That's right, Chen Wei was the first to smell the aroma. After all, in terms of smelling alcohol, even Wu Hai couldn't match up to him.
"Hmm, the aroma is nice." The novelist nodded in agreement.
The white foam of the beer had yet to subside, but the aroma of the beer was getting stronger and stronger. Mixed with the slightly cold air, it made one feel a little tipsy.
"Gulp." The novelist didn't hold back and drank a big mouthful.
The moment the beer entered his mouth, it felt cold at first. But when it entered his throat, it immediately heated up. The aroma of the beer mixed with the golden wheat rushed into his throat.
"Phew, not bad." The novelist revealed a small smile.
After saying that, the novelist took another mouthful.
This time, the feeling in his mouth was even better. It was as if his body had been opened up, and the aroma of the beer spread out in his mouth.
The beer was cold, but the body was warm. The aroma of the beer rose to the novelist's face, and he felt his face turning red. His mind also felt warm, and his whole body felt warm.
It was the kind of gentle warmth that spread from the inside out.
"Delicious. It's not like those mature beers that have an astringent taste." Chen Wei, who had already started drinking, nodded his head and drank half of the beer in one gulp.
From Chen Wei's point of view, the moment the beer entered his mouth, the bitterness spread out on the tip of his tongue. Before he could feel the bitterness, the aroma of the beer appeared and took over his mouth. After swallowing, he felt refreshed and had a good texture.
"As expected, Boss Yuan's beer is delicious," Chen Wei said as he took another mouthful. This time, he only had half of the beer left in his cup.
"Ah." After drinking the beer, Chen Wei couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"The beer is refreshing and not astringent at all. The aroma of the beer is rich, and the smell of the wheat is nice. There's also a fresh taste. This is a top-grade draft beer." Chen Wei put down his cup.
"It's indeed not bad. I always felt that beer was bitter, astringent, and sour. Although this beer is bitter, it's not sour or astringent. The bitterness is quite refreshing." Yin Ya also drank half of the beer in small gulps.
"The beer is not bad." The drunkard Jiang Changxi nodded her head as well.
"Sigh, I've been surpassed again." Fang Heng muttered with a frown as he drank.
"Haha, don't worry. It is impossible for you to surpass Boss Yuan," said Chen Wei with a laugh.
"What nonsense are you spouting?" Fang Heng gave Chen Wei an annoyed look.
"I'm not going to talk to you anymore. Shin Min, give me another cup. This will be my cup in the future," Chen Wei picked up the empty cup and said loudly.
"Yes, Boss Yuan said that this cup belongs to everyone from now on." Shin Min nodded and explained.
This was also what she had forgotten to mention earlier.
"That's good. It feels even better to have a cup of my own." Jiang Changxi was a little envious.
"That's not bad." Yin Ya blushed when she thought of the cup with her name engraved on it being stored in the Yuanzhou shop.
"That's a good idea. I also want to imitate it and order a few cups." Fang Heng said frankly at the side.
"Tsk tsk, what a businessman," the novelist said.
"Don't worry. I will definitely get the consent of Boss Yuan first. After all, I am imitating Boss Yuan," said Fang Heng.
"Alright, let's drink. Pour me another cup," said Jiang Changxi as she pointed at the cup.
That's right. Fang Heng didn't drink directly from the cup. Instead, he asked for a cup from the novelist so that they could share the beer.
"Come on, let's toast to the beer," Chen Wei took the cup that had been refilled and raised his cup happily.
"Cheers," the few of them said in unison and started drinking.
With the beer, the Yuan Zhou Pub became even livelier. In the past, drinking was a competition among the customers. Now, however, it was a competition of drinking in full swing.
That was the charm of beer. It made people more relaxed and the atmosphere more lively.
…
The night in the pub had passed. Meanwhile, Wu Hai started a new round of picky eating.
"I don't want it. I refuse. I don't want it," Wu Hai retorted.
"Little Hai, you should eat a little," said Zheng Jiawei. "You haven't eaten anything for a day."
Previously, Wu Hai would still eat dried meat and fruits. But ever since he painted "This is Life", he couldn't even eat dried meat and fruits anymore.
Wu Hai turned a deaf ear to him. As the saying goes, the greatest emotion comes from painting. Most of the time, painting a painting could also affect the emotions of the painter.
Of course, this was only applicable to other painters. Wu Hai's current situation wasn't like that. He was just a picky eater and didn't want to eat.
"Little Hai, come." Zheng Jiawei passed the food to Wu Hai without any impatience.
Zheng Jiawei was really impressive. At first, Wu Hai got angry, then he got angry, and now he was helpless.
"Now, other than Compass's food, I don't want to eat anything else." Wu Hai lay by the roots like a dead fish.
"Then we should hurry back," said Zheng Jiawei. "I'll pack up. We'll go back to Chengdu tomorrow."
He thought that Wu Hai would be happy, but Wu Hai rubbed his shriveled belly and shook his head. "No, the art gathering isn't over yet."
"The original plan was a week, but we've already stayed for half a month." Zheng Jiawei immediately posted a bunch of data. "Plus, we've already painted seven paintings in this half a month, including 'This is Life'. Be it time or production, the art gathering should be over."
"Are you the one doing the art gathering or am I?" Wu Hai raised his voice. "I said it's not over, so it's not over."
"Little Hai, how long are you planning to stay?" asked Zheng Jiawei.
Wu Hai scratched his greasy hair. He was also annoyed by this question. He had a feeling that there were still some things he hadn't seen in this small village deep in the mountains of Qian Province.
He felt that there was still something important that he hadn't painted. That was why he was hungry and hadn't returned to Chengdu.
In comparison, things were going smoothly for Yuan Zhou because the video of his ice sculpture was uploaded online and became famous.
A few videos were uploaded to Weibo with the following titles: "Folk Expert, Legendary Chef", "Boss Yuan Is Doing Something Again", "Expert Filmed This Afternoon" …
After all, not many people could sculpt Twin Dragons Fighting for a Pearl so easily, especially when Yuan Zhou was using a kitchen knife.
From this point of view, even those who didn't know much about ice sculpting felt that it was very impressive.
"Using a kitchen knife to sculpt ice? I feel like there's something wrong with my eyes." "If it wasn't for the shaky video and the fact that the camera didn't change at all, I really wouldn't believe that this is real." "As an ice sculptor who has been learning ice sculpting for two years, I'm stunned. Lastly, I want to ask, which ice sculptor is the person in the video?"
The last question was asked by a netizen called "Want to Quit Reading". Of course, this netizen's IP address wasn't in Chengdu.
