Su Yang’s eyelids twitched as his eyes widened. “...Ma—...What did you say?”
“Mah-reh~ piu~~”
“Piu?” Su Yang was completely baffled. He was fluent in any language, but he had no idea what that meant.
“Did Master learn it?”
“Repeating it isn’t hard, but what does it mean?”
“It’s a magic spell. Roughly, it makes food taste delicious. After casting it, coffee becomes even more enjoyable~”
“Really? Are there any other spells besides this one?”
Natsuki nodded. “There are more~”
“Go ahead, let me hear them.”
“Okay, Master. I can fulfill any request you have.”
“Moe Q Moe Q-chan~” Natsuki chanted, tilting her head and making a heart gesture with a bright smile toward Su Yang.
“Whoa... that one’s intense. Any others?” Su Yang asked with a grin.
“There’s more.”
“Moe-ri Moe-ri~ Kyu!”
Natsuki was about to chant a few more, but Su Yang raised his hand to stop her. “OK, OK! That’s enough. Stop for now.”
“Alright, Master. Which one do you like?”
“Any is fine. Let’s go with the second one.”
“Okay, then let’s cast the spell together to make the coffee super delicious! Please follow me, Master. Say it to the coffee and make a heart gesture at the same time.”
“Sure.”
“Here we go. Moe Q Moe Q-chan~” Natsuki called out, reaching out to make a heart gesture with Su Yang.
Su Yang cooperated perfectly, saying the line and forming half a heart with his hand, pressing it against Natsuki’s.
“Master, you’re amazing!” Natsuki immediately clapped in delight.
“Master, you can now enjoy your delicious coffee~”
“Good.” Su Yang smiled and reached for it.
But Natsuki stopped him again.
“What now?”
“I forgot something super important.”
“What is it?”
“I should be the one feeding Master,” Natsuki said, cupping the coffee cup with both hands and bringing it to Su Yang’s lips.
“Master, please open wide~”
“Damn, your service here is really something.” Su Yang gave a thumbs-up in praise, then took a sip.
“Is it good, Master?”
“Good, good.”
“Our magic worked!” Natsuki set the coffee down, picked up a menu from the table, and looked at Su Yang. “Master, besides coffee, would you like to order any other treats?”
Seeing this, Su Yang thought to himself, ‘Here we go. She’s still pushing other stuff after all.’
“Open it up and let me see what you’ve got.”
“Of course~” Natsuki beamed as she flipped open the pink menu and leaned close to Su Yang to introduce each item.
This place was called a coffee shop, but besides coffee, it also had plenty of other drinks, like cocktails, western liquor, local island spirits, and a range of snacks.
Su Yang couldn’t eat anything right now, but he could order more drinks.
After a look, he ordered a cocktail and a whiskey.
“OK, that’s all.”
“Alright, Master!!” Natsuki said, picking up an old-fashioned red phone nearby.
She pressed a button to connect to the front counter, then ordered the two drinks he’d just requested remotely.
After putting the phone back, she spoke cheerfully again. “Master, while we wait, let’s play some games~”
“What kind of game?”
“One moment, please~” Natsuki stood up, walked to the other side, grabbed a small pad of sticky notes, a pen, and some assorted otaku-like props that Su Yang didn’t recognize, then came back and sat down.
With Natsuki’s help, they started playing some simple games.
It was boring, but this was typical of a maid café’s charm.
About ten minutes later, another staff member in a maid outfit brought two drinks to Su Yang’s table.
After setting them down, she pulled the curtain closed and left.
While playing the game, Natsuki tore off a sheet of sticky note paper and scribbled something on it.
Then, mid-game, she slipped the paper into Su Yang’s hand.
Su Yang was startled and looked at Natsuki. She urgently blinked at him. “Su-san, look at it later. There’s a camera above us—it’s not convenient now.”
“Sokka.”
After that, they continued playing some mundane games.
Then they cast the spell on the two drinks as well. About an hour later, the coffee and all the alcohol were finished.
Natsuki sat close to Su Yang, chatted with him, and basically gave him plenty of emotional attention. She never seemed tired—it was clear she was genuinely enjoying herself.
After chatting for a while, Su Yang asked, “Natsuki, is there a restroom upstairs?”
“Yes, Master. Do you need to use the restroom?”
“Yeah, I need to go.”
“Okay, I’ll take you there.”
They both stood up and headed out.
Natsuki led the way, weaving through the place to reach the restroom.
“It’s right here. Master, go ahead.”
“Okay, thanks.”
“You’re welcome~”
Su Yang entered the men’s room, pulled out the note Natsuki had given him, and looked at it.
It read:
——Su-san, you’re so handsome. I’m totally charmed. Here’s my phone number. Could we add each other later? We can be friends in private~
Below the sentence was a string of digits.
After reading it, Su Yang smiled to himself. ‘Who said island girls are reserved?’
—System, show me Natsuki’s full info.
[Nakajima Natsuki, Age: 20]
[Height: 162cm]
[Weight: 55kg]
[Looks: 85]
[Figure: 96]
[Romantic partners: 1, Single]
[Battles fought: 1]
[Traits: Super cute, cheerful and lively, honest and straightforward personality, appearance-focused]
—Huh, not bad stats.
[Do you wish to bind?]
—No binding. But I can note down the number.
After closing the virtual screen, Su Yang took out his phone, saved the number, then used the restroom and walked out.
As soon as he stepped out, he saw Natsuki waiting by the door.
“Dude? You didn’t have to wait for me. You could’ve gone back first.”
“It’s fine, Master~ As long as you’re in the store, I’ll be with you the whole time.”
“Alright then.” Su Yang didn’t argue, washed his hands, and followed Natsuki back to the seat.
Once seated again, Su Yang said with a smile, “I’ve saved your number.”
Hearing this, Natsuki bit her lip shyly and said, “Okay, Master.”
‘Damn, that act is way too alluring. No wonder this maid café is so popular. It’s really something.’
Through their continued chat, Natsuki learned that Su Yang was Chinese. Upon finding this out, she happily said, “Su-san, so you’re Chinese? Your island language is so good that I thought you were from here all along.”
“No, I’m not.”
Natsuki nodded. “Speaking of China, I might be going on a trip there in a few days with my family~”
“Oh? You’re planning to go to China?”
“Yeah, my parents love China. They’ve been planning it for a long time, and this time they’re bringing me and my little sister. It’ll be in about three or four days, and I have a break from work too.”
“You have a little sister?” Su Yang laughed.
“Yes, she’s one year younger than me.”
“So, where are you planning to visit in China?”
“I’m not really sure about the specifics. My parents are making the itinerary, but probably places like the capital and Shanghai.”
Su Yang nodded. “Alright, I’ve got your number saved. Let’s add each other on social media later. If you end up going to Shanghai, you can contact me.”
“Sure thing, Su-san. Do you live in Shanghai?”
“I don’t actually live there, but I visit often.”
“Okay~ If I go, I’ll definitely look you up.”
“Sounds good.”
They chatted for another half hour or so, until Su Yang’s phone buzzed with a message from the group chat.
Zhuang Mengli: @everyone, when are we heading out?
Lu Yun: About time, I think.
Su Qingci: Let’s go now.
Pan Ning: Fine by me. We’ve done all the services worth experiencing, and just chatting now isn’t that interesting.
Zhuang Mengli: Alright, meet in the lobby on the first floor.
Seeing the messages, Su Yang stood up. “Natsuki, we’re about to head out.”
“You’re leaving, Su-san?”
“Yeah. Remember to hit me up when you’re in China.” Su Yang mimed a phone call gesture.
“Of course. If I go, I’ll definitely contact you.”
“Great. Oh, and by the way, I’m really satisfied with your service today.” He pulled a few large bills from his bag and handed them to Natsuki.
“Here, this is for you as a tip.”
Seeing five or six ten-thousand-yen notes, Natsuki froze for a moment, then quickly waved her hands. “That’s way too much, Su-san. Tips aren’t supposed to be this generous.”
“Just take it. I don’t know what others give, but this is what I’m giving. Go on.” Su Yang pressed the cash into her hand.
Natsuki didn’t refuse further. Even though she was young, she recognized the quality of his outfit, his bag, and the watch on his wrist. His appearance alone made it clear he was well-off, so she accepted the tip.
She escorted him to the lobby, smiling as she said goodbye.
Su Yang turned, nodded, and walked out of the shop with his friends.
It was 10:20 PM. Forty minutes later, they were back at Little Gold Mountain Hotel.
Everyone was tired after a full day of fun, so they called it quits and headed to their rooms.
In his room, Su Yang took a shower, climbed into bed, and pulled out his phone. He sent Natsuki a message, and they added each other on INS.
If she came to China before he left for Europe, he could show her around.
Just as he was about to switch to Douyin to browse, Winnie’s and Jiali’s WeChat messages came through, right on time.
