Chapter 8 Wine Beauty

From their conversations, Li Jie did not get any particularly useful information. However, he did not pay attention to this, and did not return to his table, but continued to walk forward. On a certain table in the direction of his path, there was a beautiful face, obviously seeing Li Jie coming, but still twisting his head to the side and talking fiercely with the person next to him - that was Lydia? Hurst.

"Good evening, Mr. Hearst." Li Jie smiled and walked over and stood behind Lydia, but did not speak to her.

"Oh...... Good evening, Mr. Lee. ”

Paddy? Patty Hearst turned his head and replied with a somewhat surprised smile. He obviously didn't expect Li Jie to come over to say hello, and the father didn't expect the other party to come over for his daughter.

"Lydia has often mentioned you in front of me, and I'm finally lucky enough to meet me." Li Jie smiled passionately at Paddy? Hearst said.

"Ah, is that so?" Paidhurst was full of surprise, turned his head to look at Lydia Hurst beside him, from Li Jie's appearance, it was obvious that he was very familiar with his daughter, why hadn't he heard her mention it?

Lydia could no longer pretend that she didn't see Li Jie, and turned her head, her beautiful eyes wide, watching this hateful guy open his eyes and make things up. Paddy? Hearst apparently fully believed what Li Jie said, and was amused by his slightly flattering words, and immediately became enthusiastic with Li Jie. The former revolutionary radical, actor and writer has now reined in his personality, and although he still likes to spend time drinking and having fun, he no longer wants to be as idle as he used to be. His temperament has also become a lot gentler.

Lydia on the side tried to speak, but she didn't know how to speak. If her eyes could kill, Li Jie would have seen her dead 10,000 times. Paddy? Hearst chatted with Li Jie for a while before patting him warmly on the shoulder and walking to the other side to greet an acquaintance. I don't know if I intentionally created space for him and Lydia. But Li Jie must have been unceremoniously and sat down.

"Humph!"

Lydia was wearing a short gown with small gold sequins today, which complemented her long blond hair and fair skin, and was stunningly beautiful. However, this beauty was holding back the fire in her belly at the moment, and looked at Li Jie coldly, this rude guy actually dared to lie to his face. When did she talk to him about that, thinking that Li Jie was pulling back and forth without leaving a trace, making her father feel that the relationship between the two was extremely close, she had a little headache on her forehead.

"Dear Lydia, you seem to be a little afraid of me?" Li Jie smiled like nothing on his lips. This beautiful woman had not contacted him since the last time they met, as if she was deliberately avoiding him.

"Why should I be afraid of you? Are you a serial murderer? Of course, Lydia would not admit that she was hiding in this hateful creature, her heart had been stirred up by Li Jie, and she had even dreamed of him twice, and the red-faced dream was still very clear to this day, and she never dared to mention it to anyone.

"Huh?" Li Jie frowned slightly, and looked at Lydia at the same time. It seems that there is serious thinking about how to answer this question. As she slowly felt uncomfortable and wanted to speak, she suddenly asked with great seriousness. "It's not a good question to answer, I want to make sure first - how many kills are considered serial killers?"

"Poof!" Lydia was amused by the contrast between his serious expression and his funny words, and she couldn't keep a straight face anymore. Finally laughed.

"You know, you're the most beautiful when you laugh, Lydia." Li Jie looked at her with a smile, his eyes gentle and focused.

Lydia blushed, and he looked a little uncomfortable. From the moment this man appeared, her heart was completely touched by the other party. Could it be really the nemesis of fate, she was a little hesitant.

"I happen to have a bottle of 1971 Romani there? Kanti (?conti). I wonder if I would be able to invite the beautiful Lydia to taste it? Li Jie gently covered the back of Lydia's hand with his palm.

Lydia, of course, understood the consequences of her promise, and this man with magical powers was bound to gain an inch. However, the other party's palm seemed to have endless heat, which made her body a little weak, and she couldn't say the word anyway......

Before the dinner was over, the two slipped away early. The main purpose of Li Jie's visit is Sheila, which has been achieved anyway, and there is no point in staying longer. As for Lydia, she was just bored to accompany her father, and there was no need for it. Just to go goodbye, Paddy? Hearst looked at the two of them with meaningful eyes, and her cheeks burned like fire.

On the top floor of 432 Park Avenue, the butler Elliot and his servants set up the tables and chairs almost as quickly as possible, the white tablecloths and delicate wine utensils have been neatly arranged, and the slightly ambiguous candlelight has been lit, and even with romantic rose petals, under the beautiful lighting, creating a warm and emotional feeling.

Waiting for Li Jie to take Lydia's hand and walk up to the hanging garden, the bottle of Romani? Kande had woken up just right.

"Your father is such an interesting man, and he seems to be very much looking forward to the further development of our relationship." Watching the butler Elliot pour red wine for Lydia, Li Jie gently shook the wine glass in his hand to let the taste of the red wine volatilize more thoroughly, and said in a slightly ridiculous tone.

This guy began to talk again, he didn't seem to be so flamboyant at first, because the butler Elliot was beside him, Lydia had no way to refute, she could only glare at Li Jie with good-looking eyes, and signaled him to be more restrained.

"Eliot, go down, we'll do it ourselves." Li Jie took a sip of red wine and gestured to the butler Eliot.

"Thank you, Elliot." Despite her temperament, Lydia has not forgotten to express her gratitude to Elliot for serving the two of them.

"It is my pleasure, Miss Hearst, sir." Elliot owed slightly, took the maid downstairs with him, and left the huge hanging garden to Li Jie and the two, and now it is a real world for two.

"Can't you be serious, why didn't I see your true colors in the first place." Seeing that the butler and the maid had left, Lydia finally relaxed, half-joking, half-complaining.

"I thought you just liked me." Li Jie raised his eyebrows in surprise and laughed before Lydia got angry again, he clearly enjoyed the feeling. "Haven't you heard such a statement? Only in the most relaxed state can you see your truest self. ”

Lydia was completely struck down by his words, which were not more love words than love words, and she raised her glass like a flower to take a sip of red wine, slowly turning it in her mouth, savoring the taste of the wine.

"It seems to have the scent of a withering rose, which fascinates and falls, almost forgetting the concept of time, like a treasure left by God on earth." She said slowly in an exclamatory and intoxicated tone, savoring this precious wine and experiencing the indescribable taste.

What kind of alcohol will you regret for the rest of your life if you don't drink it?

To this question, many wine lovers have a surprisingly unanimous answer - Romani of the DRC (_de_la__conti)? Kande.

Among the famous wine regions in France, the most well-known and familiar is the Bordeaux wine region, represented by the top Bordeaux vineyards represented by the Château Petrus and Châtea au__rothschild u Lafite, which have been highly sought after by the wealthy in Southeast Asia since the 90s of the last century, and the price has been rising. But if you mention the Romani of the Burgundy appellation? When it comes to the Canti (la__conti) winery, even the owners of the top Bordeaux wineries pay their respects.

As a result, it is often said that this super vineyard in the heart of the sub-region of the Burgundy region of Uits alone is enough to elevate the Burgundy appellation to par with Bordeaux and is widely regarded as the world's top red wine vineyard.

"Once you're used to Burgundy, you'll never be able to go back, and Romani? Kanti, definitely the end of the world. Li Jie gently pinched the pillar of the red wine glass, and touched the glass with Lydia, the crystal wine swayed and rippled in the glass, vaguely reflecting the reflection of the two.

The overall production of the DRC winery is very small, and the popularity of the products is basically not available, and other Latashi (la_tache) and other products may be available, while Romanée-Conti can only be bought at large wine auctions. The 1971 Romanée Conti bottle in Li Kit's hand was sold for $47,000 from Zachys in New York.

Is it no wonder that the world's most influential wine critic, Robert? Robert Parker called it "millionaire's liquor, but billionaires can afford it!"

"In fact, the process of tasting red wine is like the process of a man getting to know a woman, which can be roughly divided into four levels - first look, with an affectionate gaze, to appreciate the crystal clear fragrance; Hug again, shake slowly and gently, and let the wine and the air come into full contact; Then it's a light sniff to move the glass to the end of your nose to feel the lingering fragrance; Finally, take a sip and savor the charm. ”

While his mouth was talking, Li Jie was also making movements in turn at the same time, but his eyes were always focused on Lydia. (To be continued)
