Chapter 4 A Holiday in the Bar(1/2)
Ah Hao was surprised to see the woman in the white dress passed out on the sofa.
In addition to the coconut fragrance that permeated her body, there were waves of pleasant sweetness coming from her body.
"Mary? What's wrong? Wake up, Mary!"
Boss Qiao was the first to notice that Mary was unconscious. He was shaking Mary's shoulders vigorously.
"What happened to Mary?! What did you do?"
Boss Qiao turned his head and looked at Ah Hao with bloodshot eyes.
"It's impossible, Boss Qiao. None of us have ever left your sight."
Ah Hao spread his hands to Boss Qiao and then turned to look at Wen De. He really didn't pay attention to what was going on and was just busy bargaining.
Wen De didn't know what happened, but he was more attentive.
He saw a straw stuck in the perfume bottle on the table.
Picking it up easily, he found that half of the original full bottle of perfume was gone.
"It seems that Mary drank the perfume?" He showed everyone the perfume bottle with a straw inserted in confusion and shock.
A straw in a perfume bottle?
"Fuck, this crazy woman! She really can do anything.
"Come on, lend a hand and help take her to the hospital."
Boss Qiao knew that he had misunderstood.
"Boss Qiao, don't worry, Mary seems to be fine." Ahao calmed down after knowing that the woman just drank perfume, "She is probably just drunk."
The smell of Mary's body is reassuring and comfortable, like being immersed in a beautiful dream.
"Drunk? What do you mean?"
After hesitating, Ahao still revealed a piece of information: "Well, actually, the solvent in this bottle of perfume is vodka."
"So Miss Mary is probably just drunk, although I don't know why she would want to drink perfume."
After hearing this, Boss Qiao showed a puzzled expression, but calmed down. He went up to check Mary's condition carefully and found that she did seem to be drunk.
Boss Qiao carried Mary to the corner of the sofa, took off his leather jacket and covered her with it.
When he came back, he breathed a sigh of relief and felt obviously relaxed.
It seems that Boss Qiao cares about Mary quite a bit.
Ahao thought before that they just had... that kind of relationship.
"Vodka, hey, why do you use vodka to make perfume?"
"The secret, this involves the formula. We agreed before not to talk about the formula, Boss Qiao."
Ahao replied seemingly calmly.
In fact, he was quite panicked. The reason for using vodka was simple - poverty.
Moreover, he is still a wild man and does not have the means to buy formal materials.
To put it simply, perfume is a combination of fragrance raw materials and solvents. The most commonly used solvent is alcohol, and the concentration of alcohol is generally fine-tuned according to the type of perfume.
Like Zunana perfume, the solvents they use are specially customized perfume-grade alcohol.
Ahao can't get this thing, nor can he afford it.
——So he used vodka, the strongest kind.
Boss Qiao didn't go into details. He just looked at Ahao uneasily, "Are you sure there's nothing wrong with your perfume? Mary won't get drunk so easily. She's a very good drinker."
"Theoretically you can drink it."
"hehe."
Seeing this, Wen De quickly came up to smooth things over, "Don't be angry, Qiao, Ah Hao hasn't drank this before, right? He can only guarantee that the raw materials are safe, right Ah Hao?"
"Well, yes, it's safe."
Ah Hao said three times affirmatively, but his mind kept wandering about the ingredients he used.
Purchased coconut scented essential oil – probably safe;
Figs that disguise the aroma of coconut milk – safe;
Lime and orange provide freshness - safe;
The island ylang-ylang that creates a sense of sunshine—well, the flowers should be edible, right?
Watermelon ketones that create the moist feeling of the ocean - ah, this thing, you don’t want to eat it, do you?!
Figs, lemons, oranges, and ylang-ylang flowers are all natural flavors. Ahao purchased the raw materials and extracted them himself using the equipment in the store.
But that’s not the case with watermelon ketone! It’s the “material” that Ah Hao bought from the black market at a huge price.
He only knew that this raw material had a very fresh fruity aroma and moist feeling after dilution.
And he had never smelled it in any other perfume before.
He had no idea how the raw material was made or whether it could be eaten.
...
"Ah Hao, Wen De. In that case, let's drink and look at this bottle of perfume together!"
As soon as I came back to my senses, I heard Boss Qiao say something very outrageous.
He neatly poured the cocktail on the table onto the floor.
He brought three empty glasses over and poured the remaining perfume in the bottle into them one by one.
The whole room was filled with fragrance, so much so that Ah Hao felt a bit smelly.
Ahao tried hard to control his breathing.
Ah Hao wanted to shout loudly, did you know that there is something called a nozzle on perfume?
It is designed so that you only use a little bit at a time!
Who would pour perfume into a cup?
The silver-white liquid created a whirlpool in the cup, and the mica powder swam like clouds.
Ah Hao's scalp was a little numb and he forgot that there was stone powder in it!
And apart from that, the biggest problem is still the solvent - wine!!
The alcohol concentration of mature commercial perfumes on the market is absolutely impossible to drink!
As for Ahao's perfume, although he uses vodka, in order to allow the fragrance to evaporate well, he also chose the strongest one.
After all, when Ah Hao made the perfume, he never thought that anyone would drink it.
Ah Hao has never drunk such a strong drink. He usually drinks malt wine and beer.
"Come on, come on!"
Boss Qiao handed two glasses of perfume to them, with an unknown light shining in his eyes.
Wen De took it with an expression of embarrassment, and then winked at Ah Hao crazily, as if asking him if he wanted to drink.
Ah Hao almost stiffened his neck and nodded to him.
He decided to drink.
There are too many reasons, but the most crucial point is that they all came out.
"Cheers!"
That idiot named Qiao looked like he was going to die for his lover.
"Cheers?" "Cheers..."
Amidst the crisp collision sound, Ahao looked at the wine glass in his hand.
The good news is that it's not actually overfilled.
Before drinking, Ahao couldn't help but wailed in his heart:
After all, why do you want to drink my perfume!!!
"Done it!" "Here's to this bitch of a flying star city!"
Lift your neck, open your mouth, pour, and swallow.
With such neat movements, he fainted completely.
In the dizzying situation, Ahao lost consciousness.
...
Ah Hao tried his best to open his eyes and quickly closed them again.
Why was the sun so bright? And he felt like he was lying on a very soft place.
Then two shadows covered it.
Under the protection of the shadow, he opened his eyes, but only saw two faces very close to him.
"Are you awake?!" Two loud voices came at the same time.
Ahao was so frightened that he put his hands on the ground and crawled backwards a few steps using his hands and feet.
Taking a closer look, it was Wen De and Qiao, both of whom were wearing clothes.
——But wearing pants, colorful beach shorts.
The surrounding environment has also turned into a summer island.
