This mouth is really subtle, and it may be because of the subtlety that it only touched the lips shallowly, so no one felt uncomfortable. It didn't even seem to have happened at all, what to do, neither the eyes nor the conversation seemed like something intimate had just been done.
Step by step is a very comfortable process, as it should be.
Tao Xiaodong was really aggressive last time and pressed the fast-forward button, which was still fast for them at that time. Fast so uncomfortable, so uncomfortable.
Now that I live together every day, I can clearly feel that Tang Suoyan is continuously paving the bridge between them at a not fast but very comfortable speed. The process is in his hands. If Tao Xiaodong is fast, he will sink, and if it is slow, he will take the area.
This makes their relationship very stable and stable for a long time.
If two people are out of control in a relationship, it will be dry and fire at the beginning, but sooner or later the missing part will have to be filled. Enthusiasm fades away and rationality returns, and the foundations that have been ignored should be reworked.
Tao Xiaodong himself is also a rationalist, but his rationality has been honed in the social circle and business field over the years, and if he is not rational, he will suffer. The more I get in touch, the more I realize that Tang Suoyan's rationality and calmness are in his bones. He was born like this, calm and wise. Being around him makes me feel at ease.
During this time, Tao Xiaodong was so down-to-earth that his younger brother didn't care.
Tao Huainan called him on Christmas Eve and said, "Brother! Happy Christmas Eve, you and Dr. Tang!"
Tao Xiaodong was sitting on the sofa eating fruit, when he heard this questioningly asked, "It's Christmas Eve?"
"That's it!" Tao Huainan deliberately only said the ending, and then laughed, "Brother, did you forget us?"
Tao Xiaodong said "um": "I forgot about it."
"Okay!" Tao Huainan seemed to be in a good mood, and his tone was always raised, "Just be happy!"
"I think you are quite happy." Tao Xiaodong said to him.
"I'm alright, I'm mainly excited when I think that you are about to have a partner!" Tao Huainan asked him after finishing speaking, "Is it about to happen or is it already there?"
Tao Xiaodong is too lazy to pick up the phone while eating fruit, so he only has one hand, so he often turns on the speakerphone during this time. Tang Suoyan sat next to him and was eating fruit. Tao Huainan said this sentence before Tao Xiaodong wanted to turn off the speakerphone. No need to close anyway, the two looked at each other, Tao Xiaodong said, "It's about the same."
"Almost what?" Tao Huainan hummed and asked.
Tao Xiaodong said again: "It's almost the same."
Tao Huainan pushed his brother to Dr. Tang, so he couldn't rest assured. When I was young and ignorant, I hoped that his brother would never get married or fall in love. He hoped that his brother was his own. Later, I understood, and I began to hope that his brother could be himself, have someone he likes, and have a good life.
In recent years, Tao Huainan has been hoping that his brother can find a good person to settle down, but his brother never seems to have such thoughts. Now that it is finally there, Tao Huainan wishes them better than anyone else.
Tao Xiaodong chatted with him for a while, and heard Chi Cheng asking Tao Huainan to turn on the air conditioner over there. Tao Huainan doesn't like the air conditioner and feels dry, so he always turns it off secretly. The body is not so good, and it is easy to catch a cold when it is cold. Chi Cheng couldn't find the remote control and told him not to hide it.
Tao Xiaodong said, "You two hurry up and go to bed, and let Brother Ku study not be too late."
Tao Huainan said yes, then said good night to his brother and hung up the phone.
"Xiao Nan is sensible." Tang Suoyan told him, "You took him well."
"He always thinks a lot," Tao Xiaodong said softly, thinking of Tao Huainan, "I'm too sensitive. Sometimes I think he's like a small animal or something. He's close to himself and wary of others."
Tang Suoyan tapped his eyes with his bent index knuckles: "because of it."
"Yeah." Tao Xiaodong nodded, "I'm scared."
Tang Suoyan knew Tao Huainan's situation very well, but her beautiful eyes were full of regrets. Tang Suoyan told Tao Xiaodong: "Sooner or later, there will be a clinical plan, and scientific research has been making progress, but it still takes time."
There are also plans now, but the effect is not obvious and can only be slowed down. Tao Xiaodong already knows this too well. He turned his head to look at Tang Suoyan, nodded and said, "Then I'll wait for Dr. Tang to cure my brother."
This is also a bit of a joke, Tang Suoyan said: "It's also my brother."
Tao Xiaodong blinked, and the corners of his eyes were very soft when he laughed.
Every year, people in the Christmas shop have to go out and play wild things. There are so many people up and down, most of them are young people, and it is really annoying. Tao Xiaodong's hands are like this. He can't drink wine, so he just wants to drink two sips to make up the atmosphere.
Tang Suoyan was also there. Others didn't dare to make trouble with him. No matter how many times they met, they felt that this person was immortal, and it seemed disrespectful if he joked too much. So they went back after dinner, leaving the space for them, so as not to let it go. Rhubarb can't go, he has to accompany these little ancestors.
The Christmas atmosphere on the street is very strong and beaming.
Tao Xiaodong said: "At the time of college, I was in the Academy of Fine Arts, and Tian Yi was in your medical school. At Christmas, he, I, and Lao Xia, the three of us went to a bar. That was the first time I went to a bar, my freshman year. winter."
Just passing by a bar, Tao Xiaodong suddenly remembered what happened more than ten years ago when he saw it.
"I was still poor at the time, and the two of them were just ordinary students. The three of us were just making fun of it anyway. Two little bees came, very pretty, and we started drinking when we sat down. We thought they were going to make a table, Thinking it was trying to hang us, Lao Xia and Tian Yi, the two fools, were very enthusiastic, so they drank it. I didn't dare to drink, because they drank too much and I had to get them away. "
Tao Xiaodong still wanted to laugh when he thought about it, he was so stupid. He continued: "Afterwards, the two of them drank almost, stood up and left, and went to the next table. Only then did we know that the wine they both drank is ours, and the person is the little bee in the store, who specializes in coaxing People drink and earn commission."
Tang Suoyan had never been to a bar at all, so he didn't know much about it. He listened to Tao Xiaodong and laughed.
"At the checkout, I drank more than 2,000 yuan. At that time, more than 2,000 yuan was quite a lot. I was so poor and I definitely couldn't afford it. Besides, I didn't drink it, I didn't give it, and I slapped it."
Tang Suoyan asked, "Who gave it in the end?"
"There's no money to give, and those two stupid sons didn't agree. They just drank half of it. Why should they give it to others? I don't care anyway. I turned around and left as soon as I heard more than 2,000."
He leaned back in the chair and laughed twice: "The two of them later jumped out of the bathroom on the second floor and ran away, because they have been worried about this for a long time, and they are guilty of being thieves, and they are afraid of finding your school."
Tang Suoyan also laughed in a low voice, and then asked him, "Aren't you afraid?"
"I don't. I'm from an art academy. I'm not as afraid of shame as they are. You are all top students there. If you're really messing with school, don't go to them."
Tao Xiaodong wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by the ringing of the phone.
Tang Suoyan's mobile phone was placed in the middle. He drove the car and asked Tao Xiaodong, "Who?"
For some reason, he already had a premonition of who he was before he even looked at him. Tao Xiaodong glanced at the screen and said, "Tangning."
Tang Suoyan said after two seconds, "Let it go."
The phone kept ringing in Tao Xiaodong's hand. Tao Xiaodong looked at Tangning's name and said, "It doesn't seem very good."
Tang Suoyan glanced at him, Tao Xiaodong said, "What if something happens."
Tang Suoyan answered without saying a word, Tao Xiaodong would definitely not answer it privately, this is Tang Suoyan's phone after all.
When the phone is quiet, the car is quiet and a little stuffy.
But the silence didn't last long, and the phone rang again soon after.
Tang Suoyan didn't answer, Tao Xiaodong kept holding the phone, which made his palms numb.
In fact, until now, Tao Xiaodong didn't know what Tangning wanted. He had looked for himself and Tang Suoyan, but he didn't say anything. It was certain that he didn't want Tang Suoyan to be with others, but he was restrained from beginning to end, except for Tang Suoyan's birthday. Outside of that day, he hadn't lost control, nor had he shown an outrageous attitude.
He is quite contradictory.
The only explanation Tao Xiaodong can think of is that he wants to save, but he can't let go of his arrogant self-esteem.
When the bell rang for the third time, Tao Xiaodong said, "Brother Yan, what if something really happened?"
Tao Xiaodong thinks a lot. He has a younger brother who needs to worry about all the year round. He always has to consider all kinds of possible situations. His thinking has almost been finalized. Tangning lived alone. If he had any trouble, the first person who thought of calling for help would definitely be Tang Suoyan. There are too many unpredictable things in life, Tao Xiaodong dare not let him call him like this.
Tang Suoyan said, "I didn't answer because I was afraid of what you would listen to. I didn't avoid you on purpose. It's not suitable."
"I know." Tao Xiaodong said, "I don't care about this, take it? I'm a little worried."
Tang Suoyan looked at him, Tao Xiaodong flicked his finger and connected. He turned on the speakerphone and handed the phone to Tang Suoyan.
Tangning called out "Brother Yan".
Tang Suoyan asked, "What's wrong?"
His tone was calm, and Tangning asked him, "Where are you?"
Tang Suoyan said, "Outside."
Tangning asked, "You yourself?"
Tang Suoyan said no and asked him what was the matter.
Tangning suddenly said something inexplicable at first, but it was very straightforward, with four simple words: "...I regret it."
Tao Xiaodong turned his head to look out the window, the Christmas lights illuminated the night very brightly.
It was rare for Tangning to have such direct words from Tangning's mouth. Tang Suoyan didn't ask him what he regretted, but said, "Don't regret it, look forward."
After saying this, he took the phone from Tao Xiaodong and hung up.
"So I don't want to meet you in front of you." Tang Suoyan said in a deep voice, "No matter what he says, it's inappropriate for you to listen."
Tao Xiaodong smiled and said "it's okay".
Tang Suoyan turned the car into the community, Tao Xiaodong said softly, "Why do you regret it now?"
Tang Suoyan asked him, "Do you still hope he regrets it sooner?"
"I don't want to." Tao Xiaodong laughed after saying that, "I won't pretend, I'm afraid he will regret it now. Before I eat it, I'm most greedy, and after I eat it, I'm afraid that others will take it away from me."
"What are you eating?" Tang Suoyan also smiled slightly.
Tao Xiaodong said in his heart that I know what it's like to be nice to people, and I've tasted it.
So he really didn't understand Tangning: "Doctor Tang has only regretted it until now."
Tang Suoyan stopped the car and unbuckled his seat belt. After putting out the fire, he said to Tao Xiaodong, "No one can take it away, so keep it for yourself."
After he finished speaking, he got out of the car, and Tao Xiaodong got out of the car after reacting, catching up with Tang Suoyan and holding his hand directly. Tang Suoyan laughed at himself and said, "Others are too lazy to ask for it, so you are afraid of stealing and robbing."
Tao Xiaodong clenched his hand tightly: "Whoever is too lazy to ask for it is too arrogant. I want it anyway."
Tang Suoyan said, "I see. I really want it, you said it."
