Love in the Courtyard: Starting with Engineers

After a night's rest, Bai Ling opened her eyes and saw sunlight streaming through the window onto her face.

Hong Kong in March is not as cold as Beijing; on the contrary, it is quite warm.

Bai Ling went to the window to look at the crowds coming and going on the street.

Li Yu, who was standing nearby, sensed Bai Ling's movement and slowly opened his eyes.

After having breakfast at the hotel, Li Yu took Bai Ling for a stroll through the streets of Hong Kong.

Bai Ling came to the street and looked at the dazzling array of goods in the shops, feeling that she was almost overwhelmed by the sight.

Li Yu led Bai Ling to visit each store, and at first Bai Ling complained that the prices were too high.

Left with no other choice, Li Yu took out a HSBC bank deposit slip and showed it to her to see the balance.

Then, one shopping bag after another appeared on Li Yu's body.

By noon, Bai Ling had changed into a dress with lace trim and put on a sun hat.

She also wore an exquisite women's watch on her wrist.

Back at the hotel, Li Yu exclaimed that she couldn't take it anymore.

Now he understands that girls' shopping prowess is limitless, regardless of the era.

After putting everything away in the afternoon, Li Yu led Bai Ling to a large building.

Hang Seng Building

"What are we doing here?"

Li Yu said with a smile, "Your husband's company is right here."

"Here?" Bai Ling asked in disbelief.

Just as Li Yu and Bai Ling arrived at the entrance of Longteng Technology and were about to go in, two burly men blocked their way.

"Who are you looking for?"

"We're looking for Lou Zhenhua," Li Yu said, looking at the two people in front of him.

"Looking for Boss Lou? Just you wait!"

After saying that, one of them turned around and whispered a few words to the receptionist.

Two days ago, I glanced at Bai Ling and Li Yu and then went inside.

Lou Zhenhua came out shortly after.

Lou Zhenhua was startled when he saw Li Yu, and then quickly walked a few steps to Li Yu.

"Brother Li Yu! What brings you here?"

"I've been free lately, so I brought my wife here to see you."

"Oh right, this is my wife, Bai Ling," Li Yu said, pointing to Bai Ling beside him.

Upon hearing the surname Bai, Lou Zhenhua immediately thought of the Bai family in Beijing.

"Hello, hello, I'm Lou Zhenhua," Lou Zhenhua said quickly, extending his hand.

Bai Ling shook hands with Lou Zhenhua and said, "Hello!"

"Come on, let's go inside and talk," Lou Zhenhua said, leading the two inside.

After entering and passing the reception desk, I saw many salespeople constantly making phone calls.

After arriving at the office, Lou Zhenhua made a cup of tea for each of them and then told Li Yu about the current situation of the company.

The first issue is the import and export of goods at the port, because they now need to import all the raw materials they require.

Secondly, there is harassment from local gangs and corrupt police.

Li Yu took a sip of tea, turning the teacup in his hand as he pondered how to solve the problem.

Just then, the office phone rang.

"Hey! What? Okay, I'm on my way!"

"What's wrong?" Li Yu asked, looking at the anxious Lou Zhenhua.

"Another group of people came to the factory to collect protection money."

"I'll go with you."

Lou Zhenhua quickly said, "Brother Li Yu, I'll take care of it. They just want some money."

"No, I want to see what kind of people these are really."

Seeing that Li Yu insisted on going, Lou Zhenhua had no choice but to agree.

"I want to go too," Bai Ling said when she saw that Li Yu didn't intend to take her.

Li Yu hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

The group arrived at the factory gate in Kwun Tong by car.

A group of thugs were seen standing around the factory gate, smoking and holding knives. Several security guards were humbly offering them cigarettes.

Upon seeing Lou Zhenhua approach with two others, the group of thugs surrounded them.

"Boss Lou, it's been a long time!"

"I heard that Boss Lou paid protection money to Hesheng last month."

"What? Do you think the 14K can't protect Boss Lou?"

Lou Zhenhua smiled and said to the leader, "Isn't this a case of making money through harmony?"

"What a wonderful saying, 'harmony brings wealth!' Since Boss Lou has so much money, why not give some to us brothers?"

"We don't want much. Give us whatever amount we've given to Hesheng."

At that moment, one of his henchmen suddenly whispered in his ear:

"Hey bro, look how gorgeous that beautiful woman behind him is!"

After hearing what his younger brother said, the man pushed Lou Zhenhua aside.

"Wow, I didn't expect there to be a beautiful woman here!"

"Sorry, I didn't notice. Let's get acquainted."

He reached out and touched Bai Ling's face.

He had just raised his hand when Li Yu kicked him away with all his might.

The flying scumbag directly broke the bones of several of his underlings behind him.

The underling who had just spoken looked down and saw that Brother Zha's chest was completely caved in.

They're completely dead.

While the group was still in a daze, Li Yu took a step forward and stood in front of them.

He snatched the two knives with both hands.

He charged into the crowd and began hacking away with his hands flying.

In just one minute, a whole group of thugs lay on the ground, none of them still able to stand.

All tendons in hands and hamstrings were severed.

Lou Zhenhua, who was standing to the side, was completely stunned by Li Yu's ruthlessness.

"No wonder he was so confident in entrusting his technology to me back then."

Although Bai Ling frowned, she had seen this kind of scene before.

Li Yu threw the blood-dripping knife to the ground.

They arrived in front of the kid who had spoken to Brother Zha earlier.

"You've got a sharp eye, kid."

After saying that, Li Yu kicked a pebble at his feet into the eyes of the thug lying on the ground.

"what!"

Li Yu turned to Lou Zhenhua and said, "Find a place to bury him."

Lou Zhenhua called a few security guards, gave them some money, and they found a cart from the factory to push the group of people who were still convulsing away.

"Isn't this too harsh?" Bai Ling whispered to Li Yu, who was walking into the factory.

"This is just the beginning. The real show will start tonight. I'm here to deal with these people."

Bai Ling roughly knew what Li Yu was planning to do, but she knew she couldn't stop him.

Upon entering the factory area, Li Yu looked at the endless packaging production line.

"It's still too rough."

"But this is all we can do for now."

After showing Li Yu around the factory, Lou Zhenhua couldn't help but say:

"Provoking the 14k like we did today could be a big problem for us."

"There were too many of them, and they had connections with the police, especially with foreigners."

Li Yu lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said, "It's alright! This trouble will be over after tonight."

After saying that, Li Yu led Bai Ling out of the factory, asking as they walked, "How about we go get some seafood tonight?"

Lou Zhenhua looked at Li Yu, who seemed completely oblivious to any crisis, and shook his head helplessly, his lips twitching.

Now he has no choice but to do as Li Yu says.

At worst, we can just take the whole family and go directly to England.
