Chapter 1652: Sometimes Sunny, Sometimes Cloudy

Chapter 1751: Sunny and cloudy

The coffee shop next door has been opened, and the library has become more lively. Many students, even if they don't want to hang out in the library, will go to the coffee shop to sit, and some who need to read will naturally come to the library to borrow a favorite book and sit there for an afternoon.

Jiangning's coffee seems to have the aroma of high-end coffee, which makes students love it, and even teachers will come to him to pack coffee for work.

In a blink of an eye, it was Tuesday morning. Duan Shuxian was wiping the dust on the work counter. She didn't know someone was coming. She squatted and wiped the bottom table seriously. As she wiped, she felt a shadow covering her head. She couldn't help but look up. It happened that the man was holding his arm and looking at her.

The two pairs of eyes bumped into each other unexpectedly, one pair of warm smiles, and the other pair of clear surprise.

"Teacher Xi! Good morning." Duan Shuxian didn't expect him to arrive at seven o'clock. She was a little shy and gathered the fine hair around her ears.

"Good morning." The man smiled in a low and charming voice.

Duan Shuxian was a little intoxicated by what she heard, and at the same time, she saw his heart filled with joy.

"Teacher Xi, do you want to borrow a book?" Duan Shuxian asked him.

"Well, I'll look for the book later." Xi Jingchen was not in a hurry.

Duan Shuxian smiled and said, "Then I'll wash my hands."

After that, she took the basin and rag to the storage room, and Xi Jingchen also stepped in and casually picked some books from the bookshelf to read.

Duan Shuxian washed her hands and came out, looking at the man's figure in the bookshelf under the morning light. He was wearing an elegant black suit and a white shirt that was buttoned up meticulously to the last button, as if it was his own aura, leaving no room for others.

Abstinence but sexiness, a combination of contradictions.

Duan Shuxian always had a feeling in her heart that this man seemed to be born in a royal family, and he should be a prince, because the elegance and nobility he exuded were too real, so real that it didn't seem like an ordinary person could do it.

In fact, he didn't say it, but she also had a hunch that his family background would definitely not be an ordinary family.

Xi Jingchen was putting a book back, and his thin lips suddenly smiled. He knew she was watching him from the side.

He then slowly turned his head to look at her, "Am I pretty?"

Duan Shuxian was startled, her pretty face flushed, and she hurriedly looked away, trying to cover up her ability to be a fangirl.

"I'm sorry, did I disturb you!" After saying that, she turned around and prepared to leave.

"No." A male voice behind her smiled and replied, "I like you to accompany me."

This sentence is really direct enough. Duan Shuxian just turned around and stood there for a few seconds as if she was pressing an acupoint.

"Sister Duan, Sister Duan, are you there?" A crisp female voice came from outside the door.

Duan Shuxian knew it was Shanshan, an employee of the coffee shop next door, and she quickly responded, "I'm here!"

"Sister Duan, I'll put your milk and bread on your table, come and drink it!"

Duan Shuxian immediately walked out quickly and called Shanshan, "Shanshan, wait a minute, don't send it to me in the future."

Shanshan smiled and said, "This is the nutritious breakfast that our boss carefully prepares for you every day, don't refuse his kindness!"

"Shanshan, wait a minute, I'll give you money to take back." Duan Shuxian went to find the money.

Shanshan smiled and said, "No, this is a gift from our boss, and he made it for you personally, it's free! He said he would waive your breakfast money in the future."

Duan Shuxian looked at Shanshan who was jumping away with a smile, and on her table, on a small tray, there was a cup of fragrant hot milk and a piece of exquisite milk-flavored bread.

"The owner of the coffee shop treats you well." A male voice came from behind, asking in a somewhat inaudible way.

Duan Shuxian's pretty face suddenly turned red, and she bit her red lips and said, "I told him not to send it."

Xi Jingchen's heart is innocent enough, isn't it obvious enough? The owner of the cafe has a good impression of her. Only a man who likes a woman will do such a flattering and dedicated work.

"Borrow these two books, register them." Xi Jingchen put the books in front of her, staring at Duan Shuxian with complicated eyes.

Duan Shuxian looked up and touched his eyes, as if the warm smile in the morning disappeared, just like the bright sun suddenly turned into a cloudy day.

Duan Shuxian had to turn on the computer, registered for him, and put the book in front of him, "It's recorded."

Xi Jingchen picked up the book and stared at her, "I won't disturb you to enjoy your breakfast."

After that, he turned and left.

Duan Shuxian opened her lips slightly, as if she wanted to call him, but she held back. She propped up her chin and looked at the breakfast, and she was also in distress. The breakfast of the previous two days was also sent by Jiang Ning, but she really couldn't afford it!

Just then, Aunt Huang came and looked at the breakfast on her table. She smiled and joked, "It was sent by Boss Jiang again! Look how thoughtful he is!"

"Aunt Huang, is there any way to stop him from sending it again? I really can't eat his food for free every day." Duan Shuxian asked her for help.

"What? Such a great thing, you don't want it? It means he treats you well!"

"No, I have to pay him." After saying that, Duan Shuxian took out a hundred yuan from her wallet and walked towards the cafe next to the library.

Aunt Huang shook her head, "Little Duan really doesn't appreciate it!"

After Xi Jingchen came out, he did not return to his office immediately, but walked into the coffee shop next door. It was Shanshan who greeted him. Shanshan's eyes almost popped out. She thought the boss was handsome, but she didn't expect the teacher here to be so handsome!

He was just like a male protagonist from a comic book! His temperament was invincible.

"A cup of coffee."

"What flavor?"

"Cappuccino."

"Okay! Please wait." Shanshan immediately went to the work counter.

There were not many people at this time. Most of the students were night owls, animals that hibernate during the day and come out at night, so the coffee shop in the morning was also particularly quiet. The breath of spring outside the window was overwhelming, and it was even a rhythm of summer.

The light music in the coffee shop was flowing, and Xi Jingchen sat in a corner, which was very inconspicuous.

At this moment, he heard a familiar female voice, "Shanshan, is Boss Jiang here?"

It was Duan Shuxian's voice. Xi Jingchen squinted his eyes and looked at the counter from the middle of a shelf next to him, just in time to see Duan Shuxian standing there asking.

"Boss, Miss Duan is looking for you." Shanshan shouted to a workroom behind her.

After a while, Jiang Ning was seen wearing an apron and a casual and sunny outfit. For women, such a man is somewhat attractive.

"Shuxian, what's wrong? Is your breakfast to your liking today?" Jiang Ning asked with a smile.

"Boss Jiang, your breakfast is very delicious. Thank you for giving it to me every day. Now, I want to settle the bill with you. How much is it?" Duan Shuxian also asked very politely.

"Not counting the money." Jiang Ning said with a smile.

"No, you must count the money, otherwise, I won't eat your breakfast." Duan Shuxian didn't want to eat his breakfast for free, which made her feel uneasy.

"Okay then! The same price as the cafeteria, I'll charge you eight yuan for breakfast every day." Jiang Ning was very favorable.

Duan Shuxian still felt that he seemed to have taken too much advantage of him. The bread sold in the bakery outside would cost more than ten or twenty yuan, plus a glass of high-quality milk, it would cost more than thirty yuan.

"It's too cheap, I think you're losing money." Duan Shuxian said cutely.

Jiang Ning also burst out laughing, "Not at a loss."

"Then fifteen yuan." Duan Shuxian gave him a leave increase.

Shanshan couldn't stand it anymore, she laughed, "Sister Duan, how can you be like this! Our boss is a man of small profits but quick turnover, even if he gives breakfast to other students, it won't be so expensive."

"Then twelve yuan." Duan Shuxian bargained.

"Ten yuan! In fact, I'll make half of your money with ten yuan." Jiang Ning smiled and gave her the price.

"Okay, I'll pay you breakfast every day in the future." Duan Shuxian said, and gave him the money.

"Then let's settle it after a month! Then I'll give you a discount." Jiang Ning refused.

Duan Shuxian thought about it, "Okay then! I'll settle it for a month, I'll go back to work first."

At least he calculated the money, she felt a little relieved, his breakfast was really delicious.

Duan Shuxian left, but Shanshan asked Jiang Ning curiously, "Boss, you are so nice to Sister Duan, do you like her?"

Jiang Ning looked at the door, his thin lips raised with a smile, "She looks like an old friend of mine."

"Who is it?"

"My deceased girlfriend." Jiang Ning's eyes seemed to be seeking a touch of redemption, the light from Duan Shuxian, and he turned around and went back into the workshop.
