Chapter 199 False Alarm (1/2)

Jiuyin was a restaurant-style bar. In recent years, this kind of restaurant was popular, such as the famous Hutaoli and so on. When Xiao Ruoqing and Lin Su finished their dinner, they sat there to continue drinking and listening to music.

Qin Sheng arrived hurriedly. Because he was seeing Uncle Zhuang and Mr. Cao today, he wore a decent suit. After all, it was important to leave a good impression for the first meeting. This is a habit and also an attitude that a young person must have.

Qin Sheng walked into the bar and found Lin Su. Lin Su had similar habits as him. She would like to sit either by the window or in the corner. At the same time, Qin Sheng also saw Xiao Ruoqing, who was sitting at the opposite side. So he slowly walked over to them with a smile.

”Hello.” Qin Sheng took the initiative to say hello.

Lin Su and Xiao Ruoqing had already gotten up. Xiao Ruoqing smiled and looked at Qin Sheng. Lin Su took Qin Sheng's arm and said, ”This is my boyfriend, Qin Sheng.”

”And my best girlfriend, a teacher at the Chinese Academy of Fine Arts, a talented woman, Xiao Ruoqing.” Lin Su also introduced Xiao Ruoqing.

Qin Sheng nodded slightly. ”Sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time. I had something to do that I just finished.”

”That's okay. I haven't seen Susu for a long time. We've just been sitting here, drinking and chatting since we finished dinner.” Qin Sheng left a good first impression on Xiao Ruoqing. She smiled and said, ”Sit down and chat. What would you like to drink?”

The waiter had already come over with the wine list. Qin Sheng unfolded the wine list and ordered a glass of Godfather. During this time, he just drank a little alcohol, not as carefree as before because there was no one whom he felt was worthy of drinking a lot for.

”I was saying to Susu just now, what kind of man could catch our beautiful girl, and now I finally see the man. It really makes a woman feel envious.” Xiao Ruoqing joked.

Qin Sheng replied shyly, ”It may be the good fortune of the previous generation that enabled me to meet her in this life. Sometimes I feel that it's incredible. I'm wondering if I have run out of all my luck.”

”I see you are just showing your cleverness after taking advantage of it.” Xiao Ruoqing grinned.

Lin Su held Qin Sheng's hand tightly and did not relax her hold on it. She said, ”Ruoqing, don't bully him.”

Xiao Ruoqing pouted and said, ”Hey, you're starting to protect him. We have been friends for more than 20 years, yet you value boyfriend over your friend. Well, I am jealous.”

The two beautiful girls played around and laughed. It was also a beautiful scenery.

Their place near the window was relatively dark, so Qin Sheng did not notice that so-called acquaintance. But this so-called acquaintance had been staring at Qin Sheng all the time. He was surprised to see this man in Hangzhou.

The man hesitated for a moment and called the waiter over and said directly, ”What is the most expensive red wine here?”

There were two friends sitting with the man, a man and a woman, who didn't look ordinary. They also noticed that he had been staring at the man who just came in. They asked subconsciously, ”Is he your acquaintance?”

”He's a friend that I have somewhat of a relationship with,” said the man, not telling the truth. Then he looked at the waiter, awaiting his answer.

A woman, or it should be said a girl, said coldly, ”It is impossible to have good wine here. Maybe it is all fake. You don't know much about it. Just let me do it. You don't have to be a sucker.”

This non-mainstream girl took the wine list and shot a glance at it. She said, ”I want the 12-year-old white horse from the Saint-Emilion region. This should be the best wine in your restaurant.”

”Madam, you have good taste. Our boss also likes the red wine of Chateau Cheval Blanc. This is one of the only two bottles left.” The waiter flattered her hurriedly. This bottle of wine was nearly 5,000 dollars. People who came here to drink would not choose such a bottle of expensive wine stupidly. Their bar had not reached that high of a level. It was the first time he saw someone ordering such an expensive red wine since he had come to work here. He thanked his boss, who had left two bottles of this red wine here, otherwise, he would have been shamed today.

The non-mainstream girl said coldly, ”What do you talk so much?”

The waiter smiled resentfully.

The man took out his credit card and threw it to the waiter, then pointed to Qin Sheng's table. ”Then give the red wine to the gentleman at that table.”

After that, he took out hundreds of dollars and handed them to the waiter. ”This is for you.”

The waiter was shocked and stunned again. What was going on here? He ordered such an expensive wine but he did not drink it, and he gave it to someone else. Come on, rich people were really good at throwing their money. He dared not say anything and left with his tip.

Qin Sheng, Lin Su, and Xiao Ruoqing were chatting happily. Artsy young women were always like chicken soup for the soul. Qin Sheng, a graduate of the philosophy department, was a professional. Xiao Ruoqing was completely attracted by Qin Sheng and listened to him fixedly.

At this time, the waiter took the white horse that was collected by his boss over to them. And not waiting for the waiter to speak, Xiao Ruoqing, who was the host tonight, frowned. ”This is wrong, we didn't order red wine.”

The waiter pointed to the guest who was not far from the window. ”That guest over there gave it to this gentleman.”

It was normal to see someone order wine for beautiful women. It was a common routine for picking up girls. There were two beauties at this table. So it was not surprising that there would be some rich boys that sent wine to them. But it was for Qin Sheng. That was like The Arabian Nights. After all, Qin Sheng did not have any friends in Hangzhou. Was the guest at that table gay?

After listening to the waiter, Qin Sheng, Lin Su, and Xiao Ruoqing all looked at the table at the same time. When they saw the man who gave them the wine, Qin Sheng's face instantly cooled down, followed by a kind of vigilance and nervousness. He had just arrived in Hangzhou on his first night, would he have a fight to the death so soon?

Because this man was not a friend but an enemy...
