When the movie ended, the lights in the theater lit up, and the audience left one after another, bustling toward the exit.
Yang Cheng looked back and found that Lin Ruoxi had already finished the entire bucket of popcorn. He couldn't help but laugh, "Your appetite is bigger than I thought."
Lin Ruoxi knew what he meant. She unknowingly finished the popcorn and explained with a pink face, "I just saw that you didn't eat, so I was worried that it would be a waste."
"Who said I didn't eat? I saved it for you. I haven't had dinner yet." Yang Cheng said.
"Then are we going to eat dinner?" Lin Ruoxi asked. She still wanted to continue.
"Of course, what do you want to eat?"
Lin Ruoxi blinked and whispered, "How about cake?"
Yang Cheng groaned in his heart. It was shocking enough that his wife liked to eat glutinous rice balls, but she also liked to eat cake like a little girl?!
Lin Ruoxi saw that Yang Cheng didn't have any intention of agreeing. She felt that her proposal would not be agreed to, so she said with some disappointment, "I was just casually mentioning it. If you want to eat or something else, that's fine too."
"Let's eat cake. I remember there's a Starbucks across from the theater. Although it's just an ordinary chain coffee shop, we can make do with it. I don't think you've eaten there before."
Lin Ruoxi's eyes lit up. She suppressed the joy in her heart and casually nodded.
As one of the most common coffee chain brands in the world, Starbucks was indeed the choice of ordinary people. However, in Hua Xia, many people seemed to regard it as a high-end consumer, which was a strange phenomenon.
Lin Ruoxi, who had done a lot of research on this famous chain brand, had known about it since she was young. However, due to her identity, she had never been there. Therefore, when Yang Cheng suggested going to Starbucks, she was very willing to nod.
The two walked out of the theater and in the night wind, they walked towards the Starbucks across the street.
Lin Ruoxi was wearing a fashionable business suit from work during the day. Her hair was let down and fluttered in the wind. Her stunning beauty and the cold temperament she had accumulated since she was young attracted a lot of attention the moment she appeared.
Lin Ruoxi was used to this kind of attention since she was young, but Yang Cheng, who was beside her, felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. After all, his woman was being stared at by others like a beast protecting its food. It was always sad.
However, there was no other way. Yang Cheng felt that if he, Mo Qianni, and Liu Mingyu went out on the streets, some people would like to look at Mo Qianni, and some would like to look at Liu Mingyu. They each had their own merits, and they were all eye-catching beauties that suited most people's tastes.
However, if Lin Ruoxi were to stand among them, everyone would only pay attention to Lin Ruoxi. This didn't mean that Mo Qianni and the others weren't beautiful, but some people were born with an outstanding aura.
The neon lights on the roadside and the flashing headlights on the road lit up the entire downtown area of Zhonghai.
The streets were filled with the hustle and bustle of people. To Lin Ruoxi, this was different from the past, because she wasn't alone in this small corner. There was someone accompanying her.
Suddenly, when crossing the road, Lin Ruoxi felt a hot hand holding her left hand.
Rough, thick, hot, and hard, it made Lin Ruoxi's heart beat faster.
She turned her head to look at Yang Cheng and saw Yang Cheng winking at her.
"Be careful when crossing the road."
"This is a pedestrian crossing." Lin Ruoxi wasn't used to it, but she didn't struggle.
"You have to hold hands on a date." Yang Cheng said with a smile.
Lin Ruoxi pursed her lips, looked down at the road, and didn't say anything.
After holding hands and walking into Starbucks, Lin Ruoxi looked around curiously. After all, she had never been here before. She went to the counter and ordered a strawberry cake and hot mocha, while Yang Cheng ordered an American-style iced coffee and two chocolate cakes.
Since there weren't many people at this time, it was quickly served. The two took the coffee and cake to a table near the window and sat down. They looked at the night view of the street outside the window while eating slowly.
The cafe was playing a melodious flute canon, and the melody was light and relaxing.
Lin Ruoxi ate the strawberry cake very slowly. After taking small bites, she looked around the layout of the cafe and asked Yang Cheng, "Do you know how Starbucks was born?"
Yang Cheng was eating the cake with a spoon. "I don't know. What's so special about it?"
"I read the biography of Mr. Howard Schultz, the founder of Starbucks, which told a story before he founded Starbucks," Lin Ruoxi said faintly, "When Mr. Schultz was young, his father lost his job, and his family was very poor. To make his father happy, he stole a can of coffee beans from a shop for his father at Christmas. His father was very happy at the time, but in the end, because the shop owner came to ask for money, Mr. Schultz was beaten up. After that, the relationship between him and his father became very stiff … "
Yang Cheng put down his spoon and saw Lin Ruoxi's thoughtful look. He knew that she might be thinking about her family and her crazy father, so he couldn't help but listen carefully.
"Mr. Schultz swore at that time that he would have the money to buy the best coffee to prove it to his father. So, he kept studying hard, and in the most difficult time, he used his football skills to get a scholarship. He went to university, and all the way to a world-famous company, where he got a senior position with a monthly salary of more than 70,000 US dollars.
After he became successful, he bought the best Brazilian coffee beans for his father, and told his father that it was to prove to him that he was beaten up for that can of coffee beans many years ago. His father asked, 'You did so much for such a boring thing.' Mr. Schultz was very angry. After that, he became estranged from his father, and even told others that his father was dead …
Until his father died, Mr. Schultz refused to go home to see him, saying that he had to discuss business. Until one day, when he was sorting out his father's belongings, he found the can of coffee that was stolen from his father many years ago. He realized that his father had kept that can of coffee, and had always treasured that memory.
At that time, he regretted it very much, because he also saw a crumpled letter in the can. On it was written that Schultz's father's biggest dream was to have a warm cafe, and grind coffee beans for his wife and children. Unfortunately, his incompetence prevented him from realizing this dream. Other than beating his children, he really couldn't think of a way to let his children know that he was their father …
So, Mr. Schultz and his wife founded Starbucks together, and it has been developed to this day. "
"Thinking of your father?" Yang Cheng asked.
Lin Ruoxi nodded. "I used to hope that my father would be like Mr. Schultz's father. Although he didn't treat me well, he loved me deeply in his heart. But … in the end, hope and reality are not the same. "
Yang Cheng knew that this was nothing more than a wake-up call. He said softly, "So, there's such a story. It seems that you have read all the books you bought."
Lin Ruoxi rolled her eyes at him. "Do you think I'm just a piece of paper to paste on the wall?"
"Hehe." Yang Cheng smiled. "Don't worry. I will be a capable father in the future. I can still grind coffee beans for my wife and children."
Lin Ruoxi blushed. Although she hoped that Yang Cheng would work hard, she didn't want to admit it. "Who wants you to grind coffee beans? When did I promise to give birth to your children?"
Yang Chen asked mischievously, "Did I say you're the wife and the child are yours? Maybe after a while, you don't want me anymore, and I will change my wife? You are thinking too much. "
"You … Stop talking nonsense! Be careful, or I will pour it on you! " Lin Ruoxi glared at Yang Cheng angrily. She picked up the hot mocha on the table, stood up, and pretended to pour it on Yang Cheng!
Although Yang Cheng knew that she was just threatening him, he still hugged his chest and shrank back. "Even if you are angry, don't pour it on my clothes! It's not a matter of clothes! "
"Rogue … Rogue …" Lin Ruoxi gritted her teeth. She took back the coffee cup and drank a mouthful of hot coffee.
There was a layer of milky cream on the surface of the hot mocha coffee. When Lin Ruoxi drank it casually, the cream immediately stained her thin and well-defined upper lip.
Yang Cheng saw the milky line and couldn't help but sigh. "Look, look … Why do you women like to do this? Only when you are with a woman will you be clean. When you are with your husband, you like to smear cream on your lips? Are you still pretending that you don't know anything? "
Lin Ruoxi realized that there was something on her lips. She felt embarrassed to lick it, so she wanted to wipe it off. However, there was no napkin on the table, so she wanted to take it from her bag.
"Don't look around. It's too troublesome. I will help you solve it." Yang Cheng said as he leaned over and moved closer to Lin Ruoxi's flawless face.
As the distance between their faces was getting closer, Lin Ruoxi gradually realized what Yang Cheng wanted to do. Her watery eyes widened, and for a moment, her heart was in a mess. It was as if the world was a blank!
Finally, Yang Cheng's lips kissed Lin Ruoxi's lips that were covered with cream. It was cool, soft, and had a milky fragrance.
Lin Ruoxi was stunned, as if a spring thunder had exploded.
Even after Yang Chen returned to his seat, Lin Ruoxi was still sitting there in a daze, not knowing what to do.
Yang Cheng felt that this woman was very cute. "Why? I think the paper towels will consume the wood pulp and damage the environment. Do you want me to use clothes? You bought them for me, and you can't bear to wipe them. "
Lin Ruoxi came to her senses. She actually let him kiss her. Although he was her husband in name, and she was not taken advantage of, it was still a kiss!
When she lost her virginity to him, it was also in a daze. The two of them did not feel anything at all. But now, they could really feel each other's breath and temperature …
Thinking of this, Lin Ruoxi's dimples were so charming that water could almost be squeezed out. "Don't do this in the future. Also, I asked someone to buy the clothes. I can't be bothered to buy them for you."
"Such a beautiful scene is ruined by your unromantic words. Can't you just pretend that you bought them?" Yang Cheng lectured with a helpless smile.
"So noisy! Hurry up and eat! "
"This is a cake …"
"Then hurry up and eat the cake!"
Lin Ruoxi lowered her head, and the blush on her face could not fade. She began to speed up eating the cake as if she had a grudge against it. But with every bite, why did it feel like the cake had been added with honey? It was extraordinarily sweet?
