"Ring bell——" The wind chime hanging on the door immediately attracted Su Yiqi's attention.
"1,2,3,4." Su Yiqi's voice was not loud, and others could not hear it clearly under the sound of the coffee machine.
"What?" Jian Anran only saw the other person's mouth shape.
Su Yiqi then shook his head, "It's okay, I'm a little surprised that so many people came today."
"The menu is on the bar or on the wall. Let's take a look and see what we want to drink."
Sitting down at the bar one after another, Su Yi strangely leaned close to Jian Anran's ear and asked, "Are they all friends?"
After a moment of hesitation, Jian Anran nodded immediately, "So... well, they are all seniors in my studio and teachers in our group."
"Teacher..." Su Yiqi's meaningful eyes briefly paused on the white shirt at the end.
"Any recommendations?" Mi Yingying studied the menu in her hand carefully.
Su Yiqi held the coffee pot, "Do you usually like strong drinks? Or do you prefer lighter ones?"
"To be honest, I've been suffering from insomnia recently." Mi Yingying smiled sheepishly.
Putting down the coffee pot in his hand, Su Yiqi reached out and turned over the menu in front of Mi Yingying, "Just in case, we also have juice and milk in the store."
"But if it's coffee, our store recently launched a new winter special drink, and we currently need customers' real feedback." The other party's attitude was very sincere.
"My feedback," Jian Anran immediately raised her hand, "it tastes good, but I can't drink traditional Chinese medicine like iced American style. This one is just right for me."
"Then please give me some special winter drink." Wen Siheng, who was sitting at the end, suddenly said.
"Okay," Su Yiqi's gaze could finally rest on him openly, "Does this classmate have any activities today?"
"Actually, he is..."
Mi Yingying was about to explain but was interrupted by Wen Siheng: "How do you say it?"
Su Yiqi gestured with his own body, then stretched out his hand to indicate the clothes of others, "This classmate is dressed very formally."
"Especially the trousers are very stylish." He added immediately.
"Thank you, this is my work clothes." There was no expression on Wen Siheng's face.
"Work?" Su Yiqi raised his eyebrows.
"Store manager, this is our room temperature teacher." Jian Anran said immediately.
She didn’t know if she was being overly concerned, or if there were indeed invisible sparks between Wen Siheng and Su Yiqi. Jian Anran seemed to be able to smell the smoke in the air, but the only thing she could be sure of was——
Their first impressions of each other seemed not to be very good.
After placing the orders, Su Yiqi turned around and started brewing coffee seriously. He was very curious about this coffee shop. Before the coffee came, Mi Yingying immediately walked around the coffee shop to observe.
"It's indeed an old modification..." She murmured softly, but the store was not big, so the volume was just enough for everyone to hear.
"Of course," Su Yiqi smiled, "My only request at the beginning was to preserve the original items in the store to the greatest extent possible."
"That's it... An Ran," Mi Yingying suddenly turned around, "When did you say this store was built?"
"The 1960s." Jian Anran and Su Yiqi blurted out at the same time. After a brief silence fell in the store, they both looked at each other and smiled.
"Pa!" A loud voice suddenly broke the cheerful laughter in the store. Everyone turned around and cast doubtful glances at Wen Siheng.
"Sorry," Wen Siheng got off the bar chair, bent down and picked up the folder on the floor, "I dropped something."
……
While the coffee was being served, everyone was not idle. They were flipping through the electronic drawings saved on their phones and carefully studying the current situation of the coffee shop.
"Store manager, I'm sorry to ask, are the floors on the second floor still the original wooden floors?" Song Qi asked.
"Oh," after thinking briefly, Su Yiqi nodded quickly, "Yes, yes."
"Didn't the original store have structural problems?" Wen Siheng took over, "The documents are all relatively commercial, and there doesn't seem to be anything too professional."
"What?" Su Yiqi asked.
Just then, she realized that something was wrong with Wen Siheng's tone. Jian Anran quickly stood up and said, "Our teacher said that the final design process is in the document. He would like to ask if the early design team mentioned structural issues?" p>
As if deliberately avoiding Wen Siheng's eyes, Su Yi turned his head to Jian Anran, "The designer seemed to have told me that the second floor was not stable and that there was a risk of collapse."
Hearing this, it immediately attracted everyone's attention. Mi Yingying immediately asked: "Ah? How was it handled in the end?"
"The original structure was corroded due to constant water leakage. Later, a steel structure was replaced inside to support the entire second floor. Finally, the wooden floor that was retained at the beginning was laid again."
Specifically showing the traces of the steel structure to everyone, Su Yiqi said, "In order to prevent others from seeing the traces of renovation, I put a lot of effort into covering them up."
After drinking most of the coffee, the shop was not big, so they took a few photos and then sat back at the bar.
"Okay, after reading this, I'll leave first if I have something to do." Wen Siheng picked up his coat and walked straight towards the door.
"Ah?" Mi Yingying almost spit out the juice in her mouth, "Are you leaving now? I only drank one-third of the drink."
"Sorry, don't be in a hurry, I have some things on hand and I need to go first."
"However," Wen Siheng suddenly stopped and turned his head slightly, "This store is a brick-concrete structure, so it may not be of great reference value to our project, but thank you anyway."
"Ring---" The store door closed again.
"I'm sorry, manager," Mi Yingying frowned and looked at Wen Siheng's leaving figure, "Our teacher is a very polite person, maybe because he is busy with projects recently, he is more..."
After thinking for a long time, she couldn't think of any suitable and euphemistic words. Mi Yingying looked a little embarrassed and racked her brains to recall her vocabulary.
"It's okay," Su Yiqi waved his hand, "That's understandable, it's just work."
After chatting for a while, the drinks on the bar quickly disappeared. Seemingly nothing happened, everyone stood up and prepared to leave.
"I didn't expect that there is such a delicious coffee shop hidden here. I will definitely bring my roommate here in the future." Mi Yingying said.
"Then I would like to thank you all in advance for the publicity." Su Yiqi put his hands in the pockets of his apron.
"Ring-ring--ring--" the doorbell rang, and several of them filed out.
Shaking his head, as if there was something unfinished, Su Yiqi stretched out his hand from his apron pocket and packed away the cups on the table.
"Bell--" the bell on the door rang again.
"Welcome light..." Su Yiqi looked up, and standing at the door was Jian Anran.
"Listen carefully." She sat back at the bar again.
