Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Do you still want to hug me?
Su Tu confirmed.
Sexual fantasies and talkative talk have a stimulating effect.
It felt like I just watched some videos and had some appropriate associations, but several hours passed by without me feeling tired at all.
Although this directly led to the failure to get up early the next day.
But it didn't stop her from being in a good mood, and she was very organized when integrating her work.
Jinli's case was sent to the construction drawing company, and preliminary drawing began. Material suppliers were contacted to mail various material samples, and several sets of backlog floor plans were drafted. After meeting with several owners separately, the latest schedule was simultaneously sent to Tao Qingqing.
Everything went according to plan, but not entirely smoothly.
For example, she still has no idea about the renderings of InterContinental World.
He had said before that there was no rush, and she thought it was just a polite remark.
Later, after thinking about it carefully, I felt that he might think that instead of blindly rushing to finish the result, it would be better to give her more time to calm down and come up with the most appropriate plan.
So, taking the initiative to teach her how to swim and inviting her to his home, could it be that he wasn't just trying to bully her?
Maybe you also want her to get some inspiration by observing the design of her home?
With this in mind, she felt less stressed about the meeting on Wednesday and just treated it as work, packing her new equipment early.
When the time comes, go out to keep the appointment.
The villa area is a bit remote.
Su Tu followed the navigation, driving from the bustling city to the quiet place. Before arriving at the entrance of the manor, he thought he had accidentally entered a forest.
The car stopped in front of the crossbar.
In less than two seconds, the lifting rod will automatically release.
The stationed guard came closer and bowed to explain to her that Shi Shu had already registered the license plate and she would be able to come and go freely when she came here from now on.
Su Tu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said thank you.
Then, following the instructions, we drove slowly towards a new courtyard house beside the lake.
The garage is open.
After Shi Shu pointed out the direction from the outside, he went underground with the vehicle.
The already spacious ground was extended with a mirror finish, creating a sense of vastness that stretches as far as the eye can see under the dim light.
There were two luxury cars parked in the middle, and one could tell they were worth a lot just by looking at the gloss of their paint. Su Tu had just adapted to the changes in light and darkness when he had to keep stepping on the brakes, not daring to even try to get close.
The elevator goes directly to the second floor, where you will see a series of ingenious window views, giving you a sense of transcendental artistic conception as if the beautiful scenery in the courtyard was moved indoors.
The suite also continues this tranquil atmosphere, and all the home furnishings, whether near or far, are harmonious and refined.
"What's wrong?"
Su Tu retracted his gaze upon hearing this, and followed the others downstairs with light steps. He felt that the design here was very good, but he still couldn't help but feel a little puzzled: "Do you usually live here?"
Shi Shu led the people outside, around the winding waterscape, and came to a swimming pool: "Not staying here."
It is called a swimming pool, but it actually looks more like a large "bathtub".
Probably to match the overall design, the mosaic on the bottom of the pool is a gradient of gray-green. At the end, there are several towering light beams, and the outline of bamboo joints can be vaguely seen. The water curtain flows down along the halo, with a kind of radiant beauty.
She pointed absentmindedly at the courtyard beside her and asked, "What's the design of this place?"
Shi Shu said truthfully: "My parents arranged it."
“…”
Su Tu choked visibly, and his mindset of observing carefully for a long time was broken. He subconsciously wanted to ask him: Why did you bring me here?
Shi Shu looked down at her, and he understood what she had been looking at all the time. A hint of reproach flashed across his eyes, "What are you doing here?"
Work.
Su Tu thought to himself.
Accompany customers to have fun, let them bully others, make them happy, and try to reach a consensus on the premise that both parties are happy.
It's part of the job.
But perhaps it was because his magnetic field was too strong. Although her original intention was not wrong, she could not help but be stared at by him silently. She subconsciously reflected on herself. After a moment, she actually felt ashamed of her lack of concentration in her study attitude.
The voice then weakened along with the confidence: "...swimming."
Her long eyelashes drooped and her lips were slightly pursed.
There was a hint of dissatisfaction amidst the obedience.
Shi Shu sighed softly, "There's no rush for the plan."
After a pause, he said bluntly, "Whenever you come up with a style you like, you can do it."
Su Tu looked up.
Without a doubt, he was once again stunned by such words: "..."
She could now barely understand that he was "not in a hurry", but why was he still trying to equate the outcome of the plan with her favorite style?
What if she just likes white walls and wants to paint the whole house white?
Shi Shu noticed her confusion, but he still waited patiently for a while before backing away to make room for her. He said without emotion, "Warm up, get in the water."
"……oh."
For some reason, Su Tu felt that his mood was a little off at the moment. He looked as if he was expecting something, but in the end he was still disappointed.
But I'm not sure.
After all, nothing in the conversation just now was worth him having such emotions, right?
So during the warm-up period.
From time to time, she would turn her head to look at him.
It was only at this moment that I noticed that the scar on his waist was actually quite obvious.
To be precise, there are two.
The upper incision was about eight or nine centimeters long, the incision was wider and not very smooth, and it looked a bit hideous against the large area of smooth and tight muscles.
The lower one is about three centimeters, the blade is narrower and lighter in color, so it doesn't look that clear.
There are many different opinions about these two scars on the Internet. She has seen many of them, but she has never seen any officially certified explanation.
She didn't say much.
After warming up obediently, we followed him down to the swimming pool, one in front and one behind.
The water depth is also 1.4m.
It just covered his waist, and the scar was easily hidden in it.
When they arrived at the starting position, Shi Shu turned around and asked her to consolidate what she had learned in the previous lesson. After floating back and forth a few times, he was ready to teach her the essentials of breaststroke.
Su Tu hesitated for a moment and said, "Learn breaststroke?"
Shi Shu hummed: "What?"
Su Tu brushed away the water on his forehead, his cheeks flushed, and he panted slightly and said, "No, I just thought you could teach freestyle swimming."
After all, that was his main thing.
It does look better.
Shi Shu looked at her, who looked exhausted even before she started, and pondered for a moment: "Breaststroke is easier. You should be able to learn it before September."
After a pause, he added, "I'll teach you the rest later."
Exercise is a bit cerebral.
Su Tu fluttered his eyes and blurted out: "Later?"
Shi Shu did not hesitate: "Yes."
He looked her straight in the eye and said, "You can learn anytime you want."
Su Tu was still puzzled: "But after September, doesn't your vacation end?"
“We also have a break every week.”
Shi Shu's tone was casual, as if he had just mentioned this point and was reporting it casually: "As for the training camp, it will take a while. I'll tell you the details after I get the notification."
Su Tu was a little confused after hearing this: "..."
Why should you tell her?
It doesn't make sense that she still can't come up with a plan by September, so that we have to maintain a long and shameful contact afterwards?
That's too scary!
Her head was spinning, and she couldn't promise him that she would be able to come up with a plan that would satisfy him before September. In the end, she could only mumble, "Oh, I see."
I don’t know if it’s an illusion.
After saying this, he seemed to raise his eyebrows slightly, and his mood seemed obviously better than before. Then he gave a brief explanation and began to demonstrate the movements to her.
First, the breaststroke legs.
After she has mastered it, we will move on to breaststroke.
Su Tu's motor skills are not very good. He is not fast at learning the movements and is even a bit clumsy. Every time he kicks off, I have to turn around and confirm with him whether it is the right move.
But she slowed down her learning process and tried to understand everything carefully, so she was able to complete each movement quite well.
"Yeah, pretty standard."
Shi Shu was not stingy with his praise and suggested, "Do it more consistently."
Su Tu likes this occasional sweetness, which allows her to stay focused and in a good mood: "Okay."
After successfully completing a breaststroke leg kick, I started to try breaststroke hands.
She paddled several times and when she was about to run out of breath, her left wrist felt loose and the bracelet, which was already a little loose, suddenly fell off as she swam.
When Shi Shu saw her, he immediately stopped, stood up from the water panting, and looked around in panic.
The blue bracelet lay quietly at the bottom of the green pool, and Shi Shu could tell its exact location at a glance.
After a while, he walked over with an indifferent look on his face, bent down and was about to pick it up, but the second before he touched it, a hand reached out from the side.
He was no longer afraid of water and buried his entire head in the bottom of the pool. He did not think of asking anyone for help and did not want to waste even a second, so he quickly retrieved the bracelet.
He stood up, and without waiting to catch his breath, he quickly checked it. Seeing that there was no damage, he took a deep breath and put it back on immediately.
Shi Shu watched the whole thing with his eyes downcast, his voice cold: "Is it very important?"
Su Tu raised his head slowly: "Hmm?"
Shi Shu glanced at her left wrist and said without emotion, "I see you've been wearing it all the time."
From New Year's Eve to now.
Water has buoyancy and the bracelet is not heavy. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there will be no problem even if it falls.
Su Tu, however, still looked very worried that something might go wrong. He held it in his hands with lingering fear and said, "Yes, it's very important."
After thinking about it, I discussed with him again: "How about we practice the legs first today? Next time I find a way to fix it, then practice the hands, okay?"
Shi Shu had no intention of discussing with her how to keep the bracelet safe, so he just said "hmm" perfunctorily.
There's no pretentiousness in my heart.
He had known some established facts from the beginning, and there was no reason to force her to abandon anything suddenly.
Change takes time.
There is nothing wrong with it, it can be done overnight.
Since he wanted to fight for a long time, he would just let her take it off her body willingly.
-
Swimming is really tiring.
It's clearly just a simple movement exercise, and it's not even time to actually swim.
But before long, the body began to show signs of overdraft, and the strength of the legs became weaker and weaker.
Didn't feel tired during the process.
It was when I accidentally stopped that I realized my limbs were shaking!
This feeling made Su Tu feel scared.
Soon he was possessed by the image of a poor student and acted as if he really couldn't swim at all, forcing Shi Shu to call a halt and end today's practice.
She staggered to the exit and easily moved upwards with the help of buoyancy, but as soon as her legs left the water, they immediately became as heavy as if filled with lead, and she sank rapidly.
Fortunately, Shi Shu supported her from behind, preventing her from falling back into the water in such an undignified way.
Su Tu thanked him shyly. His first reaction after getting ashore was hunger.
Really hungry.
Or maybe it was her appetite that increased dramatically, the kind of hunger that allowed her to immediately name the eighteen dishes she wanted to eat the most.
Shi Shu noticed it and asked her directly, "What do you want to eat?"
Su Tu was still a little embarrassed, but thinking that he had already eaten so many meals with him, it seemed a little too late to feel embarrassed now. In the end, he smiled lightly and said with a hint of flattery: "Pizza, Coke."
Thinking of his eating habits, he added uncertainly, "Is that okay?"
Shi Shu took her expression in, pursed his lips and hummed, then took her back to the suite they had just been in. "The takeaway might be a little slow, so you can take a break after you wash. I'll call you when we're there."
Su Tu nodded: "Okay."
Afterwards, she slowed down her pace and leisurely lingered in the bathroom for almost an hour before changing into a loose cotton casual dress.
She lazily lay down on the bed, eagerly waiting for her dinner.
There was a knock on the door soon.
She immediately stood up, took a slightly brisk step, and excitedly opened the door.
Looking up, I saw a strong face, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were soaked with the freshness after a bath. His long arms were bent, holding two bags of food and asked: "In the living room or the audio-visual room?"
…
A few minutes later.
The remote control for the audio-visual room was handed to her.
In the dim light, Su Tu absentmindedly selected a movie.
From time to time, he glanced at the person next to him who was slowly unpacking food, and when he checked the progress, he looked a little impatient.
Only after the two plates of pizza, steak, snacks, and cola in the packaging bags were all taken out and filled the table did he quickly click on one of the drinks.
She put down the remote control and took the glove he handed her.
After putting it on, the first thing I did was to take the pizza from the plate, but it was difficult to take it because the cheese on the edge was stuck.
He immediately propped up his elbows, rubbed the arm beside him anxiously, and asked for help: "Help me."
Shi Shu's eyes swept across the point where the two arms touched each other. His eyes paused slightly. Without moving one arm, he pulled out a glove with his other hand and moved over to solve the problem.
Pizza rescued successfully.
Su Tu smiled lightly, leaned back on the sofa in the light from the curtain, and began to eat his meal contentedly.
Even she didn't notice it.
When did she start to become so relaxed in front of him?
It was as if her body had become accustomed to his indulgence. She no longer felt awkward when she accepted the steak he had cut and the Coke he handed her. Sometimes, she would even have some subjective opinions: "I don't want to eat pizza now."
"Can I have fries instead?"
By the time the movie was halfway through, most of the food had been eaten.
Shi Shu tidied up the table a little, then leaned back on the sofa. When he turned his head to look over, he found that she had fallen asleep with her eyes closed without him noticing.
The air conditioner was blowing cool air slowly, and the pictures on the screen were flowing gracefully, making her eyebrows and eyes look even more tranquil, her small nose tip slightly raised, and the corners of her lips raised in a visible arc.
He looks very well behaved, and you can also sense a bit of cleverness in him that pleases people.
Shi Shu's eyes were silent, and he just looked at her quietly for a while before he slowly reached out, brushed away the loose hair on her cheek, and carefully put it behind her ear.
Just as she was about to get up to get a thin blanket, she opened her eyes as if she sensed something in the direct gaze and subtle movements.
As soon as he caught a figure in his field of vision, a deep sense of dependence appeared on his face.
He rubbed his body against the person's, trying hard to get into his arms.
Shi Shu didn't know when or from whom she developed this habit.
When consciousness is weak, one tends to seek embrace.
There was a coldness in his eyes. He suddenly grabbed her wrist and said in a cold voice, "Su Tu."
“…”
She slowly opened her eyes.
Before I regained consciousness, I heard that strange and somewhat fierce voice, and it asked again, "Who am I?"
She blinked, trying to identify it in confusion.
After sensing that this face was safe and intrusive, a complaint of not understanding why the question was asked immediately surfaced on his face: "Shi Shu."
“…”
Shi Shu's expression froze, his body suddenly stiffened, but the strength in his hands loosened involuntarily.
After the sound of the film, the sharp Adam's apple rolled silently.
As if he was afraid of disturbing her, he lowered his voice with a hint of tacit approval, "Do you still want to hug me?"
