Chapter 177 Plain and Happy

The falling rabbit collects its light, and the distant rooster warns of the dawn.

Chen Mo was awakened by the sound of a rooster crowing. He subconsciously wanted to turn over, but felt like he was being held down by something.

When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Xu Hongdou who was resting her head on his arms, hugging him like a little raccoon, with one foot on his body.

Chen Mo suddenly came to his senses and realized that he was now in Dali.

After getting used to the quiet and soundproof environment of the city, I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable when I return to the village where you can hear the sounds of chickens crowing and dogs barking.

Chen Mo lowered his head to look at Xu Hongdou who was sleeping soundly in his arms. A few strands of hair stuck to her cheeks, her long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and her rosy lips pursed. It seemed that she was having a sweet dream.

As soon as he opened his eyes and saw such a peaceful and beautiful scene, Chen Mo felt that the journey back and forth was worth it.

Seeing Xu Hongdou's quiet and lovely appearance, Chen Mo couldn't help but reach out and pinch her smooth face.

"Hmm~~" Xu Hongdou moaned softly and twisted her body unconsciously, her body soft as a pool of warm jade.

Seeing this scene, Chen Mo almost couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.

However, he still suppressed the urge in his heart.

We have been busy all night last night. The joy of love between fish and water requires sustainable development. We cannot drain the pond to catch fish. There is still a long way to go.

Chen Mo leaned over and kissed Xu Hongdou lightly on the forehead, then gently pulled out his numb arm, moved Xu Hongdou's long legs that were pressing on him away, and got up from the bed.

Xu Hongdou seemed to feel that there was no space around her in her sleep, and she reached out to grab something nearby.

Chen Mo smiled knowingly, stuffed a pillow for her to hold, then covered her with the quilt, picked up the underwear on the floor and put it beside the bed, so that she wouldn't be cold and have to search for it when she woke up.

After confirming that everything was fine, Chen Mo tiptoed out of the room.

When Xu Hongdou woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.

Xu Hongdou stretched lazily and went downstairs. In the yard, she only saw Su Qingya practicing yoga.

"Morning, Qingya."

Su Qingya smiled and said, "It's not early now."

"Yes." Xu Hongdou smiled, "Where are the others?"

"Chen Mo was called by Xinxin. It seems that he was filming some program. The breakfast he bought for you is on the table. He told me to remember to heat it up before eating."

"Nanxing went to the B&B construction site." Su Qingya said with a smile, "She said you must have been very tired last night, so she asked you to sleep more."

Xu Hongdou's face turned red, and she pretended nothing had happened, then turned around and went to the kitchen to heat up breakfast.

After breakfast, Xu Hongdou went out to the homestay construction site.

Chen Nanxing was counting the decoration materials. When he saw Xu Hongdou coming, he looked her up and down.

Xu Hongdou asked curiously, "What for?"

Chen Nanxing said: "The complexion is rosy."

Xu Hongdou was puzzled, "What?"

Chen Nanxing sighed to himself: "Sure enough, water is the source of life. The rain last night moistened the land."

Xu Hongdou understood now and said angrily, "We are outside, what are you talking about?"

Chen Nanxing said in confusion: "What's wrong? I heard from the master who came this morning to transplant the potted plants that thanks to the rain last night, the soil was wet and much easier to dig. What did you think?"

Xu Hongdou knew that Chen Nanxing was pretending to be stupid, and said unhappily, "I don't want to bother with you."

Chen Nanxing sighed, "Oh, I forget my friends when I see a beautiful woman. When my boyfriend comes, I don't want to pay attention to my best friend anymore."

"Yeah." Xu Hongdou nodded and said with a smile, "Since you said so, I'll have to trouble you here."

Chen Nanxing waved his hand to send them away, "Go and be happy."

She said she was going to Xingfu, but actually Xu Hongdou just went to find Chen Mo. Then the two of them went to the evening market together, bought some vegetables and went back to cook a meal for themselves.

After lunch, the two spent a leisurely afternoon in the yard playing with the cat and watering the flowers. In the evening, as the sun was setting, they walked hand in hand to the Erhai Lake to see the Siberian seagulls migrating here for the winter.

It was indeed just a simple and ordinary day, but for Xu Hongdou, these small and specific moments were all happiness.

Chen Nanxing was responsible for arranging dinner and we found a Tonglao Beef Hotpot restaurant.

Chen Nanxing filmed a store exploration video, Chen Mo helped out, and Xu Hongdou was in charge of eating, with the three of them having clear division of labor.

After the meal, Chen Nanxing paid the bill.

Chen Mo wiped his mouth and said in a fake polite tone: "Oh, it's a waste of money."

Chen Nanxing rolled his eyes and said, "You can save me money."

Chen Mo shook his head. "That won't work. The worst thing about visiting a restaurant is that bloggers don't pay for their meals. People who eat for free will say that your evaluation is not objective."

Chen Nanxing chuckled and said, "Then I have to thank you for letting me pay the bill, so that I wouldn't go astray."

Chen Mo smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Chen Nanxing complained, "Hongdou, look at him."

In response to the bickering between the two, Xu Hongdou just smiled and shook her head.

"But, it seems like someone is always inviting me to dinner lately."

Chen Mo touched his chin and it seemed that he had also had a meal at Huang Yimei's place a few days ago.

Chen Nanxing's eyes widened. "How dare you say that? You are obviously the richest one."

Chen Mo said seriously, "Is it possible? That's why I have money."

The richer a person is, the more he spends other people's money.

So the poor get poorer, and the rich get richer.

Chen Nanxing: “.”

Chen Nanxing turned around and said, "Hongdou, you have to awaken the conscience of your capitalist."

Xu Hongdou thought for a moment and said, "In fact, conscience is something that exists and does not exist. It cannot be awakened."

Chen Mo couldn't help but laugh, "My wife is the one who knows everything."

Chen Nanxing couldn't help but smack his lips, "Husband sings and wife follows, you two are really a perfect match."

Good times are always short. The next day, Chen Mo said goodbye to Xu Hongdou, left Dali and flew to Shanghai.

After experiencing large-scale cyber violence in South Korea, Ning Zhihe has returned to China from South Korea, but she did not return to BJ. Instead, she hid in Shanghai by herself.

This is the purpose of Chen Mo’s trip.

People who have not personally experienced cyber violence may find it difficult to understand the psychological impact and mental pressure that victims of cyber violence suffer.

Wanton insults and sarcasm, groundless accusations and slander, require no evidence or even logic.

Chen Mo read the comments about Ning Zhihe on the Korean Internet. Various former "classmates", "colleagues" and other "acquaintances" around him jumped out to reveal information, including past experiences such as sex reassignment surgery and pregnancy.

Transgender and pregnancy, these contradictory and absurd remarks are talked about by the public with relish.

The abuser hides behind the screen and acts with impunity, while the victim has to face all the malice.

Verbal violence can sometimes devastate a person more than physical violence.

Chen Mo can help calm down the public opinion, but the damage Ning Zhihe suffered cannot be undone.

So, at this time Chen Mo was a little worried about Ning Zhihe's condition.

According to the address given by Ning Zhijian, Chen Mo came to an upscale residential area.

But when Chen Mo entered the building elevator, he saw two policemen in the elevator, who pressed the button for the floor he wanted to go to.

Chen Mo's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
