Courtyard House: In this life, I have a new home!

41

He feigned an upright and dignified demeanor, waved his hand dismissively, and said:

"Alright, alright, why are you telling me all this useless stuff?"

"Who do you think I am? I'm someone who doesn't tolerate any nonsense. Arresting you is doing the public good!"

"Today I will act on behalf of Heaven, drag you out, and let everyone see your ugly faces!"

When he got excited, Liu Haizhong really felt like he was glowing with golden light, like a messenger of justice.

He tilted his chin up and widened his eyes, trying his best to project an imposing presence.

But when his round belly sticks out, he doesn't look imposing at all; instead, he looks particularly comical.

Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu and Xu Damao were completely dumbfounded.

The two of them collapsed to the ground like punctured balloons, their hearts sinking into despair.

Liu Haizhong sneered and waved his hand:

"Tie up Sha Zhu and Xu Damao and take them away!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a group of people rushed up.

In no time, they tied Sha Zhu and Xu Damao up tightly and dragged them away like livestock.

The movements were so fast that Sha Zhu and Xu Damao didn't even have time to react.

When they came to their senses, the ropes were already tightly binding them.

Their eyes widened and their mouths gaped open.

I was both surprised and frightened.

At this point, Sha Zhu and Xu Damao realized that things couldn't be resolved peacefully today.

Thinking you can get away with groveling is pure fantasy.

If they don't find a way to save themselves, they're both doomed.

They twisted and turned desperately, shouting at the top of their lungs:

"Let go! What do you think you're doing?!"

"What law have we broken that you're treating me like this?"

"So what if he's Second Uncle? He can just kidnap people like that?!"

"Do you have no regard for the law? This is outrageous!"

"Let me go! Did you hear me? Let me go!"

At this point, they didn't care about saving face anymore and started cursing.

Sha Zhu and Xu Damao felt increasingly frustrated.

They didn't do anything illegal or disorderly.

Why were they tied up without even asking what happened?

It's just two grown men sleeping together, isn't it?

They really didn't mean it.

Nobody wants to end up in this situation, lying in bed without even knowing what happened.

Ultimately, they are victims too!

Thinking of this, Sha Zhu and Xu Damao felt as bitter as if they had swallowed a bitter pill, and were too bitter to speak.

Second Uncle's gang barged in before dawn, pulled off the blankets, and dragged people out.

Is there no law left?

It’s so deceiving!

The two of them must get justice and an explanation!

Sha Zhu and Xu Damao stared wide-eyed at their second uncle, their faces full of resentment and anger, as if their ancestors had been wronged eight generations ago.

Upon hearing this, the group of people looked at each other and stopped what they were doing.

All eyes were on the leader, Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong took a step forward and gave Sha Zhu and Xu Damao a cold smile.

"You still think you're being wronged? You think we're making trouble for no reason?"

"Shazhu, Xu Damao, what kind of mess did you two make the night before last? Do I need to repeat myself?!"

These words were both forceful and resounding.

This immediately stunned the two of them.

His face, which had been full of anger and grievance just moments before, instantly crumbled.

Instead, he looked panicked and at a loss.

He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.

They wanted to defend themselves, but when the words reached their lips, they found they couldn't say them at all.

Because they actually did it.

I still can't figure out how things turned out that way.

How did Sha Zhu and Xu Damao, two grown men, end up in the same bed?

The two stared wide-eyed, mouths agape, completely dumbfounded.

"Let us explain, this..."

"that……"

"We can't say for sure either..."

Liu Haizhong sneered and waved his hand.

"Can't explain it? Then take it with you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people grabbed Sha Zhu and Xu Damao and tried to drag them out.

The two were so frightened they nearly jumped out of their skin.

No way! They'd rather die than go to the disciplinary department!

At that moment, only one thought remained in my mind—

Saving your life is the most important thing!

Sha Zhu and Xu Damao screamed in terror.

"No, no, no! Please don't take us away! We don't want to go to the disciplinary department!"

"It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! We didn't do it on purpose! We don't even know what happened!"

"It's really not our fault! Please, spare our lives! Spare us!"

The two begged for mercy, wailing and howling.

But a group of people completely ignored them.

You did it, that's all. Why say it wasn't intentional?

Is someone forcing these two grown men to get together?

Bullshit!

It's obviously intentional!

Two grown men having sex, isn't that disgusting?

When Sha Zhu and Xu Damao saw this, they realized that Second Uncle and his gang were completely ignoring what they were saying.

Let alone letting them off the hook.

The two were completely disheartened. Seeing that they couldn't rely on anyone, they quickly turned their attention to their neighbors in the Hongxing Courtyard.

Xu Damao was dragged towards the courtyard gate, his neck almost twisted into a pretzel.

He panicked and yelled at the top of his lungs, "Help! Uncles and aunts, I, Xu Damao, grew up right under your noses!"

"You can't just stand by and watch me suffer! Please save me!"

"If anyone lends me a hand, I, Xu Damao, will remember them for the rest of my life and will definitely repay them in the future!"

The sound was as shrill as a cat meowing in the middle of the night.

It's a pity that everyone in the Hongxing Courtyard acted as if nothing had happened.

Not only did none of them lend a hand, but they also watched with excitement as Xu Damao was dragged away.

Are you kidding me? Let them save Xu Damao?

Why should I? They're not even family.

Besides, the people in this courtyard love to watch the excitement and enjoy seeing others suffer.

They just don't want to help.

Look at Xu Damao's panicked look when he was dragged away, it's quite amusing.

This is hilarious!

They were secretly delighted.

The three women were eating sunflower seeds and couldn't stop smiling.

Xu Damao is no good either; he's ripped off the neighbors quite a bit in the past.

What was Xu Damao doing when someone in the courtyard suffered a misfortune?

They were just sitting there with their legs crossed, watching the fun and laughing so hard they were doubled over.

Have you ever seen him help anyone?

No!

If that's the case, why should anyone help Xu Damao?

Don't even think about it!

An eye for an eye, and neither of us owes the other anything.

"Giggle giggle!"

The three women threw the sunflower seed shells on the ground, laughing so hard they slapped their thighs: "Look at Xu Damao's pathetic state, it's hilarious!"

Xu Damao looked at the indifferent faces around him and listened to the harsh laughter.

At that moment, he was completely speechless.

He was like a deflated balloon, head drooping, completely devoid of energy.

Sha Zhu was also frightened by the neighbors' attitude.

He knew that relying on others was hopeless.

They could only place their last hope on Uncle Yi Zhonghai.

Although he and Yi Zhonghai had a falling out before.

But that's all in the past.

Sha Zhu still held onto a sliver of hope.

We've lived in the same courtyard for so many years, we must have some kind of relationship, right?

Yi Zhonghai wouldn't really try to kill him.

He stared intently at Yi Zhonghai, shouting at the top of his lungs:

"Grandpa! You have to lend me a hand! I, Shazhu, am counting on you to take care of me in my old age and see me off in my final days!"

"We used to be so close, how could you turn your back on me over such a small thing?"

"You saved me today, I promise I'll take good care of you from now on!"

Sha Zhu's voice was urgent and panicked, filled with hope.

Hoping that Yi Zhonghai will remember their past relationship and lend him a hand.

And what happened? When Yi Zhonghai heard Sha Zhu call him, he curled his lip and looked disgusted.

Without saying a word, he turned and left.

They didn't even give Sha Zhu a second glance.

He cursed inwardly: "That idiot Zhu is such a brainless idiot."

This time, Second Uncle was clearly going to risk his life to get credit for Sha Zhu and Xu Damao.

Is this a force that Yi Zhonghai can stop?

Even if we could stop him, we'd have to skin him alive.

Sha Zhu wasn't asking for help; he was clearly trying to drag him to his death!

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that his teeth itched.

Sha Zhu just can't stand to see him doing well and wants to push him into a fire pit.

Besides, he and Sha Zhu have nothing to do with each other anymore.

All talk of feelings and relationships is meaningless.

Retirement? Foolish Zhu? That's all nonsense.

Now, in Yi Zhonghai's heart, apart from Jia Zhangshi in his dream, he looks down on everything else.

As soon as he turned to leave, his eyes darted around, searching the entire place for Jia Zhangshi's figure.

Found it, and immediately fawned over it like a dog, his face beaming with smiles:

"Sister Zhang..."

When Jia Zhangshi turned around and saw that it was Yi Zhonghai, her face immediately fell.

He only uttered one word:

"roll!"

Yi Zhonghai shamelessly approached, only to be sprayed with spittle in his face.

Even if he's a sycophant now, he still has his pride.

He awkwardly touched his nose, feeling embarrassed.

Feeling embarrassed, he didn't dare glance to the side, afraid of seeing the mocking looks on others' faces.

"Ahem!"

He coughed twice, forcing himself to suppress the embarrassment he had just felt.

Then lick it.

To be a simp, you have to be thick-skinned and not easily back down.

"Sister Zhang~"

Yi Zhonghai called out in a sticky, gooey tone.

Annoyed by his persistent pestering, Jia Zhangshi simply closed her eyes and refused to look at him.

That old man is such a nuisance!

Meanwhile, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi were still cuddling together.

Sha Zhu's heart had turned to ice.

Yi Zhonghai completely ignored him, not even bothering to give him a second glance.

This old man is so ruthless!

Sha Zhu watched helplessly as Yi Zhonghai turned and walked away, his figure quickly dispersed as he was pushed aside.

He stood there, stunned, his eyes wide open.

All that passion vanished in an instant.

"Yi Zhonghai, you—"

Sha Zhu gritted his teeth and roared, his whole body trembling like a leaf.

By now, he had finally seen through Yi Zhonghai's true colors.

Do you want him to take care of the Yi family in their old age and see them off in their final days?

No way.

Give up on that idea.

It's impossible now!

Sha Zhu's eyes turned red with hatred.

Xu Damao hung his head, looking like a wilted eggplant.

The two men were forcibly dragged out of the gate of the Hongxing Courtyard by the Second Uncle and a group of people.

The entire courtyard was filled with their unwilling howls.

"Let go! Let go of me! What right do you have to treat us like this!"

"I already said it was all a misunderstanding! You can't do this!"
