When Ling Tianya saw that the cafe retained most if its original decor, she hugged the female owner happily. “Sister Qin, the school is having their winter break and most of the coffee places are closed. I thought that you would be closed for sure as well. I was just trying my luck! Thank goodness you’re still open!”
The female owner smiled and her eyes sparkled. “I was going to close it for the holidays as well, but someone contacted me and asked me to stay open.”
Following the owner’s gaze, Ling Tianya looked over at Ruan Zeyan who was standing by the door. He was just standing there, and Ling Tianya couldn’t help but think about when they had first met.
He was in a hurry that day. He had walked in quickly and had ordered a cup of cappuccino from her at the bar.
She had just started working there, and she wasn’t good at latte art yet. She spent a long time making the coffee for him.
She had alone in the cafe then because the boss had gone to the washroom. Ling Tianya had wanted to ask him if he wanted to change his order or wait for the female owner to return.
Instead, he was relaxed and told her to take her time.
Ling Tianya carefully made a cup of cappuccino for him. It was the first time she had managed to draw a heart shape in the coffee.
The man took the coffee from her and stood at the bar as he started sipping on his drink slowly. Ling Tianya went on to do her own things and she worked on trying to memorize the text from her English cla.s.s from time to time.
Ruan Zeyan had left not after long. Before he took his leave, he had said to her, “Your coffee tastes very good.”
It was the first time they met and the first time she made latte art, so it was a meaningful day for Ling Tianya.
Ling Tianya was pulled back to the present, and she smiled as she walked towards her husband.”When did you call the lady boss?”
Ruan Zeyan looked at her dotingly. “When you were changing and was.h.i.+ng.”
Ling Tianya’s eyes were twinkling. “You already knew that I would want to drop by here?”
“Yeah.” He was grinning, and he tugged on her ponytail playfully. He used to enjoy doing that as well.
He used to sneak to the cafe secretly and tug on her ponytail while she was busy working.
Ling Tianya was moved by his gesture. Although her man was so busy that he had no time to prepare a gift for her, she still felt the romance that Valentine’s Day.
Compared to a material gift, Ruan Zeyan’s heart and sincerity mattered much more to her.
Or rather, Ruan Zeyan was the best Valentine’s gift she could ask for.
That Valentine’s Day, Ling Tianya and Ruan Zeyan didn’t go anywhere else. They stayed in the cafe for the entire day and tried their hand at latte art. After a few unsuccessful tries, Ling Tianya finally warmed up and managed to make a cup of heart-shaped cappuccino.
Since Ling Tianya was still breastfeeding, she couldn’t drink coffee. Her masterpiece was naturally savored by Ruan Zeyan.
The following day after Valentine’s Day was New Year’s Eve. Ruan Qishan was in a good mood that year. In honor of Tiny Rice Ball, he gave a generous bonus to every employee at Ruan Teng Corporation.
All the employees were extremely thankful towards their little master, Tiny Rice Ball, before he could even speak.
That year, Ling Tianya invited Yu Chens.h.i.+ and Yu Luoluo to the Ruan family for New Year celebrations as well. On the first day of the New Year, Ling Tianya went to the hospital and spent the entire day with Ling Tao who was still in a coma.
