Chapter 648 I usually live in the store
After washing up in the room, Gu Chaoxi lay on the bed for a while and then got up.
It was a little too early to go to bed at this time, so she came out of the room without calling anyone and went down the stairs.
The cafe was still open and the lights inside were bright.
The streets outside were also bright, as night fell and many lights began to light up, giving a feeling of the bright lights and revelry of the 1990s.
She walked into the cafe through the door, and the doorbell rang twice.
Zhou Jie, who was washing cups behind the bar, looked up when he heard the voice and saw Gu Chaoxi waving at him.
"Can you make something delicious?"
"What do you want to eat?" Zhou Jie wiped his hands with a towel, poured a glass of milk and handed it to her.
It’s hot milk, which is quite thoughtful.
But in weather like this, you don’t actually need hot milk.
She sat at the bar holding a cup and looked inside. There was nothing special. It was basically some utensils that you can see today, but not as advanced.
After thinking for a while, he shook his head: "Sweet ones that melt in your mouth are the best."
"Well, I recently learned how to make a lava cake. If you don't mind waiting, I'll make it for you."
"Okay." Since I can't sleep now, I'll just wait a while.
Seeing that she agreed, Zhou Jie immediately turned around to get the things and started working.
There weren't many people in the coffee shop. There were only a few sitting by the window, occasionally glancing outside, and no one knew what they were talking about.
Gu Chaoxi was too lazy to listen. He half leaned on the bar and sipped milk. It took him a long time to finish the glass of milk.
The store was quiet, as was the outside.
I don’t know how much time has passed. Anyway, Gu Chaoxi felt that he didn’t sit here for very long, because he didn’t even finish the cup of hot milk.
Then Pei Yan walked in from the door, and after ringing the bell twice, he strode to his side and sat down.
When Zhou Jie looked up, Pei Yan just nodded.
"Maybe, is there any wine?"
The other party was surprised at first, and then seemed to understand something: "This is a coffee shop, of course, if you need it."
Then, Zhou Jie turned around, opened the door of the wooden cabinet, and took out a bottle of wine.
He pushed the wine in front of Pei Yan, handed him a glass, and then continued to work on his own things with his head down.
"Why are you down?"
"Aren't you coming down too?" Pei Yan answered Gu Chaoxi's question with a smile.
In fact, he guessed that she couldn't sleep and would come downstairs, so when Pei Yan came out, he didn't even knock on her door, but came down directly from upstairs.
The art gallery was closed at this time, so it was impossible to stay in the gallery, so the coffee shop on the first floor was the best answer.
If you go out at night, you don’t know what you might encounter, so it’s safer to stay indoors.
This comes from the time written on the hotel room card.
The hotel's hot water supply is only before 12 o'clock. There will be no hot water supply after 12 o'clock, and the hotel's door will be closed after 12 o'clock.
As for why people can come to the cafe even when the hotel door is closed, of course it is because the cafe has a door that is connected to the hotel.
The current time is 11:15 pm.
However, compared to the fact that Gu Chaoxi couldn't sleep and came downstairs at this time, he was more curious about the business hours of this coffee shop, which was actually open so late.
Therefore, after Pei Yan poured himself a glass of wine, he swung the glass and looked at the busy perimeter.
“Is the coffee shop always open late?”
"Well, generally speaking, yes." Zhou Jie was not opposed to answering such questions: "I usually live in the store, so I rest relatively late."
“That’s actually the case.”
It seemed that it was only at this time that I noticed that there were corridors and rooms behind the coffee shop. They should be offices and rooms.
Gu Chaoxi glanced over there and then looked away.
Zhou Jie finished making the cake and placed it on the bar, then took a small spoon for Gu Chaoxi.
She took it, thanked him, scooped a spoonful with a spoon and ate it: "Mm, it tastes good, your cooking skills are really good!"
Sometimes the plane does have some ability in cooking, or maybe it came from some unknown place, but in short, it's pretty good and can meet her requirements.
Although she didn't know whether this kind of satisfaction would be mixed with any messy sequelae, anyway, she would just sigh silently in her heart.
I don't know when the lights outside started to dim, and then they all went out one by one.
In an instant, it seemed as if the entire coffee shop had darkened.
But it's not a big deal.
Zhou Jie raised his head and looked outside. Several guests who were originally sitting by the window stood up and left slowly.
He walked out from behind the bar, took a towel and went to clean the table, then put all the used coffee cups in the sink, ready to wash them later.
Gu Chaoxi finished the lava cake on the plate, found a tissue to wipe his mouth, and yawned.
The night was silent, and the reflections of black waves on the glass of the café seemed a little eerie.
She threw the tissue into the trash can, raised her hand and patted Pei Yan on the shoulder: "Go back."
Zhou Jie raised his head, the cup in his hand was still being washed by water, and he didn't hear clearly what she just said.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for the cake. Let's go back and rest first." She said, stood up, and walked towards the hotel with Pei Yan.
I opened the door and the bell on the door rang again.
Zhou Jie just watched and waved silently.
When Gu Chaoxi looked back, he saw a huge shadow sliding over from the roof, and then it seemed to break out from inside, covering the surrounding area with its body with its fangs and claws.
Her eyebrows twitched uncontrollably twice, then she turned around, grabbed Pei Yan's hand, and walked quickly towards the stairs.
She only let go of his hand after they went upstairs.
The huge shadow just now, does it exist in the plane, or is it going to pull them into the illusion.
She wasn't quite sure, but it wasn't a good thing.
Pei Yan didn't see it just now, but Gu Chaoxi's expression and emotional changes showed that there was something behind him just now.
However, since she didn't say anything, it shouldn't be a serious matter.
"Ayan, go to bed early, see you tomorrow!"
She pushed Pei Yan into the room, waved at him, turned around and took a few big strides into her own room.
The whole action was done in one go, as if he was afraid that something was about to catch up.
Pei Yan looked at both sides of the corridor, which seemed to have no end.
He was silent for a moment, without stopping, he took two steps back and raised his hand to close the door.
The room was safe. He lay down on the bed. Before he fell asleep, he seemed to hear someone knocking on the door and shouting for help.
