Leng Zimo already understood this habit after observing it for a few days.
After nightfall, the maid routinely grinds coffee. Authentic Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee is roasted several days in advance. After sufficient fermentation time, the taste becomes more mellow.
Once upon a time, Leng Zimo was also a fan of coffee, but later, after meeting Luo Xiaoqian, he slowly gave up coffee and began to fall in love with drinking tea. Nowadays, he rarely drinks coffee.
But these are not the key points. The key thing is that he wants to add something to Locke's coffee tonight.
In his pocket, there was a small packet of powdered medicine, which was ground up from sleeping pills. He secretly found the sleeping pills when the maid was helping him look for headache medicine.
The maid started making coffee, and Leng Zimo was preparing the egg tart liquid.
This was prepared for Luo Xiaoqian's midnight snack tomorrow. There were not many eggs in the refrigerator at noon. Leng Zimo looked at the empty egg compartment.
"Julie, could you please help me get some eggs?" He turned to the maid who was making coffee and shrugged, "If... it's not troublesome."
"How come, I am very willing to serve you." The maid smiled at him, "Please help me with some coffee, I will be right back."
"Okay." Leng Zimo agreed with a smile.
The maid walked out of the kitchen. Leng Zimo put the things in his hands on the table. He washed Leng's fingers carefully and dried them with a towel. He glanced around and saw that no one was paying attention. He immediately walked quickly to the coffee pot and took the powder in his pocket.
Take it out and pour it into the coffee pot.
The medicinal powder fell into the coffee and was quickly swallowed up by the rolling foam. Leng Zimo stirred it with a spoon and tasted it to make sure there was no peculiar smell. Then he rinsed the spoon and returned to his place.
When the maid came back with the eggs, Leng Zimo had already prepared the egg tart shells and carefully placed them into the mold one by one.
After taking the eggs brought by the maid and putting them in the refrigerator, Leng Zimo looked at the coffee pot and said, "It should be almost time, right?"
"ah!"
The maid exclaimed and hurriedly came over to turn off the electric coffee pot, poured the coffee inside into a cup, put it on a tray and sent it upstairs.
Leng Zimo watched her leave, poured the prepared egg tart liquid into the prepared egg tart shell, then put it into the oven and set the time.
Coffee is something that can be drank hot or iced. I believe that people like Locke will be the same as before, so when these egg tarts are baked, the medicinal power in his body will also take effect.
After walking to the bathroom and washing his hands, Leng Zimo raised his face and looked at the decorative mirror on the wall.
His appearance was reflected in the mirror, with a beard, a deliberately messy wig, and gray-black eyes... The look was a bit rough, but not bad.
Taking off his apron, Leng Zimo raised his palms and straightened his shirt.
The maid came back quickly, and Leng Zimo said in a casual tone, "What do you think, sir?"
"He didn't say anything." The maid just thought he was worried that Locke would lose his temper with her because of the bad coffee, and immediately smiled back at him.
"Sir, are you still working?" Leng Zimo asked calmly.
"He has always been like this. He is very busy at work. He would not come here even a day in a month before. This time, if it were not for Madam, he would definitely not stay so long." The maid said while putting away the coffee pot.
