When he went down the stairs, Zhuang Liang saw a beautifully decorated coffee shop. There were about ten customers sitting in the shop.
As Zhuang Liang was still standing on the stairs, he could almost see everything in the coffee shop. For a moment, Zhuang Liang's gaze was locked on a girl dressed as a waitress who was serving coffee to a table of customers.
The girl seemed to have noticed Zhuang Liang as well. Her deep blue eyes sized him up and gave him a warm smile before she continued with her work.
Zhuang Liang knew that now was not the time to disturb Dong Xiang, so he simply found an empty seat in the coffee shop and sat down. Dong Xiang did not say anything, but took advantage of the free time to serve Zhuang Liang a sandwich and a cup of coffee.
Looking at the people in the coffee shop, enjoying the warm afternoon sun in winter, Zhuang Liang's current state and the despondent life from last night were completely different worlds. However, the people around him were speaking Japanese. Although Zhuang Liang could understand a few words sometimes, most of them still felt like he was listening to an alien language.
Because of Zhuang Liang's handsome appearance, the people in the coffee shop focused their attention on Zhuang Liang. Under such gazes, Zhuang Liang lasted until closing time in the afternoon.
After Dong Xiang cleaned up the shop, she finally had some free time. She walked over to Zhuang Liang. The other waiters in the coffee shop also gathered around Zhuang Liang and sized him up.
There were two other waiters. One was Furujima Yuan 'er, whom Zhuang Liang had met on the deserted island. There was also a young lady with a very good temperament. She had black hair, a slender figure, and an exquisite face. Zhuang Liang felt that she looked familiar, but he could not remember who this beauty was.
Dong Xiang and the others were naturally speaking Japanese. After a series of questions that Zhuang Liang did not understand, Zhuang Liang could only say in English through gritted teeth,"Can you speak English?"ican'tspeakJapanese”
Dong Xiang couldn't help but chuckle when she heard Zhuang Liang's broken English and his current appearance. However, this laughter was not just a smile at Zhuang Liang's comical appearance. It was more like she had found an old friend she hadn't seen for many years. In short, the current Dong Xiang might have been Zhuang Liang's misconception, but she had matured a lot.
(Please make up the following dialogue in your mind. It will be very funny.)
After laughing lightly, Dong Xiang also said to Zhuang Liang in English,"How did you become like this?"”
Zhuang Liang had obviously expected Dong Xiang to ask this question first. He could only pose awkwardly and then act cute." Am I cute?”
This action made Gujian Yuan 'er only twitch her lips, but Dong Xiang and the beauty beside her were very tempted. From the looks of it, they had the urge to hug Zhuang Liang in their arms.
Zhuang Liang moved his body backward. It was not because of anything else, but because Gujian Yuan Er looked at Zhuang Liang after seeing Dong Xiang and the beautiful woman's actions. Zhuang Liang felt that if he really threw himself into the arms of these two beautiful women, he would be half-dead by Gujian Yuan Er.
Zhuang Liang tactfully changed the topic and continued to speak in broken English," Let's not talk about me first. What about you guys? How did you guys get back here?”
Upon hearing Zhuang Liang's question, Dong Xiang's expression darkened. She slowly said," Actually, we've been back for a year.”
This answer made Zhuang Liang somewhat stunned. He felt that he had only lost consciousness for half a day, but why had Dong Xiang and the others returned a year ago?
After pondering for a long time, Zhuang Liang could only conclude that it was the guy who claimed to be the network manager. Even if it wasn't him, he should at least know what was going on. After all, that guy was a little too mysterious.
Dong Xiang seemed to be lost in her memories. While I was thinking, she continued,"Actually, I've been trying to convince myself that the deserted island was just a dream.。。。”
Seeing Dong Xiang like this, Zhuang Liang felt a little sad for some reason. He reached out and gently patted Dong Xiang's little head. He used a childish voice and said," Aren't I back?”
This scene made Dong Xiang, who had been a little sad just a moment ago, laugh softly again. After all, Zhuang Liang's current appearance made people want to laugh.
Seeing that Dong Xiang was no longer as dispirited as before, the gloominess in Zhuang Liang's heart dissipated.
Looking at the clock on the wall of the coffee shop, it was already evening. Zhuang Liang and Dong Xiang went upstairs together. Just as the two of them walked to the stairs, a figure appeared in front of Zhuang Liang.
The first time that person saw Zhuang Liang, he was also a little surprised. It was quite similar to the first time Dong Xiang saw Zhuang Liang like this. However, this person's observation ability was clearly stronger than Dong Xiang's. Even if Zhuang Liang did not have any iconic things on him, he still recognized Zhuang Liang very quickly.
"Manager," Dong Xiang looked at the person in front of her and seemed a little puzzled. She asked,"What's the matter?"”
Obviously, the person Zhuang Liang met at the staircase was none other than the manager of the coffee shop, Yoshimura Kengchan.
Seeing that he had met them before, Zhuang Liang naturally greeted them. However, he used very poor Japanese. After all, Zhuang Liang used to be an anime geek, so he could still speak a few basic Japanese.
Yoshimura Kozen (referred to as the store manager in the future) nodded and motioned for me to follow him.
Just like that, under Dong Xiang's puzzled gaze, I followed Kengshan to a room that looked like a living room.
After the manager invited Zhuang Liang in, he slowly closed the door and sat down opposite Zhuang Liang.
The atmosphere was a little silent. Zhuang Liang couldn't stand the awkwardness and spoke first, but he still used English.
" What can I do for you?" Zhuang Liang regretted asking because the store manager was an old man, and he probably didn't know English.
However, what happened next surprised Zhuang Liang. The manager actually replied to Zhuang Liang in English that was not inferior to Dong Xiang's.
"Are you human?" The manager didn't answer Zhuang Liang's question. Instead, he asked Zhuang Liang a question.
Zhuang Liang was stunned at first. He didn't understand why the manager asked this, but he nodded naturally because there was nothing to hide.
However, Zhuang Liang felt that something was not right after a second. No matter how kind the store manager was, he was still a bastard. Moreover, he was an SSS-class super expert before he retired. Now, he asked this question for no reason. It was suspicious. Moreover, Zhuang Liang's big sword was not with him. If the store manager really made trouble, it would be difficult for him to escape with his current strength. He might even die here.
The store manager seemed to have noticed Zhuang Liang's doubts. He smiled and nodded. Then, he walked to the table beside him and picked up the coffee brewing equipment on the table to make coffee.
This scene made Zhuang Liang a little curious. He did not understand why he wanted to make coffee as he spoke. However, Zhuang Liang could only choose to sit here. After all, this was someone else's territory.
