"Orange, you really don't know my mother too well, if I obediently go through the whole process of the blind date today, she must think that I and the other party are eye-to-eye, and then, it's a long tug-of-war, then I'll go crazy."

Lin Zi shuddered at the thought of his future days that might appear.

"So, help me think about it, is there any way to not lose decency, but also make the other party retreat."

"Xiaozi, you're stumped on me, I don't have much experience."

"What then?"

Lin Zi was a little anxious.

"Otherwise, you just run away, it's a big deal that you don't want that ticket."

"Let me tell you, if I really run away, this ticket will be invalidated, and I will be invalidated."

"Then do you want to .......?"

Lin Zi was listening to the orange talking, and Wang Xiao's voice came from outside the door.

"Xiao Zi, are you there?"

"In, in."

"That's good, I saw that you went to the bathroom for so long and didn't come back, I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I chased after you, don't blame me for being abrupt."

Wang Xiao stood at the door of the bathroom, a little overwhelmed, after all, standing at the door of the women's toilet, shouting through the door, even if this was his own home's territory, he couldn't help but feel very embarrassed.

"No, no, that's something I can understand."

Lin Zi replied loudly to Wang Xiao outside the door.

"Okay, I'll not tell you, I've been in the bathroom for too long, people have already come to me, and if I stay any longer, I really think something happened to me in the bathroom."

"Then you, take care of it yourself, but can you come back to Beijing tonight?"

Orange couldn't help but be a little worried.

"Don't worry, you can."

As he spoke, Lin Zi hung up the phone, and was just about to walk out of the door, thinking about it, and pressing the flush button. Then he walked out the door, stood in front of the mirror, straightened his makeup, and walked out of the bathroom.

"I'm sorry, but you still came to me."

Lin Zi looked at Wang Xiao and said embarrassedly.

"It's okay if you're okay, I'll do your American style without sugar, then let's go over."

"yes, okay."

Lin Zi agreed.

Then, he followed Wang Xiao and walked back.

"Oh, Xiaozi, this is the American style I specially made for you, you can taste it and see if it is different."

As he spoke, Wang Xiao handed a cup of finished coffee to Lin Zi.

Lin Zi took it from Wang Xiao's hand, took a sip, and praised: "Sure enough, I grind it with my own hands, which is different from what I sell outside." ”

Wang Xiao saw Lin Zi's praising expression, and took a sip of coffee happily, then put the coffee cup back into the tray, and then put it on the table with the tray.

"I can't think of it."

Wang Xiao watched Lin Zi drink American style one by one, and said with a smile.

"Huh? What to think of. ”

When Lin Zi heard Wang Xiao's words, he couldn't help but look at Wang Xiao suspiciously and asked.

"I can't imagine that girls nowadays don't like sweet coffee, but like American-style coffee, without sugar, I really rarely see it."

Wang Xiao replied with a smile.

"Oh? Is it? ”

"Indeed, even in foreign countries, drinking American style without adding any sugar is really rare in girls of Xiaozi's age. I can venture to ask, why does Xiao Zi like to drink American style so much, or the unsweetened kind. ”

"Isn't the unsweetened American style more mellow and classic of coffee?"

Lin Zi asked with a smile.

"Hahaha, what Xiao Zi said is right, it's just that you don't feel bitter?"

"When I was a child, I felt bitter, but now that I'm older, I'm used to the taste."

Lin Zi replied lightly.

"As a child? Did Xiao Zi start drinking American style when she was a child? ”

Wang Xiao was even more curious about Lin Zi's affairs.

"When I was a child, when other children were arguing for a drink, my mother would give me a cup of coffee, and I still remember the first time I drank it when I was a child, I vomited and cried and cried for candy, but my mother said that I had to drink it before I could eat sugar, and that was the first time I drank Americano, and my impression was very bad."

"In this way, I can ask, why has Aunt Lin let you drink coffee since she was a child, isn't it not good for children to drink coffee?"

"My mother told me at that time that if you suffer a little more now, you can have smooth sailing in the future. The mouth is bitter, and when I encounter more bitter things in the future, I feel that it is not so bitter in my heart. ”

After Lin Zi finished speaking, he couldn't help but smile to himself, and said to Wang Xiao: "Isn't it nonsense, but at first glance, it feels quite reasonable." ”

"Seems to be true."

"It's a lot of nonsense, but I still feel that my life is carefree and smooth sailing, and it always has something to do with the bitter coffee I used to drink. When I think about it, I don't hate the smell at all, and besides, I've gotten used to it after all these years, and now if I were to drink those mocha or cappuccinos or whatever, it would be too sweet. ”

"You're a funny girl."

Wang Xiao smiled at Lin Zi.

"What about you?"

Lin Zi gestured to Wang Xiao with his chin and said to the cup.

"What am I?"

Wang Xiao looked at Lin Zi and asked.

"Why do you like to drink caramel macchiato, such a sweet coffee, in my impression, shouldn't all returnee students like you have a cup of American in their hands, and then open and close their mouths are ABC?"

"Hahaha, aren't you afraid of offending the international students by saying this?"

Wang Xiao listened to Lin Zi's words and couldn't help laughing.

"Will it?"

"When you say this, I sound like you're hacking our international students."

"I'm just telling the truth, because most of the people around me are like that."

"So, I'm different to Xiao Zi?"

"Forget it, so why do you like caramel macchiato so much?"

"Well, I don't pay so much attention to it, I just like this sweet and greasy taste, so it seems that I am really different from you. If it is according to Xiao Zi's life theory on coffee just now, then I should be, life is a little hard, and I hope that there can be more sweetness in my mouth. ”

"You're really good at drawing inferences."

"Where, where."

"King, King......"

"Xiao, Wang Xiao."

"Wang, Xiao, Wang Xiao, you are not as boring as I imagined."

Lin Zi looked at Wang Xiao and said.

"Boring? Do you think I'm a boring person? ”

"I heard my mother always say that the son of Aunt Wang's family is talented and polite, and then when I saw you for the first time today, I thought you were the kind of person who didn't smile, a serious person, I didn't expect that you would also laugh."

"Is that impression of me getting better or worse?"

"Well, naturally, it's changed for the better."

"Then we ......"

"I mean, we can be friends."

Lin Zi immediately interrupted Wang Xiao's words and said.

"Haha, what is Xiao Zi nervous about?"

Wang Xiao looked at Lin Zi and smiled.

"Nervous? No, what can I be nervous about? ”

Lin Zi pretended to be calm and smiled and said.

"Then why did you interrupt me in such a hurry?"

"I'm just, I'm ......"

"Haha, actually, I just wanted to say that we had a very speculative conversation and could be friends. It's just that Aunt Lin and my mother don't just want us to be friends. ”

After speaking, Wang Xiao gestured to Lin Zi in the direction of his head.

Lin Zi looked in the direction indicated by Wang Xiao with a puzzled expression, and found that his mother and Aunt Wang were hiding behind the potted plants, glancing at his place intentionally or unintentionally, and hiding his face and snickering from time to time.

It seems that they are pretending to go somewhere else, but in fact they have been watching themselves here.

Thinking of this, Lin Zi couldn't help but shake his head, picked up the coffee in his hand and drank it all.

"It seems that my mother and Aunt Lin are deliberately trying to match us."

Wang Xiao spread his hands at Lin Zi a little helplessly.

"You say, why do these elders like to be matchmakers so much?"

Lin Zi looked at Wang Xiao and asked.

"Probably because they want their children to be happy."

Wang Xiao replied.

"Happiness? What is happiness? Is this happiness to impose on their children what they think is good? ”

"Maybe, aren't children the continuation of their parents' lives?"

"However, children are also human beings, and they also have the right to pursue their own happiness, why do you have to let your elders arrange everything for you, what is the difference between this and the previous feudal society, shouldn't you advocate freedom of marriage and love now?"

The more Lin Zi spoke, the more excited he became.

Wang Xiao couldn't help laughing when he saw Lin Zi becoming more and more excited, and then comforted: "Why is Xiao Zi so excited about this topic?" Could it be that he has suffered from it? ”

"Actually, I, alas, forget it, since we are friends now, then I will tell you the truth, but don't be unhappy, I don't mean to target you."

Lin Zi explained to Wang Xiao.

"Of course not, in fact, I can also understand your feelings, let me tell you quietly, in fact, this is the third banquet I have attended in China."

Wang Xiao leaned into Lin Zi's ear and whispered.

"The third time?"

When Lin Zi heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Yes, I've only been home for two weeks, and I've been to this banquet three times in a row, and my mom is also very energetic."

"Then you, haven't you thought about resisting?"

Lin Zi couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Rebellion? It's rare for me to come back once, if this is the case, if it can make my mother happy, then let her go, anyway, for me, there is no loss, right, not to mention, if I resist, how can I know Xiaozi You, can talk to me so closely, right? ”

Wang Xiao said and smiled at Lin Zi.

"In this way, it seems that my mother is a little more kind, but she is too confusing to do things, and if she is not careful, she will fall into the pit she dug for herself."

Lin Zi shook his head and sighed.

"You haven't said anything about you yet, but I'm listening."

Wang Xiao looked at Lin Zi and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. Take a hundred plating, and read the latest chapter of "The Centripetal Direction of the Star: The Way Home, Claw Bookstore" for the first time.
