Hearing the store manager say this, Vinaite replied, "Then I'll have a cup of mixed coffee."
The store manager's face lit up with excitement.
Satania said, "Coffee is whatever, Jia Ba Li, come serve me!"
Jia Ba Li raised her fist again.
"Calm down, Tian Zhen!" the store manager quickly stopped her.
If she hit a customer in front of him, how could this coffee shop continue to operate?
Vinaite hurriedly said, "Then we'll have three cups of mixed coffee!"
Rafiel blinked and said, "Can you have Xi Jun make mine?"
The store manager revealed a suggestive smile and said, "Of course."
Rafiel and Yan Xi exchanged glances, and they both understood.
Having the store manager make it would be inconvenient for any tricks, and Yan Xi hadn't particularly looked after Satania yet.
The store manager took the menu away, letting Jia Ba Li continue to accompany the guests.
"Yan Xi, the customer specifically requested you to make it, so do a good job," the store manager returned to the bar and winked at Yan Xi.
Even a fool could tell what he misunderstood.
"Back in the day, my connection with my wife was also because of coffee beans..." the store manager began to recount his old love story while preparing the coffee.
To be honest, Yan Xi had no interest in the love stories of middle-aged people.
Fortunately, the store manager was serious about making coffee and didn't have time to ramble, focusing his energy on the equipment in his hands.
Yan Xi also started making coffee, adding strong ingredients.
He remembered that Satania had a poor sense of taste and probably wouldn't notice.
But that didn't stop him from adding more coffee grounds to keep that girl awake at night, making her late for school the next day and getting punished by the teacher.
Yan Xi prepared a special energy drink and brought it along with the two cups of mixed coffee.
"Enjoy."
The well-dressed young man in a suit was the store manager, while Yan Xi was still in his regular clothes, not having had time to change.
"Thank you."
Vinaite took a sip of the coffee and gave it high praise.
"This is so good! How did you make it?"
The store manager instantly felt like a spring breeze, every pore on his body relaxing.
"Ahem, this cup of coffee is made from 20 different coffee beans, each personally picked from its origin..."
Once the store manager started talking about coffee, he couldn't stop, and while Vinaite listened intently, the others began to feel a bit drowsy.
"Is it really that good? Let me try." Satania reached for her cup.
Yan Xi and Rafiel exchanged a glance and subtly nodded.
Rafiel, understanding the cue, loudly exclaimed, "Oh, there's a running pineapple bun outside!"
"Pineapple bun, where?!" Satania stood up excitedly.
Yan Xi seized the opportunity to push the special coffee forward, and Rafiel seamlessly switched it with Satania's cup.
The level of coordination was so high that one would believe they had rehearsed it beforehand!
The two's actions went unnoticed by Satania, the storytelling store manager, and the attentive Vinaite.
Jia Ba Li, however, saw what happened and silently gave a thumbs up.
"What? There's nothing outside!" Satania complained.
Rafiel smiled and said, "Sorry, sorry, I might have seen it wrong."
"Seriously." Satania mumbled, taking a big gulp of Yan Xi's special coffee.
After finishing, Satania blinked a couple of times and said, "It seems to have no flavor."
Yan Xi thought to himself, because you're a taste idiot!
Rafiel looked at Yan Xi in confusion, as if asking if he had made a mistake.
Yan Xi returned a reassuring look.
"They say coffee is an adult's drink; this classmate might not be of that age yet," Yan Xi said.
"What? No way!" Satania crossed her arms and stubbornly said, "I see, this is the taste of adults. I understand now; it's really good!"
"..."
Satania's exaggerated performance made it obvious to anyone that she was just being stubborn.
As the coffee shop farce came to an end, Rafiel and the others settled the bill and prepared to leave.
Jia Ba Li initially wanted to sneak away with them, but since it wasn't off-duty time yet, she was pulled back by Yan Xi.
"Hey, I'm going to hit you!"
Jia Ba Li was grabbed by the collar like a cat and was pulled away.
The fabric couldn't bear Jia Ba Li's weight, and if she didn't want to burst out of her clothes, she could only go along with it.
Another humiliating act! Jia Ba Li strongly condemned.
Before leaving, Rafiel took the opportunity to quietly ask, "What was up with that cup of coffee?"
Yan Xi replied, "Satania is probably a taste idiot; that cup of coffee had enough caffeine in it, so she won't be sleeping tonight."
For a demon with no resistance to caffeine, you could say it's useless.
Rafiel felt it wasn't enough and wanted more.
Yan Xi smirked; indeed, you are the true demon!
He helplessly explained, "The effect will probably last until morning. She'll be late for school and dozing off in class tomorrow."
Rafiel's bright eyes sparkled with admiration for Yan Xi's dirty deed.
"As expected of Xi Jun!"
"...Can you call me something more normal?"
Rafiel blinked and playfully said, "Refusal is a privilege of beautiful girls."
The scheming angel gained extra points for her looks, and even Yan Xi found her cute when she winked.
So terrifying!
"By the way, we haven't exchanged contact information yet." Rafiel took out her phone again.
"That's not necessary..."
"Then should I go ask the store manager for it?" Rafiel asked with a smile.
The store manager?
He would love to play matchmaker, so he would probably give it.
Yan Xi was in a subtly conflicted state of mind at that moment.
Although Rafiel was quite scheming, reason told him to keep his distance, but being pursued by such a beautiful angel stirred a small sense of vanity in him, making him feel a bit secretly pleased.
There were plenty of ways to distance himself; was this behavior of his a case of wanting to catch but feigning indifference?
Yan Xi sighed, realizing he was also the type who said he didn't want it, but his body was very honest.
Tsk, so cheap!
Under Rafiel's coercion, Yan Xi 'reluctantly' gave out his contact information.
As Rafiel and the others left, Jia Ba Li quietly said beside Yan Xi, "Hey, you jerk senior."
"If you don't want to call me senior, you don't have to." Yan Xi replied.
'Senior' is a term of respect, but unfortunately, it was prefixed with 'jerk.'
"Then just call me jerk?"
"You've got some sense, you idiot newbie!"
"Huh? You only came a month earlier than me; what's so great about that!" Jia Ba Li retorted.
"A day earlier is still a senior! One day is a senior, a lifetime is a senior!"
"Damn it, you jerk senior!"
