Ke Xue Bartender

Chapter 101 Dark Storm
Gin nodded to Lin Ye and sat to the left of Miyano Akemi.

Vodka sat to the left of Gin.

Lin Ye noticed that after Gin sat down, Miss Mingmei showed a hint of nervousness on her face, but it quickly disappeared.

"Is this the new bartender?"

Gin ignored Miyano Akemi who was sitting next to him, but looked at Amuro Toru with a sarcastic smile on his lips.

Vodka also glared at Amuro Toru through his sunglasses.

Amuro Toru smiled.

"My name is Toru Amuro. I'm currently just Mr. Lin's assistant, not a formal bartender."

"Assistant, hehe." Gin chuckled.

[That maverick Bourbon actually went to a street bar to be an assistant to a young man younger than himself? What is his purpose? ]

“I hope you can become an excellent bartender soon.”

"Thank you."

[Hmph, Gin, one day, I will handcuff you myself.]

Lin Ye stood aside.

"As expected, they pretend not to know me in front of me."

And from their thoughts, it can be inferred that their relationship in the organization is not very good.

Toru Amuro is probably the type who likes to be alone.

It's no wonder. After all, his real identity is an undercover agent. If he gets too close to anyone, he might reveal his flaws.

Handcuffs? Does this mean Toru Amuro is from the police?

Lin Ye secretly took note of this information and a smile appeared on his face.

"What would you like to drink today?"

"Dark Storm." Gin gave a cold smile.

"By the way, give the lady next to me a drink as well."

Lin Ye looked at Miyano Akemi, asking for her opinion with his eyes.

Miyano Akemi nodded slightly, the tension in her expression had disappeared and her eyes were firm.

"Okay, two cups of Dark Storm."

Dark 'N' Stormy.
A very simple cocktail to make, it only requires dark rum and ginger beer (or ginger ale), simple and delicious.

The only restrictions are on the brands of rum and ginger beer that can be used.

The cocktail has been patented by a rum distillery called Gosling's.

The recipe is limited, and the standard Dark Stormy can only use Black Seal rum produced by Gosling's and Stormy ginger beer.

However, if you like a different taste, there is no problem in changing to another brand of dark rum.

After all, everyone has different taste preferences, and Commander Gao will not fine you even if you don’t follow the standard recipe.

"Where is this guest?" Although he had already guessed the result, Lin Ye still asked Vodka.

Vodka deadpanned.

"A glass of ice water."

【…】

Lin Ye held back his smile and poured a glass of ice water for the vodka first, then found Black Seal rum, Stormy ginger beer, and a bottle of ginger ale from the wine cabinet.

Prepare two highball glasses, add ice cubes, then pour in Stormy Ginger Beer, then add Black Seal Rum, the ratio of the two is 2:1, and then stir with a bar spoon.

This is a standard dark storm, made with gin.

"Please enjoy." Lin Ye pushed the wine glass in front of Gin.

Then start making the second cup.

Ice cubes, Black Seal rum, ginger ale, Lin Ye also added honey and lemon juice to make the taste softer and more refreshing, suitable for ladies to drink, and finally gently put a slice of lemon on it.

This cup is Miss Mingmei's special one.

"Ms. Yamei, please." Seeing the second cup of Black Storm prepared by Lin Ye, Gin's mouth corners slightly raised.

[What a considerate guy. Will this woman fall in love with him? ]

Picking up the wine glass in front of me, the dark wine is like the clouds before a storm on the sea.

It was a dark storm that brought death and danger.

After taking a sip, Gin's spirits lifted, just like a sailor on the deck seeing a mermaid under the moon, he looked at Lin Ye with admiration.

[The rich caramel aroma of Black Seal, with a hint of sweetness in its spiciness, paired with the vibrant bubbles of Storm Ginger Beer, seems to give people endless power]

His wine never disappoints me.

Seeing Gin's admiring eyes, Toru Amuro, who was standing next to Lin Ye, almost suspected that he had seen it wrong.

[This guy actually has that kind of look in his eyes? ]

In Toru Amuro's impression, Gin has always been a cold-blooded executioner, cruelly treating traitors in the organization.

His temperament is like a murderous knife, and his sharp eyes are the sharp tip of the knife.

But at this moment, there was a look of admiration in those cold eyes.

[This is incredible. I think I should try the manager’s cocktails myself.]

Lin Ye smiled and thought confidently:
"Toru, just one sip and you'll fall in love with my cocktails just like Mr. Gin."

Miyano Akemi also picked up the wine glass, put the rim of the glass against her moist and shiny lips, and the dark wine flowed over her rosy lips.

The smooth and light taste seems to take her to the beach at night, with the smell of vanilla and honey in the sea breeze.

Putting down the wine glass, her eyes became calmer and more composed, as if she had gained some kind of spiritual strength from the wine.

"It's very delicious, thank you."

Lin Ye introduced her with a smile:
“Dark and Stormy, this cocktail originated from the British Navy, who sourced rum from the Gosling family in Bermuda and distributed it to the crew as naval rations.

“At the time, Bermuda also started producing ginger beer, and the bored sailors found that the combination of these two things could make them high, so this drinking method quickly spread.

“As for the name Dark Storm, it is because the sailors thought the color of this mixed wine was very similar to the clouds before a storm at sea.

"The voyage at sea is full of misery. This is the drink the crew uses to cheer themselves up. With it, they have the courage to face even the dark storm."

"So I think this glass of wine symbolizes the courage to overcome difficulties."

Lin Ye looked at Miyano Akemi with a smile.

"courage?"

Seeing the smile on Lin Ye's face and listening to him talking, Miyano Akemi felt very reassured.

An important reason why she chose this place as the negotiation location was that it made her feel at ease.

If it were here, she would be more confident facing Gin.

This devilish man.

Now it seems that my choice was correct.

Lin Ye's cocktails and words gave her spiritual strength.

And she was surprised to find that after Gin came to this store, his devilish and cold aura was restrained a lot.

Judging from the tone Lin Ye used when entertaining the two people, it seemed that this was not their first time to come to this store.

[Could it be that Gin... also likes this shop? ]

Miyano Akemi looked at Lin Ye with even more surprise.

[Mr. Lin Ye’s skills are truly amazing, as he can even conquer a demon like Gin]

"Does Miss Yamei know this gentleman?" Lin Ye asked.

"Yes, there is a business cooperation." Miyano Akemi said calmly, "I asked him to come here to discuss the details of the cooperation."

Hearing what Miyano Akemi said, Gin raised the corners of his mouth and put down his glass.

"Okay, it's time to get down to business."

"Ms. Hirota, what is the important thing you are talking about?"
