Siheyuan: Shazhu's Life Simulator

"Really? Is it serious?" the man asked casually, but his eyes did not linger on Yu Li for too long.

Just such a simple greeting, Yu Li's heart instantly turned cold. This man who had slept with her for many years was now so indifferent to her, even worse than a stranger.

However, fate is always full of coincidences. Just a few days later, He Yuzhu unexpectedly ran into Yu Haitang on the street.

"Brother Zhuzi!" Yu Haitang shouted in surprise.

He Yuzhu looked over when he heard the voice, a smile appeared on his face: "Oh, it turns out to be Miss Haitang."

"Brother Zhuzi, I've asked about you everywhere! I heard that you've been doing very well recently, I really admire you!" Yu Haitang looked at He Yuzhu with admiration on her face.

He Yuzhu smiled modestly: "Haha, it's just a small achievement, not worth mentioning."

"Oh, Brother Zhuzi, you are too modest! In my eyes, you have always been so amazing!" Yu Haitang made no secret of her admiration for He Yuzhu.

At this time, He Yuzhu invited enthusiastically: "Since we meet by chance, let's have a meal together."

"Okay, then I won't be polite!" Yu Haitang agreed happily.

The two came to a restaurant, ordered a table full of sumptuous dishes, and chatted while eating. The atmosphere was very harmonious.

After eating and drinking, Yu Haitang suggested that they go out for a walk to digest the food, and He Yuzhu agreed after thinking about it. They walked into a nearby park, and He Yuzhu waved his hand to signal the bodyguards behind him not to follow, and then walked side by side with Yu Haitang.

As they were walking, He Yuzhu suddenly asked, "Sister Haitang, don't you have to rush home to cook for your husband and children?"

Yu Haitang was slightly stunned, then smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Zhuzi, I'm divorced."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but be a little surprised: "I'm so sorry, Sister Haitang, I didn't know about this in advance."

"It's okay." Yu Haitang waved her hand and said with a relaxed look, as if she didn't care about the matter at all. "My ex-husband used to work in our factory." She said it lightly, as if she was talking about an unrelated stranger.

Then, Yu Haitang frowned slightly, recalling the unhappy marriage experience, with a hint of helplessness in her tone: "Well, to be honest, we have nothing in common at all. When we were together, it was like we were talking at cross purposes, and that feeling was so uncomfortable. So, in the end it was better to just get a divorce." After saying that, she sighed softly.

Hearing this, He Yuzhu at the side couldn't help but ask curiously: "What happened next? Why haven't you found a suitable partner?"

Yu Haitang smiled bitterly, shook his head and replied, "Oh, it's not that I don't want to find someone, but I just haven't met anyone I like."

After hearing this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but joked: "Oh, you really have a high standard! I'm afraid ordinary people can't catch your eye."

Yu Haitang glared at him coquettishly and retorted, "No way! I just want to find someone who really understands me."

At this time, He Yuzhu suddenly looked at Yu Haitang seriously and said seriously: "Actually, if I didn't have a wife now, I might pursue you."

Yu Haitang was stunned at first, then a hint of surprise appeared on her face, but she quickly regained her composure and asked softly, "Really?"

He Yuzhu nodded and answered affirmatively: "Of course it's true, it's a pity that we are not destined to be together!"

When Yu Haitang heard this, she couldn't help but feel a sense of loss. She lowered her head silently, her eyes somewhat dim.

After a while, she seemed to muster up her courage, raised her head, and glanced hesitantly at the married man in front of her - He Yuzhu.

However, the moment their eyes met, her heart suddenly trembled, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

At this moment, Yu Haitang was deeply trapped in inner struggle and pain. She knew that this feeling should not exist, but her heart was involuntarily attracted to He Yuzhu, sinking deeper and deeper, unable to extricate herself.

There was a tangled light in her eyes, as if she was torn between two completely different worlds, one side was the constraints of moral ethics, and the other side was the true emotional impulse in her heart.

She tried to turn her head away, avoiding He Yuzhu's burning gaze, trying to break free from this inappropriate feeling, but she found that she was powerless to resist...

The woman stared at the man, her face showing an expression of love and pain. Her eyes showed deep attachment, yet also revealed a heart-wrenching sadness and helplessness.

She sighed silently. She knew that this relationship was against moral ethics, but she still couldn't resist the urge to throw herself into the fire.

She was willing to give up everything just to be with him.

The thoughts between them were like flowers blooming quietly, weak but firm. The man's voice trembled into the woman's ears, with a deep and low magnetism. His words revealed his deep attachment to her, but also with a hint of hesitation and sorrow.

The woman's heart slowly shed tears at this moment, mournful and sad, as if it was the sobbing of the soul. Their movements were small but powerful. The man caressed the smooth ring lightly and his fingers trembled a little, which seemed to hint at his inner entanglement.

The woman kept wiping away her tears with the back of her hand, as if she wanted to wipe away her sadness, but she couldn't. All this seemed like a silent communication.

They sat facing each other, understanding each other tacitly, and in this silent moment, pain and endurance were intertwined.

They wandered in this forbidden love, desperate to be together, ignoring the pressure and obstruction from the outside world.

However, they knew that this love that went against common sense was destined to be a torment. At that moment, their expressions became complicated and deep, and the mutual understanding and commitment revealed in their eyes were like exploring the deepest soul sustenance in each other's hearts.

They took a deep breath and sighed in unison. It was a sigh of heartbreak and helplessness about the future. They knew that this relationship would bring countless difficulties and pain, but they still couldn't help but want to abandon everything and pursue the truth in their hearts.

At this moment, they decided to let go of everything and face this forbidden love bravely.

Their voices, with determination and firmness, penetrated the silence of the night sky, like a moving call. They will prove with their actions that even if they are like moths to a flame, they will continue to love without hesitation.

Because the weather was warm, the two people in the grove cheered and enjoyed themselves to their heart's content.

He Yuzhu sighed that Yu Haitang was truly a different person in this era.

It's crazy.

"Can I move to your house?" Yu Haitang asked expectantly.

"No." The man answered decisively without any hesitation.

Yu Haitang looked puzzled and asked, "Why?" The man took a deep breath and said slowly, "Because I don't want to delay you. You are still so young and in your prime, but I am ten years older than you! With your conditions, you can definitely find someone better and more suitable."

Yu Haitang widened her eyes and said in disbelief: "But is the age gap really that important?"

The man shook his head slightly and continued to explain: "It's not just a matter of age. To tell you the truth, it's impossible for me to get a divorce. Besides, my family is large, and if we stay together, it will cause a lot of trouble."

Yu Haitang couldn't help but exclaimed: "Then... does your wife mind?"

"Well, they don't mind." The man nodded calmly.

Hearing this answer, Yu Haitang was completely stunned, and didn't know what to say for a moment. After a long while, she came back to her senses and asked with a trembling voice: "If that's the case, then why did you provoke me in the first place?"

The man lowered his head, and after a moment of silence, he looked up at Yu Haitang and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. But please believe me, I really couldn't help myself at the time. But now that I have calmed down and thought about it, in order to maintain the stability of my family and protect my career, I absolutely cannot divorce and remarry, let alone have children. So, I hope you can understand my difficulties and don't blame me for being cruel."

After saying this, the man stared at Yu Haitang quietly, and saw a hint of disappointment and helplessness gradually revealed between her brows.

Yu Haitang stared at the man who had once made her heart beat fast, trying to find even a trace of hesitation or room for maneuver in his eyes. However, to her despair, the man's eyes were as clear and cold as a pool of stagnant water, without any ripples, like a towering and indestructible mountain that she could not cross no matter how hard she tried to climb.

He frowned slightly, trying to gently brush away this unattainable dream, but she held on to it tightly.

Her eyes were blurry, as if she had walked into a blurry fog, far away from the destination of reason. Her voice was trembling and choking: "You are doing this for my own good? Am I not worthy of your love? Are we sacrificing our relationship like this?"

The man sighed deeply, and his words came out slowly and firmly: "There is no future between me and you. We are destined to be two parallel lines that can never intersect. I will not leave my family, nor will I put you in an unfortunate situation."

The woman lowered her head silently, tears flowing quietly, like lost morning dew sliding across her cheeks.

The man gently held her shoulders, his voice low and firm: "You will find a better man, someone who can give you complete happiness. Please believe that such a man will appear in your life."

The woman's trembling lips curled up slightly with a weak smile: "Really? Then can you guarantee that this man will be better than you?"

The man's Adam's apple rolled, and his voice was slightly hoarse: "I can't promise, but I am willing to bless you. No matter what, I just hope you can live a happy life."

His words echoed in the woman's ears, as painful as tinnitus, but impossible to erase.

The man turned and left, leaving the woman standing there alone. The cold wind blew on her body, and she cried silently. The pain in her body and mind turned into a sigh and was buried deep in her heart.

He Yuzhu is a scumbag, but he has to do this.

Just play with it, don't take it seriously.

You can take my money, but you can't try to take over my position.

a few days later.

He Yuzhu went to find Yu Li openly.

When Yu Li raised her eyes and saw him, her heart instantly became a tangled mess.

She stuttered and asked, "Why...why are you here?"

He Yuzhu smiled slightly and responded softly: "I came to see if your foot is healed."

Yu Li blushed slightly, lowered her head and replied, "It's much better now."

Then he quickly added, "Thank you."

At this time, there was a noise from inside the house. It turned out that Yan Bugui heard the noise outside and came out. He looked at the two people in front of him with a puzzled look on his face and said, "Zhu Zi, why did you come here suddenly?"

He Yuzhu laughed and explained, "Uncle, have you forgotten? I told you before that I would find a job for your wife."

Yan Bugui quickly waved his hands and responded: "Oh, oh, oh, I haven't forgotten."

Then he turned around and shouted to Yu Li, "Yu Li, hurry up and pour a glass of water for Zhuge!"

He Yuzhu waved his hands and said with a smile, "Forget it, forget it. I'm not thirsty."

After that, he looked at Yu Li and continued, "Yu Li, let's go. I'll take you over to see the situation first."

Yu Li nodded and said, "Okay." Just like that, Yu Li followed He Yuzhu out the door.

After He Yuzhu started the car, he drove Yu Li all the way and soon arrived at a slightly desolate place in the suburbs.

Yu Li couldn't help but ask curiously, "Didn't you say you were looking for a job? Why are you here?"

He Yuzhu smiled mysteriously, and then told Yu Li seriously: "I plan to open an office in our city. You will be the manager at that time, responsible for managing a few people who do cleaning and cooking."

Yu Li's eyes widened in surprise after hearing this, and she asked in disbelief, "I'm the manager?"

Yu Li didn't realize that she could still be a manager.

I have no culture, no education, no good looks, and I don't stand out among the crowd. How could such a good thing happen to me?

He Yuzhu nodded affirmatively and continued, "Yes, don't you want to do it?" Yu Li hesitated for a moment and muttered softly, "But this is only temporary..."

He Yuzhu patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, when the policy allows business in the future, I will immediately invest in you to open your own store."

Yu Li still felt it was not real, and asked doubtfully: "Is it true? How is this possible..."

He Yuzhu answered confidently: "I have received reliable information. We will be able to resume business soon!"

After hearing this, Yu Li felt a glimmer of hope, but still asked uncertainly, "What should I do now?" (End of this chapter)
