97: The preparations under the moon are coming to fruition at this moment

Fang Yun took the glass handed to him by Vavinia, raised it to his eyes, and observed it carefully by the firelight and lamplight.

Under the illumination of the light, the golden liquid appeared even more crystal clear. At the same time, a sweet aroma slowly drifted from the glass and reached Fang Yun's nose.

Fang Yun held the glass and examined it for a few seconds.

The crushed ice that hadn't completely dissolved in the glass settled at the bottom, reflecting a colorful light.

"I didn't look closely before, but now that I see it, just based on the appearance of this drink, it would probably sell for seven or eight hundred yuan in a bar."

Fang Yun gently shook the glass, letting the crushed ice float from the bottom, then brought it to his mouth and took a small sip.

"It's sweet on the palate, with a fragrant aftertaste, and not spicy at all."

"This drink gives a kind of illusion, as if it's not alcohol but a beverage, making it easy to drink too much inadvertently."

"To be able to mix a drink like this, Vavinia is quite the mixologist."

Sip after sip, the entire glass of golden butterfly honey aroma was quickly consumed by Fang Yun.

Fang Yun put down the glass, made a slight 'tsk' sound, and let out a sigh unique to finishing a drink.

"Ninety-nine percent, a rare item."

Then, Fang Yun pursed his lips and praised:

"Taste the golden butterfly honey aroma, enjoy a sweet life."

"Vavinia, this drink of yours is truly top-notch."

Vavinia, who had watched Fang Yun drink the entire time, showed a satisfied smile.

"Hehe, of course."

"Since that day three years ago, I've wanted to mix a drink that was uniquely mine."

"After a year of learning, two years ago, I successfully mixed the initial version of the golden butterfly honey aroma."

"At that time, it wasn't this sweet. Instead, amidst the sweetness, there was a hint of bitterness."

"Later, I continuously refined my mixology skills in my spare time, and at the same time, I kept adjusting the recipe and taste of the golden butterfly honey aroma."

"After two years of precipitation and refinement, I finally have this drink you're tasting now, which can be called a perfect 'top-notch' drink."

Speaking of this, Vavinia paused slightly, and her expression began to show some wistfulness and reminiscence.

"Three years of time are all condensed in this glass of drink."

"This drink represents beauty, sweetness, happiness, anticipation, hope, wishes, dreams, the future, life. It embodies all my insights about life over these past three years."

"Whenever I feel down, I'll have a glass, and my mood immediately improves a lot."

Vavinia raised her head, gazing into the unknown distance, and whispered softly with a tone of anticipation:

"Although I know it's difficult, I still hope that one day in the future, the beautiful life of my dreams can become a visible, tangible reality."

The lamplight shone on Vavinia's face, making her appear even more beautiful and moving.

Fang Yun looked at the expression of anticipation on Vavinia's face and listened to her gently unfolding voice. A sudden, inexplicable emotion welled up in his heart.

Driven by the emotions in his heart, Fang Yun took two steps towards Vavinia, coming to her side.

When Vavinia noticed Fang Yun's movement, she turned her head to look at him, blinking her eyes a couple of times with some confusion.

Fang Yun stared intently into Vavinia's eyes and said firmly:

"From now on, you don't need to rely on drinking to alleviate the melancholy in your heart, because there will no longer be any worries in your life."

"I will clear all obstacles on your path to happiness and turn the beautiful life of your dreams into reality."

Vavinia's eyes reflected Fang Yun's serious expression.

In the slightly dim environment, Vavinia suddenly felt as if Fang Yun was glowing.

Actually, Fang Yun didn't know that just as Vavinia fit his aesthetic preferences, he also fit hers.

Because Fang Yun had rescued Valentine from the Nightwalker twice before, from their first meeting, Vavinia had developed a certain fondness for Fang Yun, this "handsome man" who perfectly matched her aesthetic.

However, at that time, Vavinia, still wearing the mask of a cool older sister, didn't reveal this.

Later, Fang Yun single-handedly destroyed the enemy formation, annihilated the Black Hand settlement, thwarted the traitor's scheme, rescued Vavinia from the traitor, and was able to restrain himself during their moonlit encounter.

Each of these events, whether it was the strength Fang Yun displayed or the character he showed, silently increased Vavinia's favorable impression of him.

Coupled with the assistance of the chicken feather crown ability.

At this moment, Vavinia, looking at Fang Yun's solemn expression, was momentarily lost in thought.

Although reason told Vavinia that in this messed-up cyberpunk world, the promise Fang Yun made to her was too difficult to realize.

But Vavinia's emotions kept shouting in her ear:

"What he said must be true, and it will definitely come true."

Vavinia stared blankly at Fang Yun's handsome and rugged face, her gaze gradually becoming hazy, and she subconsciously nodded.

Then, Vavinia suddenly sobered up, remembering that she hadn't officially started dating Fang Yun yet. What he had just said seemed a bit too direct for their current relationship.

Thus, the naturally gentle and easily shy Vavinia's face immediately turned red.

Looking at Vavinia, who was flustered and stammering, unable to speak, Fang Yun's heart felt a tickle.

At this moment, as a man, Fang Yun definitely had to take the initiative. After all, he couldn't wait for the woman to respond; by then, the moment would have passed.

Fang Yun took another step towards Vavinia, standing close to her.

"Vavinia, be my girlfriend."

A simple confession, an outstanding effect.

Vavinia, who was playing with her hair to ease her nervousness and thinking about what to do next, froze when she heard Fang Yun's confession.

Vavinia opened her cherry-like mouth and looked at Fang Yun in surprise.

After looking into Fang Yun's eyes for a few seconds and confirming that he was being direct, Vavinia's already flushed cheeks became even redder.

In fact, during the subtle confession under the moon that time, Vavinia had already prepared herself to become Fang Yun's girlfriend.

But Fang Yun retreated, believing it wasn't the right time.

"Although what I did then was reasonable and well-founded, I still have to say, I was cowardly."

And now, driven by the surging emotions in his heart, Fang Yun declared: To hell with everything, I'm going to make Vavinia my girlfriend!

"Are you sure you're not just tipsy? (doge)"

"..."

A silent stillness spread between the two. As time passed, Fang Yun's breathing became more anxious, and his heartbeat grew heavier.

Vavinia watched Fang Yun's gaze gradually change from determined to pathetic. For some reason, her previously nervous mood suddenly relaxed.

Vavinia rubbed her cheeks, lowered her hand, and smiled gently.

As Fang Yun's eyes changed from sadness to joy, Vavinia suddenly threw herself into his arms, then raised her head and bravely kissed his lips.

Feeling the soft touch on his lips, Fang Yun widened his eyes, seemingly not expecting Vavinia to be so bold.

However, Fang Yun quickly reacted, wrapping his arms around Vavinia's slender waist and fully immersing himself in this innocent yet sweet kiss.

Both Fang Yun and Vavinia were experiencing "kissing" for the first time.

The two novice kissers, while showing their passion for each other without reservation, continuously explored ways of kissing that would bring pleasure to both of them.

From a simple touching of lips, to mutually sucking on lips and tongues, and then to exchanging saliva, Fang Yun and Vavinia were both lost in the moment, unable to extricate themselves.

"Peach-flavored lipstick, quite tasty."
