Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1115: Chapter 113: Confident off the Charts, Huo Yumeng

The big-bearded foreigner, Antonio, was incredibly excited and went up to give Bai Xiaosheng a solid hug.

This was how people in his country greeted friends.

It also signified Antonio’s recognition of Bai Xiaosheng and his immense admiration for Bai Xiaosheng’s displayed talent in wine appreciation.

Bai Xiaosheng knew this custom and, with a smile, handled it with ease.

This caused Antonio to smile and nod in approval, increasing his fondness for Bai Xiaosheng by another degree.

The guests on the scene stared with their mouths agape at this scene.

Is this for real!

The owner of the European winery comes out to confirm that Bai Xiaosheng is the one who is right?!

”My God, does that mean this young man can taste the ingredients and the method of brewing of the wine?”

”This... is simply unbelievable.”

”I thought he was just a novice, but it turns out we have a champion here!”

”I still find it hard to believe!”

The sound of discussions buzzed around them.

Surrounded by amazement, Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying just exchanged smiles.

Such scenes were not uncommon in days past!

”My heavens!” Jia Dazhuang exclaimed with an uncontrollable smile spreading across his face, his cheeks beaming with delight.

Who would have thought that brother Bai was so strong!

Not only did he beat Huo Yumeng?

No, this... this is a crushing victory!

Old Jia was so excited that he wanted to wave a flag and cheer for Bai Xiaosheng.

”This can’t be possible, I... I got so much wrong!” Huo Yumeng’s complexion was extremely unsightly, her beautiful eyes rounded in astonishment.

She was wrong, and so terribly off the mark?

Huo Yumeng looked at the wine glass in her hand, unable to believe it.

The one who found it hardest to accept was not only Huo Yumeng but also Qian Haoyu.

”How can you prove your identity!” Qian Haoyu pointed at Antonio and yelled, ”Saying that the wine is brewed by your winery, you... you present the evidence!”

Qian Haoyu’s thinking was bizarre, as he directly targeted the big-bearded foreigner, Antonio.

It seemed he wanted to prove that Bai Xiaosheng was cheating.

Zhang Yunyao’s face changed, and she immediately shouted sternly, ”Mr. Yu, mind your words and actions. Mr. Antonio is a distinguished guest of the Zhang Family, a noble person who must not be...”

Zhang Yunyao stopped talking because Antonio raised his hand, stopping her.

Zhang Yunyao was part of the Zhang Family people and being able to host this wine tasting indicated her high status.

If she spoke in such a manner and showed such absolute respect, then Antonio’s identity surely couldn’t be mistaken.

The guests saw this and even looked at the foreigner with some reverence.

After all, someone who could discuss business with the current head of the Zhang Family, Chairman Zhang Tianyu of the Zhang Family Group, definitely had no ordinary status and was not just a small winery owner.

”Your name is Qian Haoyu, and your father is Qian Chengshan, right?” Antonio asked Qian Haoyu with a smile.

Qian Haoyu was stunned.

How did this foreigner even know his father?

”Just yesterday, I met with Mr. Qian; he wanted to collaborate with me, but unfortunately, your Qian Family’s strength did not satisfy me,” Antonio said unapologetically, ”If you don’t believe my identity, you can call Mr. Qian.”

Upon hearing these words, Qian Haoyu was dumbfounded.

This big-bearded foreigner refused even his dad and said...

Their family’s strength was not enough!

The surrounding guests widened their eyes, staring at Qian Haoyu with odd looks.

Qian Haoyu only felt those gazes were filled with mockery. Although no one spoke, undoubtedly, many reveled in schadenfreude, laughing at his misfortune.

Qian Haoyu felt a mix of shame and anger but was at a loss for words.

Or rather, he didn’t dare make a scene in the presence of the big-bearded foreigner.

After all, that was the man whom even his father was eagerly trying to please.

Zhang Yunyao watched and sighed inwardly.

Qian Haoyu really was incompetent, utterly disgracing himself!

”Esteemed sir, this is my business card; I welcome you to visit my winery when you have time! You shall be my honored guest!”

Antonio ignored Qian Haoyu and turned to Bai Xiaosheng, even taking out a remarkably exquisite business card to hand over with a smiling face.

His attitude towards Bai Xiaosheng was utterly different from his treatment of Qian Haoyu.

”Good, I’ll definitely come by when I have time,” Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile, accepting the card without hesitation.

Antonio smiled contentedly, nodded, and turned to leave.

This foreigner was interesting; he could blend into the crowd to watch the excitement, speak out for justice, and then depart as soon as it was over.

He indeed had a bit of the knight-errant style found in novels.

Bai Xiaosheng nodded silently in approval.

Everyone looked on with eyes full of reverence as Anthony departed.

Zhang Yunyao even bowed slightly when Anthony passed in front of her, as a sign of respect.

Among those who had brought the wine, many attendants immediately followed Anthony out.

It seemed that this big-bearded foreigner had come incognito to see if anyone could identify his wine.

The outcome must have satisfied him.

The room was silent until the bearded foreigner had completely vanished from sight, and still no one spoke.

Qian Haoyu stood there, dumbfounded, struggling to regain his composure for quite some time.

”Miss, did I win this round of wine tasting?” Bai Xiaosheng asked with a smile, addressing Zhang Yunyao.

Zhang Yunyao smiled sweetly, extending her fair hand, fingers together, pointing at Bai Xiaosheng.

”This round of wine tasting, the winner is Mr. Bai Xiaosheng!”

She knew Bai Xiaosheng’s name and introduced him to everyone present.

Everyone turned their gaze toward Bai Xiaosheng.

Warm applause broke out.

Just now, Bai Xiaosheng’s performance had been impeccable, even earning high praise from the winery owner himself, who personally invited him over.

They had no reason not to admire him.

”Mr. Bai Xiaosheng, you’ve won this round,” said Zhang Yunyao, beaming, gesturing for an unopened bottle of Xueli to be sent over, and added, ”My name is Zhang Yunyao, you can call me by my name, or simply Yunyao.”

Bai Xiaosheng nodded with a smile.

Lin Weiwei stepped forward gleefully, taking the bottle of Xueli and flaunting it before Huo Yumeng and Qian Haoyu.

The two of them were so infuriated, their faces turned pale.

”You said it, you have to win them all to be the winner!” Huo Yumeng said through gritted teeth, looking at Zhang Yunyao and ordering, ”Start the next round right away!”

”Indeed, next round, you will undoubtedly lose!” shouted Qian Haoyu.

Without needing their urging, some of the Zhang Family servants had already walked in.

But this time, there were no beauties holding wine bottles, only two carts were pushed in, bearing some oddly-shaped special containers.

From the outside, the containers had the appearance of a not-too-small wooden barrel, but the material and structure inside were unknown.

The guests looked curiously.

”What kind of wine is this?”

”There’s no bottle, it’s in a barrel?”

”Could it be that the third round is beer?”

The guests exchanged glances, their curiosity sparking discussion.

Huo Yumeng also paused in surprise.

”This wine is quite special; it’s brought by one of our esteemed guests tonight at the Zhang Family. You’re quite privileged to taste it,” said Zhang Yunyao with a mysterious smile, having the champagne glasses brought over.

The glasses for this round were unusually crafted with slender stems, and the top formed a shallow, triangular champagne coupe!

These glasses, often used for cocktails, were also known as — cocktail glasses!

”Why use this type of glass?”

”Is that champagne or a cocktail inside?”

”Is that the packaging for champagne?”

”A cocktail? That’s even more absurd!”

The crowd was abuzz.

Zhang Yunyao smiled without saying a word, instructing staff to pour the wine from the container.

As the first stream of wine flowed out, a strange scent suddenly wafted around, silencing everyone.

The top wine connoisseurs among the guests, just by smelling that fragrance, revealed a kind of intoxicated intrigue in their eyes.

”I have never smelled such an alluring wine scent, yes, how enchanting!”

”I’m so curious to taste it! What wine is this?!”

A murmur of unrest stirred among the guests.

Huo Yumeng’s brows were slightly furrowed, as if she was deep in thought and recollection.

Suddenly, her eyes sparkled.

Yes!

This wine was no ordinary beverage; not everyone could have a taste!

Ordinary people wouldn’t even have heard of it, much less tasted it!

She herself had only had the fortune to taste it once.

And had never forgotten since!

Seeing that even Qian Haoyu was perplexed and Zhang Yunyao intoxicated and confused, Huo Yumeng felt more confident than ever.

”Among all present, I fear none know but me,” she thought with immense pride.

Meanwhile, Bai Xiaosheng also furrowed his brow, full of doubt.

He was familiar with this wine, too.

Could it be...”Encounter”?
