I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 2224 Settlement
"Okay, but my stomach is not very good. If I drink your Haoyue wine and get hurt, you will have to compensate me." Liu Jun said with a smile, with a teasing look in his eyes.

He didn't really seem to be worried about his body, but more like he was testing or amusing himself.

Jin Yueyue outside the door gritted her teeth and muttered to herself, "Damn it, you still have something bad happen after drinking, why didn't you drink yourself to death? This guy is really good at finding faults. Is it too late for me to poison him now? Humph, but forget it, I can't ruin the big thing just because of a momentary anger."

Although her heart was in turmoil, Jin Yueyue knew very well that she must not show any displeasure on the surface.

She took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, put on a professional smile, pushed the door open and walked into the yard.

At this time, Liu Jun, Xu Baoer and Yao Guangxiao were sitting leisurely under the big locust tree in the yard, enjoying the coolness. They were chatting and laughing, as if they didn't see Jin Yueyue coming in.

The waiter behind Jin Yueyue gently placed a pot of Haoyue wine on the stone table, then respectfully left the yard and closed the door. The whole action was smooth and there was no drag.

From the moment she entered the room, Jin Yueyue carefully looked at Liu Jun and the other two. The more she looked, the more surprised she became. It was obvious that the clothes Liu Jun and the other three wore were not ordinary. The exquisite embroidery, smooth lines, and unique fabric texture all revealed their nobility and extraordinaryness. This made her wonder about the identities of these three people.

"Could they really be some big shots in the Divine King City? Or disciples of some secretive big power?" Jin Yueyue pondered in her heart. Her eyes moved back and forth between Liu Jun and the others, trying to find more clues from their behavior and words.

However, Liu Jun and the others did not seem to notice Jin Yueyue's gaze. They were still immersed in their own world, enjoying this rare tranquility and leisure. Seeing this, Jin Yueyue could only put away her curiosity and surprise, and walked to the stone table with a smile and stood there.

"My distinguished guest is really good at joking. Our Haoyue wine is carefully brewed with a variety of precious medicinal materials. It is very beneficial to the body." Jin Yueyue broke the silence by pretending to be relaxed. "Come on, let me pour for everyone." As she said that, she picked up the wine pot and filled Liu Jun, Xu Baoer and Yao Guangxiao with wine in turn.

Liu Jun took the exquisite wine glass. The liquid in the glass had an alluring luster. He took a sip gently, but his brows involuntarily frowned slightly, as if he tasted something unsatisfactory.

"This wine doesn't taste good." Liu Jun's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone present.

Seeing this, Xu Baoer also picked up her wine glass curiously and took a sip like Liu Jun. Her expression suddenly became a little strange. She was startled for a moment, then stuck out her tongue, as if she was slightly burned by something. She quickly pushed the wine glass aside and stopped trying.

Yao Guangxiao seemed much calmer. He sipped the wine in his hand silently, his eyes deep, as if he was savoring the years and stories in the wine. He didn't say anything, just sat there quietly, as if he didn't care about Liu Jun's evaluation, or maybe he had his own unique insights.

In fact, this wine is considered a good wine in the eyes of ordinary people, with a strong aroma and mellow taste, which is enough to make people have endless aftertaste. But in the eyes of those connoisseurs who really know how to taste wine and have tasted all the fine wines in the world, this wine may not be ranked, lacking some amazing unique features.

Yao Guangxiao didn't know what Liu Jun was up to today, so he chose to remain silent and quietly observe Liu Jun's every move. He believed that time would give the answer.

Jin Yueyue stood aside, clenching her fists, trying to resist the urge to punch Liu Jun. This Haoyue wine was brewed by her personally, and every drop contained her sweat and emotions. Normally, everyone who drank it would praise her and praise her superb craftsmanship. But today, this guy actually dared to say that her wine was not good?
An indescribable anger and unwillingness surged in her heart, but due to the occasion and her status, she could only suppress this impulse and maintain her calm and elegance on the surface.

"Sir, have you ever tasted better wine?" Jin Yueyue suppressed her anger and forced a smile. Her eyes flashed with reluctance and curiosity, as if she really wanted to know what kind of experience this seemingly mysterious guest had.

"Of course." Liu Jun smiled lightly, with a bit of confidence and calmness in his tone. He didn't care why Jin Yueyue was angry. After all, it was obvious that the Haoyue wine was the unique wine of the Haoyue Restaurant, and it was very likely brewed by Jin Yueyue herself. He could understand that anyone would feel unhappy if their hard work was despised.

Liu Jun's gaze lingered on Jin Yueyue for a moment, and he continued, "Wine is the best delicacy in the world, and I have naturally tasted a lot of it."

Jin Yueyue frowned slightly upon hearing this, but then relaxed her brows and asked, "Sir, what kind of good wine have you drunk that is better than my Haoyue wine?"

There was a hint of provocation in her tone, as if she wanted to test Liu Jun's background.

Liu Jun smiled slightly and waved his hand. A dozen exquisite small porcelain bottles instantly appeared on the table. Each porcelain bottle exuded an attractive luster, as if it contained endless fragrance. He gently opened a bottle, and suddenly, a strong aroma of wine spread out, intoxicating.

"Here, you can try some." Liu Jun handed the opened bottle of wine to Jin Yueyue, his eyes flashing with anticipation.

Jin Yueyue took the bottle and took a sip. Instantly, her eyes brightened. This wine was mellow yet refreshing, fragrant and long-lasting. It was indeed the top wine she had never tasted before. She drank eight or nine bottles in a row. Each bottle had a unique flavor that was amazing.

"All this wine... where did you get it from?" Jin Yueyue's cheeks flushed slightly, she looked at Liu Jun in surprise, her voice trembling slightly.

She had never imagined that the mysterious guest in front of her had such profound wine tasting skills and such precious wine collection.

Liu Jun smiled and said mysteriously, "When you meet a good friend, a thousand cups of wine are not enough. These fine wines are naturally collected by me over the years. I am lucky to meet you today, so I will share some of these fine wines with you." Jin Yueyue felt a warm current in her heart when she heard this. She looked at Liu Jun in front of her, with gratitude and admiration in her eyes. She felt that she had met a true wine connoisseur, a true wine confidant.

"By the way, the wine you just drank is worth nine million God King coins. Don't forget to pay." Liu Jun suddenly grinned with a hint of teasing in his eyes.

Jin Yueyue was stunned and almost dropped the wine glass in her hand. "Didn't you say to share?"

There was a hint of disbelief in her voice. She had just been immersed in the joy of finding a confidant, thinking that there was some kind of tacit understanding between the two of them that did not require words.

Liu Jun shrugged lightly, his smile still undiminished: "Yes, I shared it, but I didn't say I wouldn't pay, and I just asked you to taste it, why did you drink it all? Besides, don't you know the value of these wines? Do you want to get them for free?"

His brows furrowed slightly, and there was a hint of amusement in his tone.

Jin Yueyue opened her mouth wide, and her eyes, which had just sparkled with joy, dimmed instantly. How could this guy be a confidant? He was clearly a hungry wolf in human skin! She secretly groaned in her heart, and a sense of anger at being deceived quietly rose.

"I have no money." After a few seconds of silence, Jin Yueyue finally spoke, with a hint of helplessness and despair in her voice.

The net income of her restaurant is less than 400,000 or 500,000 Divine King coins a year. This one drink represents the fruits of her decades of hard work.

Nine million Divine King coins, this number hovered in her mind, like an insurmountable mountain. Even if she was sold, it wouldn't be enough! She wailed in her heart.

The key point is that she felt that these wines were indeed worth this money, no, it should be much more than this money. Although the other party did not tell her in advance, he did not cheat her about the value of the wine. Every drop contained rich spiritual power, as if it could nourish a person's soul. How could such wine be ordinary stuff?
Jin Yueyue looked at Liu Jun, her eyes filled with anger and helplessness. She knew that she was really in trouble this time. But she was unwilling to accept it. Was she going to be crushed by a huge debt?

Liu Jun looked at Jin Yueyue's ever-changing expression and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"How about this, Boss Jin, you can consider using the restaurant to pay off your debts." There was a hint of temptation in Liu Jun's voice, as if he was pointing out a clear way for Jin Yueyue.

Jin Yueyue was stunned when she heard this. The restaurant was her hard work and her support for many years. Using the restaurant to pay off the debt? This would undoubtedly make her give up everything. But she also knew that apart from this method, she might not be able to come up with so much money again.

For a moment, Jin Yueyue fell silent. She weighed the pros and cons in her mind and thought about possible solutions. Liu Jun waited patiently for her answer, as if he had already grasped Jin Yueyue.

"I can't give it to you. You can ask me to do whatever you want, but I won't give you the restaurant." Jin Yueyue took a deep breath, with a hint of determination and helplessness in her tone.

Hearing this, Liu Jun raised a playful smile, slowly stood up, and looked down at Jin Yueyue, as if he wanted to see all her inner struggles. There was both teasing and a hint of seriousness in his eyes.

Jin Yueyue unconsciously took a few steps back, her body trembling slightly, her eyes staring at Liu Jun, her mind blank.

She had never experienced such a scene in her life. At this moment, the four words "heart-broken" were the most appropriate to describe her.

"Are you sure? You can do anything I ask you to do?" Liu Jun took another step forward, approaching Jin Yueyue, his voice in a low voice.

Jin Yueyue's heartbeat quickened, and she bit her lower lip tightly, trying to calm herself down. She knew very well that in this world where the strong are respected, she had no room for resistance. But even so, she was unwilling to give up her dignity and principles easily.

"I'm not that kind of person. If you want to possess me by force, I would rather die." Jin Yueyue said gritting her teeth.

There was a resolute light in her eyes, as if telling Liu Jun that she would never succumb to any threats or coercion.

Hearing this, Liu Jun couldn't help but roll his eyes and looked at Jin Yueyue with a helpless smile, as if he was looking at an innocent child.

"You're dreaming. Why would I possess you? I just want you to be my subordinate." Liu Jun shrugged, with a bit of helplessness and ridicule in his tone.

Jin Yueyue was stunned at first, then she smiled bitterly. She didn't expect that she would misunderstand Liu Jun's meaning. But even so, she still felt mixed emotions, both happy and disappointed. She knew that from this moment on, her fate might be closely linked to Liu Jun, whether she wanted it or not.

Liu Jun patted Jin Yueyue's shoulder gently and said in a gentle tone: "Okay, don't think too much. As long as you are willing, I will give you a chance to show your talents. As for the restaurant, I didn't intend to take it over. I just wanted to invest in it and participate in the dividends."
