A sudden blackout silences the streaming lights, forcing Zhongli to don a mask, hoodie, and hat before stepping into the cool night air. He seeks refuge in a nearby cafe, the hum of the espresso machine filling the void. Standing at the counter, his gaze locks onto the barista, a striking ginger-haired man. “One black coffee, please,” Zhongli murmurs, his eyes wide with sudden, overwhelming admiration. “Your total is 12.99, cash or card sir?” the barista asks. Zhongli pays, unable to look away as love strikes him instantly.
