The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 32 Famous Fat Cat, Ice
Jiu Shen's shop was crowded with people due to her rising fame. He just wanted to live a quiet life in the wine shop and drink wine to dispel his boredom. Who knew that a certain young patriarch had spread an exaggerated story about his wine shop, making many people very curious about the authenticity of the rumors.
Who was not curious about the wine that was able to make one penetrate through nature and dishes that had similar effects to cultivation pills? In addition, the wine shop also had two beautiful women who worked as servants and guards. Most importantly, the owner has a cute and adorable fat white cat who loves to drink milk.
After hearing the rumors about Ice, the eyes of the young women in Beltran City brightened with hope. They had already imagined Ice's cute appearance as they hugged her. Thinking of that, they left their homes and excitedly headed to Jiu Shen's wine shop.
That was also the reason why his shop was crowded with people.
As for Fatty Xue who lost consciousness a moment ago, she was still lying on the ground with blood flowing down her lips. Everyone made room for him for fear that someone would accuse them of what happened to the fat man.
“Isn't this Fatty Xue from the Xue Family? How could he lose consciousness? Did someone sneak attack him because of his wealth?” Someone from the crowd could recognize Fatty Xue's appearance.
The crowd revealed terrified expressions after hearing that he was someone from the Xue Family.
“What?! Piggy err, I mean that handsome master is actually Fatty Xue?! Quick, let's take him to the Xue Family!”
Several people in the crowd carried his body away from the scene. They were going to take him to the Xue Family. Who knows? They might even receive a reward from the Xue Family for saving one of their descendants.
The crowd split up to give them enough room to leave the scene. They did not even dare to covet Fatty Xue's treasure.

Meanwhile, inside Jiu Shen's shop, a group of young women were sitting on a table with bright smiles on their faces. One of them was holding a fat cat in his arms. The fat cat showed her adorable big eyes to them causing the hearts of the young women to melt.
“Es is so cute that I want to hug her forever!” The young lady holding Ice giggled while gently rubbing the Ice white fur.
The other women nodded in agreement while looking at the fat cat with shining eyes.
“Adorable cat! If only I could take him home.”.
“Me too, I want to bring Ice home.”.
Upon seeing the look in their eyes, the fat white cat showed a horrified expression. ‘Man, do not .. If I leave the store, I will not be able to drink the milk Jiu Shen gave me every day ..’
Ice glanced at Jiu Shen with a pleading gaze only to see her indifferently looking at him.
After being ignored by Jiu Shen, Ice showed a desperate expression while trying to escape the young ladies. It did not dare to use its power for fear of accidentally killing them. If that happened, Jiu Shen would definitely not give her any more milk.
Upon seeing that he wanted to escape, the young women giggled and let him jump out of their arms.
They didn't really plan to bring Ice in their house. They only said that because Ice was too cute…
Ice heaved a sigh of relief after escaping from the women. The plan was to act funny in front of the women to make them willingly give their food to her. Who knew that his genius plan would backfire and almost cause him to leave the store?
It then glared at Jiu Shen before hiding behind Hestia with a sad expression on its face.

Outside the shop, three silhouettes dressed in robes glanced at the entrance of the shop.
“The fourth sister, is this the shop you mentioned? It doesn't look amazing in the least.” Said one of them in a sweet but insulting voice. Upon seeing the name of the shop, the young lady laughed coldly in her heart. ‘What Lasting Egg? Why don't you just call yourself a God? The owner of this shop should be an impolite old man with bad taste. Boasting shameless like that! Hmph!’
“Fifth sister, do not underestimate this store. Although his name was somewhat famous, it was not excessive at all. Once you taste the wine sold inside, you will know. Especially their Deep Sea Spring Dew, I can still vividly remember two different aftertaste that left me several nights unable to sleep.” One of them replied in an infatuated voice.
“Your Majesty, the fourth prince is not exaggerating at all. Wine here is indeed a treasure ..” Said an old man in a soft voice.
The woman wrapped in a robe snorted in disdain. He did not believe their claims at all. The reason why he went here was because of Ice. He wanted to see if it was as funny as those rumors said. “Hmph! You two are just drunkards who like to drink wine. You've said the same thing to most of the wines you've tasted before. Absolutely nothing new.”.
The fourth prince and Defender Duanmu were confused by the fifth princess' words, but the fourth prince still replied. “Fifth brother, the wine here is different from any we have tasted before. Even the best wine here was many times larger than the Phoenix God Fire Wine belonging to the imperial father.”
The young lady remained silent as they stepped inside the store.
He was stunned as he went inside. ‘How does the space here suddenly get bigger?’
He suspiciously looked around the shop only to see a very clean environment with a calm and serene atmosphere.
Everyone was acting strange in the store. He even saw a group of mercenaries behaving like a cultured scholar. ‘Is this place really as magical as the rumors say?’ He thinks to himself.
