"Would you like to stay here for a bit? Would you like a drink?"
Xu Lin stepped aside to let the young lady into the house, without mentioning what had just happened, and simply asked her in a low voice.
It was as if nothing had happened before; she was simply entertaining Xu Youyue, who had suddenly come to her door that night.
Do you have any wine here?
The young lady asked curiously.
"I found it in the mini-fridge in the bedroom this afternoon. The guesthouse owner's service is quite thoughtful www"
Xu Lin took out a bottle of wine from the refrigerator, along with several bottles of beverages, and two glasses to start mixing.
"Glanvita, it's alright, I can drink it."
Xu Lin wasn't a big drinker, but he used to be a man with a decent alcohol tolerance, and with his father being a heavy drinker, he had some knowledge of alcohol from a young age.
"You can do this too?"
Sitting in the chair, Xu Youyue watched with some surprise as the bottles of drinks gradually mixed in Xu Lin's hands into a glass of mixed liquid that exuded the aroma of wine and fruit juice. She was quite curious.
"It's just a simple cocktail recipe, something I learned from my dad."
Xu Lin, however, felt a sense of unbearable recollection of the past, shook his head, and glossed over it without saying more.
"Come on, young lady, would you like to have a taste?"
Xu Lin handed the wine glass to Xu Youyue, picked up a glass for himself, and stood there gracefully with a smile on his lips, bathed in the beautiful moonlight by the sea, looking like a painting.
"Hmm, no ice?"
The young lady raised her glass and clinked it against hers, then asked a question.
"My dear lady, please don't expect so much from the basic conditions here, okay? This isn't a bar."
Xu Lin chuckled and teased her, then swirled the glass, watching the wine shimmer slightly in the moonlight, before tilting his head back and downing it in one gulp.
"Tch~ You didn't treat me well."
The young lady spoke capriciously, but also quite generously downed the drink in her glass.
The taste is actually pretty good?
The young lady was a little surprised.
"There's not much alcohol in it, is there?"
Xu Lin asked smugly, his hands never stopping as he slowly mixed another cup of something different from the first.
There's not much fruit juice here, so I can only use Sprite as the main ingredient, but fortunately there's still lemon juice, so I should be able to make that drink.
"Hmm, you did it on purpose?"
Xu Youyue watched as Xu Lin's fair hands magically produced two more cocktails, each slightly different from the previous ones, and asked softly.
"Don't you dislike the taste of alcohol? I think you might like this cocktail a little."
"So you still remember..."
The young lady muttered to herself, sniffed the wine in her hand, and seemed a little happy.
She actually remembers something that happened so long ago.
very nice.
"I have a good memory~"
That same phrase again.
Xu Youyue thought to herself that she really wanted to complain about her, but she just couldn't bring herself to smile.
"You have a good memory, but you haven't talked to me much today?"
But she still couldn't resist making a sarcastic remark, wanting to gain the upper hand at the party, even if only for a moment.
"Oh?"
Xu Lin smiled slightly.
"But the topic of conversation I have with everyone is you."
Then, with one blow, he sank the young lady.
Actually, Xu Lin really doesn't know how to flirt.
She will only tell the truth.
But at times like these, only the truth is truly moving.
Chapter 75, Section 75: The Drunken Young Lady is Super Cute
"Hmm..."
Xu Youyue's face was very red.
She didn't know why Xu Lin became so witty and charming after turning into a girl, whereas before he only knew how to say corny pickup lines!
"Oh my, Miss, you're blushing!"
Xu Lin was really naughty, still teasing and asking questions at this moment, making the young lady's face turn even redder.
"It's because he drank alcohol!"
Xu Youyue slammed her hand on the table and retorted fiercely.
Xu Lin was startled. He almost dropped the wine bottle in his hand and dropped it on the ground.
"Don't be so alarmed. No wonder you always self-destruct."
"I didn't expose myself, I was just telling the truth, okay?"
"Yes, yes, my lady, come on, cheers."
Xu Lin didn't want to argue with the young lady about this, because experience told him that continuing to argue would never end well, and the most likely result would be that he would get beaten up and be unable to fight back.
"Just like coaxing a child."
Xu Youyue pouted and muttered something under her breath, but she didn't take it too seriously and clinked glasses with Xu Lin.
This drink tastes wonderful, like Sprite, but with an added hint of alcohol and a refreshing quality. It's not as sweet as a soft drink, nor as pungent as vodka; everything is just right.
What's the name of this wine?
The young lady asked curiously.
"Glanwitt?"
"No, I meant the drink you made."
"This..."
Xu Lin chuckled softly.
"This is a drink I had at a small bar near my home, called Ice City."
"Oh? That's a nice name~ I didn't know you liked going to bars, weren't you a shut-in?"
The young lady was a little drunk. After two glasses of wine, although she didn't smell of alcohol, it was still wine.
She can't drink much alcohol.
"Even shut-ins have social lives, lol. And most of the cocktail names sound really good. You won't know what they taste like until you actually order one."
"So, who did you go to the bar with?"
Xu Youyue keenly sensed something was wrong. She pretended to be nonchalant and chatted casually, but her eyes were fixed on Xu Lin.
"A farewell party with a few friends from high school after graduation."
Xu Lin was also clever; he didn't mention that there were several other girls who had made the young lady jealous unnecessarily, and only talked about the men.
But in her eyes, it really was just drinking with her buddies. Although she didn't know why they, who usually preferred street food stalls, suddenly wanted to go to a quiet bar, she figured they were probably planning to confess to one of the girls before they parted ways.
The atmosphere of a quiet bar is perfect.
If you get into a good mood after drinking, go on stage and sing a love song for the girl you like. Unless your circumstances are absolutely terrible, you're unlikely to be rejected.
"Oh, okay? Want to go together next time? I'd love to give it a try."
"You? I'll just arrange it for you at home. If we really have to go, it can't just be the two of us."
Xu Lin was fairly aware of his and the young lady's looks. After all, even in a quiet bar, you're bound to run into drunkards, and getting harassed is a mood killer.
"Who else would you like to bring along?"
Xu Youyue's voice was soft and sweet when she was drunk, without a trace of threat, like a spoiled little kitten.
"Li Huiyan".
Xu Lin replied without hesitation, but just as the young lady's face showed a hint of anger, he added another sentence.
"Because with her fighting skills, we don't have to worry about running into people who try to pick her up."
Even if he were to transform into a girl, Xu Lin would definitely not be able to accept being approached by men, so he wouldn't really want to go to places like bars.
Although the people in quiet bars are generally well-mannered, and everyone comes to drink and listen to music, no one wants to cause trouble, but you never know when a few bad apples might appear.
If you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet; if you walk on the dark road too often, you're bound to run into ghosts. With so many people in China, do you really think we've achieved universal harmony without a few idiots?
Xu Lin himself would be fine with it, but he absolutely did not want the girl in front of him to be in danger for no reason.
"Hahahaha, if Sister Yan heard you say that, you'd be the first one she'd deal with."
The young lady laughed wildly, downed another cup, and the intoxication spread to her eyes. In her hazy state, she suddenly felt a sense of pleasure and peace.
She thought she might be enjoying the feeling of drinking in the evening.
"You won't tell on me, right?"
Xu Lin shrugged and said indifferently.
"No! I'll go back and tell Sister Yan that Xu Lin was badmouthing you behind your back!"
