Love in the Courtyard: Starting with Engineers

Chapter 42 Xu Damao's "Conspiracy"

After hearing what the woman said, the security guards understood that today's incident was all orchestrated by Xu Damao, who hired someone to frame Li Yu.

Wu Wenhua and several security guards took Xu Damao and the woman to the security department's interrogation room. Under interrogation, both the woman and Xu Damao confessed.

According to their confession, this woman was hired by Xu Damao for 200 yuan, and Xu Damao told her about Li Yu's situation.

The woman was going to refuse, but because Xu Damao offered so much and she could also extort money from Li Yu, she closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and agreed.

When she first entered the security department, she kept begging for mercy and making excuses, but after a few minutes of questioning by the security department, she confessed everything.

Just as Li Yu and Bai Ling were about to leave the security department, Yang Weimin and Li Huaide also rushed to the security department.

When Yang Weimin and Li Huaide received the news that Li Yu had been falsely accused of rape, they rushed over from their offices without stopping, fearing that the security department would take action against Li Yu.

The two who came to see Li Yu unharmed breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Li, are you alright?"

"Li Yu, are you alright?"

Li Huaide and Yang Weimin asked in unison.

"Thank you both for your concern. I'm alright."

Following Wu Wenhua's narration, Li Huaide and Yang Weimin also learned what had happened.

"That damn Xu Damao, I'm definitely not going to let him get away with this. He'll be fired soon."

Li Huaide said through gritted teeth.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Yang Weimin, Li Yu said goodbye to Bai Ling and rode his bicycle out of the factory gate.

Bai Ling looked at Li Yu, puzzled, and asked, "What did you give that woman to eat? Why did she suddenly tell the truth?"

Li Yu said casually, "It's just a little gadget. It's a good thing that will make your stomach rot if you lie after eating it."

Bai Ling knew immediately that Li Yu didn't want to talk about it and was just giving her a perfunctory answer. After spending some time together, Bai Ling discovered that no matter how you asked, if Li Yu didn't want to talk about something, it was fine.

He always replies to read messages randomly. If you ask him why he knows so much technology at such a young age, he'll tell you, "Because God said, 'Let there be light,' and there was light." If you ask him why, he'll say, "How would I know what God said?"

The two chatted idly along the way until they arrived at the courtyard house. As soon as Li Yu entered, he was stopped by Yan Bugui.

"Li Yu, I heard you were framed by Xu Damao and his men today. Tell me the details!"

"Hey, Uncle San, you're pretty well-informed. What's the specific situation? It's exactly as you described."

After saying that, Li Yu pushed his bicycle and went back.

"Hey! What kind of answers are these? If you don't want to say, then don't say." After saying that, Yan Bugui started fiddling with his potted plants that were almost dead.

Every day after get off work, Bai Ling would cook while Li Yu either read or drew.

Li Yu returned home and lay down on the recliner, looking at his system panel.

Li Yu exchanged for the top-and-bottom combined blowing converter technology. In fact, he could have exchanged for something better with his current emotional points, but unfortunately, he couldn't use it after exchanging for it.

Just as Li Yu was preoccupied with thoughts about the converter, Mr. and Mrs. Xu Wude rushed to the steel mill after hearing that their son had been detained in the security department for falsely accusing a steel mill engineer.

Xu Wude begged the security department for a long time before they finally let him in to see Xu Damao.

Upon seeing his parents, Xu Damao immediately cried out, "Dad! Mom! Help me!"

Xu's father walked up to Xu Damao and slapped his swollen face across the cheek, yelling, "How could I have given birth to such a bastard like you?"

"Are you brainless? You dare mess with a level four engineer?"

"And did you know that he's not just a Level 4 Engineer? According to what I've heard, even Bai Ling, who's with him, is his bodyguard?"

"Do you even know that your steel mill manager doesn't have bodyguards? Are you out of your mind? How dare you mess with someone like that!"

Upon hearing Xu Wude's words, Xu Damao immediately went limp with fear: "Dad, you have to save me! I heard they're going to send me to the far northwest to die!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xu panicked and grabbed Mr. Xu's hand, her voice trembling with tears, asking, "What should we do?! Da Mao is our only son! If he really goes to the Northwest, our Xu family will be without an heir!"

"Sigh~ The only way now is to try to beg Li Yu and see if he can let Da Mao go."

"Yes! Yes! Go and beg Li Yu, Dad, you must go and beg him, I don't want to go to the Northwest!" Xu Damao said, his voice trembling with tears.

Xu Wude gave Xu Damao a few instructions, then gave him the quilt and some cornbread he had brought before heading straight to Li Yu's house.

After finishing cooking, Bai Ling saw Li Yu drawing again and teased, "What is the great engineer Li drawing now? Should I chew up the food and feed it to you?"

Li Yu, who was engrossed in drawing, immediately buried himself in his work upon hearing this.

Seeing that Li Yu didn't even look up, Bai Ling went over to watch Li Yu draw.

Li Yu drew without using any tools, and every line and symbol looked as if it had been drawn by drawing software.

Not only is it beautiful, but it's also incredibly fast, almost like you don't need to think.

Bai Ling was engrossed in watching when the Xu Wood couple, who had rushed over, knocked on the door.

Bai Ling frowned and went to open the door. Seeing that they were strangers, she looked at them with a puzzled expression.

Upon seeing Bai Ling, Xu Wude knew that this was the person sent by his superiors to protect Li Yu.

"Hello, we're here to see Li Yu," Xu Wude said.

When Li Yu saw that it was Mr. and Mrs. Xu Wude, he let them in.

"Brother Li, you probably already know why we've come here, so I won't beat around the bush."

"Tell me what conditions you want to let Xu Damao go."

Only after hearing Xu Wude's words did Li Yu take a serious look at Xu Wude.

"What conditions? Tell me what conditions you can offer me?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Wude knew that he was likely to suffer a huge financial loss today.

"How about this, Brother Li, as long as you're willing to let Xu Damao go, we'll go to the neighborhood office and I'll transfer ownership of these two rooms in my house to you."

Unexpectedly, Li Yu simply said, "It's not enough."

Li Yu knew very well that Xu Wude must have accumulated a lot of gold during the years he followed Lou Bancheng, and there must have been gold in Lou Xiao'e's betrothal gifts as well.

Seeing this, Xu Wude said, "Brother Li, why don't you name a price? I won't haggle over anything as long as I have it."

Li Yu bluntly replied, "Two rooms plus ten small yellow croakers."

When Xu Wude heard this, he almost cursed Xu Damao to death in his heart. The ten small yellow croakers were basically all his wealth, but he still held back because of Xu Damao.

"Good deal. Prepare Xu Damao's letter of understanding. I'll go get the property deed and the small yellow fish right now."

After the two left, Li Yu and Bai Ling sat down to eat.

"Li Yu, do they really have that many small yellow croakers?"

"Of course, others may not be able to produce what he, Xu Wude, certainly has more than enough."
