After a while, Zhu Bufan realized that it had been a long time, but no one had brought him a drink.

Could it be that they were worried he couldn't afford the drink?

But obviously, that wasn't the case; the drink only cost a little more than one hundred yuan and wouldn't be considered expensive. It must be because they were afraid that he would drink too much and make a scene in the bar.

"Damn, can't even enjoy a drink..."

Zhu Bufan cursed bitterly with a wry smile, somewhat dissatisfied with the experience.

Just as Zhu Bufan looked up, he saw that the person behind the bar had changed.

Standing at the bar was a woman with beautiful flowing hair, tied up slightly to look very neat and spirited.

Zhu Bufan's eyes brightened, and he gave a slight smile to the woman inside, saying, "Excuse me… beautiful lady, another bottle of Shafeite, please!"

This woman was dressed very stylishly and trendy, wearing denim clothing from head to toe. Her lips were painted a vivid red making her appear very tender and attractive.

Beneath her earlobes dangled a dazzling earring.

Though the woman in front of him dressed wildly and with personality, Zhu Bufan was certain that she hadn't been touched by anyone.

He could tell just by the way she walked.

There's a saying that posture reveals a lot, and this woman's legs not only appeared very tight, but there was also a subtle tension in a certain area, which clearly showed she was still a virgin.

This woman seemed to be a bartender, her dressing exceptionally quirky, and those clear eyes with a hint of haziness looked extremely charming and alluring as if they could captivate souls.

Most of the male customers coming to the Tianlai Bar liked her a lot.

Unfortunately, she had no interest in any of the men here and never gave other men another glance.

Under the flickering lights, the woman's slender fingers hooked slightly, and the cocktail shaker flipped impressively in the air.

The entire motion was done in one go, simple and yet dashing, attracting cheers and applause from the customers around.

"Handsome guy… try this… I mixed it myself, it tastes good!"

The quirky woman gave Zhu Bufan a flirtatious smile, flicking her finger slightly, and instantly, the glass slid accurately and landed right in front of Zhu Bufan.

"Oh?"

Zhu Bufan grabbed the glass with one hand, curiously examining the drink's color, he smiled and said, "Beautiful lady… this glass doesn't seem to be the drink I ordered!"

"Oh?"

The woman looked at Zhu Bufan with a bit of surprise, and asked curiously, "How do you know that?"

Zhu Bufan smiled calmly, pointed at the glass, and explained, "First, this glass of drink is very blue. Although the lights here are flickering, Shafeite is different from other drinks; under any light, it remains white... and this glass has a slight sweet taste... so it's not what I wanted!"

"As for what I want... it's sour, sweet, bitter, and spicy, rich in both color and flavor…"

Zhu Bufan put down the glass, articulately explained.

"Pfft…"

Seeing Zhu Bufan being so serious, the woman couldn't help but burst out laughing, her body shaking charmingly. Then, she gave Zhu Bufan a thumbs up and admired, "You are really amazing… To make it look more similar, I specially added some color changing agents, but you still saw through it!"

"I'm just a person who likes to drink…"

Zhu Bufan said with a gentle smile.

"I actually intentionally switched your drink just now..."

The woman suddenly shifted the topic, her captivating eyes making her appear all the more enchanting.

"Oh?"

Zhu Bufan was slightly stunned, and asked, "Then tell me... your reason for doing this?"

Seeing that Zhu Bufan was not angry, the woman couldn't help but flash a smile and explained, "The reason is very simple... Just now, I saw that you, handsome, had already drunk two bottles of Shafeite... This type of liquor is extremely strong, very harmful to the body... I know, strong drinks are better for drowning sorrows..."

"But! The stronger the alcohol, it often just makes one more harmful to oneself... adding sorrow upon sorrow... It's so not worth it!"

Seeing that Zhu Bufan still did not intend to interrupt her, the woman couldn't help but smile and said, "The drink I mixed for you just now, although, cannot compare to the potency of Shafeite... but this drink's flavor is very pure and sweet... You might as well take a few sips... perhaps, you will fall in love with this taste."

"It seems like you understand me quite well..."

Zhu Bufan seemed to be intrigued as he slightly smiled, then picked up the glass and gently swayed it.

"I wouldn't say I understand your thoughts... but, sir, I see that your face seems overly troubled... Although strong liquor solves woes, drinking too much of it often leads to neglecting many things... and losing a lot..."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Zhu Bufan looked at her with a slight smile but shook his head and said, "Beauty... I think you're overthinking it. I came here just to drink and pass the time! It's not as profound as you imagine..."

"Hehe..."

Xiao Fei'er chuckled, saying, "Sir... actually, you don't need to contradict me... Everyone here has their own concerns... it's just that, your worries are different from others... that's why I might have said a bit more!"

"I think you really misunderstood!"

Zhu Bufan shook his head and said, "Actually, I'm not as melancholic as you think, I simply enjoy drinking..."

After saying that, Zhu Bufan directly downed the drink in his glass.

He then pulled out a cigarette, placed it in his mouth, and took a deep draw.

Seeing Zhu Bufan's eyes, which seemed deep and vast like the starry sky, Xiao Fei'er was somewhat unable to fathom him.

A man clearly with a story, yet acting as if nothing mattered, at this moment, Xiao Fei'er's curiosity was even stronger.

What puzzled Xiao Fei'er most was that despite Zhu Bufan having drunk such strong alcohol, he looked very calm.

For ordinary people, just one sip would have knocked them straight to the ground.

This fact intensified Xiao Fei'er's interest.

Although Xiao Fei'er was not very old, she is most familiar with the various types of men in the bar.

Most who come to a bar are on the hunt, but men like Zhu Bufan, who just enjoy drinking and have such profound eyes, are extremely rare.

Moreover, if it were any other man, they would be in a rush to strike up a conversation with her. However, the man in front of her seemed to have absolutely no interest in her at all.

This was quite a blow to Xiao Fei'er.

You see, in the bar, Xiao Fei'er was like a star amidst the moon, with countless admirers. Yet, in front of Zhu Bufan, she seemed as if coated in mundane dust, not catching Zhu Bufan's eye at all.

How was he different from other men?

At this moment, Xiao Fei'er's interest and curiosity grew even more.

Taking another look at Zhu Bufan, Xiao Fei'er noted that his clothing was quite ordinary, but those eyes of Zhu Bufan's were profoundly deep. His sculpted face held a unique expression, making Xiao Fei'er unable to resist taking several more glances.
