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

Liu Guangfu and Yan Jiekuang exchanged a glance, then waved their hands and immediately ran away, leaving behind the tied-up Banggeng and a group of onlookers.

Cao Xu walked into the alley and saw Bang Geng, who was surrounded by people, baring his teeth and with bloodshot eyes. He then glanced at Yan Jiekuang and Liu Guangfu, who were fleeing. He immediately understood what had happened.

Xu Damao is truly the same as ever; whether in the drama or now, his methods haven't changed.

Sure enough, Xu Damao, who was not far from the crowd, saw Cao Xu and Yang Zitao appear and prepared to make a run for it.

"Xu Damao, you stop right there!"

The person who spoke was He Yushui. She stepped forward and blocked Xu Damao's path, asking him a question.

"Xu Damao, tell me, was it you who did this today?"

Xu Damao retorted illogically.

“Rain, you can’t talk nonsense. Section Chief Cao and the police officers are right behind us.”

"You're going to have to take responsibility for making baseless accusations like this."

Cao Xu walked over and said softly.

"Alright, Xu Damao, then I'll make the decision for you this time."

"Comrade Zitao, could you please make a trip and bring those two lads, Liu Guangfu and Yan Jiekuang, over here?"

Yang Zitao didn't understand what he meant, but he still echoed him.

"Alright, I'll go and bring them back right now."

After saying this, Yang Zitao made a move to leave, but Xu Damao quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"Officer, Section Chief Cao, let's talk this out."

He Yushui shouted.

"Xu Damao, what else is there to say? In the end, it was you who did this."

"If anyone's going to arrest someone, it should be you! You should be paraded through the streets with a pair of worn-out shoes hanging around your neck!"

Xu Damao defended himself.

"You two leaders, you can't listen to He Yushui's nonsense."

"I admit that I got involved in this matter today, but I was just following public opinion."

"It's common knowledge now that Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu are having an affair. People who violate social morality and the marriage law should be publicly criticized and paraded through the streets with their shoes hanging on them."

“But our police station did give him a warning, and released him after a simple check. This is clearly a case of favoritism and bending the law.”

"This action caused a huge uproar in the neighborhood, with widespread public resentment and even some people wanting to vandalize their wedding."

"I had no other choice but to resort to this method. Criticism and beatings can vent public anger and grievances, and protect the reputation of our police station."

Yang Zitao laughed after hearing Xu Damao's sophistry.

"What a joke, Xu Damao. If you want revenge, just say you want revenge. Don't drag our police station into this."

"Whether what we did was right or wrong, the leaders will have the right to criticize and correct us. It's not your place to stand up for us."

He Yushui praised.

"Xiao Yang, you're right. Quickly drag him back to the station and give him a good beating!"

Although he disliked Xu Damao, he had indeed followed up on the matter of He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu.

He also knew that Director Wang was in charge of the case later, and that not investigating it further must have been Director Wang's idea, so why should he go looking for trouble?

"Sister-in-law..."

He knew He Yushui and was aware of her previous relationship with Jiang Hai, the deputy director of the institute.

But now that the two have broken up, this way of addressing him is naturally inappropriate, he said awkwardly.

"Comrade He Yushui, this matter is not my responsibility, nor can I handle it. I am just here today on routine."

"If you have any complaints, you can go to the station and report them to Director Wang or Deputy Director Jiang."

After he finished speaking, he squatted down and looked at the stick-like creature that was tied up with ropes and whose body was a mess.

"Kid, are you alright? Can you stand up?"

Banggeng's face was flushed red, whether from being hit, frozen, or angry.

He Yushui ran quickly to Cao Xu, who had turned into the alley, blocked his way, and asked angrily.

"Cao Xu, as the head of the security department, are you just going to let Xu Damao run rampant and bully the children of employees?"

Cao Xu was speechless. He looked at He Yushui, who was standing in front of him, speaking passionately and defending the injustice, and said coldly.

“He Yushui, if I hadn’t deliberately let this go, you should be at the criticism meeting at the steel rolling mill right now, watching He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu being tried and criticized at the meeting.”

Cao Xu tossed the newspaper in his hand to He Yushui.

"And where did you get the opportunity to publish a statement in the newspaper declaring that you are severing kinship ties?"

"Since you've already decided to leave, why bother meddling in other people's business? Or have you changed your mind?"

He Yushui said calmly.

"You knew I was leaving?"

He Yuzhu pointed to the newspaper that He Yushui had caught.

"If you weren't planning to leave, why bother issuing this statement?"

"Since you've already decided not to leave them a way out, why bother standing up for them now? Don't you think that's hypocritical?"

He Yushui looked at Cao Xu, who was becoming increasingly unfamiliar to her.

"Cao Xu, you've changed. You're not the Cao Xu I used to know."

Cao Xu said calmly.

"I've changed, I've become smarter, and you've changed too, you've become a little silly."

"The Cao Xu you knew died last year on the day you and Jiang Hai had your date during the heavy snow."

Seeing Cao Xu turn to leave, He Yushui called out.

"Cao Xu, don't you even want to ask me where I'm going?"

Cao Xu didn't even turn his head.

Where you go is none of my business.

He Yushui Channel.

"I'm going to Jichun."

Cao Xu stopped in his tracks.

"Jichun, in the three northeastern provinces, is quite cold at this time of year."

"But it's fine, it suits you now."

"It's cold outside, best of luck."

After saying that, Cao Xu walked back to the courtyard house. There was another good show about to begin, and he couldn't miss it.

From this day forward, Cao Xu and He Yushui have officially severed ties and will never again be on the same page.

In the He family's courtyard house, He Yuzhu brought the last dish to the table, and that completed the meal.

Yi Zhonghai looked at the feast that had already filled the table, and then glanced at the crowd who were eagerly waiting.

"Alright, Zhuzi, stop fussing and go change your clothes."

Yan Bugui chimed in from the side.

"That's right, Sha Zhu, go and call your new wife over, and have her properly toast everyone."

"This is the first happy occasion of the year, so we must drink this wine properly, don't you all agree?"

He waved from the side with bangs.

"One cup isn't enough. Today is a special day for Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu. They should each have a cup, right?"

Yan Jiecheng echoed.

"Second Uncle is right. Those of us who work the night shift will wake up in the middle of the night to congratulate you."

"Silly Zhu, you have to toast everyone today, you absolutely have to drink until you're passed out."

He Yuzhu took off his apron and said.

"The fact that you elders and brothers have come today is a great honor for me, Sha Zhu. I'm going all out and will drink with you until we drop!"

Yan Jiefang quipped from the side.

"Silly Zhu, how are you going to consummate your marriage if you're drunk?"

Liu Guangtian tapped Yan Jiefang on the head.
