The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 627 Bad Eyesight

Cocktails - they're a pastime of the high society, tools for socializing among the elite. Could a country bumpkin, fresh off the farm, possibly comprehend something so refined? What a joke it would be, suggesting just anyone could waltzing into the upper crust's exclusive circle by merely mixing a drink.

Ignoring Smart's remarks, Daniel simply picked up a mixing glass and started to prepare his cocktail. His movements lacked the showmanship of Catherine's, so much so that they were hardly comparable. Daniel had no fancy flourishes he just directly poured the liquors into the mixing glass, pausing to smell the aroma of each drink before adding it.

Watching Daniel pour clumsily, sometimes having to pour a second time because the first wasn't sufficient, gave Smart a huge laugh.

After a loud, piercing laugh, Smart sneered, "Country bumpkin, is this how you mix drinks?"

"Yes, I'm mixing a drink! Or are you so blind you can't see that?" Daniel shot back.

Smart laughed again at Daniel's response. Pointing at the mixing glass in Daniel's hand, he taunted, "Country bumpkin, is this your cocktail? Look, it's murky as sewer water in that glass, it's so green it stinks!"

Retard, do you know why you see the drink in this glass as green?" Daniel asked.

"It's obviously green!"

"No! It's only green in your eyes because you're looking through a green haze in your mind. That's why you see the drink as green," Daniel clarified.

He shook the mixing glass and turned to Beauty to ask, "Darling, what color is this drink?"

"It's yellow! Just as yellow as you are, you country bumpkin!"

"You like yellow, don't you?" Daniel teased, earning another punitive response from Beauty.

Ignoring her, he continued bantering with Smart, "Retard, you heard her, right? The drink in this mixing glass isn't green; it's yellow."Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Smart's eyes widened as he stared intently at the drink, trying to discern its true color.

"How can the drink be yellow? It's

with this bumpkin!" Smart protested.

"Retard, if you can't trust your own eyes, just admit it. Or why not ask these ladies what color the drink is?" Daniel suggested.

Smart turned to the five women and inquired, “What color is the drink in his mixing glass?"

"Yellow."

"It's definitely yellow."

Each of the five women

unanimously confirmed the drink was yellow, not any other color. If Beauty alone had said it was yellow, Smart might have suspected her of deceiving him. But when his gwn invited guests confirmed the same, something seemed off.

Determined to figure out the true color of the drink in Daniel's glass, and to clarify if he was truly

mistaken, Smart hurriedly sine
