MTL - Wildfire-Chapter 3
Tang Suoyan didn't want to let the two elders in the family worry about his life. He was already old, so it was too serious. He told Tangning that there was indeed no separation, but it was true that they were not getting along well now.
Tangning didn't reply that night. Tang Suoyan wanted to chat with him, but Tangning obviously didn't want to.
Tang Ning is a genius cardiologist. She came back with Tang Suoyan after he returned to China. They've been together for a long time, many years.
Tang Suoyan was still young when he pursued Tangning, and he hadn't finished his eight years of medical school. Tangning was a class younger than him, a very proud junior, handsome, white, and dazzling. However, no matter how dazzling it was, it couldn't compare to Tang Suoyan, who was an outstanding legendary figure. Professor Xu's pro-student attaches great importance to him, and always takes him with him when performing operations in the hospital, and always has him a share in scientific research projects.
Tangning's pride gave way when facing Tang Suoyan. He didn't use Tang Suoyan to chase him for a long time, and nodded in two months. That era was not as open to sexual orientation as it is now, and two equally good people attracted each other and approached each other, which is a lucky thing no matter how you look at it.
There was a photo of them in the photo frame by the door. In the photo, Tangning jumped onto Tang Suoyan's back from behind, smiling brightly. Tang Suoyan was twenty-three then, and now he is thirty-six. They parted and reunited in the middle, and they also parted a few times.
Tang Ning said that when it came to breaking up, the first time it hurt, the second time it hurt less, and after a few times it became numb.
That is a person who lives very clearly. He wants to live comfortably and toughly. Once last year, he drank too much, and the white shirt he was wearing when he went out was still there. He wrapped his arms around Tang Suoyan's neck, buried his face in the socket of his neck, and cried.
Adults don't seem to cry very much, it seems that it is very shameful to cry after becoming an adult. Tangning was always decent, even in front of Tang Suoyan.
So Tang Suoyan hadn't seen Tangning cry for a few years. That time he cried so much that his white shirt was so wrinkled that he couldn't see it.
He put his arms around Tang Suoyan's neck and said, "I don't want to be with you anymore, but I... I don't want to. Tang Suoyan, I have been with you for so many years and tortured each other. I have lived... the worst thing in my life. A tough thing."
Tang Suoyan didn't understand why Tangning felt that they were torturing each other when they were together, and she couldn't hear any truth from drunken people.
So he only kissed Tangning on the ear, like every time he coaxed him.
Tangning was occasionally sharp, and her mouth was so poisonous, how could she say it. But it's not often like this, he also behaves sometimes. Just like every time he got back together with Tang Suoyan after separation, he was very obedient, gentle and docile, saying that he was wrong and he shouldn't.
He was never stingy with apologizing and hugging himself, put away his sharp thorns and proud chin, and said with a smile that Dr. Tang forgives me. In Tang Suoyan's eyes, they never really separated. It was nothing more than Tangning's own temper tantrum. After the quarrel, let him calm down for a few days, and then he can figure it out.
But this time Tangning's temper tantrum took a long time. From cold winter to spring, Tangning has not come back yet. I don't know when he packed up a lot of his things, maybe when Tang Suoyan went to work one day.
During this time, Tang Suoyan approached him a few times, but Tangning only said that he was tired and wanted to change his life.
Tao Xiaodong owed a bunch of pictures last year, and began to pay them back slowly after the next year. There are too many clients who have asked him out, spending a lot of money, waiting like this for a year or two, just to get a picture from Tao Xiaodong.
Although Tao Xiaodong's reputation in the circle is not good, it does not prevent him from making money. Scolding is scolding, appreciation is appreciation. Some tattoo artists in the circle scolded Tao Xiaodong for nothing on their personal social accounts. They thought he was impure and that he charged money illegally, but when the class started, they still came with six-figure tuition fees.
This is also the hateful thing about this man, you are tired of this man, you think he is full of money, but you have to admit that his hands are too powerful, his pictures are far above the domestic level , Wherever you get it, you are a master.
"Fill me up, I feel like my color is not fresh anymore." Xia Yuan drove all the way here, and asked Tao Xiaodong to have dinner with him at night, and asked Tao Xiaodong to give him a touch up by the way.
"I'm busy, so I don't have time." Tao Xiaodong has been making the picture for almost a week. It is a Japanese-style full-body picture, from neck to heel. The client would not allow others to reach out, and he would not agree with other tattoo artists in the store who wanted to help draw a line. Such a picture cannot be finished at one time, and some places will scab before it is completed, so I can only do it slowly in several times.
"You can finish it for me when you have time after work, it's such a small piece." Xia Yuan moved a chair and sat next to him.
Tao Xiaodong wore a mask on his face, and he was very focused on his work without raising his head. There are several tattoo artists around to observe, and it is so enjoyable to watch Tao Xiaodong Zhatu.
"It doesn't matter who gets you that picture of yours, and it's not a new picture if you just make up for it." Huang Yida wobbled up the stairs, holding a big teacup while walking and drinking.
"I just want him to come." Xia Yuan didn't change his mind.
"You can't trust our people too much," Huang Yida laughed, "Which one of us here doesn't go out and fight?"
"It's not unbelievable," Xia Yuan shrugged his shoulders and laughed twice, "It's only because he punishes me that I'm ashamed not to pay, and I'm ashamed to change it to another little brother."
Huang Yida "tsk": "What money is not money."
Tao Xiaodong sneered beside him: "It's shameless to pick you up."
Xia Yuan is Tao Xiaodong's good friend for many years. He met him when he was in school and has been with him for more than ten years.
This person is a medical device manufacturer, a businessman, he is very good at doing business, he did not hesitate to go into business after graduating from university, and he has been doing well until now.
"Is Lao Tian on duty today?" Xia Yuan asked beside him.
"I don't know." The machine in Tao Xiaodong's hand was humming all the time. This kind of sound might sound noisy to others, but to a tattoo artist, listening to it makes him feel at ease.
Xia Yuan lowered his head and fiddled with the phone for a long time, then said after a while: "He won't add it, just pick him up later."
Xia Yuan's little picture didn't make up for it in the end. He wanted to drink at night, but Tao Xiaodong didn't make up for him.
"I don't fall in love with your hospital the most, it's too busy." Xia Yuan talked to Tian Yi in the back seat, "Turn a light and we walked for half an hour."
Tian Yi feels at ease today that someone does not need to drive by himself: "You can go through the back door. The back door is not blocked."
"It's blocked, it's red on the map." I have to turn back from the intersection just now, and I can pass three cars by turning the green light once. I've spent the whole day with you two."
"Stop nagging," Tian Yi leaned forward and patted the back of his chair, "You nagged us Xiaodong almost to sleep."
Tao Xiaodong had actually fallen asleep and was in a daze all the time. Tian Yi pushed him, and called him with a "hey", "Why are you so sleepy?"
"Tired." Tao Xiaodong replied with his eyes closed.
"Stayed up late?" Tian Yi asked him.
"Take a picture." Tao Xiaodong still closed his eyes, he knew Tian Yi so well that he didn't need to open his eyes to say hello.
"A star again?"
Tao Xiaodong replied "Yes", and Tian Yi laughed: "I don't know why their stars have to get tattoos at night."
"They're all night owls, they can't wake up during the day," Tao Xiaodong said.
Tao Xiaodong has done tattoos for many celebrities, and several tattoo lovers are very familiar with him. Tao Xiaodong has a wide range of contacts and many friends. Sometimes knowing one person is equivalent to getting to know a circle. His WeChat friends are almost at the limit.
He didn't know the name of Tao Xiaodong Zatu last night. Someone introduced him, but he should have seen it somewhere, and he looked familiar. He is a young student who is not too young. He came directly from the set and took off his makeup at Tao Xiaodong's place. After removing the makeup, his skin condition was very poor.
Tao Xiaodong has a total of three stores. The studio in the original residential building is still there. Most celebrities or clients who don't want to be seen make pictures there. A total of more than 100 square meters, it is usually very expensive to go there to make pictures. This is also one of Tao Xiaodong's scolding points. He said that he didn't have time, but those who made pictures over there could jump in line and cut corners. In the end, he was talking about money.
Some people say that Tao Xiaodong is not aggressive at all, and he treats Qian as his grandson.
Tao Xiaodong doesn't like to talk at work, but he also has to talk when the other party is in pain or too nervous, so as to distract him.
Last night, the niche student said "Teacher Xiaodong", Tao Xiaodong smiled and shook his head afterwards and said, "Don't call me that, it looks like a haircut."
The other party laughed for a long time, and then called "Brother Dong" very affectionately.
Tao Xiaodong looks very handsome and attractive. The light layer of stubble looks tough and casual, the half-length hair is **** on the top of the head, and the solid-color short sleeves are worn on the body, and the muscles on the arms are very prominent. Although he was wearing a mask on his face and kept bowing his head to make pictures, his movements and demeanor when tattooing are very attractive. He is not a young man, he has seen everything, the attitude and eyes of the other party are straightforward, and Tao Xiaodong can understand after just a few glances.
The tattoo was located on the inner side of the arm, and Tao Xiaodong had to pinch his arm Zatu, with his black gloved hand, and after pinching for a while, his arm turned red.
The other party raised his idle hand to touch the back of Tao Xiaodong's hand, and said softly, "Your hands are a bit heavy."
Tao Xiaodong then let go, stood up and said, "Take a break."
When he came back, the other party accepted his attitude and didn't say anything more. Before leaving, do you want to add a WeChat? Tao Xiaodong explained to him the matters needing attention, and he missed it.
A little temptation and tacit understanding between strangers, this kind of thing often happens, and Tao Xiaodong is already very proficient in dealing with these.
Just the three of them tonight, find a place to get together and drink some wine. The old friends let go of those courtesies and extravagances, spit out the black mud and chatted about the unnutritious days. They haven't been together for a long time. In fact, there are quite a few brothers like this, but they didn't make an appointment in advance, and no one else was free.
The place I went to was Xia Yuan's friend's store, which was newly opened, and Xia Yuan said to go to support it.
The place is good, although it is newly opened, there are still many people.
Tao Xiaodong and Tian Yi went in first, Xia Yuan went to say hello to his friend. Tian Yi recorded a short video for his girlfriend, specifically filmed Tao Xiaodong going in, and said while recording, "Daughter-in-law, I'm out drinking, with Xiaodong and Xia Yuan. There is no one else, don't mess around, the report is over."
Tao Xiaodong was having fun by the side.
"You don't have to laugh, you don't understand the fun that only married people have." Tian Yi sent the short video, and his wife sent him an "ok" emoji.
"I really don't understand." Tao Xiaodong nodded, still smiling.
After a while, Tian Yi's wife directly sent a message to Tao Xiaodong: Take him to your place at night, don't let him come back, I'm too lazy to serve him after drinking too much.
Tao Xiaodong threw the phone towards Tian Yi: "People despise you."
Tian Yi used Tao Xiaodong's mobile phone to reply: Received.
They both had a drink before Xia Yuan came up. He didn't come by himself, but he brought someone up next to him.
"What a coincidence, I met a junior." Xia Yuan looked very happy, and glanced at the person in the white shirt next to him, "Let me introduce to you, this is... oh yes, you two should know each other, Lao Tian, Can't remember?"
Tian Yi looked at the very temperamental young man next to Xia Yuan, was a little surprised, smiled and said: "Of course I remember, I haven't seen you for a long time."
Tao Xiaodong didn't have much impression, he had never seen it, and he didn't know it.
Xia Yuan introduced them, and Tian Yi smiled beside him and said, "Tangning, don't you remember? Xia Yuan often talked about it back then."
He had a little impression of Tao Xiaodong when he said that. At that time, Xia Yuan would never bend, thinking about a junior all day long. Later, before he could figure it out, he was chased away, and Xia Yuan was always upset about this.
Later, Xia Yuan was completely bent, and the prodigal son in love never had such an innocent time. He drank wine to reminisce about the past and always remembered that he had a white moonlight back then.
He talked about it too many times, and Tao Xiaodong did remember such a thing.
Tao Xiaodong stretched out his hand: "Tao Xiaodong."
The other party also reached out to shake his hand. His palm was a little cold, and he smiled and said, "Tangning."
