Faced with Qin Hao's accusation, Xie Zhiyao was unable to refute, and could only say: "She obviously admitted the wrong person, and at most I was just following the trend..."

Seeing that Xie Zhiyao dared to talk back, Xie Xiaochun became even more angry: "Brother, if you really don't want to go on a blind date, just say so. How can I explain to others like this?"

"Then I didn't know that we were having a good chat, but Xu Hongdou suddenly came to interfere." Xie Zhiyao muttered in a low voice.

After Xie Zhiyao said this, Xie Xiaochun also looked at Xu Hongdou in confusion: "Yes, Hongdou, why are you joining in the fun?"

In fact, Xu Hongdou didn't know what happened to her just now. Now she was also in a state of confusion. She was just excited for a moment, but now she calmed down and could only forcefully explain with an embarrassed look on her face.

"It's not like Lao Qin winked at me just now. I thought he was asking me to save him."

Xie Xiaochun glared at Qin Hao again, and Qin Hao rolled his eyes: "Did I wink?"

"Yes, absolutely." Xu Hongdou winked at Qin Hao.

Well, who told you to look beautiful? Qin Hao can only acquiesce.

Xie Xiaochun was so angry that he jumped on his feet: "Okay, I really have you."

"Ahem, Xiaochun, this is all my fault. Don't be angry. I'll treat you to coffee. Nana, help me get Xiaochun a cup of the most expensive coffee." Xie Zhiyao hurriedly lowered his voice.

Mei pleads guilty.

Xie Xiaochun glanced at him angrily, turned to Nana and said: "Ignore him, you know I don't like drinking coffee, you are just pretending."

After saying that, Xie Xiaochun turned around and walked out. Xie Zhiyao shouted behind him: "Don't be angry. It's not enough for me to apologize. If it doesn't work, I'll give you a salary increase."

"You're here, you always try to make a big deal. Let's talk about it when we pay off the bank debt." Xie Xiaochun left without looking back.

Xie Zhiyao awkwardly showed his hands to Qin Hao and Xu Hongdou: "Yeah, I'm really angry."

"Deserved it."

Qin Hao and Xu Hongdou said in unison.

Xie Zhiyao laughed and scolded: "No, are you all going to talk to the outside world now?"

Xu Hongdou's cheeks were slightly hot, but her mouth was unforgiving: "If someone arranges a blind date for you, if you don't like it, you should express your refusal as soon as possible and be coy and submissive. Do you still have the decency to be a man?"

"That's right, do you look like a man?" Qin Hao would not let go of this opportunity to beat up the drowned dog, who actually pushed him out to jack up the tank.

As a result, before she finished speaking, Xu Hongdou pointed the finger at Qin Hao again: "And you, why are you joining in the fun of someone else's blind date? You are also chatting so enthusiastically with that girl, it's irresponsible!"

After Xu Hongdou finished speaking, he didn't give the two of them a chance to argue. He stood up and walked away, leaving Qin Hao and Xie Zhiyao staring at each other.

"Irresponsible!" Xie Zhiyao imitated Xu Hongdou's tone and complained.

Qin Hao said angrily: "Hey, that's too much. I'm in this innocent disaster thanks to you, kid. Don't forget, you still owe me a favor."

Xie Zhiyao instantly withered.

After coming out of the small tavern, Qin Hao was not in a hurry to go back to the small courtyard, and started wandering around the village. Over time, he became more or less familiar with the villagers. From time to time, villagers greeted Qin Hao, and Qin Hao responded with a smile.

After walking, they arrived at Erhai Lake, and found that Xu Hongdou was taking pictures everywhere. Qin Hao didn't bother her, but just looked at her quietly.

Under the sun, on the shore of Erhai Lake, with green grass and shaded trees, Xu Hongdou was wearing a brown and white plaid shirt on the upper body and a pair of light-colored casual pants on the lower body. It was a very ordinary combination, and her figure was wrapped up, not too much.

It appears, but with that delicate oval face and long black hair floating around, faintly glowing with brown-red light under the sunlight, it is like a beautiful oil painting, which makes people dizzy.

Qin Hao subconsciously took out his mobile phone and froze this moment.

However, he was caught red-handed by Xu Hongdou. Qin Hao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed for a moment. After all, this was considered a candid photo.

As a result, Xu Hongdou raised the digital camera with her backhand: "Don't move."

"Kacha" also gave Qin Hao one.

Qin Hao was happy: "As for that, I won't suffer any loss."

"Okay, why should I suffer a loss?" Xu Hongdou asked.

Qin Hao spread his hands with an expression like: You are right, but I am speechless.

"I was just in the tavern..."

Qin Hao and Xu Hongdou walked side by side for a while and suddenly asked.

"If I say, I just thought it was fun on a whim, is that okay?" Xu Hongdou replied casually.

"Okay, if you don't like it, forget it." Qin Hao shook his head.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment, and Xu Hongdou asked curiously: "Are you from Beijing too?"

"Oh? How do you know? I have a Beijing accent?" Qin Hao asked.

Xu Hongdou was basically certain that the person in front of him was the person Chen Nanxing said he wanted to confess to. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence and all the conditions were met.

Seeing Xu Hongdou didn't answer, Qin Hao felt helpless: "You don't want to say it?"

Xu Hongdou had an expression like: You know, but you still ask.

"How long have you been in Yunmiao Village?"

The two were silent for a while, then Xu Hongdou suddenly asked.

"It's been about a month or two," Qin Hao replied casually.

Xu Hongdou did the math and couldn't help but feel a little sad. At that time, Chen Nanxing had been diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer.

Xu Hongdou's mind recalled the situation when Chen Nanxing had just been hospitalized. She once persuaded Chen Nanxing to confess her love to Qin Hao, but Chen Nanxing refused. She said she didn't want to leave a knot in others' hearts before she died.

Thinking about it now, even if Chen Nanxing wanted to confess his love at that time, Qin Hao had already left the capital.

Xu Hongdou couldn't help but feel a sore nose when he thought of this. He could only raise his head desperately to prevent tears from flowing down.

Qin Hao noticed something strange about Xu Hongdou and took out a pack of tissues from his pocket and handed it to her.

"Thank you, no need." Xu Hongdou wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her slender fingers, and her steps became much faster unknowingly.

As they walked, the two came to Xie Zhiyao's horse farm. In the fence, two mares and their foals were slowly grazing, not alerted by the arrival of the two uninvited guests.

As soon as Qin Hao approached the fence, a white horse came over with elegant steps. Its long horse face stretched out of the fence and flattered Qin Hao, looking like a coquettish person.

Xu Hongdou looked at this scene in surprise, looking like he wanted to get closer but didn't dare.

Upon seeing this, Qin Hao patted the "little cutie" on the horse's face and motioned for Xu Hongdou to come over.

Xu Hongdou was still a little worried, but she still had the courage to get closer. As a result, the "little cutie" stretched out the horse's face, shocking Xu Hongdou.

Under Qin Hao's scolding, the "little cutie" snorted aggrievedly, and then stood still obediently, looking like she was at the mercy of others.

"How did you do that?" Xu Hongdou reached out and touched the face of the "little cutie" with a look of disbelief on his face.

Qin Hao couldn't explain it, so he casually said: "This is a mare."

Xu Hongdou didn't react at first. She was stunned for two seconds and then spat at Qin Hao: "That's nonsense."

"Have you ever ridden a horse?" Qin Hao asked, holding on to the fence.

Xu Hongdou looked at the cute "little cutie" and was indeed a little excited to try it, but also a little scared.

As a result, Qin Hao directly supported the fence with both hands, climbed over, and then stretched out a hand towards Xu Hongdou.

Xu Hongdou hesitated and struggled for a while, but still could not resist the temptation of riding a horse. She handed her hand to Qin Hao, then she leaned on the fence with one hand and one foot.

"Okay, I did a lot of sneaking around when I was a kid," Qin Hao said jokingly to Xu Hongdou, who had just climbed over the fence.

Xu Hongdou rolled her eyes at him: "I should say this to you, you are so familiar with the road."

Well, this little girl really doesn't suffer at all.

"Wait a minute, I'll go get the saddle."

Everyone at the racecourse also knew Qin Hao, and they did not blame them for climbing over the fence, but wondered why they had to climb the wall when there was a good door.

Xu Hongdou just watched helplessly as an uncle opened the door and slowly led a horse away.

When Qin Hao took out the saddle and tied it on the "little cutie", Xu Hongdou couldn't help but raise his own questions.

"Don't you think this is exciting?"

"childish!"

Dali horses are generally short, and "Little Cutie" is no exception. Xu Hongdou easily stepped on the stirrup with one foot, but didn't know what to do next.

Qin Hao stood next to her: "Push this foot hard and try to stand up with one foot in the stirrup."

Xu Hongdou did as he was told, and then felt that his whole body could not maintain balance in mid-air. He was about to fall down, but his dangling foot was held by Qin Hao.

"Okay, just step over now."

Xu Hongdou took a breath and carefully moved her foot to the other side. After Qin Hao's hand was released, Xu Hongdou suddenly found that she was sitting on the horse.

The "little cutie" felt that someone was sitting on her, but what puzzled her was why the person sat on him but stopped moving, and gave no instructions as to which way he was going, so he called impatiently.

It snorted and began to dig at the ground with its four hooves.

Qin Hao patted the "little cutie" on the head, and now it became obedient, lowering its head and eating grass obediently.

Xu Hongdou sat on the horse, all the muscles in his body were tense, as if he were a hostage tied with explosives in a police movie.

"Why doesn't it go?"

Qin Hao was happy: "It's waiting for your instructions."
