Chapter 18: The Bartender (part 3 of 4)

What do you use to welcome guests from afar?

Perhaps at this point, both the Chinese and the Britannes in this world have the same choice.

A sumptuous meal in the student union's office.

Liu Mengchao smiled slightly and modestly sat on Mi Lei's right hand. The student council president with blond shawl hair seemed to be trying to prove that he really welcomed Liu Mengchao from the bottom of his heart, and the smile never left her cheeks from the moment Liu Mengchao sat down.

Liu Mengchao didn't say much, after all, no matter who was eating, it would not be a pleasant thing to be stared at from beginning to end.

Especially this person is still Lelouch.

Liu Mengchao even had the illusion that Lelouxiu would jump on the table desperately and cast Geass directly on himself. Of course, delusions are always delusions.

"To friends who have come from afar!"

Mirei stood up with her glass, and the wine swayed gently in the glass, with a look of intoxication.

"Respect......fully," Liu Mengchao also stood up at this time, raised his wine glass with a smile on his face and said, "Emperor Britalia!" ”

Liu Mengchao's words fell on Mi Lei's ears, and the beautiful student council president smiled slightly, nodded at Liu Mengchao, and said, "Respect for the friendship between us......

"The earth is long!"

This is Liu Mengchao's answer.

As soon as the words fell, Liu Mengchao's wine glass and Mi Lei's wine glass touched lightly.

There was a small ding, like a signal to open the ring and drink, and at this moment, whether it was the silent and cold Lu Luxiu, or Zhang Ning, who kept talking, began to eat.

It's just that Lelouch's movements are more elegant, and the knife and fork in his hands are like the two batons of the orchestra conductor. And the knife and fork in Zhang Ning's hand are more like the three-edged military thorns equipped by the People's Liberation Army. No matter how thick the beef is, it will be pierced by him with a single knife.

Generally speaking. The banquet is also a place for conversation. But at the moment, it is a little cold. Zhang Ning didn't feel that way. He was still immersed in eating.

And Liu Mengchao didn't have such feelings. Not only does he have to deal with Mi Lei, who is next to him who frequently shows favor to him, but he also has to consider every word of the next task in his mind, which is also not a simple job for Liu Mengchao.

But silence is often more difficult than pain.

Among the remaining members of the student council, Lelouch ate in silence. From time to time, his gaze swept over Liu Mengchao and Zhang Ning's faces. He already had some preliminary views on these two people.

Liu Mengchao seems to be a step higher in psychology than Zhang Ning, but he is also more cunning. But that Zhang Ning, if he really never lied as he had shown himself, he would be the best person to ask about Nanali's eyes.

Lelouch thought to himself. While silently fiddling with the knife and fork in front of him.

Suddenly, a strange noise rang out in the quiet student union office. The four legs of the chair make a toothache noise on the ground.

Everyone subconsciously stopped their movements and turned their eyes in the direction of the noise.

A somewhat apologetic smile appeared on the man's face.

"I'm sorry, I really didn't expect this chair to be so heavy."

Yuxi's hair is a little long for a boy, but his pale face under the light makes his appearance look good.

"What's wrong?" It was only at this time that Liu Mengchao's question was belated.

"Well, I'm a bartender." Yu Xi bowed slightly to the people present and said with a smile, "We Chinese have always paid attention to courtesy. Please let me be a bartender. Mix a glass of wine for you in return for today's sumptuous dinner. ”

said. This Yuxi didn't wait for someone else's reply, so he stood up on his own and ran to the edge of the bar. He stood there for a moment, sighing slightly, as if from the lack of wine at the bar. But when he turned around, the smile on his face became enthusiastic again.

The appearance is still the same.,The costume is still the uniform of Ashford School Park that he just changed.,Even the smile on his face is still a slightly apologetic smile when he stands up.。

It's just that......

No matter who it is, such a thought can't help but pop up in my heart at this moment. This man stood behind the bar, and his whole person's momentum was different.

It's not the so-called aggressive, but more easy-going and gentle than most people think.

The air fell silent for a moment, and after a long while, Yuxi slowly opened his mouth.

"The reason why the door of the bar is heavy is because it means to hide from the mob. Once you enter the bar, you can forget about the outside world, and you will also forget about your status and age, and become your true self. It's all because of that heavy door. As he spoke, he smiled slightly, "Although this is not a bar, but with this plank and gentleness, I think anyone will be a good bartender." ”

Plank...... And gentleness......

Listening to Yuxi's words, Lu Luxiu subconsciously frowned and glanced at Liu Mengchao.

Sure enough, it is not easy to follow Liu Mengchao's side. The wooden block on the bar is bar, and gentleness is tender. Together, these two words are exactly the bartender's word, Bartender!

Lelouxiu's brain was still spinning at high speed, and Yuxi's performance slowly began.

I saw Yuxi smile slightly, then took a cocktail-specific goblet, then looked around the bar and took a bottle.

There was a soft bang, and the red wine flowed down the mouth of the bottle and into the glass. It was about to pass the bottom of the cup when Yuxi stopped.

It was only then that Liu Mengchao could see the name of the bottle of wine he had just taken.

Vermouth, a white wine with absinthe juice as an additive in Liu Mengchao's memory. Immediately after that, the name of the wine that Yuxi took was confirmed by Liu Mengchao.

The color of that bottle of wine was golden, and the name Liu Mengchao was, if I remember correctly, Chartreuse, a French chatter.

The golden French Charter glass, feathered into the stream, floated softly on the red vermouth, and from a distance looked like two soft and lustrous gemstones, precipitating at the bottom of the glass.

Yu Xi sighed softly and picked up another bottle of wine again, and the almost transparent golden dry wine was slowly poured on top by Yu Xi.

A cocktail is now in the light, layered in three layers.

At the bottom layer is a ruby, at the top is a topaz, and at the top is a white diamond. Yuxi's movements paused for a moment, as if he was also admiring his masterpiece.

After a few moments, Yuxi poured the shaped "jewel" into a cocktail filled with ice cubes and stirred it gently. Almost in the blink of an eye, the originally layered gem wine has changed color at this moment.

"The same amber color as C.C.'s eyes." Liu Mengchao read softly in his heart.

"20ml dry gin, 20ml French chatter, 20ml Vermouth plus 3 drops of orange bitters. This cup is dedicated to you, President Millet. Yuxi bowed slightly and said to Mi Lei, who was a little surprised, "The name of the wine is Amber Dream. Thank you for your hospitality today. ”

With that, Yuxi turned around again and picked up another cocktail glass. Apparently, he also wanted to make a cocktail as a thank you for tonight's dinner.

I don't know when Lu Dao went, the corners of Liu Mengchao's mouth unconsciously floated a smile.

He was suddenly curious about what kind of wine the bartender would make for himself.
