shares in the stock market. They want to seize the opportunity to occupy the shares and become the major shareholder. They want to drive the Li Family out of the Global Group," Li Tianrong said slowly.

"Now, we plan to join hands with Juyun Capital to acquire the shares. No matter how powerful and rich the Platinum Group is, it's just a company. If Global and Juyun Capital join hands, I believe our two companies can deal with it! "

"Dad! Why are you telling him this? He's an outsider. What if he leaks the news? "Li Peijiu's face was cold.

"Little Chen is not an outsider. I trust him," Li Tianrong said slowly.

Li Peijiu wanted to retort but did not know how. She furrowed her brows and kept quiet.

Ji Ruyun's beautiful eyes glanced meaningfully at Chen He. She was getting more and more curious about Chen He. What was the background of this insignificant driver and bodyguard? Why did Li Tianrong trust him so much? Also, he was fearless. He even dared to beat up Zhou Jian. What trump card did he have?

Although Douglas ate lavishly without any etiquette, every time he raised his glass and drank, he displayed a completely different temperament. He was simply a noble gentleman.

"You seem to know a lot about red wine?" Ji Ruyun asked curiously.

"Not a lot. I'm just an expert!"

"I really couldn't tell." Ji Ruyun revealed a meaningful smile.

Li Peijiu glared at Chen He. "You're quite good at acting."

Hearing Li Peijiu's words, Chen He was unhappy. "How do you know I'm acting? Maybe I really know a lot about wine? "

"You're blowing your own trumpet." Li Peijiu said coldly.

Chen He pouted. "I'm not blowing my own trumpet. I really do know a lot about red wine."

"Oh? Little Chen, you know about red wine? "Li Tianrong was also slightly surprised and asked with a smile.

"Uh, I know a thing or two. I've been in contact with it overseas." Chen He smiled.

"I didn't know you had such a good character. Not bad, not bad." Li Tianrong smiled and nodded. He also liked red wine very much and was an out-and-out wine lover. It could be said that he had met a confidant.

"Nonsense." Li Peijiu snorted. She did not believe Chen He at all.

"Little Chen, what do you think of my 85 year Lafite? Is it mellow? " Li Tianrong asked expectantly. Fine wine was his collection. Li Tianrong was very satisfied to hear the affirmation of his collection from someone else's mouth. This was what wine lovers were proud of.

"The taste is not bad. The wine is mellow and mellow. The alcohol doesn't evaporate too much, and the essence of the grape juice is locked in. The aftertaste is sweet and astringent, mixed with tobacco and sour fruit flavors. It's also very pure. It's a great wine."

When he heard Chen He's review, Li Tianrong's eyes were filled with surprise and admiration.

A trace of astonishment flashed across Ji Ruyun's face as she curiously looked at Chen He. Her eyes were filled with an enchanting depth.

Li Peijiu pouted. "Since you know so much about red wine, tell me about the origin of this wine." She obviously wanted to embarrass Chen He. With Chen He's ability to brag, how could he know the origin of this wine?

Chen He took a sip of the wine and said slowly, "According to the analysis of the taste, it can be confirmed that it is from Chateau Lafite, one of the top five wineries in Bordeaux, France. Chateau Lafite's red wine is very floral and fruity, but this wine is sour and deep fruity. It should have been aged for decades. It belongs to the Cabernet Sauvignon type of red wine."

Li Tianrong's mouth opened wide. He was shocked … He could tell the origin of the wine just by taking a sip? Type? This … this was too awesome, wasn't it?! Even those experienced drinkers in his circle of friends could not do this! But Chen He …

Ji Ruyun blinked her beautiful eyes. There was a touch of charm in her eyes. She stared at Chen He as if she wanted to see through the man in front of her.

"It's just a wild guess." Li Peijiu bit her red lips.

"However, although this red wine has a mellow taste, the rich flavor is a little shallow. It's about two years' difference in the rich flavor. So … the real year of this wine should be 1987. It's produced in Chateau Lafite Bordeaux. It's a 1987 Cabernet Sauvignon Dry Red," Douglas said slowly.

Li Tianrong's eyes suddenly widened. Her face was full of disbelief. "1987?! Impossible … Little Chen, you must be mistaken. My wine has been appraised by a professional wine appraiser in France. The year can't be wrong! "

Li Peijiu's long eyelashes fluttered. She seemed to have found an opportunity. She retorted, "Humph, I know he doesn't know. He's just making up nonsense."

Chen He smiled faintly. He didn't explain further. Since the father and daughter didn't believe him, there was no need for him to say more. There were two kinds of people in the world who knew the best about red wine. One was the wine appraiser, and the other … was the owner of a winery … And Chen He happened to be the owner of a famous winery in France …
