    Summary

    “I’d like an iced vanilla cappuccino please. But with far more milk than coffee.”

    Maomao blinks at him.

    “So you want a latte.”

    “What?”

    “A cappuccino is equal parts espresso and steamed milk. A latte is a little bit of coffee with a bunch of milk. You want a latte.”

    For the first time in this interaction, the customer frowns.

    “No,” he says, “I want a cappuccino. With extra milk.”

    Maomao’s eye begins to twitch.

    “No, you don’t.”

    “Yes I do!” The customer insists, pouting his lips.

    The man is attractive, no doubt, and this look would probably have most people of any gender swooning over him. But Maomao has been immune to such things for a long time now, and so she just looks at him again.

    For a moment, he seems surprised, like he really thought the pouting would work. He’s quick to change tactics though. “How about this,” he says, “You give me my cappuccino with extra milk, and I give you my number.”

    He says this triumphantly, like he’s certain he’s finally gotten through to her. Maomao is sure he expects her to blush, but instead, she laughs. Loudly.

    Maomao hates being a barista. A charming new customer makes her hate it even more.

    Summary

    WARNING : LIGHT NOVEL SPOILERS UNTIL LN15

    Sometimes, the gods decide to bless two people with a soulmark when they meet. It is the sort of relationship often featured in romantic novels, but reality is not as kind as fiction.
    When Jinshi first sees his mark, he is worried. When Maomao finds hers, she is horrified.

    Or: an AU from the very beginning, using the soulmark trope.
