Chapter 14: The Familiarity of Coffee

"Fallen leaves? Why do you like to see the leaves fall in summer? ”

Liu Yuehan didn't understand this girl's interest, in this sunny season, the leaves would only fall due to this external force when they were blown by the wind.

The girl was silent, and there was no expression on her face. Although she is kind and beautiful, she has a feeling of rejection thousands of miles away.

"I'm leaving, if I stay any longer, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it." The girl said, turning her head to look at the two of them, waving her hand gently, and then she left no longer care about the two of them.

At this moment, a fallen leaf fell right where she had just stood. As the green leaves fell to the ground, I don't know if I was wrong, Xiao Chen actually felt that for a moment, the fallen leaves seemed to be glowing!

"Who is that girl? Does this fallen leaf have any significance......" On the way to leave the inexplicable two, Xiao Chen's heart kept thinking about this question. Because he doesn't have the ability to speak, he doesn't have to be distracted to say anything to others, and he has a lot of time to think about such things in his head.

"It's a restaurant I come to a lot, so let's eat here at noon."

Liu Yuehan's voice pulled Xiao Chen's thoughts back to reality, and then he realized that they had walked back to the vicinity of the shopping street at some point, and this morning time had disappeared without a trace between walks.

After secretly sighing that time flies so fast, Xiao Chen has no opinion on Liu Yuehan's decision.

The two of them walked into the store. It's one of the few cafes in the town, with a quaint interior and a faint aroma of coffee beans wafting through it, making everyone feel refreshed. Unknown light music is played in the surrounding speakers, and the volume is not very loud, so it is not noisy, and at the same time, it also soothes the atmosphere of the whole store.

Although Xiao Chen didn't know what to comment on, the environment here still made him feel comfortable from the bottom of his heart.

"Well, it's good here!"

Seeing the expression on Xiao Chen's face, Liu Yuehan looked proud. Matching this elegant environment, the consumption here is much higher than that of other stores, which is a real threshold, and it can be regarded as helping the store eliminate some customers who are "bold and bold" and dislike the current world prices are too expensive. Those who spend here are generally guests in the town who have a certain taste, spending power, and have free time.

"Welcome, Miss Liu."

A waiter greeted him, obviously recognizing Liu Yuehan's identity, and the professional smile on his face and professional service demeanor, like every clerk, are the point that this café is liked by the high-end people in the town.

Led Xiao Chen and the two to a private seat for two, the waiter took the menu, handed it to the two, and at the same time, asked Liu Yuehan, "Is Miss Liu still the old rules?" ”

"Hmm." Liu Yuehan nodded, "It's good to serve him the same one, and give me an extra cup of strawberry sundae fifteen minutes after the meal." ”

"Okay, please wait." The waiter respectfully replied, then turned and left for the bar. After a while, at the position of the bar, there was a faint smell of coffee.

Xiao Chen, who was sitting in his seat, looked at the café around, and in his heart, for no reason, an emotion that was both familiar and liked.

"Excuse me, it's your black pepper beef omelet rice, and squeezed Brazilian coffee, and the strawberry sundae you asked for will be delivered to you in fifteen minutes." After a while, the waiter just now served the "old rules" in Liu Yuehan's mouth, that is, their lunch today.

The omelet rice on the plate in front of Xiao Chen's eyes, the bulging shape gives people a feeling of being very large, the golden egg skin can't see the contents inside, and the pattern drawn on it with tomato sauce is particularly beautiful. Xiao Chen couldn't smell the aroma of this omelet rice, because his nose was already filled with the aroma of the cup of pure black coffee in front of him.

Looking at the coffee cup with some doubts, although it was mellow, it always felt that it would not taste too good, and Xiao Chen couldn't understand what kind of drink it was.

"It's Brazilian coffee, if you drink it, you might like it inexplicably." Liu Yuehan looked at Xiao Chen's stunned appearance and encouraged.

Nodding, Xiao Chen raised the coffee to his lips, and the aroma in the cup was even more tangy, just smelling it, it was extremely comfortable.

However, just as he was bewildered by the aroma, and after taking a sip, his brows instantly furrowed, and his face showed an expression that he wanted to spit out what was in his mouth but did not dare to spit it out.

"It's bitter! This thing...... Is it something so bitter that she likes to drink? Xiao Chen shouted in his heart, and then pretended to be calm and put down the coffee cup, not wanting to touch it anymore.

"Hehe......" Liu Yuehan chuckled, took a few sugar cubes, and then put one in Xiao Chen's cup, then she cracked the second sugar cube in half, and then put that half into his cup as well.

"That's fine, taste it slowly, I thought you'd like it." Liu Yuehan withdrew her hand and said with a smile.

Listening to her words, Xiao Chen put the coffee to his lips again and took a sip slowly.

The coffee started on the tip of his tongue and ran down his throat after a while of running in his mouth. At this time, he felt that although the coffee was bitter, it had a natural aroma like grass, and the bitterness was accompanied by a slight sourness, which became much more palatable under the harmony of one and a half sugars. Although it didn't mean that he wanted to drink it all in one sip like juice, the fragrance and bitterness that flowed into his mouth every time made him feel calm.

Seeing his soothing brow, Liu Yuehan smiled, and then put two and a half sugar cubes in her own cup.

"Well, but I used to have a very important friend, and he liked to drink coffee. And because he likes it, I gradually fell in love with this bitter taste. Liu Yuehan looked at the coffee in his cup, and said with a little nostalgia in his eyes, Xiao Chen on the side heard this, and at the same time, he couldn't help but taste this bitterness and fragrance again.

This noon seemed so calm and comfortable for the two. The omelet rice with the slightly spicy black pepper beef also made Xiao Chen applaud frequently in his heart. As for the sundae that Liu Yue was cold afterward, Xiao Chen didn't understand why she liked to eat this cold sweet after drinking bitter coffee.

In the afternoon, Xiao Chen felt that the silence of noon seemed to be just a premonition before the storm.

At home, in Xiao Chen's room, he looked at the stacked books on the desk, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching. Why do human beings have to go through the boring process of learning from books in order to grasp things......

"Okay, from now on, that is, from today, August 21st, until I start school on September 2nd, I will work hard and seriously every day to teach you at least what a normal child should know! When you have learned the contents of every book on this table, you will be considered a teacher! Liu Yuehan, who was sitting next to Xiao Chen, said to him with a worried face.

Hearing this, the corners of Xiao Chen's mouth trembled even more, not to mention that there are thirty books, and he has to finish all of them? How much content is in it!

Of course, he learns these things that children and elementary school see, in fact, it is not learning from scratch, but just a process of retrieving academic memory in this area. Although it may not be able to cause him to recall all the memories he has lost, at least, he will learn these things that he has mastered, and he must be many times faster than a real child.

It's just that the point is that Xiao Chen doesn't know this now, he is already indulging in panic and can't extricate himself......
