Chapter 226: Café Adventure
The next day, Zhan Jingyi got up early in the morning.
He came back late last night and didn't sleep well, and today he doesn't seem very energetic.
It may be that he was affected by the residual consciousness of the subconscious world, and his usually relaxed mood was affected.
After six hours of sleep last night, even after returning to the dormitory, he opened his eyes on time, tried to open his sleepy eyes, and came to the bathroom to wash up.
At this moment, a "jingle bell" phone rang.
Zhan Jingyi finished washing unhurriedly, came to the table and picked up the satellite phone, and after connecting, an impatient voice came from inside: "Xiao Zhan, are you up, I'm Mo Wenyi." ”
Taking the phone a little farther away, Zhan Jingyi said lazily: "I heard it, what's wrong with you?" ”
"No, it's nothing, isn't it, aren't we going to get ready to go? Vice President Bi came to me and said that he wanted to invite you to dinner. ”
Speaking of this, Mo Wenyi paused: "He said he wanted to thank you and invite me to accompany you, you see?" ”
"Let's just eat, let's have a coffee, give me an address, and I'll go straight over."
Zhan Jingyi thought for a moment and said calmly: "It's just right, I'll also explain something to you." ”
Hearing Zhan Jingyi's response, Mo Wenyi did not hesitate, and hurriedly responded: "Okay." ”
……
Swan Cafe, located on a lively street near the Spring City Guard Hall.
The café in the sun is extra warm and peaceful.
Walking along the stone path, you'll be greeted by soft lighting and a warm atmosphere, a quintessentially European-style café with a laid-back and cozy vibe.
The interior design of the café is full of art, with old black and white photos and modern paintings hanging on the walls, showing the perfect combination of vintage and fashion.
Wooden furniture and vintage lamps create a homely atmosphere. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the interior with natural light, brightening the entire space.
In the corner of the café, a young man is playing a guitar, and relaxing music flows through the room, creating a peaceful atmosphere for customers.
You can see him immersed in the music, and every note is like the soul of a café, quietly telling his own story.
The aroma of freshly ground coffee beans fills the air, and you can't help but take a deep breath.
Enthusiastic baristas are busy behind the bar, carefully brewing each cup of coffee, releasing the rich aroma of coffee with warm steam, making the whole space full of pleasant atmosphere.
In the store, there are not many customers at this point, a few people occupy their own corners, enjoying their coffee time, some are reading books intently, some are talking in a low voice, and some are working on the computer, enjoying the peace and comfort brought by the café.
……
"Jingle Bells"
When Zhan Jingyi pushed the door in, the wind chimes on the door frame rang, and the sound was very pleasant.
He carried his bag and sat down in a window position, where he could see the scenery outside, which was more convenient for Mo Wenyi and Vice President Bi to see him.
"Xiansen, what do you want to drink?"
A girl in a black maid outfit walked over with a coffee sheet and asked with a smile.
She said the tone she learned from the movie, which sounded a little sassy, but it was not pure.
To be precise, it should be the local vernacular, and other accents are mixed together to form a kind of words with plastic characteristics.
"I'll take a look first."
Zhan Jingyi maintained his steady temperament, took the coffee list from her hand, and then looked at the coffee unit price on it, his pupils contracted.
Just a cup of coffee, so expensive?
Then, he frowned slightly, pointed to the most eye-catching and expensive cup on it, and said, "This." ”
Anyway, Vice President Bi will be responsible for entertaining guests for a while, and he won't spend his own money anyway, so he doesn't feel distressed.
Besides, it seems that this cup of coffee is the most expensive, it should be quite delicious, and when he doesn't need to spend his own money, Zhan Jingyi actually doesn't mind enjoying a little luxury.
"Okay, wait a minute......"
The girl in the black maid costume said something that made people worry that she would bite her tongue and walked back in a hurry.
"It's so tiring to talk like this......"
Zhan Jingyi thought to himself as he looked boredly at the other customers in the store.
"Xiansen, your coffee is here, please use it slowly......"
It didn't take long for a light black figure to come to him and put the coffee in front of Zhan Jingyi.
It seems that seeing Zhan Jingyi's face does not change and his heart does not beat, he orders the most expensive coffee, and the girl in the black maid outfit is also very enthusiastic about him.
So, both the service and the words seem to have a different kind of enthusiasm.
……
"Okay......
Zhan Jingyi nodded, then looked at the tray, which only had a cup of black coffee in a white porcelain cup.
He looked at the other places with some curiosity, hesitated for a moment, looked up at the girl, and asked, "Hello, where are the sugar and milk?" ”
"Senmori ......"
The girl in the black maid costume smiled very cutely, and when she smiled, she showed two small dimples, which looked particularly sweet: "This is the specialty of our store, pure black coffee, you can only feel its bitterness and mellow aroma when you drink it directly, so the regular way to drink it should not put sugar and milk......
"Uh-oh."
Zhan Jingyi was stunned for a moment, considered the bitterness brought by drinking black coffee, smiled hurriedly, and said, "I know, but let's bring me some, it's too bitter, I may not be able to accept it." ”
He knew that some people liked to drink plain black coffee without sugar, but he really couldn't get used to the bitter taste.
In his opinion, since it is coffee, it must be more important to put sugar and milk, only in this way is the most comfortable to drink, those who do not put sugar and do not pour milk are heretics.
Who would rather suffer than eat sweet?
After listening to Zhan Jingyi's words, the girl did not move, but explained with a smile: "Xiansen, only when you taste the bitterness, can you feel its fragrance, life is also this sauce purple, sometimes, we will feel very difficult, very painful, but in fact, this pain is all given to us by ourselves." ”
"Sometimes, if you can try to let go of your prejudices, embrace life, and accept the truth of life, maybe it will be a lot easier......
Zhan Jingyi looked up at her, and saw that she was smiling happily, and her voice was particularly gentle: "Xiansen, you can start with this cup of coffee, our coffee is specially shipped from Cuba, the name is Colin coffee, and the annual amount is very small, so it is sold so expensive, and putting anything in the coffee is an insult to it......"
“……”
Zhan Jingyi listened to the waitress's words and deeply admired her professionalism, but he glanced down at the black coffee, and felt that there should be no problem in this coffee, the problem was bitterness.
He thought about it for a while, but still said, "I ......"
The girl in the black maid costume quickly answered, "If you really want to drink sweet, why don't you have a cup of mocha......"
"That's ......"
At this moment, Zhan Jingyi didn't expect people to respect coffee so much, thought about it, pushed this cup of black coffee, and said, "Then give me a cup of Mocha!" ”
"Okay, then I'll go get you a drink."
The girl in the black maid costume was stunned for a moment, then her accent changed, and she turned to leave.
……
"Wait......"
Zhan Jingyi stopped her, pointed to the black coffee in front of her, and said, "Let's return this cup." ”
The girl turned her head to look at Zhan Jingyi, a smile appeared on her face, and said, "I'm sorry, sir, once the coffee is sold, it can't be refunded......"
"You ......"
You don't let the sugar and milk be put in, I don t want it, you still don t want such an expensive black coffee Zhan Jingyi twitched in his heart.
But then, Zhan Jingyi put himself in his shoes, people have already cooked it for themselves, and they can't sell it if they take it back, and it's normal not to return it.
So he sighed helplessly and said, "Forget it, just drink it, and bring me some sugar and milk." ”
The girl smiled politely and said, "Xiansen, you can't put sugar and milk in this coffee......
“…… But I don't like to drink bitter food. ”
"Then you might as well drink Mocha......"
"Then you gave me this cup back......
"I'm sorry, but once the coffee is sold, it can't be returned......"
"Then you can bring me sugar and milk......
"Then you might as well drink Mocha......"
"You always say that, don't you have a lot of respect for Mocha?"
Inexplicably, the topic between Zhan Jingyi and the girl in a black maid costume suddenly entered a stalemate.
Zhan Jingyi looked at the girl, and the girl also looked at Zhan Jingyi, both of them smiled and were very polite, but when it came to their own positions, they were resolutely not willing to back down, nor were they to be outdone.
After all, everyone is a person of faith, and everyone thinks that what they say is right.
"Xiansen, our coffee is not put in it, sugar and milk......
The smile on the girl's face was already a little stiff, but it was still word by word, insisting on her opinion.
"Okay......"
In the end, Zhan Jingyi decided to retreat, after all, he was a big man, and it was not good to quarrel with such a beautiful little girl.
So, he compromised and decided not to ask her for sugar and milk.
Seeing that Zhan Jingyi had obviously compromised, the girl's face showed an expression of relief and appreciation.
Then, she saw Zhan Jingyi take out a piece of candy from her pocket, then slowly peeled off the candy wrapper, put the chocolate that was about to melt inside, picked up the silver spoon next to it, and stirred it gently to make it melt more evenly.
"Huh?"
Seeing his movements, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became a little depressing.
The girl holding the coffee list in her arms turned gloomy, and then slowly smiled, looking at the cup of black coffee in front of Zhan Jingyi, which had become no longer pure because of the infusion of chocolate......
She slowly grinned the corners of her mouth, revealing her white and neat teeth and dark red gums, and said, "Xiansen, you are so ...... Taste it......"
