Prologue: We are all in Vishnu's dreams

It's a quaint alley, quietly in the hustle and bustle of the city, surrounded by high-rise overpasses, only this one where all the buildings are hundreds of years old and perfectly maintain an elegant mystical beauty.

Except for a few residents, the alleys are almost all lined with rented out merchants, clothes, porcelain, ornaments, vegetarian restaurants, toy houses, teahouses, bars, and of course, the most common cafes. The alleys are full of antiquity, and the names of the merchants are rarely regular, with a teahouse called "Xiaoxuanchuang", a photo studio called "Thirty-three Days", and a toy hall called "Naroyan......

There are several nice cafes in the alley, and on this day, a new café quietly opens, just as every merchant in this alley has a strange name, and the café is also called "The Witch's Magic House".

On this day, it was raining lightly, occasionally there were a few spring thunders, people passing by wrapped their coats tightly, smelling the rich aroma of coffee inside, and a few rows of roses blooming in front of the door, which were miraculously bright colors in this gray weather.

Someone stopped in front of the door, someone pushed the door and walked in.

This is a small coffee house. There were only nine tables in all, two of which were long, placed in front of the window, with couches; One was sitting on its own, also by the window, but in an inconspicuous corner, the others were small single tables.

The café is small, and the owner, manager, and waitress are all served by one person, who is an understanding-looking girl with a modest ponytail and a forest-tied linen dress, quietly fiddling with tarot cards at the bar.

Coffee drinkers come and go, sometimes with more people and sometimes less.

More often than not, there was only the girl alone in the café, and a pitch-black cat who was snoring and sleeping all the time.

The first story: Love Potion

Xiao Ai found this coffee house when he made an appointment with friends to go shopping and buy clothes on Sunday, and he originally planned to have a cup of coffee in this coffee house and wait for his friends to come, but he was released pigeon, because he was alone, and his desire to go shopping also faded.

The girl at the bar was still playing tarot cards, and Xiao Ai couldn't help but go over and say, "Do you like to play tarot?" ”

The girl raised her head, she was not the kind of girl who was particularly beautiful, what impressed people was that pair of eyes, black and white, very bright, like a reflected galaxy. "Yes, I don't just use tarot for divination, I also help others make their wishes come true."

Xiao Ai's interest came up: "Really? How much does it cost? ”

The girl said, "One cup of coffee is enough, you order another cup of coffee and tell me your story." ”

Xiao Ai is in her senior year, and she has a college classmate who has had a crush on her for three years, in the same period, in a different department, and her name is Xiaoxi.

The first time they met, Xiao Ai met Xiao Xi at the door of the teaching building, the sun was just right, and there was a faint fragrance of osmanthus in the wind, Xiao Ai fell in love with the boy in the wind inexplicably.

In the past three years, Xiao Ai has not spoken to him, has taken common elective courses, is not far or close, silently pays attention to all his dynamics, and occasionally likes him as a netizen, watching him fall in love, break up, play basketball, fitness, fall in love again, and break up again...... Life flies so fast, and three years have passed like this.

is about to graduate, and Xiao Ai has not confessed yet. Not only did they not confess, but the two did not say a word in reality. According to the legend, "If you are afraid that if you can't confess, ordinary friends can't do it, but in this situation where ordinary friends are not, what are you afraid of?" Maybe it's because I'm afraid that my dreams will be shattered. ”

The girl said, "I can't calculate the outcome of your love. But I have a question for you, if there is a love potion that you just have to sprinkle on you and him at the same time, he will not hesitate to fall in love with you, would you like to try it? ”

Xiao Ai: "Of course I do!" ”

Girl: "Don't be in a hurry to say yes, all magic is limited, and so is the love potion." You have to understand the problems and side effects of love potions first. ”

The girl tells Xiao Ai that the love potion is not indefinite, but this deadline is unknown, and if one day, the other party meets the person he truly loves, the magic of the love potion will disappear. Of course, the other person may never meet the true love of their life, or they may meet you the next day after falling in love with you, or they may meet at your wedding, or they may meet when your child is born...... Whenever he meets his true love, he will immediately abandon you and all the life related to you.

Xiao Ai asked, "Then can't I move him in a long life together?" ”

The girl replied: "No." Because the love potion makes people not see the truth. He loves you passionately, but he doesn't love the real you, and no matter what good things you do for him, he won't really remember it; Likewise, no matter how much you hurt him, he loves you just as much. That's why potions are potions. Only true love can reach the truth, and when he sees his true love, he will ignore everything you do. ”

Xiao Ai asked: "So, I either buried my feelings in my heart and never expressed them, or I used potions to worry about him leaving for the rest of my life?" ”

The girl said, "Yes, but love is adventure." ”

Xiao Ai: "Okay, I want it." ”

The girl took out a beautiful perfume bottle: "Remember, spray on both of you at the same time". The girl continued, "Also, I'll give you another bottle of medicine, which looks like a canned bottle of coffee, but it's also a potion called the Regret Potion."

"Whenever you regret it, you can drink it and go back to when you never used the love potion. But you have to remember that regret pills will only work until the other person meets true love. If the other person has already met true love and decided to abandon you, regret medicine will not work either. ”

Leaving the café with the love potion and regret medicine, Xiao Ai felt as if she had a dream.
