"My craving for wine was sparked by that red wine last night, Lin Jie. I want to taste another one with your senses, a red wine no less than the quality of the one last night!"
Lin Jie was stunned and said, "Lanruo, are you sure you're talking about drinking? I'm alcohol-sensitive, I'll get drunk with just one glass!"
"You just get drunk, it's not like you can't drink. What are you afraid of?"
Shen Lanruo teased Lin Jie and then cheerfully persuaded, "I'm not asking you to drink excessively, just taste. Tasting just a small glass is enough. Rember, the quality of the red wine must not be less than last night's!"
"Alright then!"
Lin Jie had already promised to try his best to fulfill Shen Lanruo's wish, so he had no choice but to agree bravely.
"Lanruo, how about the quality of those bottles of red wine in the ho wine cooler?"
Shen Lanruo scoffed, "Those wines are all of low-grade brands, compared to last night's, they'd barely make good mouthwash."
"You're really demanding!"
Lin Jie thought for a mont and said, "It seems I can only go to bigger vineyards to buy."
"Lin Jie, from my experience, that quality of wine isn't usually available at regular wineries." Shen Lanruo spoke softly in an expert tone, "Such quality wines appear partly in wine auctions where they are bid on by the rich, world-renowned hotels, wine enthusiasts, and collectors."
"And a large portion is directly supplied by original wineries to special clients and people of high status."
"I got my hands on such a quality wine before when I saved a high-profile patient's life and was gifted a bottle."
She reminisced with relish, "Thinking back to that experience of drinking that bottle, it was truly a world-class pleasure!"
Seeing Shen Lanruo's mysterious talk, Lin Jie knew such quality wine wouldn't be easy to find and said gloomily, "Do I have to ask Du Feixue, that neurotic woman?"
At the ntion of Du Feixue, Lin Jie couldn't help but rember those soft, warm lips, and his body involuntarily heated up a bit.
"There is another person you could ask; she might have so decent-quality red wine!" Shen Lanruo suggested.
Lin Jie imdiately beca interested and asked, "Who?"
"An Kexin!"
"She also represents and sells so well-known international dical equipnt brands, devices like MRI scanners, each worth hundreds of thousands or even millions of US Dollars."
Shen Lanruo analyzed, "When hospitals purchase such equipnt, there are usually so behind-the-scenes transactions and kickbacks involved."
"Doctors and hospital administrators mostly don't like strong liquors; they usually drink red wine and other light liquors."
"And since doctors and hospital administrators have relatively high incos, the red wines they drink are usually better ones. An Kexin, in order to secure business, might purchase so top-notch red wines through certain channels for gifting or use during crucial negotiations."
Hearing Shen Lanruo's sowhat reasonable analysis, Lin Jie took out his phone and said, "I'll call and ask. If she has it, that would be perfect, and I'll buy a bottle from her to fulfill your wish."
Weize Building, General Manager's Office!
Du Feixue was half-seated on the spacious executive desk, laughing so hard she was shaking!
"Kexin, you wouldn't believe it!"
"At that ti, Lin Jie's face was as red as a monkey's butt, and his body reacted, truly is such an innocent boy! His adorable look made almost want to pounce on him right there."
An Kexin frowned slightly and said unpleasantly, "You know Lin Jie's situation, his health has just been getting better over the past few months."
"His frail body can't withstand your antics, now that your throat is better, stop teasing him."
"Oh... oh, why do I sense a strong whiff of jealousy?"
Du Feixue twisted her body, glanced at An Kexin who was making coffee, and teased, "I heard soone really likes fresh young at! Lin Jie looks quite handso and could barely be considered a standard piece of fresh at."
"I'll tell you in secret, he did react, though I just felt it through the clothes, but I can assure you, he's not small down there!"
"Kexin, you should really consider!"
"A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory, go to hell!" An Kexin spat, but still handed her a cup of coffee!
Du Feixue took the coffee, got off the desk, took a sip, and tentatively asked, "Kexin, if you're really not interested, I'll make a move. You know, I'm not picky about either veg or non-veg!"
"You..."
Just as An Kexin was about to get angry, the phone on the executive desk suddenly vibrated.
She walked over, saw the caller on the screen, glanced at Du Feixue, took the phone, and stepped away from Du Feixue, answering the call.
"Hi, hello, this is An Kexin!"
"...Red wine? Hmm... indeed, I have so fairly good red wine prepared here!"
"The best bottle? You want to buy it? Aren't you..."
An Kexin smiled and continued, "Alright, I won't ask why! If you say you'll buy, that's too formal, I'll gift you a bottle... naturally the best one, I'm not fooling you..."
"...I'll just directly send the wine to your place!"
After hanging up, An Kexin's face showed a bit of reluctance and said, "Feixue, I can't have dinner with you tonight. A very important client suddenly asked for a bottle of fine red wine to entertain guests."
