I think Ruan Yichen will open his eyes and give an answer as before.

"Strange." Ruan Yichen frowns slightly and takes another sip. This time he stirs quickly in his mouth and shakes his head. "Really strange."

"Maybe, this time you can't guess it." Su Ni sips her lips, smiling. She says loudly.

"Finally, I find a bottle of wine that Ruan Yichen can't guess what kind of wine it is."

"The smell of this wine is very familiar. But it seems to be mixed with other smells. Strange!" With her head tilted to one side Su Ni looks at the logo of the wine bottle. She seldom touches wine except for entertainment. Her knowledge of red wine is still elementary. After looking at it for half a day, she doesn't find clues.

"This is a compound wine produced by the most famous bartender in Europe and Chateau Mocha in Australia in 1997. There are about 500 bottles in the same batch."

"By the way, it should be true. It has both the enthusiasm of subtropical black pineapple and the acidity of fruits near cold Polar Regions. It is good.” Ruan Yichen's mind gets active and he is suddenly enlightened. Looking back, he finds Gu Zechen standing in the vineyard. Su Ni smiles relaxed. But now when she looks at him, she steps back. After that, she stares at Gu Zechen with disbelief. Why is he here?

"Mr. Gu is better than me. You can know the origin of this grape at a glance." Ruan Yichen quickly returns to his normal mood and smiles at Gu Zechen. Gu Zechen is dressed in casual attire, with khaki knitwear and beige trousers. He looks clean. Standing in the weak sunlight, his whole figure displays a completely different temperament from his cold and gloomy image in the past. At that moment, Su Ni feels that the sunshine is dazzling. Gu Zechen does not directly respond to Ruan Yichen. His peaceful glance sweeps over Su Ni. Her panic, fear and shock are captured by him.

Later, Gu Zechen strides with his hands in his pockets. Everyone can see his arrogance in his eyes. "I bought half of Mr. Fu’s wine. But I have missed several bottles. They are here."

"Mr. Fu is a collector. I am lucky for I gained a few bottles of wine from Mr. Fu.” Ruan Yichen does not care about the sarcasm in Gu Zechen's words. But he shows much respect when he mentions Mr. Fu. Gu Zechen takes it amiss. Obviously, he disdains Ruan Yichen.

At this point, Su Ni looks at him and sweetly calls him husband. She naturally walks beside Gu Zechen and acts in a pettishly charming manner. "Why don’t you tell me?”

Gu Zechen looks at Su Ni and he smiles vaguely.

"I don't know. You are so free to attend cultural exchange." Su Ni goes pink.  Because in normal circumstances, she really doesn't need to attend. However, she has already promised Ruan Yichen in advance, so naturally she can not break her promise. She doesn't know how to answer, so she says truthfully. "This meeting is specially prepared by our company for Mr. Ruan, and it is my first time to come here."

Gu Zechen directly ignores Su Ni’s explanation, and his eyes rest on Ruan Yichen. There is sharpness in his eyes.

"Since Mr. Gu is interested in this bottle of wine, I would like to make the decision to let Mr. Gu take it home. Is it ok?" Ruan Yichen avoids Gu Zechen's observation without trace. He looks relaxed and he laughs, like meeting a good friend.

"No problem." Su Ni is nodding. Originally, it was a sunny day, but now there is clearly thunder and lightning. It seems to her that something is not in harmony from the moment they meet. She hurriedly mediates the dispute.

"No." Gu Zechen puts his hands in his pockets. He sees panic and tention in Su Ni’s eyes. It is quite different from her relaxed and contented manner before he came. Gu Zechen feels angry. Suddenly, he doesn't want to leave. Gu Zechen unceremoniously takes the goblet in Su Ni's hand and waves it gently in the sunshine, then gulps it down.

A few seconds later, Gu Zechen smiles. "The taste is good. Unfortunately, compared with other collections of Mr. Fu, it is just so so.”

"Although it can not compare with those wines which have mellow and long-lasting tastes, the compound wine naturally has its own flavor, which I quite like." Ruan Yichen answers.

"It seems that Ruan and I are not only different in hobbies, but also in outlooks." Gu Zechen suddenly narrows his eyes and squeezes some words from his teeth.

Gu Zechen hurriedly says. "Mr. Gu, you have misunderstood. This wine is what I love. I can find out its advantages regardless of whether it is new wine or old wine."

"So what? It depends on whether Mr. Ruan can always have it." Gu Zechen conveniently takes Su Ni into his arms, grinning.

Gu Zechen is silent and takes a shallow sip of the red wine. "Love does not mean possession. Of course, it naturally needs a man who can truly appreciate it. Otherwise, it is only covered by ashes and left in one corner. Mr. Gu, don’t you think so? "

"Although one thing is covered by dust, it has master. Will Mr. Ruan want to win people's love because you have bright eyes?" Gu Zechen is unfriendly and, the disdain in his eyes becomes a sharp knife towards Ruan Yichen. Obviously, they are talking about wine, but Su Ni still recognizes that there is something in their words. Only at this moment, can she say nothing at all.

Secretly, Su Ni gently pulls Gu Zechen's arm. From the first time they met, she found that relationship between Ruan Yichen and Gu Zechen was complex. After all, Ruan Yicheng is her main investor and the atmosphere shouldn’t be rigid. But Gu Zechen doesn’t care about Su Ni’s thought. Although he looks peaceful, what he says is a kind of provocation.

Gu Zechen sneers openly. "So what? If I don’t like it, I can flush it into the toilet now. Moreover, as for what I hate, no one else can taste a drop, though I have smashed it. "

Ruan Yichen nods casually. "Mr. Gu is overbearing."

"Since my wife prepares the meeting for you, Mr. Ruan should have a good taste. I will not accompany you." Gu Zechen’s hand still doesn't loosen Su Ni. He walks and his hand grabs Su Ni tightly.

Su Ni utters a cry and tries to persuade Gu Zechen again. But when she looks at the warning of his cold eyes, what she will say immediately changes. "Mr. Ruan, let me go first."

"Nothing." Ruan Yichen is generous. Gu Zechen’s pace is big and he walks fast. Su Ni stumbles following him. She is almost dragged by Gu Zechen.

When they reach a deserted place, Su Ni just feels wronged. She says. "Dear, slow down."

Gu Zechen stops after he hears that. Then Su Ni strikes her head on his chest. She rubs her nose with her hand and secretly looks at Gu Zechen's iceberg face with her eyes, thinking that how she upsets him.
