Bu Fang was dumbfounded as he watched Ni Yan disappear in a hurry. The corners of his mouth widened into a grin. He was originally planning to discuss things with her so that she could be the appraiser of the fine wine he was going to brew… After all, Ni Yan was the only person he knew who had tasted 'Dragon's Breath' before.
”No matter what, Owner Bu's wine is already the best wine I've ever tasted,” Ji Chengxue said with a smile as he raised his cup toward Bu Fang. After giving his heartfelt praise, he drained the cup in one gulp.
Xiao Yue performed the same actions as well. They had never drank 'Dragon's Breath' or whatever before, so they were not clear which wine was superior between the two. However, compared to the Bejewelled Nectar Wine that they had before, Bu Fang's Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine was the best and nothing else was comparable. The two of them believed that seeing was believing.
Bu Fang nodded his head toward them in appreciation and said, ”I know that there's always someone better out there, so I won't let myself be blinded by arrogance. I'll work hard to research a new kind of fine wine. When the time comes, the two of you can come over to taste the wine. I believe it'll definitely surpass that 'Dragon's Breath' or whatever.”
Bu Fang's voice was very calm, like his usual way of speaking. It was a reserved confidence that did not needlessly reveal itself.
The eyes of Ji Chengxue and Xiaoyue immediately lit up and they nodded, one after another. The two of them were naturally overjoyed that they could become Bu Fang's wine tasters. After all, with the quality of Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine as an example, any wine that was meticulously created by Bu Fang would definitely be good.
Afterward, the two of them drank their wine as they chatted with Bu Fang. Even though Bu Fang's replies were still indifferent and terse as usual, they still had a good time since they had already gotten used to Bu Fang's mannerism.
After their wine was finished, the two stood up and paid their bill before bidding farewell with Bu Fang. With their hands held behind their backs, the two satisfiedly stepped out of the store and into the snowy world outside.
The winter wind blew past and caused the sleeves of their robes to flutter.
Bu Fang cleaned up the blue and white porcelain jars as well as the pile of plates that were cluttering Ni Yan's table. The corners of his mouth involuntarily widened into a grin. Even though that woman looked so beautiful and had a great figure as well, her appetite was frighteningly large. She was unexpectedly a genuine glutton.
”However… to be able to eat is a blessing,” Bu Fang thought.
After tidying up everything, he curled up on a chair near the entrance and watched the monotonous snowy scenery outside of the store. While waiting for the customers to arrive, he pondered over how he was going to develop a fine wine that could surpass 'Dragon's Breath'.

A group of beautiful figures were walking on the streets of the imperial city with their hips swaying. The white snow falling from the skies seemed to have turned into pink petals and a melodious and heart-titillating sound of bells seemed to be resounding in the ears of the pedestrians.
As their fair and delicate feet trode on the street covered by pure white snow, the layer of snow sunk a little but their delicate feet remained fair and sparkling clean. Red-string bracelets attached with bells were worn around their ankles and produced tinkling sounds as they walked.
”Clink, clink.”
In this cold winter with snow covering the entire sky, these five women all had pink gauze outfits. Their facial features were beautiful, and they were seductive and charming. As they swayed their bodies from side to side, their arousing figures were vividly displayed.
The eyes of the pedestrians in the area were almost popping out from their heads. The five beauties with voluptuous figures parading themselves were a feast for the eyes of many men. There were even some with lesser composure that had two streams of blood trickling from their nostrils, triggering coquettish giggling from the five beauties.
Xiao Yue and Ji Chengxue were standing with frowns on their faces within the crowd, watching the five enchanting back figures.
”The Joyous Union Sect is here as well, and they're even prancing about in the imperial city. If father was still around, he would've already executed these demonesses.” Ji Chengxue shook his head and softly sighed.
Once Emperor Changfeng passed away, these sects and factions were immediately buzzing with activity. Now, they were even brazenly swaggering around the imperial city. However, with the unstable situation within the imperial city, there was no one who had the time to deal with them.
”What is the group of women from the Joyous Union Sect doing here in the imperial city? Are they planning to participate in the fight over the throne as well?” Xiao Yue puzzledly asked with a cold expression.
Ji Chengxue chuckled while slowly moving forward and said, ”That second elder brother of mine has even accepted the Soul Sect, so what if he accepts another Joyous Union Sect? Perhaps, the White Bone Palace and Death Soul Palace would send their members here as well… He's ready to risk everything for the sake of the throne and has already stopped caring about the risk of asking a tiger for its hide.”
