??October 8, 20032 in the planetary calendar, Ultra Academy, Princess Cafe.
A crystal chandelier worth tens of thousands of dollars hangs from the translucent dome roof of colored glass. The arc-shaped roof decorated with colorful paintings has a smooth and natural curve. The turning point where it intersects with the wall is decorated with murals and tassels without any edges and corners. It is the style of the medieval western and southern continents. A widely popular architectural style.
Marble columns decorated with exquisite reliefs are scattered in the hall with hundreds of seats. From a load-bearing perspective, the number of marble columns is far greater than what is actually required. Through the ingenious arrangement of the designer, the wide hall without partitions naturally separates many private spaces. Those seated inside are free to choose between public and private as they wish. The sophistication and thoughtfulness of its design make every guest who comes here can't help but admire it from the bottom of their hearts.
In the vast hall, handsome men and women dressed in the uniforms of medieval palace attendants walked briskly on the golden wool carpet, providing perfect service to the guests. The movements are skillful and natural, elegant and generous, without making any noise. Elegant music slowly flowed out from the film record player that can only be found occasionally in antique stores now, and it touched the heartstrings of everyone present.
The music is based on the theme of love. It starts with a sixteen-year-old girl outing in the wild and encounters the person she likes. It gradually reaches perfection through falling in love, separation, and meeting again by chance. It ends with the happy longing for the future after the two reunite. The overall rhythm is relaxed. Joyful is the favorite piece of music of Princess Lucy Roland, who is known as the "happiest woman in the world".
Born in the Principality of Leo in the year 18532 of the planetary calendar, where transportation was far from globalized, Lucy Roland, known as the most beautiful woman in the five countries and thirteen kingdoms since she was a girl, married Fran York from a neighboring country at the age of sixteen. Prince Se became his wife. In the next thirteen years, she not only gave birth to six sons and five daughters, but also assisted her husband in uniting the two most powerful principalities to merge the seven surrounding countries. After her husband's death, she continued her unfinished business and helped His son established the most powerful United Empire in the world at that time.
Although later generations of scholars have repeatedly deduced that Lucy Rowland's extraordinary political talent played a vital role in the careers of her husband and son, the authoritative information on this aspect was unknown at the time and was deliberately concealed. Or for some other reasons, it has long been lost in the torrent of history and has not been preserved in modern times.
The only thing that has been handed down and is widely known is a diary of Lucy Rowland's life written by herself. In the notes, Lucy Rowland said nothing about all the major current events of her time. All she described in detail were the various trivial matters of life she experienced as a wife and mother.
The writing style of the notes is natural and warm, and it reveals the royal style of a powerful empire in its plainness. It is highly praised by celebrities and ladies of later generations. Not only did Lucy Rowland's name remain in history, but she also won the reputation of "the happiest woman in the world".
Located to the north of the central area of ??Ultra Academy, the Princess Cafe is well-known among ladies in the entire Central Continent. It not only perfectly reproduces the palace fashion of casual dining in the era of Princess Lucy Roland, but all the furnishings are completely in accordance with Lucy. .The detailed arrangements provided in Princess Roland's Notes, including several items such as glass mirrors, phonographs, and even Lucy Roland's old belongings, can be said to be priceless.
The store is as its name suggests. Although it is a coffee shop, the only coffee provided here is the Norbulingka coffee mentioned in Princess Roland's Notes. Men who come here for leisure can only choose one of four choices among single-quality coffee with sugar, milk, no sugar or milk, or sugar and milk.
However, even on the most ordinary business days, Princess Cafe has 115 kinds of slightly alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks and more than three times the number of specialty cakes and puffs available for consumption at any time.
At this moment, a few yellow roses in high-necked thin porcelain vases placed diagonally on the dining table covered with ivory white silk scarves in the corner near the window are in bud, and the bright green branches and leaves still have crystal dewdrops on them.
In a fine porcelain plate inlaid with gold, pure natural strawberries and red plums of almost the same size are spread evenly on the ricotta cheese cake base of the round cake. The fresh cheese is mixed with freshly baked wheat flour, exuding an attractive flavor. Sweet
"Thank you for bringing me to such a good place. Although I have heard of it before, I never thought it was such a satisfying place."
Withdrawing his distant gaze, he used the table knife in his hand to cut off a half-inch square piece of the strawberry cheese cake in front of him, and elegantly put it into his mouth with a three-pronged sterling silver cake fork. He thought about it for a moment, with a satisfied smile on his face. Yes, sitting on the chair, the purple-haired girl with waist-length hair that almost hung over the chair said with a smile.
"I'm glad that Miss Zitong likes this place." The young man opposite the girl smiled, "As long as you are satisfied with it, Miss Zitong, that is my greatest happiness."
¡°Not only do I love it here, but also dining with a gentleman like you.??is a pleasant thing. " She brushed a strand of hair hanging on her temples behind her ears and looked at the handsome young man opposite who was meticulously dressed in a silver-gray formal suit from Ultra Academy. Zi Tong'er said briskly, "However, from now on, Why haven't you spoken much since we met? "
"Because because Miss Zitong, you seem to be in a bad mood, so from just now, I have been reflecting on whether I did something wrong." After sorting out the purple jade bouquet in her hand, the girl The young man opposite smiled awkwardly.
When we first met, in those short ten seconds, the purple-haired girl who came dressed up had an ugly face. The unparalleled beauty she showed after carefully dressing up was mixed with the murderous aura faintly emanating from her body. It produced an indescribable oppressive effect, so that Su Yaoyang, who was currently sitting opposite Zi Tong and had always been extremely courageous, did not even dare to send the flowers in person, and could only hold them in his hands at an inappropriate time.
"Angry?" Zi Tong smiled after hearing what the other party said, "I'm not angry." Zi Tong, holding a knife in her hand, said as she stretched out her hand, ready to cut another piece of cake, but because of her agitated mood, she couldn't. He can control the strength of his hand so that the knife and the plate collide and make a loud noise.
"That's right! I was a little angry at that time." Zi Tong admitted frankly as he placed a large piece of cake on the plate in front of him.
"But, I'm not angry with you, it's someone else" Zi Tong, who was staring at the cake in front of her, suddenly stabbed it with a knife, and was in a bad mood again in a short period of time, said somewhat depressedly.
"No! Actually it's not the other one, I'm just angry with myself." After thinking about it, Zi Tong corrected, "I'm just dissatisfied with some of my personal issues."
"It doesn't matter now." Zi Tong showed a sweet smile again and quickly put aside her worries to comfort Su Yaoyang.
"My advantage is that I am magnanimous and don't take irrelevant things to heart. So you don't have to be so nervous." Zi Tong smiled. After speaking, she paused briefly in the coffee cup in front of Su Yaoyang.
Like most men here, Su Yaoyang did not order any other food, only a cup of coffee.
"No sugar or milk, he is just as I expected, he is a serious man." Wiping the corner of his mouth with the snow-white silk scarf in his hand, Zi Tong silently commented in his heart.
However, Zi Tong did not dislike the handsome young man in front of him. Su Yaoyang made her feel a bit like Harry. Although his personality is a bit too calm, he can give people a sense of peace of mind.
"Although he keeps a low profile personally and has always hidden himself in the shadow of Bernard Bernard, according to the latest statistical software I created, Su Yaoyang's attention and satisfaction among the women in Ultra Academy are definitely good. Ranked in the top twenty.¡±
This was the first sentence Colin Farrell said when facing the hearing of the three presidents the day after the incident of Su Yaoyang breaking into an appointment on the 26th of last month.
"Oh, is it so popular? I just don't know what kind of statistical software you make?" Although he was not interested in the rankings mentioned by Colin Farrell, Ouyang Yang had no intention of forcing him to quickly transfer to To the point. Whenever possible, Yang always tries not to interrupt other people's conversations and allows everyone to speak freely without pressure. This is Yang's consistent way of doing things.
"This is a branch tool that I developed when I was collecting data on the women of our Ultra Academy and preparing to build a related website. Based on all relevant questionnaires and subsequent reverse tracking in the past 120 years, I corrected some biases. "
"Although the current information is far less detailed than that of girls, because the overall horizontal distribution curve has been drawn, as long as you know the detailed information of a male member of Ultra Academy, you can find out where he is in Ultra Academy The general position of women's hearts, and the more detailed the individual information, the higher the accuracy of the ranking. Its specific working principle is"
¡°Where is my position?¡± After letting Farrell talk for two hours and finally getting the information he needed, Ouyang Yang asked casually before Colin Farrell left.
"This" Before answering this question, Farrell unexpectedly hesitated. However, his innate persistence in the accuracy and authority of the information allowed him to answer Ouyang Yang's question truthfully.
"Mr. Yang, you became the president of the club in the first year of school. In the following two years, the club grew rapidly. Now our Natural History Research Club has become a force that no one dares to underestimate. Our male club members also receive a lot of attention in the women's group of Ultra AcademyAs the president of the research club, your evaluation is naturally risingsoyou are currently ranked in the system.??The approximate location is¡±
¡°¡It¡¯s one hundred and thirteen thousand eight hundred and twenty-seven.¡±
After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Colin Farrell told the final result.
"Haha, what a good ranking." Ouyang Yang, whose face was covered by the coffee cup and could not see the specific expression on his face, laughed. On the side, Zi Tong'er had already bent over with laughter.
"Miss Zi Tong, you seem to like this drink very much." Looking at Zi Tong holding the cup in both hands with a spring breeze-like smile on her face, Su Yaoyang tentatively opened the topic.
"Yes, thank you for recommending this drink. Not only do you have a sense of fashion, but you also have elegant taste." After calming down, with an encouraging smile, Zi Tong raised her glass and said. Su Yaoyang still feels too reserved to her now. This is not the result Zi Tong wants. She wants him to relax as soon as possible.
Although Ouyang Yang's performance this morning disappointed her, it was just a prelude to today's entire date plan. The bad start couldn't stop Zi Tong from completing the date as planned.
"You are such a charming man." As her mood improved inexplicably, the heat in Zi Tong's words also increased. At the same time, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, every frown and every smile became more alluring.
"There must be many girls around you on weekdays, right?" Zi Tong said with a wave of eyes that didn't know whether it was anger or resentment.
"I don't feel that way." Su Yaoyang replied. "I've never paid too much attention to the women around me." Su Yaoyang said hesitantly.
"Then why did you notice me?" She raised her eyebrows slightly and stared at Su Yaoyang with purple eyes.
"ThisI" There was a slight sweat on his forehead, and Su Yaoyang didn't know how to deal with it for a while. He had never thought about this question carefully, so he could not give an answer quickly. And once Zi Tong felt that what he just said was just a duplicity and a perfunctory way to please, the consequences would be disastrous. Fortunately, what Zi Tong'er said next made him sigh in relief.
"Is it because I'm beautiful and smart, or because I have a lively and generous personality?" Zi Tong said with a smile, "Or maybe I'm kind and considerate, and my actions are ladylike. I have many advantages, you might as well say them directly without feeling embarrassed."
Hearing Zi Tong¡¯s words, Su Yaoyang couldn¡¯t help but smile.
In the Ultra Academy where many girls gather, it cannot be said that there are absolutely no girls with the above-mentioned advantages, but the only one who can say it so openly is the one in front of me.
After all, in this world, there are really not many girls who can add a lot of compliments to themselves without blushing or heartbeat. Even if they think highly of themselves in their hearts, they will not show it directly in front of men.
Now, Zi Tong'er placed her elbows on the table, crossed her hands, and held her pointed chin. Her big purple eyes blinked, looking at the young man in front of her with interest, waiting for his answer.
It¡¯s just
Although the smile on Zi Tong's face is charming and intoxicating, those who are really familiar with Zi Tong'er know that her behavior at this time is a very dangerous signal.
Whenever the purple-haired girl who likes to pose problems to people responds with this expression, a dilemma of no way out and pursuers behind is often placed in front of her.
Because, in this case, what Zi Tong cares about is often not the answer itself, she is just waiting for a chance for the other party to make a mistake.
And if you can¡¯t cleverly avoid the trap set in Zi Tong¡¯s language, then there will be a situation like the judge asking the prisoner, ¡®Would you choose to behead or hang? ¡¯ scene, although the speed of pain is different, the final outcome will not be any different.
But Su Yaoyang, who was in front of Zi Tong, was unaware of all this. After the initial nervousness and excitement, he lowered his head and began to seriously think about the questions Zi Tong raised.
"Actually, I have known you, Miss Zi Tong, a long time ago." Su Yaoyang said, "On a Wednesday afternoon almost a year ago, in the small coffee shop where we first agreed to meet today, Miss Zi Tong Sit on the third seat by the window. However, even though I was sitting not far from you, Miss Zi Tong, you didn't notice me at all."
"Is there such a thing?" Although shielding irrelevant people from the visual transmission path is the specialty of Zi Tong'er, Queen of the Thousand Faces of the Natural History Research Society, and it is not something worth making a fuss about, she still cooperated with the atmosphere He made a surprised expression. "I'm really, really sorry. I must have been thinking about something at the time, so"
"I don't feel that my self-esteem has been frustrated." Su Yaoyang smiled, "After all, Miss Zitong, you finally noticed me and talked to me."
"From that meeting??Miss Zitong, your shadow is left in my heart. But because as the first secretary of the Economic Coordination Committee, I have a lot of work to deal with every day, and Miss Zi Tong rarely appears in public, so I have no chance to see Miss Zi Tong again for a long time. "
"Although I often think of Miss Zi Tong, I have never been able to determine my thoughts. Until that noon in July this year, Miss Zi Tong, you appeared in the fifth cafeteria"
"At that timeyou were there" A blush flew across her face. Zi Tong'er, who had been perfectly controlling the atmosphere of the conversation today, seemed to be at a loss for the first time.
The appearance of Purple Eyes in the "Shadow Teeth Examination Battle" was one of the few times she exposed herself during her ten years at Ultra Academy. Although this has attracted countless fans, Zi Tong himself is not very proud of it.
"Miss Zitong, I see every move you make." With deep admiration in his eyes, Su Yaoyang said with a smile, "You have to endure very hard in order to successfully pass the exam for the president of your company."
"You know!?" Zi Tong was really surprised this time.
"Although I didn't understand it at the time, based on the subsequent data analysis, this is the only possibility." Su Yaoyang said with a smile.
"Ying is like my brother" Without denying it, Zi Tong chuckled and murmured in a low voice: "Although I don't have a biological brother, I think he treats me better than my biological brother."
"That's right! You started sending flowers after that day." Zi Tong said as if he suddenly remembered something.
"That's right. I made my choice on that day in July." Su Yaoyang nodded, "It's a feeling that can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words. Although I have only met twice in total, my heart has already moved for I pointed the way.¡±
"Miss Zitong, I think I will all like the advantages you just mentioned. But" Su Yaoyang summoned up the courage to speak in one breath, "If you really ask me to give you a reason, I can't give an answer. Apart from the fact that now I like and admire you so much"
¡°¡I don¡¯t have any reason.¡±
"Yeah?" After receiving a completely unexpected answer, Zi Tong stared at the young man in front of him for a long time as if looking at an alien alien. Then he blinked his big purple eyes, lowered his head and sipped the juice in the cup with a straw. , looking thoughtful.
A long time has passed
??Zi Tong raised her head and smiled
Although Zi Tong'er has been smiling since the meeting.
I was smiling when I saw his dumb look when we met; I was smiling when I fiddled with the pink silk ribbon on the rush hat in my hand after sitting down; I was smiling when I looked at the new pastries placed in front of me by the waiter; I was smiling when I looked sideways at the scenery outside the window. He is smiling all the time; he is also laughing when he is caressing the ruby ??drop earrings beside his ears with his hands
But, only the smile that appeared in front of him at this moment made Su Yaoyang's inexplicable nervousness that had accumulated since meeting today disappear.
"I guess what you said makes sense. I remember a certain fool in our family said, 'Sometimes, no news is good news.' So, sometimes"
