"Really?" Joyce Shaw looked skeptical, silently finished her mango juice, and went to the living room to find another drink.
At this moment, Francis Johnson finally arrived, coming alone and brought a bottle of Maotai.
Kenneth Osborne hurried over with a smile and said, "It's an honor to have you here, Mr. Johnson. Why bring Maotai? Everyone's driving today, so no hard liquor will be provided."
Francis Johnson laughed and said, "It's for Lawrence's family, her mom, uncle, and mentor. Where are they?"
Kenneth pointed to a small lounge area, "Over there, do you want to go?"
"I'll go later," Francis put the bottle of Maotai on the table, took a beer for himself, and walked with Kenneth to the balcony to talk.
Soon, a few people gathered to examine the bottle of Maotai.
One said, "This Maotai isn't your usual Maotai. Look at those two characters on the seal; anything with those is not for sale publicly."
"Who is he? How could he get his hands on such Maotai?"
