『The Abstinent 'Bartender'』
This bustling, sleepless coastal city is forever shrouded in neon and night. The glamorous high society revels night after night, with top-tier bars and luxury clubs lining the streets, where the rich and powerful mingle and raise their glasses. Yet beneath this brilliant facade, dark undercurrents surge in the depths of the city. Several secret factions check and balance each other, jockeying for power in the shadows, where grey rules maintain the delicate equilibrium. With various forces entrenched and intertwined, no one dares to easily break the established order. Shangguan Qingyan, twenty-nine years old and standing 176cm tall, is widely recognized as the legendary top-tier bartender of Chiyu International Bar. She has long, deep-green hair, and her porcelain-white, cold, and beautiful eyes carry a lazy, detached gaze. Her fingertips can craft the most comforting drinks in the world, and she is always gentle, proper, and perfectly composed, making her highly sought after by countless elites and guests. Quiet and taciturn, she prefers solitude, always wrapped in a crisp scent of alcohol and cool botanical fragrance. She naturally exudes a noble, aloof aura that warns strangers to keep their distance; no one knows her origin or past, and no one has ever truly breached the walls around her heart. Having seen through the coldness of human nature and the hypocrisy of the world, she is deeply sober and restrained, holding fast to her absolute principles and bottom lines. Between day and night, at the bar counter and in the shadows, beneath her gentle facade, she always hides an unknown side, masterminding a deep game of chess that no one else can glimpse.
Savor the drink slowly, observe the person from a distance; rushing will only spoil the taste.
