Rebirth of a Villainess 140 Banquet 26

As the sect leader of the GuBaiJin sect announced the Fox King's presence almost around the same time the young mistress of the YuanLi sect was pouring wine into her cup.

"Ha!"

Xu Hui cried out when the wine hit the back of her throat.

"What is it?! Lady Li?!"

The sect leader of the GuBaiJin sect asked while turning to face the daughter of Li Guoliang who seem to be in some sort of distress.

"Sect Leader Jin, I forgot that the Kaojiu wine is a little strong for me. I have to mix half water and half of the wine before I can drink it. Unless I'll end up walking about with no clothes on!"

To emphaize what she said, Xu Hui reached to pour water and wine from each of kettles on her table.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

After emptying the cup, she raised it over her head with it turned upside down.

"A pineapple osmanthus cake would have gone well with it. They are my favorite!"

Jin Ruimin looked at his wife not knowing what to make of words of the YuanLi sect's young mistress.

Hearing what Xu Hui said made Chen Yueming turn pale as it reminded him of his junior disciple sister. This made the WuYangChen sect leader to recall a memory from his past.

"Brother Feng! Did you bring the osmanthus cake with you?!"

The two BaoXu sect disciples sat under the tree to drink wine, as Feng Yueming pulled out a wrapped cloth from under the sleeves of his robes, handing them over to the female disciple beside him. Although it was not appropriate for them to be in close contact in private, the two snuck out to eat together.

Unwrapping the white cloth which revealed ten golden brown diagonal cake stacked together.

"Half wine half water and a slice of pineapple osmanthus cake are my favorite! Brother Feng you do know me well!"

Smiling broadly at the disciple that sat by her, Xu Hui then took a piece of it and began chewing slowly at the cake. After finishing the cup of wine, she turned the cup downwards with it over her head.

"I know that the kitchen doesn't make it, that's why I went to get some for you from market stall. Is it to your liking?"

With her mouth full of cake, Xu Hui merely nodded in answer to what Feng Yueming said, who laughed back at her.

"Slow down! Slow down! We still have a little more time before curfew!"

The two laughed together, as one drank an undiluted wine while the other drank a watered down wine with a piece of osmanthus cake.

Chen Yueming was forcefully pulled back from the memory when he heard the voice of the GuBaiJin sect leader.

"Lady Li, do forgive our lack of attention to what could have caused you shame. I and Lady Jin feel honored to have revealed to us your low tolerance to Kaojiu wine. If you want we can have one of the servants bring you a lighter wine. Since we don't have the osmanthus cake that you like, would you like something else instead?"

Throughout the time Xu Hui spoke she carefully avoided making eye contact with Chen Yueming.

"Thank you, Sect Leader Jin, but this will do."
