Chapter 66: Umberto's life experience

Gao Fei sat on the sofa waiting for Jiang Feng and Ma Yun.

If you have nothing to do, just open the astrolabe and enter the customized module "Duel Agent".

The time in the game has reached February 1628.

Avalon in early spring is humid, rainy, and cold, making it more difficult to endure than winter.

On the weekend afternoon, when the weather rarely cleared up, Musk and Lisa took a carriage to Pattus Street to attend the weekend party at the Paradise Tavern.

The moment he got off the car, Gao Fei received a system prompt and switched directly to the "divine" mode.

This surprised him a little.

According to the previous plot routine, the protagonist of the game, Brother Musk, always prays to the guardian angel and seeks guidance when he encounters troubles that are difficult to make, and then he can take over control of the protagonist.

Something was a little unusual today. I didn't encounter any trouble yet, and I was able to fall in love with Musk right away. It seems that the plot of this chapter should be of a more casual type.

Just like the anime season series, every seventh or eighth episode, the main plot line will be paused and a beach vacation episode will be inserted so that the female characters can put on cool swimsuits and show off their eye-catching beauty.

Good shape.

This method of screenwriting has now become synonymous with cliché and watering down.

But I have to admit that many viewers just fall for this.

Moreover, in the midst of intense conflicts, it is indeed necessary to occasionally slow down the pace and use humor or pornographic jokes to make the plot development appear relaxed and moderate.

Of course, this is just Gao Fei's conjecture, and the game script may not necessarily develop according to his ideas.

Putting back his wandering thoughts, Gao Fei took Miss Lisa, who had transformed into a beautiful boy, into the noisy tavern.

The bar was empty. Umberto and Mario, who usually sat here drinking, were not in the bar today.

Claire was sitting alone at the bar, primly wiping the wine glass with a white towel, looking like a boss lady.

"Hi! Musk, Lisa, good afternoon!" The red-haired girl smiled warmly.

"Good afternoon, Sister Claire. Isn't Brother Umberto at home?"

"He went to the banquet," Claire replied.

"Going to a banquet..." This too formal word surprised Gao Fei.

"Haha! Brother Musk, do you think it's a bit nondescript for a gang boss to put on a tuxedo and a bow tie and go to a high-end restaurant for a banquet?"

Claire asked with a smile.

Gao Fei nodded frankly.

Imagine that Brother Umberto is dressed in a suit and leather shoes. He must be very handsome, but after all, there is something inconsistent with his style.

"Captain Dantès transported a ship of wine from Patos, the capital of the sea, to Avalon. As soon as he landed on the dock, he came to Umberto and asked him to have dinner at the Savoy Hotel."

"Umberto had to give him the respect of an old friend, so he had no choice but to go out and socialize."

"Wow! The Savoy Hotel, that is the first choice place for gatherings of celebrities in the city!" Lisa exclaimed, "Sister Claire, if I were you, I must dress up beautifully and ask Brother Umberto to take care of me.

Let me go to the Savoy Hotel together and see the world."

"Oh, Umberto did invite me to be his female companion, and even bought me jewelry and high-end dresses just for this occasion. Unfortunately, I don't like that kind of pretentious occasion, so I'm too lazy to go social with him!

"

Claire's tone was very arrogant, but she couldn't hide the smug look in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, revealing the true side of her heart.

"By the way, Captain Dantès specially ran a boat for Umberto's father. Entrusted by the millionaire, he specially brought some small gifts to our young master Umberto to show his father's love."

Claire said mockingly, turned around and took out a bottle of red wine from the cupboard, opened the cork, poured it into a decanter and let it sit for a while before pouring wine for Goofy and Lisa.

"Try it, and I'll buy you a drink for Umberto."

Gao Fei thanked him with a smile, raised his glass and clinked it with Claire.

Lisa also picked up the wine glass, but did not drink it immediately, her eyes became extremely strange.

"Sister Claire...if I'm not mistaken, what you just opened is a bottle of red wine brewed in 1608 by Chateau Romanee?"

"Haha! You are knowledgeable and have much better vision than Musk, a poor boy from the bottom of society."

Claire put down her glass and gave Lisa a thumbs up.

Lisa patted her forehead and said with a wry smile: "Sister Claire, if you open such expensive wine casually and give it to us to drink, will Brother Umberto be angry when he comes back?"

"It's okay, he doesn't care." Claire said calmly, "In fact, Umberto really wants us to drink up all these expensive and scary famous wines, so as not to get angry!"

Gao Fei heard something in her words and asked Lisa while holding a half glass of red wine: "Is the wine I just drank expensive?"

Lisa nodded solemnly.

"The Romanee red wine from 1608 is recognized as the best, and each bottle is auctioned for up to 150 gold pounds!"

"Ah?!" Gao Fei's hand shook and he almost knocked over the wine glass.

Is this the 1982 Lafite in the fantasy world?

...We don’t taste the taste of money either.

"I told you not to worry about the price, just drink as much as you want. There is plenty of this kind of wine."

Claire turned around and opened the glass cabinet. There were a dozen of the same famous wines in the wine cabinet, and this was not even the most expensive wine in Umberto’s collection!

"Wow! Brother Umberto's wine cabinet is like a bank vault. If you put it out so casually, aren't you afraid of being stolen?"

Lisa's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Haha! If you steal cheap drinks from the store, Umberto will indeed be angry. After all, those drinks are for sale. As for the famous wines in the cabinet, they are not for sale. You can drink them if you want, so there is no need to be sneaky."

Claire said.

Gao Fei and Lisa looked at each other, becoming more and more confused.

Claire filled them with red wine and raised her glass to take a sip, her red lips complementing the wine.

"Brother Musk, Miss Lisa, you wouldn't have thought that Umberto is actually the son of a millionaire."

"But, Brother Umberto once said that he was an orphan." Gao Fei couldn't help but question.

"He said this because he resented his biological father and didn't want to admit that he had such a cold and heartless father."

Claire replied in a low voice.

"Brother Umberto's father traveled thousands of miles to send him so much expensive red wine. This doesn't seem like something a 'cold and ruthless father' would do!" Lisa murmured in a low voice.

"It's a long story." Claire sighed, "Eighteen years ago, when Umberto was still living in Patos, he was only seven years old. His mother was the daughter of a pastor and his father worked in a shipping company.

Working and engaging in the tea trade, the family of three was originally happy, but unfortunately things soon changed."
