About this game
An urban encounter, full of missteps and surprises, is quietly brewing in the sunlight of a coffee shop.
This is a visual novel about chance encounters, misunderstandings, and the intersection of the virtual and the real. It is a story full of "love and hope."
Synopsis
Lin Mo is an ordinary programmer.
Less than a year after graduating from college, his former enthusiasm has been worn away by the daily grind. His life has been compressed into a tedious and monotonous routine between three points: his company, his rented apartment, and a coffee shop he frequents.
He thought life would always be this way.
Until this afternoon, when a mysterious young girl, whose appearance seems inconsistent with her age, bursts into his unchanging daily life.
Because of a comical misunderstanding, he and this girl, named Su Youqing, cross paths. Lin Mo gradually discovers that this sharp-tongued, proud, and outwardly childish girl seems to be hiding many secrets that her appearance belies.
For Lin Mo, who has long lost his motivation for change, will this encounter that began in a coffee shop be the opportunity he needs to break free from his dull life?
Character Introduction
Su Youqing (CV: Qian Mingling):
Age: 23
A mysterious young woman whom Lin Mo encounters at a coffee shop near his company, where she is always drawing in a corner. She has a petite appearance, looking much younger than her actual age, but is in fact a university graduate and a working adult.
She has a mischievous, impish personality and loves to tease people with her sharp tongue and jokes, especially delighting in watching Lin Mo's flustered expressions after being teased. Although she always maintains a composed and proud demeanor, she immediately becomes flustered and reveals her vulnerable nature when sincerely praised or cared for.
As a highly talented freelance illustrator, once she picks up her digital tablet and enters a creative state, she becomes completely immersed in her own world, oblivious to her surroundings.
She regards Lin Mo as "the most amusing toy to tease," yet, without realizing it, she has also let down all her pretenses in front of him.
Lin Mo (Male Protagonist):
Age: 22
A programmer at an IT company. He has been working for half a year and is competent at his job, but is gradually feeling weary and longs for an event to break the monotony of his quiet life.
