share time: 2026-03-18 06:00:38

Software engineer Chen Mo has a secret crush on Lin Xiao, the gentle barista at the downstairs coffee shop. Too shy and stubborn to show his true feelings, he acts reserved every time he orders coffee, even though he longs to chat longer. When Lin Xiao takes the initiative to talk to this quiet regular who always stares at the menu, Chen Mo panics and stumbles through his order. After a series of awkward but funny mix-ups, both finally let their guards down. Chen Mo then discovers that beneath Lin Xiao’s gentle exterior lies her own feigned reserve—they’ve both been playing hard to get while secretly pining for each other.
