Courtyard House: Starting as an engineer, crushing a yard full of poultry

“It’s nothing. I’m already very satisfied to have been able to do my part. With these people arrested, the safety of me and my family is guaranteed. I also want to thank the organization for sending people to protect my safety.”

Li Xiangdong did not mention the deaf old lady immediately.

Li Xiangdong knew very well that what he had just done was a form of torture to extract a confession, which was not something to be proud of in private.

Based on what these people said, Li Xiangdong also believed that the organization would definitely be able to find the deaf old lady.

Chapter 127 The Storm Subsides

With all the spies from the enemy organization captured, the night in Beijing returned to tranquility.

Most ordinary people had no idea what had happened that night and locked their doors and windows at home.

The next day.

The official response in Beijing was very swift; they immediately informed the city's residents via radio early in the morning.

Last night was just a military exercise.

The official explanation gave most people a clear understanding of the situation.

After all, the gunfire during the battle lasted for nearly ten minutes that night.

Ordinary people have never seen such a scene before.

However, upon hearing that it was just a drill, they naturally felt relieved.

This is Li Xiangdong's house in a courtyard house.

"It's alright, Xiaoli, don't worry. That Section Chief Wang was just trying to take advantage of you. Luckily, I found out in time, so there was no loss. He's been taken away now and won't be seen in front of us again."

Li Xiangdong could only use white lies to soothe Yu Li's feelings.

This matter was kept extremely secret.

Unless the authorities say so, Li Xiangdong absolutely cannot tell anyone.

In the vast city of Beijing, how could such a large-scale enemy organization of 26 people be hidden?

If this matter were to spread, it would likely cause panic among the people of Beijing.

As for Yu Li, it can only be said that Section Chief Wang has a dirty heart and wants to do some dirty things.

Fortunately, Yu Li had already fallen into a coma at that time and was completely unaware of what happened next.

After waking up, I found myself in the hospital.

The couple accompanying Yu Li at the hospital were Yu Dajiang and his wife.

"Don't worry, Brother Dong, I've calmed down a lot. I never thought Section Chief Wang was that kind of person. Luckily you arrived in time, otherwise I don't know how I would face you in the future."

Yu Li cried softly.

In Yu Li's heart, she was already Li Xiangdong's wife.

Fortunately, this time there were no irreversible consequences; otherwise, Yu Li would have regretted it for the rest of her life.

"Don't worry, Xiaoli. The steel mill has done a good job internally this time. They've reviewed all the personnel again. People like Section Chief Wang are much less likely to appear again in the future, almost nonexistent. Just be more careful in the future."

Li Xiangdong also felt extremely guilty.

If I had known that an enemy organization would do something like this, I should have prepared in advance.

Fortunately, they had a backup plan in case Yu Li was captured by an enemy organization.

I'm afraid I'll also find myself in a dilemma.

"Just rest at home for the next couple of days. The leaders at the steel mill have already arranged for you to have a few days off. My vacation is also scheduled here, so we can do some things we want to do at home, and I can take you out for a drive."

Li Xiangdong gently stroked Yu Li's head.

……

In the small house where the deaf old lady lives.

Yi Zhonghai also took a day off today to have a proper talk with the deaf old lady about this matter at home.

The neighbors in the courtyard also heard the gunshots yesterday.

Most ordinary people didn't know what had happened, but they knew perfectly well what was going on.

Last night's gunfight must be related to Li Xiangdong, and it also involves the forces behind the deaf old lady.

"Grandma, now that things have come to this, I advise you to turn yourself in. You might get a lenient outcome. If the person behind you betrays you, it will implicate many of us."

Yi Zhonghai said helplessly.

Last night, the deaf old lady also couldn't sleep a wink.

The deaf old woman knew all too well what happened from the sound of the gunshot until it ended.

It must be the organization behind him that carried out the operation against Li Xiangdong.

But this morning I saw Li Xiangdong and Yu Li at home.

That only means that the enemy intelligence organization behind you failed in its mission.

The deaf old lady breathed a sigh of relief.

Because every time the enemy organization takes action, they hide a small poison pill in their molar.

It's practically impossible for them to be captured alive; most of them will commit suicide by poisoning themselves.

If all these people from the enemy organization are dead, then I am actually the safest person now.

Because there is no evidence, no matter who comes, as long as you insist on denying it, there is nothing they can do to you.

"Xiao Yi, you are a smart person. Don't mention this matter again. Just pretend you never knew about it. I won't be in any danger, and you won't be implicated."

The deaf old woman said with absolute certainty.

Hearing the deaf old lady say that, Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to accept it.

I have a family and a job now. If I turn myself in, I don't know how long I will be sentenced.

Even if we take the deaf old lady in too, what difference will it make?

In the end, it's not just me who suffers; I just want to live out my days in peace.

When I get old, I just need someone to take care of me, and I can live out the rest of my life in peace and tranquility.

"Since you insist on doing this, destroy all the things that are connected to the organization. If someone finds out, you'll be in trouble."

Yi Zhonghai said helplessly.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. Everything will be the same as before."

The deaf old lady seemed to be comforting Yi Zhonghai's emotions, but she was actually also secretly comforting herself.

……

Yu Dajiang's house.

Most of the people at the steel rolling mill were working as usual, except for Li Xiangdong and his wife, and Yu Dajiang, who were given a few days off.

The leaders of the steel rolling mill explained the situation to Yu Dajiang.

Yu Dajiang was also made to sign a confidentiality agreement, under strict circumstances, that this matter must not be leaked.

Only a handful of people in 407 clearly know about this matter.

Moreover, they are all high-level leaders.

"Old man, are our daughter and son-in-law really alright? There were soldiers standing inside and outside the hospital that day."

Huang Guihua said anxiously.

"I told you it's nothing, so don't ask any more questions."

Yu Dajiang dared not reveal the real reason; if he did, Huang Guihua would faint on the spot.

Fortunately, this time it ended without any real danger.

Seeing Li Xiangdong return safe and sound today, Yu Dajiang breathed a sigh of relief.

Those bad guys should have been arrested by now.

At least safety is guaranteed.

Just as the two were talking, Li Xiangdong walked in with Yu Li.

"Mom and Dad, it's a holiday these days, why don't we all go out and have some fun to relax?"

Li Xiangdong said with a smile.

"We two old folks won't get involved in your affairs. If you want to go out and have fun, go on a trip and relax. I heard the boss has approved seven days of leave for you, so have a good rest."

Yu Dajiang said, controlling his emotions.

"Let's go on a trip after we get married. For now, let's just wander around Beijing. Mom and Dad can come along too."

Chapter 128 A Bountiful Harvest

Unable to resist Li Xiangdong's enthusiastic invitation, Yu Dajiang and his wife had no choice but to bring their three youngest sons.

The family enjoyed a happy time strolling around Beijing, eating, drinking, and having fun, relaxing and having a good time.

This was also a huge psychological test for Yu Dajiang.
