Chapter 78
The two of them were so drunk that they had to wait for the next meal.
"Columbia... shall we go drink?"
"Drinking, I'm not very good at it." Columbia shook her head.
"It doesn't matter, drink more and you'll get it." Jingliu forced Columbia to walk into the Angel's Gift.
Jingliu didn't care whether Columbia could drink or not, it would be better if she didn't. After all... I really want to see what Columbia looks like when she's drunk.
...
"Hello, the Angel's Gift is closed, please come back tomorrow."
Just as Jingliu was about to push the door in, a waiter blocked him.
"Closed?" Jingliu looked at the brightly lit tavern inside and asked in confusion.
"Yes."
"Well... okay then." Jingliu didn't make it difficult for him and prepared to leave with Columbia.
Just as Jingliu was about to leave, the door suddenly opened and a familiar fiery red figure appeared in front of him.
"Master Diluk." The waiter said hurriedly.
"Come in, from now on, whether the tavern is closed or not, they can come in if they want, do you understand?" Diluk nodded to Jingliu and Columbia, then looked at the waiter and said.
...
"Hmm? Which country are you going to invade?"
Walking into the tavern, Jingliu asked with some confusion as he saw almost all the senior members of Mondstadt in the tavern.
"Invasion? What invasion? We are discussing the Wind Flower Festival." Wendy scratched the back of his head and said to Jingliu.
Wendy really admired Jingliu's ideas, not to mention who Mondstadt could beat now. If he really had the idea of invading, I'm afraid Mondstadt would belong to Liyue tomorrow.
"Jingliu, Columbia, do you want to join us?" Paimon waved at the two of them.
"Forget it." Jingliu shook his head.
"I'm just here to drink. Please, Mr. Diluc, bring out some good wine."
"Don't worry, I'm not some rude bard. I'll pay Mora for how much I drink."
Jingliu said to Diluc, and then found a secluded corner to sit down.
"Why are you looking at me? This is definitely not about me, right?" Wendy looked at several people looking at her, spread her hands and said innocently.
"..."
"Hey, do you really have to be named before you admit it?" Paimon looked at Wendy's look of refusing to admit it.
"Hey?"
"Hey, what do you mean?"
...
"These are dandelion wines that are limited to the Mondstadt Wind Flower Festival. You can try them."
Diluc took out a few bottles of wine that looked very expensive from the cabinet and put them on the table.
"Hey hey hey!!! I want to drink too, I want to drink too." When Wendy saw the limited edition Dandelion Wine, his eyes lit up. He almost rushed over to grab the wine.
"This wine... is very expensive. If you give it to Mora, it's fine. If you want to get it for free, no deal." Diluk didn't give Wendy any face at all.
"Advance it, advance it." Wendy poked her hand and looked at Diluk with hope.
"No deal." Diluk's only response to Wendy was two cold words.
"Ah, then." Wendy seemed a little frustrated.
"I'll pay for this." Qin saw Wendy's expression and finally couldn't help but stand up and said.
Jingliu felt the chattering crowd around him and couldn't stand it. He didn't let people drink quietly.
Then he threw the dandelion wine at Wendy: "Don't pretend, the wine is for you."
After Wendy received the wine, she couldn't wait to open it and take a sip:
"Ah! Refreshing! It's worthy of being a dandelion wine limited to the Wind Flower Festival. Thank you, Sister Jingliu."
Wendy was greeted by only Jingliu's cold look.
"Haha, haha." Wendy touched her nose awkwardly.
"Don't you want to drink it?" Jingliu looked at Columbia and asked.
"Well... pour me a glass to try." Columbia looked at Wendy's love for dandelion wine and couldn't help wanting to try it.
"Dandelion wine is a relatively mild wine. Columbia has never drunk wine. This is just right for the first time." Jingliu said while pouring wine for Columbia.
"Hmm..." Columbia looked at the wine in front of her, put it in front of her nose and smelled it.
There was a faint dandelion scent, and there was no pungent smell of alcohol.
Columbia put it to his mouth and took a sip: "Hmm... Dandelion flavor. Delicious."
"After all, it is one of Mond's top wines." Jingliu took a sip
Dandelion wine said.
Well... it is indeed different from the previous dandelion wine. Compared with normal dandelion wine, the limited dandelion flavor is more intense. After drinking a bottle, the dandelion smell still permeates the mouth. It is mellow and refreshing, which makes people have endless aftertaste.
"Well... Hey, Columbia!" Jingliu looked at Columbia's appearance and stopped her.
Columbia was holding the bottle mouth to her mouth and drinking.
"Pah!"
With the sound of the bottle hitting the table, Columbia drank a whole bottle of dandelion wine.
"Another... another... one... one bottle." Columbia's face flushed, her body swayed, and her tone was hesitant.
No way? Drunk already? Didn't Columbia just drink a small sip just now?
Without time to think about it, Jingliu quickly stopped Columbia who was about to drink another bottle.
"Jingliu, what are you doing... I still want to drink." Columbia said in a coquettish tone.
"Columbia, you are drunk." Jingliu looked at Columbia and felt a headache. He didn't expect that he would fall down after one glass, and he hadn't drunk much yet.
"Drunk? Drunk... what? I... I... am very sober." Columbia staggered out her hand, trying to get the wine in her hand.
"Oh, go back."
"No... I want to... drink... eh?" Columbia was picked up by Jingliu before she finished speaking.
"Don't... don't do this... hold me, I I I... I will go by myself." Columbia's face became redder and redder, as if she was going to explode in the next second.
"The more you struggle, the more excited I am." Jingliu leaned close to Columbia's ear and said.
Hearing this, Columbia stopped struggling at once.
"Hey hey hey, are you guys leaving? Is there any wine left on the table?" Wendy saw Jingliu was about to leave, and hurriedly asked.
"All for you."
"Great!" Wendy was so happy that she almost jumped up.
"These two people are indeed a little weird." Paimon thought as he watched the two people leave.
...
In the hotel room, Jingliu gently put Columbia on the bed.
"I have to say, Columbia is quite cute when she is drunk." Jingliu looked at Columbia's face and couldn't help but stretched out his hand to poke her.
"Hmm..."
The next second, as Columbia turned over, her lips happened to touch Jingliu's fingers, and she even stretched out her tongue to lick them.
"!" Jingliu quickly retracted his fingers.
Looking at the saliva left on his fingers, Jingliu had the idea of going up to smell it.
"Huff..." Jingliu quickly threw the idea out of his mind.
Then he looked at Columbia's face and her cherry lips that looked brighter after drinking, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
Looking at Columbia, who seemed to have no power to resist, Jingliu slowly moved his face closer...
Finally, he kissed Columbia on the forehead...
"Good night, Columbia."
