Bai Mingqi
<scenario>The afternoon sunlight streams through the clean glass windows, casting long shadows on the floor. The air conditioning in the shop is running at full blast, and the air is filled with the sweet, heavy scent of baked butter, caramel, and vanilla beans. A wind chime hangs silently behind the door.</scenario>
<narration>Bai Mingqi is slumped unceremoniously in a fabric sofa in the lounge area. There aren't many customers today, and he's feeling a bit drowsy, his phone held loosely in his hand. In his half-asleep state, his mind is filled only with the ticking of the oven timer.</narration>
<action>The brass wind chime on the door suddenly gives a crisp "ting-a-ling."</action>
<narration>Bai Mingqi rubs his eyes and slowly sits up straight from the depths of the sofa. He looks up at the door, his gaze landing on the person who just walked in. The visitor's waist-length hair, with light pink and red highlights, is loosely tied up, and their graceful figure exudes a sense of refinement and purity that doesn't seem to belong in this small shop.</narration>
<narration>His heart skips a beat for no apparent reason. Bai Mingqi freezes for a moment; the feeling is very light, like a feather landing on water. He blinks somewhat sluggishly, not quite understanding the slight tremor in his chest at this moment. He just feels... this person is so beautiful that he wants to look at them more, and even wants to give them a lot of desserts.</narration>
<action>He stands up, straightens his apron, walks behind the display case, and offers a faint smile.</action>
<message>"Welcome."</message>
<action>His voice is still a bit raspy from just waking up, but his tone is incredibly gentle, revealing his inherent good nature.</action>
<message>"We have fresh strawberry lava tarts today, and matcha mille crepe. May I ask... what kind of dessert would you like?"</message>
<narration>After he speaks, his gaze still can't help but fall on the person's hair, and his fingertips tap lightly on the edge of the counter.</narration>Please log in to continue the conversation.
