Chapter 17 Chapter 17 Isn’t it used?
Six people who have nothing in common.
We just got together for some strange reason.
Yu Yuanyuan was in a state of rage, sitting far away at the end of the dining table, not wanting to even look at Shi Shu!
Han Yi naturally stayed nearby, as if he was the one causing the trouble. He lowered his head and served like a grandson, while gritting his teeth and secretly cursing someone for really causing trouble for him!
Yue Jia and Zhao Xuan also decisively joined forces.
On the surface, they appear to be as quiet as chickens, but in reality, they are all lurking and watching the world, keeping an eye on all directions and listening to all directions, while their fingers are flying and reporting in real time in the group:
【shock--】
【Shi Dae is actually still a virgin!!!】
[Maybe you've never been in a relationship, and you still don't even have your first kiss?! ! ]
"Great, great! Now we can entrust our Master to him with greater confidence..."
What was outrageous was that none of them had any intention of avoiding Su Tu, and they just started chatting in the work group in a lively manner.
As a result, because she needed to pay attention to work messages, her phone, which was muted and placed on the desk, never went black from beginning to end.
And from the very beginning, when choosing a seat.
Everyone didn't know why, but they tacitly reserved the seat next to Shi Shu for her.
So the current form looks like this—
A long Western-style table for more than a dozen people.
Three men and three women sat in pairs, each at one end.
It's a bit like a combination of partners, and they will need to fight in the same group later, which inexplicably makes people have a mentality of "sharing honor and disgrace".
Even though he was the one who was exposed, she, as his "teammate", was also a little embarrassed.
It's like.
He hasn't done anything like that yet, so she also needs to take some responsibility...
Su Tu absentmindedly stirred the salad in front of him.
From time to time, he glanced at the side.
On the one hand, she really couldn't help but be curious and wanted to see his current expression; on the other hand, because of the current grouping format, it seemed that she also needed to fulfill some obligation to enlighten him?
Curiosity and a sense of mission made her eager to try:
-Don't be sad...
-It's not really something to be ashamed of...
-And I believe that one day you will break through yourself...
In the end, there was nothing I could say.
He even made himself red and hot.
Just when she was feeling guilty, Shi Shu was caught off guard again. He caught her gaze again and said in a low voice that was inexplicably dangerous: "What do you want to say?"
Su Tu's back stiffened: "..."
Like a restless rabbit, it was caught by the scruff of the neck and lifted up, and it became obedient in an instant.
"What else can you say besides sympathy?!"
Yu Yuanyuan's voice, still filled with anger, echoed from a distance, "Teacher Su, I'm telling you, this kind of straight man doesn't deserve any sympathy at all! He's so sullen, he won't even say he likes you, and yet he expects others to guess what he's thinking out of thin air!"
"When you find a boyfriend in the future, don't look for someone like this!"
Shi Shu's expression was when he heard the last sentence.
Suddenly cooled down.
Han Yi suddenly felt like he was about to collapse, squeezed like a sandwich. He begged for mercy from the other party while humbly coaxing the other party: "Calm down, calm down! They say he is a straight man, we won't argue with him..."
Unexpectedly, he would get into trouble the next second: "And you, you made the wrong friends! Get out and sleep on the street tonight!!!"
Han Yi's heart choked: "Baby, I'm innocent..."
Yu Yuanyuan glared at him and said, "Shut up!"
How could he really shut up? "Then, then—then how about I just break up with him now? We won't be involved in his affairs from now on..."
It was as if I was infected by the atmosphere over there.
Su Tu looked at the expressions of the people around him, and inexplicably felt a sense of urgency that if he didn't hurry up and comfort them, it would be too late. He subconsciously pushed the plate in his hand away, and said in a soft voice with a hint of comfort, "Do you want to -"
"Try this?"
Shi Shu lowered his eyes and glanced at her full of "sincerity".
I was speechless for a moment.
Su Tu lowered her head following his gaze, only to find that the salad beside her had already been stirred into a mess along with her messy thoughts.
Moreover, he seemed to have this thing himself.
She was tactically silent for two seconds: "..."
Just as she was about to pretend nothing had happened and quietly take the plate back, he reached out to take her gift and exchanged the one he had mixed.
Su Tu blinked.
Looking at the new salad in front of me, which was almost identical except for the slightly different placement of the vegetables, I didn't understand the point of doing this useless work.
Shi Shu seemed to be really coaxed. He picked up the cutlery on the plate that still had a little body temperature, silently picked up a slice of avocado with a fork, and put it into his mouth calmly.
Gentle jaw movements.
The mood seems to be pretty good...
At the same time, the stationary phone suddenly lit up again:
【Exchange salad! 】
May I ask?!
[What's the difference between this and drinking a cup of wine together? ! ! ]
Su Tu opened his eyes wide, picked up the phone in a hurry, and put it upside down on the table.
When people around you look at you with questioning eyes.
Suddenly, it dyed my face...
-
The thrilling meal ended.
Han Yi still remembered the reason why he had tricked these people into coming here, so he called a tour bus and took everyone for a tour.
Working in the design industry does require frequent visits to exhibitions, tourist attractions, star-rated hotels, etc. to understand current design trends and develop your own inspiration.
Many companies’ welfare sections also include opportunities to travel abroad or participate in exhibitions 1-2 times a year.
Su Tu originally wanted to take a symbolic tour and then politely say goodbye because he couldn't refuse the invitation and had no suitable reason to do so.
But thinking about it, it has been almost a year since everyone started working, and until now, let alone an exhibition, she has not even organized regular team building, so she seems particularly excited just to take a walk around now.
She felt a little ashamed.
Finally slowed down.
At least I don't want to spoil the fun at the moment.
So, in half an afternoon, the group visited the lobby, banquet hall, club, theater...
Before I knew it, I had walked thousands of steps.
When they returned to the tour bus, Han Yi handed him a bottle of water and said, "We've almost finished our shopping, why don't we find a place to hang out for a while?"
Yu Yuanyuan unscrewed the bottle cap: "Ask Teacher Su and see what they are more interested in..."
Turning around, he found that Shi Shu had gotten a paper guide map from somewhere. Three seconds after Su Tu's gaze lingered on the page about the equestrian field, he spoke at the right moment, "Want to ride a horse?"
Su Tu looked up: "Not really."
“It just looks a little fresh.”
Shi Shu nodded: "Then go."
Su Tu hesitated: "But I won't."
He didn't take it seriously: "You can learn."
But thinking of his non-existent athletic ability, Su Tu still hesitated: "Why not just forget it..."
Seeing this, Yu Yuanyuan in the front row interrupted with a chuckle, "How about giving you two small dark rooms so you can discuss this first?"
“…”
-Ten minutes later.
The tour bus stops outside the equestrian arena.
Su Tu took out an equestrian suit and changed into it unskillfully. After coming out, he stood in front of a full-length mirror and fixed his hair. Suddenly, a teasing whistle came from behind him.
Yu Yuanyuan approached, looked him up and down, and blurted out, "This guy must be so charming to Shi Shu~"
Su Tu: “…”
The equestrian suit is slim-fitting and has a simple design.
The black shirt, white pants and long boots show off her graceful figure, but also give off a hint of restraint, wanting to welcome but also rejecting.
She had thick black hair, and even after styling it, some of it still hung down.
The outstanding peach blossom eyes are charming in nature, but the look in them is clean and harmless, which makes them look contradictory and alluring, pure and lustful.
Seeing that someone had good taste, Yu Yuanyuan reluctantly let go of her grudges and raised her eyebrows with interest: "Tell me the truth, what do you think of Shi Shu?"
“…”
It's no exaggeration to say so.
Su Tu is almost immune to this topic.
It seemed like everyone who saw them quickly saw them as a couple, or about to become a couple.
So much so that when it was brought up unexpectedly, her reaction was a little numb: "It's fine."
"real?"
Yu Yuanyuan's eyes lit up, and she asked, "What about your boyfriend?"
Su Tu paused, then put himself in the shoes of a stranger who was still quite nice to him, and said objectively, "It should be pretty good, right?"
In fact, until now, she still couldn't quite understand why he couldn't catch up with the person he liked.
Obviously, both the outside and the inside look quite competitive.
Yu Yuanyuan was waiting for this sentence: "Are you interested?"
"Although that guy has a bad temper, to be honest, he has a really nice figure! If you're interested, I'll go and help you connect with him."
"Don't worry about anything else, just have some fun first!"
To be honest.
Su Tu actually wanted to express his agreement, but if it was just a matter of interest, why would he still... cough.
After all, in this world.
There are definitely quite a few people who are interested in him.
She smiled regretfully.
Then he changed the subject: "How did Miss Yu and Mr. Han get together?"
"ah?"
Yu Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, but her thoughts were quickly diverted: "That must be—he made eighteen birthday wishes and shamelessly begged for me!"
Su Tu was amused and also cheered: "It looks like this."
"Isn't it!" Yu Yuanyuan proudly raised her chin, with an expression that said, "How could I possibly lie to you?" and walked out, "So I'm telling you, men can't be spoiled..."
Just before the exit, the conversation was interrupted: "What are you laughing at? Why are you so happy?"
The one who spoke was Han Yi.
Apart from him, the other three had already changed their clothes and were waiting at the door.
But when Su Tu looked at first, he could only notice the tall figure at the end, and he didn't know how their eyes met naturally.
The men's equestrian suit is all black, and is also slim-fitting, with a cut that easily exposes flaws. When worn on him, he exudes a natural kingly aura.
In addition to the wildness, there is also a kind of direct sexiness.
How does the saying go?
The simpler things are, the harder they are to control.
He seems to be just like that, whether he is wearing refreshing swimming trunks, low-key casual clothes, red and white sportswear on the podium, or the lustful uniform on the racecourse.
No matter what you wear, whether uniform or individual, you will be the most difficult to ignore in the crowd.
Undecorated look.
That's him at his most advanced.
Just like the 520㎡ house in the city center, it represents strength in itself.
Even if the whole house is painted white, it is a tone.
Yu Yuanyuan was about to retort when she realized the atmosphere was not right.
So many people.
I just came out, and those two's eyes are already so impatient to stick to me?
She tutted her tongue and immediately took a step forward, standing in front of Su Tu as if to prevent anyone from doing what she wanted. She deliberately said in embarrassment, "You want to take the person away?"
"Shouldn't we show some appreciation?"
Han Yi was confused: "It's not like they're newlyweds blocking the door, what does this sudden move mean?"
Yu Yuanyuan glared at him: "Shut up!"
“…”
Zhao Xuan was also shocked and had to communicate with Yue Jia through his eyes:
-It would have been fine if he hadn't said it, but once he did, it seemed like he really had that in mind...
- What should I do?
-I just saw a flower shop up ahead. Is it still too late to go pick a bunch for Captain Shi?
Although Su Tu was used to this, he had never been pushed to this point. A blush quietly spread across his cheeks. Just as he was about to say something to resolve the situation, Shi Shu slowly walked towards him.
He slowly opened his palm and produced a large white rabbit from nowhere. He lowered his eyes and asked her, "Do you want one?"
“…”
Su Tu's body froze and his face turned even redder.
Two seconds later, the white fingertips slid across the broad palm.
Both of them were a little overwhelmed.
Shi Shu's fingers trembled slightly, and he dropped them to his side. Then he made room and took the person away first: "Let's go."
Su Tu muttered: "Oh..."
A few steps away, everyone's belated shock came—
"Depend on?!"
"Is this even possible?!"
"Isn't Teacher Su a little too gullible?!"
No.
Su Tu silently defended himself.
She actually doesn't like sweets.
But she could never refuse the indulgence of someone who was willing to coax her with candy.
-
On the grassland not far away.
The horses have been brought out.
Shi Shu took big steps, but she could always strangely keep side by side with Su Tu. However, every time she walked with him, she actually felt a lot of psychological pressure.
His height, his aura, and the uniform of black all exude a powerful sense of oppression.
A natural superior posture.
But at the same time, he can notice many insignificant details, such as the water on the dining table, the sugar he carries with him, and the hand that suddenly reaches out to him when he walks in front of the horse.
This makes those who are going to enjoy these thoughtful things feel anxious.
It's hard to say whether I'm willing or not.
But it is undoubtedly tense and overloaded.
Su Tu pursed his lips, suppressed his chaotic heartbeat, slowly extended his hand, and placed it firmly against the big, bony palm. Suddenly, he felt like he was being held hostage.
The process of getting on the horse took more than two minutes, with some stumbling and clumsy steps.
As soon as he steadied himself, he shyly withdrew his hand and instead tightly grasped the reins in front of him to offset the strange and confusing touch: "...Thank you."
Shi Shu didn't say anything.
Jingmo took the traction rope at the front and consciously took on the responsibility of leading the horse.
Su Tu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Only then did he notice that his current field of vision was actually much higher than his.
In the distance, clouds were floating, the azure sky looked like a brilliant sea of fire, and the long wind blew across the empty horse farm.
The scene was silent for a moment.
Su Tu calmed down, and at an angle where he couldn't see, he quietly spread out his palm, as if to make sure the candy was still in his hand.
He took a look and quickly closed it.
The corners of her lips curved slightly, and a long-lost sense of satisfaction spread through her heart. Taking advantage of this rare vantage point, she jumped for joy and said with a bit of coquettishness, "Why do you bring candy with you?"
When Shi Shu looked up, he caught a glimpse of the light in her eyes, and his expression softened a little: "Just in case."
Su Tu's cheeks flushed, and he felt a little awkward being stared at: "...Ah?"
I don’t know if it’s because of the weather.
It seemed as if her face hadn't really cooled since noon.
Shi Shu's gaze paused for a moment, then passed by her right hand, which was clenched into a fist. Then, in a natural tone that said, "The facts are already before us," he said, "Isn't it used?"
“…”
The voice and expression are calm.
Without any hesitation.
Looking at it is like saying: It’s prepared for you.
Su Tu subconsciously tilted his head.
Even with the howling wind, I still couldn't stop my rapid heartbeat.
Until a burst of hurried horse hooves rushed in.
Han Yi and Yu Yuanyuan rode the same horse, galloping over and then stopping at the side. They looked disdainful and said, "Are you two raising fish?"
“…”
He suddenly thought of something and raised his eyebrows to encourage, "Hey, let's have a competition?"
"The losers will be locked up in a dark room together tonight!"
Yu Yuanyuan tutted her words and turned to look at him: "I miss you so much."
If he wins, he'll help those two. If he loses, he won't have to sleep on the floor tonight.
Han Yi chuckled, his expression a bit witty, and turned his head to continue urging, "Hurry up, you two! If you don't get on now, we'll have to leave!"
"I'm not trying to scare you. There's nothing else here, but there are plenty of small dark rooms!"
Su Tu felt that the two of them seemed to be unable to get out of the small dark room, so he just said in a roundabout way: "But I really can't."
Even the fish farming here relies on people to lead them.
Yu Yuanyuan pointed to her side and said, "Look who's that?"
"If you have resources, you have to know how to use them, okay?"
Su Tu lowered his head.
Thinking that swimming was his major, I couldn't help but ask with a hint of doubt: "Can you... do it?"
“…”
Shi Shu didn't argue, but he was somewhat questioned and took it seriously: "Want to compete?"
Su Tu: “Uh…”
That wasn't what she meant.
However, before the two of them could finish their discussion, Yu Yuanyuan grabbed the reins and took Han Yi ahead, saying, "Let's go! Don't say I didn't wait for you—"
“…”
Su Tu subconsciously looked in the direction she was heading, but soon turned back anxiously, wanting to ask him what to do. If he didn't compete, he would still lose, right?
The next second, the reins in his hand changed hands, and the person next to him jumped up, pressed his broad chest against his back, and put his long arms around his waist, suddenly pulling the person into his arms.
She suddenly opened her eyes wide!
Before he could react, the horse raised its front hooves high and galloped towards the tail of its companion in front. On the way, it actually encountered a horizontal obstacle as thick as a tree trunk!
She opened her eyes as wide as she could and then quickly closed them. In panic, she tightly hugged the arm in front of her and screamed to stop him: "Stop competing, ah ah ah——"
Long before he exclaimed, Shi Shu had a premonition and slowed down. The horse stopped just in front of the obstacle and then slowly went around it from the side.
Su Tu, who was still in shock, still grabbed his arm and shouted, "Stop comparing, Mr. Shi! Stop comparing, wuwu..."
It took a long while before he realized the danger had gone away.
Just as he tentatively opened his eyes a crack, he heard a warning voice, a warning of danger in another sense: "Su Tu."
She shuddered: "..."
I was immediately constrained by the distance that was so close that it was hard to describe, and the sense of touch that was briefly diverted by fear suddenly returned.
The broad embrace, the solid muscles, and the male hormones that were too strong to ignore all shocked her senses.
Yet, he still insisted on some insignificant details at this time: "We are not discussing the plan now."
Su Tu's expression was confused, his back stiff and almost paralyzed, so that even the movement of turning back to look at him seemed a little timid: "W...what?"
He was at a loss, like a herbivore that encountered its natural enemy.
And natural enemies.
The vulnerability she exposed only made it harder for him to suppress his ferocity: "What did you just call me?"
Su Tu shuddered for no reason, then belatedly came up with a tentative attempt to please the other party: "I...what should I call you?"
His eyes were silent, and he looked at her silently for a while before saying, "Name."
Just a name.
Su Tu breathed a sigh of relief and repeated it silently in his mind. He didn't find it difficult to say it, but when he looked down and saw his arms around his waist.
Suddenly woke up again——
In this case, it doesn't matter what you call him.
There's a suspicion of being a bit spoiled...
Shi Shu waited patiently for a while.
It wasn't until he noticed a sign of avoidance in her eyes, as if she was about to play dumb and fool him, that he frowned and reminded her in a deep voice: "When you said you liked me yesterday."
"Didn't I shout?"
