Love in the Courtyard: Starting with Engineers

Chapter 38 The Vegetable Cellar: "Catching the Thief"

Everyone in the courtyard was stunned when he said that.

He Yuzhu then jokingly remarked from the side, "So it turns out Xu Damao can't keep an eye on his wife."

"Shut up!"

Xu Damao turned to Sha Zhu and yelled, "This is none of your business!"

After saying "coward," Sha Zhu stopped arguing with Xu Damao.

After all, he came to watch the show.

"Xu Damao!" Li Yu's voice suddenly came.

Li Yu then said, "Today I went to the Lou family."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately erupted in discussion, wondering, "Could what Xu Damao said be true?"

"Could it be that the Li family's son has really taken a liking to Xu Damao's wife?"

Li Yu ignored the murmurs of the crowd.

He continued, "First of all, I didn't go to the Lou family voluntarily; they invited me. There should be quite a few people at the steel mill who saw me today."

Secondly, I didn't get involved in anything concerning you and Lou Xiao'e within the Lou family.

He paused, his eyes fixed sharply on Xu Damao.

"That's all I have to say. If you continue to spout nonsense, don't blame me for being impolite."

"You're welcome?"

"I'd like to see just how impolite you'll be!"

After saying that, Xu Damao took a step forward, glared fiercely at Li Yu, and then pointed at Li Yu with his finger and said:

"Li Yu, don't think I'll believe you just because you say that. You must have been the one who ordered it."

"If you don't give me an explanation today, I'll show you what I'm made of!"

Li Yu slapped Xu Damao's hand away and said, "Get out, right now!"

Seeing that Li Yu not only didn't explain but also clapped his hand, Xu Damao immediately raised his fist and punched Li Yu.

Li Yu turned around and delivered a powerful whip kick with a loud "bang!" Xu Damao was sent flying into the courtyard.

As it flew out, it knocked the crowd of spectators off balance.

Xu Damao is now lying on the ground, feeling a burning pain in his chest. Although he has no broken bones, he is still seriously injured.

Now his hands and face are covered with scratches from the rough bottom edge.

"Xu Damao, I just gave you a chance."

Xu Damao heard Li Yu's voice coming from above him.

"Xu Damao, I'll say it again, your divorce has absolutely nothing to do with me. If you dare to cause trouble again, I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life."

"Try it if you don't believe me."

"Hahaha, Xu Damao, you're not so great after all! I thought you were something special!"

Sha Zhu said to Xu Damao with a mocking expression.

The other people in the courtyard wanted to laugh but dared not, feeling uncomfortable holding it in.

Xu Damao slowly used his hands to push himself up and said fiercely:

"Li Yu, you wait, I'll call the police and have you arrested. Do you dare to lay a hand on me?"

"I acted in self-defense," Li Yu said, patting off non-existent dust from his hands. "Everyone in the hospital saw it."

"You..." Xu Damao angrily pointed at Li Yu.

"Enough!" Liu Haizhong strode up to Xu Damao when it was his turn to go on stage.

"Xu Damao, aren't you embarrassed enough? Go home right now!"

Yan Bugui also said with a straight face: "That's right! This obviously has nothing to do with Li Yu."

"If you keep causing trouble, I'll report you to the neighborhood committee for making trouble."

Xu Damao saw that no one was on his side and that he had no evidence to prove it.

Xu Damao glared fiercely at the two old men and Li Yu, then clutched his chest and went home.

When everyone realized there was no good show to watch, they all dispersed.

Li Yu took a broom and swept the trash on the ground into an empty bucket.

Just as Xu Damao closed the door, "Bang!" Li Yu kicked the door open.

Then, carrying the bucket, he went to Xu Damao's bedside and dumped everything onto Xu Damao's bed.

Xu Damao watched helplessly as Li Yu calmly kicked down the door and took out the trash.

Seeing this scene, Xu Damao broke down instantly, sitting on the ground with tears and snot streaming down his face.

After crying for a while, she stood up and swept the trash off the bed onto the floor. Just then, Yi Zhonghai came over.

Seeing the mess on Xu Damao's ground and hearing the sounds he had heard earlier, Yi Zhonghai knew that this must have been Li Yuqian's doing.

"Da Mao, do you want to get revenge on Li Yu?"

Xu Damao looked at Yi Zhonghai, wondering what Yi Zhonghai was up to.

Seeing that Xu Damao didn't believe him, Yi Zhonghai quickly said, "I also hate Li Yu, and I also want to take revenge on Li Yu."

"I think we can join forces."

Yi Zhonghai and Xu Damao plotted for half an hour.

Yi Zhonghai was still excited when he left Xu Damao's house.

Just as Yi Zhonghai was about to open the door and enter the house, someone called out, "Grandpa, Grandpa."

When Yi Zhonghai heard someone calling him, he looked around and said, "Here's the vegetable cellar, here's the cellar."

Looking towards the vegetable cellar, Yi Zhonghai saw Qin Huairu and quickly went over to her.

Just as Yi Zhonghai arrived at the cellar entrance, before he could even speak, Qin Huairu pulled him inside. Startled, Yi Zhonghai said:

"Qin Huairu, what are you doing!"

"Grandpa, I need to talk to you."

"Why do you have to say it here when you can't say it outside?" Yi Zhonghai said angrily.

Qin Huairu grabbed Yi Zhonghai's hand and said, "Uncle, I beg you, please help my family. We're really struggling to make ends meet."

"Now even Sha Zhu isn't willing to help my family anymore, so I won't get paid this month or next month."

"There are three children to support, and my mother-in-law also needs to take painkillers."

Yi Zhonghai was momentarily captivated by the warmth of Qin Huairu's hands.

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai didn't react, Qin Huairu thought he wouldn't agree, so she quickly said, "Uncle, could you please do me a favor and help my family?"

Qin Huairu began to coax Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai hadn't seen anything like this in almost twenty years, and he couldn't control himself. He pulled Qin Huairu into his arms and said:

"I can help your family, but how will you repay me?"

Although Qin Huairu resisted when Yi Zhonghai hugged her, she still said softly, "As long as Uncle Yi is willing to help my family in the future, I will have Banggeng take care of you in your old age."

After listening, Yi Zhonghai still held Qin Huairu tightly and asked, "Anything else?"

"And what else? What else?" Qin Huairu asked, feigning ignorance.

Li Yu, who was reading at home, heard a noise coming from the cellar and thought a thief had broken in, so he came over to check.

As soon as he arrived, he saw light coming from under the door. He went closer and saw that it was Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu.

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu were struggling without making any progress, he exchanged a bottle containing some white powder.

He blew the powder through the crack in the door, and it entered Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai's bodies with their breath.

The two people in the cellar inexplicably began to feel hot all over, and their gazes toward each other became increasingly unfocused.

Seeing the two men begin to undress, Li Yu went into the courtyard and shouted, "Someone's stealing vegetables!"

Hearing the shouts, everyone rushed to the cellar. He Yuzhu pushed open the cellar door and saw two pale-skinned people embracing and writhing.
