Chapter 9 - Your Name
Chapter 9 - Your Name
Late at night, taxis were running on the main road with light traffic.
Ning Fei felt really uncomfortable sitting there, and after moving around, he finally settled into a half-leaning, half-leaning position and managed to sit still. Although he was restless at the moment, he deserved it. After all, when he was having fun before, he didn't think about what would happen next.
Thinking about what happened after the pleasure, Ning Fei looked at the new straps on his hands and felt quite amused.
At that time, after the two of them had taken a shower, Mr. "Good Samaritan" brought the first aid kit from home to the master bedroom and re-bandaged Ning Fei's hand. As for the original bandage, it was soaked during the second round of their "fooling around" in the bathroom.
This time, even the application of alcohol to clean the wound was done by Mr. Duan himself. Ning Fei stretched out his right hand with peace of mind, while his left hand was swiping his phone. Mr. Duan saw that the wounds on his fingers and palms were bleeding and he was a little unhappy: "Don't you remember that you were injured? Is it necessary to be so aggressive?"
"I didn't pay attention at the time. Who would care about this? Would you care about it if it were you?" Ning Fei replied casually, "And it didn't hurt that much...hiss."
Mr. Duan, who was pressing the alcohol cotton pad hard on the wound, said: "Didn't you say it doesn't hurt?"
"You're pressing so hard that I can create a wound even if there's no wound!" Ning Fei glared at him unhappily, pulled his hand back, and wiped it clean with a few quick strokes. He found a liquid Band-Aid from the box and simply sprayed it on a few places. By the time he put the bottle down, Mr. Duan was already waiting with a bandage.
Ning Fei inexplicably felt that this was the other party's way of apologizing, or in other words, a sign of surrender. Sure enough, Ning Fei stretched his hand in front of the man again, and the man silently re-bandaged him.
It was as if the little argument just now no longer existed.
Of course, Ning Fei also knew that if he asked directly, "Why are you so proactive in apologizing to me?" the other party would definitely deny it. This man is very tough-talking, and he doesn't say much dirty talk even when he's "doing things". But his skills are really good. Even without those fancy words to create a good atmosphere and present a good occasion, Ning Fei is willing to give him a five-star rating.
However, it is not always possible to come across excellent players at the five-star level.
So Ning Fei had the idea of "being good friends for a while" and decided to find out some information about this man. If the other person doesn't like to come to you actively, Ning Fei can take the initiative to find him/her. There is no need to be reserved and wait for the other person to call first.
"Well, although it seems a bit ridiculous to ask you this question now..." Ning Fei was a little embarrassed, and couldn't help but give a warning, "But I asked you, don't be angry, okay?"
Mr. Duan glanced at him, then lowered his eyes and continued to bandage the bandage. Ning Fei saw that he remained silent and was about to ask, but suddenly Mr. Duan asked: "...Are you sure you want to ask now?"
"Otherwise?" Ning Fei was at a loss, "Do we still need to choose an auspicious time?"
"Although you are in my house now and we have slept together, your problem is different from sleeping with each other." Mr. Duan tied the bandage and cut off the remaining part. His tone sounded a little cold and serious. "We have only met three times in total, and haven't you ever considered your identity..."
"Stop, stop, wait a minute." Ning Fei felt something was wrong the more he listened, so he interrupted him, "Mr. Duan, did you misunderstand something? I don't want to fall in love with you!"
Mr. Duan: “…”
The scene fell into a subtle awkwardness for a moment. Ning Fei wanted to laugh, but held it back and said seriously, "I want to ask another question."
Mr. Duan: “…What?”
Ning Fei: "Mr. Duan, can you tell me your full name?"
Mr. Duan fell into a longer silence.
Ning Fei knew that it was a strange question to ask at this time, but there was nothing he could do as he had not found a suitable opportunity to ask the question before. Now I want to be “long-term friends” with someone, but I can’t not even know their name, right?
But when faced with this question, Mr. Noble not only did not answer, but his expression also gradually became strange. He frowned, and stared at Ning Fei with a scrutinizing gaze, as if he was looking at something incredible.
Ning Fei thought, could it be that asking for a name would violate the other party's taboo? So he asked, "If you can't tell me your real name, how about a nickname?"
Mr. Duan finally said solemnly: "You don't know my name?"
"Should I... know?" Ning Fei quickly recalled their encounter. The first time was in a club, where they fell in love by chance amid the bright lights and partying. We went straight to the hotel upstairs and got a room, but we broke up before the end. The second time, they parted at the door of the bathroom in the Baron's house without saying a few words. The last time was today. With so few face-to-face moments, it’s impossible for me to remember it wrong.
"I never asked you what your name was before, and you didn't tell me. When I gave you my business card, you didn't return it either." Ning Fei was very sure of his memory. "I even heard your last name Duan from your subordinates. How could I know your full name?"
The man frowned and said, "You don't know who I am, so how do you know what I did at the Baron's house last time?"
Ning Fei thought for a long time before remembering what he said and replied, "I didn't say I knew, but you asked me, 'Why do you say I'm here?' I thought you wanted to keep it a secret, so I replied like that on purpose."
The man gritted his teeth a little: "You really don't know who I am? If you don't know, why do you follow me and climb into my bed the first time we met?!"
"Huh? When we first met, it was clearly our mutual consent to go upstairs. What do you mean I want to climb into your bed?" Ning Fei's eyes widened. "Who are you? Do you think others climb into your bed because of your identity?"
The man said in a deep voice: "I am Duan Yunhong!"
Ning Fei: ...Who?
Seeing that he didn't react, the man sneered and said, "Perhaps you are more familiar with my other name - Andrew."
Ning Fei reacted immediately: "...the director of ST Brokerage?!"
How come he doesn't know? He knows it too well! ST wants to focus on developing its business in the Greater China region, and has transferred the famous artist director Andrew from the U Continent headquarters to be the boss of ST's Greater China region! However, Andrew rarely accepted interviews before and his photos were hard to come by, so Ning Fei only remembered his name after reading ST's information and had no idea what he looked like.
Now, Ning Fei could only say “Oh wow”.
No wonder people don’t call me. Who would stoop to such a high position? Maybe he thinks he's playing hard to get if he doesn't get it back.
In a flash, Ning Fei remembered something else: "Did you instruct the ST headhunter to recruit me?"
Duan Yunhong said coldly: "You think too much."
Ning Fei was unsure at first, but seeing him like this, he guessed that it was most likely his decision. Mr. Duan thought Ning Fei knew his identity, and that Ning Fei approached him deliberately because he wanted to join ST Feisheng. Then Mr. Duan asked a headhunter to poach Ning Fei. Everything makes sense logically, how logical!
However, the fact is that not only will Ning Fei not be delisted, but he and Duan Yunhong can be said to be enemies.
"Well, there may be some misunderstanding between us." Ning Fei sighed in his heart, but still asked unwillingly, "I will definitely not go to ST. But, if possible, can we meet again in the future... on the premise of temporarily forgetting each other's position?"
Duan Yunhong's tone was still cold: "What do you think?"
Ning Fei thought to himself, why is it another rhetorical question? Such a familiar pattern.
But looking at Duan Yunhong's expression, Ning Fei felt that the reason he was not thrown out of the door was because he had good self-control. Ning Fei didn't want to stick around and be annoying, after all, this was a matter of mutual consent. So he gathered his bathrobe, grabbed his phone and climbed out of bed: "Well, okay, then I'd better not make you angry here."
Duan Yunhong didn't say anything, nor did he stop him. He just watched him leave the master bedroom with cold eyes.
The footsteps gradually faded away and the noises coming from outside disappeared. Duan Yunhong didn't move, but his eyes glanced at the first aid kit next to him, and he inexplicably felt it was a bit annoying.
After a while, Ning Fei returned to the door of the master bedroom: "I'm leaving wearing your clothes, just as compensation for you tearing my shirt last time. I won't wear it out again, don't worry."
After saying this, Ning Fei had nothing else to say, so he said, "Then I'm leaving. Good night. By the way, let me say one last thing. Your skills are well practiced!"
He even gave a thumbs up as he spoke, but he didn't dare to look at Duan Yunhong's reaction and immediately turned and left. You might think that the other person is going to be unhappy again, so run away before he loses his temper.
Ning Fei walked all the way to the front door, but Duan Yunhong did not come out of the master bedroom. Ning Fei was glad that he had wiped his blood-stained shoes clean in the afternoon. He put them on quickly and walked out the door wearing his blood-stained clothes.
After he went downstairs and got a taxi, he just remembered something as he got in the car.
——He said he was sending me some good wine! I should have chosen it earlier and taken it out!
***
Ning Fei had a sore back, so he didn't go to get his car back overnight, but went home to take a nap first.
He also turned off all the alarms before going to bed, and turned off his cell phone again, regardless of the consequences. By the time Ning Fei woke up naturally, it was already past one in the afternoon.
I haven't slept so well in a long time since I came into this world.
When I opened my phone, I saw a series of missed call reminders and a bunch of unread messages on the APP. Ning Fei quickly flipped through the messages. Most of them were from people in the studio asking him why he hadn't arrived at the work site that morning, and there were also a few who were contacting him for work. And, a message Su Cenxi sent this morning: [Why haven’t you arrived yet? Achen said something might have happened to you, what happened? 】
Judging from other people's information, Su Cenxi went to work as usual today. So does he know what Gu Hechen did? Ning Fei thought about it and decided that no matter whether Su Cenxi knew it or not, this information was disgusting.
If he knew, the information would be hypocritical. He seemed to be concerned, but in fact he came to find out what happened to Ning Fei.
If he didn't know, this information showed that he knew Ning Fei might have been in trouble, and that Gu Hechen might know the truth, but he didn't ask Gu Hechen about it.
In short, Ning Feichun pretended not to notice the news about the tea aroma in the tea.
He pretended not to see the news about the docking work. Ning Fei even turned on the airplane mode, only connected to the wifi, and spent the day leisurely.
——You want to deal with me? Okay, then I’ll let you see what will happen to you without me.
