Chapter 53 – Yirgacheffe AndOutspoken

However, although Yan Xiaopei lookedat Yang Yi affectionately, Yang Yi didn’t understand. He clapped his hands, andwent straight to the bar, which was his own world.

“Buy you coffee, of course,it’s no problem!”

Xixi was still a little smug lookingat her beautiful appearance in the glass partition. When she saw her father go,she also hurriedly jumped down from the sofa and followed him.

Tens of thousands of amperes ofcurrent was left in the air. Yan Xiaopei glanced at Yang Yi’s back a little bitof resentment. She looked back at Yan Yingkai, who was staring at her shoes,and reached out to pull him. (TN: I have no idea what the tens of thousands ofamperes of current means. If I have to guess, she was trying to create sparksbetween them but it was completely ignored.)

However, the little guy, who was ina bad mood, refused. He avoided his mother’s hand, straightened his neck and walkedahead.

“You go play with Sister Xixi.As a big brother, you should take good care of Sister Xixi…” Yan Xiaopeididn’t lose her temper, but gently persuaded him.

Xixi went ahead and took her seat.It was the one closest to her father among the high chairs in front of the bar!Although it was a bit high, Xixi still climbed it up. The little girl’sathletic talent was quite high!

“I want to drink too!” Xixilooked at her father eagerly.

Yang Yi apologetically gestured toYan Xiaopei, who sat down next to him, and then said to Xixi, “You can’tdrink coffee yet. Papa will give you milk to drink!”

It was actually not possible for Xixito drink coffee. She had asked for it before. However, when Yang Yi gave her asip, the little girl never mentioned drinking coffee again!

Because Yang Yi, this guy, was justtoo bad, he gave Xixi the drink that has the most bitter and astringent taste,ESPRESSO. Yang Yi himself thought that it has the most authentic coffee taste,but people who do not drink coffee will find it more bitter than traditionalChinese medicine! (TN: Just too bad – doesn’t know what he was doing/clueless)

Poor little Xixi…

“Okay!” Xixi twisted herlittle butt, looking for the most comfortable position, holding the back of thechair, “But Xixi wants to drink from a cup!”

She used to use milk bottles, but Xixifelt that she has grown up!

Um, like this aunt, drink from a cup!

“Okay, okay, okay!” YangYi was very obedient to her daughter.

“By the way, Kei, would youlike some milk, too?” Yang Yi asked without raising his head as he pouredthe milk powder.

Yan Yingkai was pouting, standing atthe back, kicking his mother’s chair with his head down. Although not veryintense, but he was also moody!

“You haven’t thanked Uncle YangYi.” Yan Xiaopei pulled him to the front, but Yan Yingkai turned his headand was very stubborn.

Yang Yi moved very quickly, and two cupsof milk were brought over, steaming hot, with a small silver spoon on them.

“It’s a little hot, Xixi, Kei. Don’tdrink too fast you two.” Yang Yi said with a smile.

Yan Xiaopei took care of it. Yang Yifelt relieved and went back to making coffee.

“Try Yirgacheffe today. This maybe more suitable for women’s taste.” Yang Yi smiled and brought the cup toYan Xiaopei. “This coffee bean is not easy to buy. What can be bought in themarket is not very authentic. Fortunately, I found a good supplier.”

Before even drinking the coffee, YanXiaopei could smell a mellow fragrance, which felt a little like the fragranceof jasmine flowers in her shop.

Yang Yi hesitated for a moment, buthe still brought the sugar jar over. He said: “This coffee is best drinkwithout adding sugar. If you add sugar, it will affect the taste. But if youdon’t drink coffee often, you may not be able to accept the bitterness. You’dbetter mix it according to your taste.”

“Thank you!” Yan Xiaopeisaid with a smile, “Why haven’t I heard of this Yirgacheffe you’re talkingabout? Do you have any idea of its background?”

Its background may be big!

When it comes to the topics he’sinterested in, Yang Yi becomes somewhat in high spirit: “It is normal thatyou haven’t heard of Yirgacheffe. Many people only know cappuccino, latte andmocha when drinking coffee…”

“What are those?” Yan Xiaopeiasked curiously, “I haven’t heard of those either.”

Oh, right, there are no such namesin this world!

Yang Yi laughed it off and said,”Those are just different ways of drinking coffee, but in fact, there aremany different type coffee beans to begin with. Only those who research aboutcoffee will pay attention to the types of coffee beans.”

“The Yirgacheffe I’m talkingabout is a type of coffee bean. It comes from a small town at an altitude of 1800-2000meters above sea level in a large country in northeastern Africa!” Yang Yisaid.

“Coffee in Africa?” Yan Xiaopeiwas surprised. “I thought coffee was made in South America.”

Yang Yi was a little speechless. Hesaid, “You’re talking about North America, right? Guba is a country inNorth America, or Central America”. The names of some countries in thisworld are translated differently from his previous lives.

Yan Xiaopei stick out her tongue bashfully,and was very playful.

“In fact, the origin of coffeewas very early. it was first discovered in Africa, a region called (Kaffa),which is why the name coffee came into being.” Yang Yi explained,”Coffee is grown all over the world, mainly in Africa, Indonesia, andCentral and South America. Of course, Guba is quite famous!”

Yang Yi can talk about this topicfor a whole day, but it seems that Yan Xiaopei is a little distracted. In fact,she has little interest in coffee beans. Instead, her attention was placed onYang Yi’s tough face and strong arms.

“Drink it while it’s hot!”When Yang Yi noticed this, he lost interest, pointed to the coffee that had nosteam coming out, and said.

Yan Xiaopei poured a lot of sugar. Shereally didn’t like the bitter taste of coffee.

She took a sip gracefully, and hereyes suddenly lit up.

“How is it? It’s good, right?” Yang Yi said with a smile.

“It tastes very good!” YanXiaopei sincerely praised, “There is a kind of taste, how to describe it,like the feeling of fruit wine.”

“Yes, this coffee here has avery unique aroma of citrus and lemon fruit.” Yang Yi said, “Ofcourse, I only roasted it moderately, keeping the soft acidity, and if I roastedit deeply, the fragrance would be even more concentrated.”

But isn’t that the unique sourtaste?

In such a slow chat, Yan Xiaopei hada second cup, but she really had no interest in the origin of coffee, andgradually, she shifted the topic.

“Yang Yi, why did you suddenly thinkof tying Xixi’s hair today?” Yan Xiaopei asked curiously.

Yang Yi was scrubbing the milk cupsof Xixi and Yan Yingkai. He didn’t lift his head and answered casually:”Oh, her mother said that the way I tied it didn’t look good, and gave me atask.”

The cup in Yan Xiaopei’s shook violently.Fortunately, she didn’t spill the coffee. She put the cup down, smiledreluctantly, and said, “So that’s it.” .t

“Xixi is so beautiful. Hermother must be a great beauty, isn’t she?” Yan Xiaopei was bitter in hisheart, but pretended to say it as if nothing had happened.

When Xixi, who was next to BigBrother Little Kai and was gazing at the latter in speechless dismay, heard it,she immediately turned around, and said loudly: “My Mama is the mostbeautiful!”

Yang Yi smiled faintly. “Um, Xixiinherited more of her mother’s gene. Fortunately, she didn’t grow up as big as Idid.”

“But why haven’t I seen yourwife?” Yan Xiaopei felt that the coffee she had just drank was like a fermentedfruit, sour and bitter, but she could not show it. She could only fight hard.

“Mama is on a businesstrip!” Xixi answered in place of her father.

The final bubble burst……

“I see. If there is a chance,I’d like to know her…” Yan Xiaopei drank the coffee in the cup, feeling extremelybitter, and adding so much sugar seemed to be useless.

She couldn’t even hear what Yang Yi wassaying. She just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible, run away fromhere, and never come again.

As a woman who has been hurt becauseof a mistress, Yan Xiaopei wants to persue her own love, and does not want todestroy the happiness of others.

It seems that all the previous questions have been answered. No wonder he was indifferent. It turned out that his heart already belonged to someone.
