Chapter 33: Comfort
Huo Yan followed Ning Shuyi into the elevator without saying a word, and saw that Ning Shuyi reached out and pressed the button on the top floor, his expression did not change, and he stood quietly beside her.
Although it has been a while since he moved here, he was busy with work during the day, and he had to do physical training after work, and when he came back, Huo Yan just went to Ning Shuyi's house to eat, and then went back upstairs to rest.
It was the first time he had been to the top floor.
When he got out of the elevator on the top floor, he found that this place was similar to the top floor where the murderer Chang Junchao was hiding in the Deng Qingrong case that he had dealt with before, and after arriving here, there were stairs that continued to lead to the top.
Following Ning Shuyi all the way, it quickly became clear that the roof here was designed by the property like a sky garden, with cement and brick benches and a promenade.
Ning Shuyi walked to the guardrail on the side, the guardrail was relatively high, with her height, only most of her head above her mouth could be exposed, Huo Yan was much taller than her, and the guardrail was better on her chest.
At this time, it is already dark outside, this building is relatively high, standing on the top of the building and looking into the distance, under the inky black night, it is the sea of traffic lights in the city, from this angle, it seems to be lively and deserted.
Ning Shuyi stared outside without saying a word, there was no expression on her face, if it weren't for the unusual ups and downs in her chest, I was afraid that it would be difficult for anyone to see her mood at this moment.
Huo Yan didn't say anything, looking at the light in the distance, his eyes flickering brightly and darkly.
The two of them stood like this for a while, Ning Shuyi came back to his senses, turned his head and looked at Huo Yan next to him, one of his arms hung down at his side, and he could pull himself by a move.
"Don't worry," Ning Shuyi laughed, reached out to pat him, and teased, "I won't think about jumping off the building!"
Look at the height of this guardrail, let alone jumping off a building, I have a hard time climbing over this guardrail!"
Huo Yan didn't smile, but looked at Ning Shuyi: "Are you in a bad mood?"
Ning Shuyi did not deny it, after all, a person with a normal mental state, who would not rest at home at night and run to this top floor to blow the cold wind!
"This is a nice place I stumbled upon." Ning Shuyi replied with a smile, "When I just moved in, there were still people on this top to do activities, but later I found that the place was so big, the activities couldn't be opened, it wasn't interesting, and slowly no one came."
I found it really boring to come up during the day, but at night, it's nice to see the night view from upstairs, especially when I'm bored, so I can calm down after staying here for a while."
"The view is really good." Huo Yan nodded, reached out and touched Ning Shuyi's earlobe, which was cold.
"The sun goes down and it's cold outside, if you don't have anything special to go to, you can go to me, I'll order takeout, and when your classmate named Fang Zhiyang leaves, you can go home and rest." He said to Ning Shuyi, and his tone sounded more like he had already made such a decision than a discussion.
Ning Shuyi didn't wear much, and he did feel a little chill at this time, and he didn't object to Huo Yan's proposal: "Then what if Fang Zhiyang doesn't leave?"
"Then you will live upstairs, and I will go to the unit to sleep in the duty room." Huo Yan replied very simply, "There are always more ways than difficulties, and it is impossible for a living person to be suffocated by urine."
Ning Shuyi was amused by his words and nodded: "Okay, then let's go down!" I'm hungry too!
Not to punish myself for the mistakes of others, that's my basic principle!"
The two of them took the elevator down again and came to the house rented by Huo Yan, Huo Yan opened the door and invited Ning Shuyi to enter.
The last time Ning Shuyi came over, Huo Yan and Ning's father were still repairing the damaged things here, and the house was a little messy.
As soon as the door opened at this time, Ning Shuyi was startled, feeling as if he had accidentally strayed into the barracks.
Huo Yan doesn't have many things, it's simple, the basic furniture in the house was all purchased by Ning's father before, the small coffee table and fabric sofa in the living room, and a single chair, all of which are clean now.
There was no clutter on the coffee table
On the sofa, the lace sofa towel specially selected by Ning's mother according to her own taste is also spread very smoothly.
"Good fellow, if my mom sees this, she'll be moved!" Ning Shuyi walked around the living room and couldn't help but sigh, "Our whole family can't make half of your clean!"
Huo Yan took his mobile phone to order takeout, and the order was sent out, only then did he raise his head, realize that Ning Shuyi was praising himself, smiled faintly, and motioned for her to sit casually.
Ning Shuyi thought about it and sat on the single-back chair.
It's not that she's polite, it's mainly that the sofa towel is so neatly spread out, meticulous, and even the lace is extraordinarily well-proportioned, which gives her the illusion that it's a sin to sit wrinkled.
Huo Yan also sat down, he was used to having a straight back, so he was also sitting there with a straight posture, and the back of the sofa seemed a little redundant.
"Meals are expected to be delivered within thirty minutes." Huo Yan glanced at the prompt on his mobile phone and put his mobile phone on the coffee table, "Why do you hate that Fang Zhiyang so much?"
Ning Shuyi didn't answer and asked, "How much do you think I hate him?"
Huo Yan thought for a while: "I said I hated him, maybe I used the wrong words, I think you are disgusted with him, and you may even hate him a little."
Ning Shuyi looked at him with some surprise: "Why do you think so? Did I just react inappropriately?"
"No, you're acting decently." Huo Yan looked at her, "But one thing is different.
You are usually very warm to everyone, but only Fang Zhiyang is not just cold, it is not just cold, and it even freezes in an instant.
The person who can make you treat with such an attitude is certainly not a good person."
"So sure!" Ning Shuyi's mood was indeed not very good, but he didn't want to make a sad face and block others, but at this time, he was aroused by Huo Yan's words, "Are you considered because you know me, so you are preconceived and your position is not objective enough?"
"It's not a job job, you don't have to be objective." Huo Yan shook his head, his tone was firm, "Between you and outsiders, my subjectivity itself is the greatest objectivity."
Ning Shuyi had to admit that when he heard these words at this time, he really had an inexplicable feeling of being comforted.
She was also surprised that a person like Huo Yan, who was moody and always seemed to maintain a sense of alienation from everyone, would say such words to comfort people.
