Chapter 6: Temptation
"Eh, why is this Vice President Yan here again, in the past two weeks, I have been here several times, this is too frequent, is this head office so idle." Xi Yu looked at Yan Yi who walked into the café and said.
"I don't know." Yijian shrugged his shoulders and said.
"Huh~, how could you not know, doesn't he come to you every time he comes?" Xiyu touched his elbow on the shoulder of Yijian, who was cleaning the dishes, and said.
"Is there one?"
"Yes, he came to you when you weren't there, and then he left when you weren't there, what's the matter, you knew each other before?" Nozomi quipped with one hand on his chin.
"I really know each other." Yijian remembered that if she hadn't accompanied Xiyu to meet that Yuan Zihao that day, she wouldn't have met him.
"Oh~, how did you meet?" Xi Yu asked inquiringly.
"It's not thanks to you, you forgot, I bumped into someone in the restaurant where you and Yuan Zihao met before." It is also an understatement.
"Ahh That's him.."
"Yes."
"This is really a narrow road, is he here to trouble you."
"No... They just asked me about the operation of the café, and it was all serious. "It's also simple and serious.
"Oh, that's good, people who don't know think he likes you."
"What, you're crazy." Yi Jian was speechless.
"Who likes whom, and who likes whom?" Shanshan stood behind Xiyu at some point, and said coldly.
"Nobody, I said that. I like you. Xiyu teased.
"I've known this for a long time, but I already have a heart, our big boss Yan, now I have to refuse your affection, sorry..."Shanshan said with a with glowing eyes when she sees a handsome guy in Japanese comics.
"Poof.."
During the lunch break, Yijian, who had just finished eating but was not sleepy, walked leisurely in the corridor of the café, saw a piece of waste paper lying on the ground, leaned over to pick it up, and sat on the wooden railing on the side of the corridor. After looking at the waste paper, he folded the paper diagonally, tore off a square, and folded a thousand paper cranes without thinking.
This is a habit of Yijian when she was studying on campus, when she had nothing to do, she would inadvertently fold the paper crane, tear the rectangular paper into a square for origami cranes, and then turn the remaining rectangle into a square until the remaining paper could no longer fold the paper crane. After a while, a row of beautiful paper cranes, smaller than the other, lined up neatly and sat on the railing. Yan Yi stood in the distance and silently looked at the appearance of Yijian's origami crane, which was exactly the same as her in his memory.
In the park in front of the Ziyuan Community, Zhang Junyi saw Qin Suyi sitting alone on a small table and chair.
"What are you doing, Qin Suyi."
"Folding a thousand paper cranes, don't you see?" Su Yi replied without raising his head.
"See, it's just strange, why do you fold such a small one, you can't bear the paper."
"No, don't you think it's cute, it's like a family."
"Huh?" Junyi sighed incomprehensibly.
"It's born from the same root, they are all born on a piece of paper, so they are all a family." Su Yi said with a serious face.
"Poof. Haha, do you know what the next sentence is that is born from the same root, why are you in such a hurry to fry each other, stupid, you have to let them kill each other. Junyi looked at Su Yi and felt a little cute.
"You're stupid." Su Yi said with hateful eyes.
"Yijian, what are you doing, why don't you go to rest, isn't it lunch break now?" Yan Yi walked over and said.
"Vice President Yan.. I couldn't sleep, so I came out to breathe. ”
"Paper cranes?" Yan Yi picked up a paper crane and put it in his hand and said.
"Hmm." Yijian's clear gaze looked at Yan Yi.
Yan Yi paused for a moment and said, "By the way, it just so happens that you are here, I have something to ask you." ”
It must be a café business again, Yijian thought to herself, she didn't know how many times he had come to her for this kind of thing, and it was obviously not within her scope of responsibility.
"What's the matter?"
"I'd like to ask you to teach me how to make coffee."
"You're going to make coffee?" Yijian asked confusedly.
"Yes, you said that a big business seller of coffee doesn't know how to make coffee?"
"But why don't you go to Ah Cheng to teach you, he is a first-class barista in our Kaffa Town."
"Two big men making coffee together, it feels weird and embarrassing, don't you think?" Yan Yi shook his index finger and said.
"That's right, since Vice President Yan has spoken, how dare I not listen." Yijian imagined that picture and said with a little smile.
"Also, didn't I say that you should call me by my name when there are no outsiders, and what did you just say about unconditional obedience." Yan Yi said with his hands crossed in front of his chest.
"Yan. Bright.. I'm just a little bit unused to it, so I'll just get used to it. ”
"Then let's go together after work."
"Let's go? Where to go? ”
"Go to a place where you can make coffee, do you want to teach me how to make coffee in front of so many employees and customers?"
"Oh, yes," Jane almost forgot that the night shift in Kaffa Town was open until 12 a.m., and suddenly felt a little silly.
Yijian got off work, got into Yan Yi's car and asked, "Where are we going?" ”
"Don't worry, I won't sell you." Yan Yi replied with a smile.
The car entered Zhongshan Road, the most prosperous area in K City, and then drove into a high-end community, Yan Yi parked the car in the underground parking lot of the community, got out of the car, opened the trunk and took out the tools and materials related to making coffee at night.
"Let's go." Yan Yi turned back to Yijian and said.
"Where?"
"This is the third time you've asked that, and you'll know when you come." Yijian followed Yan Yi to the elevator.
"Oh~11th floor has arrived." The elevator doors open.
Yan Yi walked to the door of room 1102, entered the password, and opened the door.
"Come in." Yan Yi walked in and said.
"What is this place?"
"My family.. Sit down and want to have a drink? After speaking, he strode towards Yijian.
Yijian subconsciously took a few steps back and said, "No need, thank you." ”
"Bag, give me your bag, do you want to stand here with your bag on your back all the time?" After Yan Yi finished speaking, he took off the shoulder bag on Yijian's shoulder.
Yijian was stunned and let out an "oh".
Yan Yi's room layout can be described in three words: fashionable, simple and atmospheric, with beige wooden walls as the main tone, a spacious living room on the right side of the room, a large black sofa placed in the living room, in front of the sofa is an oval large coffee table, on which a few magazines and a basket of fruits are placed at random, through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room, you can see the night view of the most prosperous section of K city. To the left of the room is the kitchen, which has a slim dark red refrigerator with double doors, and a cooktop neatly arranged with all kinds of kitchen utensils, cutlery and condiments, which looks like the kitchen of a good fine dining restaurant.
"Then let's get started, I'll teach you the easier way to make a cappuccino." Yijian came to the kitchen and said to Yan Yi.
"First, pour the milk into the press pot, about half of the pot, and then pump the piston of the press pot like this. Next, start to froth, as fast as possible, until the milk in the pot has changed from half to a jug, and then pour out the milk and milk foam for later use. Yijian explained as she did it.
"Then let's continue to make coffee" Yijian turned his head to look at Yan Yi and continued: "Pour the ground coffee powder into the pot, and then pour the hot water evenly into it, like this, then cover the piston, wait for about 5 minutes, and then gently press the piston down, so that the coffee is ready." ”
Yan Yi stood quietly beside Yi Jian, watching Yi Jian's explanation. They were so close that he could smell the coffee she had brought out of the café, but Yijian was too serious about "teaching" and didn't care at all.
"The last step is to pour the finished coffee into the cup, then pour the milk prepared earlier into the coffee, press it gently with a spoon while pouring, and finally scoop the milk foam onto the coffee and it's done, if you want to make it look beautiful, you can use this small bamboo skewer to draw your favorite pattern on the coffee" Yijian finished speaking and took a bamboo skewer to show Yan Yi.
"Come, you can try it," Yijian finished speaking, and handed the bamboo stick in his hand to Yan Yi.
Yan Yi took the bamboo stick and began to draw on the coffee.
"That's not the case, come, I'll teach you" Yi Jian smiled, and then held Yan Yi's hand and gently scratched on the coffee, Yan Yi was a little frozen, not daring to look at Yi Jian's face, and turned his head down to look at the coffee on the case seriously, this scar is.... Yan Yi saw that there was a familiar scar on the tiger's mouth between the thumb and index finger of Yijian's left hand.
"Have you ever injured your hand?" Yan Yi held Yi Jian's hand and asked anxiously.
"Yes, a long time ago." Yijian replied a little shyly withdrawing her hand.
"That's all for today." Zhang Junyi closed the book.
"Okay, thank you for tutoring me," Qin Suyi said with a smile.
"Then I'm leaving."
"I'll send you out."
Junyi walked to the opposite side and opened the door, feeling the power supply and turning on the light switch.
"What's going on?" Zhang Jun looked at the flashing electric light and said.
"I'll see." Su Yi walked over and said, it should be that the wick is broken, do you still have a spare lamp at home?"
"Yes" Junyi turned to look for the lamp.
"How do you get this?" Junyi said confusedly.
"Are you a son, you don't even know this, you come down, I'll get it" Su Yi, who had been standing below and holding on to the chair, her hands were a little sore, looked up at the stunned Junyi with disdain and roared.
Su Yi stood on the chair and got the lamp tube in three or two hours, and was just about to climb off the chair, when she suddenly stepped on the place where there were oil stains on the chair, and accidentally fell down without standing firmly, Junyi was startled and hurriedly caught Su Yi.
Su Yi lay on Junyi's body, raised his left hand, which was a little tingling, and said, "It's bleeding." ”
"Where, show me." Junyi said nervously holding Su Yi's hand.
"It's okay, it's just a little bit cut, you see, okay." Yijian happily pointed to the electric light and said to Junyi.
"Hurry up, I'll help you bandage."
"Ahh You tap," Yijian squinted and shouted loudly at Junyi.
"Why, wasn't it still very sassy just now, but now I know it hurts."
"It's not because of you, ungrateful." Yi Jian muttered angrily.
"There should be a scar." Junyi looked at Su Yi's wound distressedly and said.
"Hey, what are you doing in a daze" Yijian shook his hand in front of Yan Yi's eyes.
Yan Yi came back to his senses, "Oh, it's okay, your hand.. It's scratched. ”
"yes, you're going to look at the injuries."
"Hehe, I guess. It's so late, I'll send you back. ”
"No, I can go back myself." Yi Jian said firmly.
"How can I rest assured that you go back alone?"
"It's okay, I'm used to it." After speaking, she picked up her bag and walked briskly outside the door, afraid that if Yan Yi wanted to send herself, her relationship with the An family would be exposed.
Yan Yi chased out, but Yijian had already gotten off the elevator, so he had to give up, took out his mobile phone, and sent her a voice message on WeChat, "Yijian, when you get home, please tell me." ”
When night fell, Yan Yi lay on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, thinking about her words and deeds, her smile and smile since she met An Yijian, she was really very similar to Su Yi in his memory, could it be her, he had been looking for her for so many years, and had imagined countless scenes when he said goodbye to her, could it be that God would let her reappear in front of him so casually. Yan Yi opened the drawer and took out the gift Su Yi had given him to congratulate him on his eighteen-year-old adulthood, and a model of a baseball player fell into deep thought.
