Li Haoyu couldn't help but want to put his hand on Xu Hongdou's shoulder. ♨♖ ➅❾ⓢ𝔥ù𝓍.Ćⓞ𝕄 😲😳

He really had an impulse to pull Xu Hongdou into his arms.

Xu Hongdou couldn't help but say, "Can you please be more careful with your hands?"

She couldn't help but purse her lips, then said with a slightly flushed face, "You're driving, can't you concentrate a little?"

Li Haoyu was reminded by Xu Hongdou.

He could only suppress his burgeoning thoughts for the time being.

After all, there are countless roads, but safety is the most important.

The two soon arrived at their destination.

After all, Fengxiaoyuan is not far from these places.

Yunnan is definitely worth a visit as a tourist destination.

Prices are not high, and hotels are also affordable.

The climate is pleasant, allowing visitors to experience all four seasons on one mountain and different weather every ten miles. Li Haoyu had also traveled there before, and he still vividly remembers the sweet and sour pineapple rice.

In particular, Li Haoyu and Xu Hongdou avoided the peak period when they set off.

Therefore, there are relatively few pedestrians on the street.

The two arrived at a primitive village preserved along the ancient Tea Horse Road, which had a strong sense of history.

However, it's not really suitable for staying for a long time because the village only has tie-dye shops and teahouses, not many residents or guesthouses, and there are no amenities nearby.

But this did not diminish the awe the two felt. Li Haoyu had visited various ancient towns across the country, but he was still captivated by the primitiveness, simplicity, and inherent artistic atmosphere of this place.

Most importantly, this place isn't crowded like other places, probably because it hasn't been posted online as a popular tourist attraction.

There is no hustle and bustle of ordinary ancient towns here, and each shop is unique, with its own characteristics. Most importantly, the shop owners here all run their own shops.

So they weren't in a rush, and there was basically no hard selling when they went shopping.

Everyone had a smile on their face, and many shop owners were quietly smoking their homemade cigarettes by the roadside. Whether you buy anything or not, you can chat with the shop owners and have a pleasant shopping experience.

A shop owner selling hairpins enthusiastically promoted nearby attractions to the two of them.

She said that next to the ancient street is a century-old stone bridge and the Heihe River that meanders beneath it. In the morning, it is shrouded in mist, like a fairyland. When the sun comes out, it is tinged with a yellow hue, which is exceptionally beautiful!

It's almost sunset now; if you don't have any plans, you could go take a look.

Since the shop owner was being so hospitable, Li Haoyu couldn't be stingy.

He also bought a sandalwood hairpin.

Although it doesn't look particularly impressive, it's clearly a serious old man.

Li Haoyu said to Xu Hongdou, who was standing next to him, "Here, let me put this on for you."

Xu Hongdou was stunned for a moment.

She didn't refuse; she simply turned her head obediently to the side.

The result was far better than Li Haoyu had expected. The already beautiful Xu Hongdou suddenly gained an extra touch of elegance because of this small embellishment.

This prompted Li Haoyu to blurt out, "Sure enough, whether an accessory looks good or not depends on how pretty the person wearing it is."

Xu Hongdou glanced at Li Haoyu and said, "Alright, enough talk. Let's get going, or we'll really be late."

Li Haoyu nodded in agreement.

He just didn't see what happened after he turned around.

Xu Hongdou couldn't help but smile slightly.

The two strolled around for a while longer before getting up to continue their exploration.

The two soon arrived at the place recommended by the shop owner, but there was no road repaired there.

The two of them had no choice but to get out of the car and walk over.

However, Li Haoyu couldn't help but sigh.

This place might really be God's own backyard.

Here, there is never any gloomy, smoggy weather that makes you feel suffocated. Whether it's a sunny day or a rainy day, the air is fresh and clear, and there is a different kind of beauty in every situation.

This truly made Xu Hongdou, who had been living in the capital for a long time, relax a lot. Xu Hongdou couldn't help but say, "This place is so beautiful. Why do I feel so relaxed after only being here for a short time?"

Li Haoyu couldn't help but laugh and said, "The environment is certainly one aspect, but more importantly, this place is not like the capital, where everyone seems to have a clockwork mechanism installed in their back."

"To put it bluntly, this place is much more tolerant than the capital."

"You can also make friends easily. You can meet up for coffee or tea anytime, and no one will talk to you about school district housing or stocks. You'll only have light and pleasant topics, so it will naturally be much more relaxing."

Li Haoyu thought that Xu Hongdou would be somewhat angry about his mention of the capital. After all, her goal had been to settle down in the capital, and she had been striving for that for over ten years.

Unexpectedly, Xu Hongdou nodded in agreement with Li Haoyu's words, which was quite unusual for her.

She said softly, "Sometimes, we're so busy, never stopping, anxious, sleepless... but we forget what's really important—health."

"So it's nice to stop and space out for a bit."

Seeing this, Li Haoyu said, "Alright, the artsy young lady route isn't for you. If you want to daydream, you can do it another time. After all, if you slow down any further, we'll really be late."

Xu Hongdou heard Li Haoyu say this.

She couldn't hold back any longer and wanted to give Li Haoyu a good beating.

However, Li Haoyu dodged it with a nimble movement.

Seeing this, Xu Hongdou also chased after them.

The two of them started running around playfully bickering.

A long pursuit battle ensued.

Li Haoyu was harboring a lot of bad intentions.

At his speed, he could have easily left Xu Hongdou behind. (New 69 Bookstore →)

Li Haoyu's speed was just a tiny bit faster than Xu Hongdou's.

Just as Xu Hongdou was about to give up, Li Haoyu made a few sarcastic remarks. "What, you've already gone all out? I've only just started warming up."

"Or you could just give up, and I can pretend nothing happened."

Li Haoyu's encouragement energized Xu Hongdou, and she even touched the hem of his clothes several times. However, Xu Hongdou was still running out of strength.

Just when she was about to give up.

She noticed that Li Haoyu in front of her had finally stopped completely.

Xu Hongdou thought to herself, "You've finally run out of steam, haven't you?" But when Xu Hongdou reached Li Haoyu's side, she found that Li Haoyu was still motionless.

So she followed Li Haoyu's gaze.

Xu Hongdou was also captivated by the sight.

Wheat fields reflect the distant mountains, forests blend with the sea, green waves and seas of flowers surge like a tide, and farmland is crisscrossed with paths. The unique and beautiful scenery has become a popular destination for photographers.

Especially since the two were in a high position, looking out over the wheat fields from the air, it was like a magnificent oil painting depicting a land of abundant resources and fertile land.

The two stood in the wheat field, a gentle breeze caressing their cheeks, the air filled with the fragrance of wheat. The wind rippled through the wheat, like dancing musical notes singing the joy of the impending harvest.

Xu Hongdou couldn't help but exclaim, "Is this the legendary 'wind blowing through wheat fields'? This is the first time I've ever seen it in person. Nature is truly a marvel of craftsmanship."

Xu Hongdou was clearly in a much better mood.

She even forgot that Li Haoyu had just angered her.

Her tone was slightly lighthearted: "Then let's put in a little more effort! It's already this beautiful. Won't the sunset tonight be breathtakingly gorgeous?"

This made Li Haoyu, who was behind the scenes, sigh:

Travel can really heal people, at least temporarily.

Some landscapes are beautiful to behold, and some troubles are relieved to let go. The most healing things are the scenery of this world, allowing the heart to roam freely between heaven and earth.

All the confusion can be let go!

There will always be things in life that you want to escape from.

For example, the hopeless future you feel, the colleagues you feel entangled with, the boss who always finds fault with you...

And then there's the person who left you without hesitation, a failed love affair, and a defeated struggle.

Then, I always want to find a touch of novelty and uniqueness in the daily routine, and try to attract the busy people around me to escape from their own world.

To give myself some time to catch my breath.

Traveling is indeed a good method.

However, a spontaneous trip won't really change you much; when you come back, you still have to face all the realities of life! Unless you're really rich or have enough financial resources to support it.

Just like Xu Hongdou.

First of all, Xu Hongdou is a "three-no" person: no house, no car, and no family.

This means she has no mortgage, car loan, or family burdens, so she can quit her job to relax when she's physically and mentally exhausted. These three conditions alone are enough to deter many people from taking out second mortgages.

But Xu Hongdou should actually have quite a bit of savings, at least 800,000 if not a million. Plus, she has an older sister who is a general manager in Shanghai. Xu Hongdou can really be considered a small-time rich woman.

This amount of money may not be much in the capital, but in a place like Yunmiao Village, it's enough to live comfortably, as evidenced by Xu Hongdou's later opening of a guesthouse.

Li Haoyu noticed that the fatigue from driving was completely swept away by the beautiful scenery.

He glanced at Xu Hongdou beside him and saw her waving excitedly. Li Haoyu asked directly, "Don't just focus on being happy, aren't your hands cold?"

Xu Hongdou: "…………"

She's really scared of being tricked by Li Haoyu lately.

Therefore, Xu Hongdou was on high alert. Xu Hongdou glanced at Li Haoyu, then pulled her hand, which was resting against Li Haoyu, back into her pocket.

She said casually, "Actually, it's not that bad."

Seeing this, Li Haoyu came to Xu Hongdou's other side and said something.

"And what about this hand?"

As he spoke, he made a gesture as if to take Xu Hongdou's hand.

Li Haoyu's action startled Xu Hongdou, who quickly put her other hand into her pocket as well. She held both hands firmly against the wall, even pulling her neck back.

This caused Xu Hongdou to walk like a penguin.

This amused Li Haoyu. He laughed and said, "Do you think I'm that scary? Is it really necessary to exaggerate like that? What kind of person do you take me for?"

After Li Haoyu finished speaking, he took out a pair of gloves from his pocket and handed them to Xu Hongdou, saying, "Wear these and you won't be cold."

Now, it was Xu Hongdou who felt a little embarrassed.

"Actually, you don't need me to bring it. You can use it yourself."

Before Xu Hongdou could finish speaking, Li Haoyu pulled out another pair of gloves from another pocket.

"You don't think I'm that old-fashioned, do you? That I'd take off my coat in this freezing weather and give it to a girl, only to freeze myself half to death. I'm not crazy."

"Besides, are gloves really that expensive?"

"Why can't I just buy two?"

Xu Hongdou heard Li Haoyu say this.

She was speechless. She had initially felt a little embarrassed, but now there was no need. Xu Hongdou simply put on the gloves Li Haoyu handed her.

I must say these gloves are quite warm.

After Xu Hongdou put it on, she felt much warmer.

Thank you.

Xu Hongdou hadn't finished expressing her gratitude.

Li Haoyu took his hand directly.

Her expression froze for a moment, and she was about to say something.

But Li Haoyu led her forward.

Li Haoyu acted as if nothing had happened, saying, "We need to hurry, the sunset there must be absolutely stunning. Otherwise, we'll really miss the best time to watch the movie."

Xu Hongdou looked at Li Haoyu's serious expression.

She wasn't sure for a moment.

Was Li Haoyu's action unintentional or deliberate?

Because the pavilion was located on a hillside, both of them could see it. Xu Hongdou was also looking forward to the beautiful sunset, and the gloves provided added protection.

She suddenly didn't feel so ashamed anymore. So Xu Hongdou was too lazy to struggle anymore, since the hand-holding would only last five or six minutes at most anyway.

Xu Hongdou thought that if she just endured it, it would probably pass.

So his lips moved, but he didn't say anything.

Little do they know that a girl's descent into infatuation often begins with these small things.

…………

The two of them jogged all the way to the pavilion.

Xu Hongdou tried to secretly pull her hand away several times during the process, but she was unsuccessful.

"We've finally arrived. Let's choose a suitable angle."

This viewing pavilion is quite large, but perhaps because it's not peak tourist season and the place doesn't seem to be very famous, it's really only known to locals.

So the place was completely empty. Xu Hongdou was carefully choosing a spot in front, while Li Haoyu watched all this with a smile from behind.

As the sun sets, thick, irregular layers of white clouds drift across the pale blue sky. They move slowly and leisurely, almost imperceptibly.

In the afterglow, the white clouds seemed to be dyed, and the overlapping cloud layers began to spread in all directions, with a faint orange-red light, like a thin veil of clouds, making people want to touch it.

A gentle breeze rippled across the water. From a distance, the reflection of the sky and the colorful clouds truly gave it the feel of a mirror of the sky.

Xu Hongdou was still immersed in the beautiful scenery.

Li Haoyu suddenly spoke up, saying, "Having seen countless sails pass by, none are the one I seek; the setting sun casts a gentle glow on the flowing water."

He noticed that Xu Hongdou didn't react much.

Li Haoyu nudged Xu Hongdou with his elbow and said, "Let me test you. Do you know the next line?"

Xu Hongdou was stunned.

But she really tried hard to remember.

But Xu Hongdou still couldn't figure it out in the end.

She frowned. "It sounds familiar, but I really can't remember. Just reveal the answer."

Li Haoyu said succinctly, "Actually, I don't know either, I was just asking you casually."

Xu Hongdou was truly helpless.

Are there really people this speechless?

If you don't know the answer, you have to ask someone else.

This is absolutely ridiculous!
