Courtyard House: He Daqing Forces Qin Huairu into Marrying at the Beginning

"I don't know where that bitch ran off to."

I don't know anything, you should leave now.

Liu Wu felt an intense hatred for Bai Zhan whenever he was mentioned.

If it weren't for that bitch's betrayal, he wouldn't have lost so completely.

Chapter 34 Arrest

"I'm really in a hurry to find an apprentice. What are your requirements? We can talk about it."

Yi Zhonghai thought Liu Wu was just being argumentative, so he took out 10,000 yuan from his pocket and carefully handed it over.

"This little bit of money is for Brother Liu Wu to have a cup of tea."

Could you please help me?

"I don't know anything, get out of here!"

Liu Wu raised his hand and slapped the bills out of Yi Zhonghai's hand, speaking coldly.

If it weren't for the difficulty in disposing of the corpse, Liu Wu would have liked to get rid of this annoying fly.

After saying that, Liu Wu slammed the door shut.

"Hey, wait a minute..."

Yi Zhonghai tried to step forward to stop them, but he was too late and was ultimately blocked outside by the cold door.

"Hi……"

Yi Zhonghai sighed deeply, completely unaware that he had just walked through the gates of hell.

Having received no help, Yi Zhonghai could only leave in anger.

As he reached the street corner, a dark gun barrel suddenly appeared from the side and was pressed directly against Yi Zhonghai's forehead.

Lost in thought, Yi Zhonghai was only brought back to reality when he touched the gun barrel; the cold, hard feel of it brought him back to his senses.

Immediately afterward, sensing the danger, his body began to tremble involuntarily, and his terrified eyes bulged out like light bulbs.

Before Yi Zhonghai could make a sound, two soldiers in military uniforms rushed out of the shadows, covered his mouth, and dragged him to the foot of the wall.

"Don't move."

"Take him to the back."

Before he could even figure out what was going on, Yi Zhonghai was taken away.

Overwhelmed by fear, Yi Zhonghai lost control of his body during the escort and wet his pants.

He really couldn't understand how he could run into such a deadly thing when he was just looking for someone.

"Captain, we can't wait any longer, let's get moving."

If this drags on any longer, they'll escape.

"Okay, proceed with the arrest immediately."

Under the eaves of a house at the street corner, a squad of heavily armed soldiers began to stealthily approach Liu Wu's house.

Back in his room, Liu Wu looked at the several burly men with fierce eyes and felt a chill run down his spine.

He knew very well that none of these people were easy to get along with.

If things go wrong, Liu Wu could lose his life.

If he hadn't been truly desperate, Liu Wu would never have wanted to associate with them.

"Liu Wu, what's the situation outside?"

The scarred man at the head of the group reached for his waist with one hand and asked in a deep voice.

"They came to see a relative of mine; it's nothing serious."

Boss Cao, don't worry.

I would never betray you.

Liu Wu quickly explained in a soft voice.

"I doubt you have the guts."

Time is of the essence; delay could lead to unforeseen circumstances. Let's take action tonight.

Liu Wu, you go with the second brother and the others to set fire to the steel mill and attract the attention of the city's guards.

I led the rest of the men to sabotage the steel mill.

After finishing their business, they dispersed and broke through the encirclement, gathering together in the east of the city.

We left together by boat.

After we finish this job, we…

Before Boss Cao could finish speaking, there was a sound of a door being broken down outside.

"No one in the house is allowed to move!"

"Grab your weapons and fight them!"

Seeing that his plan had been exposed, Boss Cao pulled out the pistol from his waist, ready to fight to the death.

Immediately afterwards, a burst of intense gunfire rang out in the courtyard.

……

"Great Qing, Great Qing, you must help us!"

My husband, Lao Yi, is innocent; he couldn't possibly have done anything wrong!

Yao Min ran tearfully to He Daqing's door for help.

Yi Zhonghai did not return home all night, and it wasn't until this morning that Yao Min learned that her husband had been arrested by the military control commission.

I heard he's involved in a lawsuit with saboteurs.

The case caused a huge uproar, with no fewer than twenty people killed or injured.

Yao Min was just a woman with no connections in the city, so she had no choice but to shamelessly ask her neighbor for help.

"Yao Min, I don't know the specifics of Lao Yi's matter."

I'm just a cook at a steel mill; I can't get in touch with the military control commission and can't help them much.

But don't worry too much. As long as Lao Yi hasn't done anything wrong, the higher-ups will never wrong an innocent person.

He Daqing had to admire Yi Zhonghai's luck.

He bravely ventured alone into the lair of saboteurs and returned unharmed, only to be detained and interrogated as a suspect.

They are incredibly blessed.

In contrast, Liu Wu was much more unlucky.

He was about to commit the crime when he was riddled with bullets, his body barely recognizable.

What an unlucky guy.

"But, but Lao Yi hasn't come back yet."

You think he might have actually done something bad and is going to get shot?

If he dies, how am I supposed to live?

Yao Min collapsed into the courtyard and burst into tears.

If Yao Min, who has no children, loses her partner, she will be the next deaf old woman.

They might even be worse off than the deaf old woman.

After all, the deaf old lady is a recipient of the "Five Guarantees" (a government-provided social welfare program for the elderly), so she can still receive some care.

As a member of the prisoner's family, Yao Min could only suffer endless bullying.

She didn't want to live that kind of life.

Qin Huairu couldn't bear to watch any longer and went forward to help Yao Min up.

"Sister Yao, things have developed like this, crying won't help. We should hurry up and find someone else to think of a way to rescue Lao Yi."

Qin Huairu absolutely did not want her husband to get involved in such a mess.

Saboteurs are utterly wicked, and anyone who gets involved with them will inevitably face imprisonment.

It's best to stay away.

"But none of our relatives have any power or influence, so they're all useless."

Who should I turn to?

Yi Zhonghai has no parents, no siblings, and the rest of his relatives are all distant relatives; they don't even visit each other during the Chinese New Year.

Yao Min really couldn't think of anyone to ask for help.

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!

He Daqing knew in his heart that Yi Zhonghai was almost certainly not related to saboteurs.

But one should be wary of the unexpected, and He Daqing didn't want to get involved without absolute certainty.

Furthermore, even if Yi Zhonghai was not involved in the case, he is not necessarily innocent.

Some things are not up to them to decide.

"Yao Min, Lao Yi is a worker at the steel rolling mill."

When something like this happens, the factory's senior management cannot remain uninvolved either.

Go to the factory and contact Lao Yi's apprentices and colleagues to see if there's any way to help.

Yao Min kept causing a ruckus in the courtyard, so He Daqing decided to find a way to get her away.

The relationship between husband and wife is relatively stable in this era.
