148 The Elegant Queen and the Domineering King In the light red wine room with romantic lights, all the sommeliers and waiters looked over in surprise...

A waitress was holding a tray in her hand, her face pale with fright, standing in front of a cloud of dark red wine and broken glass, trembling and frightened, she couldn't speak, she just took a step back and stood there whimpering and crying .

"Lafite in [-]!" Tang Kexin screamed, and half-responsively rushed over, squatting on the glass block with a ball of wine, just about to reach out...

"Don't move!" An old man quickly grabbed Kexin's hand, and squatted seriously in front of the broken bottle of Lafite wine, looking at the only wine left in a piece of broken glass. His eyes stared at him as if looking at his long-lost lover.

Ke Xin turned her head involuntarily, and looked at the silver-haired old man, who was as solemn as a statue at the moment, staring deeply at the wine on the ground. After a long time, he felt a little sadness floating in his eyes.

Ke Xin stared dumbfounded.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I didn't do it on purpose just now. I accidentally touched the wine rack. I forgot about my sensitivity to alcohol. I'm really sorry." The waitress was so scared that she burst into tears tumbled down.

"Is it enough to apologize?" One of the sommeliers, Qiao Na, the club's top sommelier, a woman in her 30s, pointed at the bottle of red wine on the ground angrily and said, "Do you know what that is?" Is that red wine? That’s Lafite!! Lafite from [-]!! The best vintage! Few people in this world can drink it! We just came out of the kiln and are going to give the prime minister to taste the red wine!! You can knock it down even if you put it on a crystal stand? Why didn’t you say you are allergic to alcohol? Didn’t the employees who work in western restaurants and bars have already tested this? Why can you enter this place!!?”

"I'm really sorry! I'm really sorry! It's not too serious at ordinary times, but I didn't know why just now. When I walked in, I didn't know what it smelled. I felt dizzy and fell down. I'm really sorry." The waiter was too crying to speak.

"Can an apology be enough to make up for it? This is red wine that can't be bought with money! There are not many bottles left in the world! Who was the sommelier in charge of this bottle of red wine just now?" Qiao Na yelled angrily. stand up.

"Stop arguing." Lawrence finally let go of Kexin's hand slowly, looked at the wine-red light refracted by the broken glass on the ground, and said with a few sad wrinkles on his old face: "The matter It has already happened, and it is useless to pursue it..."

Tang Kexin also looked at the broken glass on the ground with distress, and said involuntarily: "It smells so good...it smells so good...I feel like I have entered a wild forest full of mist in the early morning. Beast, there is a pure little white rabbit, there is an elegant floral fragrance, and there is a faint green fragrance of grass, I even smell a special floral fragrance..."

Kexin suddenly stretched out her little hand with a surge of emotion, and held one of the broken glasses with a little wine left. She smiled a little pleasantly and said, "It smells like turpentine flowers, and after a little smell, there is also the fragrance of magnolia flowers." ? Oh my god, the level is so high, the changes are so fast, so mysterious..."

Lawrence couldn't help squatting on the ground, turned his head, and looked at the short-haired little girl in front of him, with bright eyes flashing, as if he had discovered the newest thing in the world, so moved and excited, you could even feel a surging emotion in her heart , just as the liquor was rushing out, she put down one of the glasses with a absent-minded smile, picked up the little liquor left in the other glass, put it in her nose, and said happily with bright eyes again: "Oh my God!" , A fire suddenly broke out in the forest, and the burnt leaves caused clouds of smoke. This burnt smell rushed into the forest and into time, and felt the warm smell of smoke, which settled in the body , so comfortable...and so sad..."

"You are……"

Lawrence raised his hand to prevent Jona from making a sound in surprise. He just blinked his eyes and looked at the girl in front of him who was still intoxicated in Lafite. Her eyes were slightly rosy. She wanted to reach out and pick up the largest She wanted to taste the last juice in the glass, but her hand was held by a big old hand again. She turned her head in a daze and looked at Lawrence.

Lawrence finally showed a little kindness, looked at Kexin, and said softly: "Don't taste the red wine that has not been decanted, because you will misunderstand its taste... The red wine that has been brewed for decades has absorbed the richness of Bordeaux. In the 82 years, the most beautiful sunshine and rain... the taste you just smelled is not easy, so don't taste it casually, keep it with the last bit of respect."

Tang Kexin looked deeply at Lawrence, the eyes of this old man, showing an extremely sad expression, he planned to open this bottle of [-] Lafite tonight, on such a festive day for the Asian Group, and put dozens of years of Lafite hidden in the wine barrel With all the efforts of the winemaker, the top-quality red wine of the world's first-class winery, let it play its handed down taste like the legendary queen...

A deep sigh came.

Everyone looked at Lawrence in silence, at the old man who had loved red wine all his life, with dark eyes, sighed sadly, and said, "Bring me the box..."

Jona immediately turned around and handed an old wooden box to Lawrence. Lawrence took the wooden box, carefully opened the small door, took out a white handkerchief, picked up the glass one by one, and put them in the box. In the wooden box, while picking it up, I looked at the broken dark red glass with nostalgia...

"Mr. Lawrence, be careful, I'll do it!" Jona also stepped forward distressedly, just about to help.

"No. This matter is my fault..." Lawrence picked up the glass bit by bit, and smelled the thousands of scents of Lafite in [-], which evaporated layer upon layer in this wine room, full of sadness and joy. heavy.

Everyone calmed down and looked at him.

Lawrence picked up the broken glass bit by bit before finally saying, "You are..."

Tang Kexin was still intoxicated by Lawrence's sadness just now, and her own eyes were a little red. Hearing what Lawrence said, she hadn't realized it yet, and she was still watching him pick up broken glass...

Lawrence finally stopped what he was doing, raised his head slowly, looked at this cute elf girl with short hair, regained his energy, and asked with a smile, "Little girl, who are you? What are you doing here?"

Only at this moment did Tang Kexin raise her head in embarrassment, looked at Lawrence and said, "I...I...I'm a bar employee at the Racecourse Club. The minister asked me to look over the wine list for you, and then please sign it yourself."

Lawrence is not only a top sommelier, but also the head of beverages for the entire Asian group. In such a large banquet, he must sign his name before the bar will serve wine to the banquet.

Lawrence nodded slightly when he heard this sentence, and looked at Kexin with a little doubt in his deep old eyes, and said, "You... know red wine?"

"I just like it, but I don't dare to understand it... There are thousands of red wines. Every day, they have different tastes depending on the climate, the mood of the characters, and the food. I dare not understand..." Tang Kexin said modestly.

Lawrence smiled for a while, looked at the girl's sincere attitude and serious expression, and asked again: "You walked in just now and just poured the wine, how did you know that this is Lafite from [-]?"

Tang Kexin blushed and said, "I saw the wine bottle."

Hearing this, Lawrence smiled slowly, and the wrinkles on his face became kind and joyful. Slowly, he said: "In this era, there are too many pompous people. If you are as honest as you, you don't want to be honest." There are fewer people who show themselves in front of me."

Tang Kexin didn't dare to speak, she lowered her head, and saw that there was still a small piece of glass left, which was actually full of foam, so she immediately stretched out her hand, lightly picked up the piece of glass and put it into the wooden box.

"Give me the wine list." Lawrence put away the wooden box with a smile and handed it to a sommelier before standing up and saying.

"Yes." Kexin immediately took out the wine list from her pocket, unfolded it, and handed it to Lawrence.

Lawrence took it with a smile, took out the glasses from his suit pocket, put them on, and frowned slightly, while looking at the wine list, he ordered: "Clean up the broken glass on the floor, don't use the vacuum cleaner, lift the carpet, use Wipe it with a towel, so as not to let the machine enter the wine room and affect the indoor temperature."

"Yes!" After the sommelier answered, he immediately walked out with the girl who knocked down the glass of wine just now, ordered the manager to pick up the person, and then picked up the walkie-talkie to notify the housekeeping department to clean up the scene.

Lawrence took the wine list and walked slowly into another wine room. The light inside the wine room was darker, with a strong smell of oak. When Tang Kexin couldn't help but follow in, she could feel the old aroma, as if she was raising wine As if, she stared wide-eyed, looking at the bottles of precious red wine in front of her, placed horizontally in the wine rack, or placed in a special wine box, each place is just lit up with tiny lights, as if Startled one of the bottles of red wine...

Ke Xin couldn't help walking towards a certain wine rack excitedly, and unexpectedly saw the 1970 Latour, and she laughed excitedly.

While looking at the wine list, Lawrence raised his head slightly to look at Kexin. He didn't remind the girl that she was not allowed to enter this place. He raised his head slowly, looked at Kexin, and asked softly, "Do you know her?" This bottle of red wine?"

"Yeah!" Kexin nodded quickly, looked at the precious bottle of Lafite in the wine rack with a smile, and said happily: "This is the 1970 Latour red wine. The best vintage of the Latour winery is 1945, 1949, 1961, 1970, 1982, 2000 and 2003... The red wines of Château Latour have a very rich sense of layering, and the strong and vigorous feeling makes ordinary sommeliers unable to control them. is an elegant queen, then Latour is a domineering king."

Lawrence looked at Kexin with a little surprised smile in his eyes.
