She pointed the camera at the QR code on the corner of the table, scanned the menu, selected the drink he had made, and prepared to pay.

Su Che said, "I'll treat you to the first drink; consider it a perk for our new customer."

"Huh...?"

The girl looked up into his eyes, slightly dazed, "Really? Does the store really offer such perks?"

Yes, I say yes, and that means yes.

"Ah... but I want something else..."

"You can order anything you want to eat, and we can make it."

"Okay... but I'd like to order you a drink too. I'd like to... have a drink with you, is that alright?"

"..."

Su Che understood.

"Just tell me what you want to order, but let me make it clear beforehand that you should consider your own financial situation and do what you can afford. After all, I don't own this shop, and I'm not someone that all customers can use for free."

"...320 million? Is that the price outside of working hours too...?"

"Cough um."

Su Che shook his head, not giving a direct answer to the question.

Bai Chu seemed to be deep in thought.

I bent down and ordered him six tequilas, a pitcher of Asahi, a pitcher of Longjing beer, six bottles of Korona, an ice bucket, five lemons, a pack of tissues, and a platter of fried chicken.

"I'm going to... wait a minute, wait a minute."

Su Che was embarrassed. "Bai Chu, can you really handle all this wine? That's a lot... Each pot is 1.5 liters, not 500 milliliters, do you understand?"

"Hmm...don't you still have to help me drink it..."

"Didn't you just say you were only going to have one drink?"

"Yes, drinking a billion cups, that's right."

Bai Chu blinked innocently, as if she were so adorable that she couldn't possibly have any bad intentions.

They must have been wrongly accused.

"..."

Seeing that she had no intention of changing the menu, and even immediately paid the bill and placed the order in advance, Su Che was completely convinced and had no choice but to bite the bullet and make the wine for her.

"I never imagined that someone so young would be such a drunkard."

He added, "Drinking too much alcohol is bad for your voice. I hope you know that."

"Yes, my throat has never been very good."

Maiden de Versailles.

"..."

Su Che returned to the bar, lifted the curtain of the kitchen, and prepared to make some fried food.

Yuan Xiao had been closely monitoring the situation. When he returned stiffly, she thought he had encountered some troublesome matter and volunteered, "A-Che, was that customer being disobedient and making things difficult for you? Do you need my help?"

"...Just pour all the beer shown on the computer screen, put it in a pitcher and take it over. I'll take care of the mixing."

He gave the children instructions on how to divide the tasks.

I think it's not a bad thing for Yuan Xiao to exercise occasionally.

"OK! I'm going right now!"

Yuan Xiao almost never does any work at the store. When other colleagues are around, Sister Ningning will dump all the miscellaneous tasks on them and focus on taking care of Yuan Xiao, telling her that she can just be a decorative vase playing on her phone at the front desk.

This has resulted in the child having worked for almost half a month, yet still not knowing how to do anything.

Only when Su Che was around could she be asked to do some small tasks that she was capable of.

Just that was enough to make her incredibly happy.

"I'm very important! Hehe! He can use me! Others can't! Hehe..."

Children's thoughts are that simple.

She hummed a little tune as she turned on the tap next to a random barrel and poured wine into a glass jug.

"Ice cubes, ice cubes~"

Following Su Che's instructions, she finished everything, grabbed two large jugs of iced beer in each hand, and volunteered to walk towards the guests.

"Here you go, Chuchu! This is your Asahi and Longjing tea, a full 3000 ml! Can you finish it all?"

As expected of a little bird, it immediately started speaking rudely to the guests.

But Bai Chu seemed to appreciate this kind of bluntness, since it made her feel less distant from him.

She covered her mouth and laughed, "If you can't finish it, you can drink it again when you're sober. Anyway, it won't be a waste."

"what?"

This was the first time Yuan Xiao had heard of such a thing. She wondered, could one sober up after drinking and continue?

He couldn't help but look her up and down, wrinkling his nose and muttering to himself:

"You wouldn't have your eye on A-Che, would you? You deliberately got yourself drunk so he could take you home as unfinished business when he closes the door, would you?"

"... "

Bai Chu's expression changed slightly, but only for half a second before she quickly returned to normal.

"Don't wrong others. I'm just here to relax and relieve some work stress, that's all."

"Really? You feel pressured even in such a strong team?"

"The more skilled your teammates are, the more pressure you'll feel; that's common sense."

Bai Chu sighed softly, "In fact, I'm quite envious of your team."

"Our team?"

"Yeah. When you guys are on stage, you always give off a 'this is what a normal band should be like' vibe. But our band isn't like that. So I've always wanted to make a change."

As she spoke, she picked up her glass and took a big gulp of her cocktail.

Glug...

goooo...

With a soft "uh-ha," a blush quickly appeared on her delicate face.

It's obvious that the alcohol has taken its toll.

"Hey, take it easy! Don't push yourself if you can't handle it. Besides, that 'Sunrise' drink you had may taste like juice, but it's really strong! I sneaked a sip! Don't get yourself drunk!"

Yuan Xiao offered a kind reminder.

Bai Chu ignored it and continued to pick up a pitcher of ice-cold beer and pour it into his empty glass.

"Cocktails are like dishes, beer is like food. It is said that food and dishes should be paired together to make them taste right."

"What? Isn't that mixing drinks? Mixing drinks will make you drunk even faster!"

Yuan Xiao couldn't stop her, nor did he have the obligation to interrupt her, so he could only watch helplessly as she gulped down beer and foreign liquor in large gulps...

Before long, he slumped against the back of the sofa, feeling utterly exhausted.

When Su Che walked over carrying fried chicken and a row of tequilas, he was utterly astonished by the sight:

"Yuan Xiao, what's wrong with her? How come she's almost drunk before the food has even arrived?"

"Well, who knows? I just served her the drinks as you said, and she passed out very quickly."

"Ok?"

Su Che squinted and glanced back at the two jugs of beer.

The color of the sunrise looks a bit dark, and the color of the Longjing tea is actually black.

"……no."

Su Che's heart skipped a beat, realizing something was wrong.

I picked up the empty glass, poured a few milliliters into myself, and took a small sip.

In an instant, they realized that the child had poured the wrong beer. They randomly selected the two highest-proof beers in the store, took them out of the keg, and served them to the child without thinking.

If it weren't for the excessive amount of ice added, the concentration of these two jugs of wine would probably have knocked Bai Chu out on the spot.

"Yours is Baltic No. 9, the fighter jet of beer, guaranteed to be at least 16 degrees. Normal beer is around 4 degrees."

Su Che sighed helplessly, "This is troublesome."

"what?!"

Yuan Xiao was startled and turned to look at the row of beer barrels, trying to explain:

“But there were no labels on those buckets at all… I didn’t know which one was which… I saw you were referring to the two buckets at the very back, so I went to fill them up…”

She was a little scared because she had done something wrong, but fortunately, Su Che didn't blame her at all. He just nodded and said:

"It's just a misreading of the order, it's okay. But tonight, we might have to share some responsibility for Bai Chu's situation."

"Ah...that's true."

Yuan Xiao hesitated, indicating that she was willing to accept.

"Let's see if she wakes up in a bit. If she's not awake by the time we close, we'll take her with us; we can't let her sleep in the shop."

"Okay... but where should we take her? Ah Che, do you know where she lives?"

"Of course I don't know. I'm not familiar with her."

"But... that wouldn't be right to leave her on the street either, it's too dangerous..."

Yuan Xiao pondered, "Should I call someone she knows?"

"That might not work either. I don't know her teammates."

"oh oh……"
