Chapter 146 The whole internet is feeling sorry for Xiao Lanling



With the emergence of "The Robin," more and more people have come to know about cocktails.

Bei Chen pressed his advantage!

Take 45ml of tequila, 15ml of dry miso, 15ml of sweet miso, Campari bitters, and then add two drops of bitters. Pour into a shaker and shake.

After shaking well, filter out the wine and garnish with grapefruit peel.

Thus, a Rosita cocktail is completed.

The bitterness of Campari accentuates the aroma of agave.

It's like a cloud of smoke swirling in your mouth, bittersweet yet fragrant, and quite satisfying to drink.

For those who enjoy the slightly bitter taste of tequila, this is definitely an excellent choice.

This liquor has once again won over a group of tequila enthusiasts.

However, Bei Chen didn't stop there. He took out all the tequila cocktails he had made before, such as "Tequila Sunrise," "Margaret," "Icebreaker," "Long Island Iced Tea," and "Beloved."

Each one is unique, with its own distinct taste, making them suitable for a wide range of people.

You may not like "The Robin," but can you resist "Tequila Sunrise" or "Long Island Iced Tea"?

And so, the appearance of these eight wines completely ignited the atmosphere at the event.

Cocktails have been remembered and are of great interest to numerous restaurants, workshops, sommeliers, and hundreds of millions of netizens.

From this moment on, cocktails officially took off on the international stage!

In the following period, the Hive Bar, located in the land of cacti, experienced a surge in popularity.

It's always packed because only the Hive Bar has cocktails.

For wine lovers, it is absolutely indispensable.

Of course, Lu Jiuning plans to sell the cocktails abroad for two to three times the price.

There's absolutely no problem with exploiting foreigners.

But scarcity increases value, and wealthy people don't care about the money; they only care about the quality of the cocktail.

This also allowed Bei Chen and Lu Jiuning to quickly accumulate initial wealth.

The second wave was the birth of bottled wine.

After settling things at the Beehive Bar in the Cactus Kingdom, the two hurriedly returned home...

...

Kyushu!

The fact that Bei Chen and Lu Jiuning removed their masks one after another caused a huge shock among netizens.

The headlines on all major platforms revolve around:

[Little Lanling is back!]

[Shocking! The masked man is actually Xiao Lanling!]

[...]

Five out of the ten trending topics were about Bei Chen.

Because of this popularity, the seven new songs performed at the Tequila Music Festival climbed the charts at an alarming rate.

Situ Hailing's top spot on the leaderboard was also severely overtaken.

At the same time, an article by Fengyueke also went viral:

Like many others, I gradually fell into the Mr. Mask fandom starting with "Blue Lotus" and the opera-style songs.

Why did Mr. Mask become so popular?

Please allow me to explain in detail.

After learning that Mr. Mask was actually Xiao Lanling, everyone's first impression was surprise and shock.

But I don't feel that way, and I feel sorry for them.

The first song released by Mr. Mask was "Ugly Monster"!

When the song was released, it was said to be written for a girl, but wasn't it also written for himself?

That's right, Xiao Lanling was in a car accident back then, and because the area of ​​facial burns was too large, it was difficult for her to fully recover.

From my dream girl Xiao Lanling to retiring from the entertainment industry, if I were in her shoes, I might never have recovered.

Only someone like Xiao Lanling, who experienced such a dramatic fall from heaven to hell, could have given birth to the song "Ugly Monster".

The second song is titled "Rose Boy".

This is written for the bullied boy, and also for myself who was cyberbullied.

The third song is titled "I Once Thought of Ending It All".

Yes, we've all thought about suicide when things aren't going well in our daily lives.

How could Xiao Lanling not have thought of this when she encountered such a mess?

He's human too; he can get depressed and have suicidal thoughts.

This led to the creation of this song, reflecting the speaker's desire to save others suffering from depression while simultaneously experiencing it himself.

Then came the later book, "The World Won't Collapse Easily".

This is also a belief of Xiao Lanling, the reason that has always supported him to keep going.

Then came "Suddenly Missing You".

Xiao Lanling wasn't thinking about her relatives and friends, but rather about her former self.

Then came the sacred "Blue Lotus," marking the moment when Xiao Lanling truly emerged from depression.

I guess that was also the time when Xiao Lanling's face was repaired.

Following that, there was traditional Chinese style, opera singing, instrumental music, and ancient melodies...

This all stems from Xiao Lanling's journey after she emerged from her past and began creating her own music, no longer confined to her former self.

So all in all, the reason why Xiao Lanling, or rather Mr. Mask, became popular is not because of luck, but because of his experiences...

...

This article, despite being just speculation by a gossipmonger, made netizens feel that it was probably true.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?

Wow, Fengyueke's analysis is incredibly insightful!

[Sobbing, I'm crying so hard. I can't even imagine how Xiao Lanling has survived these past five years.]

[The idea that someone who is depressed themselves is also thinking about helping other people suffering from depression—that's so well-written!]

[Writing songs based on one's own experiences—no wonder every single one is so moving and relatable!]

Looking back now, Xiao Lanling was truly remarkable. Upon learning that he could no longer appear on screen, he quietly began to study music and wine, eventually opening up a whole new world for himself.
