Chapter 61 Schoolgirl's Discussion

There was anuproar on the Internet, but in reality, Yang Yi was calm and at ease. He didnteven go to the book review area at all.

Since seeingsome of the reviews that slander him last time, Yang Yi felt that there was noneed to visit it again. He writes his books and recommends his favorite worksto the world. Those who like it stay, while those who dont like it, what canhe say about it?

The coffeeshop is still open every day. At ten o'clock in the morning, the sign is put up.If there are no customers, Yang Yi will read books and listen to songs.

No, thereare still a few customers today!

Clingcling cling. The wind chimes at the door broke the tranquility of theshop - Even though Yang Yi was still playing music, lets call the atmosphere withoutdisturbance tranquility!

Yang Yi putaway his book and stood up from the bar.

The customerswere four adolescent schoolgirls, holding hands and talking in pairs. It looksa bit like the sisters in a dormitory going out to play together.

When theysaw Yang Yi standing behind the bar, they were actually a little scared. Afterall, Yang Yi didnt like to take the initiative to greet customers, and lookedlike he was smiling unpleasantly.

Fortunately,a girl with short hair was quite bold. She took the initiative to come forwardand asked, Boss, what kind of coffee do you have here? Could you show methe menu?

Yang Yiactually has a headache about this. Almost every guest came to him to ask for amenu, but Yang Yi didn't have the mood to print a stack of menus! Whats more,the coffee he sells is not Starbucks-style coffee. What he sells on daily basisdepends entirely on what coffee beans are in his jar.

Itsall written here. Yang Yi pointed to the small whiteboard on the wallbehind him, on which he wrote todays menu with a marker.

Mocha,30 yuan a cup; Robusta, 40 yuan a cup; Santos, 50 yuan a cup Before theycould finish reading it, the several girls all cried out in a low voice, Howexpensive!

Yang Yi wasa little speechless, but he explained patiently: All my coffee is allground from coffee beans, pure handmade.

Its normalto be expensive. Yang Yi felt that his price was too low. A better coffee shopsells instant coffee for ten yuan. He didnt expect the shop to make money, sohe didnt increase the price on the basis of recovering the cost at all.

Itsso expensive, or? Theres a coffee shop at the east gate. Its only abouttwenty yuan a cup! A girl whispered.

Yang Yi was actuallymad and amused that he closed his mouth.

That kind ofcoffee shop, it must be instant coffee with water. How can it be compared tohis? Well, if they dont want to drink it, Yang Yi wont force them.

What his StreetCorner is selling is the atmosphere. If they will not give it a taste, theymost probably will not feel it.

But the girlwith short hair just now said, Come on, how many times have we been tothat shop? Today, we agreed to experience life. Let's just try it!

So, they endedup staying. In addition to the girl with short hair, there was a girl whoseemed to have a good family background. Out of curiosity, they ordered Santosand Robusta respectively, while the other two girls ordered the cheapest mocha.

After theyhad ordered, they sat down near the window of the garden and chatted again.

Because YangYi practiced internal strength, he could hear their conversation from afar.Originally, Yang Yi didn't want to eavesdrop, but inadvertently heard thattheir topic seemed to be himself, so Yang Yi p.r.i.c.ked his ears up and listenedto a few words.

The shopkeeperuncle looks very handsome.

Sayswho? I think hes fierce!

I alsothink hes fierce. Look at his eyes, I felt like hes going to eatpeople!

Aren'tyou exaggerating? I think the shopkeeper uncle just dont like to talk verymuch.

Youguys, you definitely thought that even though you are the flowers of theOrchestra Department, the others didn't give you discounts, so you're making maliciousguesses, hee hee!

That'snot true. Little Yin, tell me, are the eyes of the shopkeeper uncle very cold?

These teenagegirls!

Yang Yishook his head helplessly, calm his mind and concentrated on making coffee.

But he alsomuttered a little. Havent I integrated into the current environment? Do Istill have a murderous look in my eyes? This is not good. You will isolateyourself from society.

Yang Yisuddenly remembered that some time ago, when Hu Da and Qiang Zi came over, theywore gla.s.ses, and suddenly had an idea in mind.

It took YangYi some effort to make two mochas, one Santos and one Robusta. He then took thesugar cube jar and powdered sugar jar that he bought these past days and servedthem together.

It justhappened that they were discussing the music playing in Yang Yis shop.

Pleasetake your time. Yang Yi likes to reduce his presence, so after servingthe coffees, he left quietly.

But his earsstill heard the schoolgirls discussion.

I usedto be a big fan of Mo Fei, and I thought her song "Feel Like Strangers" was supernice to listen to. It was a must at KTV. But no one knows why, she disappearedfor several years, which broke my heart!

Iheard that she didnt listen to the arrangement of her Agency and was forcedout.

Whoknows, anyway, she hasn't sung for several years, and now I hear that she'smaking a comeback. Does she think the entertainment industry is still the sameas it used to be? Come and go as one like?"

DidntLi Manman say in an interview some time ago? A girl covered her mouth andsaid with a smile, "'Have you considered my feelings when you call her the queenof songs? Li Manman is really frank and lovely!

Initially,Li Manman was only a 3rd - 4th tier singer! Now Li Manmans influence is noweaker than Mo Fei. She is qualified to say that.

but I don'tthink Li Manman can sing as well as Mo Fei. Although its not bad, but I thinkshe was chosen as a queen of songs purely because of her high popularity,beautiful appearance, and wins favors by grandstanding in front of the media. MoFei wouldnt be like this. Her success came from a step-by-step process, verysteady!"

Thisargument was immediately refuted.

Jiajia,dont be so pure. Mo Fei was successful due to who knows how many people wererunning behind her. Havent you heard? Her mother used to be a singer. She certainlygrew up with a lot of resources and a golden key in her hand. Do you still saythat she relied on her own efforts? (TN: Golden Key a good method tosolve difficult problems.)

Mo Feiis on a decline now. I read a report that said that she is now taking businessperformances, but she comes and goes singing her old songs. I've heard of hernew songs that was released on the Internet. The songs are very ordinary andcant catch on.

Ithink so, too. Isnt it revealed that many of her return alb.u.ms are old songs?I dont want an alb.u.m like thats."

Mo Feihad a scandal before! Teacher Liu s.h.i.+fang of Shanghai Music Academy, we allplayed his River Children, scolded Mo Fei, saying that she had norespect for her teachers and was ungrateful.

Ah? I didn'texpect her to be such a person! The girl with short hair named Jiajia calledout, Forget it. I dont want to be her fan anymore!

Yang Yi wasbehind the bar, with his back turned, but his expression was somewhat serious.

It seems that Mo Feis situation is not very good!
