Chapter Forty-Seven: Coffee Plays Tricks

"Yo, Uncle Nine, is this also your apprentice?" After Ren Fa greeted his business partner, he returned to Uncle Nine and them, and saw Huang Xiaohao standing beside them at a glance.

Huang Xiaohao is tall and straight, handsome, and has an elegant and calm posture when he smiles. Not to mention the comparison with the old-looking literary talents around him, even if Qiusheng, who is not bad-looking, stands next to him, he will be compared to him.

"Master Ren, he is my third disciple Huang Xiaohao, who only came back from abroad three years ago." Uncle Nine followed and replied.

"Master Ren." Huang Xiaohao followed and said hello.

"Yes, yes, a talent, waiter, and a chair." After Ren Fa instructed the waiter to add a chair, he immediately beckoned to Huang Xiaohao, "Come on, please take a seat, how about you have a cup of coffee together?" ”

"It is an honor for the younger generation to be able to drink coffee with Master Ren." After Huang Xiaohao sat down, he replied with a humble face.

"Yes, yes, Uncle Jiu, this disciple of yours is really good at talking." Ren Fa smiled and nodded, praising Uncle Jiu.

"Master Ren has won the award, he has just studied abroad for a few years. Come, coffee. Uncle Nine greeted Master Ren and said.

"Drink together, please~!"

Seeing that Uncle Nine was about to drink coffee according to what Ren Tingting had just done, Huang Xiaohao stretched out his hand and took the coffee in front of Uncle Nine.

"Master, let me make coffee for you!"

Uncle Jiu's movements paused, and when he saw Huang Xiaohao glaring at him, he immediately understood in his heart and nodded slightly.

Huang Xiaohao smiled and put a spoonful of sugar into the coffee, stirring as he said: "Coffee, that is, the Chinese transliteration of coffee, is brewed from the ground coffee beans. The taste of pure coffee is not good, it can be said to be bitter and astringent, and most people are not used to drinking it. That's why you need to add sugar and milk to your coffee according to your taste. ”

Huang Xiaohao explained as he added milk to the coffee, and between a slight movement of his wrist from side to side, the milk condensed on the surface of the coffee into a pattern of leaves.

This is a Dacheng-level life skill "coffee latte art", which cost Huang Xiaohao a hundred merit points. Although he had only redeemed it half an hour ago, it was like a cloud of water when he used it, and he couldn't see the slightest place in his hands.

"Master, drink the coffee while it's hot~!" Huang Xiaohao put the mixed coffee in front of Uncle Nine.

The leaf pattern on the surface of the coffee swayed slightly, and it faded after a few seconds.

Latte art requires milk foam, espresso and even some equipment to really be used, and after all, what is in front of you is just ordinary coffee with milk, and the pattern made with latte art skills cannot be maintained for a long time.

"Mr. Huang is a good craftman, this kind of coffee mixing method is the first time Ren has seen it." When Ren Fa saw the lifelike leaf pattern, he couldn't help but his thumb and praise.

"Master Ren has won the award, this is just a little carving insect skill, not worth mentioning." Huang Xiaohao waved his hand and pretended to be modest.

The "coffee latte art" that was specially exchanged for 100 merit points was not just to show off in front of them.

After Huang Xiaohao's cup of coffee was served, he carefully concocted it again and put the cup of coffee in front of Ren Tingting.

"Miss Ren, I accidentally laughed out loud just now, not intentionally offended, please understand, this cup of coffee is a little bit of caution for me to make amends." Huang Xiaohao stared at Ren Tingting in front of him and said softly.

"You just saw it all?" Ren Tingting originally thought that Huang Xiaohao was sitting with his back to her just now, and he shouldn't have seen himself drinking coffee, but he didn't expect him to laugh because of this incident.

For a while, Ren Tingting was really blushing, wishing that there was a crack in the ground to get into. Originally, I just wanted to play tricks on the two of Uncle Jiu's literary talents and apprentices, but I didn't expect that the people were not rectified, but they were very foreign-looking.

Ren Tingting lowered her head in shame, just in time to see the cup of coffee that Huang Xiaohao put in front of her.

The pattern on the surface of the coffee turned out to be not a leaf, but a heart-shaped pattern.

Although the heart-shaped pattern has long appeared in the West, it has spread to the East to the point that everyone knows it, at least in modern times. Among the few people here now, only Huang Xiaohao and Ren Tingting, who have been to the provincial capital to study, understand the meaning of the heart-shaped pattern.

Other people, whether it is Uncle Jiu, Wencai, or Master Ren, don't know what the heart-shaped pattern in the cup of coffee that Huang Xiaohao brought to Ren Tingting means.

The real purpose of Huang Xiaohao's skill of exchanging "coffee latte art" is this. In front of Ninth Uncle Wencai and Tingting's father Ren Fa, he drew a heart to tease in a bright way, no, it should be the pursuit of Ren Tingting.

"What does this mean? Is Mr. Huang confessing to me? No way? We've only met for the first time, and I've just learned his name, so that's too fast, right? No, no, maybe it just happened to be this pattern, and Mr. Huang may not know the meaning of the heart pattern. But Uncle Nine also said just now that Mr. Huang only came back from abroad three years ago, how could he not know the meaning of the heart? ”

Ren Tingting looked down at the heart-shaped pattern on the coffee, and her heart was full of thoughts, and countless thoughts appeared in just a few seconds.

"Tingting, Tingting~!" Ren Fa shouted twice before Ren Tingting came back to her senses, "You girl, why are you in a daze?" Mr. Huang specially helped you make a cup of coffee, and you haven't thanked others, why are you so rude? ”

"Oh, oh~! Thank you, Brother Huang. After hearing Ren Fa's words, Tingting hurriedly replied, and then picked up the cup of coffee made by Huang Xiaohao and drank it. Even she didn't notice it, in just such a short time, the title in her mouth had automatically changed to "Brother Huang".

"It's so sweet, it's so silky~! It's completely different from the coffee I've drunk before, is this what it tastes like? After drinking this cup of coffee, Ren Tingting came back to her senses, did she do this by herself, could it be regarded as accepting Huang Xiaohao's confession?

Seeing Huang Xiaohao staring at him with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his right eye even blinked at an angle that no one else saw, Ren Tingting's snow-white face was even more red, as if what she had just drunk was not coffee, but spirits, which made her blush and heartbeat in an instant, and she was at a loss.

"Dad~! I'd like to buy some rouge gouache. Ren Tingting didn't dare to stay here any longer, although Huang Xiaohao's eyes were clear and did not have the immoral thoughts of those hooligans, but it was like that cup of coffee, containing strong affection, which made Ren Tingting feel caught off guard and unable to resist.

"Go ahead! I'll get back to you later. Ren Fa was discussing in detail with Uncle Nine about his father, Mrs. Ren, about the coffin and burial, but he didn't notice the silent interaction between his daughter and Huang Xiaohao, and he only waved his hand in response when he heard the words.

"Senior brother, you were quite interesting just now, can you get one for me?" On the other side, Wen Cai hadn't drunk his cup of coffee yet, but pushed it in front of Huang Xiaohao and said.

"Personal tastes are different, senior brother, you still add sugar and milk according to your own ideas, so that it tastes good."

Huang Xiaohao pushed the coffee back in front of Wen Cai, saying that he didn't have time to help him mix the coffee, just let him stir it casually, he still had important things to do.

"Miss Ren is going to buy rouge gouache? It just so happens that my brother's aunt runs a rouge shop, so let me show you the way! Huang Xiaohao stood directly in front of Ren Tingting, smiled and said, "The goods in that store are all new, with an acquaintance like me, how can I get a discount." ”

After finishing speaking, Huang Xiaohao didn't even wait for Ren Tingting's response, and directly turned around to say goodbye to Uncle Nine and Ren Fa.

Ren Tingting was extremely nervous, not knowing whether she should agree or refuse, and she didn't even know how to say anything. Seeing Huang Xiaohao's appearance as if she had agreed, she was even more ashamed to say no, lowered her head and only stared at her toes and walked forward, and hurriedly walked out of the restaurant in a few steps.

A few steps out of the cafeteria, she heard the sound of hurried footsteps behind her, and it took her a breath to come to her side. Ren Tingting looked sideways, it was Huang Xiaohao who followed up, and a touching smile couldn't help but appear on her face. But she immediately felt that her performance was very inappropriate, and she forced a calm expression.
