In a blink of an eye, it's the final exam.
After taking the first place in the English unit test, Jiang Li took the first place in physics again. A student who was usually in the middle and lower reaches suddenly took the first place twice in a row, making him a proctor in the final exam. The object of the teacher's focus.
After the first year of high school and the summer vacation, Jiang Li resigned from his part-time job in the wood factory and found a job as a barista in a coffee shop on the commercial street.
When filming before, there was a character who was a barista. In order not to need a substitute, Jiang Li specially learned it. Whether it was making a single product or a fancy style, it was easy for him. He just simply missed two hands during the interview. , the supervisor of the coffee shop admitted him, and he didn't care that he didn't have a research certificate. Besides, he was good-looking, so standing at the bar was just an appearance.
Jiang Li spent his previous two lives in the entertainment industry. He is very good at observing words and expressions and communicating with people. After only a few days at work, he got to know everyone in the coffee shop well. Although there are many customers in the summer vacation, he is a bit tired after being busy. , but the salary is good, much better than the odd job in the stuffy and hot wood factory before.
On this day, Jiang Li mixed a cup of latte coffee and put it on a tray for his colleagues in the store to deliver to the customers. The door sensor next to him sounded "Welcome". He turned his head and saw a familiar person.
Logically speaking, it should be someone who is both familiar and unfamiliar——Xu Haowen.
When Xu Haowen walked in, he saw Jiang Li who was wearing a white uniform at the bar, paused slightly, and saw Jiang Li smiling at him and saying welcome.
Jiang Li's attitude was very kind and polite, completely in line with his current status as a staff member. Xu Haowen hesitated between walking over to say hello and finding a seat to sit down.
Although he doesn't despise Jiang Li's liking for men like other people, and thinks that everyone has their own choice, but when he thinks that the person he likes is himself, he is somewhat embarrassed.
It's just that seeing Jiang Li's generous attitude at this moment, compared with him, if he avoids him, he will look petty.
After figuring it out, Xu Haowen walked to the bar frankly and said, "Do you work here?"
"Yes." Jiang Li handed him the menu folder, "What to drink?"
"Mocha, iced." Xu Haowen said, "Do you cook it?"
Jiang Li nodded: "Do you want anything else?"
"Not for now, thank you."
Jiang Li made an order for him, then took the jar containing the Mocha coffee beans from the shelf, skillfully scooped out a cup of beans with a spoon and put them into the grinder, then pressed the switch to start boiling water, ready to make coffee .
"Find a seat yourself first." Seeing that he was still standing in front of the bar, Jiang Li reminded him that there were not many customers in the morning, so only Jiang Li and another colleague went to work. While greeting customers to order, they couldn't greet Xu Haowen.
"En." Xu Haowen nodded, went to find a seat by the window and sat down, then took out a few books and blank notebooks from his backpack, and continued to solve the unfinished problems last night.
Jiang Li made coffee and sent it to Xu Haowen, and put the coffee on the table: "Your coffee."
"Thank you." Xu Haowen stopped writing, smelling the aroma of coffee in his nose.
Jiang Li's eyes fell on the book in his hand, and found that it was mathematics in the second semester of the second year of high school, and then looked at the calculus book, and found that the steps of his problem-solving were stuck in a certain position.
Xu Haowen saw his gaze on his notebook, and smiled: "I'm a bit stuck in my thinking."
After talking, thinking of Jiang Li's academic performance has changed a lot, he asked tentatively: "Do you want to try?"
Jiang Li didn't respond, just stared at the book for a while, then stretched out his hand: "Pen."
Xu Haowen handed him the pen.
Jiang Li bent down, pressed the notebook with one hand, and quickly calculated with the pen in the other.
Because of bending over, Xu Haowen's gaze was right on Jiang Li's side face, and what he saw was his delicate and round ears and the graceful curvature of his jaw.
Accidentally, he was dazzled by the whiteness of his side face.
…
Feng Yu made an appointment with Chi Fang to come to Digital Studios to help him choose a laptop computer today, because he also asked someone to play a copy of the game at noon, so the two went out early in the morning.
The digital studio is on the second floor of the central building in the commercial street, and the coffee shop where Jiang Li works is on the first floor. When the two of them passed by the floor-to-ceiling windows of the coffee shop, Feng Yu glanced inside inadvertently, and happened to see Jiang Li The picture of bending over to help Xu Haowen solve a problem.
At the same table, from his point of view, the two were very close, so he couldn't help pulling Chi Fang, pointing at them and saying, "Brother Chi, who do you think those two are?"
Chi Fang followed his hand and saw Jiang Li and Xu Haowen.
"Jiang Li and Xu Haowen? Why are the two of them together?" Feng Yu saw the books on the table through the window and guessed, "Could it be that Jiang Li succeeded? Two people come to the cafe to study together?"
Chi Fang: "...are you blind?"
"what?"
"Jiang Li is wearing the overalls of the coffee shop."
"Huh, it really is." Feng Yu took a closer look and found that Jiang Li was wearing a cafe work shirt, with a black bow tie on the collar, and a dark brown apron around his waist.
Feng Yu: "Not to mention, Jiang Li looks pretty good in a white shirt."
Chi Fang's eyes also fell on Jiang Li, and before he had time to see his so-called good looks, he heard him say again: "So, Xu Haowen is here to accompany Jiang Li to work? Are high school students so romantic?"
Chi Fang: "..." Your brain is pretending to be shit.
Chi Fang was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, so he took the lead into the elevator next to him, and Feng Yu hurriedly followed.
In the coffee shop, both Jiang and Xu didn't know that they were being judged by Feng Yu outside.
Xu Haowen was surprised when he saw that it took less than two minutes for Jiang Li to solve the problem that had puzzled him for a long time.
Jiang Li returned the pen to him, and pointed to one of the steps he had just calculated: "You made a mistake here, it should be 5."
Xu Haowen watched him do the calculations just now, and he has already understood. The confusion in his heart suddenly cleared up, and his thinking became much clearer. He nodded to him: "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Jiang Li returned to the bar with the tray.
Xu Haowen turned his head to look, and seeing him back to the bar, he started to work again. After cleaning the jug he had just used, he took a clean cotton cloth to help his colleagues wipe the cleaned glasses.
Although Jiang Li is not tall, his height still has an advantage among girls, half a head taller than his female colleagues.
Xu Haowen saw him tilting his head to listen to his female colleague caringly, with a gentle smile on the corner of his lips, when the other party put the goblet on tiptoe, he reached out to take it and hung it on the cup holder.
Xu Haowen didn't notice it himself. He observed for a while unconsciously. During this time, two customers came in one after another. Jiang Li ordered for them, made coffee, and didn't look in his direction at all. This made him can't help but Doubt, does this person in front of me really like him? Or is it just a joke made by others.
Realizing what he was thinking, Xu Haowen shook his head and looked away.
On the other side, after Chi Fang and Feng Yu had chosen their computers, they went to the Internet cafe next to the computer store to play games. It was almost nine o'clock in the evening when the two came out of the Internet cafe.
"I'm so hungry, Brother Chi, what shall we eat?"
When going downstairs, Feng Yu touched his stomach and asked Chi Fang, he didn’t feel hungry when he was playing games just now, but he found his stomach growling when he got out of the Internet cafe. After leaving the game, it was like returning to the mortal world.
"Whatever, you decide." Chi Fang said without raising his head while playing a stand-alone game on his mobile phone.
"let me see."
Just as Feng Yu was thinking, he received a new WeChat message on his mobile phone. He opened it and found that it was from Nanyin. He raised his head and asked Chi Fang: "Brother Chi, Sister Nan asked us if we want to go to the movies? She also said that she didn't reply to the message I sent you. Ask me if I'm with you."
"No, I'm not here." Chi Fang refused straight away. There was indeed a message popping up just now, but he was too lazy to return while playing games.
"Then let's find a place to eat... Hey, why is Jiang Li still here?"
The two of them had already gone down to the first floor when they were talking, and there were customers leaving the coffee shop. Feng Yu glanced through the open door and saw Jiang Li still standing at the bar: "I saw him here in the morning. Don't you get off work after nine o'clock?"
Hearing the word "Jiang Li", Chi Fang's fingers paused for a moment, and the greedy snake on the screen that was supposed to turn a corner accidentally bumped into someone else's house, then the screen went black, and the game ended.
"Why don't we just eat here, their pizza and pasta are very delicious!" Feng Yu suggested, "I heard that some cafes calculate a commission based on the sales of the day, let's have an extra meal Maybe I can give Jiang Li a little more commission."
Chi Fang: "..."
Before Chi Fang could express his opinion, Feng Yu dragged him into the coffee shop. As soon as the two entered, the sensor at the door rang.
The bar was close to the door, Jiang Li heard the voice and looked back, and saw the two of them.
Seeing Chi Fang coming in, Jiang Li was a little surprised. He originally planned to use this summer vacation to earn money for the tuition and living expenses of the sophomore year of high school.
But even though he was not in a hurry to attack Chi Fang, Jiang Li also learned about Chi Fang a little bit, and learned that he transferred from City B in the middle of the first semester of senior high school.
It is said that Chi Fang was blocked in the school's small orchard by a few unscrupulous students of the same level on the second day after his transfer. The other party said that he would teach the new transfer students how to behave.
In a one-on-four situation, Chi Fang was unscathed, but several people on the other side were held down by him on the ground, crying and begging for mercy.
Chi Fang usually has very loose discipline in school. He often arrives late and leaves early in class, and his academic performance is also very average. Except for mathematics and physics, which are ranked middle in the class, he has almost failed in other subjects, which is something that most teachers will not like. that kind of students.
But I heard that his family is very powerful in City B, and there are people in his family who are leaders of the Provincial Department of Education. He was studying in No. 1 Middle School in City B before, and he was transferred to the small county town of Jiangcheng to take refuge after committing a crime, so he was late. The behavior of leaving early, the school teachers and leaders turned a blind eye.
However, these news were all hearsay, not seeing is believing, so Jiang Li didn't take it all to heart, not to mention that Chi Fang had saved himself once.
As soon as Feng Yu came to the bar, he greeted Jiang Li familiarly: "You are Jiang Li from Class 5, right? I'm from the class next to yours. My name is Feng Yu."
"Hello, I'm Jiang Li." Knowing that he is Chi Fang's good brother, Jiang Li nodded politely to him, and then smiled at Chi Fang who was standing beside him, with surprise in his eyes after the encounter: "Student Chi Fang, good evening."
Chi Fang: "..."
Wait, we are all classmates, what do you mean by smiling at me alone
