“This wine, from the taste, should be from Bordeaux [Clameron Winery].”
“A small village-style wine, that’s its specialty. It’s just that this wine is slightly less mellow, and lacks a hint of the sun’s fragrance. This means that the year this wine was produced, there should have been more rain. It wasn’t a particularly good year, so according to my guess, it should have been 2007.”
“In 2007, Bordeaux was rich in rain, which wasn’t good weather for the grape plantations.”
“In general, the quality of the wine produced this year was generally about the same.”
“But in comparison, the white wine from the same year was actually better than the red wine.”
Just as Jiang Wenxuan was ridiculing him, Chen Jing took a light sip. Then, he closed his eyes as if he was reminiscing and slowly spoke these words.
“[Clameron Winery] is only a level five winery in terms of rank. That’s why I said that this wine is considered average. But because it was produced in 2007 and is truly from Bordeaux, I also said that this wine is considered decent in the country.”
Chen Jing continued.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at the red words in front of him. He also read the text according to the script. It was just that he changed his tone and read it aloud in an unfathomable manner.
At this moment, he seemed to have a little understanding of this special ability.
It seemed that this ability was more detailed when it came to guessing items than when it came to ‘people’.
Just now, Chen Jing had only guessed in his heart that this wine was Bordeaux red wine.
Following that, the accuracy in front of him appeared as expected, and it also provided him with this detailed information.
As far as the wine in his hand was concerned, this information was even accurate to which batch and which wine vat of [Clameron Winery].
However, he did not say out this information that was so detailed that it was a little scary.
“You… Are you spouting nonsense?” Jiang Wenxuan was scared until he was stunned.
At the same time, he felt a little funny in his heart.
These wines had been poured by the waiters and placed here.
No one had seen the wine bottles. As for how old they were or where they came from, other than the organizer and the waiters who poured the wine, no one else knew.
Under such conditions, Chen Jing could say so many things just by tasting them?
He even said that they were produced by [Clameron Winery] in all seriousness. How blind was he to say that they were from 2007?
“Stop bragging. With just this taste, you can tell that it was produced in 2007? You really know how to make things up.” Jiang Wenxuan also took a sip.
He could not taste anything, but as long as he thought that it was a foreign wine, no matter what, he felt that it was a good wine.
However, Lu Yanyan’s reaction was different from Jiang Wenxuan’s.
After she heard these words, she called out to her father in surprise.
Then, her father walked over.
“What’s wrong, Yanyan?” Her father was in a suit, looking very gentlemanly.
Actually, Lu Yanyan’s family’s wealth could be ranked in the top ten in Mingyang City.
Because of this, people like her father, besides greeting her classmates at the beginning of the party, spent the rest of the time talking to some celebrities.
This party didn’t just invite people from Science Class 2.
Some of Lu Yanyan’s father’s business friends were also invited.
“Dad, let me introduce you. This is Chen Jing from our class,” Lu Yanyan introduced.
She didn’t introduce Jiang Wenxuan because their families were already very familiar with each other. Their parents were also old acquaintances.
Lu Jingtong smiled slightly and nodded politely. “I’ve heard about you from Yanyan. I heard that you’re a math genius. I’ve long wanted to see you for myself. I’m so lucky today.”
Businessmen were good at putting on airs. Not only did he praise Chen Jing, he was also extremely polite.
Before Chen Jing could say anything, he heard Lu Yanyan say to Lu Jingtong in surprise, “Dad, Chen Jing just tasted this red wine.”
“Oh? That’s not easy to guess. Why don’t you tell me what he tasted?” Lu Jingtong smiled and patted her head with a face full of affection.
Lu Yanyan said, “He only tasted it once and already knew the year and origin of this wine. By the way, I called you over because I wanted to ask if this wine is what Chen Jing said it was.”
“Oh?” Lu Jingtong was slightly surprised. “So this classmate of yours knows so much about red wine?”
“He said that this wine has a country-like flavor. It should be from Bordeaux [Clameron Winery]. He also said that this wine lacks a hint of the sun’s fragrance and that it should be from 2007. Because Bordeaux had a lot of rain that year, the quality of the common red wine was slightly inferior to other years.” Lu Yanyan repeated what Chen Jing had said previously.
Jiang Wenxuan watched from the side and felt very uncomfortable. He thought to himself that Chen Jing was just spouting nonsense. Was there a need to flatter him so much?
He also interrupted and said, “Yanyan, don’t take it too seriously. He was just spouting nonsense. How could he be able to taste the year and the place of origin with just a casual taste? Does he really think he’s the god of wine?”
Lu Yanyan ignored him. She only pestered her father and asked, “Dad, this wine was arranged by you, so you should know. Is Chen Jing right?”
When Lu Jingtong heard this, he seemed to re-evaluate Chen Jing. “You said that it was produced by Bordeaux Clameron Winery? The year is 2007?”
Chen Jing stood up at this moment and smiled. “Actually, it was just a wild guess. Sorry for making Uncle Lu laugh.”
Lu Jingtong clicked his tongue. He smiled and said to Lu Yanyan, “Yanyan, I didn’t expect that there would be someone among your classmates who knows so much about wine. Indeed, his sense of taste is very sensitive. I heard that only professional wine tasters have this kind of ability. This wine is indeed produced by Bordeaux Clameron Winery. As for the year…”
At this point, he called over a waiter and gave an order. It seemed that he didn’t remember too much.
Then, the waiter brought over an unopened bottle of wine.
He took a look at the year and his eyes lit up. “Tsk, not bad indeed. It’s indeed from 2007. Little friend, I didn’t expect you to be so skilled.”
“Wow, Chen Jing, you’re so amazing. You actually guessed correctly,” Lu Yanyan exclaimed in surprise.
“This… is it really from 2007?” Jiang Wenxuan also moved closer to take a look. When he got closer to the bottle, he indeed saw the words 2007.
“Waiter!” Lu Jingtong suddenly called the waiter again and whispered a few times. Not long after, the waiter brought a new glass of wine from behind the counter.
Lu Jingtong seemed to be interested as well. He took the new glass of wine and handed it to Chen Jing.

“Little friend, try this again and see if you can taste anything.”
Chen Jing did not decline. He picked up the glass and tasted it lightly. Then, he closed his eyes and pretended to savor it.
Lu Yanyan looked at him with anticipation, waiting for the moment to witness a miracle.
However, Jiang Wenxuan was unconvinced. “He must have seen it by chance just now, so he deliberately pretended to be ignorant. Now, he definitely can’t do it.”
Chen Jing closed his eyes slightly and muttered for three seconds. Then, he slowly said, “I’m sorry, Vice Class Monitor. I’m really good at this..”
