    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    Yuan Bozhu didn't know how things developed like this.

    He and Qin Rui sat in a whiskey tavern that was open during the day on a Saturday afternoon.

    Probably because the time was so tricky that there was no one else in the tavern except them.

    Qin Rui dragged him to sit at the bar as if he was booking a room, with a whole row of wine in front of him.

    Yuan Bozhu told him, "I don't drink."

    As a practitioner in the past, he had to abstain from drinking and sex.

    In the eighteen years since he came to this world, Yuan Bozhu has never touched alcohol.

    Yuan Jilang believes that drinking will kill people's will, so he strictly prohibits drinking at home.

    Yuan Qifeng came home reeking of alcohol once, and was almost kicked out of the house by Yuan Jilang.

    As the only flesh and blood of his parents, Yuan Bozhu did not touch alcohol since he was a child.The only impression of wine is probably Jiuniang Yuanzi.

    Qin Rui waved his hands heroically: "I ordered this for myself, tell the store manager what you want to drink."

    The shop manager who was bartending winked at Yuan Bozhu.

    Yuan Bozhu just ordered a glass of ice water.

    From the corner of the eye, saw Qin Rui raise his head and drank three cups in a row.

    Astonishing.

    Yuan Bozhu thought that what happened in Stone Star Company had brought him too much shock.

    But think about it and shouldn't.

    Qin Rui called the police just now, and was quite calm when facing the police.

    He told the police what Yuan Bozhu taught him, saying that some young people were trapped in the large conference room upstairs.

    When the police asked him specifically, he wasn't nervous at all, and described in detail the company's hauntings, describing him and Yuan Bozhu as innocent passers-by who accidentally ran into evil, and said that the company was not clean.

    Of course the police didn't believe in ghosts, so they went to adjust the monitoring, but the monitoring was broken.

    Qin Rui said from the side again: "Look, look, it's haunted. I need a monk to exorcise the evil spirits."

    In the end, Qin Rui successfully let the police let him go by relying on his ability to open his eyes and tell lies.

    "well!"

    Qin Rui drank the fifth cup, hiccupped, and sighed deeply.

    Yuan Bozhu looked at him.

    Originally thought that Qin Rui would ask him about the "super power", but he didn't.

    Qin Rui was blowing his nose with a tissue in sorrow, mumbling: "I didn't pass the interview, damn it, I was chosen because of money again. I'm so mad."

    "..."

    Yuan Bozhu realized that the fact that he had superpowers might not have as much impact on Qin Rui as the failure of the interview.

    Qin Rui turned eighteen not long ago, but since he can freely go in and out of the tavern, he basically comes to drink every week.

    Drinking one cup after another, until the top is drunk, he will say to himself for a while that he has nothing but money, and for a while he will smugly say that it is great if he has money.

    Suddenly, he slapped the table, and said to Yuan Bozhu as if suddenly enlightened: "No wonder, no wonder!"

    "What?" Yuan Bozhu slapped his outstretched paw away.

    Qin Rui glanced at the tavern manager mysteriously, and waited for the other party to go elsewhere, then sneaked up to Yuan Bozhu's ear and said, "No wonder you don't make friends at school."

    Yuan Bozhu thought that Qin Rui wouldn't ask him questions even when he was drunk.

    I didn't expect his focus to be here.

    However, even if Qin Rui didn't ask, he would definitely think about it in his heart.

    He should also understand now that Yuan Bozhu usually doesn't want to deal with people because he doesn't want people to know his secret——

    "You are so awesome, you must look down on those little bastards, and disdain them to make friends!"

    Qin Rui confidently expressed his conclusion.

    Yuan Bozhu opened his mouth, but finally said nothing.

    This was the first time that Yuan Bozhu was seen using spells in front of outsiders.

    The reason why he came here with Qin Rui was to prevent Qin Rui from thinking about it, feeling scared, and ran to the police to explain the whole story again.

    Yuan Bozhu has no such experience, but he is not unprepared——

    According to the normal logic, Qin Rui should force him to question him now.

    Yuan Bozhu tried to find an excuse, but if he didn't convince Qin Rui, he would click on Qin Rui's dumb acupoint and take Qin Rui to a place where no one was around.

    Discuss, or threaten, or simply smoke Qin Rui's soul, so that he will directly lose his memory ability.

    This will turn Qin Rui into a useless person, but if Qin Rui dares to expose Yuan Bozhu's secret to others, Yuan Bozhu can only do this.

    As a result, after mentally preparing for a long time, Qin Rui didn't ask anything.

    Yuan Bozhu looked coldly, and took the initiative to ask: "Do you have any questions to ask?"

    Qin Rui looked at him drunkenly, then suddenly said, "Yes, yes, yes!"

    Yuan Bozhu raised his eyebrows and looked back at him.

    Waiting for Qin Rui's question.

    Suddenly, Qin Rui turned around seriously, took Yuan Bozhu's hand—although it was opened immediately—and said:

    "Brother Yuan, we must be life-and-death friends now, right? As your good brother, I will keep it from you. Then you... When you go to school, don't tell mePeople say I haven’t passed the interview, is it okay?”

    Yuan Bozhu blinked, really confused by Qin Rui's question.

    A moment later, under Qin Rui's pleading gaze, Yuan Bozhu didn't know whether he was relieved or completely helpless, sighed, and said, "Okay."

    10:14

    "Mu Youhui": Yuan classmate, I'm so hungry

    "Mu Youhui": Oops, I seem to have no money to eat QAQ

    12:49

    "Wood Comes Back": [Picture Information]

    "Mu Youhui": Hey, fortunately there is some stock in the refrigerator.Long live chocolate![Throwing tiles.jpg]

    13:32

    "Mu Youhui": The teacher called me and said that I was absent from the exam... Yuan classmate, do you want to hear some news?

    14:40

    "Mu Huihui": A Zhu, let me go find you.

    Yuan Bozhu sent Qin Rui, who was drunk like mud, back to his luxurious villa.

    Qin Rui hugged his thigh drunkenly for the ninth time and swore: "Brother Yuan, from now on you will be my brother, and my money will be your money! Keep your money for yourself!"

    Pulled his clothes for the fifth time and shouted: "Brother Yuan, let's go together and fight against the world! You provide superpowers, I pay, we are invincible!"

    Kneeling on the ground for the third time and crying bitterly: "... woo woo woo, why do I only have money! Can I have something else to use woo woo woo..."

    In the end, Yuan Bozhu had no choice but to light his sleeping hole, throw him to several nannies at home, and left by himself.

    It was already afternoon when got home.

    This day turned out to be more than half of it.

    Yuan Bozhu still wanted to go back to rest, but a curse that never comes singly seemed to be fulfilled on him again.

    He saw Lin Shuangxuan sitting in the flower bed downstairs in the community.

    Fortunately, he backed away in time.

    Lin Shuangxiu couldn't see him.

    But what is Lin Shuangxuan doing here?

    Yuan Bozhu's first reaction was to take out the phone, but he paused, then put the phone back.

    Since last night, he hasn't read news from Lin Shuangxuan again.

    Uncomfortably dry lips.

    Yuan Bozhu turned around and walked to a nearby supermarket to buy a bottle of water.

    Then sit on a chair outside and let go.

    If you can't see it, you don't know it.

    I saw it, but avoided it in time, or didn't know it.

    Yes, this is in line with Yuan Bozhu's consistent principles.

    He avoided Lin Shuanghuan like he avoided everyone else.Nothing special.

    Yuan Bozhu was propping his forehead and looking at the skyline when the phone rang.

    His always straight and indifferent lips were suddenly tightened.

    Then he realized that Lin Shuangxuan didn't have his phone number.

    It was only after she picked it up that she realized it was Yuan Wanjiao, her voice was a little tired, as if she had just woken up.

    "Brother, are you home?"

    Yuan Bozhu said, "Soon."

    "Yeah, that's good." She said, suddenly paused, seemed to cough while covering the receiver, and then said, "Don't wander around outside, listen to my sister."

    Yuan Bozhu's eyes fell on a certain direction, he seemed to be in a daze, but he was actually concentrating his ears to distinguish Yuan Wanjiao's voice.

    sea ​​breeze.

    Rising tide.

    Occasional gulls fly by.

    Yuan Wanjiao should have just come out of Spider Realm.

    "Let's cook hot pot tonight, while Yuan Qifeng is away, let's have something good."

    Yuan Bozhu was silent for a moment, and said, "Okay."

    15:03

    "Mu Youhui": Yuan classmate, I'm downstairs at your house [Jump.jpg]

    "Mu Youhui": I'll wait for you until 3:30, if you don't reply, I'll knock on the door, okay?

    15:31

    "Mu Youhui": Then wait until four o'clock![Circle Circle.jpg]

    16:01

    "Mu Youhui": Well, I lied to you.I didn't go to your house, hehe~

    16:03

    "Mu Youhui": In fact, I found a part-time job. The boss said that I would go to the interview after six o'clock. It was the first time I was looking for a job by myself. I was a little nervous. I wanted to ask my former classmate if he could accompany me~

    17:21

    "Mu Youhui": I'm going for an interview!wish me success

    After hanging up Yuan Wanjiao's phone, Yuan Bozhu accidentally saw the large list of unread messages.

    Originally, I wanted to continue to follow the principle of turning a blind eye, but suddenly saw the last message.

    interview?

    What is the interview?Where to go for an interview?

    His eyes sank suddenly, and he stood up from the chair.

    Walk quickly out of the intersection.

    There was no sign of Lin Shuangxuan downstairs in the community.

    At that moment, many bad thoughts came to me.

    Lin Shuangxuan is a rare species in the awakening period, with a bloodline that even Spider Realm covets.

    The energy fields of rare species cannot be detected by ordinary people, but liches have special spiritual power, and they may hit the right one.

    What would they do if they found Lin Shuangxuan's blood?

    Lin Shuangxuan's strength is still unstable, does he have the strength to resist?

    Yuan Bozhu's face was darker than ever before.

    In fact, he couldn't answer a question: why did he refuse to read Lin Shuangxuan's messages from last night to just now?

    But there is obviously no need for an answer now.

    17:35

    "Yuan Bozhu": Where is it.

    Lin Shuangxuan stood upright at the door of the coffee shop.

    The backpack he carried today.

    There was only one extra-curricular book in it to pass the time, but just now I saw a new branch of a chain bookstore that I usually go to next to it, thinking that there seems to be a balance in the book card, I couldn't hold back, and ran in to brush againa few books.

    Now the schoolbag became dead heavy.

    He was struggling to recite, but he refused to go in and sit and wait.

    Lin Shuangxuan restlessly picked at the strap of her schoolbag with both hands, and stretched her neck to look at the intersection.

    He thought Yuan Bozhu came here by bus or on foot—because this cafe is in the university town 1.5 kilometers away from Yuan Bozhu's home.

    Last time, walked the two kilometers home from Yuan Bozhulian, so don't think should be too anxious for this distance.

    As a result, a taxi stopped in front of Lin Shuangxuan.

    He saw Yuan Bozhu getting out of the car, still with that expressionless face, but Lin Shuanghuan always seemed to be able to read something else.

    Such as anxiety, exhaustion of patience.

    Lin Shuangxuan thought, when it was over, Yuan Bozhu must have found it annoying that he sent so many messages, and now he was going to reprimand him face to face.

    "Are you interviewing a barista?"

    Yuan Bozhu walked up to him, looked at him, and then at the apparently newly opened cafe next to him.

    There was a new look on his face.

    question.

    Lin Shuangxiu was startled, feeling guilty, rubbed the tip of his nose, and said in a low voice, "The boss said it's okay to have no experience. He trained himself. I think the daily salary is quite high...Actually, I don't know, IFirst time looking for a part-time job."

    It's strange that Lin Shuangxuan's calmness and ease in front of others is always a bit powerless in Yuan Bozhu.

    "Let's go." Yuan Bozhu didn't make things difficult for him.

    Lin Shuanghuan turned around nervously, and was about to open the door when she suddenly felt a light on her back.

    Yuan Bozhu picked up his schoolbag.

    He raised his hand subconsciously, and let Yuan Bozhu take away the schoolbag.

    After being stunned for a while, Yuan Bozhu had pushed open the door, saw him in a daze, and called out, "Aren't you leaving?"

    "Let's go."

    Lin Shuangxuan inexplicably felt his mouth was dry and wanted to lick it.

    He reacted to one more thing.

    Yuan Bozhu wore new clothes.

    The clothes he chose for him.

    A gray tie-dye denim jacket from the Fall collection.

    It was originally the most concise style in this series, but it was worn by Yuan Bozhu with a crisp and casual style that looks better than the model.

    Lin Shuangxuan followed and watched for a long time.

    Like a tuft of feathers gently scratching his heart.

    There is a soft and itchy feeling that spreads quietly.

    He licked his lips, and followed Yuan Bozhu in briskly.

    "Brother Zhu!"

    When Pei Jinwang saw Yuan Bozhu, his eyes lit up, he almost turned over from the bar, and rushed over excitedly to hug Yuan Bozhu.

    Yuan Bozhu dodged coldly.

    Yuan Bozhu frowned and asked, "Your shop?"

    Although Pei Jinwang said last time that he wanted to open a store, he didn't expect it to be so fast, and it was such a coincidence.

    He looked around the store, because there was no open sign yet, the headlights were not turned on, and there were no customers, so it looked a bit deserted.

    However, the decoration has been completed, and the aesthetics of Pei Jinwang is not bad.With a warm and simple style, the overall look is a little more "expensive" than the cafe they worked in before.

    Pei Jinwang was surprised and said: "What? Didn't you see that I posted on Moments, and then came to celebrate the opening of my new store?!"

    Yuan Bozhu said: "No."

    Pei Jinwang's expression went through several decays, and finally asked him: "Then you come here for coffee?"

    Lin Shuangxiu quietly poked his head out from behind Yuan Bozhu and said, "Hi, I'm here for the interview."

    Pei Jinwang looked at Yuan Bozhu, then at Lin Shuanghuan, and smiled: "Brother Xiaozhu, if you want to recommend someone to me, tell me earlier, I have arranged another interview today, what a coincidence—"

    "Boss." Lin Shuangxuan stood up with a smile, took out his mobile phone, pointed to the chat box on the screen, and said, "I am the one who made an appointment with you for an interview."

    "Huh?!" Pei Jinwang was surprised at first, then overjoyed, "Isn't this a coincidence? You're a friend of Brother Xiaozhu, so I'll just go through the back door, so what's the interview? Come, sign the contract!"

    As he said that, he was going to pull Lin Shuangxiu's hands with an extremely affectionate look.

    Yuan Bozhu stretched out his hand to stop Lin Shuangxuan away.

    "Interview first." Yuan Bozhu glanced at Lin Shuangxuan, then said to Pei Jinwang, "He doesn't know how to make coffee."

    "I know this situation, it's okay, it's okay." Pei Jinwang said very generously, "I'll teach him!"

    "..." Yuan Bozhu suspected that he had heard wrong.

    Pei Jinwang, a person who can't even do the simplest love latte art so far, said that he would teach Lin Shuangxuan how to make coffee.

    "I have something to try."

    Lin Shuangxuan thought that Yuan Bozhu didn't speak because he suspected that he couldn't learn.

    So he took the initiative to ask for a job, and shouted with a guilty conscience, "How about it, A Zhu?"

    five minutes later.

    Lin Shuangxuan, who was looking for a part-time job for the first time and made coffee for the first time, was taken to the bar by Pei Jinwang, who was the boss and taught others how to make coffee for the first time.

    Both of them looked eager to try, rolled up their sleeves, one dared to teach, the other dared to learn.

    Yuan Bozhu put the bulky schoolbag on the counter, leaned aside, and stared at the two of them expressionlessly.

    "Look at this coffee machine worth more than 200,000 yuan. I heard it's better than the ones in other shops."

    Pei Jinwang began to operate Lin Shuangxuan, saying, "Let's grind the coffee first, and take this powder bowl... Oh yes, you know the classification of coffee, right? You know what a latte is, what a mocha is, and what is an espresso, right?"?”

    Lin Shuangxuan nodded, his eyes were full of seeking knowledge, eager to learn, and dedicated.

    Pei Jinwang had never been looked at with such a sincere eye, and suddenly he felt like a teacher.

    "Okay, come on, let me teach you how to grind and extract. First of all, the thickness of the ground coffee beans will affect the extraction of coffee."

    This sentence sounds like that.

    Yuan Bozhu thought that Pei Jinwang had secretly learned how to make coffee.

    A few minutes later, however, he was standing in front of the coffee machine and fidgeting.

    "Oh, I'm going, this thing is so hot! Why is this broken coffee machine different from the one I used before! Xiao Lin, please help me quickly—oh, don't, don't, don't touch that handle!"

    Before Lin Shuangxuan touched him, he was taken aback by Pei Jinwang. He was at a loss and didn't know whether to help or not.

    He saw that the coffee cup seemed to be full, so he subconsciously wanted to take it.

    Yuan Bozhu held down his hand before he touched it.

    "hot."

    Yuan Bozhu took the insulated gloves from the side and handed them to him, "Wear them."

    Lin Shuangxuan nodded and put on the gloves obediently.

    Pei Jinwang studied there for a long time, and said to himself: "Is there something wrong with this machine? Why can't the coffee come out?"

    Yuan Bozhu looked at him wordlessly.

    "The powder is too fine to extract."

    Pei Jinwang didn't give up: "But doesn't espresso have to be ground finely?"

    "Have a good grasp, you have already passed this."

    Afterwards, he drove Pei Jinwang out of the operating room.

    "Then what should I do? Now it's too hard to find a barista, and I'm in a hurry to open again, alas. I suddenly feel that life is hard!"

    Pei Jinwang started looking through his recruitment information with his mobile phone, and said, "Look, there are a few baristas here, and they will give me some food and lodging as soon as they come here.Room and board?"

    The boss was pacing back and forth in a hurry. Although Lin Shuanghuan had done nothing wrong, she always felt that she was of no help.

    He was a little frustrated.

    Of course, frustration may also be due to realizing that I can't apply for this part-time job, and I don't know where to solve tomorrow's lunch.

    At this time, he suddenly heard Yuan Bozhu beside him asking softly: "Want to learn?"

    Lin Shuangxuan raised his head and looked at Yuan Bozhu.It seemed that he didn't understand the meaning of this sentence at that moment.

    But quickly reacted.

    Nodding quickly.

    Yuan Bozhu walked up to him and said, "I'll teach you."

    The voice was as low and deep as usual, and it could even be said to be cold.

    But Lin Shuangxuan always felt that the temperature suddenly rose.

    It was so hot that he was about to melt.

    The author has something to say:

    Re: He wants to teach me how to make coffee, round he doesn't hate me, round he loves me so much, round we have a wedding tomorrow.

    Yuan: Huh?
