Chapter 176 Colorful Wine
"Maybe going abroad is really a good choice," Leng Yuexin comforted herself, "At least in this way, Zuo Yuan will not be involved in any potential danger." She took a deep breath to calm her inner waves.
However, she now faces a new challenge - to conquer the fickle young master, Lu Cheng.
Whenever she thought of Lu Cheng's unpredictable temper, she got a headache.
The lights in Moonlight Inn are soft, as if bringing a sense of tranquility to this corner.
Andy was busy at the bar when he suddenly saw Leng Yuexin pushing the door open. A look of concern immediately appeared on his face.
He walked up to her quickly and asked softly, "Xiao Leng, how are you doing recently?"
Leng Yuexin shook her head slightly, her eyes falling on Lu Cheng who was sitting on the sofa. He was completely immersed in the world of painting, as if isolated from the world.
She sighed softly and deliberately raised her voice to answer: "Don't mention it. My father has been obstructing me recently, and I haven't found a job yet."
After hearing this, Andy's brows unconsciously frowned. He turned around, got a cup of fragrant coffee from the bar, and handed it to Leng Yuexin, trying to give her some comfort in this way.
Leng Yuexin took the coffee cup and took a sip. The bitter taste with a hint of sweetness made her relax a little.
She sat on the sofa and continued to confide her experience to Andy: "A few days ago, I went to the street to try to sing and earn some money, but I didn't expect to be targeted by gangsters. It's really unlucky."
Andy's face suddenly became serious, and he asked nervously: "Are you okay? Did those hooligans do anything to you?"
Although Lu Cheng was still concentrating on his painting, the brush in his hand paused for a moment, and he obviously heard Leng Yuexin's narration.
Leng Yuexin smiled and shook her head, saying with relief: "Don't worry, I'm fine. They just drove away all my passers-by, so I didn't make any money."
After hearing this, Andy let out a nervous sigh of relief, then asked with concern, "So what are your plans next?"
Leng Yuexin put down the coffee cup and sighed deeply, with a hint of helplessness in her tone: "The lease on my rental house has expired, and I will soon face the dilemma of being homeless."
After hearing this, Andy frowned, obviously worried about Leng Yuexin's situation.
Just then, Lu Cheng's voice broke the silence.
The brush in his hand danced flexibly on the canvas, as if he was not disturbed by the outside world, and his words revealed nonchalance: "How about you work here first, and the studio upstairs can be used as a temporary residence for you."
Leng Yuexin was overwhelmed with joy, but she tried to remain calm, looked at Lu Cheng gratefully, and said softly: "Really? Thank you so much!"
Andy also happily echoed, "That's great, Xiao Leng, you finally have a place to stay."
Lu Cheng didn't look up, but just raised the corners of his mouth slightly and continued to concentrate on his painting, as if the words just now were just a kind gesture from him.
Leng Yuexin observed Lu Cheng silently. It turned out that he was not as cold as he seemed on the surface. In fact, he had a warm heart.
Afterwards, Leng Yuexin returned to her residence, packed her luggage simply, and moved into Lu Cheng's studio.
The next morning, she came to Moonlight Inn and changed into work clothes. She found Andy who was busy at the bar and they started chatting.
Looking around, Leng Yuexin found that there was no one in the cafe, which surprised her: "Andy, I'm a little curious, why is the store always so deserted?"
Andy stopped what he was doing, turned around and looked at her with a smile: "Oh, this is because the store has made some adjustments recently."
Leng Yuexin was even more confused. She remembered that when she came here before, Moonlight Inn was very lively, but now it was unusually deserted. She continued to ask, "Why is it like this?"
Andy pointed to the price list on the wall and explained, "The prices in the store have been adjusted very high, and a special rule has been added here - no female customers are accepted."
Leng Yuexin widened her eyes in shock: "What kind of business strategy is this?"
Andy chuckled and said, "Maybe Xiao Chengzi felt that too many people would disturb him while he was painting, so he made this adjustment."
After hearing this, Leng Yuexin couldn't help but think of her previous conversation with Lu Cheng and her inadvertent comments about him. Could it be that it was really because what she said irritated him?
At this time, Lu Cheng pushed the door open as usual, nodded to Andy at the bar, then walked straight to the sofa, sat down and continued his painting.
Seeing that Lu Cheng still had a cold look on his face, Leng Yuexin couldn't help but sigh in her heart, silently thinking about her next plan.
She quickly cleaned the store and then stood aside, ready to welcome customers.
Lu Cheng was painting when he inadvertently looked up and saw Leng Yuexin standing beside him.
He put down his paintbrush and said calmly, "Find a seat and sit down. Don't stand all the time."
Leng Yuexin was slightly startled, then she obediently found a seat by the window and sat down. She thought to herself, this class is too casual.
Not long after, Andy at the bar waved to Leng Yuexin: "Xiao Leng, come here."
Leng Yuexin walked to the bar suspiciously and asked, "What's the matter?"
Andy handed her a colorful cocktail and said, "This is a new drink I tried to mix. I want you to try it and see how it tastes."
Leng Yuexin was a little surprised: "This... Is it really okay to drink during work hours?"
Andy smiled and said, "Don't worry, if you get drunk, just rest in the studio. If any guests come, I will take care of them."
Leng Yue thought that this might be a good opportunity to communicate with Lu Cheng, so she said hesitantly: "I'd better go ask Lu Cheng, otherwise I'm afraid he might be unhappy if he finds out."
Andy saw Leng Yuexin's concerns, so he shouted directly to Lu Cheng: "Xiao Chengzi, I'll let Xiao Leng help me try the new wine."
Lu Cheng was still concentrating on his painting. He didn't look up, but responded coldly: "Let her try. If she doesn't die from drinking, give me a glass too."
Hearing this, Leng Yuexin couldn't help but shudder, thinking: Is Andy really mixing something weird? Is he trying to become a real-life "drug maker"?
Seeing this, Andy signaled Leng Yuexin with his eyes, as if to say, "Don't hesitate, give it a try!"
Leng Yuexin took a deep breath, made up her mind, and decided to face it bravely. She picked up the colorful glass of wine, closed her eyes, and drank it all.
After drinking it, she opened her eyes and found Andy looking at her nervously.
