Chapter 5 Cream Wine

Not long after, curly glasses really visited SOLIS again.He stood at the door and lingered for a long time, but Hua Yunche recognized his familiar figure.

Xue Mingsui winked at him, and Hua Yunche walked out quickly.

"Hi!" Hua Yunche greeted, "We meet again, since we're here, why don't you come in and sit?"

Curly glasses originally wanted to leave, but saw that the person had already come out, so he had no choice but to follow in.

As soon as he entered the cafe, Xue Mingsui felt a burst of surprise. His appearance today was cleaner than before, and even a lot more delicate - his unkempt hair was taken care of, although it was still naturally fluffy, it looked very smooth ; The puffy dark circles under the eyes faded, the lenses were cleaned and polished; changed into clean clothes, and did not wear flip-flops again.

Only then did he realize that he was a little hunchbacked, his eyes were typical dead fish eyes, and his face was sickly pale.

Xue Mingsui suddenly had a strange feeling—this person might have a good figure, and if he dressed up carefully, he might be amazing.

But he quickly dispelled this terrible idea.

Seeing Xue Mingsui, the curly-haired glasses hesitated to speak.Yuanjia Road is narrow, but that cup of Irish coffee is well blended...

Hua Yunche understood: "Irish coffee?"

"Yeah." He nodded, settled the bill, and sank into the shell and crystal bead curtain like last time.

Xue Mingsui evoked a long-awaited smile.

Use your eyes to indicate to others that there is a good show to watch.

Instantly grab utensils, spare wine and coffee, brew, toast, blend, whip, pour.The brewing process this time is the same as last time, but more proficient, and the coffee is ready in just 10 minutes.

Xue Mingxi straightened his sleeves and brought him the prepared coffee himself.

"Please enjoy."

He handed it over and observed his expression.

On the table with curly hair glasses, there are still scattered manuscript papers.He glanced sideways at Xue Mingsui, then pinched the cup with his thumb and index finger, and took a sip.

After a while, his expression changed subtly.

Soft bitterness, sweetness and sourness - the familiar flavor of Blue Mountain coffee is in your mouth.However, immediately afterward, amidst the mellowness of the wine, there was a vague sense of peacekeeping—a hint of sourness and cloying sweetness was mixed in it!

The curly glasses put down the coffee cup with a bang, with a sullen expression on his face, "This is not the wine from last time."

"The tongue is very good."

His face was filled with disdain and annoyance, "I just found out today that Irish whiskey can be mixed with cream. The owner of this coffee shop, are you ruining Irish coffee?"

"Oh? Sir, you really have a unique opinion. Why didn't I know that I mixed cream in the wine? Because I ran out of JAMESON two days ago and couldn't find a suitable base wine, so I changed to BAILEYS."

The curly glasses froze for a moment, then blushed instantly.

"Oh, I just found out that cream and whiskey are not impossible to combine." Xue Mingsui put his pockets in his pocket and approached his face with a sly smile, "This gentleman has the smell of a butter boy. Meaning? I don’t know how you are doing in bed.”

Suddenly there was an ambiguous atmosphere in the air.

Curly glasses blushed, "Pervert! Obscene! Shameless!"

He immediately packed up the sketches and stood up abruptly.

"Wait," Xue Mingsui grabbed his wrist, "Since the guest ordered this cup of Irish coffee, wouldn't I just take it away and throw it away as soon as you leave? Isn't that too wasteful?"

"What do you want?"

The curly-haired glasses struggled, but found that the man's strength was amazing, and he couldn't move at all.He gritted his teeth.

"Compete with me?" Xue Mingsui showed a playful smile, "Coffee making. If you win, I will let you go. If you lose, just drink up this cup of coffee before leaving. Do you dare to compare?"

"..."

The details of coffee come to mind. A cup of coffee can reflect a barista's skills and cultivation. His care, patience and agility are the embodiment of the taste in a cup of coffee.That cup of Irish coffee is his exquisite technique, but he has not yet perfected it.

"...Don't dare." Curly glasses finally said.He took the coffee cup and drank it down.

Xue Mingsui watched him frown tightly with a suppressed smile, as if he could hardly bear the sweet taste, and finally finished it reluctantly.

"Thank you for the hospitality, goodbye!"

Covering his mouth with curly glasses, he fled the cafe in a panic.

The person behind the leaky wall burst out laughing, "Why is the store manager so vile?"

"Oh." Xue Mingsui looked out the window.

"I like him quite a bit, so I probably won't come like this. I thought you guys would really compete, but I didn't expect him to take the initiative to admit defeat."

Xue Mingsui was a little unhappy.The look of curly glasses is not so simple.He seemed to be able to do a job with ease, but for some reason he gave up voluntarily, which was the exact opposite of his soft appearance.I don't know if the real person doesn't show his face, or it's just that?

Suddenly thinking of that irritated and ashamed expression, Xue Mingsui still had a dark feeling in his heart.

"By the way, store manager," Hua Yunche said, "Do you know that there is a new cafe in Zhaixing Alley recently? It is currently being renovated."

"Huh? I've heard of it—it seems to be opened by the son of the boss of a large company. It has a lot of history."

"Yes, it is said that he is the second son of the An family, named An Qianjing."

"An Qianjing?"

An Qianjing is the second son of his father, the CEO of An's Group. His father has a certain reputation in the country, and he is present in the political and business circles.However, as the second son of the An family, it is said that he is unruly and proud, he does not like restraint, and has no interest in inheriting the family business.

Competition among peers, Zhaixing Lane is afraid to rise.Xue Mingsui secretly said.

"It seems that they are here to grab business. We have family background, background, and geographical advantages. We can't compare with them. It will be tricky after the official opening of the store. What should the store manager do?"

Xue Mingsui frowned, "Tsk, what to do, what to do. Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover up."

Life went on as usual according to Xue Mingsui's statement.

SOLIS bought new equipment, and the two of them developed their hobbies, occasionally writing, listening to music, Hua Yunche's SLR was also brought over, and they took some small works from time to time and posted them on social networking sites.

The facade of Zhaixing Lane is really being refurbished constantly. Buyers come and go, some have made exquisite pastries, some have made creative gadgets, some are extraordinarily lively, and some are extraordinarily deserted, "thinking trends" It's still the same as before, occasionally coming to exchange a few words and chat for a while.

Sitting on the high chair in front of the bar, Xiaosi said, "I don't know what kind of coffee is good in your shop, the manager recommends one!"

Xue Mingsui was about to talk about Irish coffee, but he turned his head and pondered, "Try caramel macchiato, girls like it."

"Haha, I'm different from ordinary girls."

"How do you say that?"

"I like bitter coffee, and I also like straightforward temperament."

Xue Mingsui made her a cup of Americano coffee.

Hua Yunche asked, "How is the business of "Ideology" recently? "

"Hey, that's it. Fun is quite fun. The key is to see what you want, whether to live the life you dream of, or to make money and be happy."

Soon, the renovation of the cafe built by An Qianjing was completed, and the name of the cafe was "Fengyu".As Hua Yunche said, Feiyu has sufficient capital, not only sufficient manpower, but also a larger store.Under the name of "fashion coffee", they are loyal to making innovative coffee, which is different from traditional coffee.

After some publicity, the popularity soared.Hua Yunche handed over the turnover statistics of SOLIS this week, compared with last week, it dropped by several percentages obviously.Compared with the past, it can be called deserted.

The threat posed by the Brown Language cannot be underestimated.

Xue Mingsui decided to pretend to be an ordinary guest to investigate first.

In the deep winter, the south is wet and cold, and there are occasional light rains, which is a good time to drink coffee.Coffee language sells coffee with an exclusive style, and the order column is full of strange coffee names, such as fantasy, temptation, holiday and Togetsu Bridge, which are very attractive.A modern trend is coming, which makes people feel that this is indeed an innovation of coffee, which is deeply loved by the public.

Back in the store, Xue Mingsui had some thoughts.An Qianjing's method adds value to the coffee itself.But the quality of the coffee itself will determine whether the coffee language can flourish in the future.

Could it be that the owner is also a brilliant barista?

Just as he was thinking, the white wind chime at the door rang, and a person walked in.

The author has something to say:

BAILEYS: Baileys liqueur, brewed through the fusion of Irish cream, Irish whiskey and some other elements, so that the strong alcoholic beverage is infused with the taste of fresh cream, so it is also called cream wine
