Ke Xue Bartender

Chapter 85 Shirley, Little Friend
"...Mr. Lin Ye? Mr. Lin Ye?"

Lin Ye was awakened by Miyano Akemi's gentle voice.

Lin Ye came back to his senses and found that his sister was looking at him with a frown, and there was a hint of displeasure in her eyes.

[This man is so rude, staring at someone's face like this]

It's broken, it's out of control.

Turning around, Lin Ye found that Miyano Akemi's expression was also a little embarrassed.

[Mr. Lin Ye always likes to look at others like this. The last time he looked at me like this, this time it was Shiho...]

"Ahem, sorry. I was just thinking about something. Sorry for being rude." Lin Ye said after returning to his normal expression.

Miyano Shiho cast a curious look at me.

[Hey, this man's expression changes so quickly. He doesn't seem to be lying... Then what was he thinking when he looked at my face just now? ]

I saw something incredible, but it's a secret that cannot be told.

Lin Ye quickly changed the subject:

"Ms. Huimei, are you old enough to drink?"

Miyano Shiho was stunned for a moment before she realized that she was now Miss "Emi" and said calmly:
"I don't drink, just give me a glass of grape juice."

[You want to find out my age in this way? Oh, a girl's age is a secret, how can I easily tell a man?]

I'm sorry, Miss Shirley, I already know.

However, unlike her cold appearance, Miss Shirley's mental activities are unexpectedly rich.

After all, she is an 18-year-old girl, at an age when her thinking is relatively active.

Lin Ye couldn't help but smile.

The subtle changes in the corners of his mouth did not escape the girl's bright eyes.

[What is he laughing at? A strange man...]

"Ms. Huimei, do you like sweet things?" Lin Ye suddenly asked.

"Sweet? I don't like it, but I don't hate it either." Miyano Shiho said in a flat tone.

"Ms. Huimei, you are doing research, right? Do you feel dizzy and weak sometimes?"

Miyano Shiho nodded slightly.

She was still wearing the white coat of the research institute and looked like a scientific researcher, and she had no intention of hiding it.

Although her sister asked her to dress up before going out, she felt it was unnecessary. There was even melanin deposits under her eyes from staying up late last night.

Although it is very faint, you can still see it if you look closely.

This guy just stared at my face with wide eyes, he must have seen it.

So she was not surprised that Lin Ye asked such a question.

Seeing her nod, Lin Ye continued:

"Sugar is the main source of energy for the brain. As a person who does mental work, you should supplement more sugar, which can make your brain more flexible and make you feel happier."

"So what?" Miyano Shiho glanced at Lin Ye.

[Of course I know this, but eating too much sweets can easily make you fat.]

It turns out she was also worried about getting fat.

The corners of Lin Ye's mouth rose slightly again.

After a brief contact, he had already discovered it.

This girl, who looks cold on the outside, actually hides a pure heart.

Maybe it’s because he was trapped in that mysterious organization, staying in the laboratory for a long time and unable to contact ordinary people.

Even meeting with my sister is restricted, let alone ordinary people.

[That weird guy has that smile again]

Catching the smile on Lin Ye's lips again, Miyano Shiho revealed a hint of dissatisfaction in her bright eyes.

Lin Ye quickly put away his smile and said, "I would like to treat Miss Huimei to a special cocktail."

"I told you, I don't drink."

"Actually, this is a non-alcoholic drink with a mainly sweet taste. It is classified as a cocktail only because the way it is prepared is very similar to bartending," Lin Ye explained.

Miyano Shiho thought for a moment, and then felt her sister's encouraging gaze.
[My sister seems to be very impressed with his skills. Well, for her sake, I'll give it a try.]

So he nodded gently:

"can."

Hearing her sister's agreement, Miyano Akemi showed a warm smile on her face.

Although Shiho's tone was always cold and her words were brief, they were far more than what she would say to outsiders.

Mr. Lin Ye is really good at communicating with people. If he brings Shiho here more often in the future, the two of them will definitely become friends.

It might be a little difficult for them to become lovers. After all, Shiho's personality is too cold, and there is no shortage of enthusiastic girls around Mr. Lin Ye.

But as long as Shiho can have another friend she can talk to, she, as her sister, will be very happy.

Miyano Akemi was thinking about this when Lin Ye suddenly turned around and asked her:

"Ms. Yami, what would you like to drink?"

He heard everything that Akemi Miyano was thinking.

Don't worry, Ms. Akemi, I will definitely become good friends with Ms. Shiho.

As for whether this relationship can be further developed, Lin Ye is cautious.

After all, if he develops a deep relationship with Miss Shiho, he will inevitably be targeted by that mysterious organization.

If they were just ordinary friends, it would be fine. After all, he had already had contact with many members of that organization, so one more wouldn't matter.

Miyano Akemi smiled and replied, "It's still a glass of red and black. You make it for Huimei first, I'm not in a hurry."

Lin Ye nodded and began to prepare the materials needed.

He was going to make a cocktail called the Shirley Temple.

It contains no alcohol at all and is usually served to children at a banquet or to children sitting at the same table with adults.

That’s why it’s also called “children’s cocktail”.

The pronunciation of Shirley is very similar to the Sherry in sherry, and Miss Shiho doesn't drink alcohol, so Lin Ye thought of this kind of wine first.

Cocktails for kids.

Combined with the suspected future scene he had just seen, Lin Ye felt it was more appropriate.

In addition, Shirley Temple is actually the name of a legendary American child star who was active in Hollywood in the 20s and won the 30th Academy Award for Special Performance at the age of 7.

Her name even crossed the ocean and spread to China at that time.

Shirley Temple, a name full of the style of old Shanghai, was the translated name that appeared in newspapers at the time.

This drink was also created by the American bartender at the time to express his love for her.

However, in the field of cocktails, this name is obviously inappropriate, so it is generally translated as "Shirley Denbo" in modern times.

Of course, Lin Ye still doesn’t know whether this little child star has ever appeared in America in this world.

The Internet and mobile communication technologies of this era were not as developed as they would be twenty years later, so it was not very convenient to look up information.

While thinking, Lin Ye had already prepared all the raw materials.

Lemon soda, ginger ale, grenadine, syrup-soaked cherries, and ice.

First, put ice cubes into the Colin glass, just over halfway.

Then pour in grenadine, equal parts lemon soda and ginger ale, and add three bright red syrup cherries.

Finally, stir gently with a spoon a few times to mix evenly.

"Shirley~Denpo. Ms. Emi, please."

Lin Ye paused slightly after Shirley, observing the girl's nervous expression before saying the rest of the words.

Miyano Shiho let out a sigh of relief.

[I was shocked. I thought this guy knew my organization's code name, but it turns out it's just the name of this drink.]

When he heard Shirley's pronunciation, Toru Amuro's attention was also attracted.

[Shirley? Ah, I remember now. Aunt Elena's little daughter's code name in the organization is Shirley.]

[No wonder I thought of Aunt Elena when I saw them. They must be Aunt Elena's daughters]

[It turns out to be Mingmei... No wonder she looks so familiar. ]

Recalling the time when he was taken to Miyano Clinic by Akemi as a child, and how he later got injured in a fight in order to see Aunt Elena, a nostalgic smile appeared on Toru Amuro's lips.

But the smile soon disappeared, a trace of sadness flashed across his eyes, and his gaze dropped.

【Aunt Elena...】

Lin Ye at the bar glanced at Amuro Toru.

There's something wrong with this boy. Could it be that he likes the sisters' mother?
At this moment, the bell in the corner of the door suddenly rang.

Before the door opened, the voice of a little boy with a baby voice came through the crack in the door.

"Good afternoon, Uncle Lin Ye."
