James, this foreigner, is always very outgoing... well, maybe that's just how foreigners are, they're more extroverted!
"Ladies, why are you out in this cold weather?"
Ye Wanying said in time:
"It's not very convenient inside right now, let's go somewhere else."
James had no objection to this:
"Okay! I'm okay with everything! Miss Ye, it's up to you."
Tsk tsk....
So, it turns out that international friends also enjoy flattery?
She didn't choose a perfunctory place, after all, Ye Wanying is a person who values ritual and enjoyment, how could she let herself be so perfunctory?
The three of them went to the only coffee shop in City B.
It's said that this coffee shop is run by a native foreigner, and all the ingredients are imported from abroad.
It wasn't even open before the Lunar New Year; it just opened recently, and it's incredibly popular.
Chinese people generally like to join in the fun and follow trends.
When the group arrived, there was indeed only one empty table left in the coffee shop. If it weren't for James, the foreigner, the owner probably wouldn't have given up that table for them, as there was a long queue of people waiting outside.
Ye Xiaoyu had never been to a place like this before, and she was a little nervous.
Ye Wanying tugged at her cousin:
"Relax, do you think there are more foreigners or more people from our empire here?"
Well... if you put it that way, it seems like there are only a few foreigners, while there are quite a few Chinese people.
Looking around, you can see people drinking coffee by gulping it down in big gulps.
Seeing this, Ye Xiaoyu instantly felt much more relaxed.
Ye Wanying certainly saw those scenes too, but there are no hard and fast rules about how people should drink!
Since they've paid, they're customers, and whatever they want is their business.
No one said anything!
We come from different countries, so let's not be so demanding.
Otherwise, let our foreign friends try picking up peanuts with chopsticks!
After the three were seated, a waitress approached with the menu. The waitress was a genuine foreign girl, speaking slightly broken Imperial English.
Good afternoon. Would you like something to drink?
James was very gentlemanly and gestured for the two ladies to order first.
The waiter walked over to the Ye sisters and placed the menu on the table in front of them.
There aren't many categories, so you can scan them all at a glance.
That's true, things aren't so fancy at this point.
Two cappuccinos.
Although the waiter could speak Chinese, the menu was entirely in English. To avoid making her cousin too nervous, Ye Wanying ordered for her and moved the menu to James across from her.
"We're ready, you can order now."
James took the menu and looked it over carefully before finally ordering a freshly brewed coffee.
While waiting for our food, we started talking about serious business.
"Miss Ye, Little Yu must have already mentioned it to you, right? When I went back this time, Miss Ye, your Longevity Painting caused quite a stir in my family. Now, at least twenty or thirty people want it!"
"Twenty or thirty sets are impossible!"
They refused outright.
It's impossible to do in the first place, so there's no need to drag it out.
Although James was somewhat disappointed, he understood the situation to some extent, knowing that a single piece of embroidery takes a lot of time, and that he had only conveyed the message to relatives and friends before.
"Okay, so Miss Ye, what's the maximum number of these you can make?"
It seems that international friends who stay in the empire for too long have become just as slick as the Chinese!
