In the small villa, on the main bedroom balcony of the second floor.
The moon shone bright, and the stars were scarce, with a slightly warm night breeze.
A bottle of medicinal liquor sat on the small round white table.
Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou sat leisurely in the courtyard swing chair.
She poured a glass and placed it in front of Huo Xingzhou, saying, "Give it a try, this is Bazhen Wine."
Bazhen Wine is made by infusing ingredients like Angelica, Atractylodes, Rehmannia, Ginseng, and others, which can nourish the qi and blood and regulate the spleen and stomach.
They had agreed while in the countryside that they would drink medicinal liquor upon returning to Haicheng.
Tonight was the perfect time to celebrate.
Huo Xingzhou took it and downed it in one gulp. After savoring it for a while, he said, "This tastes different from the Bazhen Wine I've had before. Did you improve the recipe?"
"Really?"
Qiao Xi felt a bit doubtful. She poured herself a cup and took two sips.
