All the heavens begin with the love in the courtyard.

"Brother Wu, you're not going to make up with Sister Su Meng, are you?"

Han Chunming completely ignored the little girl, stood up, wiped his hands, turned and walked outside, leaving Meng Xiaoxing stomping her feet in frustration.

Once outside, they saw Su Meng standing at the door, looking pretty. Han Chunming glanced at Su Meng, who was wearing a light yellow dress, a few more times.

This girl looks a bit different from her appearance in the TV series. In reality, she's much prettier, but unfortunately, her personality is too difficult to deal with. She's still not as cute as my Xiao Qiao.

As Han Chunming was lost in thought, Su Meng turned around, glared at him, and said angrily.

"Han Chunming, can you stop giving up on yourself? Why are you always so unambitious, just loafing around all day, never doing anything productive?"

Han Chunming was a bit confused. What was going on here?

When did I give up on myself?

Han Chunming coughed lightly twice and asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Su Meng, what's going on? When did I give up on myself?"

Su Meng looked at Han Chunming with a disappointed expression, stomped her foot angrily, and yelled at him.

"Why did you steal bread from the food factory? Now you've been fired, what are you going to do? Can't you just work properly? And why did you give the bicycle to Meng Xiaoxing?"

Han Chunming felt a headache coming on. Women are such a hassle. What business is it of hers what I do with my future? He then said somewhat impatiently.

"Su Meng, it's my freedom to give the bicycle to whomever I want. Also, don't listen to Cheng Jianjun's nonsense anymore. He's a scoundrel who only does dirty tricks behind people's backs. My job was introduced to me by his father, so I'm just returning it to him now. You should have less contact with him in the future!"

Su Meng looked at Han Chunming with some disappointment. In her memory, Han Chunming had always spoken to her in a flattering tone and had never given such an impatient reply.

The Han Chunming of the past would never gossip behind someone's back, but the current Han Chunming is calling Cheng Jianjun a scumbag to her face, which is quite a shock to Su Meng's opinion of Han Chunming.

When Han Chunming realized that Su Meng had come to him about this matter, he didn't want to stay any longer and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Su Meng's expression worsened, and she immediately shouted.

"Han Chunming, I think you're hopeless! I hate you now, I hate your arrogance, Han Chunming, you're a bastard, a big bastard!"

Han Chunming thought this girl was really being difficult, so he didn't want to pay any attention to her and turned back into the courtyard.

Seeing Han Chunming's attitude towards her, Su Meng felt a surge of grievance and tears streamed down her face.

The unusual situation immediately caught the attention of the neighbors passing by, and many of the older women started gossiping. Judging from the situation, Su Meng would be facing another interrogation tonight!

At that moment, Cheng Jianjun was riding his bicycle when he saw Su Meng at the entrance of the courtyard house from afar. Seeing her crying sadly, he felt a pang of anxiety and quickly sped up his ride to Su Meng.

Cheng Jianjun stopped his bicycle and quickly got off to ask.

"Su Meng, what's wrong? What happened? Who bullied you?"

Su Meng could only cry. At this moment, she was filled with grievances and tears. She thought of Han Chunming's attitude just now, and then she thought of Han Chunming's attitude towards her over the past ten years.

At this moment, she already knew that Han Chunming had completely given up on being with her and was no longer even bothering to feign affection.

Cheng Jianjun quickly guessed that it was that bastard Han Chunming, and he was both happy and anxious.

The good news is that Han Chunming has now completely offended Su Meng, and their relationship has deteriorated further, which increases his chances by another ten percent.

He was anxious because he saw Su Meng crying with tears streaming down her face, but he couldn't think of a way to comfort her. At that moment, he felt an impulse welling up in his heart and shouted at Su Meng.

"Su Meng, don't cry, don't cry. I'm going to teach that bastard Han Chunming a lesson right now. Han Chunming is a scoundrel. How dare he bully you? I'm going to beat him up!"

Seeing Su Meng so heartbroken, Cheng Jianjun felt an indescribable impulse welling up inside him. After all, he was still young, and acting impulsively for love was a man's instinct. At this moment, Cheng Jianjun only wanted Su Meng to witness the sacrifices he had made for her.

Of course, Cheng Jianjun, a scheming man, suddenly had another idea in his mind at this moment: he had to make a scene and let everyone in the compound know that he, Cheng Jianjun, was competing with Han Chunming for Su Meng.

Once a commotion is made, Su Meng's reputation will be tied to his own, and when people talk about Su Meng, they will compare him to Han Chunming.

Given her family's circumstances and her own excellence, how was she not better than Han Chunming? In the long run, the people in the compound would intentionally or unintentionally persuade Su Meng and her family to accept her.

Thinking of this, Cheng Jianjun put down his bicycle, strode into the courtyard, and shouted as he did so.

"Han Chunming, you bastard, I'll tear you apart! How dare you bully Su Meng! Get out here!"

Cheng Jianjun's loud shout startled Su Meng, who was still crying. She tried to stop him, but he had already entered the courtyard. Su Meng hurriedly chased after him, crying.

Cheng Jianjun's loud voice attracted the attention of everyone in the compound, young and old, as well as the neighbors on the surrounding streets.

All the people saw was Su Meng chasing after Cheng Jianjun, while Cheng Jianjun was shouting that Han Chunming was bullying Su Meng.

Everyone immediately began to imagine the cause and effect of the matter, their gossip-loving spirits burning brightly, and their eyes followed the two into the courtyard.

As soon as Cheng Jianjun entered the courtyard, he saw Han Chunming repairing a bicycle. He was making a lot of noise, and Han Chunming and Meng Xiaoxing had already heard him. Meng Xiaoxing looked up, still a little confused, but Han Chunming didn't even look up, his expression turning cold.

Upon hearing Cheng Jianjun's loud voice, Han Chunming immediately guessed what the guy's purpose was. Sure enough, when Cheng Jianjun approached him, all the old and young men in the courtyard who were still at home heard the noise and looked over.

Seeing that Han Chunming didn't even raise his head, Cheng Jianjun became angry and kicked over the bicycle that Han Chunming had stood up, scattering parts all over the ground.

Seeing this, Han Chunming wasn't angry yet, but Meng Xiaoxing was furious. She had finally managed to get Brother Wu to fix her bicycle, and Cheng Jianjun dared to kick it and break it? Had he lost his mind?

Meng Xiaoxing's anger flared up instantly. Her loud voice was no less than Cheng Jianjun's. She angrily stepped forward, pointed at Cheng Jianjun's nose, and started cursing.

"Cheng Jianjun, are you delirious? You're like a lapdog wearing a bell, what kind of beast are you pretending to be? Who do you think you are, barking and yelling like that!"

Meng Xiaoxing, this country girl, has such a nasty way of cursing. Cheng Jianjun's head was buzzing from Meng Xiaoxing's voice, and he couldn't come to his senses for a while.

At this moment, even more people gathered around, and Su Meng followed along with tears in her eyes. Fortunately, Su Meng's grandmother was taking a walk outside at the time. If she had seen this scene, she would probably have been so angry that her heart would have jumped out of her chest.

When Cheng Jianjun was scolded by Meng Xiaoxing, he got anxious and raised his hand to slap her. He raised his hand, but halfway through, he realized that it was not good and tried to pull it back. However, Han Chunming did not give him the chance.

Han Chunming stood up, grabbed Cheng Jianjun's hand, and twisted it hard. Cheng Jianjun immediately cried out in pain. This cry startled Su Meng, who quickly stepped forward and shouted at Han Chunming.

"Han Chunming, let him go!"

Han Chunming gave Su Meng a cold look, then snorted and shoved Cheng Jianjun hard, making him stumble back several steps before regaining his footing.

Cheng Jianjun clutched his hand, wincing in pain, his fear and hatred for Han Chunming growing ever stronger.

Han Chunming glanced around and saw that they were all neighbors, so he didn't want to make a big fuss. He then looked at Su Meng and Cheng Jianjun, squatted down, ignored them, picked up the bicycle, and began to repair it.

Cheng Jianjun, who was standing to the side, didn't dare to say anything more. He covered his hand and pretended to be seriously injured so that Su Meng would care about him.

Seeing Cheng Jianjun's state and noticing the strange looks from the people around her, Su Meng was immediately thrown into turmoil. Forgetting about comforting Cheng Jianjun, she ran crying towards the backyard.

Cheng Jianjun, standing behind, gave a barely perceptible smile, but it quickly turned into a pained expression as he clutched his hand and glared at Han Chunming with hatred.

Han Chunming didn't want to say anything more at this moment. This kind of childish scheming was really boring!

Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Cheng Jianjun deliberately put on a pained expression, staggering and clutching his hand, groaning incessantly.

He wanted everyone around him to see his slightly reddened palms, and he even deliberately made his palms look twisted to appear that he was badly injured.

After Cheng Jianjun finished his performance, he returned to his room to begin the next act.

Han Chunming sped up and started repairing the bicycle; he was sure he'd have to prepare a more substantial dish later.

Just as Cheng Jianjun had guessed, before dinner was even served, the news of his and Han Chunming's rivalry over Su Meng had spread throughout the entire compound, and even among the surrounding neighbors.

Soon, Cheng Jianjun, Han Chunming, and Su Meng's families began a joint trial in the house.

Cheng's parents looked serious. Cheng Qinghua looked at his son's right hand, which was wrapped in bandages, and slammed his hand on the table in anger. Then he stood up and shouted.

"The Han family is going too far! Jianjun, come with me to the police station tomorrow. I'm going to make the Han family pay the price. If that little brat Han Chunming doesn't spend a few years in jail, I'll change my surname to his!"

When Han Chunming heard his father's words, he was immediately tempted, but he quickly gave up the idea. The main reason was that he didn't have any injuries on his hands at all; it was all an act!

If I go to the police station tomorrow and they check and find out I'm not injured, then I'm doomed.

Cheng Jianjun sighed and said quickly.

"Dad, forget it. He'll be fine after some rest. If you do this, what will the neighbors think of the Cheng family?"

Cheng's mother, who was standing nearby, thought her son's words made sense. She worked at the neighborhood office and valued harmony. They were all neighbors in the same courtyard and had lived together for decades.

It's inevitable for young people to be hot-blooded, especially since she had heard about what happened. It was just a fight over a girl; making a big fuss would be embarrassing for her!

Hearing his son's words, Cheng Qinghua's anger subsided somewhat, but thinking about how Han Chunming, that brat, had reported him recently, which had severely damaged his work, the combination of old and new grudges still made Cheng Qinghua somewhat indignant.

As Cheng Jianjun began working, his cunning gradually increased. Seeing that his father was still angry, he quickly came up with an idea and spoke up.

"Dad, I heard that Han Chunming resigned on his own, not because the factory fired him. Do you think it's possible to have the food factory discipline Han Chunming?"

"Just add the bread-stealing incident to his resume, and his file will have a theft record. What company would want to hire him then?"

Cheng Jianjun's idea was truly ruthless. In this day and age, jobs are hard to find. If Han Chunming has such a theft record in his personnel file, then no company will dare to hire him in the future.

When Cheng Qinghua heard his son's idea, his eyes lit up, and he immediately began to think about it, feeling that it was something that could be done.

This isn't just baseless slander; it's a fact that Han Chunming stole bread. Once this theft record is established, Han Chunming is destined to become an unemployed vagrant!

When Cheng Jianjun saw that his father had agreed, he was overjoyed, which blocked Han Chunming's job and ruined his future.

The injury on his hand makes him a natural victim. If he complains to everyone in the compound and spreads rumors, Han Chunming's reputation will be completely ruined!

This way, Han Chunming is completely finished. He's nothing now. What will he use to compete with me for Su Meng in the future?

The Cheng family was shrouded in conspiracy, while the Su Meng family remained silent.

Su Meng's parents are both teachers, and they were originally very open-minded about their daughter dating. However, what happened today has had a really bad impact.

At first, the three of them, along with Grandma Su Meng, took turns giving her educational lessons. But soon, Su Meng burst into tears. Upon seeing this, everyone's attitude changed immediately. This was their only daughter, the apple of their eye.

Suddenly, the room turned from an educational session into a comforting one. After all this commotion, everyone fell silent, leaving only Su Meng still sobbing softly.

Su Meng's parents looked worried and remained silent as they stared at their daughter.

Grandma Su Meng looked at her haggard granddaughter and thought to herself that starting tomorrow, she would have to pick her granddaughter up and drop her off at get off work to completely shut down the claws of those two bastards, Cheng Jianjun and Han Chunming!

The Su family didn't think highly of Cheng Jianjun and Han Chunming. Su Meng was their precious darling, and if they were to find someone, they wouldn't choose someone from their own neighborhood.

At this moment, in Han Chunming's home, his mother, several older brothers and sisters, and his third aunt were all staring at Han Chunming.

Only Meng Xiaoxing kept glancing cautiously at Han Chunming and then at the others. She now knew that things had gotten out of hand.

The whole courtyard was just discussing this matter, and it was because my fifth brother stood up for me that he beat up Cheng Jianjun.

Han Chunming waved his hand helplessly and continued speaking.

"Mom, that's really how it is. There's nothing between Su Meng and me. Su Meng called me out to talk, but we didn't even talk for a minute before I came back. Xiao Xing can testify to that!"

Meng Xiaoxing nodded quickly!

Everyone still looked at Han Chunming with stern faces.

Han Chunming could only say helplessly.

"Mom, Su Meng and I did have feelings for each other before, but nothing really happened between us. I quickly found a girlfriend, so this matter really has nothing to do with me. Also, I didn't really hurt Cheng Jianjun; his injury was all fake!"

Han Erjie, standing to the side, spoke to Han Chunming in an unfriendly tone.
