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

It seems I don't need to take anything anymore. The medicine really can correct the problem in one go, which is naturally the best. Then I won't need to sell clothes here anymore.

Although we don't have the man's contact information, Longding Group is the best way to contact him!

Recalling everything the two of them had just done, she found herself unable to forget it; she had never seen a man last so long!

About a week later, Li Jianjun and his women packed their things and prepared to go back home, since there were still several children at home.

Unexpectedly, just as he arrived at the boat boarding area, he saw a familiar figure running towards him from afar, waving as he ran…

Why did you leave? Aren't you coming back?

Looking at the man in front of her, Ziwei felt extremely reluctant to part with him, and tears streamed down her face like pearls from a broken string.

Although I only wanted to make a deal with him at first, I never expected that after all this time, I would be unable to let him go!

She wished she could do nothing right now and stay by the man's side all the time, even if it meant giving up her favorite career!

"I'm going back now. We'll meet again sometime!"

As Li Jianjun spoke, he gently wiped away the woman's tears.

"I don't want to. I want to be with you. I want to be with you, even if it means giving up everything I have now..."

Before the woman could finish speaking, Li Jianjun covered her mouth.

Li Jianjun never expected that this woman had developed genuine feelings for him. He had chosen her simply because he knew she would become a huge star!

It can bring them huge profits and is very helpful for them to enter the entertainment industry. Otherwise, why would they invest so much money in her?

"If you want to repay me, then work hard to carry forward my legacy, and then you can come to me anytime you have the chance!"

After saying this, Li Jianjun turned and left, not wanting to have any further involvement with this person, otherwise the plan might fail.

If the film can't be made, all the money invested will be wasted!

She waved her hand forcefully, just to watch the man leave!

After returning home, I worked even harder, determined to become a better person so that I could go to the mainland and meet her again!

When Li Jianjun and his group returned home, they heard a series of mournful cries, which were very disheartening.

"Grandma, how could you be gone! I didn't even get to give you a grandson or anything..."

"Grandfather, your passing was so sudden. We all miss you so much..."

Upon entering the gate and seeing the people bustling around in the yard, Li Jianjun inquired and learned that the deaf old lady had passed away!

"How could the old lady suddenly be gone? She was perfectly healthy before I passed away?"

Li Jianjun felt that something was strange about this matter, as he clearly went to see it before he left.

Although his relationship with the old lady wasn't very good, it wasn't that strained either, and he had been secretly helping her all these years.

Li Jianjun and his wife went over to say hello.

He looked at Sha Zhu kneeling there without saying a word. Now that the old lady had no children, who would want to help her? After he passed away, he couldn't concern himself with the matter of filial piety.

Upon seeing Li Jianjun return, Yi Zhonghai involuntarily took a step back, looking extremely nervous.

He was terrified. He knew best how the old lady had died. What if Li Jianjun asked him about it?

"The old lady is gone, what's the use of crying now? Just go bury her this afternoon!"

Looking at the group of people in front of him, Yi Zhonghai, as the eldest, made a suggestion.

No one objected to this, but everyone knew that her crying was just an act!

Otherwise, wouldn't their supposedly civilized courtyard house look fake?

Moreover, the old lady has some private inheritance, which would make it easier for them to divide those things equally.

Li Jianjun looked at Yi Zhonghai in front of him and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

It's worth noting that the relationship between this person and the old lady was quite delicate. Could it be that the two had a conflict of interest, so Yi Zhonghai killed her to silence her?

“I don’t think this is appropriate. Although the old lady has no children, there are so many of us in this courtyard. We should at least keep vigil for her for three days!”

After Li Jianjun said this, everyone else fell silent, not daring to utter a single word.

"I agree!"

One by one, they expressed their opinions, all siding with Li Jianjun.

Chapter 364 The murderer behind the scenes

At this moment, the situation inside the courtyard house is no longer the same as before.

Yi Zhonghai never expected that all the people in the courtyard would side with Li Jianjun. They really didn't take him seriously at all!

These bastards have only been in jail for a few years, yet they don't care about any past relationships at all; not a single one of them is sentimental!

"You...you heartless bastards, have you forgotten how I helped you before!"

Yi Zhonghai pointed at his former neighbors and began to curse.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai's agitated state, Li Jianjun felt even more puzzled. It seemed there was something going on, and Yi Zhonghai shouldn't be acting like this.

The old lady wasn't particularly close to me, but if some people had ulterior motives and wanted to do something wrong, I wouldn't just stand by and do nothing!

"It's only three days. Why are we all so worried about the old lady? Can't we even spare this little bit of time?"

"Or is it that some people have done something wrong and are afraid that the old lady's spirit will linger in this courtyard and come looking for her?"

As Li Jianjun spoke, he scanned the crowd, finally fixing his gaze on the old man, Yi Zhonghai.

As expected, Yi Zhonghai's brows furrowed instantly upon hearing this, and he shrank back, looking somewhat nervous.

Could it be that Li Jianjun discovered something? I did it while he wasn't home!

"The old lady is so old, let her stay in the yard for a few days if she wants, since she won't be coming back later anyway."

"Yes, the old lady is the matriarch of our courtyard. She's the oldest doctor there, and she has no children. If she dies, we younger generations will be able to benefit from her remaining estate."

At this time, some people in the courtyard openly began to covet the old lady's property, wanting to get a share of it openly and secretly!

After all, everyone knows that this old lady is a recipient of the Five Guarantees (a government welfare program for the elderly, disabled, and orphans). She is old and doesn't eat or drink much, so she must be saving the money she receives every month!

If they could get a share, it would be enough to feed the family for a month. They can't just stay in mourning for this old lady for nothing!

Since they're not related by blood or marriage, they might as well just sit back and watch the show if there's no benefit for them!

Li Jianjun glanced at the person who spoke. This guy was quite bold, daring to say such things in front of everyone. But he was still better than some people who tried to be clever behind people's backs!

During the three-day mourning period, Yi Zhonghai couldn't eat or sleep well, and he didn't even dare to close his eyes. Every time he closed his eyes, he would see the scene of the deaf old lady who had been angered by him and collapsed to the ground. She died with her eyes wide open, staring at him!

I absolutely cannot let anyone know about this, otherwise I'll probably have to go back to working on the sewing machine!

The deaf old lady was buried in the cemetery. Li Jianjun paid for the cemetery, and the others were very envious. It cost nearly a thousand yuan for a cemetery plot. It's just a dead person. What difference does it make where she is buried?

"The funeral arrangements for the old lady are finally over these past few days. Everyone has worked hard. I need to sort out the old lady's house and property. Let's see how we should arrange them."

As soon as Li Jianjun said this, everyone's eyes lit up, eager to know the result, even if it was just a few yuan.

One by one, they followed Li Jianjun inside and started rummaging through things, but they found only some tattered clothes and nothing else!

"I remember the old lady clearly left something important here! Jingjing, you two come and look for it, since you've been staying in the old lady's yard!"

Li Jianjun looked at the two sisters, Jingjing and Jingjing, in front of him and spoke.

The two sisters nodded and started searching, turning the old lady's house upside down, but they couldn't find anything of value!

"My God, what's going on? The old lady always carries her property certificate with her at all times; she can't possibly leave this house!"

"The old lady died so suddenly, and none of us were there. Could something have happened at the time?"

"That's right! The old lady was fine just a couple of days ago, and then suddenly she was gone. Could it be that her house was burgled, so they just killed her to cover it up?"

At this point, the neighbors gathered inside the house couldn't help but start speculating.

Who discovered the old lady was dead?

Li Jianjun asked, scrutinizing everyone in the crowd.

Upon hearing this, everyone naturally understood what it meant: the first person to discover the crime was the first person to appear at the scene!

This person is definitely closely related to the old lady's death!

"I think the first person to discover it was an old man!"

After thinking for a moment, Sister-in-law Ma spoke up.

"Yes, that's right, it really was! He called for our house!"

Upon seeing this, the three aunties immediately told the truth. After all, Yi Zhonghai had called their family first, and if they didn't explain things clearly now, they didn't want to be blamed for this.

Yi Zhonghai's face turned green, his expression was extremely ugly, and for a moment his face flushed, his heart pounded, and his body trembled.

"It's me...it's me...but I didn't see any property certificate or money..."

Yi Zhonghai denied it outright before he even arrived.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai's guilty look, Li Jianjun immediately suspected that he was the one who did it.

"Judging from the current situation, the old lady's death may not be of her own making. It might really be a murder. Why don't we all call the police? It seems that it is indeed necessary to let the police handle this!"

At this moment, Li Jianjun spoke up, looking at everyone.

The real intention was to scare Yi Zhonghai. After all, the old guy had been in prison for so long, he was definitely very resistant to this matter and would never let him call the police.

"Don't call the police! Let's investigate this ourselves. If we call the police and it gets out, our courtyard will become a laughing stock!"

Yi Zhonghai looked at everyone and managed to come up with a very far-fetched reason.

"Everyone probably understands what's going on. If whoever took the money obediently hands it over, this matter will be over. Let's discuss who should own the money and the house?"

Ran Qiurui spoke up at this moment, looking at everyone in the courtyard, which could be considered as giving Yi Zhonghai a way out.

Chapter 365 A Blind Date with a Stick

"By tomorrow morning, I hope the person who took it will obediently return it. Otherwise, if I go to the neighborhood office to investigate who took the property certificate, I'll find out immediately. Then I'll see if that person still has the face to stay in the yard!"

At this point, Li Jianjun issued an ultimatum, his serious tone making everyone present afraid to even breathe loudly.

Soon everyone in the room left and went home, leaving Yi Zhonghai alone at the door, lost in thought.
