Siheyuan: Sap is the last word

Chapter 820 On the Garden Bench

He Yudong and Lou Xiao'e sat on a bench in the garden, surrounded by the quiet night, with the occasional chirping of crickets. The two had just finished a small garden pruning, and the breeze blew by, bringing bursts of coolness.

"I have always felt that a garden is the place that best reflects a person's inner world," Lou Xiao'e said with emotion. "Through these plants, I can see your love and meticulousness for life. I really admire your dedication to the garden."

He Yudong smiled softly: "Thank you for the compliment. In fact, the garden is not only a hobby for me, it is also a place for me to relax and think. I am also very happy to share this with you."

Lou Xiao'e glanced at He Yudong with a bit of tenderness in her eyes: "I really like this peaceful feeling. Here, I feel like I can temporarily forget some troubles and focus on the things in front of me."

He Yudong felt warm in his heart: "I understand this feeling. There are inevitably various pressures and challenges in life, and the garden has become a way for me to relieve stress. If you like, we can stay here together and enjoy the tranquility."

"That's great." Lou Xiao'e smiled and nodded, "I'd like to do that, too." The relationship between the two gradually became closer. They began to share each other's life experiences and feelings, and discussed various topics, from work to hobbies, and gradually established a deep friendship. He Yudong found that he enjoyed spending more and more time with Lou Xiao'e, and Lou Xiao'e also felt a lot of warmth and support in He Yudong's company.

During a casual chat, Lou Xiao'e suddenly brought up some of her personal experiences and feelings. She talked about the setbacks and challenges she had experienced and how these experiences shaped her current personality and values.

“I have faced many difficulties before,” Lou said, “but these difficulties taught me how to face the challenges in life. I think these experiences made me stronger and more mature.”

He Yudong listened carefully and felt a sense of admiration in his heart: "Your experience is really inspiring. Everyone has their own difficulties in life, and you are able to draw strength from them, which makes me admire you even more."

The smile on Lou Xiao'e's face softened, and a touch of emotion flashed in her eyes: "Thank you, Yuzhu. I feel very comfortable and relaxed with you. You always make me see the beauty in life."

He Yudong gently held Lou Xiaoe's hand, with a deep feeling in his heart: "I am also very grateful to have a friend like you. The time spent with you always makes people feel comfortable."

During this time, the relationship between the two gradually warmed up, and the tacit understanding and care between them made them feel closer. He Yudong found that he attached more and more importance to his interaction with Lou Xiaoe, and Lou Xiaoe also found more support and warmth in He Yudong's company.

As time went by, people in the courtyard also noticed this special relationship. When they saw the interaction between He Yudong and Lou Xiao'e, they all had a smile on their faces, as if silently blessing this pair of tacit friends.

Whenever night falls, He Yudong and Lou Xiaoe always walk in the garden and chat about the little things in life. In these quiet times, their feelings for each other become deeper. No matter what the future holds, He Yudong and Lou Xiaoe are trying to cherish this good time and are full of expectations and hope for the future.

Yu Zhu feels emotionally confused, and his feelings for Lou Xiao'e conflict with his family responsibilities, and he begins to reflect on his future.

As his relationship with Lou Xiao'e deepened, He Yudong gradually began to experience some complex emotions. He found that his feelings for Lou Xiao'e were growing stronger, but at the same time, the conflict between family responsibilities and personal feelings began to emerge in his heart. Whenever he spent time with Lou Xiao'e, he felt inner peace and satisfaction; however, when he thought of the various responsibilities in his family, he had to face the pressure and obligations of reality. This conflict of emotions made him feel confused and lost. He Yudong sat in his study at home, with the light shining softly on his desk. His desk was filled with various books and notes, but he was not in the mood to read or organize these materials at the moment. His thoughts were all occupied by his inner troubles, thinking about his future direction and choices.

He leaned back in his chair, gently pinching his chin with his fingers, his eyes a little dazed. The family responsibilities and feelings for Lou Xiao'e were like two pulling forces, making him feel caught in a dilemma. He knew that his feelings for Lou Xiao'e were sincere, but at the same time he also knew that every member of the family needed his care and support. This sense of responsibility made him feel that he could never completely let go.

Just as he was lost in thought, the door of the study was gently pushed open, and Qin Huairu walked in. She saw that He Yudong looked a little serious, "Yuzhu, what's wrong with you? You look a little worried."

He Yudong looked up at Qin Huairu and forced a smile: "Nothing, just some things need to be sorted out."

Qin Huairu walked to his desk, sat down and looked at him: "Are you having any troubles? Tell me, maybe I can give you some advice."

He Yudong took a deep breath and finally decided to speak out his inner troubles: "Actually, I've been confused about some things recently. My relationship with Lou Xiao'e has become closer and closer, and I find that I really like her. However, I have to face the responsibilities of my family. These responsibilities make me feel very stressed, and I'm not sure if I can balance these two aspects."

Qin Huairu heard this, and a hint of understanding and concern flashed in her eyes: "I understand how you feel. It is indeed difficult to deal with the conflict between feelings and family responsibilities. Your feelings for Lou Xiaoe are sincere, but your responsibilities in the family cannot be ignored. You can try to find a balance and see what you really want."

He Yudong smiled bitterly: "I know, but it's hard to strike a balance. Whenever I want to be with Lou Xiao'e, my sense of responsibility for my family makes me feel uneasy. I'm worried that if I invest too much in my relationship, my family will be affected. And if I focus too much on my family, I will miss the opportunity to be with Lou Xiao'e."

Qin Huairu pondered for a while, and gently patted He Yudong on the shoulder: "You need to give yourself some time and space to sort out your thoughts. Perhaps, you can try to communicate with Lou Xiaoe frankly about your feelings and troubles. She may understand your situation and give you some support and advice. I felt a little relieved: "Thank you, Qin Huairu. Your suggestion makes sense. I will consider the method you mentioned, maybe this can help me understand my heart more clearly. "

"Don't worry," Qin Huairu said gently, "Everyone will encounter challenges in life, and finding the right solution takes time and thought. As long as you face it with all your heart, you will find the answer. He Yudong began to think more seriously about his inner needs and future direction. He decided to have an in-depth conversation with Lou Xiao'e to express his confusion and feelings to her. Although it was not an easy task, he knew that honesty and communication were the key to solving problems. He Yudong and Lou Xiao'e took a walk in the garden of the quadrangle. The night was gentle, and the garden was filled with a faint fragrance of flowers. The two walked and talked, and the atmosphere was relaxed and natural. However, He Yudong knew that he needed to have a serious talk about his confusion.

"Xiao'e, there is something I want to talk to you about." He Yudong said, "I have been feeling a little lost lately and unsure about the direction of my future. My feelings for you are sincere, but I also have family responsibilities to fulfill. I am not sure how to balance these two aspects."

When Lou Xiao'e heard this, she showed a trace of concern in her eyes: "Yuzhu, I understand your troubles. Family responsibilities are indeed important, and relationships also need to be managed with care. You can tell me more details, and I will try my best to understand and support you."

He Yudong sighed. “I’m worried that if I invest too much in our relationship, my family might suffer. Conversely, if I focus too much on my family, I might miss the opportunity to be with you. I don’t know how to find a balance.”

Lou Xiao'e held He Yudong's hand with a firm look in her eyes: "Yuzhu, I am willing to understand your predicament. We can discuss it together and see how to find a suitable solution. I hope you can find a way to make yourself comfortable while also taking care of your family and your relationship."

He Yudong felt a little warm in his heart. He looked at Lou Xiaoe and said gratefully, "Thank you for your understanding and support. Your words warm my heart. I will seriously consider our future and try to find a balance."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and nodded: "No matter what, we can face it together. As long as we are honest with each other and support each other, we will definitely find a solution."

After this conversation, He Yudong felt that his confusion was relieved. He began to think more seriously about his future and continued to communicate with Lou Xiaoe. The two gradually found a better way to get along with each other, while also trying to balance the needs of family and relationship.

Although the road ahead is still full of challenges, the relationship between He Yudong and Lou Xiaoe has become more firm and mature. They know that as long as they understand and support each other, they can go through the ups and downs of life together and welcome a better tomorrow together.

: As the relationship with Lou Xiaoe continued to deepen, however, one night, he leaned back in his chair, just as he was lost in thought, "Yuzhu, what's wrong with you?" He Yudong looked up at Qin Huairu, "Nothing," Qin Huairu walked to his table," He Yudong took a deep breath, "Actually, but," Qin Huairu heard this," He Yudong smiled bitterly: "I know," Qin Huairu pondered for a while, maybe," He Yudong nodded, "Thank you, Qin Huairu. "
