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

Yan Fugui immediately understood Zhou Weiguo's meaning and quickly replied, "Alright, Director Zhou, don't worry, I never lie."

Zhou Weiguo warned Yan Fugui, and seeing that he understood, he said no more.

Turning to Qin Huairu again, he said, "Qin Huairu, since this has happened, I, Zhou Weiguo, am not an unreasonable person. Let's report it to the police. If it's Zhu Zi's fault, he should be executed or sentenced to life imprisonment; if it's not Zhu Zi's fault, then we should have a proper discussion."

"Hey, Zhou Weiguo's not bad, isn't he? He's not even protecting Sha Zhu?"

"You're kidding! He's a section chief; what leader doesn't cherish their reputation?"

"Nonsense! With so many people watching, do you think Zhou Weiguo can cover it up?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu was not pleased at all; instead, she instantly flew into a rage: "No! Uh, no, no, you can't call the police! Uncle Guo, I beg you, if you call the police, how am I supposed to live? I'd rather just kill myself right here!"

"Yes, no matter what, Qin Huairu is divorced from her husband and has an affair with Zhuzi. It's not a pleasant thing to say!"

"Exactly! Two people having casual relationships before marriage is a big problem. What will happen to the man? How will he live?"

"That's right, she could be drowned in spit! A widow and her child, she's really being bullied! I think Zhou Weiguo is using this to threaten Qin Huairu!"

Hearing someone voice their support, Qin Huairu continued to feign distress, covering her face and sobbing, "Waaah!"

Listening to the murmurs in the crowd, Zhou Weiguo looked at Qin Huairu and said, "Qin Huairu, if you won't let me call the police, then tell me your demands. What do you want? Or, shall we report it to the neighborhood committee?"

Qin Huairu's eyes lit up when she heard this.

He blurted out instinctively, "For Uncle Guo, I... I beg you, I beg you to spare Dong..."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Weiguo almost burst out laughing. Forcing back his laughter, he looked at Qin Huairu with a mocking expression: "Qin Huairu, are you sure you want me to let Jia Dongxu go?"

Qin Huairu then realized that she had not only tricked Dongxu into getting a divorce, but also tricked Jia's family into giving her a job. More importantly, she had just had sex with Zhuzi yesterday.

If Dongxu knew the truth, he would kill her first. But since things had come to this, she had to maintain her image, so she devised a plan.

Qin Huairu glanced at Zhou Weiguo and his group, then feigned a pitiful expression: "Uncle Weiguo, although I am a divorced woman, I am by no means fickle. Since I promised Zhuzi, I will follow him from now on. I beg you, Uncle Weiguo, to grant Zhuzi's request to marry me. I promise to serve Zhuzi well in the future. I only beg you, I only beg you to let Dongxu go."

"Hiss—" The people around exclaimed in surprise.

"Qin Huairu is such a good woman. She actually went to such lengths to save that good-for-nothing Jia Dongxu from the Jia family?"

"Yes, I never imagined she would sacrifice so much for the Jia family."

"One should marry someone like Qin Huairu."

Hearing these whispers, Qin Huairu lowered her head, a barely perceptible smile appearing on her lips.

Zhou Weiguo was somewhat bewildered. Wasn't this woman afraid that Jia Dongxu would come after her and fight her to the death? Could it be that Jia Dongxu had initiated the divorce? Impossible, could Jia Dongxu have such awareness?

Qin Huairu pondered: if Zhou Weiguo agreed to let Jia Dongxu go, she would secretly go to the police station and reveal what the deaf old woman had said about Jia. If she told the police, it would be difficult for Jia Dongxu to get out; perhaps Jia Zhangshi would never be able to leave the city.

"Dongxu, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you. I'm doing this all for our child's sake. Don't worry, everything the He and Zhou families own will belong to us in the future, I promise."

At this moment, Yu Li was completely stunned. Helplessly, she hugged Natasha and broke down in tears.

Seeing his wife crying, He Yuzhu finally realized what was happening and rushed to her side: "Wife, believe me, I didn't do anything to Qin Huairu, and I didn't threaten her! I didn't do anything with her last night..."

"Slap!" Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Weiguo slapped him on the head.

Looking at Sha Zhu's appearance, Zhou Weiguo really wanted to slap him a few more times: When it comes to the crucial moment of the performance, you have to give me the ending?

Zhou Weiguo turned to Qin Huairu, looking puzzled. "Qin Huairu, Zhuzi says he didn't have a relationship with you at all. Do you have any evidence? Like Zhuzi's underwear or something? Besides, you both have your own versions of events. Who should we believe? To catch a thief red-handed, you need to catch them in the act. That's the rule. You can't just rely on words, can you?"

Qin Huairu was speechless for a moment, only then realizing that she had acted impulsively.

Last night, the old lady said she would testify for me, so why hasn't she shown up yet? As long as the deaf old lady shows up, everyone knows that she dotes on Sha Zhu the most, and no one will doubt that she is giving false testimony.

She looked frantically towards the backyard, but couldn't see the deaf old woman anywhere.

Left with no other choice, he gritted his teeth and said, "The old lady in the backyard saw it; she's a witness."

Zhou Weiguo's eyes lit up, and he said seriously, "Alright, everyone come with me to the backyard and ask the deaf old lady for clarification."

The group arrived at the back room, but there was no response to their knocking. They pushed the door open and found it bolted from the inside. This realization made Zhou Weiguo's heart skip a beat. Had he gotten into trouble with his drugs? Panicked, he pounded on the door and shouted, "Deaf old lady, open the door! Deaf old lady, open the door!"

After shouting for a while without any response, the crowd became tense.

Zhou Weiguo shouted at the old woman, "Auntie, didn't you bring the deaf old lady her breakfast this morning?"

An older woman looked pale and at a loss: "Weiguo, I left breakfast for the old lady last night, but I didn't come this morning. I hope something happened to her?"

Zhou Weiguo looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, please bear witness that I kicked the door because I was worried about the deaf old lady." After saying that, he kicked the door open.

The crowd rushed into the house and found the deaf old woman lying on the bed with a large puddle of vomit on the floor.

An older woman rushed over, crying out in alarm, "Grandma, what's wrong? Don't scare me!"

Zhou Weiguo stepped forward and checked her pulse to confirm she was alive. Just as he was about to slap her to test her, the deaf old woman opened her eyes in confusion.

She was startled to see the room full of people.

Seeing that she was awake, an older woman hurriedly asked, "Grandma, are you alright? What happened?"

The deaf old woman looked confused: "Cuilan, what did you say? Speak louder, I can't hear you."

An older woman glanced helplessly at the crowd and continued, "Grandma, please stop making a scene."

The deaf old woman clearly panicked and grabbed the older woman: "Cuilan, speak louder, I can't hear you!"

Zhou Weiguo was puzzled: Had the old deaf woman failed to vomit completely, and the anger had burned her ears? He walked over to the deaf old woman and shouted in her ear, "Deaf old lady, can you hear me?"

The deaf old woman's face lit up with joy: "I heard you! I was so scared, I thought I was really deaf, but it turns out you were just speaking too softly."

Zhou Weiguo then asked loudly, "Deaf old lady, Qin Huairu said she was with Zhuzi last night. Can you testify that it's true?"
