The Immortal's Wine Store

Everyone stared at Theia with their shaking eyes. She was wearing a cold expression as she eyed Liu Mengdi's uncles and their group. She has not done anything, but everyone felt uneasy when they saw the look in her eyes.

Liu Mengdi smiled as he gazed at Theia's beautiful face. He knew that he was safe inside the store because of this woman's presence. Not even the emperor would dare behave wantonly with Theia observing the whole store...

The patriarch stared at Theia with a feigned calmness. He hid the fear in his heart as he clenched his shivering fists tightly and uttered in a cold voice.

"Young Miss Theia, we don't mean to cause trouble here. I would just like to capture this bastard to appease the souls of my fallen subordinates. I hope that you won't involve yourself in this."

Theia remained silent and walked calmly towards the patriarch and his group. Each step she took made everyone's hearts pound.

The patriarch unconsciously took a step back, but he immediately scolded himself inwardly for feeling scared. He forced himself to look calm as Theia was approaching them, but he could barely hide his shaking legs from everyone's field of vision.

Theia stopped in front of the patriarch and looked deeply into his eyes. She was a head shorter than him, but the patriarch felt that he was extremely small in her presence. What kind of feeling was this? He was confused.

"I said that no one is allowed to cause trouble here. Now, if you are not here to buy wine, leave before my hand reaches my sword." Theia said, her face was expressionless.

The patriarch gulped down nervously and forced out an ugly smile. He was now feeling troubled about what to with the current circumstances. It would be a lie if he said that he wasn't scared, but he truly wanted to capture Liu Mengdi. With him alive and living, the patriarch would never feel at ease.

The patriarch stared at Liu Mengdi who was sitting on his chair. The latter was wearing a brilliant smile on his face and he even raised his cup of wine when their eyes met.

The patriarch gritted his teeth and calmed his nervousness. He then said.

"Young Miss Theia, I would like to order something."

Theia stared at him for a moment before she turned around without looking back. Only her beautiful voice was left behind. "Sylvia, take their orders."

"Yes, Young Miss Theia." A cheerful voice immediately answered her.

The patriarch and his group heaved a sigh of relief as they watched Theia walked away. They had never felt so scared in their lives...

The patriarch led his subordinates to where Liu Mengdi was seated. He eyed the customers who were sitting beside Liu Mengdi and said with a smile.

"Brothers, could you do me a favor? I want to speak with this person, so I hope that you can give us this table."

The customers sitting beside Liu Mengdi felt uncomfortable, but they could only choose to leave. If they stubbornly refuse the man, they would surely be hunted by the Liu Family if they leave the store, so they could only smile bitterly as they stood up from their seats.

Liu Mengdi watched the scene with an unchanging smile. He was confident that nothing would happen to him as long as he was inside the store.

"Guests, what would you like to order?" Princess Sylvia said while looking at the patriarch. She did not like this person, but she still gave him a smile as countless evil thoughts filled her head.

The patriarch smiled back at the princess. Truthfully, he felt wonderful having the emperor's daughter serving him wine, but he did not show it to his face.

"Your Highness, give us twelve bottles of Ables Blanc, please." He said.

Princess Sylvia nodded her head lightly and replied in a warm tone. "Sure. Just give me a minute to get your wines."

The patriarch nodded his head smilingly.

Princess Sylvia then went to the wine storage to get their wines. She was already devising a mischievous plan as she walked away with a crafty smile.

Her brother, Prince Dante who was watching his sister felt a sense of unease when he saw the naughty smile hanging on his sister's face. He knew that his sister was up to something no good, so he immediately followed her inside the wine storage.

"Hey, what are you planning to do right now?" Prince Dante asked in a worried tone as he held his sister's arm.

Princess Sylvia feigned ignorance as she put on a surprised look. "Brother, what are you saying?

Prince Dante glared at her and said fiercely.

"Sister, I know that you want to help Young Master Liu, but remember what kind of punishment you'll have to bear once Young Miss Theia finds out about your plan."

Princess Sylvia felt slightly scared at the mention of her name, but she was determined to help Liu Mengdi. She pulled her arm from her brother's grasp and said.

"Brother, don't you want to help him? He is our friend and even if I am punished, I would do anything to help him out!"

Prince Dante sighed when he heard that.

"Okay, what's your plan?" He asked with a defeated look.

Princess Sylvia smiled from ear to ear and whispered something to her brother.

"Liu Mengdi, you have no one to rely on at this moment. Just give up your struggle and come with us. I promise that we won't kill you, but we have to imprison you for your deeds." The patriarch said while looking at Liu Mengdi.

Liu Mengdi ignored him and simply drank his wine, but the rage in his heart was boiling furiously as time passed by. He could not wait to kill the people in front of him, but he knew that he was still too weak to fight against them. Not to mention what would happen if he caused trouble inside the store.

The patriarch hid his anger and continued.

"Liu Mengdi, since this is what you want, then don't blame us later."

Liu Mengdi merely chuckled when he heard his words. His taunting look almost made the patriarch erupt into a fury, but he did not dare do anything, so he could only glare at Liu Mengdi coldly.
