Chapter 63 N. Undercurrent Surge

Hearing this sentence, Su Hui couldn't tell what kind of mood he was in.

He suddenly woke up from those boring emotions.

What's wrong with Ning Yixiao?Taking a step back, even if everything is as Carl said, Ning Yixiao still has the right to contact other people, they have nothing to do with each other, Su Hui has no right to be jealous.

The person who caused them to cross the line of friends was themselves, not Ning Yixiao.No one is obliged to accommodate his desire for monopoly that has no position.Ning Yixiao had already treated him very well. He was the person in the world who had the most right to take revenge on himself, but he never did.

"You did nothing wrong."

Su Hui lowered her eyes and said in a soft voice, "I'm sorry, I'm in a bad mood today, and my attitude towards you is bad, it's my fault."

Ning Yixiao didn't take back his hand, he was quiet, and smiled, "Actually, I like you quite a bit. You are always submissive, easy to control, very docile, and occasionally make you petty but cute."

He likes Su Hui's occasional childishness, especially only for him.

Su Hui stopped talking.

"So you don't need to apologize." Ning Yixiao was straightforward, "I don't want you to become a person who doesn't even dare to lose your temper, and keeps everything in your heart."

Even though he knew that Su Hui was already such a person now.

Even if Su Hui was forced by him to move out of the place where he lived before and had nowhere to go, he only dared to hide by himself and wandered in the streets, at best he could only say "it can be discussed".

He became unable to express his emotions. It took Ning Yixiao a long time to get along with him, and then gradually, Su Hui was able to let go of his guard and laugh and cry at him.

He didn't want to go back to the time when they just met again, when Su Hui was just an empty shell, unconscious and unresponsive.

He also doesn't want to be hesitant, use so-called revenge and hatred to make himself take more detours, waste more time, but get farther and farther away from the goal.

None of that matters, the past is the past.Ning Yixiao is a goal-oriented person, who only wants to realize the only vision he wants now, so that Su Hui will voluntarily return to him and fall in love with him.

His tone was calm, "If you are in a bad mood, I hope I can be your confidant. If you can't confide, you can blow my hair. Anyway, your temper is pitiful, and you can't say a serious word. Even The little wild cats on the side of the road are worse."

Su Hui had no choice, he was thoroughly eaten by Ning Yixiao, and he wanted to refute, but he couldn't.

Having said that, Ning Yixiao was unwilling to tell him what happened to Ning Yixiao, how could he confess.

After Ning Yixiao finished speaking, he stretched out his hand in front of Su Hui again, "Slap twice and let it out."

Su Hui stared at the palms of his hands, they were all subtle marks left by frequent washing hands, and there were injuries on his arms, all of which Ning Yixiao suffered during his absence.

The tip of his nose was sour, suppressing distress and grievance.

After a few seconds, Ning Yixiao felt relieved when he saw that he really raised his hand, but he didn't expect that things didn't develop according to his imagination——Su Hui's hand was half-clasped, but just lightly touched his palm, Let go quickly.

A toffee fell into Ning Yixiao's palm.

Ning Yixiao froze for a moment, then looked at Su Hui.

He was a little awkward, and rolled his eyes, "I accidentally took too much, I can't eat it, you can eat it."

Ning Yixiao stared at the candy in his hand, thinking of the way Su Hui stuffed him with candy before, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Just one? You're stingy."

Su Hui immediately took out the pockets of his trousers to prove his innocence, "Just one, I ate it all."

I still eat sugar when I'm unhappy, it's the same as before.

"No wonder you've been covering your cheeks, eating too much, toothache?"

"Show me." Ning Yixiao stretched out his hand to pinch his chin, but Su Hui didn't dodge it. slipped away.

Ning Yixiao also got up from the sofa, skipping Julian who was standing outside the shed watching a movie, and returned to the sofa to have an impromptu phone conference with the COO.

The new product was launched, and this time he joined the founder's marketing model, and the attention reached a new high, so that he had almost no time to fly back to New York to meet Su Hui recently.

After finally finishing the first stage of the promotional activities, Ning Yixiao made the schedule as soon as possible, but at this moment, bad news also arrived.

UEO, also an artificial intelligence company, actually launched a smart wearable product with a very similar model two weeks after MsnF launched a new generation of product lines, and played a bottomless marketing slogan - "Easier, more efficient, more cost-effective .”

At the same time, UEO has placed a large number of marketing advertisements on the Internet. The core word is "high-quality replacement", directly attracting traffic from their products, promoting at low prices, and doing everything they can. "Suppression" method collapsed the product chain, making it impossible for them to go public smoothly.

Only then did Ning Yixiao realize that some time ago, an engineer in their team temporarily resigned due to illness.

In such a vicious competition, Ning Yixiao was pressured by the investor behind him. The investor asked Ning Yixiao to also carry out promotions and fight a price war, but he rejected it.

When Karl asked him if he would go back to New York, Ning Yixiao insisted on going back, but not just to accompany Su Hui, but also to obtain his biggest resource so far: the Jones Group.

But Ning Yixiao is also very clear that these people are old foxes in the shopping mall. If they go straight to Jones' office from the Bay Area, everyone will know that he has plans. The purpose is too obvious, and the only thing they get is Tai Chi.

Therefore, he chose to settle in Bella's studio for the first time. In Jones' eyes, he thought it was just a private trip with his daughter.

In this way, the subsequent development will be more convincing, even if everything is planned and arranged by Ning Yixiao.

Su Hui finished the second set of looks, and followed Chloe's assistant to the new studio. The set has been set up here. Unlike before, the new set has a strong sense of dream core:

The meeting room is dark blue and dim, with dark green water on the ground, and a snow-white hospital bed in the center.

The edge of the huge vertical projection on the wall emits blue light, and the picture on the curtain is abundant spring and summer sunshine, and layers of grass waves dancing with the wind.The entire curtain is like a door to any dream.

Su Hui's makeup also turned into a sickly hangover makeup, her eyes were flushed, her lips were very pale, and she was wearing a silk suit that was one size bigger, and it was opened to reveal the skin on her chest and waist.

"Did you know that Eddy still has navel nail piercings." Bella was still immersed in surprise, "Fortunately, the stylist brought everything, and this dress with this set of diamond navel nail waist chain is also amazing. It worked better than expected.”

The stylist who was waiting for makeup said with a smile: "Eddy's contrast is really great. He looks gentle and gentle. I didn't expect tattoos to be pierced. The tattoos on his waist are also cool, but he doesn't seem to want to show them. He wanted me to cover it with concealer, and it took me a long time to convince him."

Julian listened quietly, observing part of the tattoo on Su Hui's waist, and only part of the words.But he has a certain intuition that this tattoo may be related to Ning Yixiao.

Chloe focused on Su Hui in the camera, "Eddy, stand between the curtain and the bed, and give me a hair-tying motion."

According to what she said, Su Hui bit the hair tie, raised her hand backwards, and grabbed a part of her hair.

"Very good, lie down on the bed, and the props team cast the projection on Eddy."

The flowing water wave projection is like a double exposure, falling on Su Hui's clothes and skin, and the navel nails and chains around his waist are shining.

Su Hui wanted to concentrate on his work, but his consciousness was out of control. He was very afraid of the bed, especially this kind of bed.

In order not to be too nervous, like a protection mechanism, he suddenly thought of Ning Yixiao.

Fear and longing intertwined in his eyes, he had a momentary hallucination, he was like this a few years ago, forced to be trapped in the room, a door connecting dreams appeared on the wall, Ning Yixiao appeared from it, rescued over him.

"Very good, very good, look at the camera."

Chloe kept praising Su Hui's expressiveness, but Su Hui didn't feel anything.

Everything is going well, maybe this kind of career needs neurotic people.

Finished shooting the second part, only the last set, the set is not done yet.

Su Hui came out temporarily, and Bella's assistant put on his coat for him. Suddenly, the air conditioner in the styling room had a problem, and it was very cold. They had to take him to the lounge first, and then let the stylist come to remove his makeup.

"The stylist has something to do now. It may take a while to come. Please wait a moment."

Su Hui nodded, followed him, and opened the door only to find that Ning Yixiao was sitting in the sofa booth in the lounge, making a phone call to the blinds, and when he heard the sound, he also turned his head and met Su Hui's eyes .

Su Hui's first reaction was to wrap herself tightly in a coat, fearing that Ning Yixiao would be embarrassed when she saw the waist chain and tattoos.

"Sit down, Eddy, I'll get you some hot tea."

Ning Yixiao stared at him without looking away, and said directly, "Come here."

Su Hui stood still, but chose to go and sit opposite him.

"You finished the second set so soon?"

Su Hui nodded, "Yes."

"The efficiency is very high, it seems that you are really suitable to be a model."

After Ning Yixiao finished speaking, she said in English into the earphone microphone, "I'll talk about it later, I will follow my instructions for taking pictures", then tapped the earphone, and hung up the phone.

Su Hui noticed that there was a laptop and coffee in front of him, as if he came here specially to deal with work.The coffee has bottomed out, and it seems that there has been no rest.

Su Hui wanted to ask him if he was tired and if he wanted to go back to the apartment to rest, but just as he opened his mouth, the door of the rest room opened again.

He looked over and saw Julian entering the door with a smile.

"You don't mind having one more person." Julian said with a smile, "There are too many people outside, and I have been busy for a long time. I want to find a quieter place to sit."

Su Hui lowered his head to drink water, and swallowed back what he hadn't said.

Ning Yixiao glanced at him, "You can go to Bella's rest room."

But Julian laughed, "Bella's rest room is messy and full of ready-made clothes, so I won't go." After he finished speaking, he sat directly next to Ning Yixiao, and leaned over across the table, "Just now shooting I took a look at it, and it turned out that you still have tongue nails, so cool."

Su Hui felt a little uncomfortable, and smiled, "I called when I was not sensible."

"Is that because you were beaten when you were very young? I really can't tell. You look... very pure and well-behaved." After Julian finished speaking, he smiled, "Actually, I really want to try it, but unfortunately I was afraid It hurts, I was going to get my grandfather's name tattooed on my finger."

Su Hui wanted to be more friendly, but he didn't know what to say, so he responded with a non-painful content, "Tattoos are a bit painful, and tongue nails are more painful."

"And it should be easy to regret it." Julian smiled. "I heard that tattoo removal is more painful."

Ning Yixiao's expression became impatient, and his typing fingers stopped.

"I still have to work..."

"I haven't washed it before." Su Hui spoke first.

Ning Yixiao paused for a moment, then looked up at Su Hui.

Julian was also taken aback, and then smiled, "It seems that you are also afraid of pain."

Su Hui shook the cup, "I'm not afraid, in fact, I'm a little bit in love, so I like piercing, tattoo because I like it, want to tattoo, don't want to wash because I like it."

Ning Yixiao looked at him, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Su Hui lowered her eyes, "Although I know it's painful, and there will be a short-term pleasure when washing, but I want to keep it."

Julian listened, glanced at Ning Yixiao from the corner of his eye, and then looked back at Su Hui, "Tattoos usually represent memories. My first love tattooed my painting on him, here."

He pointed to the side of his neck and said with a smile, "After we broke up, I advised him to wash it off, but he said it doesn't matter, and told me that memories are just memories, people will move forward, tattoos are just, it doesn't matter whether you wash it or not. "

Su Hui fell into silence.

He had an intuition that Julian seemed to know something, meant something.

"I'm just busy talking about this." Julian said to Su Hui as if thinking of something, "I heard that you are an alumnus of Shaw's undergraduate course. Coincidentally, I was an alumni of his graduate school. We can also be regarded as an intercollegiate social relationship."

Su Hui nodded, "University S is very good, and Shaw is excellent."

Ning Yixiao stared at Su Hui's face, wondering what else Su Hui could say, but he seemed to realize that what he said just now was too direct, and now he became restrained again.

"Yeah, did you know that he was like an entrepreneurial star at S University, very powerful. I remember that he drew his goal into a mind map at the symposium and separated it. Now it seems that, Those goals are being achieved one by one.”

Su Hui clearly felt Julian's guidance. He kept talking about Ning Yixiao's time at S University. Those things were blank for him. He had never experienced them, and they were not his time.

He was like someone who was squeezed out of the chat box, unable to do anything but laugh with him.

"I found him in the background and exchanged mailboxes with him..."

"Julian, don't you want to rest, why are you talking so much?" Ning Yixiao's attitude was a little cold, as if he really wanted to forcibly interrupt their conversation.

Su Hui was a little surprised by his attitude.

It doesn't feel like the tone you should have with your partner.

Su Hui was shaken, and suddenly doubted the authenticity of Carl's information, but he was Ning Yixiao's personal assistant.

Julian didn't back down, but acted coquettishly, "What's the matter? You think I'm noisy, isn't this a compliment to your undergraduate alumni, what a face, isn't it Eddy?"

Su Hui didn't like this kind of identity definition, but she also twitched her lips, "Well, it's okay, I really don't know much about his graduate school."

Julian blinked, "Really? Didn't he tell you this?"

Su Hui raised his eyes and looked at Ning Yixiao, but quickly looked away, pretending to be relaxed, "No."

"That's how it is." Julian said with a smile, "He is such a person. He doesn't like to share with others. He doesn't like the good and the bad. He has a high defense and only does things that are helpful to him."

Su Hui was powerless to refute, and felt a little hard to breathe, so he lowered his head and took a sip of water.

Ning Yixiao's patience had reached a critical point, he wanted to disregard etiquette and ask Julian to go out, but at this moment, a mobile phone rang.

"It's not mine, it seems to be Eddy's."

It was only then that Su Hui came to his senses, and looked around for the phone a little bit slowly, and later found it in the pocket of his coat. He hurriedly took out the phone, but brought out something else, which fell to the ground, and he didn't even notice it.

Ning Yixiao wanted to help him pick it up, so he bent down, but when he picked it up, he found that it was a tissue with obvious man's handwriting on the front, saying [You are right, so I don't intend to give up. ]

On the opposite side is a line of contact information.

"Hello? Ryan?"

Su Hui answered the phone, got up subconsciously, and walked away to talk.

But the whole lounge is only so big, even if his voice is kept low, Ning Yixiao can still hear him.

"I'm busy... Well, I know, I promise you that I will treat you to delicious food, but I may have to work late today... Are you here? But I can't get away now..."

Ning Yixiao's complexion visibly deteriorated, he rubbed the tissue, wanted to throw it away, but finally chose to stuff it in his pocket.

Julian noticed something, didn't say much, and drank coffee quietly.

On the other end of the phone, Ryan said that he had asked the professor and knew that Su Hui was in Bella's studio today. He really wanted to meet Su Hui, so he had to beg, "Just five minutes. Bought delicious food, you must have been working all the time and have no time to eat, please, I waited in line for a long time to buy it."

Su Hui couldn't bear to refuse, "Then...then I'll go down and get it after you get here."

Hearing Ryan's happy response, Su Hui said see you for a while, then hung up the phone and returned to the sofa.

He subconsciously wanted to explain to Ning Yixiao, "It's Ryan, he came to deliver something."

Ning Yixiao didn't say yes or no, just smiled, "I thought I was begging you to treat him to dinner."

The atmosphere seemed even more awkward than before.

Su Hui was a little confused, so he put the phone back in his pocket and took another sip of water.

Julian said, "Eddy, do you live in New York, can you recommend me some good restaurants? This guy owes me a meal."

"Hmm..." Su Hui tried hard to search in his mind, but it was blank, so he could only say, "I don't know much about it, I follow others to eat."

"Really? Well, yes, like you, there must be a lot of people rushing to invite you to dinner."

Ning Yixiao stared at Su Hui, almost staring a hole in his face.

Su Hui didn't understand why he wanted to explain, but he did so, "No, it's a work dinner, not a private one."

Julian smiled, "I understand."

This explanation seems more subtle.

Su Hui had a headache, and suddenly the door of the lounge opened again. The receptionist was standing at the door, and Ryan was behind her.

"Eddy, this one is looking for you."

As soon as the receptionist finished speaking, Ryan probed and searched, and his eyes lit up when he saw Su Hui, "Eddy, your hair color is so pretty, it suits you very well."

He walked in quickly, still holding the food bought for him in his hand, his eyes still fixed on Su Hui.

"Why did you come in?" Su Hui stood up, "Didn't I say I'm going down..."

"It's cold outside, and I was already there when I called. The lady at the front desk just said that she can take me up. It's so cool here, with many models."

Ryan never left Su Hui's eyes for a moment, and praised him without hesitation, "You are so beautiful, you are almost like an elf in a movie."

"Stop talking." Su Hui reminded him in a low voice, then turned to introduce Julian, "This is Ryan, he is now a college student and an installation artist."

Ryan and Julian shook hands, and sat down next to Su Hui, "You sit too, standing is very tiring."

He opened the box and put it in front of Su Hui, "This is the oolong lychee cake that I have been waiting for for a long time. Didn't you just say you wanted to try it last time? I finally bought it."

After talking a lot, he realized that there were other people, so he smiled and said, "Let's share the food together."

Ning Yixiao's expression was extremely cold, "No need, I don't eat sweets."

His eyes shifted from Ryan to Su Hui's face, and he deliberately reminded Su Hui when he picked up the fork, "Are you sure you want to eat? Your teeth don't hurt anymore?"

Su Hui froze and looked at Ning Yixiao.

"You have a toothache?" Ryan put down the cake and said with concern, "Are you okay, does it hurt badly? I'll take you to the dentist."

Su Hui shook her head, "It's not serious, I still have work to do, so I can't go."

Ryan didn't care, "Then I'll wait for you, we'll go after you're done." After he finished speaking, he pointed at Su Hui's eyes, "You look so pretty wearing these colored contact lenses."

Seeing that the two were having a heated conversation, Ning Yixiao coughed a few times, pretending to have a sore throat.

Seeing that the coffee in his cup was finished and there was no water, Su Hui poured water into his own cup and pushed it over, "Drink some water."

Julian got up, "I'll go get a new cup." He explained with a smile, "Shaw is a clean freak, sorry."

Su Hui frowned, and before saying anything, Ning Yixiao had stretched out his hand, but when he was about to hold the glass, Ryan took a step ahead and picked up Su Hui's glass.

"Exactly, I want to drink."

Ryan gurgled, raised his head and drank all the water in the glass, then put it down, and said with a smile, "I just queued for too long, and I'm dying of thirst."

Su Hui glanced at Ning Yixiao, and felt that there was a whole dark cloud above his head.

Julian also took a glass of water, returned to the sofa, and sent it in front of him, "Drink it."

Ning Yixiao was unmoved, "No need."

Ryan put his shoulder on Su Hui's and urged him, "Eat it, it's okay to take a sip, if it's really uncomfortable, go to the dentist with me, my aunt is a dentist, she's super nice, you'll know it when you see her. "

Su Hui felt that she was not good enough to eat, or not to eat. Sitting here felt uncomfortable all over, and the seconds felt like years.

He didn't want to disappoint Ryan's kindness, so he scraped a little with a fork and tasted it, "Well, it's delicious."

Ryan was very happy, "Is it? Otherwise, why would those people line up to buy it? I know you too well, so I know you must like it."

Ning Yixiao almost sneered.

"You seem to have a good relationship." Julian showed a gossip expression, "Are you friends? Or...more than friends?"

Ryan's ears turned red instantly, "Ah, actually I..."

Ning Yixiao crossed his arms, interrupted them, stared at Su Hui and said, "Eddy, the students you lead have thinner skins than you."

Su Hui immediately followed Ning Yixiao's words and said, "Yes, Ryan is my student."

He felt very uncomfortable, so he picked up the kettle and poured water for himself with lowered eyes, but he was so embarrassed that he forgot that the cup had already been used.

"Well, I can't see it at all." Julian stared at the two, smiled, and said jokingly, "You seem to be quite a match."

Hearing these words, Su Hui shook his pouring hand, and the water spilled out directly onto the table.

"Excuse me."

Su Hui quickly put down the kettle, trying to wipe the water with paper, but there were two hands in front of her eyes, one was from Ning Yixiao who was directly opposite, and the other was from Ryan who was beside her.

The two handed over tissues at the same time, and both stared at Su Hui, neither of them was going to back down.
