Huai Wine

Huai Wine: Emotions Hidden in the Fragrance, Love Drunk Deep in the Bones “The strongest liquor in the world is a secret kept for twenty years; the most poisonous medicine is a kiss given with a sincere heart.” Cheng Qiuyan was born with a destiny tied to brewing wine. Her lips could distinguish a hundred flavors, her fingertips could gauge the temperature of wine, and even her breath carried an intoxicating fragrance. Yet she had no idea that the mysterious recipe her father left behind, Swallow’s Return Wine, concealed a deadly past. Then, on a rainy night, Zhao Tieshan barged into her winery. He was tall and stern, with a crescent-shaped scar on the back of his neck, like a key that could unlock the most secret lock within her. Twenty years ago, Lin Jianhai’s wine-brewing research team, Group Delta, was swallowed by a mining disaster, leaving behind only a tattered notebook. The veteran Zhao Tieshan appeared, but she had no idea whether this man had come to save her or destroy her. He taught her how to judge wine and guided her hand as she adjusted the temperature. When their passion grew too strong to resist, they gave themselves to each other beside the wine vats. From beneath the old locust tree in Qingshan Village, to the financial battlegrounds of New York, to the White House state banquet hall, Qiuyan and Tieshan use the oldest wisdom of winemaking to fight Zhou Hu’s high-tech poisoned wine. The stakes of this battle are the lives of millions, and their hearts, already lost to each other. Huai Wine: Only after getting drunk do you know the wine’s strength; only after falling in love do you understand the weight of true feeling.
