Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Bro Got a Golden Finger Now
Although the two families weren’t far apart, it took little time for the two men to enter Liu Kai’s yard, one after the other.
Liu Zheng had one foot inside the door and one outside when Liu Kai came out to greet him with a smile plastered on his face.
"Ah... really, at first I hesitated, unsure if you would grant me the honor of coming to my house for a meal, which is why I had my sister-in-law invite you. It looks like you really did me the favor, come on in, hurry into the house and take a seat."
Upon entering the yard, Liu Zheng didn’t go straight into the house but stood still in the courtyard instead.
With a cold expression on his face, he stared at Liu Kai and asked, "If you’ve got something to say, just say it. There’s no need for this pretentious charade."
"Tsk tsk! Look at you, still holding a grudge against your own brother!"
Even though Liu Kai was a bit embarrassed, his skin was indeed thick enough, so at that moment, he grabbed Liu Zheng’s arm with a flattering smile and said, "Liu Zheng, let me tell you, the main reason I invited you over for dinner is to apologize to you."
Gazing coldly at Liu Kai in front of him, Liu Zheng scoffed, his expression still frosty, "You, Liu Kai, are the son of the village chief. Can you actually apologize to me?"
Listening to his questions, Liu Kai now seemed very serious and sincere.
He nodded immediately and said, "Really, today’s invitation was specially to apologize to you."
At that point, Liu Kai let go of Liu Zheng’s arm and took a step back.
Then, he bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle, offering his respects to Liu Zheng.
His voice rang out loudly, "Liu Zheng, I was wrong in the past, I’ve offended you. Please forgive me. I sincerely bow and apologize to you, I’m sorry!"
Honestly, Liu Zheng was really caught off guard by Liu Kai’s actions.
He had initially thought that Liu Kai was just putting on a show, merely going through the motions with him.
But now.
Looking at the kid’s demeanor, he seemed quite sincere.
And at that time, Zhao Cuihua also started to back him up.
"That’s right! Liu Zheng, you shouldn’t stoop to my husband Liu Kai’s level. He’s just a stubborn man, but now he’s sincerely apologizing to you. Forgive him. Let’s talk over dinner."
Clearly, she must have been instructed by Liu Kai beforehand, so her words naturally encouraged Liu Zheng to believe that Liu Kai was truly apologizing.
"Exactly, exactly. Cui Hua is right. Let’s go inside and talk it over dinner."
Liu Kai immediately came over to pull Liu Zheng toward the main hall as he spoke.
Liu Zheng wasn’t afraid of any tricks, so he followed him into the main hall.
As soon as he entered the hall, Liu Zheng saw eight full dishes laid out on the eight-immortal table.
Without further ado, Liu Kai pulled Liu Zheng to the table, asked him to sit in the seat of honor, then picked up the bottle and started pouring him a drink.
Liu Zheng was naturally very puzzled. It really looked as if Liu Kai had turned over a new leaf.
Though he was puzzled, Liu Zheng didn’t dwell on it.
After all, Liu Kai’s wife had already revealed his plans to him, and as long as he didn’t fall for the trap, all would be well.
"Come on, Liu Zheng, I’ll toast you once again and apologize," Liu Kai said, as he poured himself a drink with a truly sincere look.
Liu Zheng looked down at the drink in his cup.
The wine was a brown color, which looked a bit harsh on the eyes.
Liu Zheng couldn’t help but frown and couldn’t resist asking, "What kind of wine is this?"
"This is yellow wine, it’s really good stuff! Normally, I can’t bear to drink it at all."
After speaking, Liu Kai lifted his cup and drank it all in one gulp, saying, "I’ll drink first as a gesture of respect."
Seeing him drink, and since the wine was poured from the bottle, Liu Zheng gave a nod and then tipped his head back to drink as well.
After drinking, he didn’t feel anything inappropriate.
Then, Liu Kai eagerly prompted Liu Zheng to eat the dishes.
While eating, Liu Kai glanced towards the direction of the kitchen and called out, "Cui Hua, are you still busy? When you’re finished, hurry over and toast Liu Zheng!"
Before long, Zhao Cuihua came out from the kitchen.
Only this time, her attire was different from before.
Having gone to the kitchen, she had actually changed her clothes.
Now, Zhao Cuihua was dressed in a white, strappy top that not only failed to cover her belly button, but also left her entire snowy back exposed to the air.
The fabric seemed so sheer that one might wonder if the clothing was transparent.
The problem was, the clothes clung to her body, and without even looking closely, one could tell she probably wasn’t wearing anything underneath.
But that wasn’t all, the shorts Zhao Cuihua was wearing on her lower body were even shorter, as short as they could be, and appeared to be tight-fitting.
It could even be said that what she was wearing was akin to body-hugging beachwear.
Zhao Cuihua walked over, but as she did so, she twisted her body, swaying and moving her waist and hips in an extremely flirtatious manner.
Especially her pair of long, white legs, they were directly waving before Liu Zheng’s eyes.
As she approached, two long, white legs were displayed in full view right before Liu Zheng.
Adding to that were Zhao Cuihua’s tight curves from behind and the S-curve of her waist, all of which made Liu Zheng swallow hard.
He was almost mesmerized, wasn’t he?
At that moment, Zhao Cuihua took a seat right beside Liu Zheng.
She smiled seductively, then picked up a wine glass and poured Liu Zheng another drink.
After pouring the wine, Liu Zheng was immediately encouraged by Liu Kai and Zhao Cuihua to lift his glass and take another drink.
However, this time when Liu Zheng drank the wine, as the liquid flowed over his tongue and he tasted it, his brow furrowed involuntarily.
Because he detected something unusual in the wine.
You see, he had studied traditional Chinese medicine, and during university, he had tasted plenty of herbal medicines.
Now, within this alcoholic flavor, there was a hint of the taste of Chinese medicinal herbs, and he could discern it.
"Come on, come on, what’s wrong with you, Cui Hua? Why aren’t you being hospitable? Hurry up and serve Liu Zheng some dishes!"
Watching his own wife dressed so scantily, sitting so close to Liu Zheng, Liu Kai not only didn’t get angry, but he was actually very pleased.
He held his cup and kept urging Liu Zheng to drink more.
