233: Chapter 233 Getting Qin Ge Drunk?
Inside the guest dining room of Yunding Manor,
On the top-quality mahogany round table, a dazzling array of dishes was laid out, including the eight major cuisines of the Dragon Country, Western food, Sakura Country cuisine, and even refreshing Korean kimchi as a garnish; everything was available.
"Qin Ge, you really say one thing and do another. You said you weren't throwing a party, yet you've prepared more thoroughly than anyone!" Ruan Xingrou looked at the table full of sumptuous dishes and subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
She looked at the six martial sisters present and muttered to herself, "If only Eldest Senior Sister were here. She's the biggest foodie. With such a feast, her belly would surely be stuffed round!"
Luo Li thought of Eldest Senior Sister's exquisite Face, like a porcelain doll, and a doting expression couldn't help but appear on her cold Face.
Yes.
The first moment she thought of Eldest Senior Sister, Luo Li's beautiful eyes were filled with doting affection!
Phew—
Slowly exhaling a breath of fresh air, Luo Li remembered the focus of tonight. She stood up, picked up a glass of fine wine, turned to look at Long Lingyin, who was dressed in Warring States style clothing, and said with a stern Face, "Get up and apologize to Qin Ge!"
Long Lingyin stood up reluctantly. Following Second Senior Sister's lead, she tilted her snowy-white neck and drained a glass of fine wine in one go.
"Long Lingyin, what kind of attitude is that? You did something wrong, and you can't even say a simple 'I'm sorry'?"
Luo Li kept a cold and elegant Face, exceptionally dissatisfied with Long Lingyin's attitude.
Long Lingyin clenched her small fists resentfully.
Why should she say sorry?
If not for Sixth Junior Sister's help, her hands would be broken right now.
Not being angry with Qin Ge was already considered generous and magnanimous of her.
Why should she be made to say sorry?
Long Lingyin caught a glimpse of the indifference on Second Senior Sister's Face. She knew Second Senior Sister's personality; if she didn't apologize now, she would surely be driven away by her.
Her purpose for staying this time was to expose Qin Ge's true colors and make her martial sisters see the man before them clearly once again.
To make them spit out the 'bewitching soup' they had swallowed!
"Sorry," Long Lingyin muttered dully, without looking at Qin Ge.
Qin Ge tilted his head. "A simple 'sorry' and that's it? I saw that you even wanted to return to the Bright Moon Sect to plead for Chen Yuan? What, he betrayed us, helped Sakura Country extremists, and nearly got the Dragon Group's overseas members killed, and you're still unwilling even though his cultivation was merely crippled?"
Long Lingyin retorted indignantly, "He didn't know the identity of the President of Sakura Pink Investment Bank beforehand!"
"Besides, didn't the Dragon Group's overseas members escape without casualties?"
"Since no major mistake was made, at most let Junior Martial Brother make up for it by going to Sakura Country again to slay that President of Sakura Pink Investment Bank!"
Indeed, in her view, Junior Martial Brother had also made a big mistake.
But correcting one's mistake should be enough.
Why did they have to punish him so severely, even crippling Junior Martial Brother's cultivation?
Given Master's personality, if she learned the full story, the punishment would probably be even more severe than just crippling his cultivation!
"Is that so?" Qin Ge tapped his fingers lightly on the table with interest. "A simple 'didn't know' is enough to push all the guilt away completely?"
Long Lingyin gritted her teeth resentfully, her chest heaving, "When did I push Junior Martial Brother's guilt away completely? I said let Junior Martial Brother make up for his mistakes!"
Luo Li frowned and looked at Long Lingyin, saying dissatisfiedly, "Improve your attitude."
She took a deep breath, then looked at Qin Ge and apologized, "Qin Ge, don't be angry with my Third Senior Sister. Her feelings for Chen Yuan are exceptionally deep."
"Back then, Third Junior Sister caused the death of her own brother through a mistake. In her daze, she stumbled to the foot of the Bright Moon Sect's mountain and was led onto the path of cultivation by Master."
"Coincidentally, Chen Yuan bears an extraordinary resemblance to Third Junior Sister's brother."
"Third Junior Sister already felt guilty, so she channeled that guilt into making it up to Chen Yuan. I hope you can understand her feelings and not blame her."
Luo Li requested helplessly.
She wasn't afraid of Qin Ge not understanding Long Lingyin, nor was she afraid of him blaming her.
What she truly feared was that Qin Ge would kill her Third Junior Sister!
With Qin Ge's strength, no one in Yunhai City was his match except for her Revered Master.
Furthermore, if the grudge wasn't resolved this time, even if Qin Ge killed Long Lingyin in a fit of rage, she wouldn't know how to handle it.
On one side was... Qin Ge,
and on the other was the Third Junior Sister she had grown up with. She really couldn't accept the two of them becoming mortal enemies.
She was caught in the middle, feeling extremely conflicted.
That's why she forced Long Lingyin to stay tonight, hoping to resolve the grudge.
Ruan Xingrou nibbled on the Leopard Coral Grouper meat and whispered, "That dog Chen Yuan is really lucky to coincidentally look like Third Senior Sister's brother. If not for Third Senior Sister's Face, I would have crippled him tonight without Revered Master even having to act!"
Heh!
Qin Ge smiled without saying a word.
Of course Chen Yuan's Luck used to be good.
He is the Child of Destiny! And he hasn't suffered any Luck pollution yet.
With such Luck and opportunities, it was only natural.
But it's different now!
He hadn't intervened much in the Sakura Country side; it was all Chen Yuan's own doing.
Helping Sakura Country extremists, nearly destroying the Dragon Group's base, and even being betrothed to a 'meat tank' like Bogang.
His status as the Child of Destiny was already in jeopardy!
"Qin Ge, don't be angry with my Third Senior Sister anymore, I'll toast to you!"
Qin Huanhuan, who had arrived in a flaxen trench coat, had now taken it off and placed it on the rack. Her pure black, form-fitting long sleeves perfectly showcased her graceful upper body curves.
Beneath the full curves was a flat, smooth belly without a trace of fat.
Above the little black dress that wrapped around her perfect curves were high-waisted black stockings!
Qin Huanhuan looked at Qin Ge with resentful eyes. She seemed to be pleading for Third Senior Sister, but in reality, she looked like a resentful woman from a secluded boudoir.
It had been a long time since Qin Ge had made her pay her debt.
She was still anxious for her father to hold a grandson!
"Sit down, no need to stand up, I'm just not angry anymore!"
Qin Ge pressed his palm down, picking up his wine glass and getting ready to drink.
Shangguan Yuer quickly stepped forward, snatched the wine from Qin Ge's hand, and filled a cup from the wine gourd she carried with her, saying, "Qin Ge, drink this. This is our Bright Moon Sect's specialty, Three Lifetimes Peach Blossom Brew! It was brewed by our Revered Master using petals picked from a thousand-year-old peach tree before the rain. The taste is excellent!"
Luo Li frowned, "peach blossom brew? Fifth Junior Sister, where did you get this?"
Shangguan Yuer's eyes darted around. Knowing she couldn't hide it, she stammered, "Didn't I go back to the Sect last time to give Revered Master a flip phone? While Revered Master was messing with the phone, I took it."
Luo Li said angrily, "That's stealing!"
Shangguan Yuer shrunk her neck, "Between Revered Master and disciple, how can it be called stealing?"
Before Luo Li could continue her attack, Su Yaoyao hugged Luo Li's arm and sat down, grumbling, "Second Senior Sister, tonight is party time. If you want to blame Fifth Junior Sister, wait until after tonight. Brother Qin saved several of our lives; what's wrong with him drinking some peach blossom brew?"
Luo Li frowned, "Even if Revered Master drinks too much of that peach blossom brew, she would..."
Mmph—
Su Yaoyao quickly raised her hand to cover Luo Li's mouth, then stood up and toasted with a smile, "Brother Qin, Ye Yan is dead, and that Old Dog Zhuang was also killed by Revered Master. We've truly killed two birds with one stone this time. I toast to you as well!"
