Chapter 230 Su He 'Fishing'

In Nancheng City, at 5:30 pm, Lin Mo sat in a coffee shop on the first floor of Wanda Commercial City, with an iced Americano in front of him.

Before him stood a slender figure, her hands supporting her on the table, leaning forward, her pretty face staring intently at Lin Mo, the corners of her mouth slightly upturned, transforming her into a crooked-mouthed dragon king.

"Oh my, I heard someone even cried. Tell me, did they confess to their crush and get rejected, or did their crush marry someone else?"

"A grown man crying like that scared my second aunt so much that she called me herself and asked me to bring you out to relax and ask what happened. Isn't it embarrassing?" My cousin Su He looked down at Lin Mo and said with a smile.

It turned out that his parents were very worried after seeing what happened that afternoon, because Lin Mo was no longer a child and would cry at the drop of a hat.

Even his mother, Zhou Min, had forgotten the last time she saw her son shed tears. Seeing his expression like this, it was no wonder she was worried.

When asked, Lin Mo wouldn't answer. He just stayed silent in his bedroom, unwilling to speak. When asked repeatedly, he would simply say that he was fine.

He didn't even come out for lunch in the afternoon, saying he had no appetite. You know, Lin Mo didn't eat when he left in the morning, which made Zhou Min very worried.

The couple exchanged a glance and realized that this was not a good idea. After thinking about it, they decided to call Su He over.

Firstly, the siblings have a good relationship, and secondly, they are both young people. There are some things their son doesn't talk to them about because of a generation gap or simply because he doesn't want to. But he can talk to Su He, who is also young, about these things.

The process went smoothly. In less than half an hour, my cousin Su He drove over, went upstairs, dragged him out of the bedroom without saying a word, and put him in the car.

The actions were simple and brutal, but very effective. No wonder he was a Class A war criminal; his style of doing things was so thoughtless and always unexpected.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo reached out and pushed his cousin Su He's face away: "Seriously, are you bored? What, didn't you go to meet your blind date today?"

Logically speaking, his aunt shouldn't have let his cousin off so easily. She should have had a very fulfilling few days, so why is she still so idle?

"When my second aunt called me, I was having dinner with my blind date. As soon as I heard that something happened to you, I abandoned my blind date and ran away. Am I a good cousin? Don't forget me when you become successful in the future. I'm counting on you for wealth and glory!" Su He, whose face was being held down and pushed away, was about to get angry, but for some reason, she held back and said with a smile.

Lin Mo: ? ? ?
"I'm not your boss, do you think I'd make you rich?"

Lin Mo was somewhat surprised. Did his cousin realize that he was already a millionaire with a net worth of several million and had the potential to become a capitalist in the future?

Little did he know that he was overthinking things. Su He was concerned about Liu Ruyan. As long as her cousin could get his hands on that woman and preferably get her pregnant, he would be set for life. As her cousin and Liu Ruyan's classmate, how could she have the nerve to watch her still be treated like a slave?

She realized after going on blind dates these past two days that she was actually more attracted to lust than to money.

She couldn't let go of the handsome man, and she still wanted the money. What could she do? She could only set her sights on Liu Ruyan. After all, getting rich through a man was far less practical than relying on her cousin, who was, after all, her own cousin.

"Then you don't need to worry about it, I'll leave it to you," Su He said, waving his hand dismissively.

Lin Mo:
"I don't believe you. You didn't have a good date with someone and used me as an excuse to run away, did you?"

Su He:
Seeing her silence, Lin Mo sneered: "As expected, my dear cousin, you said you were worried about me, but doesn't your conscience hurt? Tell me, what kind of monsters did you go on a blind date with today?"

Upon hearing this, her cousin Su He scratched her head somewhat embarrassedly and said guiltily, "Well, you can't entirely blame me."

The blind date I met this time came from a decent family and had some assets. He also had a good income, but he worked in another city.

But he works as a lawyer, and he immediately started interrogating me about my assets. He even wanted me to quit my job and come work for him. Although he was a very nice person, he had a lot of superiority in his words. He also said that if we were to get together, we should sign all sorts of agreements before getting married, from major issues like the division of property after a divorce to minor issues like the proportion of daily household expenses.

"Screw him! It's not like I'm lacking business partners. Besides, with his job and personality, if we really divorce, I'd be lucky to leave with nothing. So when I got my aunt's call, I just told her my cousin got hit by a car and I had to go check on him."

Lin Mo:
Okay, okay, I was just saying "eom" for a second, and you're actually telling other people I got hit by a car? If I stayed home for two days without leaving the house, wouldn't you be telling everyone I'm dead?!
"Alright, stop talking about me. Tell me about yourself. What happened that made you, a grown man, stop eating and drinking and even shed tears?" Cousin Su He quickly changed the subject when she saw Lin Mo's expression.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo remained silent for a while before slowly saying, "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that a close high school classmate of mine passed away from illness a couple of days ago."

"Oh? Because of illness? So young?" Cousin Su He exclaimed in surprise, then thought for a moment and continued, "Is it a man or a woman?"

"It's a girl, we're deskmates."

Lin Mo then slowly began to speak, recounting what he knew, even including the fact that Jiang Xia had prepared gifts for everyone in the class.

After hearing this, her cousin Su He sighed deeply. Holding Lin Mo's phone, she looked at the two videos that Jiang Xia's mother had sent on her behalf. Her hand trembled, and while Lin Mo wasn't paying attention, she took the opportunity to send one to herself.

"Did you have a crush on her in high school?" Cousin Su He handed the phone back and asked casually.

Lin Mo shook his head: "We're just deskmates, but we're very close."

"Then she must have feelings for you, right? You yourself said that she left you the most things. It's easy to guess what a little girl is thinking."

Then you realize this information and suddenly feel a flutter in your heart. Although you never had those feelings for her, what she did at this moment touched you. Most importantly, she passed away, leaving your impression of her at its most beautiful moment.

Especially since you have a good relationship with her, it makes you feel a mix of emotions—not exactly moved, not exactly attracted, but definitely filled with a deep sense of regret and self-reproach, right?

Upon hearing this, his cousin Su He thought for a moment, then tapped her fingers on the table as she spoke her thoughts.

Lin Mo: ? ? ?
"No way, cousin, are you a tapeworm? How could you guess that?"

He was genuinely shocked; as the person involved, he himself couldn't accurately describe his own feelings.

"Tch, what's the big deal? Otherwise, why would I be your cousin? You don't need to feel guilty or regretful. This is the girl's own choice. It's just puberty, and it's easy to have a vague feeling of attraction to someone of the opposite sex. This isn't love."

Besides, they didn't just leave you without saying goodbye; you're not the only one who's disappointed.

"You're just too inexperienced, young people like you. But don't worry, your emotions come and go quickly, you'll be fine in a couple of days," said her cousin Su He with a very relaxed expression.

But in reality, he was extremely anxious; this was not a good sign.

Although his cousin said that he and the girl were just classmates, she watched the video and it was obvious that the girl treated his cousin differently. Most importantly, his cousin also noticed the girl's feelings.

If this isn't resolved in time, even if Lin Mo continues her normal life in the future, she will still have some lingering issues regarding her love life.

After all, no matter how good a living person is, they can't compare to a dead person.

Thinking of this, she immediately forwarded the two videos she had copied from Lin Mo's phone to Liu Ruyan, along with a caption.

Oh, what a pity! Life is so fragile!

Liu Ruyan: [???]
