The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 74 Liu Mengdi Meeting the Second Prince
“Welcome to The Immortal’s Wine, honored guests. What do you want to order?” Hestia smiled brightly as she glanced at the group of the second prince.
He then glanced at the jade pendant he was wearing for a moment before he retracted his gaze from it.
The second prince felt his gaze which made him feel a little nervous. “Ah-where is the menu, young lady?”
Hestia giggled and pointed in a certain direction as she said. “You can see our wine price on that small whiteboard.”
The second prince followed the direction he pointed and was shocked, but he did not show it outwardly.
“Can you give me order Deep Sea Spring Dew and fifteen Frozen Origin for my men?” The second prince said with a smile.
Hestia nodded and replied. “No problem, honored guest. And, is there anything else you want to add?”
The second prince shook his head and said. “No, but ah-may I ask you, young lady?”
Hestia raised her eyebrows in surprise, but she still replied. “Sure. What's up?”
“Do I have the honor to talk to the owner of this store?” The second prince asked softly.
Hestia put on an apologetic look as she replied. “I don't know about that, honored guest. Our master is usually busy and rarely takes the time to talk to someone, but I can tell him about this.”
The second prince sighed regretfully while shaking his head. ” Huh. In that case, we will only enjoy wine here.”
The leading soldier escorting the second prince frowned. He was about to stand up when he felt the second prince's gaze attached to him. He sighed deeply and remained seated in his chair while looking at Hestia with a frown.
Hestia smiled at the glaring attendant before she went to the wine cellar to get their order.
While walking to pick up their wine, Hestia thought to herself. ‘I have to tell you about jade pendant.’
Inside the wine storage, Jiu Shen was still busy distributing the Frozen Origin wine liquid inside the display bottle when he saw Hestia go inside.
“Greetings, sir.” Hestia greeted Jiu Shen while bowing respectfully.
Jiu Shen took a quick glance at him and waved his right hand as he said. “Don't mind me and just do your job.”
“Master, there's someone with that jade pendant. She should..”.
“I know. I already felt his presence as he stepped inside the store. Don't worry about his identity and just take their order. Whoever enters the store is our customer no matter what their identity is. Now go and get their wine.” Jiu Shen interrupted his conversation.
“Ya sir.” Hestia acknowledged Jiu Shen's words while bowing respectfully.
This is what he does when he is bored.
“This is your order. Fifteen Frozen Origin and one Deep Sea Spring Dew. Enjoy.” Hestia slowly placed their order on the table as she spoke.
“Thank you, young miss.” The second prince said with a friendly smile to Hestia.
Hestia smiled sweetly at their group and left.
“Isn't that guy the second prince? Why is he here?” Liu Mengdi who was enjoying his wine at a different table was shocked upon seeing the second prince's entourage.
“Let's go and salute us to him. Although his military strength was weak, he was still an imperial prince and had the blood of the Silveria Imperial Family flowing down his veins. In addition, there is something about this man that I cannot understand. . His group was the weakest among the emperor's three eldest sons, but my instincts say that this man is dangerous.” Liu Mengdi added with a serious look as she stood up from her seat. He was only here with all of his trusted subordinates, so he did not mind talking about what was on his mind.
The people from the Liu Family were shocked by the high judgment their young master had given the second prince. Their young master might be capricious but he was someone endowed with extraordinary intelligence and a high talent for cultivating. They treated his words seriously no matter how difficult it was …
Liu Mengdi stopped in front of the second prince's table and bowed respectfully. “Liu Mengdi of the Liu Family greets His Highness the Second Prince.”
Liu Mengdi's men followed his actions as they spoke in unison. “We welcome His Highness the Second Prince.”
The second prince looked surprised as he glanced at Liu Mengdi and his comrade. They had not interacted much before and had only met at special moments, so the second prince was a little surprised to see him here.
“Oh, I don't think that I will meet the young patriarch of the Liu Family here. Don't mind me and keep enjoying your wine.” The second prince spoke kindly.
“Because the second prince has spoken, I will return to our table. If Your Majesty wants to talk to me, just call my name.” Liu Mengdi said and was about to return to their place when …
“Young Master Liu, wait!”
“What's up, Your Honor?” Liu Mengdi asked curiously.
“Do you know something about the Earth Origin Dragon Tree?” The second prince inched closer to Liu Mengdi and asked in a whispering voice.
The latter's eyes widened at the question. He then glanced left and right to see if anyone else heard their discussion. Liu Mengdi then turned to look at Theia who was now staring at them with a deep gaze.
“Your Majesty, if you plan to take the Earth Origin Dragon Tree-you should immediately abandon that plan. This store is not as simple as it seems. Troubleshooter does not have a good ending...” Liu Mengdi whispered hurriedly. He already felt warm sweat on his back, but he still warned the second prince with good intentions.
Liu Mengdi already knew of the existence of the Earth Origin Dragon Tree within the shop, but he did not dare to think of stealing it foolishly. He believed that he would no longer see the sunlight tomorrow if he really dared to do so.
The second prince saw fear in Liu Mengdi's eyes which made him laugh in his heart with disdain, but he kept a warm smile as he said. “Thank you for your warning, Young Master Liu Mengdi.”
