Chapter 39 39 The farthest 2 cities: Singapore is red,

Singapore is sunny and sunny, the sky is high and cloudy, but there are thundershowers.

They went all the way from New York without even changing their clothes, and it was extremely hot.

Changi Airport was full of people coming and going, the flowers were red and green, Mark looked outside with a frown, took off his coat and draped it on his arm, and the cuffs of his shirt were still hot when he rolled them up.As they walked out, they kept an eye on the people at the pick-up desk.

Mark took the Eduardo suit jacket and helped him untie the cuffs. His cufflinks today are small flowers, which are very difficult to untie. Mark untied it and said casually: "You should wear your shirt well. It's hot and cold. It's easy to catch a cold."

"It's going to be hot - my shirt is soaked in five minutes."

Mark was distracted and answered him: "It's good to be wet."

Eduardo gave him an almost terrified look.

It wasn't until Mark realized what he had just said, and he wanted to defend himself, he said, "I was just distracted."

"You can get to this level of distraction, what were you thinking just now?"

Mark was at a loss for words. He felt the best response was to let the subject pass by without talking.Fortunately, at this time, Eduardo saw the person who came to pick up the plane, so he took Mark and walked over.

The person who came was a young man, dressed in very tropical clothes, and he was still very eye-catching even against the background of Singapore's colorful flowers and willows. He held his sign high and was looking around.

Mark saw the content of the sign and couldn't help repeating, "The best and most handsome boss in the world?"

Eduardo:  …

Eduardo defended strongly: "Anyway, I didn't ask him to write like that."

"Your assistant?"

"Technical Support."

"intern?"

"I'm the leader," Eduardo said, smacking Mark with his elbow, and said, "He's been our tour guide these days—don't talk, smile, he's looking at you."

They were talking, and they had already walked in front of the young people. Eduardo introduced them, "Lancelot, this is Mark, my love, Mark, this is Lancelot, my cto, we will be here in the past two days spent together."

Mark felt that Lancelot looked at him with hostility after Eduardo introduced himself.

Lancelot felt that Mark looked at him with eyes full of guard and deep anger.

After the introduction, Lancelot went to drive, and Eduardo and Mark walked slowly towards the exit.

Halfway through, Mark suddenly said, "Let him go back."

"what?"

"I mean, let him go back and let's do our own shopping."

Eduardo didn't know why he said that, and said, "Don't be like this Mark, we need at least one person to drive."

"I can drive."

"Don't you hate driving - wait, because of 'Lancelot'?"

"—" Mark ignored him.

"Why do you have this expression? Did I hit the spot? Hey, did I hit the spot?"

"—"

"They're just called the same name—are you going to avoid all Lancelots?"

"—"

Do they all look at you the same way?Mark said in his heart.He took two quick steps, not wanting to hear Eduardo's smug laughter behind him.

The atmosphere of this road trip was weird. Lancelot was still too young to talk to Eduardo naturally under Mark's low pressure. He didn't dare to say a word soon, and the audience was quiet in the second half.

When they arrived at the hotel, Eduardo asked Mark to register, and he said a few words to Lancelot at the door before sending him back.

While waiting for the elevator, Mark stood with an unnatural expression, and Eduardo knew that he was a little shy because of the topic just now.

Eduardo said a few words to him, and he answered them concisely, just one or two syllables. The more awkward he was, the more Eduardo wanted to joke with him. When they finally arrived in the room, Mark's expression Already froze.

Lancelot brought them seasonal clothes, which were carried in Eduardo's hands. After entering the room, Eduardo shook the paper bag on his hand to indicate that the clothes were in his hands.Mark pretended not to hear, and turned on the central air conditioner when he entered the room.

"Mark, are you angry?"

"No."

Still a single note, still looking angry.

"Because I was joking?"

"No."

"Don't be angry."

"—"

He was actually not angry, because Eduardo told Lancelot to go back.Although I really don't want to admit it, but if I had to add a definition to his awkwardness, it would probably be 'shyness after being jealous'?

"Mark, speak to me quickly."

"it is good."

Eduardo was also a little confused. He thought it was Mark's reaction to Lancelot's incident, and Mark really realized that he was very insecure that day.

Thinking of this, Eduardo smiled and said, "Let's make a bet."

"?"

"Bet me that a word can make you stop angry."

"I am not angry."

"Okay, then bet I can get this matter over with a word."

"——" Mark didn't speak, but he didn't object, but he focused on the back, waiting for Eduardo to say that.

As a result, Eduardo didn't say anything, picked up the paper bag for his clothes, and went to the bathroom.

!

Mark hadn't reacted to the sound of him moving until he heard the sound of the bathroom door closing.Eduardo left after talking to him halfway?

Mark listened to the sound of a little shower coming from the bathroom, and had to admit that Eduardo was really angry.But before he could think about it, the sound of the water stopped, and then the bathroom door opened, and Eduardo walked back into the living room.

He was barefoot, his suit had been taken off, and he was only wearing a soaked white shirt. The lines of his collarbone and waist were faintly visible.

"Yes, it's good to be wet," he said.

mark:!

Mark really didn't know what to say to this guy.

Eduardo walked towards him with a smile on his face, the water droplets slid down his thighs one by one, leaving a string of light water marks on the floor, he looked like a siren.

He raised his eyebrows and said, "Did you let this matter pass?"

Mark was speechless.

He walked over, pushed Mark back, pushed him to lie down on the rocking chair in front of the French windows, and sat on one knee on top of him.

Mark supported his waist, afraid that he would fall, and said, "The curtains are not drawn."

Eduardo bent down, kissed his blue eyes lightly, and untied Mark's tie, and said, "We're on the 30th floor."

"In the rocking chair?"

"good quality."

"Aren't you going out for a walk?"

"The Merlion can't run - shut up and kiss."

They kissed quietly in the sunshine of a room. The strong light made Eduardo's eyes look like melted caramel. He was not very good at breathing, and his voice after a long kiss always had a sweet nasal sound.

Mark loves this.

Eduardo put his hands away, hooked the armrest of the rocking chair, moved his waist slightly, and the rocking chair swayed according to his rhythm.

"Cool, isn't it?" He looks at Mark, looking so innocent and so charming, I don't know how he managed to combine the two.

Mark hugged his waist tightly, afraid of his back pain, and said, "Can't absolute victory silence you?"

"Victory can't shut me up, so come and shut me up." He said, kissed Mark's chin, and then giggled.

Mark kissed him, thinking, where did he get all these kiss-seeking tricks.

After the end, Eduardo lay lazily, his face buried in Mark's shoulder and neck, and the two of them discussed the itinerary.asked Mark, who was messing around and didn't really want to go anywhere.

"Cableway? Can you see the panoramic view of Singapore?"

"There are many people."

"Universal Studios?"

"Is Disney the love of your life?"

"Aquarium? Can you see tropical fish?"

"Why not go straight to the Maldives?"

"Seaside Park? Can you watch the sunrise?"

"We can't get up that early."

mark:···

Eduardo looked at him with a smirk.

Mark had no choice but to lower his head and ask him, "Then, does Mr. Savarin have any good ideas?"

Eduardo lay on his chest, resting his chin, and said solemnly: "Why don't we just stay in the hotel~" He blinked hintingly as he spoke.

mark:···

After a moment of silence, Mark continued, "Chinatown?"

"it is good."

Eduardo stood up and went to change.

He thought that there should be fewer people in Chinatown, and the Chinese are relatively cold, so there should be nothing wrong.

However, he really miscalculated the popularity of him and Mark and the development of tourism in Singapore.

Coming out of Chinatown is almost a life-threatening squeeze. Mark is a bit of a clean freak and hates other people's physical contact with him. Eduardo looked at his watch and remembered that there was an art exhibition tonight, so he took Mark to the coast. Want to drive by himself but Mark is not used to right-hand drive in Singapore.

The sea breeze blew in through the window and messed up the hair of the two of them. They walked west along the Ayer Rajah Expressway and looked out of the car window. All they saw were large expanses of rich green and deep blue The sky is full of vivacity, enthusiasm and openness.

Eduardo pointed to the building complex with a head protruding in the distance, and said to Mark that it was the National University of Singapore, the campus was very beautiful, and he had been a visiting professor of the National University.

He sounded nostalgic about that time.

"Is it more beautiful than our university?"

Eduardo smiled: "Don't you also pay attention to this?"

"Let's stop here and go take a look."

Eduardo thought about it for a while and thought it was okay, so they got off the car near there and walked around the NUS. NUS has no walls, so they got off the bus near the cultural center. It was already evening, and the temperature dropped a lot compared to noon. Large clouds of fire hung over the tops of lush trees, and the yellow and purple school badges of NUS could be seen everywhere.There are pairs of students carrying schoolbags on the road.

They passed through the teaching building of the engineering department and continued to move forward. Mark asked Eduardo, wanting to know which is his office building. Eduardo pointed slightly, and Mark looked over there.

Eduardo chuckled and said, "The self-study room of the scholastic school is also in that building. Once I went to class, just in time for ACCA's exam season in June, and there was no place for it. Someone downstairs shouted 'ACCA is an exam. Scam, no job, no girlfriend', as a result, he laughed and ran away as soon as everyone probed."

Thinking about the scene he said, Mark couldn't help laughing, because this is really very university.

"You like it here."

"Very simple."

"The building is beautiful."

"The LH at Polytechnic University is also very beautiful."

"Designed by Thomas Heatherwick."

"How do you know so clearly?"

"I found a lot of designers when planning the new park."

"Frank Gehry later."

"How do you remember?"

"If you have a technical team that wants to catch up with FB in any angle, you will also remember it."

"Didn't you make any new friends?"

"Only students, we have a good relationship."

"paper?"

"Dinner."

"Is it around here?"

"Is it okay in the city?"

"why?"

"Because we're all so poor that we're going to a tax-included restaurant—" Eduardo didn't know what kind of joke he was poking at, and he hammered him not to ask while laughing.

After shopping, they casually walked out along a small path to the gallery where Eduardo was going.They stopped and stopped, and it was already late when they arrived at the gallery. They saw a painting at the entrance, "A Boy Embracing a Snow Ball", which was classical, with delicate brushwork. Xuetuan generally rejects people for thousands of miles, and at the same time reveals a trace of anxiety and loneliness.Eduardo stood in front of the painting and looked at it for a long time.

"Like it?" Mark asked him.

Edward regained his composure, underestimated the painting from various angles, and then said: "I like it very much." He added: "This painting is very similar to your feeling."

Mark watched with him, and he didn't see anything, but suddenly remembered something, and asked him, "Do you remember that projection?"

"The boy chasing the wind in the center of the storm?"

"Yes, it's called "Hurricane Center". I bought it in New York in 09, the year you were injured while surfing."

"—you bought it for me?"

Mark paused for a while before saying, "I didn't realize it at the time, and I forgot about it later. You'll remember when you hurt your hand before."

Eduardo didn't know what to say, he pursed his lips tightly, wanting to laugh a little.

They bought that painting.

The next morning, Eduardo was lazy on the bed and didn't want to get up, so he dawdled until ten o'clock.It took a long time to fly back to New York. They didn't bother to go farther, so they simply went to Orchard Road. Anyway, no matter how they walked, there was Starbucks at the bottom.

Although there are many people on Orchard Road, everyone is here to buy things. The two of them are wearing T-shirts and baseball caps, but no one pays attention to them.

This area is very large. The two of them just walked around without a destination. The ice cream in Eduardo's hand was never broken. He also pointed out a lot of Singaporean local food to Mark, and asked Mark to tell him The taste has a little warning.

"Actually, this is the place I've stayed the longest—the house is too big, and the neighbors are very quiet. If I don't go out to sea on weekends, I'll just sit in the coffee shop here for a while. It looks lively when there are so many people."

Then, he pointed to Mark and said, there was Zara before, which was next to Hermès. In [-], it was the monstrous rainy season in Singapore. There was a long line at the door, which only increased and never decreased, from lunch to dinner time.

So you watch this from lunch to dinnertime?Mark couldn't help complaining about him in his heart.

He imagined the scene he was talking about, the streets, the merchandise, and the flow of people, and then he suddenly realized that Eduardo was lonely at that time.

He has no friends, lives alone, and spends a lot of time in the city center when he is not working, because there are so many people and it looks lively.

Except for Riley, he didn't seem to have anyone close to him, and everything he told him was from his own perspective, and no one else appeared.

Eduardo seemed to have noticed what Mark was thinking. He gave a big smirk, then changed the subject and said, "Do you know what I'm thinking? I'm thinking, how should the accounting be calculated if the goods are damaged due to force majeure? "

mark:···

Mark really didn't know what to say.

"Hey, what are you doing with that stare? This question is very simple. It just involves management expenses. Of course I didn't think about it all afternoon."

His smirk is especially cute.Those lonely pasts seem to pass away all of a sudden.

In the face of dissatisfaction, he learned to face it playfully, and the little fragility under his smile made him more lovely and charming.

Mark used to hate growing up, he hated adults for the same reason he was always more patient with kids.But now it seems that time will also bring some good things, such as allowing you to learn to deal with things peacefully and maturely.

He and Wardo are both. Looking back now, he seems to be able to describe his psychological changes in the past eight years. He can clearly feel his perspective, control, paranoia, and guard against everything because of trauma.

Just like "The Boy Embracing the Snowball".

Probably because he really came out, those things in the past, he can now calmly recall, no longer feel pain, just startled, 'so I was like this at that time'.

That's fine.

He used to think that happiness was one huge moment, million member day, super cool press conference, buying an asteroid, but those moments were just a moment, and all the rest of the time was 'still away from the goal. There is a torment between "far away" and "can I surpass myself in the next goal?"

Perhaps, happiness is peace, you are not anxious about achievement or escaping from loneliness.

It's you who can accept yourself, that you think you're good but you want better, not that you're desperate for success and think you're worthy of love only if you're successful.

It's like the giant eagle that has been biting your flesh and blood since birth has finally stopped. You are covered with scars, but you are confident that you will heal.

You just know.

There is a very interesting thing, that is, after I have been sweet every day for the past two days, my luck has improved a lot.

As soon as I went out, I saw a small yellow car in good condition at the gate; the mobile phone was turned off, but the small yellow car was unlocked;

Tell Xueba that luck has been very good for the past two days, and those who have not yet come talk about the next thing, Xueba said, 'Look, studying hard is rewarding'.

I told him it might be because I was too sweet.

He said, is there a necessary connection between the two?Didn't your logic test teach you something?

But studying hard has nothing to do with this.

Come on, you are right.

Also, does anyone know what 'chicken thief' means?
