It was located in the Jingxia District of Shanghai, a whole block of agritourism area. He once chatted with a business person and heard from his that this place seemed special. Their cars entered the road going through the quiet bamboo forest; a few minutes later, a shimmering small lake was visible, with an antique pavilion standing on the lakeside. Violet lights interspersed there, creating an imaginary, dreamlike ambient.
Inside the Aromatic Bamboo Forest, 80% of the parking space was full of cars, many of them were luxury models. Everyone got out after the three cars parked in unoccupied spaces. A handsome security guard wearing a headset greeted them, guiding them toward that unceasing, undulating thin track leading to the ancient pavilion.

"Welcome, please follow me."
The waitress was very pleasant to see. She had arranged a private box after receiving the notification from the security guard. She guided the ten people to the second floor and entered a spacious private box with beautiful decorations, and said with a smile, "Ladies and gentlemen, would you like to see our restaurant’s menu? Or would you like to have free orders?"
Xie Feng picked up a menu book on the table. After reading it a few times, he smiled and said, "Alright, give us your specialty dishes! We brought some wine for ourselves, but give us some of yours too!"
"All right! Please wait for a minute!"
The waitress eyes swept over two bottles held by Xiao Luo. She cleverly masked her surprised expression and retreated with a smile.
When the waitress retired and only Xie Feng and the rest were inside the private box, Xiao Luo’s eyes glowed slightly and he said aloud: "My God, did you see how the beautiful waitress looked at me? Too bad I’m too busy, you guys can try to flirt with her".
"Pfft..."
"Hahaha"
Everyone roared with laughter.
Xie Feng himself was also amused by Xiao Luo’s amazed expression. It was rustic, yet full of pure emotions. He walked two steps to Xiao Luo’s side, patting his shoulders, and then said with a chuckle, "Old Xiao, I’m sorry to tell you that the waitress was probably looking at the two bottles of wine in your hands".
"Eh? What’s so good about these two bottles?". Asked Li Feiyang, the tallest of Mu Wuying’s friends.
Inside the private box only Xie Feng, Xie Yao, Mu Wuying, Yue Kai and Hu Chen knew the value of the two boxes of wine in the hands of Xiao Luo. After all, it was two Nectar of Heaven. Not only its monetary value, its importance in high society is very important. Normal students or employees will never understand its true value.
While Gu Qianxue is too innocent to pay attention to things like this, Xiao Luo, Li Feiyang, Jiang Xinyie and Tang Tang were normal university students. They naturally couldn’t afford to spend nearly 20,000 yuan on a bottle of wine.
The person who answered Li Xinjie’s question was Yue Kai. "The wine that old Xiao holds is the most expensive and exquisite wine in all of China. The name of the wine is Nectar of Heaven, the value of each bottle..-" Yue Kai suddenly smiled slyly and looked at Xiao Luo:
"Old Xiao, what do you think is the value of each bottle you hold in your hands?".
Xiao Luo thought for a moment and then answered: "4000 yuan".
In truth, a bottle of wine worth 4,000 yuan is extremely expensive, considering that a normal worker gets 6,000 or 7,000 yuan a month as salary.
However, Yue Kai shook his head and stretched out two fingers.
Xiao Luo frowned and said: "2000 yuan? I don’t think this is the most expensive wine then, Yue Kai".
Hu Chen couldn’t watch any more and said, "It’s 20,000 yuan per bottle. In other words, you have 40,000 yuan in your hands right now, old Xiao".
*Ssss!*
Various sounds of people breathing cold air resounded in the room.
When Xiao Luo heard about the true value of the bottles in his hands he almost fainted. He quickly and carefully put them on the table and looked at Xie Feng.
"B-big brother Xie, why did you give me something so dangerous?". Said Xiao Luo looking at Xie Feng with a bitter look. Seeing his pure attitude and not hiding his true self, Li Feiyan’s eyes glowed slightly. No one knows what she was thinking.
Xie Feng applauded with both hands without wanting to continue the theme of money. "Tonight we only have one mission. Dine, drink, have fun laughing and drinking alcohol until everyone’s world starts spinning. The dinner is my gift to all of you".
Hu Chen and Yue Kai also applauded and raised their thumbs, "Good! Big brother Xie will be the host for tonight!".
In the midst of the joyful atmosphere, everyone took a seat. Xie Yao naturally sat beside Xie Feng and Gu Qianxue practically ran to the other free space beside him while Mu Wuying sat elegantly beside Gu Qianxue.
Although Yue Kai and Hu Chen wanted to sit beside Mu Wuying, they were too embarrassed after they saw her calm face.
"Xie Feng, it could be that the sons of this year’s important local tycoons all gathered in your dorm? A Land Rover Range Rover series, a BMW, and an Audi. These are luxurious cars that even many college students who have graduated long ago can’t afford, no?" Jiang Xinjie looked gorgeous. She was also the one among the girls who loved to smile the most, a smile had never left her face since they met.
"I really don’t know if all those people gathered in our dorm," Xie Feng chuckled and said, "But Yue Kai and Hu Chen indeed hail from well-off families".
Xie Feng looked at his two friends and they immediately understood what he was trying to say.
Yue Kai was the quickest to speak up: "My family has a steel business. Although it’s not a super big business, the profits are actually not bad. Unfortunately, the old man in my family is strict about education so that I can buy those BMW Sedan I had to work since I was 15 years old".
Hearing Yue Kai’s explanation, Jiang Xinjie’s eyes lit up and a smile involuntarily appeared on her face.
Yue Kai not only comes from a wealthy family, she also noticed that he was a good guy after chatting on the way here. Although they must still know each other better, she already had a favorable opinion of him.
Along with the great-looking and aromatic dishes being delivered to the table, as young as they were, everyone quickly became familiar with each other, and merrily chatted and laughed. However, to maintain their gentlemanly manners and elegance, Yue Kai and Hu Chen duo looked more refined when had a bite.
"What a nice wine. This one is really great. It’s much better than the homebrew wine we made in my family." Xiao Luo gulped half a cup of Nectar of Haven down to his belly and sighed in praise.
Xie Feng secretly rolled his eyes. If the formula to create the Nectar of Heaven were so simple that any family could do it, it would not be as unique and expensive as it is today.
There was simply no need to criticize, nor to talk about it.
Xie Feng was chatting with Xie Yao until Mu Wuying, who was chatting with Gu Qianxue, suddenly asked: "Right, Xie Feng, do you still remember that piano song?".
He was slightly confused for a moment before he understood what Mu Wuying was referring to.
Xie Feng always had a passion for the piano, so he learned to play it when the Xie family adopted him. However, the first song he played was a melody he never learned. It was a melody that was in his head and unconsciously, his fingers moved alone through the piano keys.
When he was still Mu Wuying’s boyfriend he told her about this melody. But he doesn’t understand why she suddenly talked about it.
Seeing Xie Feng’s confused look, Mu Wuying smiled slightly and explained: "Actually, before I returned to Shanghai I was abroad. Macau, to be exact. There I met superstar Shen Xinya and by chance we became friends. She sang a song for me and unconsciously I couldn’t help but think about the melody of your piano, I felt that it would really fit with the lyrics of her song".
Xie Feng frowned slightly. In the last week, since Samsara Online officially opened its servers, the number of times he heard Shen Xinya’s name is so many that he has forgotten the count.
Honestly, Xie Feng does not pay attention to the entertainment world as it is a dirty world, women and men sell themselves for popularity. So he just feels disgusted by this world of superstars.
Even without paying attention, he heard this woman’s name so many times that he probably can’t forget it again.
Still, knowing Mu Wuying, Xie Feng could not help but be curious, so he asked unconsciously: "Oh? What is the name of that song?"
Mu Wuying smiled beautifully and answered as she settled her hair, "The name of the song is Love of God".
Xie Feng was slightly dazed before reacting, "Isn’t that the name of the first song that this superstar, Shen Xinya, wrote?".
Mu Wuying nodded with a smile: "That’s right, I see you heard about her too. It seems that she is more popular than I thought since even you, who are ignorant of the entertainment world, know her".
Xie Feng secretly rolled his eyes. He heard about Shen Xinya and her concert in three weeks so many times that it would be strange not to know her, even for him.
