Manhattanhenge

Ning Yixiao hooked the corner of his mouth.

"What if I want to foul?"

"Then I'll lock you up to sleep outside." Su Hui raised his eyebrows, blew cold egg custard, and took a big mouthful in satisfaction.

Ning Yixiao said directly: "You can't sleep."

"I couldn't sleep at first, so I could read a book, watch a movie or draw a picture." Su Hui smiled.

He got up, took out the unfinished half bottle of wine from the refrigerator, poured it into the glass and took a sip, "How about it, do you want to play?"

Ning Yixiao took the cup, "Come on."

They move from the dining room island to the living room.

The living room is large, with a high ceiling and a spacious, Bauhaus-style decoration, and the decorative paintings on the walls are very retro.The floor is covered with a dark green carpet, and the sofa is soft and fluffy, like fudge melted by the fireplace.

Ning Yixiao walked to the side, turned on the vinyl record player, played Su Hui's favorite music, and turned on a floor lamp. In an instant, the originally empty room suddenly overflowed with heat.

Su Hui took the coffee table away, sat cross-legged on the carpet, and put the wine glass aside.

"Let's do this." He turned on the clock on his phone and chose a three-to-10-minute countdown, "Let's talk about the truth first, and put the big adventures later."

Ning Yixiao sat on the sofa with a smile in his eyes, "What are you afraid of?"

Su Hui pretended to be confused, and touched his earrings, "Of course I'm afraid that some people will break the rules too early and won't be able to continue playing."

After speaking, he stretched out his hand and put his right fist on his shoulder like a child, ready to make a move.

"Hurry up, rock-paper-scissors-paper!"

Su Hui made a pair of scissors, and Ning Yixiao made cloth.

It's a good sign to have the upper hand in the first game.Su Hui was quite happy, "You lost!"

Ning Yixiao nodded, leaning against the sofa with a casual expression, "Ask."

"Let me think about..."

When Su Hui was thinking, his eyes would subconsciously look up.

"Yes." He narrowed his eyes, "Ning Yixiao, when did you become short-sighted?"

Ning Yixiao was startled, then smiled, "I finally won a game, so I have to ask this kind of question?"

Su Hui was serious, "I've always been curious. You didn't wear glasses before. I remember you have very good eyesight. I just want to know."

He knew that Ning Yixiao would not understand, but Su Hui cared about every little change in him, wanted to know the reason, and wanted to know everything they missed.I didn't ask before because I didn't have a suitable position. The ex-boyfriend's seat is too embarrassing, worse than that of a stranger.

But it's different now.

Su Hui wanted to make up for the ignorance of those six years.

"I would like to bet and admit defeat, answer quickly."

Ning Yixiao thought for a second whether to lie or not, but since he was telling the truth, he still planned to be more honest.

"The vision was pretty good before, but after the car accident, the doctor said that the optic nerve in my right eye was damaged, so the vision in the right eye became very poor, and I could see things blurry. But because I have been undergoing treatment in recent years, I have recovered a little. Not wearing glasses now doesn’t affect seeing much, but there is a difference in vision between the left and right eyes, so it’s better to wear them.”

It was only then that Su Hui realized that it turned out that he was wearing glasses not because of myopia at all, but because of the sequelae of the car accident.

He couldn't imagine what would have happened if Ning Yixiao hadn't been treated in time.

Seeing that Su Hui's eyes became sad, Ning Yixiao, who was sitting on the sofa, leaned over and pinched his chin, "Why are you in a daze?"

"It's not as serious as you think." He withdrew his hand and said casually, "The doctor said I was fatal. He said that they would see a lot of car accident injuries after a week in the emergency department. I'm already very mild. No. It hurts."

Su Hui didn't quite believe what Ning Yixiao said, so she was silent for a few seconds.

Ning Yixiao took a sip of his wine, "Second game?"

Su Hui didn't raise her hand, but got up and walked over, opened her arms, "Hug me first."

"Okay." Ning Yixiao put her arms around his waist.

Su Hui lowered her head and kissed his eyes.

Ning Yixiao laughed at himself, "Fortunately, there are no scars left on my face."

Su Hui kissed again, "It doesn't matter if you have scars, I like you no matter what."

These words pleased Ning Yixiao.

The game continues.

"rock-paper-scissors--"

Su Huishi, Ning Yixiaobu, the situation is reversed.

The first question Ning Yixiao asked seemed to be knowingly asking, looking directly into Su Hui's eyes, and speaking in a gentle voice, "How have you been in the past six years? Is there anything happy about it?"

These are two problems.

But Su Hui didn't care.

It seems that every pair of lovers after breaking up will ask similar questions after they meet each other again.But they didn't ask, and Ning Yixiao didn't ask such a question until they got back together, it was more like a comfort than curiosity.

Su Hui didn't pretend to be strong, but she smiled and shook her head, "It's not very good, I'm a bit unlucky, I've been stumbling all the time, but when I think about it carefully, I didn't seem to be very good before, the only happy time was falling in love with you."

He grabbed a pillow casually, hugged it in his arms, and grabbed the corner of the pillow, "Happy things... If I have to say it, it's actually being able to be taken to New York to study by Professor White. To be more specific..."

Su Hui's memory is not better than that of ordinary people. She almost forgot many things, and most of what she remembers is some not-so-good past. These seem to be deeper than happy little things.

He tried hard to recall, and when he thought of something, his eyes lit up, "Didn't we meet in that hotel in Seattle? The next day I went to the Seattle Art Museum to participate in an exhibition, and a person collected my works. In fact, there was one before. , but not so fast, and my grandmother was diagnosed with liver cancer later, so this collector has solved my urgent need."

Ning Yixiao's expression was calm and serious, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

"is it?"

Su Hui nodded, "And he is also very nice. We occasionally send emails to each other, and he even made me a small gift with my work. I feel that he understands me very well, and is different from others."

When he talked about this collector, he unconsciously had a smile on his face and leaned on the sofa with a very cute tone. Make him feel different.

What if he knew the truth?

"You like him very much?" Ning Yixiao asked intentionally.

Su Hui noticed the subtle change in Ning Yixiao's expression, and immediately clarified, "No, it's pure appreciation, the kind between friends."

Ning Yixiao nodded, shaking the wrist holding the wine glass.

"Don't think too much." Su Hui emphasized, "I haven't even met him before."

Ning Yixiao held back a smile, "Well, she's quite obedient."

After he finished speaking, he deliberately made things difficult again, "Would you like him without me?"

Su Hui didn't think about this kind of problem at all.

"I don't know, I can't make such an assumption." He frowned, "I can't seem to like other people, and I can't imagine liking other people."

These words sound flattering, but they are not meant to flatter Ning Yixiao.

This relationship is like a dream engraved in Su Hui's body. It has appeared, disillusioned, and lost again. All his emotions and talents that could be used to fall in love are all desperate, and there is no more. Can be used to distribute to anyone else.

Saying that, Su Hui smiled, "It's easier for me to fall in love with small animals. I love one when I see one, but humans..."

He shook his head.

"Okay, okay, next round." Su Hui urged.

The direction of the game began to be manipulated by Su Hui's bad luck.

"I lost again..." Su Hui was so angry that he hit his right hand with his left hand.

Ning Yixiao put down the cup, with the attitude of a winner, "The one just now can only be regarded as an appetizer, I'm going to get serious."

This sounded like a threat, so Su Hui took the glass and poured some more wine, "Fortunately, it's the truth-telling session, let's ask."

Ning Yixiao's brows were straight, her eyes were narrow and deep, her aura was strong when she was not smiling, even if she was not doing anything.

He asked with an extremely indifferent face: "We have been separated for so long, have you ever thought of me and masturbated?"

Su Hui thought that he would ask some unserious questions, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

He bent one leg, put his chin on his knee, and lowered his eyes, avoiding Ning Yixiao's eyes.

"Yes...is it alright?"

Ning Yixiao didn't intend to let it go like this, "It's so simple? You have answered very deeply before."

After hearing this, Su Hui raised his eyes, "How deep do you want to hear?"

His eyes are always moist and bright, like a child's pupils, but with a natural allure.

"It's all right, you decide." Ning Yixiao smiled lightly.

Su Hui still answered very seriously, "Actually, after we separated, most of the time was depressed, and the manic period came very rarely and very shortly. Usually, there is no time to think about these things, but there will still be manic periods, which cannot be controlled, so some A few times..."

It's too shameful to admit in front of your boyfriend that you want him to do it yourself after breaking up just after getting back together.

"Thinking of me?"

"En." Su Hui's voice became softer.

Not just thoughts, but hallucinations.

When the hallucinations were at their worst, no matter what Su Hui did, "Ning Yixiao" was by his side, talking with him, even touching and hugging him.

Thinking about it carefully, it was actually scary, but Su Hui couldn't tell the difference at that time, it was a very happy time in his paralyzed days.

"Is it all right?" Su Hui glanced at Ning Yixiao and proceeded to the next round.

Ning Yixiao played scissors this time and lost to Su Hui.

Su Hui is easy to cheer up, a small victory will make him laugh happily, but he is also a little drunk, so happy that he will feel dizzy when he raises his head.

After stabilizing for a long time, he asked a question that wasn't too tricky.

"After we're separated, what do you do when you miss me?"

Ning Yixiao thought for a while, "Do you still remember the kitten doll you gave me?"

Su Hui blinked slowly, "Yes."

"I'll look at it, squeeze its little hands, its legs, or pet its head."

"That's it?" Su Hui imagined that scene and felt that Ning Yixiao was a bit pitiful.

Ning Yixiao smiled, "Do you want to hear some restricted answers?"

Su Hui immediately waved his hands, "No."

Ning Yixiao followed suit, "That's not true~"

They quickly competed for another round, and Ning Yixiao had a rare losing streak.

Su Hui reached the peak of complacency, and didn't think about the question seriously, "When did you fall in love with me?"

Ning Yixiao felt that he was a little lost, "Shouldn't this kind of question be asked six years ago?"

"What does it matter..." Su Hui took another sip of wine, "Anyway, you will be my boyfriend six years ago and six years from now, so hurry up."

Ning Yixiao couldn't get around him and paused for a moment.

"When I first met you."

Su Hui had actually guessed, but was still startled when he heard him say it himself.

Ning Yixiao continued, "In the audio-visual room, you were late and sneaked in. At that time, the projected light fell on your face. It was the first time I discovered that there would be such a beautiful person."

"Obviously." Ning Yixiao smiled, "Didn't you tell me on purpose that I stared at you for a long time?"

"Not on purpose." Su Hui immediately corrected, "Because I was in the irritable period at that time, and I spoke more directly...so is this love at first sight?"

He smiled like a kid who got an award.

"Ah."

Su Hui originally wanted to say that he also fell in love with him at first sight, but he thought it would be better for Ning Yixiao to ask himself, so he suppressed his almost blurted out.

"Next game, next game."

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the alarm clock rang suddenly.

Ning Yixiao raised his eyebrows, "The big adventure is about to begin, Teacher Su."

The stamina of the alcohol gradually picked up, and Su Hui felt hot.

Every time he was drunk, his clean and plump face always showed a bit of confusion, and the thin upper eyelids were raised, revealing tired eyes.

Su Hui still maintained the gesture, waiting for Ning Yixiao to extend his hand.

Ning Yixiao clenched his fist, and he showed the scissors.

Su Hui wondered if Ning Yixiao had some mind-reading skills, otherwise why could he keep winning.

"I lost again..."

He threw his head back on the sofa, his legs stretched out on the ground, and gave up on himself.

Ning Yixiao's feet in slippers lightly touched Su Hui's toes.

"Are you cheating before you even started?"

"No cheating." Su Hui sat up, "You can mention it, just don't go too far..."

"What is too much?" Ning Yixiao deliberately teased him, "Take off a piece of clothing, is it too much?"

Su Hui looked down.

"Ok."

All this didn't go according to Su Hui's imagination at all. He thought that he could win a few rounds, gain the upper hand, and let Ning Yixiao follow his lead.

But the reality is quite the opposite.

Su Hui undid the top two buttons very slowly, and then pulled the clothes directly to get rid of them.His bleached silver hair was messed up, fluffy and slightly curly, shining in the warm yellow light of the living room, half covering Su Hui's red ears.

He is thin, with a thin waist, and has inconspicuous striped abdominal muscles. After drinking alcohol, his whole skin is flushed, and the shape of his ribs is faintly visible. The navel nail he wears today is a very small butterfly, shining with subtle Light.

Ning Yixiao suddenly thought of the photo he took with that diamond waist chain. Under the dim light, the interlaced shiny chains hung on his waist, and his every move was shining brightly.

Su Hui's arm was dazzlingly white, and the veins on the inside were clearly visible, like light blue leaf veins.

"Okay?" Su Hui found that he was watching seriously, stretched out one foot, stepped on Ning Yixiao's knee, and said in a commanding tone, "Next game."

This time, Su Hui managed to win a round, defeating Ning Yixiao's cloth with scissors.

Once turned over, Su Hui was quite proud, and threw back Ning Yixiao's request intact, "It's not too much to take off one piece of clothing."

Ning Yixiao didn't comment, but did as he did. He was wearing a large black hooded sweater, raised his hand to take it off, and shook his head.His hair is also longer and fluffy.

Su Hui liked this little gesture very much, it reminded him of some big dogs.

Ning Yixiao's complexion is much darker than his, and his body shape is also very different, with well-defined muscles and broad shoulders.Su Hui felt that she was probably in a daze, so even the scars on his body felt sexy.

"You don't exercise every day, why are your muscles so good..." Su Hui lamented that God was unfair.

"I swim a lot."

Ning Yixiao didn't do anything to directly show the wound, a little uncomfortable, but Su Hui seemed to like it very much.

"Does it look good?"

Su Hui nodded obediently.

"Next round." Ning Yixiao said.

Unlucky, Su Hui lost again, Shitou against Shangbu.

"How can I be so unlucky?"

Su Hui almost knew what Ning Yixiao would ask, and he was ashamed.

Ning Yixiao smiled, "Do you want to go back on your word?"

"Of course not." Su Hui was ready, but what he didn't expect was that Ning Yixiao didn't act according to his expectation.

"That's good." He stood up, and the shadow descended like a dark shadow, covering Su Hui's body.

Once again, Su Hui seemed to return to those days when hallucinations and reality were intertwined. In the narrow and lonely room, he was bound by the night, eagerly looking forward to Ning Yixiao's hug and kiss. False, does not exist.

Now, the real Ning Yixiao came over, obeyed the rules of the game, didn't touch him, just bent down and whispered something in Su Hui's ear.

After he finished speaking, he backed away a little, sat back on the sofa opposite him, and waited to watch.

"let's start."

Su Hui's back was scorched by the light, and he was also examined by a clear line of sight, like a book with only pictures, which was read without hindrance.

He was a little drowsy, stood up while leaning on the edge of the sofa, and a flock of white seagulls flew over the beach outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, falling soundlessly onto the reef like cloth falling.

Those shells opened by breathing in sea water are defenseless when they spread out the softness inside, but as long as there is a little wind and grass, they will shrink back and retract.

Su Hui's red knees were shaking.

too bright.

He closed his eyes and frowned unconsciously.The temperature in the room is suitable, like every intoxicating spring night, but his forehead and back are already covered with sticky sweat.

"Don't bite." Ning Yixiao said in a low voice, "let go of your lips."

The time is elongated, and the minute hand draws a third of the arc on the disk.

The brown leather sofa sticks tightly when it gets wet, like a breathless kiss.

"It's alright..."

"No." Ning Yixiao looked rational and clear-headed, as if he was making the most scientific judgment on the subject of the experiment.

"Noteven cummingyet."

"Ning Yixiao, you are sick..."

Su Hui suddenly approached, with pink embers and a little bit of displeasure, leaned over, wrapped his arms around his neck, and began to play tricks, "I don't want to play anymore."

Ning Yixiao deliberately took his hand away.

Their appearance at this moment reminded Su Hui of Frederick Leighton's oil painting "The Siren and the Fisherman", which was exactly the same.

"Why do you hide..." Su Hui was a little unbearable.

The corners of Ning Yixiao's mouth were straightened, suppressing his emotions, "Su Hui, these are all the rules you set."

"So obedient, are you a puppy?"

Su Hui smiled hazily and sat up, her voice was very soft and vague.

A weak air current flows in too close a distance.

"Then you'd better not reach out, allnight."
