The Buggiest System 121 The Thickface

Beside her, Lin Guiying wasn't any better. She had thoughts along the lines of, 'I'm who he considers his best friend, and you can't change that!' However, she didn't realize that the t.i.tle of best friend wasn't what Ma Xiaoli was aiming for...

On the other hand, Ma Xiaoli felt incredible glee for the first time in forever.

As everything around her made her uninterested, only this Zhou Lei gave her a feeling of bliss, especially when she was around him. Her face would be flushed if his shoulder brushed aside hers, and her hands would be all jittery when he was around.

Zhou Lei, the last and the only male of the group, felt exhausted. 'I, I just wanted to try some coffee!'

He couldn't handle this tense atmosphere, and so couldn't the waiter by the side, who craved to escape from this table.

Why... just why did he approach this table?! He had no idea what made him walk over to this G.o.dforsaken table... well, you know, except for the fact that it was his job... Anyways!

As the waiter waited for the atmosphere to ease up, and especially, for the orders, Zhou Lei gestured at Lin Hanying with his eyebrows.

"Oh, uh, well... I will order, uh..." Lin Guiying was once again reminded of her incompetence and tried to find an excuse. '...Aha!'

She placed a fist over her mouth and spoke, "Ahem, Cla.s.smate Ma, why don't you order first?"

Ma Xiaoli wasn't bothered by this. "I didn't come here to have coffee, I came here because I overheard that you were going to take Leilei here."

Zhou Lei widened his eyes. 'Where the f.u.c.k did Leilei come from?'

As he turned his head, he saw that Ma Xiaoli shrugged her shoulders at him, an innocent smile on her face.

"Xiaoli, call me Cla.s.smate Zhou, or at least just Lei... Don't call me nicknames!"

Zhou Lei hoped to find a hole just to burrow himself in as deep as he could, and if possible, make it to the other aide of the world...

Ma Xiaoli covered her mouth and chuckled. "Oops, sorry, Leilei."

Fan Xinyue speculated the actions of Ma Xiaoli. 'So this is your plan, huh?'

Meanwhile, Lin Guiying was as calm as ever... or not! While her heavenly acting skills helped keep her composed, she raged all she wanted inside her mind.

"...Well, let's cast that aside for now. So Cla.s.smate Ma, you aren't going to order?" She tried her hardest to stop herself from jumping over the table and strangling that darned woman!

"If Leilei wants me to order, then I will. Otherwise, I won't do anything. After all, I'm here for Leilei only." Without a hint of shame, Ma Xiaoli spoke.

It was then, that Zhou Lei heard the 'Ting!' inside his head. He checked the interface, and a new quest was available.

Quest: Exit the café and brew your own coffee

Description: You should have your own skills for this, young man! Why be popular by taking girls out on dates and buying them coffee, when you can be by making your own!

Reward: 100 Exotic Coffee Beans, 10 upgrade

Time limit: 2 days

Zhou Lei had no idea how to react. System had just issued a quest earlier this day to make Lin Hanying jealous, and now it was giving him this kind of nonsense quest?

'Well, at least the time limit is 2 days. I'll think about this tomorrow... For now, I gotta solve the problem at hand.'

Exiting the interface, Zhou Lei caught sight of the three girls with him.

In all honesty, how could Zhou Lei not feel a tinge of happiness?

There were three girls with him, and all of them were top-tier beauties! Except for Lin Hanying, erm...

Not to mention the fact that one of them had a crush on him, and was actively pursuing said crush.

However, if it resulted in conflicts between his friends, then someone having a crush on him didn't matter that much anymore.

"Xiaoli, please behave yourself." Zhou Lei didn't even glance at Ma Xiaoli as he said those cold words.

Ahem, it's because he was too ashamed to glance at her...

The effect worked, and Ma Xiaoli saw that Zhou Lei continued as usual, like this was a common affair for him. She fell into contemplation.

'Hmm, I see. This plan won't work since he has many pursuers similar to me. I need to change my tactics, p.r.o.nto!'

His cold hearted command didn't dishearten Ma Xiaoli at the least, in fact, it ignited her spirit even more!

Well, it worked for now, and Ma Xiaoli shut her mouth, making both Lin Guiying and Fan Xinyue feel relieved.

After dealing with that matter, Lin Guiying now had to deal with another. "Uh... how about you, Cla.s.smate Fan? You order first..."

Fan Xinyue didn't expect the girl beside her to pa.s.s the torch to her. Nevertheless, she wasn't startled.

Being a longtime regular in this café, Fan Xinyue had knowledge of every combination of coffee flavors, good and bad.

The waiter readied his pen for the onslaught of words that Fan Xinyue was about to say as she opened her mouth. Of course this waiter recognized her, she visited this café virtually every day.

"Venti Iced Caramel Macchiato, with Toffee Nut syrup and no vanilla. It's getting kinda hot these days."

The waiter wrote down the eleven familiar words on his notepad without hesitation.

Hearing her order so seamlessly, Lin Guiying's eyes lit up. 'Aha! A café expert, I presume...'

"So you like that too? Hehehe..." Lin Guiying had a sinister smile on her face.

Fan Xinyue felt a s.h.i.+ver run down her spine after hearing the small and suppressed chuckle coming from the girl beside her.

Lin Guiying continued, "...I will have that as well! And him too!"

The thickfaced Lin Guiying surprised the waiter and Fan Xinyue.

"Aren't you going to customize it...? Just copy exactly what she ordered?" The waiter had his doubts.

"What did I say? Of course just copy!"

"Ah, okay then..." After getting the orders for the three customers, the waiter rushed away from the terrifying table.
