    Chapter Index

    At that moment a boy in a coffee shop apron placed a cup of coffee on the table with a couple of sticky notes pressed under the coaster.

    Shangguan Ruoxi opened the sticky note and saw that there were various notes written on it, clearly labeling the grinding method of each coffee bean and the precautions to be taken when brewing.

    The handwriting is deft yet strong, yet slightly childish.

    So she called over to the boy who had just brought the coffee, and the boy stepped forward with a slight sense of urgency.

    “The notes on these sticky notes, did your boss ask you to prepare them?” Shangguan Ruoxi asked, holding the sticky notes.

    “No” the boy waved his hands back and forth, still looking uneasy “It’s because I saw that you were buying a bit too much variety, so I added these on purpose. I hope it will be useful to you.”

    He was originally from S province as well, close to Shangguan Ruoxi’s t city, and after his parents divorced and each started a new family, no one was willing to raise him.

    He followed his grandparents to live in h city where his uncle was.

    In the past two years, his grandparents passed away one after another, and his uncle’s family didn’t treat him well and kicked him out of the house, so he had to work and go to school.

    Having just heard that Shangguan Ruoxi was from the S province, he suddenly remembered those happier days when he was a child.

    When you meet someone from another country, you always feel close somehow. So I took it upon myself to write those.

    Shangguan Ruoxi sniffed which then seriously measured up the teenager in front of him, standing at one meter seven three four, about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a fair face and clear features, with a pair of large and bright eyes, and a pair of small dimples on his face!

    The temperament is fresh and slightly boyish. Hair black and thick, slightly with natural curls, at the moment a little messy, clothes washed a little white, but very clean.

    “Sit,” Shangguan Ruoxi said, pointing to the sofa across from her.

    The boy was stunned for a moment, but bowed his head and sat down on the opposite side of the couch.

    “How come you’re not in school? Seeing as you should be school age, today isn’t a vacation.” Shangguan Ruoxi asked.

    “I’m over sixteen’s,” the boy picked up quickly, with a certain amount of lust.

    Looking up and seeing Shangguan Ruoxi’s eyes that seemed to see through everything, he added in a more whispered voice, “It’s none of the boss’s business, it’s me who wanted to earn money so I misrepresented my age to the boss.”

    “Can you not tell your boss about this, I, I can help you hide Id into the darknet.” The boy’s voice got lower and lower.

    “I didn’t mean to peek, I just overheard the post you were browsing when I was delivering coffee.” The boy spoke nervously and very quickly.

    Shangguan Ruoxi looked at him with some surprise, and the boy, seemingly afraid that she wouldn’t believe him, added, “It’s true, just give me a computer.

    I’m working part time now just to save up for a computer, and with a computer I can …..” The boy didn’t continue.

    Shangguan Ruoxi, however, understood. A computer genius who could easily access the darknet must have wanted to take on a task that wasn’t so innocent.

    That’s not even a future hacker big shot, but it’s a shame it’s going to be the end of the world soon.

    She had the urge to pull the kid into her camp, and her need for a computer genius right now was one of them.

    The two of them were pack animals and still needed to travel in pairs even in the end times.

    “So your real age is?” Shangguan Ruoxi asked with a smile.

    The boy sniffed and pulled out his ID card from his pocket, handing it to Shangguan Ruoxi, who took it and glanced at it, oh ho, just turned fourteen.
