Courtyard House: Drunk and barging into the Xu family's house, I woke up numb.

"Oh my dear father, can you please not be so rude?"

He Daqing snorted.

"Can't you stand listening to this?"

"I haven't even said the harshest things yet!"

"Get home right now! Aren't you ashamed enough?"

He Yuzhu's face lit up with joy; he knew that his old man had been fooled by an old man.

"Dad, I'll go back, but do you agree to my relationship with Qin Huairu?"

“If you don’t agree, then I’ll just stay here. It’s not so shameful to be a live-in son-in-law.”

He Daqing turned his face away and said coldly.

"If you have something to say, get home and explain it later!"

After saying that, He Daqing left. He Yuzhu was slightly stunned, then happily took his coat and went back home.

Before leaving, he told Qin Huairu, who was standing at the door.

"Alright, now you can just wait to be the bride!"

As Qin Huairu watched He Yuzhu leave, thinking about what had happened earlier, she felt that she had lost her composure and seemed to be deliberately shifting the blame.

The following morning, Cao Xu returned home from his night shift and, as soon as he entered the front yard, he heard the two brothers, Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangtian, chatting idly.

"You know, this Sha Zhu is really something, he actually managed to win over Qin Huairu."

"Who says otherwise? I originally thought that with Grandma Banggeng's commotion, Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu would be paraded through the streets, but now it's all good, the two of them are getting married."

Cao Xu walked over and asked.

"Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu are getting married?"

Yan Jiecheng greeted Cao Xu as he pushed the cart into the yard.

"Hey, Section Chief Cao, why are you only getting back now? You weren't working the night shift again, were you?"

Cao Xu said.

"This is your last night shift, and then it's time for the day shift. Tell me, what's going on?"

Liu Guangtian said.

"Shazhu and Qin Huairu got their marriage certificate and will hold their wedding banquet tomorrow. I just told my dad this morning."

"The banquet wasn't big. He didn't invite any outsiders, just the elders and close relatives in the courtyard. They set up two tables at home to witness the event."

Yan Jiecheng said in a low voice.

"Section Chief Cao, if your security department had arrested them that day, he probably wouldn't have been able to get married."

Cao Xu said.

"They got their marriage certificate first, then got married. These two really thought things through."

Liu Guangtian said.

"Sigh, isn't that silly Zhu just afraid that Grandpa He would object? He pulled this 'execute first, ask questions later' tactic."

"They even dragged an old man out to act as a persuader, and managed to get Grandpa He to agree to the marriage."

Upon hearing this, Cao Xu understood what had happened; He Yuzhu was really willing to go out.

He's willing to bow down to Yi Zhonghai in order to marry Qin Huairu; it seems he's preparing to repeat his old mistakes.

Yan Jiefang came out of the house and saw Cao Xu pushing the cart away, so he immediately ran over.

"Brother Cao, did you ask about that matter for me?"

Cao Xu looked at Yan Jiefang, the future chef, and said.

"It's only the New Year, why are you in such a hurry? Let's talk about it after you graduate."

Yan Jiefang wanted to ask more questions, but Yan Jiecheng, who was standing next to him, stopped him and greeted him with a smile.

"Section Chief Cao must be exhausted after a long night. You should go back and rest first. There's no rush to get Liberation."

Cao Xu grunted and left, leaving Yan Jiefang looking at his older brother with a puzzled expression.

"Brother, why are you stopping me? I haven't asked clearly yet."

Yan Jiecheng raised his hand and slapped Yan Jiefang on the back of the head.

"Are you out of your mind? Can you even continue asking this question?"

Yan Jiefang asked in confusion.

　(bieg) "Of course I have to ask. There are so many high school graduates who can't get jobs these days. If I just wait around after graduating from junior high, how long will it take?"

Liu Guangtian stepped forward and patted Yan Jiefang on the shoulder.

"Jiefang, Cao Xu didn't directly say he didn't want you, so there's still hope. Just focus on your studies."

"If all else fails, you can have Uncle San take a bottle of good wine to my dad and ask him to work as a temporary worker in my dad's workshop."

Yan Jiefang pursed his lips.

"I don't want to go down to the workshop to carry a sledgehammer, my goal is to go to the security department and get a gun!"

Yan Jiecheng waved to his mentally challenged younger brother.

"Okay, take the gun. Go back and wait to get it from the security department."

After seeing Yan Jiefang off, Liu Guangtian shook his head.

"Your brother is really stubborn. Does he think he can just walk into the security office like anyone else?"

"Your dad probably got jealous because he saw Cao Xu go from a high school graduate to a leader in a steel rolling mill in just two months."

"They treat this security department as a place for quick promotions, and want your second son to get in and take a shortcut."

"How could he know that Cao Xu was an anomaly, someone who couldn't be viewed by ordinary people?"

Yan Jie attained enlightenment.

"Who says otherwise? I think this person only thinks about taking advantage and doesn't consider the actual situation."

"Our second son can't even do well in school, how can we expect him to become an official?"

"Even if he gets into the security department, does he have the same abilities as Cao Xu?"

Liu Guangtian agreed.

"That's right, Cao Xu is not only capable, but also lucky."

“I heard from my dad that the railway department sent Cao Xu a letter of commendation yesterday, saying that he bravely apprehended an armed robber on the train.”

Yan Jie attained enlightenment.

"That's right. Our workshop director said it was broadcast over the loudspeaker throughout the workshop yesterday."

“I overheard someone in the restroom yesterday saying that the robber was very likely a murderer.”

Liu Guangtian clicked his tongue in amazement.

"No way, who told you that?"

Yan Jie attained enlightenment.

"We don't know whether the people in Group 1 of the Security Department are telling the truth or not."

"However, Cao Xu's treatment was improved yesterday afternoon."

"Although he was promoted to head of the security department, his salary was originally set at that of a deputy head because his working hours were too short."

"But yesterday Cao Xu's rank was directly adjusted from deputy section chief to section chief. Do you think there's nothing going on here?"

Liu Guangtian nodded.

“You’re right. Even if this person isn’t a murderer, he must be some kind of wanted criminal.”

"Otherwise, it would be impossible to give such a big reward just for catching a petty thief."

"This Cao Xu is really fearless. He dared to arrest someone with a gun. He's ruthless. No wonder he can hold his own in the security department!"

At this point, Liu Guangtian suddenly laughed.

"Jiecheng, do you think He Yushui must be regretting this to death right now?"

"The man who treated her like a treasure dumped her, and the man she treated like a treasure kicked her out. Isn't that ironic?"

Yan Jiecheng made a shushing gesture.

"Don't mention this. He Yushui had a falling out with Shazhu over the annulment of the engagement and is now shouting that she wants to sever all ties with him as a sibling."

"Let's not go looking for trouble. After working the night shift all day, let's go home and get some sleep."
