Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Finina looked around and, noticing an empty seat next to Mo Yan, she went to Rednos first and bowed slightly. "Mr. Tianhao, thank you for taking the time to come."

Rednos put down his wine glass, his eyes lingering on her intricate skirt for a moment, a faint smile playing on the corner of his mouth: "Of course, it's my honor to receive Miss Finina's invitation."

He slowly stood up and bowed deeply, which frightened Funina greatly.

"You're such a good pretender." Kailin came over with a prepared cocktail, her tone full of undisguised sarcasm, and sat back in her seat.

Finina was stunned: "Huh? So... there's someone here already?"

At this time, Rednos, who was sitting on Mo Yan's left, smiled slightly and stood up.

"It's okay, just sit here with me. I see Zhao Heng can drink quite well, so why not have a drink with him?"

He pulled out his chair gracefully and then walked to table number 4. At this moment, Zhao Heng and Zi Xuan were having a lively conversation with Rex.

"Hey! Would you guys like to share a table? We can have a few drinks together." He said with a smile while standing by the table.

Seeing and hearing this, Funina suddenly felt embarrassed.

She carefully sat down in the empty seat to Mo Yan's right and said with a smile, "Sorry to bother you."

"It's okay, it's no problem." Mo Yan shook his head.

"Right. It's much better than that guy being here." Kailin smiled, then looked at Rex sitting at Zhao Heng's desk again. "But I didn't expect that he was actually the student of the scholar Tianlang mentioned. No wonder he has such great abilities, able to control those machines in one go."

Klee rested her hand on her chin and smiled. "Yes, because of what happened back then, he's considered a hero of the Abyss. If he hadn't used the power of the Dimensional Shadow Stone to maintain the barrier, the Abyss would have collapsed long ago."

After he finished speaking, Mo Yan subconsciously looked at Funina.

At this time, she took the red wine that came from nowhere and filled the goblet.

Mo Yan was stunned: "You look young, but you can actually drink?"

Funina looks like a girl around 16 years old, which is not the age for drinking.

Hearing this, she smiled gently: "Don't worry, this is just a high-end imitation sparkling drink made based on the appearance of red wine. It does not contain alcohol. If you don't believe me, you can try it."

Finina blinked and handed the goblet to Mo Yan's lips.

High-end imitation beverages? Real or fake?

He took a sip with doubt, and instantly, a mellow tannin taste exploded on the tip of his tongue, with a slight sense of alcohol.

"How is it? It tastes good, right?" Funina blinked and looked at Mo Yan expectantly, as if waiting for a positive answer.

"What kind of imitation drink? This is clearly red wine." Mo Yan held his head helplessly and wanted to get angry, but because of the other person's innocent face, he could only lower his voice and ask.

"No way? Let me see."

The smile on Funina's face froze for a moment, and she subconsciously took the goblet from Mo Yan's hand and drank it all. During this time, Karin, who was sitting on the left, suddenly became alert.

"Huh? How could this happen? Did I take the wrong one?" Funina put down the empty wine glass, a trace of panic flashing in her eyes.

She looked at the red wine bottle in her other hand, and sure enough, it had the unique trademark of Linhui Winery painted on it.

At this moment, Keli chuckled: "Come to think of it, the label of the high-end imitation beverage does seem to be very similar to Linhui's red wine. It's normal to get it wrong."

Hearing this, Funina blushed instantly: "Sorry, I'll go get another bottle now!"

She sounded embarrassed, turned around and ran back upstairs with the unfinished red wine.

At this time, Keli chuckled again. She held up an empty bottle and said, "Oh, we're out of wine. Excuse me."

She stood up and walked towards the bar.

"Tabac, get me another bottle of whiskey."

"Okay, Teacher Keli!"

There was laughter and joy in the room, and everyone was drinking and chatting. Looking at Rednos, he had already shared more than ten bottles of red wine with Zhao Heng, but he was still not satisfied.

"Boy, you can drink quite a lot. Come on, let's continue!" Rednos laughed loudly, his eyes flashing with alcohol but still with some composure.

He picked up the bottle of red wine on the table, uncorked it, and poured it into two empty glasses. The foam spread gently along the walls of the glasses.

"Come on, who's afraid of who?" Zhao Heng was a little drunk, but still refused to admit defeat.

Looking at the wine table, Klee was holding a goblet, drinking elegantly and generously. Especially Mona, she was sitting at table 3, claiming to be a fan of Funina, and she had climbed up several high-ranking security guards by herself.

"Are all the people here (in the abyss) drunkards?" Karen complained as she looked around, drinking the cocktail in her hand.

"How dare you criticize others when you're like this?" Mo Yan sarcastically said.

"What do you care!" Kailin said angrily, and took Mo Yan's juice and took a big gulp.

"Hey, that's mine!" Mo Yan said helplessly, folding his arms. "Really, little girl, why are you throwing a tantrum again?"

Meanwhile, upstairs in the wine room, Korla was checking the inventory.

At this moment, Funina suddenly rushed in and said anxiously: "Korla!"

"Captain? Is there something wrong?" Korla stopped what he was doing and walked forward to ask.

Funina took out the bottle of wine in her hand and said, "I accidentally took this bottle of wine as a drink. Can I exchange it for another one?"

After hearing this, Korla smiled and said, "Is that so? Of course no problem. Wait for me."

He turned around and rummaged through the bulk wine boxes before finding a bottle of clear drink with a grape logo painted on it.

"Here, white grape juice. I guess I can't make a mistake now, right?"

"Let me see, this is correct now. Sorry to bother you."

Funina took the grape juice and only felt relieved after confirming the trademark again and again.

Korla shook his head and smiled, "It's okay, just have fun with your guests."

Furninna nodded, holding the white grape juice and walked quickly out of the wine storage room. Her skirt lifted slightly with her steps, like a light bird.

At this time, downstairs, Kelly ordered another glass of whiskey at the counter. She took a sip and suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Tabaq, why does this whiskey taste like grape juice?" she asked, looking at the liquid in the glass.

"Grape juice? No way, how about I change the bottle for you?" Tabak came over quickly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Funina coming down the stairs holding a bottle of white grape juice, her steps so light that it seemed like she was walking on clouds.

"Sorry for the wait!" She quickly returned to her seat beside Mo Yan and placed the grape juice in her hand on the table. "It's okay this time. Look at the grape juice!"

She opened the bottle cap, then took two new glasses, poured the drink into them and placed one of them in front of Mo Yan.

Mo Yan looked at the liquid in the cup and smelled it. A pungent smell rushed into his nose. He frowned suddenly and looked up at Funina, but saw that she had already drunk almost half of the cup.

Am I overthinking this, or is it just the smell of alcohol in the bar that's too strong?

He drank slowly with doubt in his heart, and at this moment, Funina suddenly put down the cup.

"Strange, why does this grape juice look weird?"
