Lan Jue was a little surprised to find the Wine Master waiting for him in the foyer He welcome him in with a smile “Thank you”
“Eh?” Lan Jue blinked “Why so cordial?”
“Come with me and you’ll find out,” the Wine Master cryptically replied
Lan Jue chuckled “Well whatever the reason you can keep your thanks I’ll take a bottle of wine”
This made the Wine Master chortle, too “Fine, then we’ll share a bottle later Whenever you have time”
Lan Jue ell and truly shocked, but he kept it to hion deeper in to the Winery
Theytable they often drank at This ti for them, seated at the place of honor When Lan Jue saho it was, he stared ide yes and an open mouth It’d been no time at all!
“M-… what are you doing here?”
Seated on the other end of the table was none other the bane of Jue Di, the same woman who vanished at his request Luo Xianni, Lan Jue’s new adopted mother
Evidently this had been her destination after leaving Ziluo
She shot hilance “Call me what you’re supposed to call me We’re away from Ziluo and suddenly I’m not your mother anymore?”
The Wine Master, hearing this for the first time, slowly turned to Lan Jue and lifted a curious brow
Lan Jue aze with a sheepish expression “So, what are you doing here, mom?”
The Wine Master continued to look fro to say
“This used to be my home,” she answered “The shyster and I founded it Why wouldn’t I come back? You came back just in time Take a seat”

When everyone was settled, she went on “The fortune teller’s life has neared its end We used to be close, so I wanted to come and pay my respects I expect both of you to keep all of this secret
Lan Jue couldn’t help but interject “Will you be leaving after this?”
She turned her wide eyes his ways, the threat of violence ever twinkling in their depths “Are you saying you want me to leave?”
