Angel share Bar is crowded tonight. Excellent drinks with good atmosphere.
Venti is singing as usual. He is a good singer. A drunkard bard. That's what people labeled him behind his back. He is a cheerful fellow with a big fondness of wines.
Charles is busy mixing drinks for customers.
Dilluc and Kaeya are sharing a table. Drinking together like old days.
Charles secretly hopes the peace between them would last a bit longer. They clearly still love each others.
Zhong Li follows Childe into the Bar. They sit at a table near the door.
Childe glances around. He smirks when he notices Dilluc and Kaeya.
He says, "I'm going to order our drinks. What do you like to drink?"
"I prefer tea."
Childe chuckles. This isn't a tea house. Doubt they serve tea here. Charles, the bulky bartender might throw him out if he ordered tea.
He comments, "Let me ask if he had Osmanthus wine. You love to drink it, right?"
Zhong Li nods his head. He smiles brightly. It seems his boyfriend remembers his daily preferences.
Childe goes and orders, "Charles, my good man. Please give me a glass of Dandelion Wine. And... Do you have Osmanthus wine?"
"You mean the sweet tasted wine from Li Yue Harbor? Yeah. We got few bottles here. Heck, Boss even stores some Fire water bottles from Snezhnaya."
Childe asks, "Fire water? The locals don't like them, do they? Only Sneznayans drink such strong booze."
"We got some Fatui people staying in Goth Hotel. They rented the whole building. Damn rich foreigners!"
"On second thought, cancel the Dandelion Wine. Get me a glass of Fire water."
Charles rolls his eyes. Another stupid freak who wanted to get knocked out. This booze is too strong for average folks.
Childe pays the bills. He asks a waiter to deliver the drinks to their table.
He goes and approachs Dilluc and Kaeya.
The Capt looks friendly as usual. Full of smile. Only his squinted eye shows he is feeling hostile to Childe.
Dilluc says nothing. He is busy drinking his grape juice.
It's funny. The owner of the biggest wine industry in Monstadt doesn't like to drink wine. Apparently he is a lightweight drinker.
Childe takes out two bottles of perfumes. One red crystal bottle (Fiery Rose). The other one got a blue bottle (Cool Mint).
He offers the red one to Dilluc.
He says, "Hello. This is our newest product in the market. Please take this sample."
Dilluc frowns and accepts it. Not the first time people approach him for money. It's the fate of a tycoon.
He asks, "How much?"
"Oh, no. It's free sample. Take it as a thank you sign. You probably didn't remember. You helped me once when I'm super poor."
Dilluc nods his head and puts the bottle on the table.
Childe offers Capt. Kaeya the blue bottle.
Kaeya smirks and asks, "I got a share too?"
"Of course. How could I leave you behind?"
If I only give one to Dilluc, you probably would hunt me down. Kaeya is very territorial man. He thinks Dilluc as his property.
Kaeya opens the lid and takes a sniff. The smell of cool refreshing mint hits his nose. It's fragrant and not exaggerated smell.
