In the afternoon sun, in the corner of the café, sat a silent man. His eyes were deep, and his fingers unconsciously stirred the coffee in front of him, as if thinking about something. His name is Lin Hao, a seemingly ordinary man with unknown secrets.
Many years ago, Lin Hao met her by chance - Mengting. At that time, Mengting's eyes flashed with love for life, and her smile made Lin Hao's heart move. But Lin Hao already has his own family, his wife is gentle and virtuous, and his children are lively and cute. However, emotions are never something that the intellect can fully control.
The relationship between Lin Hao and Mengting began inadvertently. They will meet inadvertently and spend a short time together in the corners of the city. Every time he separated, Lin Hao could always see a trace of reluctance in Meng Ting's eyes, which made his heart full of guilt and struggle.
The relationship has been going on for years over time. Lin Hao often asks himself, is this true love? Why can't he let go of this relationship that shouldn't exist? Whenever this question came to mind, he would always fall into deep contemplation.
On this day, Lin Hao and Mengting met in the café again. Meng Ting looked a little haggard, but there was still a familiar glint in her eyes. She gently stirred the coffee in her cup and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?" ”
Lin Hao nodded, but couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know if we will have a result if we continue like this, I often wonder, is this true love?" ”
Meng Ting was silent for a moment and looked up at Lin Hao's eyes: "True love may not be something we can define, but I know that I have always had you in my heart for so many years." Maybe it's not love in the eyes of the world, but it does exist, and it's profound. ”
Lin Hao was silent for a long time after hearing this, and finally spoke: "Yes, I am the same." But such feelings are destined to fail to see the light, and we cannot give each other a complete future. ”
Meng Ting smiled lightly: "Maybe, but at least we once had, didn't we?" Sometimes, people who truly love each other may not be able to be together, but that relationship is real. ”
The conversation between the two slowly ended in the corner of the café. The sunlight outside the window shines through the glass window on the table, leaving a dappled light and shadow. The story of Lin Hao and Meng Ting, just like this light and shadow, is not perfect, but it is real and profound.
Many years later, when Lin Hao recalled this past again, his heart was still full of emotion. That extramarital relationship, although it could not give him a happy ending, made him deeply appreciate the complexity of human nature and the sincerity of feelings.
In this world, feelings are never simply black and white. Sometimes, true love may not necessarily lead to marriage, but exists somewhere in the bottom of the heart and becomes an indispensable part of life. The story of Lin Hao and Meng Ting may be such a complex kind of true love.
And for Lin Hao, he finally understood that whether this relationship is true love or not, it has become a thing of the past. What he needs to cherish is his current life and the people around him. He has learned to let go of his past entanglements and cherish every moment with his family even more.
As for Mengting, she also gradually found her own direction in life in the baptism of time. She knew that although the time spent with Lin Hao was beautiful, it was just an episode in her life after all. She has learned to be open to the past and brave to pursue her future.
In this bustling world, feelings are always full of helplessness and regret. But it is these experiences that make us more mature and stronger. Although the story of Lin Hao and Mengting is tortuous, it also allows us to see the truth and complexity of human nature. In this journey of life full of unknowns, we are all constantly learning, growing, and finally finding our own happiness.
