[Hope Coffee House system starts binding]

On feeling a burning and tingling sensation on his left wrist, Wu Liang started sweating, and quickly woke up from his state of half-consciousness. He glanced at his left wrist.

[Hope Coffee House system is successfully bound]

The familiar voice sounded in the ear again, Wu Liang's left wrist no longer stung, and a cloud-like mark exuding a faint golden light appeared there.

Wu Liang stretched out his right hand and stroked the mark on his left wrist gently. Few lines with legible words appeared in his mind:

[The seventh owner of Hope Coffee House]: Wu Liang

[Life value]: 17 days lingering

[Task]: Not a.s.signed

[Material]: None

[Hope currency]: 0

[Mall]: Not open yet

Seeing that the mall was not open for the time being, Wu Liang asked: “Will I open the mall when I have Hope?”

“Yes,” He got a reply in a familiar system prompt.

“How do I find and help desperate people?”

“People below -90% Hope will be drawn here unknowingly.”

“So this coffee house doesn't exist in the real world? Then how do I get in and out?” Wu Liang wondered.

“As the owner of Hope Cafe, all you need to do is enter or leave.”

Wu Liang's heart trembled for a split second, he was already standing in the lake park that he had fallen into last night.

At this time, the morning light was dim, and it was twilight.

The deep red morning sun seemed to have infinite power, jumping up from the horizon, gradually expelling the night, and lighting up the whole world.

In the cold breeze, Wu Liang's long eyelashes trembled slightly, staring directly at the bright sun without blinking.

Moved by the sunlight, the teenager's eyes were extremely bright, and tears were faintly visible in his eyes.

His eyes carried endless hope, and the young man under the sun seemed to be s.h.i.+ning all over.

One day, a month ago, the teenager was alone in the hospital, and after receiving the diagnosis of advanced pancreatic cancer, he held back his tears and kept repeating two empty sentences to himself.

‘It's okay, maybe the doctor will appear suddenly, apologize and tell him that the report was wrong, and he's fine.

Don't worry, maybe your pancreatic cancer is not serious. After the operation, you will get better soon.'

Until the faded white sheet was soaked with sweat from the palm of his hand, the teenager waited for the sentence he was expecting. ‘It's all right, don't worry.'

The doctor held the diagnosis book, with deep pity in his eyes, and softly told him that the current situation could no longer be operated on, that only conservative medical treatment was available …

The boy braced himself firmly, squeezed out a dry smile at the doctor, and asked about the time he had left.

Less than two months.

In the last few days, it would start hurting even more.

Wu Liang mused silently for a while and returned to the coffee shop.

As long as he continued to help desperate people regain hope, he could live again without being worried about any illness or injury.

Wu Liang wanted to live well too.

After his mind completely relaxed, a strong sense of hunger came, accompanied by the dull pain in his upper abdomen.

Wu Liang rubbed his growling belly, got up and walked to the counter. He made a cup of latte for himself and took out a large plate filled with various pastries from the gla.s.s counter.

Done with having breakfast, Wu Liang looked carefully at the coffee shop. After all, here was where he would live and work.

Although the coffee shop was small, it had all the basic furniture and appliances, the back kitchen was clean and tidy, the staff lounge s.p.a.cious and bright and the decoration was very warm.

Wu Liang lay on the soft big bed and yawned comfortably, thinking whether to make up for his sleep first, after all, it was only 5:30 in the morning at this time, and those who wanted to come to despair should not appear at this time.

Just then, the door opened, and a man's low voice came: “Anyone there?”

Someone had turned up.

Wu Liang quickly got up and walked to the room with a warm smile.

A man around 27 or 28 years old was standing in front of the counter. He was handsome, with a fair complexion and a slight black stubble. A thick cold aura surrounded him, eyes full of sorrow.

The moment he saw the man, Wu Liang's mind received the task sent by the Hope Coffee House.

[Novice task] Help Chen Wei regain hope. (The Hope value should become more than 60%)

Chen Wei's current status:

Hope: -96%

Warm reminder: When the hope value reaches -100%, people will have a suicidal behavior, which will lead to an irreparable tragedy.

This guy named Chen Wei … is too devoid of hope …

This novice task was a bit too troublesome …

Wu Liang's heart was speechless but his face had a warm smile.

After seeing Wu Liang with a smile, the man barely lifted the corner of his mouth to reveal a dry smile, and said in a low voice, “A gla.s.s of Americano … Iced Americano.”

Wu Liang looked at Chen Wei and said amicably, “Okay, just sit down and wait a bit.”

“Reminder: A cup of warm sea salt caramel Mocha can ease people's despair, make them relax and speak their minds.” The familiar system prompt sounded in Wu Liang's ear.

Sea salt caramel mocha? How to make it?

Wu Liang was a little hesitant. The latte was basically just pouring milk into the coffee. It was not difficult to make it by yourself, but the sea salt caramel mocha was not that easy. If he made a cup of “death coffee”, and Chen Wei drank it…. It's not good for the despair value to explode directly …

At this moment, Wu Liang's mind rang with the familiar prompt again: “You have a barista skills training course to be viewed.”

Wu Liang: “…”

Three minutes later, Wu Liang held a cup of warm sea salt caramel Mocha and handed it to Chen Wei, and laughed warmly: “It's cold in the morning, drinking iced Americano will give a stomachache, it's better to warm up with a cup of sea salt caramel Mocha.”

Chen Wei froze, nodded and took the coffee, pursed his lips and said, “Thank you.”

Grat.i.tude from Chen Wei: +5

A reminder appeared in Wu Liang's mind.

Wu Liang quickly checked to see if there was any change in the Hope currency.

[Hope Coin]: 50

Really! The so-called specific emotion referred to the grat.i.tude of the desperate person, and 5 points of grat.i.tude value could be exchanged for 50 hope coins!

This also meant that 1 point of appreciation value was 10 hope coins!

Wu Liang quickly checked Chen Wei's current status and saw that the value was still -96%, it had not changed.

If he was not afraid of his over-enthusiasm stimulating Chen Wei, and what kind of irreparable consequences may occur, Wu Liang would really like to give Chen Wei a full set of services and earn him a thousand and eight hundred coins of Hope.

After receiving the coffee, Chen Wei didn't drink it. He just held the cup with both hands and sat down silently, thinking deeply.

Wu Liang had to pretend to wipe the counter, observing Chen Wei's every move in secret and prayed that the temporary barista training he had just completed in a minute was effective.

A short while ago, just when Wu Liang was about to wipe off the paint on the counter, Chen Wei finally took a sip of the coffee in his hand and then looked up at Wu Liang.

Wu Liang's heart jumped to his throat, and he blinked his eyes quickly, trying to see Chen Wei's expression.

But he missed his chance.

Chen Wei then lowered his head and continued to drink the coffee in his hand.

Grat.i.tude from Chen Wei: +1, +1, +1, +1, +1 …

Seeing the continuous appreciation from Chen Wei, Wu Liang finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the coffee he made was delicious!

After two minutes, Chen Wei drank the whole coffee, and he seemed slightly more energetic.

Wu Liang quickly checked his Hope coins in his mind, and it had risen to 120!

What made Wu Liang even more surprised was that after drinking this cup of sea salt caramel Mocha named by the Hope Coffee House, Chen Wei's hope value had picked up and has become -92%!

This sea salt caramel Mocha is too amazing!

Wu Liang giggled in his heart, walked towards Chen Wei with a smile, and hesitated, wondering whether to give a free cup to Chen Wei or add a piece of pastry.

Just when Wu Liang walked in front of Chen Wei and was about to speak, he heard Chen Wei's low-pitched words: “My girlfriend…I did everything for her, but she is going to get engaged to someone else today. “
