Chapter 114: To each his own heart

At the same time, in the crown of the magic capital, it was a different scene. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Wearing a goose-yellow cheongsam and a bun, Yue Shuluo is tying an apron. While observing Jiang Ruli's movements, she silently memorized the steps in her heart.

Jiang Ruli's movements are very skillful. He prepares a glass of Espresso, then pours the refrigerated milk into the tank and beats it with a steam wand, adjusting the height of the tank until the velvety milk foam is perfect.

"You can start with the heart shape, leaves and peach hearts are the most basic patterns of latte art, you learn these two, and the rest can be practiced and played slowly. Jiang Ruli's gentle appearance was like teaching a little girl.

Yue Shuluo smiled slightly, "Can you let me try? You've been talking for more than half an hour." ”

Jiang Ruli said embarrassedly, "Really? Then you can come by yourself." ”

Yue Shuluo smiled, "Are you worried that I will waste ingredients?"

"How come?" Jiang Ruli's face was a little hot, "When I first started learning, I did a lot of bad work, probably wasting ten pounds of beans, and a lot of cartons of milk. ”

"Well, I'll try to waste only half of what you use. Yue Shuluo said with a smile, "If I learn it too quickly, will you feel so shameless?"

"No, it won't. I'll be glad you're a quick learner. Jiang Ruli didn't dare to look at Yue Shuluo's smiling face, he always felt that his head was fluttering and dizzy.

"Actually, I used to want to learn latte art. When I was working at a restaurant, I heard from a chef who worked in a café that one of the more economical ways to practice was to use dish soap. He said that you can pour dish soap into the water to make a foam, and then pour the foam into the soy sauce to imitate latte art. Yue Shuluo continued to move while speaking.

"If it had been before, I would have considered using this method. Jiang Ruli said with a smile, "But Master Hou only values taste, and doesn't care how much material I spend on practice." ”

"Let me guess. Yue Shuluo glanced at Jiang Ruli, "Before you met Master Hou, you were a scholar, as long as you have a scholarship, it will definitely fall into your pocket, right?"

These words were not polite, but Yue Shuluo said it with a smile, and Jiang Ruli didn't want to be angry anyway. The big eyes of the moon are smiling delicately, like a pool of spring water that has just been wrinkled by the wind, and the corners of her small mouth are slightly upturned, rippling with infinite tenderness, just like the roses blooming by the crown flower gallery.

"Spring flowers and autumn moons. Jiang Ruli remembered this idiom for some reason. Although he knew that the original meaning of the word was not so, the demeanor of the beautiful woman in front of him really broke his heart, just like seeing the delicate flowers of the warm spring and the bright moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was both bright and bright, and graceful and elegant.

Jiang Ruli came back to his senses, walked to the edge of a chair and sat down, and then smiled awkwardly, "I used to be very poor, and I almost couldn't afford to pay for college. ”

Yue Shuluo brewed coffee and began to try to froth milk, she lowered her head, so she couldn't see Jiang Ruli's expression, "That's because your major is more expensive, right? I seem to remember that you studied two majors?"

"Clinical medicine, but also psychology. ”

"Then you can be considered a combination of internal and external training. Tsukilo still didn't look up, and a lock of shredded hair slipped out of her bun and hung down on her ivory face.

Jiang Ruli wanted to help Yue Shuluo fix her hair, but he hesitated for a while. Although Yue Shuluo showed some appreciation for him, he didn't dare to be too rash, in case he left the other party with the impression of being "lustful and frivolous", it would be over. Thinking like this, he didn't dare to act rashly.

"Nerd, give me my hair. Yue Shuluo's words almost frightened Jiang Ruli to fall off the chair, and she actually guessed Jiang Ruli's mind as if she had a mind reading skill.

Jiang Ruli walked over tremblingly, his arms stretched like a ruler, and he stiffened his movements to help Yue Shuluo pin his broken hair behind his ears. And when he accidentally touched Yueshuluo's slightly cold ears, his face turned red.

Fortunately, Yue Shuluo didn't turn her head to look at him. Jiang Ruli secretly scolded himself in his heart for being useless: it's not that he hasn't been in love, why does he act like a clumsy little boy?

"When you used to study, it must have been very hard. I remember you got your Ph.D. at 21, that's amazing!" she walked over to the pool and poured out the cup of coffee.

"Fortunately, I like to read, and it's not too hard. Jiang Ruli returned to the chair and sat down, "There are even harder students among my classmates, who only sleep three or four hours a day, which is admirable." ”

"Hey, I just reacted, you're only 22 years old now?" Yue Shuluo suddenly raised her head, "Wow, you're three years younger than me." ”

Jiang Ruli was embarrassed, "I always thought you were younger than me, both physically and psychologically. ”

This sentence proves that I am older than you. Yue Shuluo stretched slightly, "What's the matter?

This sentence was so explicit that Jiang Ruli didn't know how to answer it at all.

"Mind I also understand that most women like men who are older than themselves. Tsukishuluo came to a brisk conclusion. This made Jiang Ruli feel even more awkward, "I didn't mean that. ”

But Yue Shuluo just smiled and didn't continue the topic, "You are so young and so talented, when Hou Ye met you back then, he must have praised you." ”

"Not really, I wasn't in college at the time, so I was probably just a kid in his eyes. Jiang Ruli explained, "Master Hou is really good to me, and I am very grateful to him." ”

"I feel the same way. Yue Shuluo said, "However, I think Master Hou may not care if we repay the favor or not." He looked like a man who didn't want to repay his kindness. ”

"Yes. Jiang Ruli nodded in agreement, "That's why Z2 and E1 will be dead set on Hou Ye, because Hou Ye is the kind of good person who pays without asking for anything in return." ”

"Speaking of which, I think of one thing. Yue Shuluo raised her head, her primrose-colored eyes glittering with a charming glow in the afternoon sun, "I was worried at first that Master Hou would change my name, for fear that he would give me a name like Z2. ”

Jiang Ruli laughed, "Master Hou won't change your name, and you're not poker-men." Besides, you see, I haven't changed it either. ”

"I can't compare with you, you are a top student, Master Hou values you very much, I am just a servant. Yueshuluo's expression was calm, without a hint of mockery.

"You're not a servant, I think Master Hou trusts you very much. He wasn't like that to women before. As soon as the words came out, Jiang Ruli secretly complained: Oh no, I missed my mouth.

Fortunately, Yue Shuluo didn't seem to listen to this, and she began to toss the coffee machine again.

"However, I still don't understand, why does Master Hou use English letters to name them?"

"I don't know. Jiang Ruli replied, "It's probably the strange taste of the Hou Ye." He saw a disappointed look on Yue's face, and he suddenly felt unhappy. He thought for a moment and added, "But I know one thing, Z2 was met by Hou Ye in Zagreb. ”

"Are you talking about Zagreb, the capital of Croatia?"

"That's it. In addition, E1 was encountered by Hou Ye in Onna, Italy. Jiang Ruli saw that Yue Shuluo seemed to be very curious, so he continued: "Master Hou didn't say anything about the naming rules, I speculated based on these coincidences, perhaps, the place where he first met these people was the inspiration for his name." ”

"Initials, really?" Tsuki's big eyes flickered, like a nimble and cute little fish swimming in the clear water.

Jiang Ruli unconsciously looked away, "It should be." ”

"So, where did K1 and Hou Ye meet?"

Jiang Ruli was stunned for a moment, he clearly understood that this could not be said.

"K1 is British-Chinese, right? Could it be that he and Hou Ye met in the UK?" Yue Shuluo guessed as he brewed coffee.

"It seems like yes. ”

"Is there a city in the UK with the initials K?" Jiang Ruli asked coldly, and suddenly felt at a loss.

"Uh, I think about it......"

Yue Shuluo smiled softly, "Idiot, are you planning to lie to me?"

"No!" Jiang Ruli immediately said in a panic, "I'm recalling!" He thought quickly, even if it was Hancheng, it shouldn't matter, after all, Wan Guohou had been to Hancheng and developed a hot spring. He thought again that Yue Shuluo was now Wan Guohou's housekeeper, and it didn't hurt for her to know some things.

"It's Hancheng. Jiang Ruli said hesitantly.

"Is that Hancheng close to Burma?" Tsuki's eyes widened. "It's so close to me, right next door to my hometown. I'm from Twenty County. ”

“...... Yes. Jiang Ruli was very happy to hear her take the initiative to introduce her hometown, "Then you should be able to understand Hancheng dialect?"

A hint of shame appeared on Yue Shuluo's face, "I left Twenty County at a very young age, and I really don't understand." She made a cup of coffee and asked, "But, according to pinyin, shouldn't Hancheng start with H?"

Jiang Ruli shook his head, "I know, you mean to say Hancheng-City, right? Because there are two Korean cities in the country. "I see, I learned. Thank you, teacher!" Yue Shuluo mischievously made a saluting pose.

Jiang Ruli was amused by her, "I don't usually accept apprentices." ”

"How can this be?" Yue Shuluo suddenly sighed, "It's so annoying." How to make the foam of coffee fat, I always feel that something is wrong. ”

"I'll teach you. Jiang Ruli immediately threw what he had just said to the clouds, "The amount of coffee fat foam is not only related to the beans themselves, but also related to packing. ”

He walked up to Yue Shuluo and motioned for Yue Shuluo to pay attention to his gestures, "The action of putting the coffee powder into a small container and pressing it again is very important, you need to practice so that you can find the feel." This action is packing. In short, the tighter you press, the easier it is to extract the coffee fat, but if you press too tightly, the coffee may not flow. ”

Yue Shuluo suddenly realized, "I understand, thank you teacher, the teacher is so good." ”

"Don't call me a fool now?" Jiang Ruli couldn't help but tease her when he saw her smile sweetly.

"You didn't remind me to forget, nerd!"

Jiang Ruli was stunned, "It's always unfair that you call me a nerd, and I have to think of a name for you." ”

"Whatever you want, I won't refuse to admit your name anyway. Yue Shuluo said with a smile.

"Yes, I'll call you a fool!" Jiang Ruli slapped his palm lightly, "Fool, little fool!"

"Where am I stupid?" Yue Shuluo cried and laughed, "I won't agree." ”

"You're a little fool, so decided. Jiang Ruli saw an aggrieved expression on Yue Shuluo's bright face, and couldn't help but feel good.

"If you call again, I'll splash you with coffee!"

"Okay, anyway, if you dirty the house, you have to arrange someone to clean it up!" Jiang Ruli said that he didn't care, but his eyes were always paying attention to her, in case she really turned her face, she was so mentally prepared.

Yue Shuluo looked at Jiang Ruli blankly, suddenly put down the things in her hand, she walked to the edge of the sofa and sat down angrily. Then, she folded her arms on her knees and buried her face in them.

Jiang Ruli was taken aback, he didn't expect the other party to turn his face so quickly.

He rushed over in a few steps and sat down next to Yueshuluo, "Don't be like this, I'm joking." ”

Yue Shuluo didn't say a word, and she didn't move.

"I'm really kidding. I'm sorry!" Jiang Ruli apologized in a low voice, feeling a burst of discomfort in his heart.

"What are you two doing?" K1's loud voice suddenly sounded, almost making Jiang Ruli jump in fright. "Manager Yue?" K1 walked to the front of the sofa, and Yue Shuluo raised her head, "I'm fine, I'm learning how to make latte art from Dr. Jiang." ”

K1 looked at the two suspiciously, Yue Shuluo's expression was calm, but Jiang Ruli's face was slightly red.

"Doctor Jiang, come out for a while, I have something to look for you. ”

Jiang Ruli looked at Yue Shuluo, who had regained his previous composure.

"I was kidding, don't take it to heart. She actually persuaded Jiang Ruli in turn, "You go and get busy, I'm going to do something else in a while, I'll ask you for advice another day, okay?"

Looking at her open eyes without a trace of distraction, Jiang Ruli suddenly felt a little embarrassed, he just wanted to get out of here quickly, "Okay." No problem. ”

When K1 and Jiang Ruli left the room, K1 couldn't wait to say, "How much do you know about leukemia?"

Jiang Ruli looked at him in surprise, "How could you be interested in this?"

"You don't care about this, it's not a bad thing for Hou Ye. I have a friend who is sick and I would like to consult. K1 scratched his head and said with a slurrel.

Jiang Ruli glanced at him suspiciously, "You have to divide the situation." There are many types of leukemia, and there are multiple subtypes of each type. For example, acute and chronic are not the same, there is also a big difference between lymph and myeloid lines, and M3 and M2 are not the same. ”

K1 slumped his shoulders in frustration, "Is that complicated?"

"Didn't you ask your friend what kind of situation it was?"

"I don't know, it seems to be the more serious kind?" K1 couldn't help but sigh when he thought of Gao Xiangqi's face.

"Does his family know?"

"Hmm. ”

"Then don't worry about it. His family will help him think about these issues, and you can't help him as a friend, but at most you can cheer him on and visit him when he is doing well. Jiang Ruli comforted K1, who nodded slightly.

The two walked in silence for a while. Just when Jiang Ruli was about to say that he was going back to the room, K1 suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at him, and said something that surprised him, "Hou Ye is not very ordinary to Manager Yue, I advise you, it's best not to rob women with Hou Ye." ”
