"Is Brother Chuan sick?" Li Mu asked his colleague while changing clothes.

Recently, Liang Chuan asked for leave a little frequently, which has never happened before.

"No, right? Didn't you say that Mr. Yue promised him to take more vacation?" The colleague was surprised, and mysteriously spread the gossip to Li Mu, "You don't know, do you? I heard that Brother Chuan will not work with us soon. !"

"No way?" Li Mu was a little surprised, "If he's not working here, where is he going?"

"I heard that I'm going to be the owner of another bar." The gossip spreads that all the elements are complete, and it also comes with a logical chain, "I heard that Mr. Yue is going to enter the media industry and will start signing Internet celebrities! Annie, Annie I love drinking, do you know that?"

Annie?That Internet celebrity?Li Mu started out as a bar shop explorer video, and Li Mu has been surfing the Internet for a long time, so he has heard about it.

"What's wrong with Annie?" Li Mu asked.

"Boss Yue wants to sign her!"

This thing is really out of the question.

Li Mu decided to give up getting reliable information from unreliable colleagues.

Because it is impossible.

Li Mu couldn't help feeling a little apprehensive, and it's not good to make random guesses, so he decided to ask Yue Renge.It's a pity that Yue Renge is not around right now.

Dionys' days without Liang Chuan turned into Li Mu's most real feeling, that is, he became busier.

Amy temporarily replaced Liang Chuan as the lead tuner, including the original two bartenders, plus Li Mu—if it was in those small bars, this kind of staffing would be enough.But in Dionysia, it can only be described as being in a hurry.

Li Mu already has the appearance of a bartender.Yue Renge gave them uniforms, the most common white shirts and black aprons.Such simple clothes are often very picky.Li Muren was tall and straight, with well-proportioned muscles, and when he put on clothes, he looked slim as a teenager.He has become a lot more talkative than before. Amy noticed carefully that there have been a lot more girls going in and out of the bar recently, and most of them are sitting at the bar and chatting with Li Mu.

When Li Mu spoke, there was a slight smile on his face.His appearance was originally refreshing and sunny, and when he smiled, his thick eyebrows stretched slightly.He still didn't talk too much, but he was not in a hurry, and he felt like he was pressing the post.The girls only drank sparkling wine, and they drank slowly. For four and a half quarters of the five minutes, they rested their chins on their hands and watched Li Mu mix the drinks in a nympho.

This will affect business.

Amy complained in her heart, but it is undeniable that business has gotten better recently.

If Liang Chuan saw this scene, he didn't know whether he should be relieved or vomit blood.

After all, this kid has grown into a scourge.

After finally getting rid of a customer who had been occupying the bar for a long time, Li Mu let out a sigh of relief.As the night approached, the gathered guests had gradually dispersed. "Tired?" Amy asked him with a smile, "Would you like to take a rest?"

"Not tired." Li Mu smiled, "How can I get tired so quickly."

"Ouch, someone is here again." Amy glanced at the entrance, "It's too late for you to rest now."

Here comes a pretty girl.

Of course there are many beautiful girls, but this one is a bit morbidly beautiful.The skin is like snow, and the faint blue blood vessels under the skin can almost be seen.A dark cloud of long hair draped over his shoulders, with a sad expression on his face.Li Mu always felt that that face was a little familiar, and somehow thought of a line of poetry: sick as Xizi wins three points.

"What would you like to drink?" Li Mu asked after clearing the table.

"I don't know either." The girl lifted her eyelids listlessly, and said in a soft voice, "Look at the tune."

After staying in the bar for a long time, I can meet any guests.Influenced by some film and television dramas, people always think that bartenders are proficient in mind reading, and can mix drinks through your mood, makeup and even today's horoscope.

But the concubine can't do it!

Li Mu stopped what he was doing, "Did something happen to you today? I feel that you are not very happy."

The girl raised her head slightly when she heard this, "So what if you're not happy? Can't you drink if you're not happy?"

"Of course not," Li Mu smiled, "I just thought, if I were you, what kind of wine would I drink when I'm unhappy."

"Then guess what?" The girl held her chin, "What kind of wine will I drink?"

Li Mu looked at her carefully again, there was a faint smile on the corner of the girl's mouth, as if it was a long-planned premeditation.Li Mu suddenly remembered where this deja vu came from.

"You don't like sweet and sour wine," Li Mu said, "How about a martini?"

"Oh, I thought you didn't recognize me?" The girl smiled, "It seems that you still can't escape."

"Annie, you are more beautiful than in the video." Li Mu said, "But I am not your fan, so I let you down."

The girl was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.She laughed exaggeratedly, her long black hair trembled slightly, and a slight blush appeared on her snow-white face, which made her look a little bloody.

"You're very interesting." Annie looked at the name tag on his chest, and said word by word, "Li Mu, it's so strange, why don't you have an English name?"

In fact, Li Mu also has an English name. When he was studying abroad, he chose Chris for convenience.It's rarely used now that I'm back home.Yue Renge also asked the same question, Li Mu answered honestly, and the other party smiled after listening, "You should call Li Mu."

"Because my Chinese name is very short." Li Mu smiled and began to mix drinks, "Annie, what do you think if one day we mix martinis with baijiu?"

"This is a new attempt." The girl was aroused and chatted, "I remember that Mr. Yue is doing this kind of experiment... Anyway, being the first to eat crabs requires ability and courage. Little handsome guy, you have to Cocktails, you know, are completely foreign.”

"We will succeed." Li Mu said with a smile.

"Then I'll give you an exclusive interview." Annie smiled slightly.

A guest recognized her and came over to take a photo with Annie.The girl did not refuse. After dealing with the fans, she took the cocktail that had been mixed, "I'm sorry, I'm not here to record a video today. Otherwise, you'll get angry."

Li Mu thought it was unnecessary.He's just a bartender, and those external fame really don't mean much to him.He handed over another small plate of small round biscuits, and put it in Anne's hand, "I know. But it's rare to not shoot a video, so it's good to relax."

Annie smiled and said nothing.A mouthful of biscuits and a sip of wine, drinking until late at night.When leaving, he deliberately waved goodbye to Li Mu.

Li Mu watched the beautiful woman go away, and suddenly remembered angrily: I haven't asked her for an autograph yet!Although I am not her fan, Liang Chuan is.

And Liang Chuan was still picking his feet at home.

Li Mu was worried about his situation, so he ran to ask Yue Renge.

Yue Renge pondered for a while, "Old Liang had a physical examination some time ago, and he had some health problems and needed to recuperate. But it's not a big deal, he's just tired for a long time. He's still young, and he's recovering quickly."

This is right, listening to what you say is like listening to what you say.Nothing important has been revealed, so it's not as reliable as gossip.

A day later, Yue Renge called Li Mu again, "Don't you always want to see him? I'm going to his house this afternoon, do you want to come together?"

Who always wants to meet this old poisonous tongue?Li Mu slandered inwardly.But he had to admit that he was really thinking about it.Thinking about the etiquette of visiting patients again, he asked, "Shall I prepare something?"

"No, you just need someone in place."

Li Mu never knew where Liang Chuan's family lived.After knowing him for half a year, they have become a master and student who have a tacit understanding from each other.But outside of the bar, outside of the master and apprentice, Li Mu knew little about Liang Chuan.

Li Mu didn't even know where his family lived.

Liang Chuan's home is actually very close to Bar Street.15 minutes walk away.Yue Renge didn't drive that day, and he didn't even let Li Mu ride a bicycle, but walked there - because this place can only be walked.

There is such a place in Shangsha District, where every inch of land is expensive.

It was the ugly scar covered by Hua Chang's clothes, stitched up distortedly, and new pink flesh grew out.The pain is no longer painful, but there is an unbearable itching.

Across a road, across a tall building, it almost grows like weeds from the cracks between the buildings - such a narrow alley.

Maybe it's really not as good as the village in the city where Li Mu lives.Electric wires were densely intertwined from the top of the head into a thick bundle like scrap iron, splitting the originally gloomy sky into pieces.Clothes poles protruding from the windows of every household are covered with bunting-like women's bras, panties, T-shirts and skirts with non-mainstream portraits.With a cigarette in his mouth, Yue Renge brushed away the hem of a long skirt in front of him—the window was indeed too low, and the hem of the skirt was too long—Yue Renge walked into the room leisurely. alley.

Li Mu followed closely behind him.

It was afternoon, when the heat was transpiring, and people were so sleepy that their upper and lower eyelids wished to stick together.Li Mu carefully bypassed the two children who were taking pictures at the door of the house, and an old lady leaning on a bamboo chair with a cattail fan shaking every 5 minutes, and finally stood downstairs in Liang Chuan's house.

Yue Renge knocked on the door, but no one answered, he opened the door and went in.

Li Mu: ? ? ?

And this kind of operation?

In fact, this is not Liang Chuan's home, Liang Chuan's home is on the fifth floor.

This is a very old, self-built house on the basis of a homestead.When Shangsha District was being developed and constructed, this area was not included in the planning for a time.Now the entire Shangsha District has become the center of Huadu. When a certain leader was appreciating his masterpiece of political achievements, he discovered that this narrow alley—a short street less than a hundred meters away—is full of such self-built houses.

Housing prices soared again and again, and the land acquisition was not considered well at the beginning, and now these demolition households are guarding this piece of wealth-gathering land tightly.If we can't talk for a year or two, until the leader is replaced, the matter will be delayed like this.

Li Mu lived on the top floor of one of the small dilapidated buildings.

Yue Renge knocked on the door for a long time before Liang Chuan opened it slowly.It didn't fully open, only opened a crack, the safety chain was still hanging, Liang Chuan's face was stuck in the crack of the door, "What are you doing?"

"What else can I do?" Yue Renge shook the things in his hand, "Come and see you."

"Have you seen enough? Go away."

Liang Chuan was about to close the door again, Li Mu poked his head out from behind Yue Renge, "Brother Chuan, let's come and see you."

Liang Chuan was stunned for a moment, a little surprised, but he still said unhappily, "What are you looking at?"

"Let us go in first, okay?" Li Mu still had a good-natured smile, "We brought you peaches."

Liang Chuan closed the door with a bang.

Li Mu and Yue Renge looked at each other.

After a few seconds, the door reopened.Liang Chuan turned his back and walked in draggingly. "My place is messy and I haven't cleaned it for days."
