163. Different lives

''Order whatever you want. My treat.'' Li Zhilan said as she picked up the tab and started picking what she wanted and at the same time asking those beside her, Qi Longwei is includedofcourse sncw it was his idea to share tablets. Everytime, there would be tablets according to the number of heads counted but today, Great Qi wanted to create opportunities where he would be able to converse with Li Zhilan. So he specifically but discretely ordered to be sent half the number of tablets required.

Before they even finished ordering, the manager brought in bottles of red wine.

''Damn, this is Heavens Gift.''

''Shoot. So many bottles of it.''

''Come on. Don't over do it guys. It's just red wine.'' A girl said it but was immediately stared upon my many. ''What? am I wrong? Isn't it just red wine?''

''Just? Just?! This isnt 'just' any red wine. This is Heaven's Gift. It's fond only in Country X and is very difficult to buy. They only sell hundred such bottles every year and it's really difficult to get your hands on. Even if you have the money, you may not be able to buy a bottle of it.''

''It can't be this exaggerated, right? How can money not be able to buy it.'' The girl felt embarrassed so she wanted to defend herself but was only rebuked.

''If money could buy it, why would it be so rare that even you never heard it. Being the daughter of one of the influential people, you should have heard it but you didn't. It's not just the money that you need to buy things. The seller should also be ready to sell it. And no one wants to part with this once it gets into their hands, get it?''

''Then why does this restaurant have so many?''

''Did you forget who this restaurant belongs to?''

''Great Qi, why are you willing to share such an expensive drink with us?''

''It's Firefly's treat. Ofcourse I would bring this one out.'' Qi Longwei calmly replied as if this was the most natural thing to do.

''So this is the best you have?''

''Only this one is in more quantity. The best ones are only in ones or twos.''

This was the one of the few times Qi Longwei said so many words to them even answerng their questions but why did it feel like he was kind of guilty do he was explaining himself. He words clearly meant that if those best ones were also in such large quantities, he would have brought then it out because only then would it be enough for everyone.

This pampering tone. Oh God...

''Goddess Orchid, I heard you received the award for being the best rookie actress. Congratulations.'' A boy stood as he proposed a toast and everyone else joined in raising their glass. With this, he successfully caught the attention of everyone else and set a more harmonious air.

''Congratulations.''

''Thank you thank you.'' Li Zhilan said as she drank together.

''Goddess Orchid. Why did you join the entertainment circle. Clearly, you are qualified for anything else.''

''Well. It wasn't my idea actually. Something came up at home and was figuring out what I should do. It was then that my friend, my manager, coerced me into it. After one movie, I felt like it wasn't so bad afterall so I stayed. On top of that, I found something interesting while acting.''

''What's that. Tell us too.''

''Exactly. Tell us.''

''Quickly.''

''I found that before I couldn't decide which circle to join, which job to do. But once I started acting, I found out that I dont have to choose. I can do any job I like and it isn't that stressful either. I can be a doctor one day and the next, could be a struggling student. I could be the scientis of the future to the general of the past. Of course there is princess too. So it's quite fun experiencing lives I never would have. Now I think, I'll act until I grow tired of it, which might not happen anytime soon.''

''Talk about being extraordinary. She doesn't know what to choose and I don't have anything to choose. What a huge difference in meaning in a slight change in words. Sigh... what a unfair world.''

''I feel you bro... I feel you.''

''Me too.''

''Count me in as well.''

''Let's be honest. The only person who can't feel us is Great Qi. Everyone else, we are in the same shoe.''

''Don't make us remember out pathetic self infront of the Great God and Goddess.''
