Chapter 399. 399. Ye Nai's Early Visit
Ye Nai arrived at the entrance of Millk Dipper store early in the morning.

"Huh? Are there so many guests so early?"

Ye Nai was surprised to find that many customers had already walked into the store talking and laughing.

Ye Nai checked the time again, and it was indeed only seven o'clock in the morning.

It seems that Ryotaro's shop is indeed extremely popular.

Ye Nai straightened her clothes and immediately stepped into the store.

"Welcome, what do you need?"

Kadoya Saya, who had just served a few coffees to a table of guests, noticed Ye Nai's arrival and showed a sweet smile. It seemed that she had already adapted to the job of a waiter.

"Ah, I'm sorry to bother you so early. My name is Yena. Excuse me...is Ryotaro here?"

Ye Nai was still worried, and decided to see if the man really brought Ryotaro home.

"Are you Xiaoliang's friend? He hasn't woken up yet, it looks like he was exhausted last night."

It's not too busy now, so Kadoya Saya is free to chat with Ye Na.

"Is that so... Excuse me!"

Ye Nai breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute! I have to entertain Xiaoliang's friends. Come in and have a cup of coffee."

Kadoya Saya offered some words of caution, then walked over and took Ye Nai's arm with a smile.

"but……"

Ye Nai hesitated.

"After all, Xiaoliang doesn't seem to have many friends. It's rare to have one. We sisters can't neglect them."

Guang Xiahai also came over and smiled.

"Then I'll be disrespectful."

Ye Nai nodded in agreement, and then was pulled to the bar and sat down by the smiling faces of Guang Xiahai and Moya Saya.

Nogami Airi, who just came out of the kitchen, heard that Ye Nai was Ryotaro's friend, and she was also very happy, and made Ye Nai a cup of mixed coffee by herself.

"Come, please! This is our signature blended coffee."

Airi Nogami's smile is gentle and pleasant, making people feel very friendly.

"Thank you, I'm starting."

Ye Nai was a little cautious, nodded politely, and took a sip of the coffee with both hands.

"Drink well!"

After taking a sip of the mixed coffee brewed by Nogami Airi, Ye Nai felt astonished that coffee was such a wonderful thing.

It's a pity that she used to think that coffee was just like the kind Naomi makes...

"Our coffee is great, right? In fact, our Chinese cuisine is also great. Would you like some?"

Nogami Airi heard Ye Nai's praise and smiled slightly.

"It's completely different from what I've been drinking...as for cooking...if you can, have some."

Looking at Nogami Airi's hopeful eyes, Ye Nai always felt bad about it, which dampened Nogami Airi's mood.

It happened that at this time, Lu Xingzhou came out of the kitchen and placed a freshly made plate of fried dumplings on the bar.

"Xiaoye, fried dumplings for the guest at table six."

Lu Xingzhou waved to Menya Xiaoye.

"it is good!"

Kadaya Saya took the fried dumplings and walked to table No. [-].

"It's you?"

Ye Nai was slightly surprised. After all, the two met once on the space-time train, and Ye Nai was quite impressed by Lu Xingzhou.

"Yo~ Good morning!"

Lu Xingzhou smiled and greeted Ye Nai.

"Good morning."

Ye Nai forced a smile. On the space-time train, she felt that this man named Lu Xingzhou was not a simple character. He even knew many secrets that she didn't know. But now it seems that he is just an ordinary person?

This is Da Yin hiding in the city, right?
"You... know each other?"

Airi Nogami was a little surprised, and her index finger hesitated between Lu Xingzhou and Ye Nai.

"Yes, I met him before because of Xiaoliang's incident."

Lu Xingzhou openly stated the relationship between the two, dispelling the speculation that had just arisen deep in Nogami Airi's heart.

"It just so happens that this is one of the few friends Xiaoliang has. Please treat Yana-chan well and cook it yourself!"

Nogami Airi smiled tenderly.

"No problem, it's on me."

Lu Xingzhou nodded, turned around and went into the kitchen.

Lu Xingzhou is the manager of the store, and he is also an all-rounder. Sometimes the fine Chinese cuisine is cooked by Lu Xingzhou himself. Today is nothing more than a little early.

As soon as Lu Xingzhou walked into the kitchen, he met Gao Jingwang's playful eyes.

"Tsk, that girl is pretty good, isn't she? Is she your type?"

"What are you thinking? I just met once. It's not that I can't walk when I see a woman."

Lu Xingzhou smiled disdainfully, then walked over and hugged Gao Jingwang's waist.

"Hmph! Don't think we don't know. You ate up Sister Xiaoye a while ago, right? There are several sisters in the family and you say no?"

Gao Jingwang and Lu Xingzhou are considered old couples, hugging each other is not enough to make Gao Jingwang feel shy, but instead rolled his beautiful eyes.

"Ahem... Xiaoye and I are natural, don't you know about me? I don't take the initiative at all, it's all you who do, okay?"

Lu Xingzhou teased Gao Jingwang's ear and breathed hot air, finally making Gao Jingwang feel the temperature on his cheeks rise a little.

"Oh, stop making trouble, it's all your fault, my pan of fried dumplings is almost burnt!"

Gao Jingwang couldn't stand Lu Xingzhou's teasing, so he shyly broke away from Lu Xingzhou's arms, and then tried to concentrate on making fried dumplings.

"Hahaha~"

Lu Xingzhou smiled smugly, and then began to operate like a show.

After a while, a bowl of Xishi tofu was freshly baked.

"Please use it slowly, it may be a bit hot, so I recommend taking a small bite~"

Lu Xingzhou pushed the Xishi tofu in front of Ye Nai.

I don't know if it was Ye Nai's illusion, but she felt that the dish that Lu Xingzhou pushed over was glowing!
"I'm gonna start now."

Ye Nai nodded politely, then began to dig a little with a spoon, blowing air like a kitten, and then put it into her mouth.

It melts in the mouth, a feast for the taste buds, a lingering fragrance, and endless aftertaste.

Ye Nai once again despised Naomi's exchange of only a few dishes, and then continued to enjoy this Xi Shi tofu.

……

Space-time electric train.

Naomi was operating the machine, pulling out a delivery pipe and putting hot water into the coffee cup. The mixed coffee powder quickly produced steaming coffee.

Naomi put the coffee on the bar again, then took out two unknown spray guns and started spraying unknown ingredients into the coffee cup.

"Hahaha~"

Naomi's laughter was a little wild.

……

"Did Ryotaro cause you any trouble?"

Airi Nogami asked Ye Nai with a smile.

"Eh?"

Ye Nai swallowed a mouthful of Xi Shi tofu, and looked up at Nogami Airi blankly.

Airi Nogami's expression was slightly sad as she continued:
"Because he often fell to the ground inexplicably, and his luck was so bad that people doubted it."

"No."

Ye Nai smiled knowingly and shook her head slightly.

"is it?"

The joy on Airi Nogami's face became even brighter.

"Most of the bookshelves in the store are books about stars."

Ye Nai sighed.

"Yes, Airi likes it very much, so I arranged it like this."

Lu Xingzhou, who was lying on the bar, smiled lovingly at Airi Nogami.

Airi Nogami blinked and added with a smile:
"Don't you think it's amazing? The starlight we see now may be hundreds or thousands of years ago. There must be starlight that hasn't reached the earth yet. Maybe it will be Ryotaro's lucky star."

Airi Nogami turned on the starry sky top button under the bar, and the white ceiling instantly darkened, revealing spots of starlight.
