Chapter 146 What is the meaning of love
"Unrequited love is not love.""Huh?" Hu Youyu turned his head and saw that Chen Mo had stopped beside him on an electric tricycle at some point.
"A relationship starts with mutual consent and ends with only one party's consent." Chen Mo said in a slightly bleak tone, sitting astride the electric tricycle.
"No, why are you here? When did you come?" Hu Youyu was still a little unresponsive.
Chen Mo got off the electric tricycle and looked at the woman who was walking under the bridge. "Hongdou couldn't leave, so she asked me to pick up the new tenant. I guess it's the one with the suitcase."
"As for when I came."
[On the long bridge in the ancient city, people are like a sea of cars, your smile is like light, illuminating me]
Chen Mo listened to the brisk melody in his mind, turned his head and looked at Hu Youyu, and said with a mischievous look: "Just when you were attracted by her beauty and said that you were in love."
【So this is what love looks like. 】
"."Hu Youyu didn't expect that the thought in his mind just now was actually spoken out loud, and it happened to be heard by someone. He suddenly felt a little socially dead.
However, Hu Youyu still pretended to be calm and did not forget to defend himself: "It's called love at first sight, not lust at first sight."
[Just admit that a smile can captivate the whole city, and once you see it, you will never forget it]
"Yeah." Chen Mo nodded perfunctorily and looked at the other people who stopped nearby. "Look, did they also fall in love at first sight?"
Beautiful things always attract people's attention. Apparently, Hu Youyu was not the only one who discovered the beauty. There were also two or three tourists passing by who noticed the scene.
The water flows gently under the stone bridge, willows sway on the bank, ducks play on the water, and a beautiful lady walks slowly across the bridge. Just then, a gentle breeze blows, ruffling her long black hair like a waterfall.
This situation and this scene are so beautiful.
Some people stopped to admire, some couldn't help but press the shutter of the camera to record it, and some were being pulled by their girlfriends by the ears and asked if it looked good.
Hu Youyu opened his mouth, not knowing how to refute, as if they were indeed "birds of a feather".
Chen Mo patted Hu Youyu on the shoulder and said, "It's okay. It doesn't matter what it is. It won't hinder your pursuit of a good partner."
"No, I haven't said anything yet." Hu Youyu inexplicably felt like he was being spied on.
"You didn't say it, but I heard it." Chen Mo said with a smile, "Don't say that I won't help you. I'll give you a chance later and let you take people to the courtyard."
Hu Youyu looked at the electric tricycle next to him and asked, "Where did you get the driver's seat?"
"It's Aunt Agui's." Chen Mo said.
Hu Youyu blinked and said, "Are you planning to use this to pick up the girl?"
It's not that I dislike her, but you can see that the girl has dressed up carefully, wearing a long flowing dress, and she is dressed beautifully for the trip, but you let her sit in the back of a tricycle as soon as you get up. This is a bit incongruous, isn't it?
"There's nothing we can do. We came here so suddenly that we can't get a shuttle bus from the village in a short time." Chen Mo shrugged.
"But you know what, this thing is really fun to drive in the village. It's as easy to drive through the streets and alleys as if it were no one's home."
Chen Mo patted the chair, still very satisfied, "How about it, I'll let you show it later?"
Hu Youyu was really moved when he heard that. Riding a beautiful woman on a tricycle is quite romantic.
But after checking the time, Hu Youyu said helplessly: "I still have to go to the city. It's too late."
When he went to Youfeng Bistro to buy coffee just now, he stayed there for a while longer and now he is a little behind in time.
"Then there's nothing we can do." Chen Mo gave up.
While the two were chatting, the woman had already walked down the bridge and was looking around.
Chen Mo raised his hand and waved, then walked forward and asked, "Hello, are you the tenant who booked the Feng Courtyard?"
"Yes, hello, my name is Su Qingya."
Su Qingya looks gentle and delicate, but she is very cheerful when she speaks.
"My name is Chen Mo. Hongdou has something to do and can't leave, so I'm here to pick you up." Chen Mo explained.
"I know, she told me." Su Qingya raised her cell phone.
"Okay, give me the luggage."
"Oh okay, thank you."
Chen Mo helped take the luggage and the two walked back to the tricycle.
Seeing this, Hu Youyu also took two steps forward.
Chen Mo helped introduce, "This is Hu Youyu, also a tenant of our courtyard. We just happened to meet here."
"Hello, just call me Lao Hu." Hu Youyu smiled "reservedly" and extended his hand.
"Hello, Su Qingya."
Su Qingya glanced at the hand Hu Youyu extended, hesitated for a moment, then also extended her hand and shook it briefly.
Hu Youyu felt the cool touch of his fingertips, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose.
Then, Hu Youyu gestured to the guitar on his back and invited enthusiastically:
"I'm a resident singer at a bar in the ancient city. If you have nothing to do later, you can come and play."
Su Qingya smiled and said, "Let's do it another day. I want to walk around the village first."
Hu Youyu did not give up. "It's okay. Whenever you want to go to the ancient city, you can always find me. I can be your tour guide."
"Okay." Su Qingya smiled and nodded.
"Then I'll leave first. I'll welcome you back in the evening."
Due to time constraints, Hu Youyu didn't want to delay any longer, so he chatted briefly for a few words and then waved goodbye.
Chen Mo smiled and said, "Old Hu is like this, always enthusiastic."
Su Qingya raised her eyebrows, "Are you so enthusiastic towards everyone?" "I am enthusiastic towards everyone." Chen Mo nodded, and quickly added, "But I am especially enthusiastic today."
Su Shuya nodded and smiled.
Chen Mo first put the suitcase on the back of the tricycle and wanted to explain the situation:
"Well, there is no shuttle bus at the moment, so you can only..."
"Then I'll sit in the back too, right?" Su Qingya said.
Without waiting for Chen Mo to say anything more, she lifted her skirt, got into the car swiftly, then laid her suitcase flat and sat on it.
"Um, yes."
When Chen Mo saw Su Qingya got into the car in a heroic manner, he swallowed back the words he wanted to explain.
Originally, Chen Mo wanted to say that if they didn't want to sit in the back, then he could just drive slower with the luggage and follow, as the distance wouldn't be far.
Unexpectedly, this girl is very straightforward and not at all shy.
"Let's go quickly." Su Qingya urged, and she seemed quite happy riding the tricycle.
"Oh ok, then you sit down."
Since there was no need to waste any more words, Chen Mo started the car and drove the people to the courtyard.
"Wow~~"
Su Qingya felt the wind blowing towards her, took off her hat, let her long black hair flutter in the wind, raised her hands and shouted happily.
Seeing this, Chen Mo smiled and asked, "You're so happy, did you quit your job or break up?"
"Huh? Why do you ask?" Su Qingya asked curiously.
"Most people who come here to stay for such a long time do so for these two reasons: either to escape from city life or to escape from interpersonal relationships," Chen Mo explained.
Su Qingya suddenly realized, but was puzzled and asked: "But resigning and breaking up, which of these two things is worth being happy about?"
Chen Mo shrugged, "As long as it is a choice made by one's own initiative, everyone should be happy."
Su Qingya thought about it, "What if it's passive?"
Chen Mo listened and nodded, "It looks like they broke up."
"Oh? What do you say?"
"If you leave your job involuntarily, you will normally feel negative emotions, such as resentment, dissatisfaction, grievance, unwillingness, confusion, etc. Because people need benefits from their work. Giving up voluntarily is one thing, but having your financial resources cut off is absolutely another."
"Then will you be happy after breaking up?" Su Qingya asked back.
"If it's a passive breakup, well, love is the most complicated thing, so it's not surprising that people would be in any kind of stress state."
Su Qingya was silent for a moment after hearing this, and suddenly said with a bright smile:
"I took the initiative to break up, so I'm happy."
[I asked why the girl sent me a text message, but you kept silent with your head down without explaining.]
Chen Mo glanced at Su Qingya, who was smiling like a flower, from the rearview mirror, then listened to the sad melody in his mind and shook his head secretly.
[Should I believe that you love me very much and don't want to be perfunctory with me, or should I understand that you don't want to save anything.]
"The sunset is so beautiful--" Su Qingya stood up by holding the back of the front seat and shouted.
"Hey, don't stand up, it's dangerous." Chen Mo reminded.
"It's okay, I'm happy." Su Qingya laughed heartily.
Chen Mo shook his head helplessly, slowed down the car, and looked up at the orange sky.
As the sun sets in the west, the sky fills with rosy clouds.
"Huh? Why are you slowing down? Drive faster, I want some fresh air." Su Qingya said dissatisfiedly.
Chen Mo pretended not to hear. There are thousands of ways to travel, but safety is the only one.
"Drive faster~~" Su Qingya put her hands to her mouth and shouted to Chen Mo in front of her.
Chen Mo turned his head and said unhappily, "Hold me steady first and sit down."
"Okay." Su Qingya had no choice but to sit back and hold on regretfully.
[I let go, I give up my seat, pretending to be carefree, who knows how reluctant I am.]
"Sit down, speed up, speed up." Su Qingya urged again.
Chen Mo had no choice but to increase the speed a little, and sighed, "If you fall down later, I will definitely suspect that you are here to scam me."
"I'm so beautiful, it's not a pity to try to scam me. I have to choose honey trap anyway." Su Qingya smiled heartlessly.
"Besides, I'm so pretty, it won't hurt to touch you."
Chen Mo pulled the corner of his mouth, "I have a girlfriend, and she is prettier than you, thank you."
"Is it true?" Su Qingya didn't believe it.
"You'll know when you see me later."
"Okay, I'll have to take a closer look then."
After he finished speaking, everything suddenly became quiet, with only the sound of the wind.
Su Qingya stopped cheering and jumping for joy. She lifted her hair, quietly felt the evening breeze, and stared at the fiery setting sun in the sky, lost in thought.
[I love you so much, so I didn’t cry or say anything]
There are 80,000 words in the world, but the word love is the most hurtful.
