Chapter 101 The Coffee Shop on the Corner [4K6, Small Chapter]

At dusk, Bei Chuan Che was dragged by Bai Yuan Shizhi to the food street near Erchongqiaoqian Station.

According to Bai Yuan Shizhi, there is a very famous coffee shop on this street.

It belongs to a model with great reputation and good service quality.

The most commendable thing is that the boss can still stick to his true intentions under such a premise. Compared with the time when the store first opened, whether it is the taste of the food or the overall weight, everything has improved, but the price has always been Maintain the original price.

The owner of this store never seemed to want to make a huge profit. On the contrary, in the past two or three years, due to the influence of overall industry prices, although the food in this store has increased, in this food street, Even looking at the whole of Tokyo, they are all cheap and good-quality.Just like what the boss often says, the catering industry is, in the final analysis, a steady stream of water.

Because of this attitude, many residents who live near Erchongqiaoqian Station will come to this coffee shop to eat from time to time.

Word-of-mouth, word-of-mouth, word-of-mouth, under the spontaneous publicity of everyone, this coffee shop will naturally grow bigger and better.

Under the leadership of Baiyuan Shizhi, the two of them stopped in the middle of this bustling food street.

The coffee shop that Boyuan Shizhi has boasted so magically is located here.

"Coffee shop on the corner"

Looking at the name carved in Chinese on the wooden sign, Beichuan Che was a little distracted.

When he just crossed over, he had already checked that the Eason (Eason Chan), who was popular all over the world and brought countless classic works, did not exist in this world.

"I forgot to say just now that the owner of this store lived in China for a long time." Bai Yuan Shizhi noticed Bei Chuan Che's slight expression, and explained this sentence.

"I see."

Bei Chuan Che, who came back to his senses, nodded, with a little nostalgia in his eyes.

Will you show up out of nowhere, at the corner coffee shop.

After humming these two lines softly in his heart, Beichuan Che followed Bai Yuan Shizhi, and the two walked into this famous coffee shop nearby like this.

The decoration inside the store is not complicated, even simple. It does not follow the overall style of light luxury, but more suitable for the taste of cheap coffee shops.Simple white floor tiles, various potted plants placed on indoor flower stands, and bookshelves full of various magazines. Most of the waiters in the coffee shop are young, and they seem to be in the 22-year-old range. The head waiter in the dark apron is slightly older.

It was roughly the same as Kitagawa Che's prediction. The careful Baiyuan Shizhi had already booked the seat in advance, and she also took out a special card with the name "Coffee Shop on the Street Corner" from the bag she was carrying. The silver card came. Obviously, this girl is a regular customer of this store.

Under the guidance of the waiter, the two went up to the second floor and arrived at a relatively secluded edge location.

After the two sat down, the waitress first gave Kitagawa Che a questioning look. The latter shook his head and said that it would be fine to just give the menu to Baiyuan Shizhi. So, the waitress happily handed over the menu. She was given the relatively more familiar Baiyuan Shizhi.

“Is there any more chargrilled lamb chops?”

Bai Yuan Shizhi flipped through the menu casually a few times, and asked casually.

The charcoal-grilled lamb chops in this store can be said to be a must, but the boss never allows reservations. It belongs to the first-come, first-served series, and there are only so many stocked every day.

"Yes." The waitress nodded and gave an affirmative answer. Then, after thinking about it, she added, "Generally speaking, before 06:30 p.m. on non-holidays and before [-]:[-] on holidays, all It's reachable."

"Okay, I remember." Bai Yuan Shizhi blinked, "Then we want a char-grilled lamb chop and a sirloin steak. The degree of doneness is still the same, but remember to change the black pepper sauce. into red wine juice."

"Okay." The waitress picked up a pen and wrote it down in her own notebook.

"If you have roasted wings in honey sauce, you can also have a serving." Bai Yuan Shizhi paused, "I remember that one serving is four pairs of roasted wings, right?"

"Yes, Miss Bai Yuan."

The waitress nodded slightly.

"That portion is enough." Baiyuan Shizhi cast her eyes on Kitagawa Che and asked in a low voice, "Should I order it for you, or?"

"You do it." Kitagawa Che gave the choice to the girl without thinking.

"Then have another rib-eye steak, the doneness is according to your recommendation, take out a beef tenderloin pasta, and a fruit crepe." Bai Yuan Shizhi looked at the waitress, "For tea, today Do you have any recommendations?"

"I personally recommend fruit tea, but Miss Baiyuan, you usually order more floral tea. This depends on you personally."

The waitress cast her eyes on Bai Yuan Shizhi.

"Then let's try the fruit tea today." Said Bai Yuan Shizhi, and handed the menu back to the other party, "For the time being, I will add more later."

"Ok."

After the waitress walked away, Baiyuan Shizhi focused her attention on Kitagawa Che again, and took the initiative to break the silence between the two of them, "If I want to go out on a day off, this store is my usual place. Come to one of these places, bring your laptop, pick a spot near the window in a place like this, and write down those thoughts.”

"It belongs to a more quiet working atmosphere."

Kitagawa Che added this sentence just right.

"Yes, sometimes I still relax at home, thinking about the rest day, and I should take a good rest. As for writing manuscripts, it's easy to forget about it." Bai Yuan Shizhi pursed her lips, "fishing Ideas always prevail at that point.”

"Understandable."

Beichuan Che understood this feeling very well. Before time travel, when he was still in high school, he would make a study plan in advance every Saturday, and after school on Saturday, he would forget the plan and spend the weekend on the weekend. Put it on for a day, then regret it on Monday, and so on.

"But sometimes it's not entirely like this." Baiyuan Shizhi paused, "I still want to write something so that more people can see it and get more recognition."

"uh-huh."

Beichuan Che responded softly.

"But speaking of being recognized, Kitagawa, you..." Suddenly, Baiyuan Shizhi seemed to realize something, looked at Kitagawa Che, and asked for his opinion, "Well, I feel that calling me this is a bit harsh. , Junior Beichuan, can I call you Ache like Miao?"

This is considered a temporary idea, but more of a long-planned plan.

Beiyuan Rinyin remembered Kitagawa Che's name, Baiyuan Shiori, quite clearly, but she never found a suitable opportunity to resolve the title issue between herself and Kitagawa Che.

Previously, she had called her 'Mr. Colleague' and 'Junior Beichuan', which sounded quite intimate, but compared to calling her by name, it was still a little less meaningful.

"Of course." Che Beichuan said 'hmm'.

"Since my address to you has changed, Ah Che, you should stop calling me Senior Sister Bai Yuan in private, right?" Bai Yuan Shizhi blinked and expressed her thoughts, "Is that so?" If you blame the students, just call them names, how about it? Although my grade is one year higher than yours, we are the same age."

"Shiori-senpai?"

Beichuan Che looked at Bai Yuan Shizhi.

"Can you remove the word "senior sister?" Bai Yuan Shizhi pursed her lips and propped up her chin with her left hand, "Or..." She elongated her tone, her bright eyes reflected his face, and her tone became ambiguous She stood up and said, "Ah Che, do you like the tone of this 'senior sister'?"

"Shiori."

Bei Chuan Che rolled his eyes at this person, and called her by her name according to her thoughts.

"Hey! That's right." Hearing this, Bai Yuan Shizhi showed a bright smile and turned to another topic, "Speaking of which, I have a question that I'm curious about."

Kitagawa Che did not rush to answer, but looked at Baiyuan Shizhi silently, waiting for her next words.

"Ache, do you have a girl you like?" Baiyuan Shizhi thought for a while and explained, "This does not conflict with the question I asked you before. Just because you haven't been in love doesn't mean you don't have a girl you like. "

"I really don't have this one." Bei Chuan Che shook his head. It has only been less than half a year since he crossed over with all his efforts. In such a short time, he fell in love with so and so. Given his slow temper, it is probably impossible.

What's more, speaking as a joke, he has been killing fish at RT-Mart Wharf for ten years, and his heart has long been as cold as his knife.

"Is your heart really as strong as steel?"

Baiyuan Shizhi teased him.

"Hello yes."

Kitagawa Che nodded.

"It's boring." Baiyuan Shiori muttered, "Didn't Sister Rina tell you that high school life is incomplete without a love relationship?"

"No." Beichuan Che shook his head, "I only know that what she firmly believes is that she wants to fall in love for some purpose, but that she meets the right person, and she naturally wants to fall in love with him."

"There is no right age, only the right person, right."

Baiyuan Shizhi chuckled lightly and said this.

She also firmly believes in this sentence.

It is also because of her and Tsugumi Rina's very similar views on love that they can get along like that and their relationship is so good.

"Yes."

"So you mean, the school girl who confessed to you before is not the right person for you?"

Baiyuan Shizhi mentioned this topic abruptly.

"Almost, the me in her eyes must be very different from the real me."

Bei Chuan Che was not stuck by her jumping thinking, and took up the conversation naturally.

"Then let's assume." Bai Yuan Shizhi considered the words, "If a girl likes you, how does she have to confess to you so that you will accept it?" She thought for a while, and then added He said, "Of course, in exchange, I can tell you my answer first."

After taking a few glances at Bai Yuan Shizhi, Bei Chuan Che couldn't help laughing, "Is this also part of the material?"

"more or less."

Bai Yuan Shizhi smiled calmly and nodded.

"Then Shiori, tell me first, if a boy confesses to you, what is your answer?"

Beichuan Che was not polite, and directly asked this question.

Speaking of which, he was actually quite curious about this.

His first impression of her was that she was a very popular senior student, and the confession incident on campus left a deep impression on him.

However, to Kitagawa Che's surprise, Shiori Baiyuan did not tell those romantic scenes, but rather honestly told her true thoughts that were slightly hurtful.

"The answer depends on whether I like him or not." Bai Yuan Shizhi looked at Bei Chuan Che, and met his eyes directly, "If I like him, I think everything he says is good, even if No matter how simple the confession is, even as short as only one sentence, and he still stumbles because of nervousness, I will agree to him with a smile.

“But if I don’t like him, no matter how extravagant his words are and how romantic he paints the next scene, I will still reject him.

"At the end of the day, there is no so-called standard answer for this kind of confession, it's just whether the other party likes you or has a good impression of you.

"That's all."

"What if that person is too stupid?" Bei Chuanche laughed, and mentioned a possibility, "Just like the male protagonists in many morning dramas that are broadcast now, they dare not confess at all?"

"I'll take the initiative." Baiyuan Shiori replied matter-of-factly, "There's no law that requires boys to confess, right?"

"sharp."

After a moment of silence, Beichuan Che gave Bai Yuan Shizhi a thumbs up. He has always admired girls with this kind of personality.

"I said my answer, and then..."

"Sorry, two, just to interrupt a little bit, your meals have arrived."

The waitress's voice came as expected. As she spoke, she picked up the dishes in the dining car one by one and placed them in front of the two people.

Therefore, Beichuan Che and Bai Yuan Shizhi looked at each other, and the latter showed a helpless wry smile.

However, the waitress's movements were quite swift and did not delay for too long.

"Then, guest, your meals are all ready, please take your time."

After opening the lid of the steak and taking away the oil-stained napkins that the two of them were holding in front of her, the waitress took a half step back, then bowed slightly and left.

As she turned to leave, Baiyuan Shizhi coughed lightly, and her eyes fell on Kitagawa Che's face again.

She was still waiting for his answer.

"For me, if I want to agree to a confession, I must at least have a preliminary understanding of that person." Kitagawa Che thought for a moment and then added, "If I must give an answer, I personally prefer The kind of emotion that comes naturally, raging like wildfire, may come in a violent way, but most of the time it leaves in such a hurry.”

He has seen such feelings too many times.

In the first month when hormones and dopamine are rapidly secreted, it is the vows of love and sweet words that are so sweet. But as time goes by, the perfect filter fades away, and the shortcomings will emerge.

In the process, the plot, which is vigorous and vigorous like a love movie, will become flat, and there will be no more passion. Naturally, the enthusiasm will fade, and even the three-month running-in period has not passed. Just like this, the filming and two parting, came quickly, and ended quickly.

Of course, he does not deny the existence of the kind of people who meet the right person at the first sight and stay together for a lifetime, but the probability of that is too small, just like the black iron with a boost of [-] that he used in the game back then. Like the test paper, there is a probability of success, but it is very small.

It's just that at that time, everyone thinks that they are that Chen Daozi, but the actual result is that the muddy cow has fallen into the sea, not to mention causing waves, and there will be no more waves.

"So, the school girl who confessed to you actually has a better solution."

Bai Yuan Shizhi pursed her lips in pity, but there was not much regret in her tone.

Now, all the goals she wanted to achieve today were achieved.

One is to change the title between her and him, and the other is to find out which path of emotional development he prefers.

In a sense, this is actually quite dishonest, and it is a way to find a solution from the person involved, but after all, it is still the same sentence, can it be said that emotional matters are cheating or not?
For Kitagawa Che, in the final analysis, you still have to make tea with cold water

--Take it easy.

At this time, the more anxious you are, the slower you will be.

Even if Beiyuan Rinyin and Beichuan Che were living together, according to Beichuan Che's answers just now, the situation was not as bad as she imagined.

On the contrary, for now, everything is not settled yet.

In other words, everything is still in a stable period.

Thinking of this, Bai Yuan Shizhi heaved a sigh of relief, and his mood eased.

She raised her eyebrows, met Shang Beichuan Che's gaze, and showed a charming smile, like a small crab raised the knife and fork she quietly picked up in her hand, "Then, Ah Che, it's time to catch up while it's hot~ "
