Chapter 30
Someone called them to sing. When Pei Zhi was asked, he stood there indifferently. The moment he looked down at Xie Ning, the coldness between his brows melted instantly, and he inexplicably revealed a bit of... obedience?
Xie Ning: "Let's go."
He had been listening to Gu Nian and Chen Xi muttering for a long time.
Although he didn't like too noisy environments, if the room was big enough, it shouldn't be too noisy, right?
Someone was singing in the room, singing old love songs with a smoky voice, which was very pleasant to the ears. The equipment here is good and the sound quality is clear. The moment Xie Ning pushed the door and walked in, she thought she had come to a small concert.
There was no strange smell, and the space was large, so it seemed that the surroundings were not so noisy. There were not too many classmates coming and going, and most of them were sitting in scattered places.
It was better than Xie Ning had imagined.
Xie Ning found a corner seat. He didn't like the center of the crowd. Pei Zhi took off his coat and spread it on the sofa before he sat down.
Others looked at him in surprise, and Pei Zhi explained unnecessarily: "I have a mysophobia."
Although Pei Zhi said that he had a mysophobia, people who knew a little bit knew that he did it for Xie Ning.
No one asked more questions about this issue. They were not familiar with Pei Zhi. It was okay to joke, but you had to consider the person.
If you joke with Pei Zhi, Pei Zhi might not respond, and he might even give you a cold shoulder, making the atmosphere very awkward.
Xie Ning and Pei Zhi were not talkative, so this table was particularly quiet in contrast.
Someone wanted to liven up the atmosphere: "Wow, you two have such a good relationship. You have the same phone and phone case."
He was surprised to find out, "Scarves too."
Pei Zhi said "hmm" casually.
He had a cold attitude and obviously didn't want to pay attention to the other party.
But he didn't know if it was Xie Ning's illusion, he always felt that Pei Zhi seemed very happy now, as if his idea of showing off something inadvertently came true, and even his eyebrows relaxed a lot.
"Can I add WeChat?" A girl next to Xie Ning slowly approached, and she whispered, "We are in the same class, my name is..."
Xie Ning: "Lin Xinqian?"
Lin Xinqian was stunned for a moment, then said happily: "You know my name?!"
Xie Ning: "We have been in the same class for our major courses."
They have been in class together, and the teacher often calls the roll, plus the roll call group chat contains the notes and student numbers of each classmate. Even if Xie Ning doesn't communicate with others, she will know who her classmates are.
Lin Xinqian was really surprised. She always thought that Xie Ning was the kind of person who didn't care about the people around her, and maybe Xie Ning didn't even know that they were classmates in the same class.
Many people would slack off and look at their mobile phones in class, but Xie Ning wouldn't. He always listened carefully, took notes, or thought. During breaks, other classmates went to the convenience store to buy food or catch up on sleep, but he still sat in his seat and patiently sorted out the knowledge points.
Xie Ning can really go a whole morning without looking at his mobile phone.
Lin Xinqian always thought that Xie Ning must be difficult to get along with, but after chatting for a few sentences, she found that it was not the case. Xie Ning is very polite, listens carefully, and never interrupts. She feels very comfortable chatting with Xie Ning.
Because they were in the same class and had the same major, it was difficult for them not to talk about their professional work. Xie Ning had solid professional knowledge. He had participated in many competitions and watched many international exhibitions since he was a child. Some of the design concepts he talked about also made Lin Xinqian's eyes light up.
Lin Xinqian: "Wow, what you said is similar to what Sini said! You should know her, right? You must know..."
She was a little embarrassed. How could Xie Ning not know who Sini is? Or maybe it was that people in their profession could not not know Sini.
Sini is a well-known fashion designer. She has been very inspiring throughout her life. She and her husband started working hard in a small county town, and their alma mater is their school. She did not follow the design trends in the country at that time, but was brave enough to create a new style. Now she is opening a studio abroad and is also a professor in a foreign university.
Pei Zhi just listened to their chat and wanted to interrupt, but they were talking about professional matters and he only understood half of what they were talking about.
He felt a little unhappy. Under the table, he stretched out his hand to hook Xie Ning's fingers, rubbing Xie Ning's fingertips again and again, pinching them from time to time as if he was bored.
This action was especially like a big dog that tried to bite its owner's trousers and feet to attract its owner's attention after being ignored.
Xie Ning turned her head and looked at Pei Zhi with a confused expression. Pei Zhi was very innocent. He came closer and said, "Do you like it?"
Xie Ning: "Huh?"
There were people singing around, and he didn't hear clearly.
Pei Zhi could only follow closely. He stretched out his hand to lift Xie Ning's hair from her temples, and his chest almost touched Xie Ning's shoulders. He said, "Do you want her autographed photo?"
It turned out to be this. Xie Ning laughed: "No, I have a lot."
Pei Zhi: "But I didn't give them to her."
In some ways, Pei Zhi always seems very childish. But Xie Ning really doesn't need this: "I really don't need Sini's autographed photo. I can see her anytime I want."
Pei Zhi: "Do you know her?"
"Yes." Xie Ning said, "She is my mother."
Pei Zhi looked up in surprise.
Sini is Xie Yan, Xie Ning's mother. When Xie Yan took this English name, Xie Ning had just been born. At that time, she had an inspiration because of Xie Ning. Later, she won a very valuable award for this work. It was this award that became a turning point in her career.
She gave herself the English name Sini. Sini, when pronounced, carries both Xie Yan's surname and a part of "Ning". This is a name full of love and remembrance.
Lin Xinqian said: "Sini seems to have a son, but I don't know the specific information. I don't know if he inherited her talent."
"He must be abroad, right? Maybe she brought him up personally. After all, the art atmosphere abroad is better, so it's normal that there is no news in China."
"..."
Xie Ning has never said this to the outside world. He never talks about his family with others, and he doesn't arouse pride or complacency.
Pei Zhi was a little curious: "Why don't you go abroad to study?"
Xie Ning's parents are both abroad, and they are successful in their careers and have no financial problems. Pei Zhi can't think of a reason why Xie Ning doesn't go abroad.
"This is my dream school." Xie Ning said, "It's also my parents' alma mater."
Xie Ning wanted to come to this school since he was a child. As far as he can remember, his parents were often invited to give speeches at his alma mater, and he would go with them.
Perhaps because he was influenced by his parents since
he was a child, he was full of longing for this school, and he did not change his mind until he grew up. "Gold shines wherever it is." Under the colorful lights, Pei Zhi sat next to Xie Ning, and under the table, he hooked Xie Ning's fingers with his hand. Xie Ning's face was illuminated by the hazy lights with a gorgeous color. He said, "You are also dazzling now."
They were chatting. But the distance was very close, as if it had long exceeded the normal social scale.
With shoulders against arms, Pei Zhi only needed to move a little more to hold Xie Ning's hand, but he didn't dare.
He only dared to rub Xie Ning's fingers with his fingers secretly.
The hands resting on the seats were close together, fingers rubbing against fingers, the skin touching each other was less than two square centimeters, but it made the whole body warm.
Pei Zhi looked satisfied. Suddenly, he lowered his head to look at Xie Ning and said, "I really want to."
The music was loud, covering Pei Zhi's voice. Xie Ning saw that Pei Zhi's eyes were so serious, she thought Pei Zhi had something to say. So she raised her chin and put her ear over.
[I really want to hold your hand.]
[But my wife said no, others will talk nonsense.]
[I can't let others talk about my wife.]
[It's enough to rub my wife's fingers secretly. Happy^0^.]
[Wife, wife, am I very obedient? Pei Zhi
's eyebrows seemed to be a little proud and complacent. If Xie Ning had not been able to hear Pei Zhi's inner voice, he would definitely not have noticed this subtle expression.
Xie Ning found it a little funny. It was a little hot in the room, and his palms were sweating. He said, "I'm going to the bathroom to wash my hands."
The bathroom environment was clean, and there was fragrance near the sink. No matter from which angle you look at it, this KTV is not like an ordinary KTV, but more like a comprehensive entertainment venue.
The decoration is elegant and not tacky, the service is in place, and the hygiene is also very clean.
The sound of running water from the faucet rang, and slender white fingers shuttled through the transparent water line. Xie Ning concentrated on washing his hands and turned off the faucet. As soon as he looked up, he saw Pei Zhi behind him in the mirror.
When did Pei Zhi come?
As soon as Xie Ning turned around, Pei Zhi hugged him head-on. Pei Zhi was very tall, and although he deliberately bent down and lowered his head, there was still a significant height difference between them.
And such a tall and strong man was now rubbing his head against his neck like a giant dog. The
moist and hot breath and the high nose bridge fell on the skin, causing a small patch of goose bumps, and the satisfaction brought by skin hunger made his scalp numb instantly.
Xie Ning panted lightly, and he almost couldn't stand steadily. He wanted to push Pei Zhi away, but his hands were still wet. He tried his best to keep his balance: "Pei Zhi, my hands are still wet."
"It's wet." Pei Zhi tilted his head, and his slightly cool thin lips rubbed the sensitive earlobe lightly, and Xie Ning froze. Pei Zhi almost whispered, "Just wet me."
"..." Electric current climbed up along the spine. Xie Ning's breathing became a little disordered, "Don't talk like that."
"How do you talk?"
"It's weird for you to talk like that."
"Weird? I think it's normal." Pei Zhi said, "But if you think it's weird, then it's weird. I listen to you, and I won't talk like that in the future."
Pei Zhi didn't understand what he meant at all.
Xie Ning really couldn't stand such a close contact, and Pei Zhi didn't give him any psychological preparation. The close contact without psychological preparation brought him a stronger sense of satisfaction.
He was afraid that his skin hunger would act up at this time, so he tried to push Pei Zhi again.
Xie Ning said with some panting: "Someone will come in..."
After his skin hunger was satisfied, he really started to talk nonsense.
Xie Ning and Pei Zhi didn't do anything out of the ordinary, they just hugged each other, so what if someone came in?
In the bathroom, many drunks need friends to support and hug them, or if someone is slightly injured, they will seek comfort in a hug in places like the bathroom.
But the key is that they are not any of them.
Pei Zhi simply wanted to hug him.
"Okay."
A thin layer of powder appeared on Xie Ning's skin. His skin was white, and his blushing was even more obvious. Pei Zhi was afraid that Xie Ning would be angry, so he loosened his grip a little, "Then can
I hug you tonight?" "I've been very obedient today. Can I hold you to sleep tonight?" Pei Zhi promised, "I will be careful and will not disturb your sleep. If you still feel hot, I can take off the quilt or take a cold shower."
In order to be able to hold him to sleep, can Pei Zhi do this?
Xie Ning couldn't understand, and he asked curiously: "Why do you have to hold me while sleeping?"
"I like holding you." Pei Zhi said, "When you are in my arms, I feel very safe."
That kind of satisfaction cannot be described in words, and it is irreplaceable.
"Okay." Xie Ning thought, maybe Pei Zhi couldn't give a reasonable reason, just like he couldn't give a reasonable explanation, why he didn't reject Pei Zhi's touch. However, his palms were sweating again, "You go back first, I'll wash my hands again. Don't touch the wine glass just now, you should pay attention to get a new one." Although
they are all classmates, it's never a bad thing to be a little vigilant. Xie Ning doesn't like to come to such occasions, but she also knows that the wine glass cannot leave her sight.
Pei Zhi originally wanted to continue waiting for Xie Ning, and then go back together. After hearing what Xie Ning said, he was really afraid that someone who didn't know how to live or die would do something.
Maybe it was because the bathroom was a little cold, the corners of Xie Ning's eyes were a little wet and red, and when she looked at people with a slight upward tilt, it was like she was wearing a little hook.
Pei Zhi's heart moved. He took out a cream paper from his pocket, folded it into a triangle, and carefully wiped the tears from the corners of Xie Ning's eyes.
After finishing, Pei Zhi put the paper into his pocket and said nonchalantly: "I'll go back and keep an eye on it."
"I'll wait for you to come back."
On the way back, Pei Zhi put his hands in his pockets, his face was cold and deep, and he walked with an aura that kept strangers away.
But the fingers in his pocket were gently rubbing the paper Xie Ning had just used. One corner was wet, it was Xie Ning's tears.
Xie Ning was more fragile than he thought.
I will cry if I rub my feet, and I will also cry if the wind blows or it is a little cold.
But it is really beautiful.
Like a transparent and flawless jade pendant, it is suddenly dyed with a gorgeous and dreamy color, which is the color that comes from the inside out.
At a corner, Pei Zhi was about to stride over when a familiar male voice came from the front.
"Well, I saw Xie Ning go to the toilet. What should I do? I'll just wait. Pei Zhi will come out. It's impossible for Pei Zhi to be so clingy that he has to share the toilet with Xie Ning." Su Nan looked down at his toes in boredom. He didn't know what the person on the other end of the phone said. He snorted and said, "I'll ask Xie Ning for her WeChat later. Just wait and see. I saw a girl was about to come. Me? Of course I'm serious. I really want to pursue her..."
A gust of wind blew in the air. Su Nan was so scared that his phone fell. He didn't have time to pick up the phone. He was thrown against the wall.
His back hurt from the impact. A sinister and fierce face approached.
Pei Zhi: "I didn't say that, stay away from Xie Ning."
Su Nan was startled. He glanced at the black screen of his phone and saw Pei Zhi's cold eyes without any emotion.
Although Pei Zhi didn't deliberately make any expression, it reminded people of an angry beast, baring its ferocious fangs.
Su Nan was frightened, but still stiffened his neck and said, "Why, are you going to beat me here? There are surveillance here, and now we live in a society ruled by law. It's not a big deal if there are some dirty money in the family..."
"You also know that my family is very rich." Pei Zhi lowered his eyelids, and his cold voice was full of undisguised threats. "Then do you know? This business club is a property under my family's name."
Su Nan's pupils suddenly dilated.
This is a high-end entertainment venue. It is an understatement to call it a KTV. There are many play areas in the club, as well as some relatively high-end projects, golf, tea ceremony... everything.
Many businessmen come here to discuss business, and they spend six or seven figures in one night, which is completely different from these students who come here to play.
Su Nan knew that Pei Zhi's family was rich, but he didn't expect them to be so rich.
"It's not difficult for me to destroy a surveillance camera." Pei Zhi looked at him without emotion, "I don't like to use violence to solve problems, but it doesn't mean I won't. You can try what the consequences will be if you put your mind on Xie Ning again."
"I advise you not to try."
Su Nan's face was pale. His family was okay, and he usually bought luxury goods casually, but he knew in his heart that his family couldn't even afford the middle-class line, and he couldn't afford to offend Pei Zhi's family.
Moreover...the veins on Pei Zhi's neck were clearly visible, his right hand was clenched tightly, and the phalanges and veins on the back of his hand were bursting with power.
Su Nan had no doubt that Pei Zhi really wanted to teach him a lesson here, even though there were surveillance cameras here.
Pei Zhi spent a lot of effort to suppress the violent emotions that surged like a tide. In fact, he shouldn't have done this, but when he heard Su Nan say that he wanted to pursue Xie Ning, all his rationality went to waste.
There was only one thing in his mind, that Su Nan must not be allowed to get close to Xie Ning.
Now Pei Zhi seemed to be a little calmer. He took a step back with an expression of undisguised disgust.
Su Nan clenched his fists, his expression was filled with fear and shame: "You are really a fucking psychopath!"
"You are just friends, I am pursuing Xie Ning, not you?" Su Nan was also mad, even if he was beaten, he would say, "Who are you to point fingers at me!"
Pei Zhi said coldly: "He and I are friends."
"Friends? Do you believe what you said?" Su Nan laughed, "If you like Xie Ning, just say it directly. Why do you have to say friends? Are you mean? I have seen many gays like you who pretend to be straight. You just want to have fun and are irresponsible. You are a scumbag. Oh, you may not like her either, you just feel like it at the moment."
"You showed your affection in various ways, and took advantage of Xie Ning in the name of friendship. If Xie Ning took it seriously, you would pretend to be surprised." Su Nan shook his shoulders and said in a gloomy tone, "Although we held hands, hugged and kissed and went to bed, we are just friends."
Pei Zhi suddenly raised his eyes, and his expression became tense .
"Fuck your good friend!" Su Nan said, "You are a gay who pretends to be straight and turns others into gays. You will get your retribution sooner or later."
Pei Zhi was still stunned for a long time until Su Nan left.
Pei Zhi really disliked Su Nan. Su Nan's pursuit and harassment before made him feel extremely disgusted, but Su Nan's words were like a sharp sword, hitting his heart.
He didn't even have time to get angry, but was thinking.
"If you like Xie Ning, just say it..."
All the fig leaves seemed to be torn off, and the word "like" was placed in front of Pei Zhi for the first time, becoming an option for Pei Zhi. It turns out that before a friend's liking, there can be another kind of liking.
It turns out that there is another choice for the relationship between him and Xie Ning.
It seems so. If they were just friends, why would he be unhappy and irritable when he saw someone pursuing Xie Ning.
If it was just a friend's liking, why would the possessiveness be so strong? Why would he want to monopolize Xie Ning, want to stick to Xie Ning all the time, and try his best to please Xie Ning without asking for anything in return.
No one would treat a friend like this.
But does he really like Xie Ning?
Pei Zhi did not deny that he had a crush on Xie Ning, and Xie Ning must have had a certain crush on him, too, so they became familiar with each other in such a short time and became friends that surprised others.
He carefully recalled what he had done with Xie Ning, and it seemed... it didn't go beyond the limit? Hugging and holding hands... between friends are all normal. What is abnormal is that he is gradually longing for deeper contact and communication.
At first it was just a simple bed-sharing, and then he liked the feeling of sleeping with Xie Ning in his arms and holding hands with Xie Ning. Later on, he felt that it was not enough, far from enough.
He became more and more greedy.
Contact between friends seemed to no longer satisfy him.
Pei Zhi suddenly remembered what Gu Nian had said.
"Why are you so clingy? You always pester Xie Ning and even make trouble. He is the only one with a good temper."
"You look like you have skin hunger."
Skin hunger?
Pei Zhi was standing on the balcony in the cold wind. He took out his mobile phone and searched the Internet for information about skin hunger.
It is said on the Internet that skin hunger will produce a strong desire to be stroked or touched, or an extreme desire to have skin contact with people. When the patient has physical contact with the contact object, the friction between the skin will produce a strong psychological satisfaction.
Pei Zhi's fingers tightened.
Isn't this him?
He especially wants to have skin contact with Xie Ning, the deeper the better. As long as he sees Xie Ning, he wants to hug Xie Ning and hold Xie Ning's hand. As long as he can touch Xie Ning, he can touch anywhere.
He also wanted Xie Ning to touch him, anywhere and in any way. Even if she just touched him with her feet, he would feel that it was enough. Just thinking about it made his scalp tingle.
But Pei Zhi was embarrassed to say it, for fear that Xie Ning would think he was a pervert.
Many times, he probably noticed that some of his thoughts were not normal, but people would always subconsciously ignore those negative and harmful news. Any thoughts that might destroy the relationship between him and Xie Ning would be selectively ignored by him and suppressed deep in his heart. In the end, what he could perceive were the things he thought were acceptable.
Just like some people write diaries, they will selectively lie and make the content tend to be selfish.
Is he really sick? Does he really have skin hunger?
No wonder he always wanted to stick to Xie Ning and hold her close to him all the time... It turned out that he was sick.
His mind was in a mess, and in a hurry, Pei Zhi looked for a psychiatrist on the Internet and prepared to consult.
The doctor's name was Shi Qingyu. He had treated skin hunger and had rich professional experience... Very good, he was the one.
Register an account, fill in the nickname, age and other information, and complete the online payment registration.
Pei Zhi immediately typed on the screen.
[nnbb: Doctor, I seem to have skin hunger. ]
