TDDDMFM Chapter 39: Lafite of 82
Li Zhi sat opposite, rolling his eyes. "You big idiot, can't even cut a steak. I swear, you're like a little kid... Xiner, he's old enough, why are you still doing this? He has hands, doesn't he?"
Zhou Xiaobei looked up and smirked. "Why do you care if my senior sister cuts my steak for me?"
"You..."
Li Zhi was speechless, glaring fiercely at Zhou Xiaobei.
Zhou Xiaobei finished a piece of steak. This kind of steak, with a bit of blood, cooked to medium-rare, covered with a layer of butter and Orleans-style seasoning sauce, was indeed flavorful. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough.
Not nearly as satisfying as a bowl of Lanzhou noodles.
"Waiter, bring me three more servings of this kind of steak," Zhou Xiaobei said, pointing to the steak on the table.
Li Zhi frowned. "I'm full, I don't need it."
"Who said it's for you? I'm eating it myself!" Zhou Xiaobei retorted.
Li Zhi: "..."
Li Zhi was speechless once again.
This guy was like a bottomless pit, eating four servings of steak alone.
Li Zhi couldn't stand Zhou Xiaobei, especially seeing Ye Xiner's considerate care for him. He hated Zhou Xiaobei even more. He nodded in agreement with Li Zhi's suggestion. "Miss Xiner is right. We need to be cautious. We mustn't be deceived by scammers. There are many of them these days."
Zhou Xiaobei didn't like hearing this.
Calling him a scammer? Did these two have eyes on their buttocks?
"Li Zhi, don't say that. Whether Xiaobei is my junior disciple or not, I'm very clear about it," Ye Xiner said firmly.
Sun Chao added, "Xiner, I know a good private detective. Let me ask him to investigate. If it's true, we'll deal with it. If it's fake, we'll also find out. If he's really a scammer, I'll make sure he pays!"
After speaking, Sun Chao gave Zhou Xiaobei a cold stare.
Zhou Xiaobei sneered. "You're quite interesting. My senior sister doesn't suspect me, but you keep insisting. Are you a busybody?"
This guy was relentless. If you ignored him, he'd find a way to annoy you. Did he think he could easily bully Zhou Xiaobei?
"What did you say!" Sun Chao was furious.
This brat dared to insult him?
Zhou Xiaobei put down his utensils and looked at Sun Chao disdainfully. "I think the person my senior sister should be wary of is you. You're getting close to my senior sister with bad intentions. You dress up like a decent person, but you're full of bad intentions. Do you have any shame?"
Sun Chao's face turned ugly.
Looking at Zhou Xiaobei, his eyes were burning with anger.
If it weren't for Ye Xiner's presence, he would have exploded. Zhou Xiaobei's insult was intolerable. He would make Zhou Xiaobei regret it.
At this moment, the waiter brought a bottle of red wine. "Here you go, your red wine is ready. Please enjoy."
"Thank you."
Sun Chao temporarily suppressed his anger and took the red wine from the waiter, pouring a glass for Ye Xiner and Li Zhi respectively.
"Xiner, Miss Li, this is an authentic Lafite from '82. It tastes really good!"
Zhou Xiaobei tapped the table and sneered, "Hey, Sun guy, it seems like you forgot to pour me a drink?"
Li Zhi angrily said, "That's enough from you. Manager Sun poured drinks for the two ladies out of courtesy. You're a grown man with hands and feet, why should he pour you a drink? Besides, this is an '82 Lafite. Do you even know how to appreciate it?"
Zhou Xiaobei narrowed his eyes.
This woman named Li was really annoying, always opposing him. If it weren't for her being his senior sister's good friend... he'd definitely make her regret it.
"Fine, I'll do it myself."
Zhou Xiaobei poured himself a full glass of wine from the decanter, glug-glug-glug.
The red wine was about to overflow.
Seeing this scene, both Li Zhi and Sun Chao showed disdain on their faces, even the waiter couldn't bear to watch.
Who drinks wine like that?
Wine should be sipped slowly and savored, generally filling the glass to one-third.
"Dundundun..."
Ignoring the disdainful glances of the others, Zhou Xiaobei drank the entire glass in one gulp. After finishing, he frowned and said, "What is this stuff? It tastes terrible. Not as good as the knife-cut liquor from my village."
The waiter shook his head.
"Sir, this is an authentic Lafite from 1982, definitely not fake. And you shouldn't drink wine like this. Fine wine is meant to be savored!"
"Are you saying I have no taste?" Zhou Xiaobei raised an eyebrow, sneering. "You just said this is an '82 wine. Let me calculate... '82 wine, it's been over thirty years. Clearly, it's expired!"
The waiter was speechless.
He finally understood that this guy was clueless, didn't know anything!
Li Zhi's face turned crimson. She wished she could bury her head under the table right now.
She silently vowed that even if Zhou Xiaobei was Ye Xiner's junior disciple, she would never bring him to dinner again.
Too embarrassing!
Sun Chao's expression was full of disdain.
At first sight, he thought Zhou Xiaobei was just a country bumpkin. Now he was sure!
He was indeed a country bumpkin!
But Ye Xiner didn't mind her junior brother's embarrassing behavior at all. Instead, she patiently explained, "Little junior brother, this wine hasn't expired. Lafite is a red wine produced by a Bordeaux winery in France, and 1982 was the best year. The grapes had the best taste, resulting in a very mellow and sweet wine. The Lafite we're drinking now has been stored since '82. Each bottle is precious!"
"Senior sister knows so much!"
Zhou Xiaobei grinned.
Of course, Zhou Xiaobei knew that the wine hadn't expired. He had just spoken casually earlier.
Li Zhi crossed her arms, looking coldly at Zhou Xiaobei. "Zhou Xiaobei, I told you, did you just come out of the village? Or does your village not even have internet? You're so ignorant, I'm really impressed by you!"
Zhou Xiaobei calmly replied, "You're right. I did just come out of the village. As for whether I understand or not, that's none of your business."
"You!"
Li Zhi was almost driven crazy with anger.
Sun Chao's eyes lit up, thinking of a good idea to humiliate Zhou Xiaobei.
"So you're from the countryside, huh? Oh, migrant worker coming to the city, right? Brother, you just came from the countryside, haven't found a job yet, right? No problem, our company is recruiting security personnel. You seem suitable. I'll talk to the HR department and get you a job. How about three thousand a month?"
