President's Substitute Wife

The bartender quickly mixed the wine. Soon he brought a glass of wine to me again.

I took a close look. There didn’t seem to be much difference between this drink and the one just now. It had more bubbles and a slice of lemon.

I just suffered a loss, so I drank slower this time.

I tasted a little first.

Sure enough, it had a lot of flavor and I even felt it was sweet.

I sat there and drank.

Maybe after this kind of wine was adjusted, it became more acceptable and I drank it more smoothly.

When I had a few drinks, the bartender brought a fruit plate. I thanked him and ate fruit.

When I ate, a man sat next to me and said to the bartender, “Encounter, please.”

The bartender didn’t speak and turned to mix the wine.

Soon a glass of wine was put on the bar. The man pushed the wine in front of me and said, “beauty, this wine is for you to celebrate our encounter.”

Maybe I drank too fast. I felt a little sleepy.

I heard him and opened my eyes slightly and looked up at him.

The man wore a black shirt and no tie. Several buttons on his collar were unbuttoned and he was wearing pants of the same color.

His hair was waxed and his eyebrows were thick. He looked at me vaguely.

He was dressed in a shirt and trousers and deliberately dressed up, but I could see at a glance that he was at most twenty-five years old.

I ignored him and continued to drink.

He didn’t seem to be frustrated at all. He approached me. “I like arrogant women.”

“Ha.” I sneered and took my left hand off the bar. I picked up the metal fork on the plate and ate a piece of Pitaya.

Ha-ha.
