Chapter 0128 [Unwilling to accept]

"Haha," McCoff waved his hand, "Sir, I only know Italian in simple language. Sorry, I'm actually from the UK."
Lin Fei looked dazed and said in English: "It's nothing, is there anything wrong with this gentleman?"
Mrs. Martha smiled and said, "Young man, my husband is very curious about your English accent. Are you from Xia?"
Lin Fei seemed to react and smiled and said, "So that's it. Not bad. I am from Xia. My name is Lin Fei. This is my lover, Su Yingxue."
Su Yingxue also greeted the couple, feeling a little sweet. Although she knew it was fake, she found that she was quite enjoying this "play". At this moment, her confidence in Lin Fei increased.
The McCauffs also introduced themselves, but did not tell the background of their company. Obviously, they did not intend to talk to Lin Fei about the mall, but were just curious about Lin Fei.
"Mr. Lin, why do you have the accent of my hometown?" McCoff asked with interest.
"Mr. McCoff's hometown is Derry? No wonder, I actually spent some time in Northern Ireland, and Delhi is one of my favorite European cities." Lin Fei looked sincere with a lot of emotion.
Su Yingxue could probably guess Lin Fei's methods, and was surprised that the man's foreign language ability was so meticulous that he could imitate a small-scale foreign dialect pronunciation.
She cooperated with her timely response and said, "Lin Fei, it turns out that your English accent is from Northern Ireland?"
Lin Fei shook his head, "To be precise, it is the accent of County Delhi, because I admire the ancient Irish poet Thomas Moore. His poems will only appear perfect only if they are recited with the most local accent, so I learned it intentionally."
Hearing these words, McCoff and his wife were even more surprised. McCoff showed a look of surprise on his face and said excitedly: "Haha, it's simply unbelievable. I didn't expect that Mr. Lin would know the great poet Moore in our hometown?! That is indeed our pride, an amazing figure in the 189th century!"
McCoff's face was red and he was very proud.
Lin Fei smiled and praised: "Yes, it's a pity that most people nowadays, when they mention Thomas Moore, they only think of the one in England. I think it's really unfair to Moore."
"Haha, at least someone like Mr. Lin can still remember such an amazing poet." A trace of wisdom flashed in McCoff's eyes, and he suddenly said, "I don't know what poem Mr. Lin likes the most?"
He is not a fool. Everything Lin Fei showed was too coincidental. He had reason to suspect that Lin Fei deliberately approached the couple with some purpose.
Su Yingxue's heart also reached her throat. Lin Fei said too much that he shouldn't have said it so carefully.
But unexpectedly, Lin Fei just thought for a moment and recited: "the-time-Ive-lost-in-wooing, in-watching-and-pursuing, the-light-that-lies-in-womans-eyes-has-been-my-hearts-undoing...
I admire this kind of crazy words and the unruly and romantic expression expressed in the poems."
Lin Fei expressed a few classic verses of Moore in a standard Delhi accent and commented on it.
Both McCauff and his wife are well-educated and received British aristocratic education since childhood. Naturally, they knew that Lin Fei was definitely not talking nonsense, and this is indeed the original text of Moore's poem.
Even the Delhi accent that Lin Fei mentioned was so authentic that it was like a local, and it was impossible to hear that it was said by a Xia people.
It would be crazy if a Xia man specialized in learning the Delhi accent and memorized Moore's poems, traveled across the ocean to approach the couple at this cocktail party.
So, the two really believed that it was a coincidence that Lin Fei met them, and it was God's will.
Su Yingxue was confused when she heard this. The various amazing performances this man brought to her were endless, and the variety of unpopular knowledge was becoming increasingly difficult to understand!
Compared to Lin Fei's superb skills, what she is even more powerless to resist is Lin Fei's extremely knowledgeable talent. What kind of person can store so much knowledge in his mind?
You know, she chose the McCauffs and his wife, and she just picked a pair of them casually. Lin Fei couldn't prepare in advance. He just opened his mouth and tugged them, which scared the foreigners!
This kind of mysterious feeling of man made Su Yingxue feel a little relieved. She really wanted to uncover the man's past layer by layer and see how he grew up...
Lin Fei was also in a very respectful tone and pretended to turn his head to Su Yingxue and introduced it to him: "Dear, do you know that Delhi has a nickname called Maiden-City, the city of Divinity."
Su Yingxue was not acting this time, but she really asked blankly: "Why do you call me that?"
Lin Fei talked: "In 1690, during the War in Ireland, Delhi was besieged by the army and bombed by artillery for a long time. But during this period, the city walls were never penetrated by artillery shells. Not only that war, Delhi was also one of the only cities in Europe whose walls had not been broken. So I said, this is really an amazing city."
McCoff was becoming more and more happy and proud when he heard these words. He didn't like others to treat him as an Englishman in his life. He hated England. Because of his accent, he was ridiculed by the English nobles when he was young and was ridiculed as a country noble.
Like many Northern Irish people, he has always regarded himself as a Northern Irish deep down.
Lin Fei's words "sincerely" praise of Delhi, Northern Ireland, are the most useful to listen to.
It can be said that his favorability towards Lin Fei has increased dramatically. He thinks that this young man is indeed very talented, and he is very good at chatting whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Martha also saw that her husband was very happy, giggled, had a good impression of Lin Fei, and asked, "Mr. Lin is really good at speaking, but it is true. There are not many young people as knowledgeable as Mr. Lin.
I have a question. I just saw that Mr. Lin chose Brunillo, who had four years of cherry, was there any special reason? Why did you conclude that this wine is better if it was four years of cherry?"
At this time, the taster had poured two glasses of sobered wine.
Lin Fei picked up a cup, handed it to the beautiful woman, and said, "Madam, you can try it, and you will know if I'm right."
Martha smiled and took it, shook it gently, and took a sip.
After savoring it carefully, Martha said in surprise: "Strange, it's true. Although the taste is a little lighter, the taste is better."
The taster also smiled and said, "This lady, this batch of Brunillo is indeed of better quality in four years, but usually the guests do not believe that the taste of red wine is not judged by the price."
Su Yingxue also picked up a cup and tasted it. She found that the taste was really good. She thought to herself how Lin Fei did this? He didn't taste anything else just now, so he directly asserted that Chen was good in the past four years.
McCoff and Martha both looked at Lin Fei in surprise. The young man could not see "young" at all, as if he was a knowledgeable old man.
"Mr. Lin, may you still have a unique study of wine?" McCoff said in surprise.
Lin Fei looked ordinary, shook his head, shook his nectar in the glass, and said casually: "It's just a little bit of it. Red wine is the oldest wine after all. 8,000 years ago, the human ancestors in Georgia began to drink. 6,000 years ago, Armenia began to brew red wine.
Although I don’t drink often, understanding the history of red wine is equivalent to understanding the historical origin and development of mankind. Red wine carries too many things for mankind…
Charles Viere Baudelaire, the great French symbolist poet of the 19th century, once said, "Red wine is like a man". The beauty of the world, gratitude, carries it, and the same, ugliness, hatred, and all negative emotions will be involved. I think the two should also understand it."
McCoff and Martha couldn't help but nodded with emotion, and couldn't help but admire the young man's spiritual realm. They actually felt a little respect for the young Lin Fei.
Su Yingxue, who was standing beside her, was almost confused. This guy said that he could act and was slanderous. This guy was obviously a super genius who was stunned!
