As soon as Albert heard Charlie saying that he should prepare some plain water, he immediately spoke up," Master Wade, do you want me to brew some good Dragon Well tea and send it over here instead? The tea leaves have just been picked from Sudbury two days ago before being sent over to Aurous Hill. It is quite good."
Albert obviously did not know why Charlie had asked him to prepare some plain water. So, Charlie simply smiled slightly and waved his hand as he said," There's no need to go through so much trouble. Just prepare the plain water.”
As he spoke, Charlie spoke up and said again, "Oh, by the way, help me to prepare a fruit knife too."
Although Albert did not know why, he nodded immediately as he said, "Okay, Master Wade. I'll go and prepare it now and have it sent over right away!"
Yule, Rachel, and Quinn also did not understand why Charlie wanted Albert to prepare the plain water and fruit knife, but they did not ask him about it. 4
After that, Charlie smiled and said, "Uncle Golding, Aunt Golding, Nana, let's sit down first!" "Okay!" Yule laughed and said, "Charlie, it’s your
birthday today! I'm so happy. We have to enjoy a couple of drinks together!"
Charlie did not hesitate to nod as he said, "No problem, Uncle Golding! I'll drink with you as much as you like!"
After saying that, Charlie took the initiative to open a bottle of Moutai as he poured two glasses for Yule and himself. 2
Quinn also hurriedly opened the Romanee-Conti red wine, and she slowly poured it into the decanter as she said to Charlie, "Brother Charlie, I have a performance tonight, so I'll not be able to drink too much. I'll give you and my parents a toast later, then I’ll not be drinking anymore. I’ll accompany you to drink more when there is an opportunity for us to do s 0 after the performance!"
Charlie laughed and said, "It does not matter. Your performance will not be affected even if you drink more."
Quinn stuck her tongue out. "The performance tonight is so important, so I do not dare to make any mistakes. If I were to drink too much and cause a scene or make a joke out of myself on stage, that would not matter too much to me. However, the main point is that everything will be finished if I were to ruin the performance tonight." 3
Charlie patted his chest as he assured her, "Nana, trust me and drink as much as you want to. As long as I am here, I'll never allow your performance to be affected i
n any way."
