Siheyuan: After becoming a traitor, first let the Huai Ru River overflow its banks.

People were talking about it, and Yi Zhonghai passed by, feeling a mix of emotions.

"This Li Jianjun is really difficult to deal with. Luckily, Zhu Zi didn't betray me, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to keep my job as an eighth-grade fitter."

Yi Zhonghai sighed and went back to his second workshop to tighten screws.

As soon as I entered the workshop, I spotted Qin Huairu.

"Master Yi, what's wrong with you? Your face is so pale?"

Yi Zhonghai wiped the cold sweat from his face.

"It's too hot outside, I can't stand it."

After saying that, he went straight to the workshop, leaving Qin Huairu completely bewildered.

"Is it too hot? It just rained, so I'm already wearing thick clothes."

Qin Huairu muttered to herself.

"Is Master Yi having health problems?"

Qin Huairu shook her head.

……

Meanwhile, Sha Zhu spent an unforgettable night at the police station.

The large iron gate was locked, and inside there was only a bed. The window was so small that even sunlight couldn't get in.

They only get one chance to go outside each day; the rest of the time they are locked up in this little metal box.

During mealtimes, a designated person delivers the food through a small window in the door.

In Sha Zhu's opinion, it was just like feeding livestock in the countryside, and it looked awkward no matter how you looked at it.

In just half a day, Sha Zhu felt uneasy all over. There were still more than twenty days to go. How was he going to get through them?

Yi Zhonghai said he would get himself out of trouble, but it's unclear whether he actually did it.

"No wonder people commit crimes. Nobody wants to be in jail; it's not a place for humans."

Having lost his freedom, he could only reflect on his actions alone in a confined space.

Sha Zhu was like Sun Wukong trapped under the Five Elements Mountain, longing for his life outside.

Just as he was lost in thought and feeling utterly bored, lunchtime arrived.

"He Yuzhu has eaten."

The small window on the door opened, and then a bowl was handed over—one of those ceramic bowls, the kind that isn't easily broken.

Inside was a stir-fried dish and some rice.

There was no oil in the stir-fried vegetables at all; they were almost like boiled vegetables. The rice was also very raw; it wasn't cooked at all.

Sha Zhu couldn't help but complain.

"Don't go, comrade. Is this food for humans? Look at this, the rice isn't even cooked properly. There's not a drop of oil in the vegetables."

Boiled vegetables not only have no nutritional value, but they also make people lose their appetite.

Especially since He Yuzhu is a chef, he is used to eating a lot of oily food.

Suddenly feeding him boiled vegetables always made him feel that they were bland and tasteless.

The man turned around and chuckled.

"He Yuzhu, you probably don't realize your place, do you? You're a prisoner here to serve your sentence, do you still think you're some big shot?"

"It's good enough that there's food at all. Do you want some or not? If you don't want some, I'll take the food away right now."

Sha Zhu's energy was then ignited.

"I won't eat it, I'd rather starve to death than eat it."

As Sha Zhu spoke, he knocked over the food.

Even dogs wouldn't eat this kind of thing.

The guard didn't tolerate Sha Zhu's behavior and simply took away his rice bowl.

"Fine, you've got guts, you've got guts. You won't eat for three days."

“I’ve taken your food away. Three days from now, I’ll see you kneeling on the ground begging for mercy.”

Sha Zhu's personality won't change anytime soon; he always likes to stand out wherever he goes.

They like to stand out even though they lack the ability.

Logically speaking, he was doing this to secure food for his fellow inmates.

But people don't seem to buy into his ideas.

After the guard left, the other prisoners started yelling at Sha Zhu.

Chapter 161 Sha Zhu Gets Punished for Acting Tough at the Police Station

"Damn it, who the hell are you? You're complaining about the food? Then don't come in, and don't eat here if you dare."

Sha Zhu's words did indeed arouse public outrage, saying that even dogs wouldn't eat that food.

Isn't this openly calling them dogs?

"You just wait, I'll kill you when I get out of prison."

The people living here are all ruthless.

"Remember this face. Once you get out of here, find a chance to kill him."

The prison boss began issuing orders.

The people in the other cells nodded one by one.

"Don't worry, boss. I'll be out in a minute and teach these little brats a lesson."

The guards seemed to be used to what was happening in the prison and did not come to maintain order.

They drank and ate as usual, chatting and laughing, completely oblivious to what was happening in prison.

...

In the courtyard.

Jia Zhangshi, who had been crying all night, had swollen eyes.

Her husband was not only sentenced to a month in prison, but also fined 300 yuan.

Even if Sha Zhu is powerful, he can't withstand Li Jianjun's extortion.

Jia Zhangshi was already unreasonable, and now she was even more unreasonable than before.

"Oh my God, Lao Jia, I've never done anything wrong in my life, why am I being punished like this?"

"Old Jia, you need to arrest Li Jianjun and all those bad guys right away."

Jia Zhangshi then began her soul-summoning ritual.

It was 11 a.m., and the workers who had finished get off work had not yet arrived home, so the families in the courtyard were starting to prepare lunch.

Her crying and fussing didn't attract many people, she was fined, and her husband went to jail.

On the contrary, Li Jianjun was completely unharmed.

This made the deaf old woman grit her teeth in hatred towards Li Jianjun.

Just then, a middle-aged woman, whom no one knew, walked into the courtyard. She looked around, as if searching for someone.

Madam Jia realized that this person was not from their courtyard.

"Whose wife are you? You look so unfamiliar."

The woman quickly explained.

“Sister-in-law, I’m not from this courtyard. I’m here today specifically to arrange a marriage for Li Jianjun.”

"Can you tell me, whose wife are you?"

The middle-aged woman answered cheerfully.

“I am a resident of No. 91, Nantongluo Lane. I came here today to help someone find a match.”

The straight-line distance between this courtyard house and the courtyard house where Li Jianjun lives is no more than 700 meters.

"Hey girl, whose boyfriend or girlfriend are you trying to set them up with?"

Jia Zhangshi was a very outgoing person.

Just a moment ago she was crying her eyes out, and suddenly she's acting like nothing happened. The way she switches between these expressions is so smooth and fast.

It's a shame he didn't win an Oscar.

"I'm here to introduce Li Jianjun to a girl. Her name is Yu Haitang."

The name flashed through Jia Zhangshi's mind, and she asked the middle-aged woman.

"Yu Haitang? Isn't she Yu Li's sister? Yu Li seems to be the daughter-in-law in our compound."

Aunt Zhang smiled ingratiatingly.

"Yes, yes, that's her. The second daughter of the Yu family, she's very pretty."

Jia Zhangshi muttered to herself.

“I think I saw this little girl come here a few days ago.”

A slender girl with delicate features immediately came to mind.

I heard that this girl is an announcer at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill. Her job is easy, and she can take care of her family.

I wonder who is lucky enough to marry such a beautiful woman.

"Whose son in our neighborhood are you arranging a marriage for?"

The middle-aged woman, Zhang Sao, didn't hide it from her either.

"It's for Li Jianjun in your department, the head of the security department at Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill."
