Love in the Courtyard: Starting with Engineers

Liu Haizhong, standing outside the door, raised his hand as if to knock, but then hesitated, remembering Li Yu's terrifying fighting prowess.

He wasn't stupid; he couldn't withstand a kick from Li Yu, so he put down his hand, turned around, and went home.

Qin Huairu went home after seeing that Liu Haizhong had failed to persuade Li Yu.

The next day at the steel rolling mill, Zheng Qiushi looked at the long-faced man in front of him and asked him about his relationship with Li Yu.

Zheng Qiushi decided to help Xu Damao when he heard that Li Yu had killed his wife.

Under Zheng Qiushi's arrangement, Xu Damao moved back to the courtyard house, specifically to the old deaf woman's former room.

As for how Zheng Qiushi found Xu Damao, it has to be said that Xu Damao was lucky.

Just as Xu Damao was asking around for work, he happened to run into a former colleague from the publicity department.

The man told him that it seemed Ma Wude, the secretary of the steel rolling mill manager, was looking for him, so he happily ran back to the steel rolling mill.

When Ma Wude heard from the security department that Xu Damao was looking for him, he was shocked. He hadn't even found him yet, but Xu Damao had come to him on his own.

Then he took the person to Zheng Qiushi's office.

As soon as Xu Damao left the steel rolling mill, he saw a girl waiting for him with her bicycle by her side.

Jingru, I have a job now.

Upon hearing this, Qin Jingru asked excitedly, "What kind of job is it?"

Xu Damao proudly declared, "I'm highly regarded by the factory manager. He wants me to go back to the steel rolling mill to show movies. How about that! Aren't you amazing, huh!"

"Amazing! Amazing!" Qin Huairu exclaimed, clapping and jumping.

Xu Damao patted Qin Jingru's butt and said, "Then why don't you know who I am?"

Xu Damao and Qin Jingru chatted and laughed as they prepared to go back and tell their parents the good news.

As for how Qin Jingru and Xu Damao got together...

That day, Qin Jingru and Qin Huairu had a big fight and then Qin Jingru went out. Xu Damao saw Qin Jingru on her way to the station.

Xu Damao went up to Qin Jingru and asked her why she was alone. After listening to Qin Jingru's words...

Xu Damao suggested that the two of them give it a try, and that day Xu Damao took Qin Jingru on a lavish spending spree.

Qin Jingru was eventually won over by Xu Damao's silver tongue.

A few days later, with the help of Xu's parents, the two got married.

When Xu's family returned home and heard that Xu Damao had actually gone back to the steel rolling mill to continue working as a projectionist, they were all happy for him.

Xu Wude then asked Xu Damao what was going on.

Xu Damao then told his father about how he had heard that Zheng Qiushi's secretary had contacted him and how Zheng Qiushi had arranged for him to work at the steel rolling mill.

After listening, Xu Wude frowned and said, "Da Mao, this matter is not as simple as you think. Your factory manager may be using you to deal with Li Yu."

Upon hearing this, Xu Damao nonchalantly replied, "I'm going to deal with Li Yu even without him saying so."

"Hmph! Deal with Li Yu? You really dare to dream!" Xu Wude said.

"Is there any problem dealing with Li Yu?"

Hearing Xu Damao ask this question, Xu Wude wanted nothing more than to slap Xu Damao to death, but he still patiently replied:

"Since Zheng assigned you to deal with Li Yu, it means he can no longer handle Li Yu at the factory."

"If a factory manager can't even handle his own subordinates, you can imagine what kind of power Li Yu has."

Upon hearing Xu Wude's analysis, Xu Damao became somewhat anxious: "Then what should we do? Should we just outwardly comply while inwardly resisting?"

Xu Wude said, "If you dare to outwardly comply but inwardly defy me, that Zheng guy will definitely not let you off the hook. At most, you'll just be able to annoy Li Yu a little."

"In that case, even if he's unhappy with you, he won't hurt you badly, but if you offend him too much, you definitely won't get away with it in the end."

Xu Damao never expected that this job would become so hot to handle.

Seeing Xu Damao's worried expression, Xu Wude said, "Don't worry, from now on you just need to stand behind that person and cheer them on whenever someone is dealing with Li Yu."

Just as Li Yu and Bai Ling were having dinner at home, Qin Huairu, who had been begging for help all day, returned to the Jia family.

When Madam Jia saw Qin Huairu return, she shouted, "Qin Huairu, where have you been all day? Are you trying to starve me to death?"

Qin Huairu immediately yelled back, "All you ever think about is eating! There's still no news about Bang Geng! All you ever do is eat!"

"Since the 'stick' idea hasn't come out yet, why didn't you go ask Li Yu for help?"

Upon hearing Jia Zhangshi's words, Qin Huairu said, "Begging is useless!"

"Since you can't get what you want, just throw a tantrum and say he raped you."

Jia Zhangshi's words suddenly enlightened Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu unbuttoned her coat as she walked toward Li Yu's house.

"Bang!" Qin Huairu pushed open Li Yu's door and pulled open her clothes to reveal a patch of white skin.

Bai Ling and Li Yu, who were eating, were both stunned.

At this moment, Qin Huairu suddenly shouted, "Li Yu is raping a woman!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ling stood up and kicked Qin Huairu, sending her flying into the courtyard.

Hearing the commotion, Sha Zhu opened the door and saw Qin Huairu flying out of Li Yu's house.

He rushed to Qin Huairu's side and saw the white patch on her chest, which made his blood boil instantly.

People who came out of the courtyard to watch pointed and whispered when they saw Sha Zhu holding Qin Huairu with her clothes open.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Isn't this Sha Zhu a eunuch?"

Some people couldn't help but exclaim, "So big! So white!"

He had barely finished speaking when his wife grabbed his ear.

"Wife, I was wrong, oh...it hurts."

When Sha Zhu saw that everyone in the crowd was looking at Qin Huairu's chest, he quickly pulled her clothes up.

"What's wrong with Sister Qin?" Sha Zhu asked, supporting Qin Huairu.

Just then, Bai Ling shouted, "Qin Huairu, you shameless bastard! You came to Li Yu's door in broad daylight to seduce him and slander him! If I hadn't been there, you would have succeeded!"

"Look everyone in the courtyard! This is the second time Qin Huairu has seduced and framed Li Yu!"

"This is a classic case of 'if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too!' The son is a thief, and the mother is a slut!"

The onlookers then realized that Qin Huairu had been beaten up because she had failed to seduce someone.

"That Qin Huairu is a real scoundrel."

"Look, Sha Zhu is still hugging Qin Huairu!"

"So what if a eunuch is hugging her?"

......

Hearing the vile whispers in the courtyard, Qin Huairu cried, "I just wanted to beg him to leave my son Banggeng alone! What did I do wrong!"

Sha Zhu also said, "What's wrong with a mother saving her child?"

Upon hearing this, these people all softened and felt that Qin Huairu's situation was understandable.

Li Yu sneered and said, "Save the child? So you're planning to frame me? On what grounds?"

"Why should I be sacrificed to save your child?"

"Let me tell you clearly, Qin Huairu, I will not let Bang Geng go, not even if the King of Heaven himself comes!"

After saying that, he took Bai Ling and went home.
