MTL - Wildfire-Chapter 44

This mouth touch is really subtle, or it may be because of the subtlety that the lips are only lightly pressed, so no one feels uncomfortable. It didn't even seem to have happened at all, what to do, neither the eyes nor the conversation seemed like something intimate had just been done.

Step by step is a very comfortable process, as it should be.

Tao Xiaodong was really aggressive last time and pressed the fast forward button, which was still fast for them at that time. Fast so uncomfortable, so uncomfortable.

Now living together and feeling every day, I can clearly feel that Tang Suoyan is continuously building the bridge between them at a not fast but comfortable speed. The progress is in his hands. Tao Xiaodong will sink if he is fast, and he will take it if he is slow.

In this way, their relationship becomes very stable, and only when it is stable can it last for a long time.

If two people are out of control in a relationship, although it will be a dry fire at the beginning, the missing part will have to be made up sooner or later. When enthusiasm fades and rationality returns, the foundation that has been neglected should be re-grounded.

Tao Xiaodong himself is also a rationalist, but his rationality has been honed in the social circle and business field over the years, and if he is not rational, he will suffer. The more I get in touch with him, the more I find that Tang Suoyan's rationality and calmness are deep in his bones. He is born with such a person, calm and wise. Being around him makes one feel at ease.

During this period of time, Tao Xiaodong was so steadfast that his younger brother didn't care.

Tao Huainan called him on Christmas Eve and said, "Brother! Happy Christmas Eve, you and Dr. Tang!"

Tao Xiaodong was sitting on the sofa eating fruit, when he heard this he asked in confusion, "Is it Christmas Eve?"

"Yes!" Tao Huainan intentionally only said the last word, and laughed after finishing speaking, "Brother, have you forgotten us?"

Tao Xiaodong said "um": "I forgot all about it."

"Okay!" Tao Huainan seemed to be in a good mood, and his tone was always raised, "Just be happy!"

"I think you are quite happy." Tao Xiaodong said to him.

"I'm okay, I'm mainly excited when I think that you're going to have a date soon!" Tao Huainan asked him after finishing speaking, "Is it soon or already?"

Tao Xiaodong is too lazy to take the phone while eating fruit, he only has one hand, so during this time he often answers the phone on speakerphone. Tang Suoyan was sitting next to him and was eating some fruit. As soon as Tao Huainan's words came out, Tao Xiaodong wanted to turn off the speakerphone before it was too late. Anyway, there is no need to close it, the two looked at each other, and Tao Xiaodong said, "It's about the same."

"About what?" Tao Huainan asked with a hum.

Tao Xiaodong said again: "They are almost the same."

Tao Huainan pushed his brother to Dr. Tang, feeling extremely relieved. When he was young and ignorant, he hoped that his brother would never get married or fall in love. He hoped that his brother would belong to him alone. Later, when I understood the matter, I began to hope that his brother would be himself, have someone he likes, and have a good life.

In the past few years, Tao Huainan had always hoped that his brother could find a good person to settle down with, but his brother never seemed to have such thoughts. Now that it finally happened, Tao Huainan hoped that both of them would be better than anyone else.

Tao Xiaodong chatted with him for a while, and heard that Chi Cheng was asking Tao Huainan to turn on the air conditioner. Tao Huainan doesn't like the air conditioner and thinks it's dry, so he always turns it off secretly. The body is not so good, and it is easy to catch a cold when it is cold. Chi Cheng couldn't find the remote control, so he told him not to hide it.

Tao Xiaodong said, "Both of you pack up and go to bed quickly, so Brother Ku doesn't study too late."

Tao Huainan said yes, then said good night to his brother, and hung up the phone.

"Xiao Nan is sensible." Tang Suoyan said to him, "You took him well."

"He always thinks a lot," Tao Xiaodong said, thinking of Tao Huainan, his tone was very gentle, "He is too sensitive in his heart, sometimes I think he is like a small animal or something, close to his own people, and wary of others."

Tang Suoyan tapped next to the eyes with his bent index finger knuckles: "Because of it."

"Yeah." Tao Xiaodong nodded, "I'm scared."

Tang Suoyan knew Tao Huainan's situation very well, but his beautiful eyes were full of regrets. Tang Suoyan told Tao Xiaodong: "Sooner or later there will be a clinical plan, and scientific research has been making progress, but it still takes time."

There are also plans now, but the effect is not obvious, and it can only be slowed down. Tao Xiaodong already knew this all too well. He turned to look at Tang Suoyan, nodded and said, "Then I'll wait for Dr. Tang to cure my brother."

This remark was also a bit half-joking, Tang Suoyan said: "It's also my brother."

Tao Xiaodong blinked, and the corners of his eyes were soft when he smiled.

Every year, people in the Christmas shop have to go out to play wild. There are so many people up and down, most of them are young people, and it's really annoying to make a fuss. Tao Xiaodong's hands were like this, he couldn't drink, so he just took a few sips to cheer up the atmosphere.

Tang Suoyan was also there, and the others didn't dare to make trouble with him. No matter how many times they met, they felt that this man had a fairy air, and it seemed disrespectful if he joked too much. So the two of them went back after eating, leaving space for them so as not to let them go. Rhubarb can't go, he has to accompany these little ancestors.

The Christmas atmosphere on the street is very strong and beaming.

Tao Xiaodong said: "When I was in college, I was in the Academy of Fine Arts, and Tian Yi was in your medical school. At Christmas, he, me, and Lao Xia went to the bar. That was the first time I went to the bar. In my freshman year winter."

Just passing by a bar, Tao Xiaodong suddenly remembered what happened more than ten years ago when he saw it.

"I was still poor at the time, and the two of them were just ordinary students. The three of us just joined in the fun anyway. Two little bees came, they were pretty, and they started drinking after sitting down. We thought they were going to share a table, Thinking it was trying to hang us, the idiots Lao Xia and Tian Yi were quite enthusiastic, so they followed suit. I dare not drink, I have to get them away if they drink too much."

Tao Xiaodong still wanted to laugh when he thought about it at that time, it was so stupid. He went on to say: "Later, someone drank both of them almost, stood up and left, and went to the next table. Only then did we know that the wine they both drank was ours. The person is a little bee in the store, who specializes in coaxing People drink and earn a commission."

Tang Suoyan has never been to bars at all, so he doesn't know much about these things. He also smiled when he heard Tao Xiaodong say.

"When I paid the bill, I drank more than 2,000 yuan. At that time, more than 2,000 yuan was quite solid. I was so poor that I definitely couldn't afford it. Besides, I didn't drink and I didn't give it. I picked it up."

Tang Suoyan asked, "Who gave it in the end?"

"Where there is money to give, those two stupid sons refused to accept it, so they only drank half of it. Why should they let others drink. I don't care anyway. I turned around and left after hearing more than two thousand."

He leaned on the back of his chair and laughed twice: "The two of them jumped down from the bathroom on the second floor and ran away, because they were worried about this for a long time, and they were guilty of guilt, afraid that they would find your school."

Tang Suoyan also laughed in a low voice, and then asked him, "Aren't you afraid?"

"No, I'm from the Academy of Fine Arts, and I'm not as afraid of shame as they are. You are all high-achieving students, so don't bother to study if you go to school."

Tao Xiaodong wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by the phone ringing.

Tang Suoyan's mobile phone was placed in the middle. He drove the car and asked Tao Xiaodong, "Who?"

For some reason, Tao Xiaodong already had a premonition of who he was before looking at him. Tao Xiaodong glanced at the screen and followed the words: "Tangning."

Tang Suoyan said after two seconds: "Leave it alone."

The phone kept ringing in Tao Xiaodong's hand. Tao Xiaodong looked at Tangning's name and said, "It doesn't look good."

Tang Suoyan glanced at him, and Tao Xiaodong said, "What if something happens."

Tang Suoyan answered without saying a word, and Tao Xiaodong would definitely not answer it privately. After all, this is Tang Suoyan's mobile phone.

When the mobile phone is quiet, the car is also quite quiet and a little stuffy.

But this silence didn't last long, and the phone rang again soon.

Tang Suo didn't answer, Tao Xiaodong kept holding the phone, which made his palms numb.

In fact, until now, Tao Xiaodong didn't know what Tangning wanted. He approached himself and Tang Suoyan, but he didn't say anything. He didn't want Tang Suoyan to be with other people, that's for sure, but he was very restrained from the beginning to the end, except for Tang Suoyan's birthday. Outside of that day, he didn't lose control or act too aggressively.

He is quite conflicted.

The only explanation Tao Xiaodong could think of was that he wanted to redeem him, but couldn't let go of his arrogant self-esteem.

When the bell rang for the third time, Tao Xiaodong said, "Brother Yan, what if something really happens?"

Tao Xiaodong thinks a lot. He has a younger brother who needs to be worried all the year round. He always has to consider various possible situations. His thinking has almost been finalized. Tangning lived alone, if something happened to him, Tang Suoyan would be the first person he would call for help. There are too many unpredictable things in life, Tao Xiaodong dare not let him call like this.

Tang Suoyan said: "I didn't answer because I was afraid of what you would listen to. I didn't avoid you on purpose. It's not appropriate."

"I know." Tao Xiaodong said, "I don't care about this, take it? I'm a little worried."

Tang Suoyan looked at him, and Tao Xiaodong swiped his finger to connect. He turned on the speakerphone, and passed the phone to Tang Suoyan.

Tangning called out "Brother Yan".

Tang Suoyan asked, "What's wrong?"

His tone was quite calm, Tangning asked him, "Where are you?"

Tang Suo said, "Outside."

Tangning asked, "You yourself?"

Tang Suo said no, and asked him what's the matter.

Tangning suddenly said something that didn't sound like much at first glance but was actually very straightforward, four simple words: "...I regret it."

Tao Xiaodong turned his head and looked out the window, the Christmas lights illuminated the night very brightly.

It was rare for Tangning to have such straightforward words. Tang Suoyan didn't ask him what he regretted, but just said: "Don't regret it, just move on."

After saying this, he took the phone from Tao Xiaodong and hung up.

"So I don't want to meet you in front of you." Tang Suoyan said in a deep voice, "No matter what he says, it's not appropriate for you to listen."

Tao Xiaodong smiled and said, "It's all right."

Tang Suoyan turned the car into the community, and Tao Xiaodong said softly, "Why are you only regretting it now."

Tang Suoyan asked him: "Do you still hope that he will regret it sooner?"

"I don't want it." After Tao Xiaodong finished speaking, he laughed first, "I won't pretend anymore, I'm afraid that he will regret it now. Before I eat it, I'm just greedy, and after I eat it, I'm afraid that others will take it away from me."

"What are you eating?" Tang Suoyan also smiled slightly.

Tao Xiaodong said in his heart that I know what it's like for you to be nice to people, and I have tasted it.

That's why he really didn't understand Tangning, "Doctor Tang actually regretted it until now."

Tang Suoyan stopped the car and unbuckled his seat belt. Turned off the fire, and said something to Tao Xiaodong: "No one can take it away, keep it for yourself."

After he finished talking, Tao Xiaodong got out of the car after he realized it, caught up with Tang Suoyan, and took his hand directly. Tang Suoyan laughed at himself and said: "Others are too lazy to ask for it, so you are afraid of stealing and robbing."

Tao Xiaodong held his hand tightly: "Whoever is too lazy to ask for it is too arrogant. Anyway, I want it."

Tang Suoyan said: "Got it. I really want it, you said it."
