Ming Shaoyan wanted to say you should stop your efforts.

It is not easy to brew hand-ground coffee and it is even harder to brew a cup of delicious hand-ground coffee.

Warming the cup, grinding the beans, warming the pot, pressure cooking, and brewing – each step required technique and skill. The grind size of the coffee beans, the quantity of coffee beans, control over the water temperature during pressure cooking, and control over the water temperature during brewing are all important factors that affect the taste of the coffee.

This demanded sufficient knowledge about coffee and sufficient familiarity with the process. Therefore, even though Aung Cheng very earnestly experimented, she failed to successfully brew a cup of very good Blue Mountain coffee, not to mention Tang Tang.

First, this variety of Blue Mountain coffee really is not something an ordinary family could afford. Moreover, in accordance with Tang Tang’s capabilities, her ability to brew coffee is at most around the level of adding water to instant coffee.  

Ming Shaoyan did not have any expectations. Ming Shaoyan also did not plan to make his tongue suffer. Thus, he decisively refused.

“I won’t drink it,” Ming Shaoyan said. “You can drink it yourself.”

Tang Tang glanced at the coffee, then glanced at Ming Shaoyan and raised a finger, “Just try it once.”

Ming Shaoyan: Why do you insist on forcing me to taste instant coffee? Can’t you be a little more self-aware?

Aunt Cheng squeezed out of the kitchen and cheerfully urged Ming Shaoyan, “Miss got up first thing in the morning, saying that you drank last night so you must be in poor spirits the next day. She has been busy all morning brewing this cup. I can smell the familiar aroma. Try it, quick.”

Ming Shaoyan: …

Forget it, one sip won’t kill him. 

He sat in front of the table and lifted the cup. His eyes fell on the cup of coffee.

The color unexpectedly looked quite good? [Please read this on ClearSpringsTL. com]

He pursed his lips and tried a little. The familiar rich sweetness of Blue Mountain coffee instantly eroded the aftertaste of alcohol from his taste buds. It was slightly more bitter that what he usually drank. But, because he had alcohol yesterday, this bitterness was just right.

Ming Shaoyan took another sip. From the corner of his eyes, he noticed Tang Tang staring at him with a scorching gaze. He suddenly felt it was a little blinding.  

Thus, his action in drinking coffee became even slower.

He absolutely cannot let this silly girl find out he was very satisfied with the coffee. [TN: How can the ML be so petty … and cute?]

So he finished the coffee in a slow and perfunctory manner. After he finished, he opened his precious mouth and gifted Tang Tang two words. 

“Not bad1ClearSpringsTL.com: Better translation would be “passable,” but “not bad” fits the two words criteria lol.”

Tang Tang picked up the completely emptied cup and blinked. This was only considered passable?

That can’t be, ah!

Ming Shaoyan in the novel liked Blue Mountain coffee. This was a detail that she remembered all along because Tang Tang herself really liked coffee and she was also very fond of Blue Mountain coffee.

Because she was frequently with the production team, she could not manage to go to a coffee shop. As such, Tang Tang simply learned to brew her own coffee. Later, when she had leisure time, she even went to Nairobi, Kenya to learn how to professionally brew coffee.

She also had high requirements for coffee, so her craftsmanship was quite good. Last night, she asked Aunt Cheng what time Ming Shaoyan gets up. After she knew the time, she specifically got up early this morning to brew a cup of coffee.   

She made a cup for herself first and was very satisfied with it. After that, she made another cup for Ming Shaoyan that was slightly more bitter than the one she made for herself.

As a result, Ming Shaoyan actually thought it was merely passable?

Tang Tang was dumbfounded.

Aunt Cheng received the coffee cup from Tang Tang’s hands and glanced at Ming Shaoyan with a beaming smile. “Passable, yet you still drank all of it.”

“It’s not good to reject a kind gesture.” Ming Shaoyan shot a glance at Tang Tang before he turned and left.

Aunt Cheng clucked her tongue. “The older they get the more ungainly they get.” After she finished ridiculing him, she slyly said next to Tang Tang’s ear, “When I made coffee for him before, he would put it down after taking only one sip.”

Tang Tang blinked and turned to look at Ming Shaoyan, who has already walked very far away. 

In her heart, Ming Shaoyan’s image as a cold and callous tyrant gradually collapsed, changing to someone who is awkward and 闷骚2ClearSpringsTL.com  闷骚 mensao – someone outwardly cold but inwardly passionate, a bit like a kuudere??.

After Ming Shaoyan left, Tang Tang took her time eating breakfast, did some yoga, and then brushed Weibo for a while.

The nine girls who debuted from the previous talent competition was officially announced today. In the end, when the comments were opened, eight out of the top ten comments were unrelated to those nine girls.

They were all scolding Tang Tang.

[Fortunately, a certain someone was not included.]

[It is really refreshing without Tang Tang.] 

What the heck? Nowadays, people can bring up your name without paying for it?3ClearSpringsTL – more literal translation is to have someone perform on stage but don’t pay his/her appearance fee Do you still have any basic decency?

On one hand, Tang Tang ridiculed them while, on the other hand, she admired the netizens creative methods of scolding people. It was obviously the other nine people who debuted, but in the end, only a total of three of the hot topics were related to the nine people who debuted. Whereas, for better or worse, four of the hot searches were related to Tang Tang.

After browsing for a while, the hot search did not decrease. Contrary to expectations, an additional hot search came out. Not long after, another hot search came out.
