"Stop talking! Come on! Let's drink!" With the jar of liquor in his arms, Lin Shao urged his buddies to drink.

After watching the ending of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy, Song Qingfeng didn't feel too bad, but he wasn't in a good mood either. He began to drink with others.

"Hey! Fatty! How come you're not drinking?" Xu Luo patted Wang Tai on his shoulder.

Ever since they began playing Diablo together, they had become friends and had come for a drink together.

"Of course, let's drink!" Wang Tai froze for a second. He hadn't played the Legend of the Sword and Fairy and had only watched others play it, but he felt the same way as the others.

"It's a pity that this liquor isn't nearly as good as Sprite," Song Qingfeng clicked his tongue while he drank.

"You won't get drunk with Sprite!" With that said, Lin Shao chugged another mouthful of liquor, and his face turned red.

Beside them, many other customers in the Wind and Moon Pavilion had big jars of liquor on the tables in front of them. Even Shen Qingqing who rarely drank had ordered a bottle of Green Jade Liquor and took a seat beside a window.

Xu Zixin sat across from her, and her face didn't change color after drinking one bottle of liquor.

"I prefer Sprite!" Shen Qingqing mumbled. Her face turned pink after dinking only a small bottle of liquor

While resting her chin in her hand, Xu Zixin looked tipsy as she said, "I wish that the snacks here are as good as Haagen-Dazs and the liquor as good as the Sprite."

The waiter who served them looked sulky.

He had got tired of hearing Sprite and Haagen-Dazs these days and wondered what they were. It was still ok if someone wanted to compare other things with the liquor and snacks in the Wind and Moon Pavilion, but they criticized the great offers of the Wind and Moon Pavilion while they were eating!

It must be noted that the chef of the Wind and Moon Pavilion came from Jingshi, and he was as good as the chefs in the Royal Palace!

-Meanwhile in an exquisite compartment on the fourth floor of the Wind and Moon Pavilion-

Behind the pretty curtain, one could see the vague shape of a woman and her distinct and beautiful features. With her beautiful eyes set deep under her dark eyebrows, she opened her lips and said with pride and elegance, "Qingher, Wanyu."

Standing before her were a man and a woman who were meticulously dressed. The man was in his thirties and looked righteous. After hearing his name, he led the woman beside him to bow slightly.

The woman behind the curtain looked casual with a pot of tea in her hand. "I just came back from Jingshi and can use some rest. What happened these days? Tell me."

The man and the woman immediately reported what had happened in the Wind and Moon Pavilion recently.

"The customers keep commenting that our liquor doesn't taste as good as the Sprite of a small shop?" The woman behind the curtain found it ridiculous. "Our snacks aren't nearly as good as Haagen-Dazs?"

She said in contempt, "It's just a small shop. The customers can eat whatever they like; what impact can it have on us?"

...

Standing outside of Tianji Hall, Su Tianji felt melancholic. It was the night, and the stars blinked brightly in the dark sky. Looking at the shadows beyond the mountains and the stars in the sky, she felt a loneliness that she had never felt before.
