In her past life, she tried a few tis, and the taste was quite good.
Regarding Gu Jin’s suggestion, Gu Jiajie didn’t refuse.
Gu Jin opened the red wine without decanting it and directly handed it to Gu Jiajie.
Then, she picked up the three cans of drinks on the table, gave one to Gu Minmin, one to An Mingji, and kept one for herself.
Gu Jiajie was dumbfounded: "So I’m the only one drinking wine?"
Gu Jin shrugged: "We’re all underage, we can’t drink alcohol."
There was nothing Gu Jiajie could do about her shalessness, so he just drank alone.
He still couldn’t accept the combination of red wine and hotpot, feeling a bit resistant to it.
Gu Jin said, "Actually, you could introduce so red wine in the hotpot restaurant to try selling it. After all, your place is one of the top establishnts in Wanhai City, and there might be unexpected gains."
Although Gu Jiajie found it odd, since Gu Jin suggested it, he was willing to trust her.
With a try-it-out ntality, he poured a glass of wine.
"Put in the food, put in the food—"
Gu Jin called everyone to start the hotpot.
Potatoes, mushrooms, winter lon, cabbage, enoki mushrooms, various vegetables were first cooked in a pot to whet the appetite.
Gu Jin liked to eat potatoes and enoki mushrooms, the taste was amazing when dipped in sauce.
She enjoyed the food in her mouth, feeling that hotpot was indeed her favorite.
After eating all sorts of gourt food, she was still fond of hotpot, missing it if she didn’t have it for a while.
Seeing Gu Jin with a satisfied expression, An Mingji sitting next to her softened his gaze.
Opposite them, Gu Jiajie and Gu Minmin also relaxed, their appetite stirred by her enjoynt.
After the vegetables were finished, the at was added.
Gu Jiajie ate a piece of lamb and cautiously took a sip of the red wine.
He couldn’t quite describe the feeling, but there wasn’t the expected sense of resistance.
Instead, he felt the spread of the red wine’s flavor in his mouth, rging with the hotpot sauce and the texture of the at, even more pleasant than drinking white wine.
Sitting opposite, Gu Jin ate the succulent lamb while watching her cousin’s expression.
She smiled and said, "Today we’re having lamb hotpot, pairing it with this red wine brings a gentle yet robust sensation, with the wine and at flavors spreading in the mouth. Isn’t that particularly enjoyable?"
Yes!
Gu Jiajie’s eyes lit up; indeed it was so.
Just enjoying it, this feeling made him smile.
"Contact Brother Hai later; he can help connect you with so wineries to try selling in your shop."
"Okay!"
As Gu Jiajie continued eating hotpot and drinking red wine, he almost finished half the bottle.
Red wine and hotpot truly are the perfect pair.
Gu Jin had eaten enough, and asked Gu Minmin opposite, "Minmin, do you want to transfer to my school?"
Still with her head down eating at, Gu Minmin looked up at the words, her eyes sparkling.
"Can I?"
In her eyes were hope, joy, and admiration for Gu Jin.
Receiving the various emotions in her eyes, Gu Jin’s smile turned gentle, "Of course. If you want, you can process the admission procedures tomorrow and beco my junior."
"Mm!"
Gu Minmin nodded vigorously, her face beaming with a bright smile.
After agreeing, Gu Jin got up and walked outside.
She found her phone on the sofa, checked the ti, just past seven.
She dialed Qiu Qianghai’s contact directly.
The call was quickly answered, with loud music in the background reaching Gu Jin’s ears first.
"Gu Jin, what’s up?"
Qiu Qianghai’s voice followed through the receiver.
