impure

The game was scheduled for an hour later, and there was actually a simple dinner meeting between them, but not many people were in the mood to eat.Li Mu simply ate some bread and found a place to practice by himself.

This is not Bacardi or Chivas Regal. Such a competition has a lot of fame and money, and the schedule of the competition is very reasonable.But this new game is different.The budget is already burning to provide a (not delicious) buffet dinner, not to mention higher-end needs such as accommodation.

The idea of ​​the organizer is simply Sima Zhaozhi's heart, which everyone knows: Hurry up and compare, and immediately go back to each house and find each mother after the competition.

A total of 20 groups, each group of 10 people.Play at the same time.The lottery had been drawn before, and Li Mu and Zhu Zhu belonged to Group B.Before the start of the competition, the detailed rules of the competition were read out. The first round of speed adjustment was 5 minutes per person.

The second round is fancy creative bartending, and the time given to everyone will not be too long. Each person has 7 minutes to show the judges their original cocktails that fit the theme of this year's bartending competition.Coupled with the seven-seven-eight-eight-eight judging time, the entire competition schedule did not exceed three hours.

"The competition is too tight," Zhu Zhu said. "At least there is a training session for the Laurel Cup, and the competition is held the day after the opening ceremony."

Li Mu thought nothing of it, he was a newborn calf, and any situation was new to him.

"You have brought all your bartending tools." Zhu Zhu reminded him, "We have to find a place to practice quickly." The organizer "intimately" opened a conference room for the contestants to use.This couldn't be any more crude, Zhu Zhu pouted her lips to the sky, yelling that there was no point in coming to this game. less than investment.

"Let's prepare for the competition first." Li Mu said, "Look, Xu Jing is here again."

Zhu Zhu immediately fell silent, and Xu Jing probed his head, not looking like he was looking for someone to provoke.He found a place, looked left and right, happened to meet Li Mu's eyes, and grinned at him in embarrassment.

Li Mu turned his head not to look at him.

Xu Jing's smile froze on his face, as if it was covered with cement.

The game starts soon.

Zhu Zhu was the first to play in Group B.You could see her nervousness.Li Mu squeezed his palms and watched Zhu Zhu's performance.

She is a skilled bartender, and the mixing spoon and shaker almost have a soul in her hands. Mixing 5 glasses of cocktails within 4 minutes is as intense as the training Zhao Shengyan gave Li Mu.Without changing her face, Zhu Zhu lined up four different glasses, skillfully added ice, poured wine, and stirred them.

As Zhao Shengyan trained, speed bartending is a large-scale game of disassembly and reassembly.Li Mu was obsessed with watching, Zhu Zhu stirred different wines one second, and added vermouth to different wines the next second.Her grasp of the dosage has reached the point of proficiency, and her movements are smooth and smooth, as if planned, which is dizzying.

"She's pretty good, isn't she?" someone said beside Li Mu.Li Mu turned his head and saw that it was Xu Jing with the watermelon head.

"Haven't you asked your name?" Xu Jing stretched out his hand to Li Mu calmly, "I've never seen you before."

It's strange that his attitude has become milder, and he is completely different from before.Seeing that he became more polite, Li Mu couldn't help being a little surprised.It was not easy to express my attitude directly, so I had to shake hands with him weakly, "Li Mu."

"Are you her new boyfriend? I thought she wouldn't find another boyfriend, but I'm also confident that she can't find someone better than me. But if I lose to you, I'd be willing." Xu Jing thought to himself Self-consciously, "But dude, what do you like about her? Big boobs? Or, buttocks?"

Li Mu originally wanted to tell him directly that he and Zhu Zhu were just ordinary friends, and hoped that he would not think too much.But seeing that Xu Jing quickly revealed his true nature, and the dog couldn't spit out ivory, he couldn't help defending Zhu Zhu.

"What else do you have in your eyes other than breasts and butt? I feel sorry for her. I actually talked to you before." Li Mu said coldly, "She is a very good girl. If you still have some dignity as a human being, then Stop being so embarrassing in front of her."

Xu Jing originally wanted to form a relationship with Li Mu, but seeing that Li Mu was dressed differently from others and was somewhat extravagant, he felt that he was probably a hidden rich second generation, and he was just here to play.

Xu Jing has been in the wine circle of Huadu for several years, and there was some improvement in the early years, but now he is getting more and more marginal, and finally he is not even a serious bartender.This time Li Mu was hit on the head, and his face was ugly. After a while, he said: "What are you, showing off your prestige here! I'm already tired of her, you are just picking up my leftover garbage."

Li Mu ignored him at all and walked away.

Only maggots with low self-esteem are eager to dwarf and objectify others, and the result is just being spurned by others.After Zhu Zhu's performance ended, applause and cheers erupted all around. Li Mu squeezed the tool bag in his hand, and seeing the girl's radiant appearance on the stage, he couldn't help taking a deep breath.

"It will be your turn to play soon." Zhu Zhu's forehead had some tiny beads of sweat, "I'm so nervous."

Li Mu smiled and handed her a tissue to wipe off her sweat, "You're so steady, you don't look nervous at all."

Zhu Zhu stuck out her tongue, "If you guys find out, what should I do? Hey, I saw Xu Jing with you just now, what, did he say something to you again?"

"I didn't say anything, just chatting." Li Mu didn't really want to mention this to her so as not to affect her mood.Looking at his friend, he couldn't help but wake up, "Ning Que Wu Lan. There are men with two legs everywhere, so don't just make do with it and find a boyfriend in the trash."

Zhu Zhu smiled, "You're so proud of your relationship now, you've already started to educate me. Oh, say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here, and he called you!"

Li Mu muted the phone, held it in his hand, and hadn't had time to put it back in his pocket.The previous contestant had just finished halfway through the performance, and Li Mu was so frightened that his back was sweating. He stared at the caller ID, not knowing whether he should answer it or not.

"Take it, why don't you take it?" Zhu Zhu asked him puzzled.

Li Mu's heart was beating wildly, and after a few seconds, his heart skipped a beat and he pressed the call button.

"I just arrived." Yue Renge's voice lazily said, "It's been a long time since I flew this flight. Hey, wait a minute, I'll put on my coat, it's so cold here."

"...You're here." Li Mu looked nervously at the stage, and the countdown clock behind the contestants just stopped at one minute and thirty seconds.

He had to hurry up and hang up the phone in this minute and 30 seconds, no, it should be shorter, before the applause and cheers of the audience exploded.

"Well, what about you? What are you doing? I remember you rest tonight."

"...Come out for a walk, take a walk," Li Mu said casually, "Have you eaten yet?"

Yue Renge sighed, "Speaking of eating, I just had an airplane meal on the plane, God, this is really the worst airplane meal I've ever had."

The first glass of wine has been finished, one minute and ten seconds.

"That spaghetti is like a rubber band, I can't stop chewing it." Yue Renge complained, "The apple juice tastes like it's been spoiled, and there are sandwiches, no one in the UK is willing to pay for it ..."

"Leo." Li Mu interrupted him anxiously, "Are you going back to the hotel now?"

"Well, yes." Yue Renge took it easy, as if going from a small confined space to a noisy environment, "I just got off the shuttle bus, and now I'm going to get my luggage...you there It seems a bit noisy, where are you?"

"I, I passed by a square, Yintai Plaza, you know, there is a performance here." Li Mu glanced at the stage.The second glass of wine has also been finished, and the countdown is 50 seconds.

"Well, you should go out and relax. The weather in Huadu is good. You don't know, it just snowed here. It's only October! It's snowing! I don't seem to have enough clothes this time... "Yue Renge seemed to be looking for something to say.But he has always been sticky on the phone, and sometimes the two of them can spend 10 minutes on whoever hangs up first.

Another ten seconds passed.

Li Mu was in a hurry. The contestant could complete the competition task ahead of schedule.Even if it cannot be completed, the applause will sound as promised after 40 seconds.Then the host would call out Li Mu's name aloud, and it would be fully exposed that he had secretly competed without telling Yue Renge.

"I, I have to go to the bathroom," Li Mu's voice was trembling, "I have a stomachache..."

Maybe it was because his voice was trembling too real, Yue Renge was also frightened, "Are you okay?"

"I won't tell you for now!" Li Mu quickly hung up the phone, glanced at Zhu Zhu who was beside him with a surprised face, and sent a message to Yue Renge.

"I'm in a public restroom! I'll call you back later! I have a huge stomachache!"

Yue Renge replied helplessly, "Did I eat badly? I'll take a taxi to the hotel first, and I'll talk to you later."

Li Mu sent him a few emojis, then put away his phone and let out a long breath.

Zhu Zhu couldn't hide the smile all over his face, "Damn it, after a long time, you didn't tell him about this at all?"

"Yeah." Li Mu nodded, "Secret it for me."

It's not a big deal, but it always feels like a guilty conscience.Li Mu didn't know how to explain to Zhu Zhu.Of course, he didn't feel that he did something wrong, after all, everything he did was within the limits of morality and law.

He was just too curious and didn't want to hurt others.

The previous competitor finished the challenge ten seconds early, with whistles, screams and cheers blasting in all directions.The host praised him enthusiastically, the words used were a bit exaggerated, and there was a burst of laughter underneath.The host raised his arm in a serious manner, and pressed his palm down, as if to suppress the sound.

The people fell silent, and the host smiled slightly, "Let's invite the next contestant, from Hualang Bar——ChrisLee!"
