Ke Xue Bartender

Chapter 35 At that time, I was still very thin
"Does the sir know Miss Yoko?" Lin Ye's gentle voice, like a drizzle, quietly sprinkled into Fujie Akiyoshi's heart.

"More than just knowing each other, we used to be lovers." Fujie Akiyoshi smiled bitterly, as if he didn't expect Lin Ye to believe it.

"How did you break up later?"

"Do you believe what I say?" Fujie Akiyoshi raised his head, a little surprised.

He thought Lin Ye would think he was a drunkard talking nonsense.

Lin Ye nodded and said, "I know you are speaking from the heart. If possible, I would be happy to be your audience."

Fujie Akiyoshi lowered his head and remained silent for a moment.

"Pour me another glass of Loya, with ice this time."

Adding ice cubes to Loya has a unique flavor, with the fruity aroma of apricot mixed with the scent of vanilla, caramel, and black honey, and the aroma of the barrel becomes more obvious. The sweetness of the taste becomes weaker, and the sour and bitter taste becomes stronger.

Putting down the wine glass, Akiyoshi Fujie stared at the clear ice cubes in the glass, lost in thought.

"My name is Fujie Akiyoshi, and Yoko and I were classmates at Konan High School," Fujie Akiyoshi suddenly spoke in a deep voice, "That summer, Yoko and I fell in love."

Lin Ye listened quietly.

Attracted by this, Aragaki Kaho looked at the fat man in surprise.

[No way, what on earth does Miss Yoko like about him? ]

"At that time, I was still very thin and was considered a celebrity on campus." Fujie Akiyoshi lowered his head, looked at his now big belly, and laughed at himself.

"At that time, Yoko was not as radiant as she is now. She was still an ordinary girl, no, she should be called a hidden treasure. I am lucky to have discovered her loveliness."

Fujie Akiyoshi took another sip of his wine.

The strong liquor makes my throat hurt.

"It was a pure and beautiful love affair, and I will never forget those memories. But at the time, I didn't realize how happy I was."

Fujie Akiyoshi's eyes were filled with tears and regret.

"When that guy found me and asked me to break up with Yoko, I was furious. I have a strong sense of self-esteem, so I broke up with Yoko in a rage."

Lin Ye remained silent, but Aragaki Kaho couldn't help it.

"No way, you broke up with Miss Yoko so easily? I don't think you love her at all." Aragaki Kaho said angrily.

"You're right. When I knew Yoko wanted to debut as an idol, I only cared about my own feelings. I couldn't stand my girlfriend being judged by other men on the screen. Yoko was hesitant because of my feelings, but at that time, I was only thinking about myself..." Fujie Akiyoshi murmured.

"I see you're the same now." Aragaki Kaho said unhappily, "You regret it because you see Miss Yoko become famous. If Miss Yoko fails in her debut, will you still care about her?"

"Xia Fan..." Lin Ye said softly, stopping Aragaki from continuing.

Fujie Akiyoshi was already in tears. He lowered his head and his tears dripped into the wine glass.

"This lady is right. I am the most stupid, greedy and selfish person in the world. But no matter what, I want Yoko to know the truth. Maybe she still has some affection for me in her heart..."

"In my opinion, you'd better disappear completely. You are not worthy of Miss Yoko now. You will only bring her trouble." Aragaki Kaho said mercilessly.

"Completely...disappeared?" Fujie Akiyoshi's pupils were dilated and his face was blank.

Lin Ye shook his head at Xinyuan, signaling her to stop provoking him.

This guy's spirit is already very fragile. If he is provoked further, he might really self-destruct.

Aragaki Kaho curled her lips and turned her face away.

[Tsk, this guy clearly deserves it]

Lin Ye turned around and asked Fujie in a gentle tone:

"Mr. Fujie, have you done anything to Miss Yoko recently?"

This question is very important and determines whether Lin Ye will encourage him or let him surrender.

Fujie Akiyoshi was stunned and said, "I just asked about her residence and bought the information from the paparazzi at a high price. I didn't do anything else."

"I understand." Lin Ye nodded.

"Go meet her, Mr. Fujie, but please be polite and don't let your beautiful memories be tarnished no matter what."

Fujie Akiyoshi was stunned for a while, more tears flowed down his cheeks and gathered on his round chin.

[Will Yoko recognize me in my current state? Will she still be willing to talk to me like this?] At this point, he suddenly backed off.

Lin Ye smiled and said, "I've watched Miss Yoko's show. She's a gentle person. No matter what you become, she will definitely agree to talk to you.

Whatever the outcome, I hope you'll come back here and I'll buy you a drink."

Fujie Akiyoshi stood up and bowed deeply to Lin Ye: "I understand, thank you, Mr. Bartender."

Then he picked up the wine glass on the bar and drank the remaining wine in the glass in one gulp.

The wine in the glass seemed even more bitter, but his heart was determined.

He pulled a ten thousand dollar bill from his wallet and placed it respectfully on the bar.

"It won't take that much, Mr. Fujie."

"Please accept it as an advance payment for tomorrow's drinks. I will definitely come back."

[That guy Yamagishi left 5000 yen, I must leave more tip than him! ]

Lin Ye couldn't help but smile. What a strange desire to win.

In that case, he didn't hesitate and put the money away.

“I wish you find the ideal answer.”

"Okay! Thanks again!"

When Fujie Akiyoshi left, Uncle Mori pushed the door open and walked in, followed by Conan, his little tail.

The two looked at Fujie strangely, feeling that something had happened to this man.

"Isn't this the greedy young man from yesterday? What happened to him?" Uncle Maori sat down at the bar and asked curiously.

"He's gone to do something important."

"Important matter?"

"Sorry, I can't tell you that."

"Oh, I understand. It's about protecting the privacy of our guests, right?" Uncle Maori smiled, stopped asking questions, and ordered a glass of cold beer.

Yoko's singing voice came from the TV, and Maori's attention was immediately attracted.

"Yeah yeah, Yoko gogogo!"

Maori's remote support made Conan, who was standing next to him, twitch his lips. If it wasn't for the purpose of monitoring the two men in black, he really didn't want to sit with this uncle. It was too embarrassing.

I looked around the store, but there was no sign of the two men in black. Haven't they arrived yet?
It doesn’t matter, I have plenty of time and I will wait until you come!
Conan clenched his fists.

Aragaki Kaho secretly glanced at Lin Ye at the bar, her mind in turmoil.

This man seemed to have undergone some kind of change. He seemed to have some kind of magical power that could make guests speak out their true feelings.

[Could he be a hypnotist? Ugh, so scary...]

The time came to nine o'clock.

Conan was already yawning, but the two black guys were still nowhere to be seen.

Lin Ye glanced at him and said with a smile: "Conan, why don't you go back to bed so late? What if you are late for school tomorrow?"

"It's okay, I can get up."

boom!
Kogoro Mouri's iron fist landed on Conan's head.

"Why don't you get up? Go back and take a shower and go to bed."

[If this guy doesn't go back, Xiaolan will come down soon. Then she will definitely cause trouble for me. I still want to drink a few more cups.]

Conan covered his head and ran away unwillingly.

"Uncle Maori, Conan is still a child after all, so it's better to be gentle to him." Lin Ye advised.

Kogoro Mori blew on his fist as if he was a cowboy blowing on the muzzle of a gun.

"This kid deserves a beating."
