Chapter 412: Oh-hoo! Luck is against the heavens!

~5 min read 862 words

Night.

A little past six.

Twilight was sinking, streetlights were beginning to light up, spreading a layer of warm yellow tone on the streets of Shibuya.

At the entrance of Starlight Coffee Shop, warm light shone from the glass windows, reflecting on the somewhat crowded sidewalk in front of the door.

Qiutian Shana remembered that Jin Teng Weixi had mentioned last time that Natsume-kun worked at this branch.

So she "happened" to propose walking in this direction.

After all, at school, she could never find a suitable opportunity to contact Natsume-kun naturally.

After the baseball game last time, she wanted to go up to congratulate him, but Natsume-kun was surrounded by girls, and she couldn't squeeze in at all.

If she just followed the crowd and said "congratulations," it would seem too ordinary and couldn't leave a deep impression on him.

She had to suppress her impulse and wait for other better opportunities.

And now, the opportunity seemed to have come!

With Jin Teng Weixi by her side, she thought that as a best friend, she would at least help create some conditions, right?

But catching a glimpse of Chao Wu Heye, who was tirelessly pursuing her, Qiutian Shana felt a wave of helplessness and irritability in her heart.

If it weren't for the fact that Jin Teng Weixi and Shankou Botai, these two good friends, were familiar with Chao Wu Heye, she really wouldn't have been able to do it so absolutely and give him the cold shoulder; otherwise, she would have found an excuse to shake him off long ago.

She had already rejected this guy several times, both openly and secretly, but the other party still stuck to her like nothing happened; it was truly annoying!

However, it didn't matter.

As long as she clearly expressed her liking for Natsume-kun and let him see the "gap" between her and Natsume-kun with his own eyes, after a long time, he would know to retreat in the face of difficulties!

Qiutian Shana turned her head, her low twin tails swaying gently with the movement, and a cute smile bloomed on her face, proposing:

"Just finished dinner, a bit thirsty. Why don't we go in, have a cup of coffee, and eat some dessert?"

Chao Wu Heye didn't know at all that Natsume Chikage worked here; hearing his crush say she wanted to go in, he immediately echoed:

"Okay, I also feel a bit thirsty. Jin Teng-san, Botai, what do you think?"

Shankou Botai looked at the "Starlight Coffee Shop" sign, vaguely feeling it was a bit familiar, as if someone had mentioned it recently.

But thinking carefully, he didn't catch that trace of impression, so he let it go.

He had walked for a long time and was indeed a bit tired, feeling that sitting down to drink something was not bad, so he nodded:

"I can too."

Jin Teng Weixi looked at the familiar coffee shop storefront in front of her, her red lips unconsciously pursing slightly on her cold and arrogant face.

She moved her gaze to Qiutian Shana's face, which was full of expectation, and instantly understood—this girl was absolutely doing it on purpose.

From the moment they started walking, she felt something was wrong.

Now that they "happened" to circle here, the purpose was self-evident.

This silly girl, how could she be so persistent?

Natsume Chikage is simply not suitable for her!

What's the use of just having a good-looking face?

Wealth, talent, family background—aren't these more important?

Although Natsume Chikage has some strength and luck in baseball, it might just be that he practiced privately before.

The so-called "practicing for one day and winning against Zhongdao Wushi," she didn't believe it at all!

Even Zhongdao Wushi couldn't be spotted by professional scouts; Natsume's student-level baseball strength was simply not worth mentioning in front of a real genius.

A student specialty that cannot be converted into actual social capital loses its significance once graduated.

To be honest, Jin Teng Weixi really didn't want to have any unnecessary contact with Natsume Chikage anymore.

But right now, her best friend and two friends all agreed to go in, so she couldn't refuse to be an outlier.

And... letting Shana see with her own eyes how Natsume Chikage works hard at the coffee shop for an hourly wage of only 800 yen might make her realize clearly that they are simply people from two different worlds.

Thinking this way, going in to see was fine.

"Then let's go in." Jin Teng Weixi said flatly.

Qiutian Shana was happy in her heart, knowing that Weixi wouldn't tear down her stage, and immediately hugged her arm affectionately:

"That's great! Let's go in quickly!"

However, just as they were preparing to push the door, Qiutian Shana was astonished to find that there was a not-so-short queue at the entrance of the coffee shop.

"This... I've been to other branches of Starlight Coffee Shop, and they never need to queue; how come this shop has so many people?"

"This... I've been to other branches of Starlight Cafe, and I never had to wait in line. Why are there so many people at this one?"
