At eight o'clock in the morning of the 15th, the hall on the first floor was already bustling. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Local journalists, vintners and wine estate owners have already arrived, waiting for the start of the race. Although this wine tasting is only a wine tasting within Provence, because of the special status of French red wine in the world, even if it is only a wine tasting within Provence, it still has a lot of influence in the industry.

The hall is very well lit, but not glaring. Standing in the hall, looking at the bustling crowd, even Ye Chen's nervous mood couldn't help but relax.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries with people they knew, people sat down in the seats they had already set. In front of these people, there is a simple high platform with a table and chair, which is probably the seat of the judges. As soon as the audience below was ready, more than a dozen judges in formal clothes also walked onto the high stage and sat down one after another.

"Those people are so old." Looking at the judges opposite, Mebis whispered in Ye Chen's ear.

Looking at Mebis's appearance, Ye Chen smiled lightly and explained: "These people are all authoritative figures in this industry, and their age also means that they are experienced. ”

"So are they going to give us high marks for our wine?" After all, the wine is made by itself, so Mebis is very concerned about this issue.

"Of course, Person's wines are the best!" Seeing that Mebis was a little nervous, Ye Chen said with a smile, relieving her nervousness.

For the purpose of protecting them, after going back yesterday, Ye Chen did not talk to the three girls about Milani.

"Hmm!" Hearing Ye Chen's encouragement, Mebis clenched his pair of small fists hard, puffed out his eyes and nodded vigorously.

"Hahaha, that's the funniest joke I've ever heard today, Poyson's wine is delicious? If it tastes good, how can it still be downgraded by the Ministry of Agriculture? As soon as Mebis finished speaking, a snarky voice rang out.

Ye Chen and the others looked up and found that it was a young woman who spoke, the woman was not ugly, and she was dressed very fashionably, but what she said was a little difficult to accept.

As soon as the woman finished speaking, several people sitting next to Ye Chen looked at him, and when they looked Ye Chen up and down, several people immediately whispered.

"It turns out that they are Château Person, I said why they are so dirty."

"Château Person? I'm curious how they got the invitation to the tasting, and they didn't come by themselves. Ha ha. ”

"I thought this year's wine tasting would be boring, but now that Château Person is here, it will be interesting. At least it would be hilarious, wouldn't it? ”

It was only a few seconds, and Ye Chen felt that he had instantly become the center of public opinion. In fact, even he couldn't figure out what was going on, and everyone's cold words fell into his ears, instantly making Ye Chen's old face blush.

The three girls on the side reacted even more violently, Mebis clenched her small fists and looked at the people around her viciously, and Anna had a cold expression, as if she was looking at a group of dead people. Lil grabbed the chair that was taller than her body and turned her head to make a move.

"Hey, what are you doing!" Seeing that Li'er was about to run away, Ye Chen couldn't care about being embarrassed, he hurriedly grabbed the chair in Li'er's hand.

Li'er turned her head to look at Ye Chen, and shouted angrily, "I'm so angry, I'm going to smash them into meatloaf!" ”

"Woman, you don't need to do anything about this kind of trivial matter, I'll just do it!" Ye Chen knew that Li'er, a little girl, had a very strong self-esteem, so he didn't immediately order her to put down the chair, but satisfied her self-esteem first.

Sure enough, Ye Chen's strategy was very effective. After Ye Chen finished speaking, Li'er thought briefly and put the chair back in place.

"You're right, it's better for you to do this kind of trivial matter." After finishing speaking, she sat firmly in her chair and watched all this coldly, really a master's posture.

After appeasing the little girl, Ye Chen poured out his efforts to ponder the woman who had sarcastically mocked him just now. However, he stared at it for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out the identity of the other party, but thinking of the information Raphael had recently provided to him, he still barely guessed the identity of the other party.

"You must be Miss Alice of Château Millet, but I don't understand what the quality of Château Person has to do with you, why do you make sarcastic remarks in front of so many people?" Ye Chen was already determined to operate on this brainless woman, so he used very sharp words when he came up.

Alice is not very good at quarreling, she is only good at messing around, and when she was asked by Ye Chen, she raised her face and said proudly: "Because of the fact that I said, if the quality of the wine of the Posong Winery is good enough, the Ministry of Agriculture will not downgrade you." ”

But even so, her words were echoed by most of the people present.

"The downgrade of the Ministry of Agriculture shows that the quality of Person's wine has deteriorated to a certain extent."

"Miss Alice has a point."

Looking at the faces of the people around him, Ye Chen did not refute Alice this time, but leaned back in the chair expressionlessly, no longer arguing with her.

"Ye Chen, why don't you quarrel with her?" Li'er asked with an anxious look on her face and tugged at Ye Chen's sleeve.

"This group of people has preconceived notions that they will find ways to discredit us no matter what I say. In this case, instead of arguing meaninglessly, it is better to wait for the outcome of the game to speak. ”

"And what do you think the outcome of the game will be?" An unfamiliar voice beside Ye Chen suddenly asked.

"I don't know the other results, but I know we're going to win the championship!" Sitting on the chair, Ye Chen said confidently.

Hearing Ye Chen's words, the other people beside him sneered again, no need to think that these people must be laughing at Ye Chen's arrogance in their hearts.

"Champion? Haha, that's a funny joke. Looking at the expressionless Ye Chen, Alice said with an arrogant smile.

Ye Chen and Alice's quarrel was just a small episode in the wine tasting, while they were arguing, a French beauty as the host had already walked to the stage with a microphone, she briefly introduced the people who came to participate in the wine tasting, and then announced the special rules of this year's wine tasting.

"In order to rule out other influences, the organizers have decided to implement blind tasting this year!"

"Blind tasting!"

People were a little surprised to hear this rule, after all, the previous rules have been in use for many years, and it is rare for the rules to be changed suddenly on the day of the competition.

However, unlike others, when he heard the host announce the new rules, Ye Chen clenched his fists tightly below.

"Elaine really did it!"

"Blind tasting? It seems that Elaine really has faith in that guy! Standing in the hallway on the second floor, Milani laughed softly when she heard the newly changed rules.
