Although Xia Zhi agreed to Shiraishi Rika's invitation for various reasons and came with her to this coffee shop whose name I didn't pay much attention to, Xia Zhi now feels a little uneasy. Originally and the invitation
It’s not strange for your friends to come together to have a cup of coffee or snacks. The strange thing is that this store is... The customers range from high school students to college students to people in society. All of them are adults.
Paired.
Shiraishi Rika was concentrating on flipping through the menu, trying to find delicious snacks and the like, and probably didn't notice it. However, Xia Zhi, who was idle and bored, had no menu to look at. Then he looked around habitually and discovered this restaurant.
The customers in the shop are very unique - everyone seems to be very close to each other. For example, they share a piece of cake together that is not enough for one person to eat alone, and drink a drink together that has a habit of having two sips.
.This is really too exciting for the underage Xia Zhi, although there seem to be high school students of the same age as Xia Zhi who are also performing similar operations.
Wouldn't they feel ashamed to engage in such high-end operations in public?
Xia Zhi felt like a freshwater fish that accidentally swam into the sea and was about to die because of the high salt content.
What’s wrong with freshwater and salted fish? Can’t freshwater fish be salted fish?
Xia Zhi regretted that he easily agreed to Shiraishi Lihua's invitation. If he had been more determined, the situation like this would not have happened.
wrong.
He probably couldn't resolutely refuse Shiraishi Reika. There were various reasons for this. What's more, this was not an excessive request, it could even be said to be a well-intentioned invitation. Xia Zhi had no choice in the first place.
reject.
But salted fish has no way to change the status quo. Apart from enduring it desperately, Xia Zhi can't think of any other better way. There are probably a lot of things that one person can't do, but since you promised others, even if the result
It is destined to fail, so you should try your best to do it. This is the responsibility and obligation you undertake the moment you agree to someone else's request.
Although this does not prevent Xia Zhi from regretting his decision to agree to come with Shiraishi Rika to rest for a while.
"This honey strawberry cake looks delicious, Xia Zhijun, do you want it?" Shiraishi Lihua asked, pointing to a piece of cake on the menu. It has a golden layer with a strawberry cut in half on it.
The sweetness seems to be proportional to its price of 1,200 yen.
"No, no, no, no need. I'll just drink a cup of coffee. I'm not very good at eating things that are too sweet." Especially this kind of food where the sweetness is directly proportional to the price, Xia Zhi is not good at it. Wait for Xia to watch again
When there were drinks with a starting price of 600 yen on the menu, Xia Zhi felt that he was not even that good at drinking coffee. But Xia Zhi couldn't say this.
This shop is too dark! The cheapest coffee is 200 yen more expensive than the shop where I work, 200 yen! Why don’t they just rob it? Or are coffee shops now included in airports?
Or is it within the railway station’s charging standards?
"Really? I think it's delicious." Shiraishi Lihua thought for a while and came up with a good idea: "Then, I'll share some of my cakes with you, Xia Zhijun. You can taste it first and see if it tastes good before making a decision.
"
"It's really not necessary. I rarely eat cake. It would be too wasteful to give it to me. I'll just drink a cup of coffee...just drink a glass of water and have a rest." Xia Zhi shook his head. Not to mention that he rarely eats cake.
Judging from the cakes on other tables, the amount of desserts is not much, and it is also extremely expensive. If you ask Shiraishi Reika to share some of it with herself, it will be a waste of food. As the payer, Shiraishi Reika
Harvest will be greatly reduced.
Xia Zhi, who believed in the creed of "more work, more reward", didn't like how this process unfolded.
What's more, today Xia Zhi came here mainly to repay the extra care and preferential treatment she received when she went to buy a kotatsu. Even though Shiraishi Lihua herself may not know it, this does not mean that Xia Zhi can take it.
Treat this matter as non-existent, or simply ignore it. He has his own standards for measuring these things.
The purpose of coming to this library is to repay a favor, so how can I owe more and more favors to others? This is not only a failure in terms of purpose, but also a disastrous failure.
"You're welcome. If Xia Zhijun likes it, I will also be very happy." She smiled and ordered a cake from the waiter and a cup of coffee worth 800 yen, which Xia Zhijun didn't even know the name of.
Shiraishi Rika is surprisingly a stubborn and tough child.
A few minutes later, Xia Zhi got his own espresso coffee worth 800 yen. In terms of aroma, it was not a waste of money, but Xia Zhi was not a coffee expert. He could drink instant coffee.
People who drink happily don't pay much attention to these things. Just think of being slaughtered in the train station...
When he saw the other side, Xia Zhimeng was stunned. Shiraishi Lihua was also holding a small spoon, and her expression was not much better.
Shiraishi ordered a honey strawberry cake, and the people at the coffee shop were not mistaken. However, this was only one cake. Of course, there was only one plate to hold the cake and a small spoon to eat the cake.
.In other words... Natsuki doesn’t need to share it with Shiraishi Reika!
This store is surprisingly considerate.
Shiraishi Rika showed a troubled look, but Xia Zhi smiled and said: "Look, even the coffee shop thinks you should enjoy this cake by yourself, so you don't have to pay attention to me. Treat food with such an expression
If you do, you will be punished by God."
She wouldn't ask the people in the store for an extra plate and a small spoon, right? Xia Zhi thought to herself, and then saw Shiraishi Lihua raising her head and looking around, as if she was looking for the clerk.
Although Xia Zhi didn't say the words just now, but letting this idea appear is probably a crow's mouth in a way. Xia Zhi wanted to slap himself.
However, when Xia Zhi saw that Shiraishi Rika's eyes were fixed on other tables instead of the clerk in the coffee shop, Xia Zhi followed her line of sight and took a deep breath unconsciously.
As I said before, the guests in this store are all very unique, and the most important feature is their shameless and intimate interaction. Shiraishi Lihua looked around, and naturally, such a scene also reflected
came into her sight.
It shouldn’t be possible, right? It’s impossible, right? This ability to distinguish
Even though he was denying it in his heart, Xia Zhi still felt a chill coming from all directions.
Why do these bastards have to make love to each other in public!? Don’t they know how much trouble this will cause to others!? Damn it!
One day they will be burned to death.
But before that, Xia Zhi still had something to face.
Oh, disaster is always one step ahead of me.
"Well, Xia Zhijun, if you don't mind..."
Baishi Lihua also had a red face, and Xia Zhi could see her inner struggle. But although Baishi Lihua would hesitate, she could definitely do what she had to do. For example, right now, she put
The honey strawberry cake in front of him was pushed in front of Xia Zhi.
"You should taste it first... Eating cake together is still a bit too exciting for me."
"No, that's exciting for me too. But it's you Lihua who wants to eat the cake, right? Then don't worry about me. I don't really like sweets, and this cake doesn't seem to be very big.
." Xia Zhi shook his head.
Also shaking her head was Shiraishi Lihua: "I also said that I want Xia Zhijun to taste this cake. If Xia Zhijun likes it, I will be very happy. If Xia Zhijun doesn't taste it, wouldn't it be meaningless?
"
Xia Zhi is not very clear about what kind of logical thinking connection this is. But Xia Zhi has found a way to persuade Shiraishi Lihua. The reason why she hopes to taste this cake is because she hopes to share what she likes.
Give it to your friend, if the other person also likes it, then there will be one more thing in common between the two to connect them. But Shiraishi Rika doesn't know why she can't turn around, in that case...
"If you want me to be happy, Lihua, then enjoy this cake by yourself." Xia Zhi laughed, trying to add some convincing to his statement: "Because compared to the cake, if I can see you
If I smile, I think I will be happier."
Letting carpenters hunt and hunters cut trees is feasible, but the efficiency is extremely low. How to rationally use resources to obtain greater benefits is one of the things that every salted fish should explore. Use more
Less cost in exchange for more benefits is the secret to making life full of energy.
Giving the cake to Natsuki, who doesn't like sweets very much, can only bring out the efficiency of the cake itself as one, but if everything is handed over to Shiraishi Reika, who likes to eat cakes, then this cake can play a greater role and surpass
The value of one, and Xia Zhi can also obtain the additional value it creates, such as Shiraishi Lihua’s cute smile and so on.
It's just blood money.
Xia Tiancai Zhi will make a profit today!
Although she didn’t know why Shiraishi Rika was blushing as if she was congested, she took the cake back after all. Her goal was achieved, and Xia Zhi picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, probably because she was moved by her intelligence.
Now, Xia Zhi can enjoy this cup of sky-high price coffee.
Although there is a feeling of blending into the environment a little, this is actually just what I want as a disguise.
