Coffee can also help you sleep
It's not even ten o'clock yet, and there are quite a few customers scattered in the store. Xue Luo, who is working at the cashier, is a little busy, and occasionally responds to customers who ask questions in the backend of the online store.
"Welcome~" When Pu Yi saw a strange face, Xue Luo subconsciously smiled sweetly and greeted him.
Peacock was a little surprised that the owner of this small supermarket was such a young girl.
Did she really develop these snacks?
Peacock was a little skeptical about life, but when he saw Xueluo's sunny smile, he suppressed all his complaints.
Xueluo had just finished paying a customer's bill and said, "Sir, what would you like to buy? Or would you like to take a look around for yourself?"
Peacock originally wanted to buy the tea eggs that even thieves coveted from Star News, but then he thought, he had finally come here, it would be a shame if he didn't take a look at them himself.
"I'll see for myself."
"Okay." Xue Luo didn't care anymore and continued to reply to the strange responses from the customers in the online store.
Kong Que simply couldn't sleep so he came out to wander around. When he arrived, he found that this was just an ordinary small supermarket. He didn't have much hope in the first place. Instead, he felt his heart beat faster when he saw Xue Luo sitting by the cashier. The other person's bright and clean smile made him, a romantic by nature, experience what it meant to fall in love at first sight for the first time.
But he was also a little timid... After rejecting Xue Luo just now, he immediately regretted it.
Don’t be afraid…!
You can even talk to her when you check out later!
Thinking of this, Peacock's eyes casually scanned the various snacks on the shelves, tea eggs, ham sausages, instant noodles... These snacks that were made popular by the thief were indeed in the most conspicuous place in this small supermarket.
And as he looked around... he discovered that the things in this small supermarket seemed to be something he had never seen anywhere else.
"Is it because I haven't eaten snacks for too many years? Snacks nowadays have changed so much?" Peacock's eyes swept over the packaging and types of snacks he had never seen before, "Spicy strips? Rainbow candies? Lollipops..." Even some snacks he had eaten before, but in this store with the same name, were fundamentally different.
Peacock picked up a plastic basket and said, "These snack packaging designs are quite nice!"
He couldn't help but praise it, and as he was praising it, he found that his plastic basket was already full, "Okay, I'll buy this much."
Still don’t know what it tastes like?
But just when he turned a corner, his eyes couldn't help but linger on the coffee placed in a corner.
"Nestle coffee?" Looking back, there are more than ten flavors, classic red color, with a cup of slowly pouring coffee in the middle. Just looking at the picture makes a coffee lover like Peacock a little greedy.
Peacock couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Do I still need coffee to stay energetic now?" He was still full of energy even without drinking coffee, but he had no inspiration for new paintings.
Even though he thought so, his hands couldn't help but pick up all the coffee flavors. "It's quite affordable. Let's just take a sip for something new."
Peacock walked to the cashier with the full basket, and even Xueluo, who had just finished fishing, was a little shocked.
She had this expression on her face, and even though it was the first time he saw her, Peacock actually found it a little cute.
"Yeah, that's troublesome." He suddenly started to think about his current appearance. He left in such a hurry and he hadn't slept much recently. His face must look very ugly. Thinking of this, he felt a little unwell. Of course, he also showed a cold attitude to the outside world. He looked like the kind of person who was difficult to approach.
Xueluo thought he was the kind of customer who didn't like to talk much, so she quickly finished the cashier's checkout. "Sir, thank you for the 325 star coins. This is your first time buying so many snacks. I suggest you become a member of our store so that we can remind you of any new products or promotions in the future."
Peacock was moved when he heard this, thinking that he could come more often in the future with this excuse.
“What about members?”
Xue Luo smiled: "You just need to tell me your alliance ID number and contact number."
Peacock nodded and read it out.
After Xue Luo had finished the job for him, she pushed the light curtain window over.
Peacock took a look.
"Welcome to visit us next time."
In fact, Peacock didn't really want to leave immediately, but he couldn't find a reason to stay. He looked like he was about to speak, and even Xue Luo at the cashier was a little surprised and acted as if he was ready to listen.
Peacock suddenly felt a pair of eyes looking at him coldly, and an uncomfortable feeling surged into his heart. He subconsciously followed the gaze and saw a long-haired white cat lying on its side on the table where the money tree was placed not far from Xue Luo's hand. Its dark blue eyes were staring at him, its expression as cold as ice and snow, its posture elegant and inviolable, but it looked at him as if it were looking at a pig plucking cabbage.
This association suddenly popped up in his mind, and Peacock was amused by himself.
I still think to myself, "It's just a cat, what can it think? I must be drawing like crazy lately!"
"Mr. Peacock?"
"What's your name?" Peacock asked, feeling a little pressure. He didn't even know where this pressure came from.
"Xue Luo." Xue Luo answered with a smile.
"See you next time then."
"See you next time." Xue Luo rarely saw a customer who was so generous as to buy snacks, and of course she hoped that he would come more often.
But Peacock, looking at her smile, felt as if he was healed.
I left the house in a huff. Next time I come, I must clean up in advance. I hope I didn't leave Miss Xueluo with such a bad impression this time!
It’s the cat that Miss Xueluo raised... It’s a little too fierce. Peacock almost suspected that if Miss Xueluo hadn’t been there, the white cat would have been unable to resist and would have kicked him out.
Half an hour later, Peacock returned to the villa on the top of the mountain. Looking at the extremely messy interior, the deep sea-like deep silence made his good mood just now outside also become depressed.
He casually placed the two large bags of snacks he had just bought on the glass table top filled with brushes, paints and other painting tools. He then slumped down on the sofa, looking at the gorgeous crystal chandelier dome above his head, and began to doubt... did he really need these things?
The girl's sunny smile gradually faded.
"I'm still not sleepy at all." Peacock said with emotion, then got up again, his eyes fixed on the snacks. He found a tea egg, opened the package and ate it. "Hmm...it tastes quite unique. I thought it was the taste of tea?"
Peacock was also amused by his own idea.
Since he hadn't had breakfast, and the tea eggs tasted pretty good, although a bit novel...his taste buds were successfully awakened anyway.
I also ate rainbow candies and lollipops of various flavors. I ate too much sweet food, and even my previous depressed mood faded.
Finally, Peacock decided to try the Nescafé coffee, and he poured out all of it: "Original, Latte, Cappuccino, Vanilla, Wine..."
Even a painter like him, who has so many tastes and chooses between various similar and different colors on a daily basis, is starting to feel confused.
“Let’s try this most classic one…”
After Peacock took it out, he was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "I haven't tasted something brewed like this in years, but a box of this is less than thirty star coins, it's really quite cheap."
There was a housekeeping robot in the villa. After Peacock gave the order, it quickly took his usual coffee cup and brewed 500ml of coffee.
The rich aroma of coffee immediately filled the air, making Peacock's mouth water. "Not bad?"
He didn't have the patience to wait, and subconsciously used his mental power to cool the coffee to a temperature suitable for drinking. Then he took a sip. The delicate taste, slightly bitter, seemed to melt on his tongue. It was not inferior to the Shenmu Star coffee he usually drank, which cost 50,000 star coins per gram.
“Delicious!”
Just as he was sighing, he suddenly found a strange text box appeared in front of him: [Item: Nestle Coffee - Original
Additional status: Sleep aid +10, inspiration +5]
"What's this?"
Peacock subconsciously wanted to touch it, but found that the thing did not actually exist, so he immediately passed his hands through it.
Like everyone else, Peacock subconsciously felt that he was hallucinating.
But the warm feeling in his spiritual sea clearly told him that he was not hallucinating and there was nothing bad in the cup of coffee.
"Strange?"
For a moment, Peacock patted his head.
Then,
He drank more than ten cups of coffee in one breath, thinking that he would have to run to the toilet the next second. As a result, he really ran, and the dense text columns in front of him surrounded him.
Coffee with different tastes has different additional effects, such as refreshing, relieving fatigue, improving concentration, increasing inspiration, and increasing acuity...
After coming out of the toilet, Peacock found himself extremely sleepy, which was probably the effect of the first cup of coffee. At the same time, his brain seemed to have a white line passing through it in an instant, and the bottleneck that had been trapping him seemed to disappear at this moment.
His inspiration began to come in an endless stream...
But……
He was so sleepy that his eyes began to tremble, let alone holding the paintbrush.
That's it... After I wake up, after I wake up...
Peacock slept comfortably, as if he had made up for all the sleep he had gotten in the past three months. When he woke up again, he found that it was already noon the next day!
Peacock glanced at the time and couldn't believe it: "...I slept for 25 hours?"
Of course, after waking up, he went straight to the studio. The endless inspiration and creativity in his mind did not allow him to waste any time. This time, he did not even make a draft. He painted in one breath until the sunset in the evening.
After completing "Goddess Bathing in Sunlight," even he himself would look at it and exclaim, "I actually painted this!"
It is even better than his previous hit "Morning Star".
Soon, he finally reconnected with his agent Wenzhi after three months. Wenzhi hurried to the villa and saw "Goddess Bathing in the Sunlight" in the sunset in the stained studio. For a moment, he forgot the lyrics.
The face of the goddess is blurry, but her beauty, gentleness and brightness are so deep that just by looking at her, one can feel the radiant warmth brought by the painter's spiritual power, which penetrates into one's bones.
Wenzhi praised, "I never thought that in just three months, you, Kongque, would bring such an excellent work to the art world. I believe anyone who sees it will fall in love with it! It's the perfect combination of painting and spirituality!"
Wenzhi sighed and couldn't help asking where his inspiration came from.
The first person that Peacock thought of was Xue Luo in the Hua Xia supermarket, but he just brushed it off.
Wenzhi wanted to ask someone to take care of the villa, but Kongque refused and sent Wenzhi away.
Peacock was alone in the huge and quiet villa, but this time his heart was beating actively, with both excitement and joy.
Soon, he finally remembered what he drank coffee yesterday afternoon, "Could it be the influence of Miss Xueluo's coffee?"
"It's really strange, there's obviously no text status on other snacks..." In order to verify this fact, Peacock ate some of the snacks left over from yesterday. They were all delicious. It happened that he drank at this moment, so he finished them all. Naturally, nothing happened in front of him.
If it weren't for the reminder of increased color sensitivity after drinking the cup of vanilla coffee, Peacock would have thought it was just a dream.
But this is not a dream!
It's reality.
But how could something like coffee help me sleep and increase my inspiration... Unless it was the healing factor from the Alliance healer...
"Could it be..."
"Miss Xueluo is a healer!" As soon as this idea came up, even Peacock was shocked by his own idea.
But think about it, this is the only possibility.
How could such a young healer hide his identity in such an urban-rural fringe area?
Sitting on the sofa, sipping coffee and enjoying the leisure time, Peacock couldn't help but open the Star Network search. This search happened to find Starblog Today's News, which was under the blog post where Huaxia Snack Shop and Mengmeng Snack Shop had a battle of 3,000 comments.
Looking at the lively scene a week ago, Peacock was also impressed. "Wait...it's the Huaxia Snack Shop? Oh, that's right, Miss Xueluo also opened an online store."
Even Peacock had to admire it. When he saw the closure of Huaxia Snack Shop, he found out that it was because many people said that they were in a good mood after eating the snacks, and saw the magical words that led to the online store being removed from the Lianhe Shopping Network.
Whether it is fans or passers-by, they all think that this is caused by excessive use of memes.
But Peacock, who had already achieved the state of being full of food, looked at the coffee beside him and his eyelids jumped: "Is there a possibility that this is true... But it seems that only a few people can achieve the additional state of being full of food from Miss Xueluo's snacks."
He spent another hour or two to infiltrate the fan group of the Huaxia Snack Shop organized by Mr. Nian Gao, and soon he figured it out.
It was obvious that the big UP host Happy Beans who tested snacks on P station before also ate the additional state, but he changed his words later.
Obviously there is a reason.
"Not everyone can benefit from the added bonus of eating snacks. It has to suit them. Also, perhaps those with weak mental strength can't benefit from them?" It's unclear whether this is a limitation of Miss Xueluo as a healer, or something else entirely. But being able to put the healing factor in snacks, and having it last for a long time, and not just a single bonus...
How could Miss Xueluo be just an ordinary healer!
If Kong Que had some feelings about Xue Luo before, now that he knew that she might be an extraordinary healer, that slight liking for her turned into admiration and respect.
"But... Miss Xueluo's shop is still a little quiet." Looking at the Huaxia Snack Shop, which had fewer than 30,000 followers, Kong Que posted a post without thinking: [A snack shop recommended by a fan. I like their coffee. Yeah, the prices are right too!]
Peacock is a new painter who has only recently become famous. His every move is being watched by many people in the Capital Star. His nearly 10 million fans were immediately curious when they saw that someone who had not posted anything for three months suddenly posted such an introduction, especially when the person who introduced Peacock came out excitedly to claim the work.
"Ahhh, I want to buy the same coffee too! Drink the same coffee as my idol!"
"Pfft, isn't this the snack shop that became famous at the end of March because of a thief on today's news? I've tried their snacks before, and they taste quite novel~"
"I'm so impressed. I'm going to check it out now!"
…
Meanwhile, regular customers who suddenly realized the Huaxia Snack Shop online store was completely packed and unable to get in were also terrified, posting in the chat group: [What's going on? I was just trying to buy some spicy snacks, but I can't even get in! Did someone report them and they took them down again? Crying.jpg]
[No, I didn't notice anything! Wait, I came in, but why are there only a few snacks left?]
What happened? It's been three minutes and I still haven't gotten in!
Ten minutes later.
Xue Luo made 50,000 yuan with tears in his eyes. He watched as all the items sold in the online store were sold out, and also heard the crying of everyone in the after-sales group.
He immediately reassured everyone: "It's okay, it's okay. We can restock it tomorrow and there's no purchase limit. Please be patient and wait."
"But why are there so many people suddenly here?"
Soon, Happy Bean and Mr. Rice Cake also came back with the news. It turned out that the famous painter Peacock suddenly recommended it on his own Star Blog.
"Peacock!"
Xueluo was surprised and held down the white cat that was about to run away. "Could it be the Mr. Peacock who came to our store yesterday? Hmm, we have the same name and we both bought coffee!"
The white cat meowed disdainfully.
Lan Mu then swept across the light curtain window next to Xue Luo's hand, which was the recommended blog post by Peacock on Xingbo.
"Mr. Peacock doesn't seem easy to get along with, but he's quite warm-hearted!" Xue Luo said with emotion.
White cat: “Meow——”
Idiot, you are being targeted, do you know that?
Xueluo thought it was responding to her, and smiled widely. She couldn't help but rub its face. The white cat with a cold face also sighed helplessly.
