Chapter 29 Chapter 29 Report.
In the rehabilitation area.
After receiving the latest medical examination report, Cai Zhengsheng finally felt relieved. "I've recovered well. Although I still have some strain, it's not a major problem. I'll definitely be able to participate in this training camp."
His face flushed, and he placed the report on the table again. He turned around and asked, "Is it almost time to return to the team?"
Shi Shu put on his clothes and said expressionlessly, "Yeah."
Cai Zhengsheng noticed that his mood was a little low, so he couldn't help but say, "How about I go report to Coach Wu and tell him that you're fine now and it's okay to come back for training now. Xiao Tian and the others are here anyway."
"Need not."
Shi Shu pulled down his shirt hem and said in a tone that brooked no argument: "Let's stick to the original plan."
Cai Zhengsheng shouted, "Why are you still unwilling to train now?"
You have to know that his shoulder injury was mainly caused by overuse. He liked to give himself extra training at every turn. If he had nothing to do during the holidays, he would stop training early and return to the team early.
Cai Zhengsheng remembered something and asked again, "What have you been busy with recently?"
Shi Shu picked up the phone on the table and swiped it a few times with clear purpose. Soon, after searching without any results, the screen locked and closed again. His voice sounded a little deep: "Rest."
Frankly speaking, it's actually quite difficult to detect his emotions, because he usually has this dead expression on his face, with his eyes drooping as he looks down at everyone, and no matter what happens, his expression won't change much.
But if you just talk to him for a few words, it will be easier to find out that something is wrong.
Generally speaking, when his plans are disrupted and he behaves in a way that is inconsistent with his normal behavior, that is when he breaks down.
For example, even after recovering from an injury, he still refuses to come back for training.
For example, he was actually waiting for something to happen on his phone, which made him lose the initiative.
And in Cai Zhengsheng's opinion, apart from his shoulder injury which has improved due to good recuperation, his overall mental state is very average.
His expression was gloomier than before, and his eyes more solemn.
He couldn't help but frown: "You rest like this?"
And reasonably guess: "Is the relationship not going well?"
Shi Shu's mind paused, and he suddenly glanced away.
Cai Zhengsheng said without surprise, "Nothing surprising. Chang Yang and Xiao Tian talk about this every day. I heard a few words about it."
Guessing there was no way he'd get an explanation, he simply said, "I won't say much, but you'll be back in the team in a few days, maybe even earlier. You know that well."
"Just deal with it as soon as possible and don't let it affect the training."
…
Out of the base.
Shi Shu closed the car door and drove towards Xingyao Building.
He had no habit of listening to music and didn't need navigation for routes he knew, so the car was completely silent and there was no way to display the date.
But he clearly remembered that today was August 15th.
It has been 9 days since we last met, and 19 days since the last time we met.
Two months is not a long time, far from enough to accomplish all the things in the plan. He was mentally prepared for this, and his minimum expectation was to make her realize his purpose without scaring her.
After all, from her perspective, if she was told directly at the beginning that the house was bought for her.
This is too ridiculous.
Everything was going smoothly. He could even feel her slowly changing mood and his own shadow lurking in the corner of her eyes.
Until 19 days ago, the situation suddenly changed.
If you think about it carefully, maybe it was wrong from the beginning.
He shouldn't have been so impatient. He assured her that it was the wedding house when they first met, causing her to mistakenly believe that his target was someone else.
So that we are in the current predicament.
If the situation cannot be reversed, we can only let time pass day by day until it is completely wasted.
He knew she was busy and that now was not the right time.
But he didn't have time.
-
Over a week.
Su Tu's schedule is becoming increasingly busy.
I had to deal with a backlog of cases, submit sample materials in a hurry, endure the bombardment of phone calls from Uncle Liu, and also accept a few social engagements because I had some expanded resources after solving the Jinli case a while ago.
I need to find time to buy some dresses.
Things have piled up so much that I originally wanted to postpone discussing the renderings of the Intercontinental until Monday, but now it is already mid-August, and there are still construction drawings and material lists to be produced. If I don’t hurry up, it may be delayed until September.
Once he returns to the team, it will be inconvenient to contact us and the progress will have to be put on hold again.
So I checked the drawings with Xiaolin before Thursday. After rendering it that night, I received a new email early Friday morning.
She downloaded the document and carefully edited each page.
After checking that everything was correct, he sent a message to Shi Shu, asking him if he could come to the studio that afternoon.
I soon received a positive answer.
She tilted her neck back, stretched her back, and inadvertently glanced at a black off-road vehicle parked downstairs. Because of its tall size, it was particularly conspicuous among a row of business cars.
He paused for a moment, then immediately picked up his phone, wanting to send him a message asking if he had arrived.
After reacting, he paused.
Probably just the same style.
She didn't know whether she was thinking this to comfort herself or to be alert.
My sight was out of control and kept passing by the window intentionally or unintentionally, until 13:50, when I saw with my own eyes that uniquely wide and straight figure pushing the door and getting out of the car.
She sat in the office in a daze.
It wasn't until Tao Qingqing came upstairs and knocked on the door, saying that someone was waiting in the conference room, that he suddenly came to his senses: "...Oh, okay."
The movements were inexplicably stumbling.
I went back and forth twice to get everything together, but in the end I was left with only a few drawings and sat down cautiously.
"Sorry, I didn't notice the time."
She explained softly, spread the blueprints on the table, and asked casually, "Have you been here long?"
"fine."
Shi Shu said truthfully: "A few hours."
Su Tu opened his lips: "..."
I was surprised at his frankness, but it also meant that he was trying to hide what he had already discovered.
Shi Shu didn't know whether he had seen through her or didn't care much. His dark eyes were filled with oppression and he looked at her with a clear purpose: "I just happened to have something to tell you."
Su Tu was stunned: "Then why don't you come up?"
Shi Shu: "It's about time, it can wait."
After all, they have to meet today, so it's better for her to come to him than for him to go to her.
At least not so stressful.
If Su Tu knew what he was thinking, he would definitely tell him, "Why don't you look at yourself now? Who wouldn't feel stressed after seeing this?"
She didn't run away immediately, which shows that she has a good mental state.
“…”
She clenched her palms, feeling a little uneasy for no reason: "Then what do you want to tell me?"
Once some words are said, the situation may become less controllable.
He didn't want to affect her original plan, nor was he in a hurry, so he slowed down his tone and said, "Let's look at the plan first."
After hearing this, Su Tu became even more nervous: "..."
Her mentality is like someone suddenly runs up to her and says that they have bad news to tell her. When she opens her mouth to ask what the bad news is, the other person says: Go to sleep first, I’ll tell you tomorrow.
"hold head high…"
She hesitated for a long time before calming down and turning on the LCD TV.
Fortunately, the expected assumption that "the plan would be rejected in advance before it even started to be looked at" did not happen. Not only that, the negotiations went exceptionally smoothly.
Basically, after she introduced the overall style, explained the pros and cons of the details, and why she chose the current approach, he nodded on the spot.
In the end, she was still worried and confirmed again: "So now, are you sure you want to use this draft to start drawing the construction drawings?"
Shi Shu had no doubt about it: "Yeah."
Su Tu nodded, his guardedness faded away, and a hint of relief emerged on his face, finally overcoming the difficulties. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, "The construction drawings and material list will be ready in about 10-15 days. If you plan to start construction before September, you can start looking for a construction team now."
Then he asked again: "Have you contacted the right person?"
Shi Shu looked at her smiling brows and saw her tense jaw loosen a little. He had a feeling that today's timing wouldn't be too bad.
As for construction, he obviously hadn't planned to this point, and the little knowledge he had about design was not enough to support the construction stage.
Moreover, he actually intended to wait for her to decide.
Seeing him silent, Su Tu quickly added: "I don't mean anything else, it's just that this style requires relatively high craftsmanship. In addition to purchasing high-end main materials, a better construction team is also very important."
"It would be best if you've found one yourself. If not, I can help introduce one, but the specific details should be discussed between you two. I won't get involved."
It is generally believed that designers will receive kickbacks from various parties, and if they participate in construction, their profits can even double.
But she didn't, and didn't want to create such a misunderstanding.
Shi Shu directly overturned her concerns: "What if I want you to participate?"
Su Tu was stunned: "Huh?"
Shi Shu said frankly: "I don't know much about this aspect."
"I'd rather trust you than rely on luck."
Su Tu didn't know how to respond, his eyes and tone were both: "...Oh."
Let her introduce herself.
Why do you have to be so formal...
Shi Shu assumed she had agreed, and cast his gaze down for a moment before calling her again, "Su Tu."
“…”
His voice was deep and magnetic, and everything he said was very serious, especially when he suddenly called her name. There was always a secret electric shock feeling that made her back stiff and she held her breath unconsciously.
She didn't ask him what he originally wanted to say to her, but she already had a premonition that he was about to say it.
"I'm almost back on the team."
“…”
"I'm going to K City for training in September to prepare for the World Cup in October, which will end on October 18th."
“…”
No matter how stupid Su Tu was, he could hear it.
This is reporting to her.
She didn't want to think too much, but her heartbeat became agitated, her ears felt hot, and her mind wasn't so clear.
After a long while, they finally managed to find an excuse to excuse themselves: "Are you worried that if there are any problems after work starts, they won't be able to handle them in time?"
"Don't worry, I will definitely help you keep an eye on the construction site..."
"no."
Shi Shu rejected it outright, and put it more bluntly: "I just wanted to tell you this."
“There is no wedding room.”
"No one else."
"I just want to ask you for a design."
Su Tu: “…”
Her expression was frozen, her heartbeat becoming increasingly erratic. She had no idea how to understand these words when she heard the desperate voice say:
“It’s National Day a few days before the competition.”
"Do you want to go and see it?"
