Chapter 193 Fishing
After parking the car in a roadside parking space, the two got out and walked towards the teahouse not far away.

Li Baoer hugged Yao Chi and teased her from time to time to relieve her inner anxiety.

The words just now almost came out of her mouth, but then she remembered that she was a woman and should be reserved.

But the words have been spoken, and it is too late to take them back now.

I don’t know what’s good about falling in love?

She's not even in a relationship yet, but she's always making people upset and emotionally uncontrollable.

I ordered two cups of tea, a fruit platter, and a plate of snacks.

Picking up a piece of dessert, Li Baoer still tried to put it into the child's mouth, but Yao Chi kept his mouth closed and remained indifferent.

Completely giving up, Li Baoer smoothed the little thing's fur and said, "This little guy really doesn't want to eat."

Su Cheng smiled and said, "As for the snack in your hand, no other dog would eat it, let alone my Yao Chi."

Li Baoer glanced at the snack in her hand, smiled awkwardly, and touched the little thing again.

Her heart is in turmoil now.

Su Cheng was not in a hurry, "Godmother should have started delivering meals yesterday, right?"

Li Baoer nodded. "Yesterday was Saturday. More than 70 people worked overtime at Fuyuan Technology. My mother sent 80 meals over."

Su Cheng said: "It just so happens that September 1st is a Saturday, so it would be good to give godmother a day to get familiar with it."

Li Baoer nodded. "Yesterday was the first time I cooked for so many people. I slowly got used to it."

Pursing her lips, Li Baoer couldn't hold back any longer. She really wanted to know the answer. "Su Cheng, let's have a good chat."

Su Cheng nodded, "What do you want to talk about?"

Li Baoer said directly: "Don't pretend, you know what I want to talk about."

Su Cheng smiled, "What am I pretending to be?"

Li Baoer said directly: "Do you dare to say that you didn't come to Manhua Manor to find me today on purpose?"

"I did come to Manhua Manor to find you."

Su Cheng nodded, "But what I think may be different from what you think."

Li Baoer asked: "What's different?"

Su Cheng looked into her eyes and said, "Your mother is my mother's best friend and my godmother. You are my godsister. I just don't want to see you make mistakes."

Li Baoer was puzzled, "How could I go wrong?"

Su Cheng explained: "Don't think I can't see that you are already anxious and ready to throw away everything."

"Am I anxious?"

Li Baoer denied it flatly, "Why am I so anxious?"

"You want to give your godparents an explanation as soon as possible, or you want to experience the bitterness of love."

Su Cheng said: "You just want to find a similar man to fall in love with and get married."

Li Baoer lowered her head, "Do I have it?"

"How not?"

Su Cheng asked back: "I don't know how many blind dates you went on later, but when we met here that day, I could see that you were very unhappy."

"If it's just to cope with it, to be perfunctory, then why bother?"

"In a marriage without an emotional foundation, the couple appear to be in harmony but are actually alienated from each other. There is no happy smile from the bottom of the heart. What's the point of bothering?"

“Who is the one who suffers in the end?”

"It's you! It's your parents!!"

Li Baoer retorted: "How do you know I won't be happy?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Don't forget that I just got divorced, so I have quite a lot of experience in this area."

Li Baoer couldn't refute it, so she could only say dryly: "I didn't say I'm getting married right away."

Su Cheng said: "I can probably guess your current situation. You have a certain sense of crisis, and psychologically feel that you owe your parents, so you want to make them happier."

Li Baoer did not refute this time because she really thought so in her heart.

She really owed her parents too much. If she could find a boyfriend, fall in love, get married, and have a cute baby, they would be very happy, right?

Having children start their own families and enjoying the company of grandchildren, this should be the greatest happiness for every middle-aged or elderly parent, right?
Of course, she was right.

As parents, Luo Shufen and Li Guohua will definitely be happy when their daughter gets married and has a child.

But all this is based on the premise that their baby daughter is also happy.

If you just deal with things in a perfunctory manner, you will only feel depressed and have a bad temper.

In such a situation, no one in the family would be happy. They would all be depressed and extremely dull.

"Although we had a small misunderstanding earlier."

Su Cheng continued, "But you are my sister, and I can't bear to see you make mistakes step by step and jump into the fire pit."

"Then tell me, what should I do?"

Li Baoer's dry lips moved slightly. "I used to be busy with work and neglected my parents. Now I just want to make them happy."

"You can move back and live with your godparents, and take the initiative to help with the housework after get off work."

Su Cheng said slowly: "During the weekend, you can also take them out to play, climb mountains, and see the water."

"If you do these things well and they are happy, you can also feel relatively relieved, adjust your mentality, and understand what you really need."

"You can also understand what you should do with the rest of your life, instead of making a decision that you know is wrong and then rushing forward."

“Only when you get your head broken and bloody do you feel regret and pain.”

Li Baoer was silent for a moment, "I know you are right, but I can't do it."

Su Cheng was curious, "I gave you the correct answers, and you said you can't do it?"

Biting her lips gently, Li Baoer said slowly: "I have never been in love, and I don't know how to be in love."

Su Cheng smiled and said, "This is simple. As long as you think she is good and have a good impression of her, then you should be bold enough to approach her. After spending more time together, you will slowly understand the feeling of love."

Then, Su Cheng asked, "Sister Baoer, do you have someone you like?"

Li Baoer blinked, and her originally cold face turned slightly red. "Are you talking about now or before?"

Su Cheng said: "Tell me everything, I will help you analyze it."

Li Baoer hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I once liked a senior brother."

Su Cheng knew what was going on, so he continued to ask calmly, "Is he married now?"

Li Baoer shook her head, "He's dead!"

"Forehead?"

Su Cheng was stunned for a moment, "On official business?"

Li Baoer nodded, "When he was fighting with a criminal, he was accidentally stabbed in the aorta."

"call--"

At this point, Li Baoer let out a long sigh, "There's actually nothing wrong between him and me, it's just that he was able to beat me back then."

"Actually, I don't know if that counts as love, but I paid extra attention to him during that time anyway."

"When I learned that he had died, I was sad for several days."

"But it only took a few days. I soon forgot about him."

Li Baoer laughed at herself and shook her head, "Maybe I don't like him at all, I just think he can beat me, and I want to win him back."

Su Cheng nodded, "So what kind of boyfriend do you want?"

Li Baoer glanced at the man opposite her and said, "I told you not to laugh at me."

"Today is the day for the two of us to make peace and put aside our past grievances."

Su Cheng laughed and said, "How could I possibly laugh at you?"

As he spoke, he picked up the tea in front of him and said, "Let's have a drink. After we finish this cup of tea, all our previous grievances and unhappiness will be written off. We can be good friends and good siblings!"

Seeing Su Cheng's bright eyes and sincere tone, Li Baoer also picked up the tea bowl and said, "Then let's write it off!"

The two clinked their glasses and then each took a sip.

After drinking, the man and the woman couldn't help but look at each other, with a hint of smile in their eyes. In the end, Su Cheng couldn't help but laughed out loud, "Hahaha——"

Li Baoer also laughed, "Hahaha——"

After drinking this cup of tea, she inexplicably felt that the pressure on her body was relieved a lot.

I felt relaxed and happy, as if the world had become wider.

After laughing for a while, Li Baoer slowly stopped talking and took the initiative to say, "My requirements for boys are not high. They just need to be handsome, elegant, and about 1.8 meters tall."

Su Cheng smiled and said, "So you are still a person who cares about appearance."

Li Baoer nodded and admitted generously, "I am not bad looking myself, so I will naturally not look for someone who is ugly."

Su Cheng asked, "Do you have any other requirements, such as salary?" Li Baoer shook her head, "I don't have any requirements in this regard. I just want a decent job and be able to support myself."

After a pause, Li Baoer continued, "I have a house and a car, so I don't need him to prepare anything."

Su Cheng smiled and nodded, "Is it that simple?"

Li Baoer shook her head, "One more thing."

Su Cheng knew this was crucial and important, "What point?"

Li Baoer said: "It means he can beat me!"

Su Cheng frowned slightly, "What's the point of being able to beat you?"

Li Baoer said confidently: "If he can't even beat a woman like me, what's the use of him?"

"Forehead?"

Su Cheng was shocked again. No wonder Li Baoer had never been in a relationship.

How is it possible for him to be handsome and be able to beat her?

Those who can beat her are generally dark-skinned, muscular, with numerous scars on their bodies, and are not handsome at all.

No handsome guy can beat her.

Those muscular men in the gym are all beautiful on the outside but rotten on the inside, and none of them can fight.

Finally, she found a handsome guy who could beat her, but he died early.

Let alone beautiful souls and handsome movements. If we really have to talk about this, I would like to ask everyone here, who is not handsome or beautiful?
So Li Baoer fell into a vicious circle. She didn't like the handsome guys who couldn't beat her, and she didn't like the ugly guys who could beat her.

Seeing Su Cheng confused, Li Baoer smiled embarrassedly, "Is my request too much?"

Su Cheng shook his head. "Your request is not excessive at all."

Li Baoer picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. "You don't need to comfort me. I know my request is a bit excessive."

"This is your own request. It doesn't affect anyone else. It's not excessive at all."

Su Cheng said: "Of course, you shouldn't expect to easily find a boyfriend who meets the above standards and marry yourself off."

Li Baoer nodded, "I feel much better after speaking out my true feelings."

She now regards Su Cheng as a friend.

"Others ask for a certain salary, but you ask for someone to be handsome and able to beat you?"

Su Cheng shook his head and said, "You didn't even mention the most important aspect of my personality. Aren't you afraid that someone will beat you up and then abuse you?"

Li Baoer smiled and said, "I haven't really thought about this."

"Who can tell clearly about emotional matters?"

Su Cheng said leisurely: "If fate really comes, it doesn't matter whether he is handsome or not, and it doesn't matter whether he can beat you or not. What matters is the feeling of being moved."

Li Baoer nodded and said nothing.

The senior brother she was talking about was indeed handsome and could beat her, but their limited interactions were dull and tedious.

Even when he died, she wasn't too sad, and it got over quickly, as if it was the death of an ordinary friend, not someone she liked!
Although it met her requirements, it never made her truly moved.

Following his own pace, Su Cheng smiled and asked, "You mentioned the person you liked before, but you haven't mentioned the person you like now?"

Without answering immediately, Li Baoer picked up the watermelon on the table and took a bite. She glanced at Su Cheng's face, which was as sharp as a knife. He was confident and steady, and there was always a faint smile on the corners of his mouth.

Not daring to look any further, Li Baoer turned her head to look at the blue Fuhe River. There were many people fishing leisurely, and there were many fishing enthusiasts surrounding them as spectators.

Li Baoer suddenly felt like one of those spectators who watched others fishing. Although she liked fishing, she had neither the time nor the patience. She would rather watch others fishing than buy a fishing rod and try it herself.

I’m afraid of trouble, so I always bring a lot of tools with me every time I go fishing.

I’m afraid of sitting there for an entire afternoon and getting nothing done.

Afraid of not being able to catch any fish and being laughed at.

But what is there to be afraid of?
She knew that those fishermen often returned empty-handed, but there was no disappointment on their faces every time they packed up their tools, and the same thing happened the next day.

What's more, sometimes they don't eat the fish they catch. They either release them or give them to onlookers who like to eat fish.

They just love fishing, enjoy the process of fishing, look forward to the float moving gently, and raise the fishing rod to embrace the unknown joy.

When the fish does not float to the surface, no one knows the size of the fish on the hook or what kind of fish it is?

This is another kind of enjoyment - anticipation and surprise!

In life, you can almost foresee at a glance what role you will play and what abilities you have. Most people live their lives step by step and in a dull manner.

There are few things that they can look forward to and get excited about, but if they choose fishing, there are countless expectations and surprises every day.

This is why fishing is such a popular outdoor sport and people are obsessed with it.

With an inexplicable throbbing in her heart, Li Baoer really wanted to be a fisherman instead of being a spectator who watched others fishing on the shore without any expectations or surprises.

Looking at Su Cheng, Li Baoer said, "Su Cheng, shall we go fishing?"

Su Cheng was slightly stunned, "Now?"

The smile on Li Baoer's face was brighter than ever before, "Now!"

Su Cheng shook his head. "Fishing also requires skills. If we go fishing now, you will get nothing."

Li Baoer stared at the man without blinking, "I just want to experience the feeling of fishing. It doesn't matter whether I catch any fish or not."

“Don’t think fishing is fun.”

Su Cheng shook his head, "In fact, that process was very painful."

Looking at the other side of the river, Su Cheng continued, "I used to love fishing. I would sit there for a whole day or even an entire afternoon. I was very excited and never felt bored at all."

"But now let me go fishing. If there are fish biting, I can hold on. But if there are no fish biting, I can't stand sitting for half an hour."

"Nowadays, we live in a fast-paced society, people are restless, and we face many temptations."

“It’s easy to get an initial intention, but hard to keep it!”

Li Baoer smiled and said, "I don't know how to fish, it was just a sudden idea."

Su Cheng said: "I guessed that you don't know how to fish, and your thoughts often deviate from reality."

Pointing at the fisherman on the other side of the river, Su Cheng asked, "Do you believe it or not, if I take you fishing today, you will never want to fish again in your life?"

Li Baoer was curious, "Why?"

Su Cheng said: "Fishing should be done in the morning and evening. If we go fishing now, we will just sit there bored for the whole afternoon and get nothing."

“I just want to go fishing.”

Li Baoer said: "As for whether I can catch a fish or not, I don't care. Look at those people, many of them can't catch any fish, aren't they just standing there, watching the fishing rods?"

"They can stay there because they have caught fish before and they have expectations in their hearts."

Su Cheng shook his head. "If it were you, you'd never fished before, and you'd never caught a fish. Once your enthusiasm wore off, you'd start to get restless. You'd either want to play with your phone or drink water and eat snacks."

Li Baoer laughed and said, "Three minutes of enthusiasm, but also three minutes of gain and happiness!"

"What can you gain in three minutes? You may have some happiness, but you will have a lifetime of regret afterwards."

Su Cheng still shook his head, "From now on, you will no longer be interested in fishing, and you will not want to go fishing anymore."

Li Baoer lowered her head and said nothing. She really didn't think so much about it. It was just a spur of the moment action.

The two of them were just talking about fishing, but were they really fishing?
"Sister Baoer, didn't you say you were free next Wednesday?"

Seeing that Li Baoer was silent, Su Cheng smiled and said, "If you really want to go fishing, let's go fishing on Wednesday."

"Then we'll find a reservoir, go there early, catch some fish, and when we catch them, you'll have a lifetime of happiness!"

“Excitement, satisfaction, and confidence!”

“When you have gained something, you will truly love fishing from the bottom of your heart and experience the real fun of it.”

Su Cheng laughed as he said this, "Once you start fishing, you'll never be in the secular world again. Amorous bait, heartless hook, cut the love line, and drift away without any feelings. The merciless wind rages wildly, my body is like a rock and my heart is like iron."

Li Baoer couldn't help but chuckle when she heard this. "You're full of jingles. Do you want to take the postgraduate entrance exam?"

She was actually looking forward to fishing now.

As they got to know each other better, Su Cheng started to brag, "I am also an old fisherman. I started fishing when I was five or six years old. After so many years of fishing, I still have some experience."

Li Baoer asked curiously: "What's the biggest fish you've ever caught?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "A big carp with red lips, weighing more than 100 kilograms."

Li Baoer's pretty face turned red, and she glared at the man in front of her fiercely, "Don't say dirty words!"

She is a police officer and has heard countless obscene things about this.

Su Cheng took out his mobile phone helplessly and handed a photo to the other party.

Li Baoer took a closer look and found that the person in the photo was Su Cheng himself, with blood on his lips. Looking more carefully, she found a black fish hook on his upper lip.

"How about it?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "That's right!"
