30. Cocktails

The amateur bar is located on the top floor of a six-story commercial building on the edge of the downtown area.

As soon as I got out of the elevator, the strong lights and green decoration wind came to my face, and a singer in the bar was singing a decadent slow song with a hoarse voice, repeatedly chanting: Just forget about it.

Dang Xiaowu grabbed Song Jiaqi's hand and was led all the way forward by her, she looked at everything in the bar curiously, which was completely different from what she saw on TV.

It was still early, there were not many people in the bar, the four of them walked all the way to the bar and sat down, Song Jiaqi waved to a handsome guy in the bar, the handsome guy reached out and patted her head dotingly, and said, "Introduce your friends." ”

Song Jiaqi's face was happy, her eyes narrowed with a smile, she pointed to the handsome guy and said, "Wu Yao, my boyfriend." ”

He also introduced the three of Xiao Wu to Wu Yao, he obviously knew their identities, greeted everyone in a friendly manner, and asked them what kind of wine they were drinking?

Song Jiaqi said coquettishly: "I still want a rainbow." ”

"Vodka, pure, double," says Maolinsen. He tilted his head to Xiao Wu again, "Give her the ruby." ”

The fat man said slowly, "Screw drill." ”

Wu Yao nodded, "Okay, wait a minute." ”

Song Jiaqi leaned on his elbows and looked at Wu Yao obsessively.

Xiao Wu asked Mao Linsen in a low voice: "I understand the vodka you want, what kind of wine are we all drinking?" Screw drill is also the name of the wine? ”

Mao Linsen explained to her: "It's all cocktails, Xiao Qi's rainbow should be her exclusive wine for love, right?" He asked Song Jiaqi through Xiao Wu, and Song Jiaqi gave a thumbs up: "Clever!" ”

"Your ruby wine is a Chinese-style cocktail, low alcohol content, children can drink it, you don't have a lot of alcohol, drink this is just right. The Screw Drill is a world-famous cocktail because of the private investigator Philip Philip. Marlowe's line 'screw, awl, drink, now, too, early'

It is famous, and in some places it is translated as Gimlet, which is a literal translation of gimlet. ”

Xiao Wu heard Mao Linsen speak English, and a trace of surprise flashed in her heart, but she didn't delve into it, "Why did the cocktail choose the name Gimlet?" She asked.

"This wine has only one base and sour juice, which was put in closed wooden barrels long ago, and when it is poured out, it needs to be drilled with a small screw."

Wu Yao was pleasantly surprised when he heard his explanation: "Master Mao has a deep study of cocktails!" ”

Mao Linsen smiled faintly: "I can't talk about research, I like to drink cocktails for a while, so I know a little bit." ”

Song Jiaqi said: "I didn't expect Master Mao to be not only a feng shui master, but also a cocktail expert. ”

"Okay, Master Mao, don't dislike me for being a small bar." How could Wu Yao not understand his girlfriend's thoughts, although he had never found anyone to tell his fortune since he was a child, but after starting a business, he would rather trust his feng shui fortunes.

"Consultants can't talk about it, it's okay to come for a drink often."

Wu Yao quickly mixed the wine of the three of them, and he directly gave him half a bottle of vodka that Mao Linsen wanted, and said to them: "You go to the terrace and sit and drink, the scenery is good and quiet." ”

"Yes, yes," Song Jiaqi exclaimed, "I like this terrace the most." ”

A few people took the wine to the terrace, chose the most remote table to sit down, and sure enough, the wind, drinking, and enjoying the scenery were really good.

Dang Xiaowu saw that Song Jiaqi's rainbow was layer by layer, colorful and really like a rainbow, she picked it up and tasted it carefully, so spicy that she stuck out her tongue. Song Jiaqi laughed, and Mao Linsen couldn't help but laugh.

The bar gradually became more crowded, and the music changed from the previous decadence to intense electronic music, and there was not much disturbance on the terrace, the four of them drank and chatted leisurely, Dang Xiaowu got up and went to the bathroom, and Song Jiaqi got up to go with her.

Coming out of the bathroom, the two passed by the bar, where a beautiful bartender performed fancy bartending, attracting whistles from onlookers.

"Dang Xiaowu!" A man's voice shouted.

Xiao Wu turned her head and saw a familiar face, "Jin Xuanhao? ”

Jin Xuanhao got up and beckoned to her, she and Song Jiaqi walked over, and he said, "I didn't expect you to be there, let's go together." ”

Xiao Wu pointed to the terrace outside, "There are friends coming along." ”

"Together, it's so lively."

Xiao Wu looked at the man who was with Jin Xuanhao, and Jin Xuanhao introduced: "This is my brother, Jin Xuanxiao." ”

Jin Xuanxiao seemed to have drunk a lot, he didn't pay attention to who his brother was talking to, he drank by himself, his face was facing the beautiful woman in the bar, but his eyes were a little dazed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Xiao Wu didn't know whether to agree to Jin Ershao's invitation, she looked at Song Jiaqi, and Song Jiaqi said to Jin Xuanhao: "No need, thank you." After speaking, he pulled Xiao Wu and left.

"His brother doesn't want to be too many people at all," Song Jiaqi said, "why force it." ”

"However, that is the general manager of Nova Era Department Store."

"So what?"

"Brother Lin just wants to go to his company to be a feng shui master."

“…… Such a coincidence? Then, go ask Master Mao. ”

The two returned to the terrace and told Mao Linsen about Jin Xuanhao's invitation, and he said: Let's go, go and meet.

As soon as a few people walked to the door, they heard the sound of quarrels and smashing wine bottles, and a glass flew straight to Dang Xiaowu's forehead.
