For the first time in his life, Gu Shenwei felt that the wine tasted so sweet that it couldn't possible be the same wine that he had drunk with the Queen yesterday.
In order to reach this wonderful state, he had to first put up with the initial sour and spicy flavors of the wine, the thick smell of barbecued meat, and random noises he could not understand.
