If I get angry and smash the shop, everyone will lose face.”
Xu Qingrou's face was full of anxiety. She was usually calm, but as a woman, she would inevitably panic when she encountered such a thing. The next day, nothing happened. It was calm until the next evening. Feng Xi woke up yawning and glanced at the time. He got up, washed up, and went to work at Orchid Heart Bar.
Feng Xi's job did not have a fixed position. When he first came to this place, Xu Qingrou told him to " do as he pleases ". Speaking of which, it was not considered tiring. Usually, when he had nothing to do, he was mostly bored.
After the preparations were done, when Feng Xi arrived at the bar, it was already night.
Along the way, a few colleagues he knew greeted each other and went in. When he reached the bar counter, Feng Xi was about to order a glass of water, but he suddenly realized that the bartender was a different person, and he looked very familiar.
Ms. Tune had her hair tied up in a ponytail and was wearing a pink suit. She looked very young, just like Bai Xiaoxiao.
Wait a minute…Damn, isn't this Bai Xiaoxiao?
He stared at Bai Xiaoxiao with his mouth agape. The loli returned his angry gaze.
When Bai Xiaoxiao saw Feng Xi, she stopped mixing the wine. She placed her hands on her hips and shouted,""Big liar! Why don't you keep your word at all? You've already lost and you have to pay back!”
Feng Xi didn't take it seriously. He waved his hand." Do you think I'm like you? How can I eat if I don't work?"”
Bai Xiaoxiao didn't care about that and continued to scold Feng Xi.
The two of them quivered. Xu Qingrou seemed to have heard the commotion and walked over from the customer's side with a smile."Oh, right, Feng Xi, let me introduce you. This is my best friend, Bai Xiaoxiao. The bartender in our shop left because of something, so she came to help out recently.”
I think she coaxed him away with money. Bestie? She wanted to make love to you.
Feng Xi recalled Bai Xiaoxiao's vow to pursue Xu Qingrou, and he could not help but feel evil in his heart.
In reality, although Xu Qingrou and Bai Xiaoxiao were best friends, their personalities were completely different.
Xu Qingrou was a typical Jiangnan woman. She had a gentle personality, and when she smiled, two dimples would appear on her face. She was very good-looking. Moreover, because she had been running a bar for a long time, she was very decent in her conduct. She was much better than Bai Xiaoxiao.
The only thing that gave Feng Xi a headache was that she always seduced him, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Every now and then, their clothes would fall off and their sensitive parts would bump into each other.
The two of them finally stopped quarreling after Xu Qingrou arrived. Feng Xi soon realized that Bai Xiaoxiao seemed to be deliberately putting on a show in front of Xu Qingrou. She had been putting in a lot of effort, and from time to time, she would even perform a fancy move, tossing the cocktail glass around. Although her movements were a little awkward, it was obvious that she had learned it from a good bartender.
Seeing Feng Xi sizing her up, she became more and more pleased with herself. She seemed to feel that she was better than Feng Xi and smiled happily.
Feng Xi pursed his lips and didn't argue with this little girl. He turned to lie on the counter and planned to sleep.
However, at this moment, a shout suddenly came from the bar.
"What kind of lousy bar do you guys run? Is this the service attitude? I'm telling you, if you can't solve the problem today, believe it or not, I'll immediately get someone to smash this place!”
Feng Xi looked up and saw a young girl in the bar apologizing to a table of customers. She seemed to be explaining, but soon, she was slapped aside by a man.
"Call your lady boss over!"
The man was about twenty years old. When he spoke, he deliberately looked at Xu Qingrou. It was obvious that he had ulterior motives.
Feng Xi yawned.
Xu Qingrou quickly put on a smile and walked over."What's going on?"
Feng Xi followed behind her and heard the man say,""Beauty Xu, how did you store this Merlin Dtton for me? It's worth more than 8,000 USD, and you actually spoiled it? I give you 5,000 yuan as a storage fee every month, and this is how you do things?”
Xu Qingrou glanced at the cocktail on the table, and her expression changed slightly.
Although the Merlin Danton that cost more than 8,000 dollars wasn't a masterpiece, it was made by the master bartender, Marell. It could be considered the best cocktail.
Even without the diamonds that came with the wine, which were worth thousands of dollars, the compensation for this glass of wine alone was estimated to be tens of thousands.
Seeing that there were more and more people around to watch the show, she gritted her teeth and said,"Mr. Qin, don't worry. Our shop is willing to compensate you for your losses.”
"Compensate for the loss? I'm short of tens of thousands of yuan?" The young man sneered." I brought my friend here today to take a look at my cocktail collection. You've embarrassed me. I won't be able to settle the matter if I lose money."”
As he spoke, he pointed at the cocktail."I'll give you two choices. Either you make a cocktail that's exactly the same as this one, or you drink this one.”
Xu Qingrou's expression turned even uglier when she heard this.
This aggressive young man was called Qin Zheng. He was the son of a rich family. His family was quite powerful. If he did not handle it well today, the bar would probably have to close down.
However, Xu Qingrou found it difficult to satisfy his request. This cup of Merlin's Dainton was originally a limited edition concoction that the bar had specially invited a master bartender to sell. Now that he had flown back to his country, how could he make an identical cup at this moment?
Obviously, Qin Zheng wanted to force Xu Qingrou to drink this cup of wine.
Feng Xi knew what he was up to. He pursed his lips and turned to Bai Xiaoxiao, who had come over."Hey, your girlfriend is in trouble. Why aren't you helping her out?”
Bai Xiaoxiao snorted and pushed him away.""You don't have to say that."
She parted the crowd and walked in with a confident look. She said to Qin Zheng: "Isn't it just a cup of Merlin Dendon? I've learned how to make this wine before. I'll make it for you.”
Qin Zheng sized her up with a disdainful expression."Hehe, just you?"
"What about me? Let me tell you, I'm a good bartender. I'm more than enough to make a Merlin Danton.”Bai Xiaoxiao was very dissatisfied with Qin Zheng's look of contempt towards her. As she spoke, she went back to the bar counter to get a cocktail glass and a few bottles of wine that she had prepared and began to mix the drinks.
Feng Xi rolled his eyes.
Even though Merlin Danton wasn't a secret, and there were even a lot of so-called bartending guides on the Internet, it wasn't to the extent that just anyone could make it. If one didn't have Master Bartending skills, trying it would be asking for humiliation.
Bai Xiaoxiao was definitely not a master bartender.
As expected, when she held the cocktail glass and the cocktail pot, she did it properly. Her movements were also somewhat accurate. However, when she opened the lid and poured the wine into the glass, it was like a mixture of oil and water. Not only was it abnormally turbid, but the layering was also uneven. It was completely different from the glass on the table.
Bai Xiaoxiao didn't seem to expect that she would fail, and her face turned red.
"This is the Merlin Danton that you transferred?" It's ridiculous. I think any child can make a better cocktail than you.”
Bai Xiaoxiao was so angry that her face was as red as a monkey's butt. She opened her mouth and was about to argue with him.
Qin Zheng ignored her and turned to look at Xu Qingrou."Boss Xu, have you thought about it? You should be innocent. Don't force me.
She hesitated for a moment, looked at the glass of wine on the table, and took a deep breath as if she had made up her mind.
However, just as she was about to speak, she suddenly saw a figure scuttling out from behind her.
Feng Xi walked past Xu Qingrou and grabbed the cocktail on the table. Then, under everyone's dumbfounded gazes, he downed it in one gulp.
He swirled the empty cup and grinned at Qin Zheng."Well, there's nothing wrong with me drinking it. You might have eaten too much chili and gotten angry, so there's a problem with your taste buds.”
Qin Zheng is obviously stunned for a moment before he becomes furious: "Are you f * cking courting death? You dare to drink my wine collection?"
Feng Xi shrugged." Alright, it's just a cup of Merlin Dendon. It's not anything good. If you want to drink it, I can make you a cup on the spot."”
"Mix a cup?" Qin Zheng laughed in anger. Just like that silly woman just now? Alright, I'll give you a chance. But if you can't get the exact same one, I'll make sure you can't leave this bar today!”
Orchid Heart Bar was mainly in a casual style. There were no DJs playing. Usually, everyone would sit together in two or three groups, drinking and listening to music. It was very quiet. At this moment, Qin Zheng's continuous singing immediately attracted a large number of people.
Those who were more knowledgeable saw his appearance and immediately began to discuss in low voices.
"D * mn, isn't that Qin Zheng?"
"Qin Zheng? Who is Qin Zheng?"
"Damn, you don't even know him? He is the son of our Qin Guangguo! Do you know Guangxia Real Estate? It's his family's!"
"Guangxia Real Estate? Was it that local real estate developer who was good at both black and white? No way, his family was so rich, yet he came to such a place to drink?”
"Shh, shh, keep your voice down. I think he's most likely interested in Xu Qingrou.”
"Tsk tsk, then wouldn't this kid be in a very miserable state if he stood up for Xu Qingrou? I heard that Guangxia Real Estate often used underhanded methods on the common people when they demolished the buildings. If he were to provoke Qin Zheng today, he would definitely lose an arm or a leg.”
Feng Xi did not have the time to care about the people who were watching the show. He calmly walked to the bar counter and slowly used the juicer to make two glasses of juice. Then, he picked up the mixing tools that Bai Xiaoxiao had used and washed them before starting to make his move.
He first poured the base rum into the glass and added a little Grey Goose vodka to shake it evenly. Then, he took out a measuring glass and filled it with 10 milliliters of Cointreau liqueur, 10 milliliters of soda water, 20 milliliters of syrup, and a small glass of whiskey. Then, he covered the cap and began to shake it slowly.
In the beginning, he was still quite normal. At most, his movements were a little more standard than Bai Xiaoxiao's. However, when he switched the bartender in his right hand to his left hand, his speed suddenly changed.
The shaking speed was so fast that no one could see his movements clearly. Qin Zheng's eyes blurred. Before he could recover, the bartender in Feng Xi's hand suddenly disappeared.
"F * ck, he flew up."
Someone shouted from the side.
Everyone quickly looked up. Then, they saw the cocktail flask draw an arc and fall from the sky. Feng Xi did not catch it, but instead, he gently pushed it with his hand.
The cocktail jug spun around his arm like a spinning top. At the same time, the jug's mouth loosened, and the wine immediately flowed out of the mouth of the jug following the centrifugal force.
Feng Xi was calm. He raised the bartender with one hand and kept it spinning. With his other hand, he took mint leaves and crushed ice and put them in. Then, he covered the lid and pulled it again. The bartender began to spin forward along his arm.
"F * ck, that's awesome!"
"This is f * cking godly."
The group of people watching from the side were very excited and kept shouting and cheering.
Xu Qingrou was also watching attentively. She seemed to have thought of something, and a strange light flashed across her beautiful eyes. She seemed to be talking to herself," As expected of the man I've taken a fancy to. His skills are even better than the master bartender who spent more than a million yuan to hire…"
Bai Xiaoxiao, who was beside him, heard this and snorted indignantly.
Feng Xi was not excited at all. He was very calm. Not long after, he grabbed the rotating bartender and was about to pour the wine.
However, at this moment, with a barely noticeable sound of wind breaking, a sharp needle suddenly flew out from the crowd and shot straight at Feng Xi's arm holding the bartender.
Feng Xi's attention was completely focused on mixing the wine at the moment. After being stimulated by this, he reflexively flicked his finger.
He only reacted when he knocked the needle away.
He quickly glanced around the bar.
In the right corner, a woman in black looked up and smiled at him as if she was responding. Then, she disappeared in an instant.
