She came with the light

Xu Xiaosen rubbed his nose, squinted his eyes, looked at the extremely bitter cup of coffee in front of him, and swallowed his saliva.

She clasped her hands together and let out a long sigh.

Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at her with a smile.

"Okay, don't think about it anymore. There will always be a way out when you reach the mountain."

Xu Xiaosen spoke to the coffee cup, then drank up the coffee in the cup in one breath.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was speechless and didn't know what to say.

Just now, Xu Xiaosen ordered an American coffee without sugar. The bitter taste at the beginning almost made Xu Xiaosen suffocate.

The taste of the coffee was so bitter that it distorted the expression on Xu Xiaosen's face.

However, Xu Xiaosen also knew in his heart that this bitterness would eventually pass and become a memory.

Just as Xu Xiaosen was lamenting the hardships of life, a different kind of light appeared.

An old man from the coffee shop came over, his face covered in dust.

The old man smiled and said slowly, "Girl, do you think this cup of coffee is a bit bitter?"

Xu Xiaosen looked at the old man in confusion, "Yes, it was so bitter that I almost couldn't swallow it."

The old man smiled and said, "In fact, life is like this cup of coffee, full of bitterness and challenges. But only by overcoming the bitterness can you taste the sweetness."

Xu Xiaosen looked at the elder curiously.

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't understand where the old man suddenly appeared from.

"Hahahaha!" the old man laughed heartily.

Xu Xiaosen couldn't help but laugh too.

She thought about the problems she was facing, and realized that maybe they weren't that bad after all.

Perhaps, as long as Xu Xiaosen relaxes his mind, he will be able to feel a different state.

Xu Xiaosen stared at the old man with wide eyes.

This old man seemed to have gone through all the hardships in life.

In his smile, Xu Xiaosen found many ways to solve problems.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was sitting next to him, also thinking about something.

The old man ordered a fancy latte, sat at the table next to him, and then said slowly, "Child, since you have come to this world, you must open your heart."

Xu Xiaosen nodded.

The old man continued, "Embrace every possible challenge, so that you can taste the sweetness of life."

"Oh, that's quite delicious." The old man sipped his coffee, thoughtfully.

Xu Xiaosen felt his eyes brighten.

The old man's words suddenly woke her up.

She suddenly felt that life was not so scary after all. The same was true for work.

As long as you face it with a smile, everything will become simple.

The old man's words seemed to give Xu Xiaosen endless inspiration, making her feel that all problems could be easily solved.

Xu Xiaosen smiled and ordered another cup of hot latte, putting aside his worries.

So, Xu Xiaosen, the dusty old man, and Cheng Xiaoxiao spent a pleasant morning together.

They discussed everything in life and shared each other's happiness and bitterness.

The old man's words gave Xu Xiaosen and Cheng Xiaoxiao a sudden enlightenment.

Maybe that cup of bitter coffee will become their common memory in the future.

It's almost lunch time.

Cheng Xiaoxiao suggested going to the Korean restaurant where they didn’t get to eat last time.

Xu Xiaosen also thought it was great.

"If we hadn't met Peng Xiaofan last time, we would have been able to eat it. This time we must go to eat bibimbap." Xu Xiaosen muttered.

Cheng Xiaoxiao pulled the corners of her mouth slightly and smiled.

Xu Xiaosen didn't know about the relationship between Cheng Xiaoxiao and Peng Xiaofan, and he didn't shy away from it. "I don't know why those women like this Mr. Peng, a playboy."

Cheng Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and smiled.

Xu Xiaosen stood up, said goodbye to the old man at the next table, and left with Cheng Xiaoxiao.

Xu Xiaosen and Cheng Xiaoxiao strolled to the side of the office building. The Korean restaurant was right next to it, a place they missed last time.

When we arrived at the Korean restaurant, luckily there weren't many people in the restaurant today, so many seats were empty.

The whole store is decorated simply and exudes Korean style.

It makes you feel like you are in the streets of Seoul.

Cheng Xiaoxiao looked around. The environment here was indeed nice. No wonder she met Peng Shao who booked the place at noon last time.

There is an exquisite traditional Korean painting hanging on the wall of the store. The delicate lines outline the landscape and the graceful woman in Hanfu.

The overall environment reminds people of spring in Seoul. Walking along the Art and Culture Road next to Yi Sun-sin Square, such paintings can be seen everywhere.

They dot the streets and alleys, and standing there feels like being in a magnificent palace of art.

In addition, soft Korean pop music is played in the store, making people feel as if they can hear the light melodies played by street musicians on Hongdae Street in Seoul.

The whole space is filled with a strong Korean atmosphere, making people linger.

Xu Xiaosen chose a comfortable corner.

Cheng Xiaoxiao followed and sat next to him.

The two sat down and prepared to enjoy a delicious lunch.

Xu Xiaosen happily told Cheng Xiaoxiao that the features of this Korean restaurant are a variety of Korean snacks and authentic barbecue, as well as special barbecue soup and kimchi bibimbap.

For example, one of their signature dishes is Bibimbap.

The rice and various ingredients are cooked over charcoal fire, giving off an enticing aroma that makes you salivate.

In addition, their barbecue is also very authentic. Not only is the meat tender and juicy, but the dipping sauce is also unique in flavor.

This is definitely a favorite among foodies.

Xu Xiaosen enthusiastically described the characteristics and flavor of each dish to Cheng Xiaoxiao, making Cheng Xiaoxiao full of anticipation for the Korean cuisine she was about to taste.

Cheng Xiaoxiao also suddenly understood why Peng Shao came here to book the entire place.

While ordering food, Xu Xiaosen and Cheng Xiaoxiao started a discussion.

Based on his own experience, Xu Xiaosen recommended the signature dishes to the waiter.

She carefully recommended the store's signature barbecue platter and seafood tofu pot.

Every time she ordered a dish, she introduced it in the same way. Her introduction made Cheng Xiaoxiao salivate.

Cheng Xiaoxiao also expressed her own preferences.

The two of them chose some dishes that they both liked.

For example, Xu Xiaosen likes spicy food.

So they decided to order spicy fried chicken and kimchi rice.

While waiting for the food to be served, Xu Xiaosen talked about the recently popular Korean dramas and Korean music.

Cheng Xiaoxiao also enjoyed it and talked about her favorite stars and singers.

The two were chatting happily when the dishes were served.

Xu Xiaosen and Cheng Xiaoxiao began to taste various Korean dishes.

The aroma of barbecue is wafting in the air, and the seafood tofu pot also exudes a strong seafood flavor. There are also special kimchi and snacks.

The sumptuous dining table was filled with all kinds of tempting delicacies.

Cheng Xiaoxiao shouted, "Oh my God! It's too late!"

The two of them kept tasting the food, praising it generously and enjoying the pleasure of dining.

Xu Xiaosen has put aside the troubles he had just encountered at work.

Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at Xu Xiaosen's stomach and whispered, "If you eat any more, I'm afraid you'll turn into a pig."

Xu Xiaosen swallowed a large piece of spicy cabbage and waved his hand in disdain: "Impossible, I'm so thin."

Cheng Xiaoxiao laughed out loud, "Are you sure?"

Xu Xiaosen put on a complacent expression: "Sure."

Cheng Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows disdainfully, "I hope so."

Xu Xiaosen smiled and said, "Of course."

Xu Xiaosen chewed the food in big mouthfuls.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, rubbed her eyes, then pointed at Xu Xiaosen and asked, "Do you really want to eat so much? Are you full?"

Xu Xiaosen looked at the food on the table and burst into laughter.

After the meal, Xu Xiaosen and Cheng Xiaoxiao leaned back in their chairs contentedly and talked leisurely.

The deliciousness of the dishes reminded Cheng Xiaoxiao of a gourmet restaurant she visited during her last vacation in Italy.

There, Cheng Xiaoxiao tasted a seafood pasta, and the refreshing flavor seemed to linger in her mouth.

Xu Xiaosen and Cheng Xiaoxiao discussed how to make the same delicious seafood pasta at home, and shared their respective cooking experiences and tips.

Tasting these delicacies not only fills the stomach, but also connects the beautiful memories in the lives of two people.

During the relaxing afternoon, they shared their love for food and their insights into life.

Cheng Xiaoxiao said with satisfaction that this choice did not disappoint her. The food was particularly delicious.

Xu Xiaosen also thought it was a pleasant lunch.

They had a relaxing and enjoyable lunch together, and agreed to go out for meals together more often and have one food adventure after another.
