I painted an aircraft carrier on the courtyard house for Dongda University.

"No wonder when I came back today, everyone in the courtyard was subtly telling me that Weiguo has a new girlfriend. It's a good thing my brother has a girlfriend, and it's good that he's getting married. What? In the eyes of these scoundrels, everyone is dirty? I know that the customs and traditions of your Xia country are different from ours, but these thoughts are too malicious! My brother and I have a pure revolutionary friendship and sibling affection. Do they think there is something shady between us? Or are they just trying to harm me and my brother, who are top technical experts in Xia country? Just to slander us and affect the steel mill and even the industrial development of Beijing? I really can't understand who else but enemy agents would have such thoughts."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned pale, and the more timid among them began to tremble.

Natasha didn't stop, turning directly to Director Wang and saying, "By the way, Director Wang, I'd like to ask, who gave these people such audacity? Was it the steel mill? Or were you, Director Wang? Aren't you afraid of causing a diplomatic incident? Or do you want me to immediately call back home and inform them that Xia Country is unfriendly to our technical personnel and that the overall environment is unsuitable for our technical personnel to live in?"

Director Wang was so frightened that he quickly grabbed her hand, his shirt soaked with sweat, and said repeatedly, "Comrade Natasha, please calm down! It's a misunderstanding! It's all a huge misunderstanding!"

Yi Zhonghai's face turned deathly pale. He took a half step back, his voice trembling, "Director Wang, don't listen to her nonsense! We're just... we're just worried about Director Zhou's safety..."

Natasha sneered and pointed to the courtyard wall: "Worried about safety and need to climb over the wall? That ladder is still sitting in front of your house. The plaster on Jia Dongxu's trouser legs is still there. The footprints on my wall should still be very clear. Do you want to see for yourself?"

Director Wang glanced at the courtyard wall, then at the ladder in front of Yi Zhonghai's house, his face instantly darkening as he swept his gaze across the crowd with a menacing aura.

Everyone lowered their heads, wishing they could disappear into the crowd and avoid Director Wang's piercing gaze.

Director Wang strode up to Liu Guangtian, his tone extremely serious: "Guangtian, tell me, how did Jia Dongxu get into Zhouwei State?"

Just as Liu Guangtian was struggling with his decision, Liu Guangqi's voice rang out at the right moment: "Guangtian, tell the truth and cooperate obediently. This matter has nothing to do with our family, don't do anything foolish."

Upon hearing this, everyone stared at Liu Guangqi in shock, even Liu Haizhong's eyes widened in disbelief.

Liu Guangtian breathed a sigh of relief and confessed truthfully with his head down: "Director Wang, it was... it was Jia Dongxu who climbed the ladder and opened the Zhou family's courtyard gate."

Upon hearing this, Director Wang turned around with a grim expression and looked at Yi Zhonghai, who was slumped on the ground.

He then turned his gaze to Yan Fugui: "Yan Fugui, you are currently the only liaison for Courtyard No. 95. Please tell us the details."

Yan Fugui was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. His eyes darted around, and he gritted his teeth and stepped forward: "Director Wang, we arrived late and we don't know the details, but we did see Jia Dongxu open the door and come out." After saying that, he tried to retreat back into the crowd.

When Liu Haizhong saw Director Wang looking at him, he stomped his feet anxiously and secretly tugged at Yan Fugui's arm.

Yan Fugui hurriedly shrank back into the crowd. When Natasha mentioned the "diplomatic incident" earlier, his legs went weak and he didn't dare to say a word.

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai came to his senses, his eyes filled with hatred.

He knew that only by completely ruining Zhou Weiguo's reputation could he have a chance to turn things around: "Director Wang, even if we entered the courtyard and room in the wrong way, it's true that Zhou Weiguo shared a bed with this woman! Everyone in the courtyard saw it! There's no way to fake that, is there?"

Director Wang looked at Zhou Weiguo, secretly feeling anxious.

Just when everyone's attention had been diverted to the way they entered, Yi Zhonghai's words pulled the focus back to the entrance.

Left with no other option, he asked, "Weiguo, is this Comrade Tian Zao your fiancée? When are you planning to register your marriage?"

Zhou Weiguo understood that Director Wang wanted to cover for him and was preparing to go home to get his marriage certificate to end this farce when suddenly a jumble of footsteps came from outside the courtyard.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw two people leading four police officers into the east courtyard.

The leaders were none other than Wu Qianjin and Wu Yuejin.

Director Wang frowned and asked in confusion, "Director Chen? What's going on here?"

The robust-looking Director Chen explained with a wry smile, "Director Wang, we received a report that someone is having illicit relationships, so we came to check it out."

Director Wang frowned and glanced at Zhou Weiguo: "Received a report? This area is under the jurisdiction of Jiaodaokou Police Station. Wouldn't it be inappropriate for your Changqiao Police Station to handle this? Otherwise, how about we invite Chief Li from Jiaodaokou over?"

Before Director Chen could respond, Wu Yuejin spoke up viciously: "Zhou Weiguo, didn't expect that, did you? You enjoyed beating me, didn't you? And you, Tian Zao, you really are blind! Someone tricked you into coming to their house with just a few words? Now look what's happened! Two sluts, messing around with women! I'll make sure your reputations are known throughout Beijing!"

Zhou Weiguo and Tian Zao exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with disdain.

Zhou Weiguo looked at Wu Qianjin: "Wu Qianjin, are you involved in this too? You've already been kicked out of the steel mill, and you still don't think that's enough?"

Wu Qianjin's face darkened: "Zhou Weiguo, don't you dare bark like a dog here. We have dirt on you now, and you're going to get what's coming to you."

Zhou Weiguo looked completely innocent: "Handbook? What handbook? I haven't done anything wrong!"

Yi Zhonghai's eyes lit up, and he ran to Wu Yuejin: "Director Wu, I'm reporting! I'm reporting Zhou Weiguo for having illicit affairs. Everyone in the institute is a witness. We just caught him and this woman in bed together."

Liu Haizhong was excited and wanted to step forward to show off, but Liu Guangqi grabbed him.

He looked at Liu Guangqi with a puzzled expression, but the other man just held him tightly and didn't say anything. In the end, Liu Haizhong really didn't go forward again.

Yan Fugui was smarter; after seeing Zhou Weiguo's calm demeanor, he silently retreated back into the crowd.

At this time, many people in the courtyard were awakened by the noise and gathered at the entrance of the east wing, discussing the matter.

"Did Director Zhou Weiguo really have an affair?"

"That's not called cheating, that's called having promiscuous relationships!"

"Then he's finished this time?"

"That's it? It's not that bad. At worst, you can just marry her. She's a technician, not some government official. As long as she's skilled, what does reputation matter?"

Seeing this, Wu Yuejin laughed loudly: "Zhou Weiguo, how unpopular are you usually? So many people have come to mess with you! Alright, not bad haul today. Chief Chen, arrest them! Whether you marry Tian Zao or not, I'll arrange for people from the newspaper to take pictures at your station in a bit. Tomorrow, that bastard Zhou Weiguo will be 'famous throughout the country'!"
