The girl who was about to ask for WeChat paused, momentarily lost in thought, and just silently looked at the girl in front of her wearing a cool black sweater.
According to this person, she must be a mother of two.
But you can't tell at all...
Putting aside her own appearance, you probably couldn't find a girl as beautiful as her anywhere in the whole school.
"Hello?" Mu Zhimu pressed his advantage.
"It's alright, it's alright!"
The two girls felt they had been caught red-handed and hurriedly paid the bill and left.
"I...I wasn't nervous just now, was I?"
Seeing them walk away, Liang Zhirou almost immediately lost her composure, her hands clenched tightly together, and she reverted to her silly and naive self.
My heart is beating so fast.
"No." Chen Lu gave her a thumbs up. "Sister, step on me!"
Just now, this mature and sophisticated aura was at least two times more imposing than the drunken Liang Zhirou.
Who can withstand this?
This is outrageous! How can this goofball pull off any style?
"Can you play it when we get home? People are asking for your WeChat, and I'm... I'm a little jealous..."
While clinging tightly to his arm and acting coquettishly, Liang Zhirou used a spoon to feed him a spoonful of pudding.
"Okay, okay." Chen Lu agreed repeatedly, obediently opening his mouth to eat, wondering how this simpleton had learned to dribble and bump people.
Although he doesn't particularly like sweets, if Liang Zhirou feeds him like this, he'll eat even razor blades.
"..."
The next second he vomited it all out, his whole face contorted in pain.
Ugh! This pudding is so sour it's unbearable. He said it smells weird.
This silly fool is adding vinegar!
Chen Lu turned around and saw the girl running away from the scene.
This naughty goofball.
I'll settle the score with her when I get home.
...
By evening, just before school ended and office workers got off work, the coffee shop was finally empty except for the couple.
Chen Lu sat lazily on the bench, quietly looking out the window.
It was nearly dusk, and the setting sun cast a golden glow on the shimmering river.
“If a boss worth over 100 million were to work in a coffee shop, people who know him would laugh at you and ask what you’re after,” Liang Zhirou said softly as she walked to his side.
"I just want to make my wife happy."
"..."
Liang Zhirou stopped talking, just pursed her lips, and silently sat down next to Chen Lu.
"My wife runs a coffee shop... I suddenly remembered a food-themed anime." Chen Lu smacked his lips and suddenly said.
I don't know how many people still remember this anime, but he's already in pain.
Because of her work, Liang Zhirou has been catching up on various anime over the past few years, and now she understands many of the references and jokes people use.
“You also have both a son and a daughter.” Liang Zhirou suddenly discovered a common ground.
"I definitely want to be happier."
Chen Lushen agreed. Although many otaku dream of being hit by a dump truck and ending up in the world of anime, there are some worlds that ordinary people would never dream of going to.
For example, the retreating dwarf, the Martian cockroach, and the movie he and Liang Zhirou were talking about.
The two chatted softly, and the winter sun shone warmly into the coffee shop.
After a long day of work, I feel especially relaxed and comfortable at this moment.
“Actually, I’m a little worried that opening this shop might negatively influence my child’s upbringing.” Liang Zhirou looked at the sunset in the distance and placed her hand on the back of his hand. “My child is still in kindergarten, and I’m already doing what I want to do. It feels a bit selfish…”
“You don’t understand, do you? You can’t discipline children too much. You have to take it step by step, like boiling a frog.” Chen Lu said very seriously, “The water temperature can’t be too high all at once, otherwise the children will become rebellious. It also can’t be too low, otherwise it won’t be effective.”
Liang Zhirou sat beside him, her chin resting on the back of her hand, listening quietly for a long time before suddenly smiling at him.
"What are you laughing at?" Chen Lu looked at her strangely.
"I just suddenly felt like laughing."
The girl slowly closed her eyes and rested her head on his shoulder.
She seemed very tired today, and looked like she was about to fall asleep soon after.
Chen Lu put his arm around the girl's slender waist, savoring the fragrance of her hair, and sat quietly for a long time, feeling exceptionally peaceful.
Love should be like this: after the initial passion fades, only quiet and peaceful afternoons remain.
The flutter in my heart when I confessed my feelings was like a pebble thrown into water, creating ripples.
Although with the passage of time, things will eventually return to calm...
But it will never disappear.
For the rest of their lives, they were nothing but lingering memories.
Suddenly, I felt a pang of sadness.
He accompanied Liang Zhirou through the difficult journey, and it took a full seven years to get to where she is today.
...That doesn't seem right.
This simpleton has always been with him; Liang Zhirou isn't the only one who has come out of the past.
After a long while.
"How about you attend our child's parent-teacher meeting?" Chen Lu suddenly suggested, fearing that the kindergarten might organize some silly activity that required parental involvement.
Liang Zhirou: "Why don't you just kill me..."
