Ji Zhangyin isn't used to being too close to strangers.
When Gu Bai sat down beside him, the expression of the guard who was serving next to him changed. The guard wanted to get up and drive him away, but he was immediately stopped by Ji Zhangyin's cold gaze.
"Lanling is known as the country of wine, the world's finest wines are all from that country. Fusang wine is the most distinct among them, only three can compare to it. Jinzun, Muxiang and Hupo, have you tried them?"
Ji Zhangyin stared at the exquisite youth in front of him with interest. He really couldn't understand why he would suddenly let the youth drink together with him, even sharing a cup together. Not only did he not feel repulsed and disgusted, he was at ease instead.
Now he even allow the youth to get close to his body. It's very strange. If it was someone else, they would've been dragged out and beheaded early on.
Seeing his expression, Gu Bai let out a sigh of relief in his heart. He was betting, betting on his instincts that this person is that man. If it's really him, he won't hurt him.
Just like the previous world, he did a lot of self a.n.a.lysis. The reason why Qin s.h.i.+tian can easily let him approach and create good feelings between them is because of their acquaintance in the first world.
So he believes that even without any memory, that man’s soul will remember him. He just somehow believe it. But whether this person is really him, he still needs to make sure...
"I haven't tried any of the wines that you mentioned, but I've tried a wine that taste better than this, and I also know how to brew, do you want to try it?..."
While shaking his head, Gu Bai stretched his arm out and held his hand, his body stuck close to him as he raised his head. The eyes on the delicate face were very bright, causing people to become dazzled and stunned.
The youth's body is soft and unripe*. Turbulent tides gathered in Ji Zhangyin's deep and serene eyes. He took a deep breath and couldn't help but reach out to pinch the other person's chin. The tone was unspeakably gentle.
*young and inexperienced
"Oh? You can also brew wine? I want to taste it..."
"You can, but you have to tell me your name first! Let's get to know each other!"
The moment his chin was pinched, the familiar feeling grew deeper. Gu Bai felt a little excited.
"If we don't get to know each other, I can't drink it?"
Ji Zhangyin bowed his head and got closer, his breath landed on the youth's delicate face. His husky voice was unspeakably majestic.
His ident.i.ty caused his mind to constantly make dark guesses about this youth for approaching him, but it all disappeared in the end when faced with that pair of incomparably pure eyes.
His breath hit Gu Bai's cheek, causing his fair cheek to redden, but the growing feeling of familiarity made him very excited. This person might really be him.
"Yeah, if you want to drink my brewed wine, you have to tell me your name. My wine is the world's one and only. You have to follow my requirements if you want to drink it..." He looked at the man in front of him with bright eyes.
Ji Zhangyin heart slightly jumped when he saw Gu Bai's bright eyes. The hand pinching Gu Bai's chin couldn't help but gently rub. His cold eyes became soft and he spoke playfully.
"A kid like you sure talk big. Then tell me, what's your name?"
"I'm not a kid, I'm already sixteen, my name is..." Gu Bai paused at this point before he continued.
"My name is Gu Bai, the Bai in white*, quickly tell me your name..."
*He's spelling his name, like A for America, K for korea, etc
If this man is really him, he wants him to call his real name.
"My name is Ji Zhangyin, what about your wine?" Ji Zhangyin pinched Gu Bai's face and smiled.
He doesn't know why he has so much patience to accompany this youth today, and he further can't understand why he's unable to raise even a little bit of defense against him, he actually told him his real name.
Gu Bai memorized the name that he acquired, and then continued to question him. He was given an inch and want a mile. "The wine isn't done brewing. Tell me where your family lives? I will send it to you after I'm done brewing it..."
