Just as Huo Xiao was about to retreat, a strong aroma of coffee wafted out from the shop.
Huo Xiao did not dislike the smell. In fact, the smell could even make him feel relaxed.
He gritted his teeth and followed Zhu Ge into the coffee shop.
Dr. Meng had once told Huo Xiao that although his condition had obviously improved, and he would not have any adverse reactions from easily coming into contact with anything...
However, this did not mean that he was absolutely safe. Any sudden situation could cause his condition to flare up.
Especially in a crowded place, it was very easy to trigger his condition.
Lin Shu was indeed already satisfied that Huo Xiao’s condition had improved so much.
Since young, the Huo family had tried every means to find a famous doctor for Huo Xiao. They had also tried psychological intervention, medication, physical desensitization, and all sorts of methods.
However, Huo Xiao’s condition was getting worse and worse.
It was only when he met Dr. Meng that he managed to barely control the frequency of Huo Xiao’s illness.
Huo Xiao, who had almost never interacted with anyone since he was young, did not really enter school until he was in high school.
Not to mention the crowded shopping malls, shops, and other places!
Huo Xiao walked into the coffee shop and followed Zhu Ge to a corner.
“This shop is very clean. Sister Chen cleans and disinfects it every day!” Zhu Ge introduced with a smile.
“Do you come here often?” Huo Xiao looked around and found that other than a few sofa seats, there were only a few huge bookshelves in the coffee shop.
The bookshelves were filled with books. This place looked more like a library.
“Are you... okay?” Zhu Ge asked tentatively again.
Huo Xiao nodded and sat down on the sofa.
The sofas in the coffee shop were all made of leather. The pure white sofa seats made Huo Xiao feel much more comfortable.
“It looks like you’re really so much better now...” Zhu Ge said with a chuckle.
Ever since Huo Xiao returned to school from sick leave, Zhu Ge had noticed that Huo Xiao’s severe mysophobia seemed to have improved.
He no longer objected to anyone accidentally touching him.
He did not particularly resist the act of passing the examination papers around among his classmates.
However, Zhu Ge was not sure if Huo Xiao had really fully recovered.
At the door, Huo Xiao’s hesitation even caused Zhu Ge to feel regret for a moment.
Huo Xiao smiled at Zhu Ge. “It’s my first time here, so I’ll have to trouble you.”
Zhu Ge smiled and said, “Don’t worry! I’m familiar with this place! It definitely will satisfy you!”
As Zhu Ge spoke, he went to the bar counter and ordered something.
Not long after, Xie Xiao came to their table with a tray.
“Zhu Ge said that you were here, but I didn’t believe him!” Xie Xiao said as he stared at Huo Xiao.
Huo Xiao twisted his body unnaturally and said, “I want to get used to this kind of life.”
Xie Xiao chuckled and said, “Don’t worry. The plates are new, and your utensils are freshly taken out and specially sterilized!”
“You don’t have to force yourself. Just let me know if there’s anything you need!” Xie Xiao smiled understandingly.
Zhu Ge looked at Xie Xiao with some dissatisfaction. “Why didn’t I get this kind of treatment?”
Xie Xiao raised her eyebrows. “Birds of a feather flock together!”
Zhu Ge shrunk back into the sofa in dissatisfaction and asked, “When will the limited edition cake from my idol be ready? I’ll go get it myself!”
Xie Xiao turned around and looked in the direction of the kitchen. “It might take a little longer today.”
At this moment, Lu Chang and the others arrived at the coffee shop.
Xie Xiao hurriedly walked over to greet them. “You guys are here!”
Lu Chang expressed his gratitude to Xie Xiao, and then specially went to the bar to thank Xie Chen.
Xie Chen waved his hand with a smile on his face and pointed to a spot behind the green plants on the other side. “The tables and chairs have been prepared for you. Let me know anytime if you need anything!”
Lu Chang thanked her again and led the other team members to the study area that Xie Chen had set up.
This row was separated from the sofa area where Huo Xiao and the others were sitting by two huge bookshelves.
They could not see each other and would not easily affect each other.
Shen You stared at the oven in the kitchen. “What’s wrong with me today!”
She patted her head in frustration.
Xie Xiao walked into the kitchen and asked, “How is it? Are you done?”
Shen You looked at Xie Xiao apologetically. “I still need to wait a little longer.”
Xie Xiao smiled and said, “It’s okay! Don’t be anxious! Also, the flowers and pear fragrance that you made the last time were very popular. Did you make them today?”
Shen You tapped Xie Xiao’s nose and said, “Is this a dog’s nose? How did you know that I made these two today?”
Xie Xiao chuckled and said, “We have minds that are in sync!”
