The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 251 Burning (1)
Liu Mengdi glanced at the wine cup in his hand and saw a faint shadow of himself on the liquid that was glittering with a golden color. His eyebrows knitted tightly, showing his troubled expression.
“How can I stay so handsome even in my current condition?” He tried to calm himself by praising his own image, but the anxiety and sadness in his heart did not diminish. He then recalled his father who had died for her sake and a wave of extreme loneliness engulfed his soul, making his lips tremble with many emotions.
‘Dad! I will avenge your death! damn it! I will remove their existence from this planet!’ Liu Mengdi shouted in her heart as she subconsciously tightened her grip on the wine cup in her hand. If it was just an ordinary cup, it would have already broken into pieces due to the strength of its grip, but all the items inside Jiu Shen's shop were not ordinary items, including the cup Liu Mengdi was holding.
Jiu Shen could feel anger in Liu Mengdi's heart when he saw the young man. He had lived too long so he could already decipher what was on anyone's mind after seeing their faces. It was a skill he learned after living for an unknown number of years …
“According to Ren Shuang, Liu Mengdi's father died under the hands of the young man's uncle. I can understand his anger because this situation is not too foreign to me. In fact, I even caused a commotion back then ..” Jiu Shen muttered silently with a blank look.
Sleeping soundly in his arms was a little girl sucking on a bottle of milk. Jiu Shen stroked her short white hair gently as she continued to stare at Liu Mengdi.
Suddenly, Jiu Shen narrowed his eyes slightly while looking outside his shop through his spiritual perception.
Outside, he saw more than a dozen people wearing the robes of the Liu Family. Their faces were filled with fear as they looked at the shop in front of them.
“Patriark, someone told us that Young Ma-Li Mengdi was in the store, but did we really have to go inside the store to catch him?” One of the individuals spoke to the man who led them. This ‘patriark’ was one of Liu Mengdi's uncles and he forcefully took the position of patriarch after killing Liu Mengdi's father.
“Patriark, I think it would be better if we wait outside. Nothing good will happen if we provoke the woman.” Someone said with a frightened expression in his eyes.
Everyone immediately fell silent when they heard his words and even ‘patriark’ remained silent. They knew who the woman he was referring to was and it was because they knew him too well that they did not dare to enter the shop carelessly. However, ‘patriark’ hardened her expression as she said in a cold tone.
“I'm aware of the power of that woman, but we've wasted too much of our time and effort just to look for that little one! This is our only chance to catch him and we probably won't have a chance like this again if we let him. he escaped today!”
After saying those words, ‘patriark’ walked towards the store entrance under the stunned gaze of his subordinates. A few seconds after, they followed him into the shop with a nervous look.
Jiu Shen only glanced at them for a moment before losing interest. He closed his eyes and muttered to himself. “These people chose the wrong time to make trouble. Theia's mood was very bad after not being able to do anything to Liuli's father. I just hope he won't make a bloody mess inside my shop.”.
“Yeah! I think they are here for Young Master Liu!”
“Yes. The three people in front of it were Young Master Liu's uncle. They should have been here to catch him, but were they really going to catch him here?”
Liu Mengdi looked at the people who had just entered into the shop and the light in his eyes flickered evilly when he saw their faces. He took a deep breath and calmly placed his wine cup onto the table in front of him. He then smiled as he looked at the group and said.
“Uncle, to think that I will meet you here. Come on, wine is on me.”
The ‘patriark’ and his subordinates watched Liu Mengdi with complicated emotions, but none of them showed any pity.
“ Small, do you really think that we will never dare to catch you inside this store?! Because of you, I lost more than a few dozen of my men! You must be killed to take my Liu Family to a higher level! Your father is a fool and he is not fit to be a leader! You two are the same!” The patriarch said angrily.
Everyone watched the scene unfold with interest. None of them were worried because they knew that there was an existence facing the entire store with its sharp gaze.
Liu Mengdi's eyes narrowed upon hearing those words. He clenched his fists so tightly that veins protruded in his arms. Everyone inside the shop could see Liu Mengdi's figure shivering lightly as he looked at the group. They did not know if it was out of fear or vengeance, but even with their eyes closed, Jiu Shen knew what Liu Mengdi was feeling right now.
Anger.
Liu Mengdi suddenly laughed, leaving everyone confused.
“Hahaha! A fool will always be a fool! I overestimated you too much, but now, I don't have to worry. I don't even need to use my own hands to destroy all of you ..” Liu Mengdi said with an amused look.
The patriarch and his subordinates frowned when they heard that and they felt an uncomfortable feeling gripping their hearts tightly.
“If you are here just to cause trouble, then you better get away from this place before I lose control of my hand.” A calm voice floated inside the shop, making everyone inside goosebumps.
