Even though Zhao Qiankun's hatred for Bai Ye made his teeth itch, Bai Ye had, after all, taken a drink, and if Zhao Qiankun continued to press the issue, it would only draw more attention to the matter. So he had no choice but to forcibly suppress the anger in his heart, managing a forced smile towards Bai Ye, and drank the wine in his cup.
Because he was the squad leader of the Qiankun Mercenary Group, and the Mercenary Group was the second largest power in Beishi Base, he had chosen to serve only fine wines for the sake of keeping up appearances. However, whether he was too angry or Bai Ye had upset him, the usually sweet wine tasted exceptionally bitter in his mouth. Zhao Qiankun struggled to gulp down a large mouthful of wine, and because he drank it so hurriedly, the bitter taste almost made him spit it out!
