King of Assassins-Chapter 735 - 544 Uncertain_2
However, this might not necessarily be the same universe.
Gao Xuan walked out of the dormitory. The campus was very quiet on Sundays, especially the teachers' dormitory, which was almost silent.
There were quite a few young teachers living in the dormitory, but most of them went out to play on Sundays. Even if they stayed in their rooms, they were seldom noisy.
In the distance, a large group of middle school students was playing basketball at the school's outdoor stadium. Though the distance was far, the faint noise was not annoying.
Gao Xuan found his bicycle and rode out of the side gate of the school.
The area around the school was always bustling: people selling stationery, snacks, flowers, and so forth. Some illegal internet cafés were hidden among the buildings.
In the past, Gao Xuan often spent the weekends playing games overnight in an internet café. As a single guy without relatives or money, the internet was a relatively cheap form of entertainment.
Gao Xuan looked around with interest at everything. Even though he had experienced these things in the Nine-Revolutions Divine Cicada World, returning to the ordinary world still gave him a lot of feelings.
Moreover, after all, worlds are different. His identity and roles were also different, and Gao Xuan's feelings were different as well.
The noisy and somewhat messy streets were filled with the smell of daily life. It was truly the smell of daily life because he saw someone roasting sweet potatoes in a metal bucket...
The aroma of the sweet potato was quite tempting, and even Gao Xuan, who had taken a nap all afternoon, felt a bit hungry.
He thought for a moment and still bought a roasted sweet potato, standing by the roadside, biting into it.
The sweet potato smelled nice, but the taste was just average.
Because of the blind date, Gao Xuan also bought a bottle of water to rinse his mouth and even bought some gum.
His sister made such an effort to introduce him to someone, regardless of the outcome, basic manners were necessary.
Going over with a mouth full of sweet potato flavor would be too embarrassing for his sister.
Calculating the time, Gao Xuan still had time, so he leisurely cycled along the street. At five twenty-five, he arrived at a coffee shop.
This Cat Paw Coffee Shop had an adorable cat's paw on the window, with three to five kittens lazily lying inside.
Gao Xuan didn't recognize the breeds, but they all looked fluffy and quite cute.
This body of his had never been to a coffee shop, and as someone who'd been single since birth, he didn't have this need either.
However, he had heard of the Cat Paw Coffee Shop. After all, female teachers liked this kind of small bourgeois taste.
It was said that all the beans in this coffee shop were imported, ground well, and tasted quite good.
Gao Xuan didn't have any knowledge of coffee; he couldn't tell the difference between instant and hand-ground.
If it were the former him, he would feel a bit intimidated coming to this kind of place. Now, it was different.
Gao Xuan, regardless of what he knew, had seen all sorts of situations. If he dared to kill a god, a little blind date was nothing to be afraid of. Not knowing how to drink coffee wasn't a problem in his eyes. There were many things he didn't know, but that didn't stop him from dominating the Star River Cosmos.
The coffee shop was very small, with just seven or eight tables, and a middle-aged woman sitting behind the counter.
Seeing Gao Xuan come in, the middle-aged woman nodded slightly but didn't speak to greet him.
Seeing her expression, Gao Xuan had to take the initiative to ask, "What do you have to drink?"
The middle-aged woman smiled, "What would you like? We have new Brazilian coffee beans, roasted and ground here."
Before the woman could finish, Gao Xuan waved his hand and said, "I don't drink coffee. Do you have juice?"
The middle-aged woman glanced at Gao Xuan; people coming to her shop usually came for the coffee. Few came specifically for juice.
"Kumquat Lemon, perhaps? It's refreshing and sweet."
"Alright."
Gao Xuan scanned his phone to pay and found a seat by the door to sit down.
The weather wasn't too cold or too hot. The afternoon sun was slightly hazy, and sitting in a bamboo chair drinking juice, everything seemed very leisurely.
Gao Xuan drank the juice, looking around at the surrounding shops and the pedestrians on the street, feeling quite good. It was just that the thirty-five for a cup of juice seemed a bit expensive.
The blind date was scheduled for five-thirty. When it got to five-forty, Gao Xuan saw a dark blue Porsche Panamera pull up in front of the café.
There was no designated parking space here, and the cars usually parked casually by the roadside. But this Panamera parked pretty smoothly.
Seeing the Panamera skillfully park between two cars, Gao Xuan knew the person was an experienced driver.
Among a fleet of domestic and Japanese cars, the shiny paint of the Porsche Panamera outshone all others. Not to mention the stunning body lines that were even more dazzling.
The car hadn't even come to a complete stop when it already drew quite a few gazes. Even those who didn't recognize the Porsche Panamera could tell the car was expensive.
Gao Xuan didn't actually recognize it either, but he had a vague memory of such a car. With the keen attribute of his Divine Soul, he wouldn't forget anything he'd seen or heard.
The car door opened, and a young beauty stepped out.
Gao Xuan compared her to the photo. It was indeed the blind date, Su Rong. It was rare for someone who could drive a Panamera and look so beautiful to arrange a blind date.
He wondered where his sister found her. Didn't she consider her brother's conditions...
Gao Xuan took what came his way. Before he found a way out, he didn't need to struggle, he just followed the life path of this body.
Meeting a beauty naturally was good, but dealing with a beauty of this level would not be easy.
Gao Xuan didn't mind any of it; he took a few steps forward and greeted her, "Su Rong?"
"It's me, and you must be Gao Xuan. Hello."
Su Rong took off her sunglasses and extended her hand, and Gao Xuan lightly shook her soft hand.
With her sunglasses off, Su Rong's small face was fully revealed. She had a typical oval face, with a slightly pointed yet naturally smooth chin.
Her almond eyes were large and bright, her nose was dainty, and her lips were delicately defined. By her looks, she was indeed a stunning beauty.
She was about 1.7 meters tall, wearing a short white T-shirt, denim shorts, and flat hemp-woven sandals. Her delicate toes were exposed.
Just looking at her feet, Gao Xuan could tell this beauty led a prosperous life, definitely not from an ordinary social class.
No matter how much an ordinary woman maintains herself, there would be various issues with her feet. Su Rong's feet were better maintained than most women's faces.
Gao Xuan invited Su Rong to sit down, "What would you like to drink?"
Su Rong smiled slightly, "Café latte."
Gao Xuan went to pay, one hundred and thirty for a cup...
When the coffee came, Su Rong tasted it and then sighed satisfied, "Sister Lian's coffee is so rich and fragrant."
She enthusiastically recommended it to Gao Xuan, "You should try a cup, Sister Lian is very skillful. Although there are many coffee shops in the city, none are as authentic as here."
"I don't know coffee. Juice will do." Gao Xuan was candid about it; he didn't see a need to pretend to be refined.
Su Rong was slightly surprised. In this day and age, it was rare for young people to so openly admit their ignorance. Moreover, Gao Xuan did it calmly and composedly.
Gao Xuan was plain-looking and had a barely decent physique. But such a statement gave him a touch of dignity.
She thought for a moment and smiled, "After all, coffee is foreign. Many people don't like the sour taste…"
Talking about coffee, Su Rong was quite interested. Of course, this was also their first meeting, and they were very different from each other.
Talking about coffee was a decent topic.
Gao Xuan quietly listened to Su Rong speaking, occasionally nodding politely in agreement.
After Su Rong finished speaking, Gao Xuan said, "Hearing you talk about it, I'm quite interested in coffee now."
Su Rong encouraged him, "You should try it. For those who love the taste of coffee, it's the ultimate beverage…"
The two of them chatted for about twenty minutes. Seeing that it was getting late, Gao Xuan, out of courtesy, asked, "Are you free this evening? I could treat you to dinner."
Su Rong politely declined, "Sorry, I have plans with someone else tonight. Maybe next time."
"Alright, then, I'll be going."
Gao Xuan stood up, nodded at Su Rong, "It was nice meeting you. We'll meet again if there's a chance."
He waved to Su Rong and rode off on his bicycle.
After Gao Xuan left, a middle-aged woman came out from inside the coffee shop. She bowed slightly to Su Rong, "Miss, what did you think?"
"Quite a nice person."
Su Rong actually had a good impression of Gao Xuan.
As a 26-year-old youngster, he had no higher education, no special abilities, and not a powerful background. Yet, he neither talked boastfully nor was he shy and reserved. Throughout, he remained frank and natural.
It was like dealing with an old friend; everything was relaxed and casual, yet maintained enough propriety. This was indeed rare.
Su Rong asked the middle-aged woman, "Sister Yu, what do you think?"
"An honest person."
Sister Yu thought for a moment and said, "I think he is quite suitable."
She paused and added, "His family background is clean, his character is upright and honest, and he's easy to manage…"
Su Rong frowned slightly. Was this young man really easy to manage? She always felt that Gao Xuan had a sort of inherent self-confidence...
