Chapter 169 You like it that much?



After Qi Yi finished brewing the coffee, he brought it to He Danqing.

With a look of great interest, he said, "Try it."

If you want to drink his coffee normally, you have to wait.

Not everyone gets such good treatment; only those close to him can see his clumsy coffee-making skills.

He didn't want to embarrass himself because of other people.

Everyone says that Attorney Qi is very influential and capable.

Who knew that he actually had a knack for making coffee in his private life? Aside from being a bit unrefined, it was pretty good.

Qi Yi sometimes doesn't think too much when he does things. He has a mountain of cases on his hands, and it would be quite difficult to pick out a few to work on as individual cases.

There are too many things to weigh in a short time.

He is someone who is not very willing to give up on many things, so he seems to be struggling a lot.

I'm unsure what I should do.

Everything before his eyes might appear as a lie.

Having no idea what these people were trying to say, there was simply no reason to continue the discussion.

Actually, they all have different reasons for doing what they do.

But on this point alone, they are vastly different.

Even if he doesn't want to, it's difficult for him to extricate himself.

It seems that Qi Yi is still not clear enough about these matters.

What he hopes for is that no matter what happens, he can still satisfy the person involved.

Aside from these thoughts, he had no other ideas.

In any case, all of these things are just fleeting moments in their eyes.

It's possible that it will never be mentioned again after it's over.

But deep down, he couldn't get over it.

Qi Yi thought he had a good plan, but reality taught him a lesson.

Seeing it is good for them. Sometimes you feel like you've seen it all along, but in reality, all you really need to say is just a few words.

Sometimes, they feel they can see things very well, but no matter how long they wait, they never get what they want.

Qi Yi dared not make any guarantees to He Danqing, nor could he speak so absolutely.

He seemed to have anticipated this possibility, so he never expected to escape unscathed.

However, he was still trying to regain some face, and he felt somewhat at a loss as to how to continue.

The same words coming from his mouth just felt a little off.

Qi Yi could figure it out himself, so why would he need someone else to remind him?

Not at all.

Even the dumbest person could tell who was good and who was bad by now.

But now, their opponents are hiding in places they don't know, watching everything with cold eyes. Those people are hiding in the shadows, using their own methods.

Qi Yi was worried that Tang Jinyu was inexperienced and would be tricked by them.

He was even more afraid that they would resort to more unknown means. Tang Jinyu was still too young, and Qi Yi never wanted her to know about those dirty things.

This idea has been around since the beginning, but it just hasn't been put into practice yet.

He Danqing suddenly came to his office, and he thought she had something important to say to him.

Unexpectedly, it really was just to come here and chat with him.

"Your coffee tastes really good."

He Danqing paused for a moment before continuing, "It's a long story, and you're already doing me a favor by drinking it."

I have no idea how to describe the taste.

He had drunk so much coffee, but only this time did he feel as if he had discovered a blind spot in his knowledge.

Seriously, how could anyone brew such terrible coffee?

He couldn't find the right adjective for a moment.

With Qi Yi's skills, it would be better if he didn't have any at all.

"It's brewed very well, maybe you shouldn't brew it next time?"

After drinking it, I felt really energetic.

Pure black coffee, the original kind, without any alterations.

Other people's improved versions might at least pique their interest, but Qi Yi's cup of coffee almost carried them away.

He Danqing was already beginning to suspect that he might have some misunderstanding about the word "coffee".

Or is it...?

After a long period of time, he finally developed a taste that he could not understand.

I really don't know how to describe Qi Yi's skill.

"I told you you wouldn't like it, but you wouldn't believe me."

"After you've tasted it this time, don't even think about asking me to make you coffee again."

Qi Yi was too lazy to take on this job. If He Danqing hadn't been in a bad mood lately and insisted on coming to him for fun, he really wouldn't have bothered to show off his skills.

He could never do something so disgraceful.

It was one thing to embarrass himself in front of Tang Jinyu, but He Danqing was his childhood friend.

If word gets out, how will he ever be able to stay in the industry?

Qi Yi is a man who cares about his reputation. Take making coffee for example, he doesn't usually need to personally greet people like that; his secretary can handle that.

Who would have thought that two people would come who insisted on tasting his cooking?

It seems inappropriate not to make a cup, but if I do make one, they think it doesn't taste good.

He's in a really tough position.

"I'm not saying this to be mean, but making coffee isn't that hard to learn. Can't you just learn it properly?"

"With your cooking skills, who could possibly drink this every day?"

He Danqing frowned, took another sip, and then decisively put it aside.

I can't stand even a little bit.

If I drink any more, I feel like I'm going to die here.

Qi Yi simply shrugged, looking completely indifferent.

"So, what exactly are you here for? Just to have a cup of coffee?"

"Then you've really come to the wrong place."

If he had the skill to make coffee, he wouldn't have been criticized by Tang Jinyu so many times.

Every time I make coffee, I get a few words of criticism.

Over time, he lost track of his own skill level.

It's true that over time, one's skills become very rusty.

On this point, Qi Yi felt that he did indeed have some problems.

But this isn't something that can be solved by time. He can't learn it, and even if a lot of time passes, he still won't understand it.

All the skill points are not here, so learning anything will be a waste of time.

Tang Jinyu was born with the skill; he never studied it in this way at all.

I spent all my time memorizing those legal provisions and didn't think about anything else.

Who would have thought that I'd be making coffee after graduation?

People say that having many skills is never a bad thing, but what about him?

It's true that he's almost mastered all eighteen skills.

"I think most people don't show their dislike as obviously as you do."

Qi Yi pursed his lips, unable to bear watching it at all.

He Danqing's gaze was all too obvious.

He didn't know whether he should continue or not.

Anyway, no matter how I think about it, it feels like a mistake.

"I'm telling you, your skills are genuine. Otherwise, you shouldn't embarrass yourself by showing them off. It's not like your law firm doesn't have assistants."

"Do you really need to do this yourself?"

He Danqing couldn't stand it anymore.

Qi Yi can do something as simple as making coffee so badly.

How can we trust him to handle other things well?

Qi Yi shrugged. "I'm only good at dealing with people. As for things, I'm completely useless at it."

He can try other things if he tries hard, but that's about it. He probably can't try anything more.

"I'm telling you, I definitely won't try your coffee again next time. I don't have the willpower to accept your taste buds."

He Danqing pushed the coffee aside, looking like she didn't want to touch it again.

It's true.

It's hard to swallow.

He doesn't act like this even when he encounters dishes he doesn't like.

Was Tang Jinyu poisoned by him for so long that she lost even the most basic sense of taste?

He Danqing couldn't help but think that way.

The way these two get along is really something.

He couldn't understand it at all and didn't know if it was some kind of novel model.

"Get to the point. Don't come here to criticize my coffee-making skills. I won't accept that."

Qi Yi didn't accept any rebuttal, since he never made coffee for himself anyway.

They're all for other people.

To be honest, Tang Jinyu felt that as long as there were no problems, that was fine.

Even if others find it annoying to drink it, he won't care.

"When I came out, she wasn't in the office. I was wondering if you know where she went?"

Qi Yi picked up his phone and glanced at it. "At this time, she should have just left my office not long ago."

"If she didn't go back to her office, she should be near the law firm. She didn't mention that she had anything to do this afternoon when we were chatting just now."

Qi Yi hadn't heard her mention her future plans, so she must have just gone out for a walk.

Tang Jinyu needs to clear her mind sometimes, especially when she can't figure things out. Going for a walk helps her calm down.

At first, Qi Yi didn't know about her habit, but he understood it later.

Staying in the office all the time can be very depressing.

Especially when faced with all that information but unable to come up with a solution.

It will become increasingly irritable.

Qi Yi could understand that feeling because there had been a time when she felt the same way.

He wasn't surprised by any of Tang Jinyu's emotions now.

He was the one who recommended the case, and the other party agreed, so he's been busy with it for so long.

Winning or losing doesn't seem that important, nor is it a problem standing between them.

We'll get through this eventually.

It doesn't matter if it's just a moment.

It all depends on what they say.

"I thought..."

He Danqing stopped mid-sentence.

He suddenly didn't know what he thought it was.

Tang Jinyu had no reason to greet him when she went out; he was nobody to her and had no standing with her.

Everything was just his imagination; she didn't say a single ambiguous word.

Naturally, he couldn't attribute Tang Jinyu's attitude to his own understanding of it.

It is her freedom to go out if she wants to.

I asked Qi Yi because I was worried something might have happened to her.

Knowing she was near the law firm, I wasn't worried.

Security around the law firm is quite good; they will detect anything immediately.

He had no chance to run out and play the hero, nor did he have any opportunity to show off.

Thinking about this, He Danqing still felt quite annoyed.

It's a bit of a pity to have missed such an opportunity.

but.

If he could, he would rather never have the chance to be a hero and save a damsel in distress.

That proves that Tang Jinyu is safe.

His idea sounds like a complete fantasy.

But in reality, it's not that easy to do.

after all.

There are too many people watching them now; who knows if someone might have ulterior motives?

When He Danqing first returned, his father, while he was still conscious, told him to be careful and on guard.

Don't trust anyone.

He Danqing didn't understand at first, but now...

After reviewing the materials and watching the videos, he suddenly understood what those words meant.

That's exactly right.

The best approach is to trust no one.

Once you've given your heart away, you might not have the same initiative as you do now.

Are they not doing enough right now?

Even after considering all aspects, I still feel troubled.

"You're really paying more and more attention to her now, do you like her that much?"

Don't blame Qi Yi for asking this question now; it's just that He Danqing suddenly told him she liked someone, which sounded even more outrageous.

He was at a loss for words.

At first, I always thought I could do things more clearly.

This will make things easier for He Danqing.

But after getting to know them, you'll understand what's going on with the He family.

It was different from what all of them had imagined.

Naturally, you cannot equate them.

Qi Yi's major limited the things he could do, and he couldn't help at all.

Hopefully, Tang Jinyu will make progress in the future and won't be stuck at this stage forever.

He didn't know if what he said was right or wrong.

But then I thought about how busy they were.

If we really lose, there will be too much resentment.

They had been busy preparing for so long, they really couldn't think of any better way.

All those things from the past can be buried, but if that's really the case...

It seems like there's nothing more to say.

"I really like her, but I'm not sure if she knows it."

He Danqing looked away, his expression unreadable.

It's just that one can sense that his expression is somewhat forlorn.

but.

Tang Jinyu is indeed a very difficult person to pursue.

Qi Yi knew this back in college.

He had anticipated this day would come when He Danqing first told him that he liked Tang Jinyu.

He also felt somewhat lost and unsure of what to do.

But the more I think about it, the more uncertain I become about where I should put my emotions.

Should we stand on Tang Jinyu's side, or hope that she can take this step?

It was as if everything had been piled up in front of him.
