Courtyard House: My System - Artificial Human

The following day, Chen Xueru, who was fortunate enough to be spared by Lin Weidong, was finally able to get a good night's sleep.

But I still feel somewhat powerless and tired.

Sitting in front of the counter, she rested her chin on her hand, looking at the shop and pondering.

This won't do. Her physical condition is no match for Lin Weidong. Not to mention her, even Sister Bai Ling wouldn't be able to stop him.

Moreover, she felt that Lin Weidong was getting stronger and stronger.

I used to see him taking drugs on weekends.

However, he was online the whole time last weekend.

After thinking for a long time, Chen Xueru felt that the only way to deal with the current situation was to introduce new forces to share the pressure and divert Lin Weidong's attention!

But who can we turn to?

In her mind, the faces of her classmates and friends appeared and then passed by, but Chen Xueru was not very satisfied with any of them.

Even if you find help, you can't find anyone too bad, otherwise Lin Weidong, with his picky nature, simply won't accept them.

If Lin Weidong knew what she was thinking at that moment, he would definitely reward her on the spot.

Unfortunately, Lin Weidong is staying at Bai Ling's courtyard tonight.

"You're so mean and unreasonable! You're just bullying people."

After hearing about Lin Weidong's lesson to Chen Xueru, Bai Ling gave him a good eye roll.

"Are you being unreasonable? How can you blame me for this?" Lin Weidong glared.

"Hmph! I'm a woman, so naturally I'll stand on Xue Ru's side." Bai Ling was fearless and had a perfectly valid reason.

Lin Weidong immediately picked her up.

"I see you're itching to get yourself dressed and want to experience it, right?"

"No! Don't accuse me falsely. Put me down, I have important things to say!"

Bai Ling kicked her legs repeatedly, struggling fiercely.

"What important business is it? Is it another one of your unit's operations to catch enemy spies?"

"Isn't this the important matter? Let me tell you, we're planning to formally arrest Zheng Zhaoshan. We've extracted almost all the information we can from him, and he has no other useful value. Bringing him to justice... Hmm? Why did you carry me to the yard so late at night?"

"It's alright, you can continue." Lin Weidong found a dark corner and busied himself with his work.

"I'm just feeling a bit emotional. We've been investigating the Taoyuan case for almost a year... I'm scared of Wei-dong, please... please don't stay here, okay?"

As Bai Ling was speaking, she suddenly felt a chill. When she realized what Lin Weidong was planning to do, her heart jumped into her throat, and she lost all interest in discussing the important matter.

……

"Hmm? Go on, what happened in the Taoyuan case?"

"Almost...almost...almost over."

"It's alright, you don't need to worry about losing your job. There are still many enemy agents hiding, enough for you to catch wave after wave."

"I...I can't..."

"What do you mean 'can't'? How can you back down and say you can't do it? You have to persevere!"

"Okay, I insist, I..."

Bai Ling felt a chill run down her spine and goosebumps all over her body. She had no idea what she was saying, so she simply bit Lin Weidong's shoulder and stopped talking.

Lin Weidong scoffed inwardly, "So even if you side with Chen Xueru, I still can't control you..."

……

The last weekend of April arrived as scheduled.

While Lin Weidong went to the courtyard to watch the commotion, Bai Ling hurriedly held her first family meeting in courtyard number 13.

"I propose that we must strictly curb Comrade Lin Weidong's misbehavior at any time and in any place. Xueru, you must also strictly enforce this; we cannot tolerate or indulge him!"

Chen Xueru blushed and lowered her head, then nodded seriously under the solemn gazes of Bai Ling and Tian Zao.

"I will definitely do it!"

"Xue Ru, you better remember what you're saying. Wei Dong's bad habits are all because you've spoiled him lately. If you hold him back, Bai Ling and I will never help you again! You'll have to suffer the consequences all by yourself."

After Tian Zao finished speaking, Chen Xueru's face flushed again.

She has deeply experienced what it means to lift a stone only to drop it on your own foot; not only that, but she has also hurt Bai Ling and Tian Zao.

She quickly offered her suggestions to atone for her crime.

"Sister Bai Ling, Zao'er, we're at a disadvantage right now, mainly because we lack manpower! We can't wear down our leader... we can't wear down Comrade Lin Weidong's boundless energy. If the other sisters could help, we could definitely subdue Lin Weidong!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ling looked at her as if she were a fool. Tian Zao's expression also became somewhat strained. She then covered her face and sighed in disappointment.

"Oh! Xue Ru..."

Tian Zao was speechless. She shouldn't have trusted Chen Xueru. What good ideas could she possibly have? Not aiding and abetting evil was already a contribution.

"I...my idea won't work? What should we do then?"

"What I mean is, don't cling to him too much at home. It's best to have your own serious things to do. For example, Zao'er needs to study, and I can bring some work home to do. Xue Ru, you... you can research clothing fabrics! Haven't you noticed? As long as we have something to do, he won't bother us."

Bai Ling concluded after speaking.

"After a while, his feelings for me will fade. You have no idea how outrageous he is now. He carried me to the yard... Anyway, let's work together to correct his bad habits as soon as possible."

"Okay! Let's work together!"

Tian Zao puffed out her cheeks in agreement, but Chen Xueru seemed to have discovered a new continent and stood up from her chair in surprise.

"Ah!? Sister Bai Ling, you guys did it in the yard? My goodness! Was that... was it fun?"

"Chen Xueru! Can't you be serious for once!"

Bai Ling never expected that a mere slip of the tongue would cause this girl to revert to her true nature, leaving her both angry and helpless.

Chen Xueru obediently sat back down and muttered to herself.

"I think your method, Sister Bailing, is only treating the symptoms, not the root cause. If we don't play with him, what if he can't help but find other women? In the end, he'll still have more girlfriends, just like I said. It's better if we help him find some...someone he likes."

"Xue Ru has a point! He's totally capable of doing something like that! That's exactly what Xue Ru is like. Neither of us knew beforehand, and who knows... in a couple of days... we'll have another sister. Rather than that, we might as well turn the tables and take the initiative!"

Tian Zao clenched his fist, his face beaming with excitement.

The logic is sound, and there are facts to support it, but in the end, isn't it still aiding and abetting evil?

The first family meeting ended in disappointment, and Bai Ling waved her hand wearily.

"Fine... you two decide."

The two people who had been whispering together turned their heads at the same time to watch her leave.

"Sister Bai Ling, where are you going? Don't be angry, let's talk it over again."

"I'm not angry, I'm going to take a nap... I think it's better to rely on myself than others. Once I'm well-rested, I'll deal with him tonight!"

Bai Ling's experiences endowed her with a resilient character, but Chen Xueru and Tian Zao did not possess this quality.

After exchanging signals, the two exchanged their recent feelings and confirmed that Lin Weidong was getting stronger every day.

The decision was made to seek external assistance to expand and strengthen the sisterhood.

Meanwhile, Lin Weidong was still joining in the fun at the courtyard.
