“Ahaha, I was just joking.”

The strange young androgynous person before him gave Prince Lieyang an unprecedented sense of oppression. He could only smile and explain carefully.

The white-haired young man retracted his fist and smiled, “That’s good. Whoever dares to lay their hands on my employee, I guarantee that they won’t see the Sun tomorrow.”

The white-haired young man was the owner of the Emerald bar, Glenfiddich. Lin Ge still did not know if the other party was a man or a woman.

With Glenfiddich’s flat chest, fair skin, androgynous voice, handsome face, and male attire, it was really difficult to determine his gender.

“Well said, Lin Ge. You must make the Emeralds bar’s name resound throughout the entire Aeos continent. I will support you with all my might, starting with a raise in your salary,” The shop manager turned to look at Lin Ge, his red eyes shining with excitement.

“By how much?” Lin Ge asked.

“Let’s increase it by 20% for now.”

“Thank you, boss.”

On the third day of work, without doing anything, his salary had been increased by one-fifth. No wonder so many people liked to flatter their boss.

He wasn’t flattering the other party though. He only spoke his true thoughts.

Elise wasn’t happy to see Lin Ge get a raise in his salary for no reason.

“I also want a pay raise!”

“Hmm? What did you just say?” Glenfiddich seemed to not hear her and picked his ears as if he wanted to hear what she was saying.

“Are you deaf? I’ve been working here for so many years and you’ve never given me a raise. Why did you give him a raise the moment he’s here?” Elise brazenly faced the shop manager and loudly complained.

Glenfiddich chuckled, “Alright, you don’t have to shout so loudly. I’m not deaf. If you can make a wine as good as Lin Ge’s, no, if you can reach even half of his level, I’ll double your salary. How about it?”

Elise’s face began to heat up again.

“Alright, just wait.”

“Sure, I’m looking forward to your performance. Good luck, little Elise.”

After calming down the angry employee, Glenfiddich turned around and said to Lin Ge, “I’ll have another glass of that.”

His red eyes were filled with anticipation.

“Alright, please wait a moment,” Lin Ge said with a smile.

The “that” the shop manager was referring to was the cocktail that Lin Ge had made on the day of the interview.

He turned around and skillfully prepared the shaker and a champagne saucer glass. He then took a bottle of whiskey and spicy absinthe from the wine cabinet.

Following this, he prepared some freshly squeezed lemon juice and orange juice. After adding ice into the shaker till it was 80% full, he added the freshly squeezed orange juice and lemon juice in a 1:2 ratio. The two juices combined were exactly one ounce.

Then, in the same proportion and amount, he added the spicy absinthe and whiskey. He began to shake the mixture until the surface of the shaker was frosty.

He picked up the shaker and opened the lid. Everyone’s eyes were focused on the opening of the shaker.

Amber-colored wine flowed out of the shaker and into the elegant champagne saucer glass, exuding a slight chill.

Lin Ge picked up a slice of sliced lemon. It was a standard eight-segment lemon. The eight segments were evenly fanned out. The flesh was crystal clear and full, with an alluring golden color.

He picked up the fruit knife, flicked his wrist, and cut off one of the segments neatly, leaving only seven segments of flesh. Then, he gently picked up the slice of lemon and placed it in the corner of the cup.

The golden lemon and the amber-colored wine reflected off each other. Everyone stared at the small glass, and it was as if the sea under the setting sun appeared in front of their eyes.

The alluring aroma of the wine wafted out from the small cup, causing everyone to salivate and involuntarily swallow.

Glenfiddich took a sip, and a happy expression immediately appeared on his face. He was like a girl who had been hit by waves on the beach. The waves hit his feet, making him laugh like silver bells.

The spicy taste was like the beach with the residual heat of the hot sun, stimulating his taste buds.

If one savored it carefully, one would be able to taste the complex and rich taste of the wine that left an endless aftertaste.

When he opened his eyes and returned to the real world, the glass was empty, and there was another person beside him, a red-haired woman.

Karina had been attracted by the aroma of the wine as soon as she entered the bar. Seeing the intoxicated expression on Glenfiddich’s face, she knew that Lin Ge had made another glass of top-quality wine.

“What kind of wine is this?” She asked Lin Ge.

“A Hole in One,” Lin Ge said with a smile.

“What a perverted name.”

Elise, who was beside her, said, “Those with perverted brains see everything perverted.”

Karina nodded and admitted, “That’s right, that’s right. So, little brother Lin Ge, come and do some erotic things with me. If it’s you, I’ll accept any kind of play.”

Lin Ge pretended not to hear her and explained to everyone, “On Earth, there’s a sport called golf. It’s a sport that uses a club to hit the ball into a target hole. The golf players in this sport all hope to get a good result of “hole in one”. This cocktail was given this name because it’s a favorite drink of many golf players.”

Prince Lieyang Kingdom anxiously asked Glenfiddich, “How’s the taste?”

“It’s the best, of course. I was conquered by this glass of wine that day and immediately decided that no matter what it took, I had to keep him in the shop.”

Prince Lieyang immediately turned to Lin Ge and said, “Hurry up and give me a glass.”

“I want one too,” Karina said.

“Us too,” Elise and Neelu said in unison.

It was a great blessing for a bartender for his wine to be loved by others.

Lin Ge smiled as he took out a large shaker. Under everyone’s expectant gaze, he made a glass for everyone.

After everyone drank it, their faces revealed the same satisfied expression as the shop manager.

Karina couldn’t help but tease Elise when she saw the look of enjoyment on Elise’s face, “Don’t you hate little brother Lin Ge? Why are you drinking so happily? You really are a little slut who doesn’t mean what she says.”

“You pervert, can you stop spoiling the mood? Me hating him but liking his wine are two different things. What’s more, I’m preparing to defeat him. Is there a problem?”

Lin Ge could only smile helplessly at the two’s argument. He turned around and saw the eager expression on Lanya’s face. He asked, “Do you want some too?”

Seeing the expressions on everyone’s faces after drinking, Lanya, of course, wanted to try it too.

“Can I?”

Lin Ge took out a champagne saucer glass and poured some wine into it, filling only the bottom. He then handed it to the expectant Lanya.

“Yes, but only a little.”

Lanya nodded excitedly. She took the glass and took a sip. Her fair face immediately blushed.

“Did this little girl spend the night at your place last night?” Karina suddenly abandoned her bickering opponent and turned to ask Lin Ge.

Lin Ge didn’t answer, so Elise answered for him, “Yeah. Look at how weak she is. She must have had a rough time last night.

“How cunning. He closed the door too quickly yesterday and I couldn’t catch up. I must follow him to his house today.”
