Band Girl Drink Mixing Action
Page 179
The unexpected sudden attack only made the person he liked blink slightly, and after a moment he said "Wow" as if he had reacted. Unfortunately, the tone of cooperation was too strong, and there was no shyness or evasion that Su Shi wanted to see.
"Is that proof enough?"
"Hmm, okay?"
These should have been passionate words, but they were so understated. They were clearly not even lovers, but rather seemed to have entered the dull and tired state of love after being together for a long time. However, this feeling might actually suit Su Shi's taste better.
The two walked to the dining table and sat down opposite each other on either side of the table.
Su Shi took out the tea set. Although it was just to make tea, if she was determined to follow the complicated classical tea ceremony techniques, it would take a lot of effort. If she were alone at home, Su Shi would definitely not bother to take care of so many formalities, but today she was not alone, so Su Shi decided to take it seriously and use some of the things she learned in the Moon Forest.
In order to avoid being labeled a "rude and rude upstart", Su Shike studied and practiced seriously for a long time.
In addition, it will probably take people from other groups quite a while. If you rush into it, you will have to wait even longer, and the tea will not taste good if it gets cold.
Picking tea, washing utensils... While Su Shi was carrying out each step in an orderly manner, Qingchuan Xiang also had his own things to do.
As the weather cooled, Qingchuan Xiang, recovering from a fever, wore a small jacket. The built-in hood effectively protected his head from the cold wind. But in the crowded, unventilated, and stuffy Su Shi's house, with the heater on, the jacket took on a new purpose.
Qingchuan Xiang grabbed the long sleeve of his coat and stuffed it directly into the entrance of the other sleeve of his clothes. Starting from the sleeve, all the other fabrics of the clothes were stuffed into the other sleeve. Finally, he simply tidied it up and evenly distributed the stuffing in the sleeve. This not only made it look more beautiful, but also made it a pillow with just the right softness and hardness.
Even for a jacket with a hood like this, when you tuck the clothes into the sleeves, you can leave the hood outside instead of tucking it in. This way, when you lie on your head, you can use the hood to cover your face, block out the light, and get a better sleep.
"This is really... a fantastic idea."
While Sushi was working on her task, she didn't stop to pay attention to Qingchuan Xiang's movements. She was very curious when she saw Xiang tucking the clothes into the sleeves, and she was even more surprised when the finished product came out. Yuezhisen couldn't see such a little invention. If the teacher found out, she would definitely be punished.
"hey-hey."
Qingchuan Xiang rested his head comfortably on the homemade pillow. By tilting his head, he could not only see Su Shi's well-maintained hands making tea in a pleasing way, but also see the leisurely scenery of high-rise buildings and low clouds outside the floor-to-ceiling window behind the dining table.
Although the floor of my apartment is also very high, it is indeed a bit narrow compared to the Su family's view.
It’s a very novel feeling. The last time I came to Su Shijia, I wasn’t in such a good mood to appreciate it.
Soon, it was not just visually pleasing, Qingchuan Xiang could gradually smell a hint of tea fragrance coming from it.
With Qingchuan Xiang's experience, she could roughly identify several possible types of tea just by smelling the initial tea aroma. As long as she could find a few important characteristics, this was actually not difficult.
The tea that Su Shi was brewing was freshly brewed, but if it was new tea, the aroma would probably rush out immediately. Tea like this, which is bland and almost fragranceless if you don't look closely, is most likely tea that has been aged for a long time. Although it lacks fragrance, the tea flavor is often mellower and the aged flavor is more prominent.
"Su Shi seems to prefer this more elegant scent?" Qingchuan Xiang asked curiously. Su Shi knew how to use aromatherapy. The last time she came to Su Shi's house and woke up in the middle of the night, she could smell a faint scent in the room as soon as she got up. It was similar to the scent of tea now, light and not diffused.
"Ah."
Su Shi hummed lightly in response.
As mentioned before, she prefers long-term companionship rather than strong feelings.

Chapter 369 Bai Yueguang
"The tea is ready. Xiaoxiang, would you like to try it first?"
"Okay."
Su Shi poured half a cup of tea for Qingchuan Xiang and gently pushed it in front of Qingchuan Xiang. Xiang stretched lazily, unwinding his body that had been hunched over the table for a while, and unconsciously made a strange and meaningless whimpering sound from his mouth.
Su Shi poured herself some tea, then sat down with Qingchuan Xiang and looked at each other:
"Whose drink would Xiaoxiang be more excited about?"
"Well, I don't really prioritize drinks." Qingchuan Xiang picked up the tea brewed by Su Shi and gently blew away the heat. "If I were to say which one I'm most looking forward to, I'd be most excited for Xiao Deng's. The unknown thrill of opening a blind box is definitely more appealing than a drink I've already tried many times. On the other hand, I've already had the coffee that Li Xi chose at RiNG many times, so it's naturally less novel."
When talking about this, Qingchuan Xiang showed a very proud expression. I watched Lixi grow up step by step!
Qingchuan Xiang took a sip and drank the top layer of tea that was blown away so it was not so hot. The unique aroma of the tea and the slightly astringent taste on the tip of the tongue are its most unique advantages. The old tea chosen by Su Shi is even more fragrant and concentrated than the new tea. After just one sip, a lovely smile from the heart immediately appeared on Qingchuan Xiang's face.
To be honest, Su Shi's tea-brewing skills are still a little lacking. To fully bring out the rich flavor of old tea is not something that can be done by just pouring water. But if the old tea is brewed for too long, the light tea fragrance will become astringent and bitter, and there will be no "fragrance" at all.
However, Qingchuan Xiang doesn't care about other people's drink-making skills. When drinking drinks made by others, what she cares most about is the "thought" contained in them.
"Su Shi."
"Well, what's wrong?"
"Although I'm not as unsatisfied as before, I still find it hard to satisfy you~"
"Cough cough!"
Qingchuan Xiang's sudden remarks startled Su Shi so much that she almost coughed out the tea she had just drunk. She took a napkin to wipe the water from the corner of her mouth in a somewhat awkward manner.
"What is Xiaoxiang suddenly talking about?" Su Shi said trying to remain calm.
"Well, Su Shi, are you a little unsatisfied?"
"I don't mean for you to repeat yourself..."
Su Shi quickly took another sip of tea to calm her nerves, her heart filled with embarrassment and surprise. Could it be that her usual behavior was so obvious and unbearable? Although Xiao Xiang had always been very perceptive, emotionally she shouldn't have made such an easy judgment.
"Oh, speaking of which, Su Shi, it seems you don't know yet."
Seeing Su Shi's reaction, Qingchuan Xiang remembered that she seemed to have not told Su Shi about her little special ability. The last time she came to Su Shi's house, she fell asleep after drinking the thick soup made by Su Shi. She slept until late at night and had no chance to explain to Su Shi.
"It's hard to explain in detail, Sushi. Just understand it as me being able to understand the emotions and thoughts behind other people's drinks by drinking them." Qingchuan Xiang casually said something that challenged Sushi's understanding of normal humans. "But it's actually not a very practical skill. After all, even if I can understand other people's emotions through this, if my own understanding of emotions is distorted, it will still be useless."
"Then... the last time Xiaoxiang came to my house."
The first thing Su Shi thought of was the last time Xiao Xiang fell asleep after drinking the soup she made. She remembered that according to Qingchuan Xiang himself, soup could be regarded as a drink.
"That's why," Qingchuan Xiang said with a smile, "At that time, Su Shi was the most unsatisfied. All she had was memories of 'Haruhi Shadow', and there was a considerable filter. At that time, the whole world seemed to have become warm and cozy. The energy was really too great.
"And now..."
Qingchuan Xiang raised the teacup in his hand and shook the tea in it.
“Although it has become much more ordinary, unlike the elusive ‘shadow’, it is much more solid and provides a real, tangible warmth that makes people feel at ease.
"To be honest, it's not an exaggeration to say that the soup we had last time was fake wine."
Su Shi shyly looked away. She felt uncomfortable with her feelings being revealed to others. Moreover, Xiao Xiang described her as "unsatisfied"... How could I be a shameless woman?
"Don't be shy, this is a good thing~" Qingchuan Xiang continued to say with a smile, not understanding Su Shi's feelings at all, "Su Shi also likes everyone in the band, right?"
"No."
"You're being so arrogant again. You just said you liked me so frankly."
"Because it's not enough." Su Shi, who usually plays the role of a mother, suddenly became childish and a little angry. "Everyone in mygo hasn't had a live performance yet."
Qingchuan Xiang seemed to understand something: "Because there was a live performance during CRYCHIC?"
"...Hmm." Su Shi pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and then said frankly, "I still can't forget CRYCHIC, or rather, I may never forget it in my life.
"Mygo is good now, but it's not enough."
The white moonlight should just be a ray of nostalgia, but if reality is not as bright as the moonlight, then one will always suddenly and uncontrollably feel nostalgic at inappropriate times.
Su Shi needs a live, a live with everyone, to completely bury that white moonlight deep in his heart, until then he can truly separate from the past.
"The live show is this weekend, isn't it?" Qingchuan Xiang said softly, "We've already prepared a lot for it. Everyone is looking forward to our first live show, and there will probably be more in the future."
Qingchuan Xiang's words made Su Shi blink. After understanding the meaning, she asked happily, "Xiao Xiang, you won't leave the band after this live?"
"I didn't say I was leaving." Qingchuan Xiang's tone was not so firm.
"Because you, Xiaoxiang, are such an unfeeling person." Su Shi remembered Xiaoxiang's usual heartless appearance, and poked her with some resentment.
"Not really, right?"
Qingchuan Xiang shrank his neck and continued to drink tea, only to find that he had already finished half a cup of tea.
"In that case, Xiaoxiang, why don't you prove that you are not a heartless person?" Seeing this, Su Shi stood up, picked up the teapot, walked around the table and sat down at the seat next to Qingchuan Xiang, but did not rush to pour tea for Qingchuan Xiang. Instead, he pointed at his lips with the index finger of one hand.
Su Shi, how do you want me to prove...?

Chapter 370
The fragrance of tea fills the air, leaving a lingering taste on your lips and teeth.
The tea, or perhaps some other liquid mixed together, made a tiny, barely perceptible gurgling sound that no one could hear except the two people who were standing nearby. The only two people who could hear it felt that the sound was too deafening.
After all, the tea is stirring back and forth between the lips and teeth at this moment, and the sound rolls out from the tip of the tongue, and is transmitted all the way to the brain in the most direct way, bringing an indescribable strong feeling.
Drinking tea has always been a very relaxing and enjoyable thing. Whether it is Earl Grey or any other kind of tea, the warm tea with its unique aroma flowing through the mouth is a kind of enjoyment in itself. Any unnecessary action seems to be superfluous...
But it seems that there is now a different way to experience it.
Qingchuan Xiang felt that the other party suddenly wanted to drink more tea, and his mouth gradually became fiercer. He was no longer satisfied with just pouring the tea into his mouth naturally when his lips touched the rim of the cup. He even started to suck it, causing the sound of water to gradually become louder.
"Su Shi...the kitchen is not far from here." Qingchuan Xiang reminded him tactfully.
"..."
The soft tongue finally slowed down, after all, the tea was almost finished.
But Su Shi didn't feel that his thirst was effectively relieved at all. Instead, the feeling of thirst gradually spread from his mouth and into his limbs, bones, and internal organs.
"Xiao Xiang, you're so cunning..."
"I didn't do anything. It's better to say that you, Su Shi, just wanted to bully me."
"Unfeeling, a bad woman, a fickle woman..."
"I think being heartless and fickle should not appear in the same person at the same time. Aren't these two contradictory words?" Qingchuan Xiang asked very seriously. Her untimely and out-of-touch speech and flat tone seemed to be no different from her usual self, but Su Shi could hear a slight tremor in it.
A tremor that is difficult to hide.
Su Shi, who noticed this change, suddenly felt happy.
"Is this Xiaoxiang's first time?"
Refers to sitting together with others and drinking tea.
"No," Qingchuan Xiang answered quickly, "It's Xiangzi."
There is no need to spend too much time thinking and recalling. After all, Qingchuan Xiang did drink tea with Xiangzi, in a double sense.
"Is it."
What surprised Qingchuan Xiang was that he thought Su Shi would be unhappy after hearing this, but she didn't seem to care that much.
"I thought you, Su Shi, would be unhappy about this, or would be more restrained." Since he was puzzled, Qingchuan Xiang asked directly.
"Converge, why converge?"
Su Shi blinked, his fake smile on his face carrying a foxy cunningness.
"In many novels and TV dramas, I've seen a plot where two friends, after one of them finds out they're in love with the same person, voluntarily withdraws. While I'm a little confused by this, it seems people are really wary of a friend falling in love with the same person, especially since whoever expresses their feelings first always gains some kind of...moral high ground."
Qingchuan Xiang looked at Su Shi's face, reached out and symbolically pulled the hands that were wrapped around his back and tightly hugged him away, signaling Su Shi not to hold him so tightly.
"Although your relationship with Xiangzi isn't exactly good right now."
"Because of my own experience, and what you said to me back then, Xiaoxiang, I now understand a truth." Su Shi lowered her head and wanted to continue sipping her tea, but was gently turned away. "If you want something, you have to fight for it yourself.
"I have no obligation to give up the person I like."
"Have I become a prized commodity that everyone fights over?"
"Xiao Xiang has always been very popular. It would be strange if she wasn't sought after, right?" Su Shi said this with a hint of helplessness, "Not to mention things that happened in the past, even just now, Li Xi glared at me secretly many times just because of you, Xiao Xiang.
"Although I had certain expectations, I was still a little surprised to find that even Li Xi cared so much about Xiao Xiang. When did you two become so close?"
"Maybe it was the last time we went camping...?"
Qingchuan Xiang said somewhat uncertainly.
"So, Xiaoxiang, what do you think?"
"What are you thinking?" Qingchuan Xiang blinked and repeated Su Shi's last few words.
"Don't act stupid at this time." Su Shi hugged Qingchuan Xiang tightly in annoyance, and then loosened her arms again. "Xiao Xiang, what do you think of us? Well, I'd better ask Xiao Xiang what she thinks of me first."
"I like you all very much."
