Chapter 53
Su Xingyao followed the direction Xu Huan left and searched for a long time.
But there were too many people at the scene, and there were several large exhibition halls where Xu Huan disappeared.
Su Xingyao couldn't find the direction, so she waited there for a while, but still didn't see Xu Huan, so she had no choice but to leave.
On the way back, he was still thinking about this matter.
After thinking it over carefully, Su Xingyao still felt that she really wanted to know the story that the other party was about to shoot, so she sent a message to Hermann, asking him to help her find Xu Huan's contact information.
However, after Su Xingyao sent the message, Hermann, who usually replied to his messages within seconds, did not respond even after more than ten minutes.
Guessing that the other party was probably still busy, Su Xingyao exited the chat box with him.
Only after he exited did he realize that he had actually missed a message.
This message was mixed in with various news pushes and subscription information, and he didn't notice it because he was thinking about Xu Huan.
Now, after taking a closer look at the WeChat interface, he realized that this was a message from Lu Jiuxu.
Mr. Lu: Will you come back for dinner tonight?
The moment Su Xingyao saw the message, she replied to the other party.
Su Maomao: Back
Su Maomao: I'm on my way
As soon as Su Xingyao sent the message, she saw the message [The other party is typing...] in the chat box.
Seeing Lu Jiuxu reply to her online immediately, Su Xingyao couldn't help but think of it.
It seems that every time I send a message to the other party, I get a reply immediately.
No matter what time it is or what the other person is doing at the time, he will get a response.
Su Xingyao was thinking about this when she saw the words [The other party is typing...] on the chat box suddenly disappeared.
?
The other party clearly spent a long time typing, but in the end the message was not sent.
Su Xingyao was just about to type a question when she saw a few words reappear in front of her.
Just as he waited again, the words disappeared again.
Appear and disappear, disappear and appear.
After going back and forth like this for several times, Lu Jiuxu finally threw a word over.
Mr. Lu: OK
Su Xingyao originally thought that the other party had something important to tell her, so it took so long to edit.
The result is this?
It doesn't seem like it takes so long to type a word?
But the information was deleted and modified so many times, there must be something else he wanted to say.
Su Xingyao felt something inexplicably and immediately looked up at the time when Lu Jiuxu’s last message was sent.
My goodness, it’s been more than eight hours since now…
But eight hours ago, he was having a lively conversation with Hermann.
Afterwards I went to the film festival and watched the whole afternoon.
He actually took out his cell phone during this period, but he didn't even notice that Lu Jiuxu had contacted him!
The other party always replies to my messages within seconds.
But it took me such a long time to reply to the other party's message.
Although there are some objective reasons that lead to this result.
But thinking from another perspective, Su Xingyao felt that she was indeed going too far as a friend.
A feeling of guilt inexplicably surged into her heart, and Su Xingyao immediately explained to the other party.
Su Maomao: There were too many push notifications before, so I didn’t notice it.
Su Maomao: Sorry QAQ
Su Maomao: Maomao holding face.jpg
Su Maomao: Maomao kneeling on the ground.jpg
In order to show his sincere remorse, Su Xingyao added another promise.
Su Maomao: I pinned your information to the top
Su Maomao: I will definitely be able to see it first in the future
Having said this, Su Xingyao did just that.
After pinning Lu Jiuxu's message, he also sent the other party a screenshot of Lu Jiuxu's pinned message.
After sending the screenshot, there was no response from the other party.
After several seconds, he slowly sent a [? ].
???
Su Xingyao didn’t quite understand the meaning of the question mark.
But soon, the other party gave him an answer.
Mr. Lu: So the note I left with you was this
As soon as this message was sent, Lu Jiuxu sent back the screenshot that Su Xingyao had just sent.
But the picture he sent was a little different from the previous ones.
Lu Jiuxu specially circled the three words "Mr. Lu" that Su Xingyao had noted to him with a bright red bold line.
…
This unexpected development and strange focus...
Since the other party was not satisfied, Su Xingyao also tried to improve with a good attitude.
Su Maomao: Then I'll change one
Mr. Lu: OK
Lu Jiuxu replied with the same word.
But this time, Su Xingyao felt that the other party's emotions were obviously different from before.
This time the result is good, so I should be slightly satisfied?
Clicking on the WeChat profile, Su Xingyao's fingers deleted and modified the notes column.
But after deleting and revising for a long time, he still couldn't think of a suitable remark.
Finding that he really couldn't think of anything, he returned to their chat interface.
They've already started asking questions.
Mr. Lu: What was changed?
Su Xingyao was too embarrassed to reply and could only bite the bullet and ask the other party back.
Su Maomao: What is the note you gave me?
Su Maomao: Can I take a look?
Su Xingyao's original plan was to refer to the note style that Lu Jiuxu gave him and change the note name to a similar one according to his preferences.
But as soon as he finished asking this question, the other party quickly threw a new screenshot at him.
It's like it was prepared long ago.
What Lu Jiuxu sent was his WeChat profile interface.
His WeChat nickname sssssu has the three characters [Su Maomao] in his nickname.
Seeing these three familiar words, Su Xingyao had a thought that this was exactly what he was thinking.
Referring to the style of these three words, Su Xingyao was hesitating whether to change Lu Jiuxu's nickname to [Lu Dog], but suddenly noticed the difference in this interface.
In the screenshot of the interface taken by the other party, there is an extremely eye-catching yellow star in the upper right corner opposite the nickname!
Su Xingyao usually doesn’t pay much attention to these functions of WeChat, and even the WeChat notes are very common last name + first name.
As for functions like pinning, he never even used them before.
The first pinned post today is again for Lu Jiuxu.
At first, Su Xingyao didn’t know what this star was, so he logged out and searched on Baidu.
Later, he successfully learned about the concept of "Star Friends" through Baidu.
After seeing the five-pointed star that the other party marked on himself.
Su Xingyao silently opened Lu Jiuxu's profile, found the three dots in the upper right corner, and tapped them lightly with her fingertips...
Two seconds later, a bright yellow five-pointed star appeared on Lu Jiuxu's WeChat message page for Su Xingyao.
…
Half an hour later, Su Xingyao returned home.
A table full of sumptuous dishes had been set and Lu Jiuxu was waiting for him.
Aunt Zhang can’t eat too late at night because she has already eaten.
After washing her hands, Su Xingyao had dinner with Lu Jiuxu.
"Did you meet anyone important today?"
After dinner, Lu Jiuxu's voice became lazy.
But the tone of his voice was much lower than usual.
Su Xingyao didn't understand, "What?"
The other person lowered his eyes and his gaze fell on Su Xingyao's mobile phone interface.
"You've checked your phone twelve times since you got back."
Such precise numbers came out of the other party's mouth, and Su Xingyao looked at the other party.
There was no special expression on Lu Jiuxu's face, but Su Xingyao felt that he didn't seem very happy. He was clearly playing the game, but he looked uninterested.
Although she didn't know why he was like this, Su Xingyao still explained the reason to him.
"I'm waiting for my friend to reply to my message. I asked him for a favor."
Later, Su Xingyao told Lu Jiuxu about her meeting with Xu Huan today and how she had asked Hermann to contact him.
"His short feature films are quite interesting. If the new movie script is good, I would like to try to invest in him."
Su Xingyao frowned regretfully after saying this, "But he ran too fast, I couldn't find him after searching for a long time..."
"So in the end I had to ask Herman to help me try to contact him."
After Su Xingyao finished speaking, she looked at Lu Jiuxu with a smile.
He originally thought the other party would say something.
But unexpectedly, the person who always looked at him gently said nothing after hearing these words, but looked out the window in a rare gesture.
I didn't even know when he quit the game.
Su Xingyao didn't know what Lu Jiuxu was thinking, but she knew when to stop talking.
He looked at the other person.
Feeling his gaze, the other party soon looked at him as well.
Their eyes met in the air, and Lu Jiuxu spoke seriously for once.
"Su-mao-mao."
The man's handsome eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and he sighed helplessly.
"Why don't you try to think of me first?"
He was always a proud man, but this time there was a hint of helplessness and grievance in his tone.
Su Xingyao was speechless when asked, he stared at the other party blankly.
"Looking for you...what?"
Su Xingyao was a little confused, but after saying these four words, she seemed to suddenly understand.
Lu Jiuxu's words made me try to think of him first. Was he telling me that when I encounter any difficulties, I can be the first one to ask him for help?
Thinking of this, Su Xingyao felt as if something had stabbed her in the heart, and her heart tightened slightly.
He has almost always lived independently since he was a child, and whenever he encounters a problem, he always thinks of solving it by himself first.
He would only try to ask for help when he really couldn't handle the problem.
But after his sister passed away, over the years, the only person he could turn to for help without hesitation was his roommate.
Because they are the people closest to you.
However, Lu Jiuxu's words just now woke Su Xingyao up.
He lowered his head and asked himself.
Is Lu Jiuxu a close person to me?
Su Xingyao squeezed her palms.
Of course.
He knew the answer better than anyone else.
Lu Jiuxu is already one of the few people in this world who is most serious and attentive to himself.
But Su Xingyao was very clear that this matter was actually not about whether she was close to Lu Jiuxu or not.
Realizing that the other party seemed to have misunderstood her, Su Xingyao spoke to him eagerly for the first time to explain the reason.
“I just thought that since Herman was at the film festival, it might be easier for him to find someone given his status as a director.”
After hearing this explanation, the expression on Lu Jiuxu's face did not improve noticeably.
Su Xingyao paused and smiled gently.
He leaned forward slightly, getting closer to Lu Jiuxu.
Beautiful eyes sparkling.
At this moment, Su Xingyao's light-colored pupils only contained the shadow of Lu Jiuxu.
He asked the other party gently, "Then Mr. Lu, could you please help me find his contact information?"
The beautiful fox eyes curved and continued to ask in a low voice, "Okay?"
Soft and gentle words reached my ears.
Lu Jiuxu's depressed mood which had been felt for the entire day was soothed away just like that.
The person in front of me is really good at acting like a spoiled child!
The fingers holding the phone were much stronger than usual.
After trying his best to suppress the dark thoughts in his heart, Lu Jiuxu, who was easily coaxed, finally returned to his usual self.
"What's his name?"
Noticing that Lu Jiuxu didn't seem to be angry anymore, Su Xingyao immediately told him the other person's name.
"Xu Huan."
Lu Jiuxu nodded, as if he had taken note of it.
But then he raised his eyelids and asked, "Which two words?"
Thinking of the possibility of homophones, Su Xingyao prepared to describe it more clearly to the other party.
But before he opened his mouth, he suddenly saw Lu Jiuxu open his palm towards him.
The man sitting opposite her didn't say anything, but just raised his chin slightly, indicating that Su Xingyao could continue.
It took Su Xingyao two seconds to react and finally understand.
Lu Jiuxu asked him to write his name on the palm of his hand.
His brain was working very slowly at this moment, and Su Xingyao was easily led by the other party. He obediently followed his ideas and stretched out his right index finger.
He lowered his eyes and carefully wrote Xu Huan's name on the other person's palm, stroke by stroke.
The feeling of fingertips and palms touching each other is wonderful.
Although it was clearly written on Lu Jiuxu's hand, Su Xingyao felt as if her heart was numb as well.
He looked up at Lu Jiuxu.
The other party was also looking at him.
For some reason, what Lance said during the day suddenly popped into Su Xingyao's mind.
The three words "dog man" are really too offensive to the person in front of me.
Su Xingyao quickly withdrew her gaze and fingertips.
"Mr. Lu, just these two words."
After finishing writing, Su Xingyao suddenly reacted.
These two characters are very commonly used and should not have the same pronunciation as other characters.
When this request was made, Lu Jiuxu acted as if nothing had happened. He nodded lightly and picked up his phone to start typing.
Su Xingyao didn't know the specific content of his message, but she knew that he must be asking someone to help him find Xu Huan's contact information.
He was thinking about it when suddenly Lu Zhiyun's voice jumped out.
Su Xingyao looked towards Lu Jiuxu and found that it was Lu Zhiyun who called him.
"Brother, there's a level in the game your company plays that I just can't pass. Xiao Liu said you can pass it with your eyes closed. Can you help me?"
After stating his purpose, Lu Zhiyun began to act coquettishly, cutely, and pesteringly.
However, no matter how he kowtowed on the phone, Lu Jiuxu on the other end of the phone didn't even blink.
Finally, he threw out two words coldly.
"No."
After Lu Jiuxu hung up the phone, Su Xingyao asked him curiously, "What game?"
Although Lu Zhiyun's begging was ruthlessly rejected by Lu Jiuxu.
But it successfully aroused Su Xingyao's curiosity.
"The Kingdom of Dreams"
After casually saying the name of the game, Lu Jiuxu threw a software to Su Xingyao.
Looking at the information that popped up on the top interface, Su Xingyao clicked download without thinking and started the installation.
A low chuckle filled the air.
"You installed it right away. Aren't you afraid that I'll throw a virus at you?"
"You won't." Su Xingyao also laughed and glanced down at the software that had been installed 15 percent.
"But if you send it to me, I will install it even if it is a virus."
There was a moment of silence in the air.
Su Xingyao looked up in confusion, but saw Lu Jiuxu's lips slightly raised.
Then the other party said, "It was launched the day before yesterday. Could you please help our company evaluate it, Mr. Su?"
The game company is just an inconspicuous subsidiary of the Lu Group.
Su Xingyao actually didn’t quite understand why Lu Jiuxu was so interested in this game.
But because the game belonged to Lu Jiuxu, and the other party asked her to help review it, Su Xingyao reviewed it particularly seriously.
After the company's internal version was installed, Su Xingyao and Lu Jiuxu played a few simple games together to familiarize themselves with the game.
After giving Lu Jiuxu feedback on his gaming experience while playing, during the last round, Lu Jiuxu took the initiative to speak.
"A new level was added today, but the official version hasn't been released yet. Su Maomao, do you want to play it first?"
"OK!"
Su Xingyao thought this kind of casual game was quite interesting when she tried it just now. Now that she heard that she could even play the new levels first, she was naturally very happy.
In the team room for two people, Lu Jiuxu controlled the screen and selected a map.
Soon the scene jumped, and Su Xingyao's cute little man and Lu Jiuxu came to a beautiful island together.
The mission of this level is to cross the island and dig out the treasure.
The map was very beautiful and warm, but after Su Xingyao started to challenge it, she found that it was really difficult.
When they reached the third level and jumped over the shark area, Su Xingyao stood opposite the sea, looking at Lu Jiuxu who successfully landed on the shore easily in one go and was able to climb up, and felt a surge of envy and jealousy in her heart.
After trying more than ten times and finding that he still couldn't get through, Su Xingyao took a deep breath helplessly.
No wonder Lu Zhiyun came to Lu Jiuxu for help.
It’s really amazing.
After the fifteenth attempt, I still couldn't get through.
The man beside him who had been patiently teaching him asked him with a smile, "Su Maomao, do you want me to help you?"
Su Xingyao was puzzled, "Weren't you teaching me just now?"
The man's eyes curled up slightly, and after a soft hum, he moved his fingers slightly.
“It could be the other way, too.”
Su Xingyao lowered her head when she heard this, and found that her little man was actually being carried like a princess by Lu Jiuxu's little man.
Then the two little men jumped back and forth flexibly on the sea.
“It’s actually possible!”
Seeing his little man being held by the other party and easily jumping to the other side, Su Xingyao's eyes were filled with obvious surprise and joy.
With Lu Jiuxu's help this time, Su Xingyao would no longer have trouble getting through the places she was stuck in the future, and would simply let Lu Jiuxu pick her up.
Not long after, the two of them climbed a very, very long ladder together and finally arrived at the sky city on the island.
Su Xingyao controlled the little man to walk back and forth at the highest point of the sky city.
"Where is the treasure hidden?"
As soon as Su Xingyao finished speaking, the little man touched a button.
Then countless fireworks rose up.
The fireworks in the game will change various colors and shapes in the sky.
Finally slowly start to form letters.
m……e……i……
Su Xingyao waited quietly for the final answer.
After more than ten seconds, all the letters spelled out two words.
“My genius.”
Su Xingyao read out these two words and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Why do these words look familiar?
After exiting the level, Su Xingyao didn't play anymore.
It was getting a little late, so he went back to his room to wash up and go to bed.
After taking a shower, he found that Lu Jiuxu had sent Xu Huan's number and personal information to his WeChat ten minutes ago.
He originally thought it would take a lot of time to find Xu Huan.
But I didn't expect Lu Jiuxu to be so efficient.
After Su Xingyao got the number, she wanted to call the other party right away.
But considering that it was a bit late and I was afraid of disturbing the other party, I tried to add the other party on WeChat first and prepare to find a suitable time to call tomorrow.
After sending a request to add Xu Huan, Su Xingyao glanced at his WeChat interface.
Then I found a new like.
Su Xingyao, who couldn't bear to see any alerts on her phone, immediately clicked on it and deleted the little 1.
The latest person to like his post was Lu Jiuxu.
When Su Xingyao met Hermann this morning, the two took a photo together.
Herman in the photo looked like a giant cat, smiling and hugging Su Xingyao's shoulders with one hand.
On Su Xingyao's other shoulder, the other person's thin chin rested gently.
The two haven't seen each other for a long time, so Su Xingyao posted this photo in groups.
This was the one that Lu Jiuxu specifically liked.
