Chapter 399 - 399: Romanee Conti
“There was no Romanee Conti in 1948.”
Bai Yun’s eyes widened as he shook his head in disbelief. “How is that possible? This is the wine my father gave me. How can it be fake?”
“Of course 1 don’t know if the wine he gave you is real, but this bottle of yours is definitely fake.”
In the end, Gu Man could not help but tell the truth. When she said this, she even glanced at Xiang Yin.
This person was bad. He could clearly tell that the wine was fake, but he did not remind Bai Yun and Cui Lin. It was as if he was waiting to see them make a fool of themselves.
Xiang Yin also sensed Gu Man’s gaze in an instant. The smile on his lips deepened.
Xiang Yin did not expect Gu Man to know7 so much about alcohol. He was suddenly curious. What did Gu Man not know?
On the other side, Cui Lin was still savoring the red wine in his glass. When he heard this, he spat it out. “Fake wine? Will something happen to me?”
“Young Master Cui, you’re a medical student. How7 can you not know if you’re fine?”
Cui Lin was too anxious just now. Only then did he react and hurriedly take his pulse.
Sensing that there w7
as nothing wrong with his body, he heaved a sigh of relief, but he did not forget to defend himself.“Some of them will only show7 symptoms later on. Moreover, Miss Gu knows so much. I might as well ask Miss Gu directly.”
Gu Man smiled and looked aw7ay. Bai Yun w7as still in a state of disbelief.
“How could it be fake wine? Could it be that my father lied to me on purpose? But that can’t be. He gave it to me when 1 was 18 years old. No matter how7 bad he is, he wouldn’t lie to me about wine, right?”
Gu Man looked at his absent-minded appearance and couldn’t help but remind him, “The wine might not have been fake at first, but you can’t prevent some people from having ill intentions and changing the real wine to fake wine.”
Bai Yun’s anger instantly burned. He slapped his thigh and w7as about to settle scores when he suddenly returned when he reached the door.
“Miss Gu, tell me how you could tell that this wane is fake? Tell me so that 1 can settle the score with them.”
“There was no Romanee Conti between 1946 and 1951. Due to the influence of spring hail and root aphids, the Conti Vineyard removed all the old vines in 1946 and did not resume production until 1952.”
At this point, Gu Man casually crossed her legs and stared straight at Bai Yun. “So, where did the DRC come from? Why don’t you think about it carefully? Was the bottle of wine your father gave you from 1948?”
Bai Yun w7as amazed when he heard this, but he also understood why Gu Man laughed just now.
There was no wine produced in this year at all, and he was still feeling smug.
Looking at the glaring year on the wine bottle, Bai Yun felt like a clown. His father loved alcohol, but he did not even know how to drink.
“I don’t know.”
Bai Yun’s tone instantly became a little depressed. He gave up on himself and even wanted to take the wine bottle and smash it on the ground, but Gu Man stopped him. “The authentic Romanee Conti bottle has an anti-counterfeiting symbol on it. This is also important evidence of your confrontation. 1 think you might as well call the bar manager over first. Won’t we know if it’s true after the confrontation?”
At this moment, Bai Yun’s emotions had calmed down a lot. He nodded and placed the bottle back on the table, but his gaze was much colder.
He took out his phone and tapped on it a few times before placing it on the table. His fingertips gently tapped on the table, as if he was waiting for something.
During this period of time, no one spoke. Bai Yun’s anger was too obvious. No one chose to anger him at this time.
After hearing Gu Man’s explanation, Xiang Yin’s admiring gaze landed on her.
Those who could come up with such an explanation must be very knowledgeable about red wine, not those who only knew a little about it to pretend to know something about red wine.
Gu Man felt Xiang Yin’s gaze and turned around to smile at him.
The lights in the private room were very dim. Only the faint purple light shone on her face, blurring her facial features, making her eyes especially bright in the night.
Through those eyes, Xiang Yin seemed to see the recklessness in the depths of her soul.
His Adam’s apple bobbed a few times before he finally looked away uncontrollably.
The heat on his face and the redness at the tips of his ears highlighted his current abnormality.
As the private room quieted down, his heartbeat gradually merged with the music that could be faintly heard from outside the private room.
At this moment, Xiang Yin was extremely glad that the environment was dark.
Gu Man tilted her head and looked at Xiang Yin, whose ears had suddenly turned red. She was a little confused, but when she heard the chaotic breathing in the air, she curled her lips.
This didn’t seem too bad..
