Chapter 29: Teasing the Scarlet Witch Madly! Chatting Freely About Life and the Future!

The coffee and dessert time that followed.

Su Yi and Wanda chatted very pleasantly.

How pleasant, exactly?

Wanda had talked so much that her emotions ran high, and on top of that, she was happy.

Her face had turned red from chatting!

She only suddenly realized this after touching her own face.

Her face was this hot?

Wanda touched her own face, wondering if she had been too forward and enthusiastic.

Because in front of Su Yi,

so many of the topics had been ones Wanda brought up herself to chat about!

For example, asking Su Yi what kind of life he liked.

Su Yi replied: "I like a happy, steady, laid-back... leisurely life."

That was Su Yi's true feelings.

He really did like a life of eating then sleeping, sleeping then playing, and after playing going back to eating then sleeping.

Isn't that great?

And Wanda, after hearing it, replied especially happily.

"We're the same!"

"I really love this kind of life you're talking about too!"

"This is exactly the future I've been dreaming of!"

After saying that,

Wanda's face turned even redder.

She didn't even know whether she'd blushed in front of Su Yi from the shyness of chatting about the two of them's future,

or simply from pure excitement.

Forget it, whatever.

It's red either way.

But in the café,

because Wanda had just spoken too loudly,

the people around all looked over.

Su Yi gave them a small apologetic smile.

The people around turned back around.

Wanda looked back to check.

Then she apologized to Su Yi in a small voice.

"Sorry, I got too worked up."

"It's fine." Su Yi picked up a cup of coffee, took a sip, and said.

"Just say what's on your mind."

"Too many introverted, withdrawn people — even people with depression — it's because their hearts never get to stretch out."

"Chatting is a channel that opens the heart."

"Happiness is the heart's medicine that cures every illness."

Wanda nodded, indicating she very much agreed.

She felt an ever-growing sense of认同 with Su Yi, and a sense of亲切.

Simply put, she was liking him more and more.

After chatting for quite a while,

Wanda lowered her head and took a sip of coffee.

Then she savored it, looked around to make sure no one was watching, and said softly to Su Yi.

"I think the coffee here isn't as good as your milk tea."

Hearing that, Su Yi laughed.

Coffee is coffee, milk tea is milk tea.

The only thing the two of them might have in common is that they both contain caffeine.

But fundamentally, they're two different things.

It just depends on which one you prefer to drink.

But Su Yi thought for a moment, then suddenly suggested.

"Want to try mixing milk tea into the coffee?"

"!?" Wanda's eyes widened: "Can I?"

"I haven't tried it anyway." Su Yi smiled. "But you can give it a try."

"But I've finished my milk tea."

"But mine isn't finished yet."

As Su Yi set his milk tea down,

Wanda didn't bother wondering where exactly this milk tea had come from.

She first looked left and right.

After confirming no one was paying attention to this spot,

Wanda took Su Yi's milk tea, then poured it into her own half-finished coffee cup.

Then immediately put the milk tea back.

Then picked up a spoon and stirred the coffee.

Su Yi took the milk tea back.

Then he and Wanda both stared at her cup.

Very quickly.

Wanda set down the spoon she had been stirring with.

Then she picked up the cup and took a sip.

"Mm..."

After tasting it, Wanda first let out a string of nasal sounds.

Then she smacked her lips and said.

"Bitter on the inside, with a bit of sweetness."

"Then it gets bitter again going down the throat, then sweet again."

"~?" Su Yi was taken aback.

Isn't this just the coconut latte from back home?

"You'll know once you try it."

Seeing Su Yi's face full of question marks.

Wanda placed the cup in Su Yi's hand, gesturing for him to try it too.

And she didn't even mind that both of them were drinking from the same cup!

"This cup..."

"No problem, hurry up and try it."

Wanda grabbed Su Yi's hand, urging him to drink quickly.

Since she didn't mind it.

Su Yi picked up the cup and took a sip.

"Mm..."

He also let out a string of nasal sounds, then nodded in agreement.

"It's like coffee with sugar water added — both bitter and sweet, but mostly bitter."

"Right?"

Wanda happily blinked her eyes.
