Courtyard House: Inheriting the Restaurant, the Jia Family Wants to Get It for Free

Before they could even reach Cheng Ling'er and the others, Sha Zhu rushed up to them.

"Silly Zhu, we didn't have anything..."

Before Liu Guangtian could finish speaking, Sha Zhu slapped each of them across the face, making them see stars.

Then Sha Zhu picked them both up and threw them onto Liu Haizhong.

In this way, the three members of the Liu family, father and sons, formed a human pyramid in an extremely awkward and comical manner.

The courtyard was initially deathly silent.

Immediately afterwards, a deafening burst of laughter erupted.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"This is hilarious! It's like a little arhat suppressing a big arhat!"

"Liu Haizhong has truly lost everything—his wife and his army, no, he's lost his son and his reputation!"

Xu Damao laughed until tears streamed down his face, clutching his stomach, almost fainting.

"Retribution! This is retribution! You deserved to harm children!"

At this moment, the older women nearby started talking.

Even the usually serious Yan Bugui couldn't help but smile, push up his glasses, and think to himself: This silly Zhu looks simple-minded, but he's really ruthless.

Looking at his father and younger brother, who were piled up on the ground and struggling like three turtles with their shells overturned, Liu Guangqi wondered if he should run away first.

The instigator, Sha Zhu, didn't take it seriously at all.

His gaze was fixed on Liu Guangqi.

"And you!" Sha Zhu pointed at Liu Guangqi, his bull-like eyes glaring. "Wasn't it you who came up with that lousy idea? Trying to harm my sister and Ling'er? You come here right now!"

Liu Guangqi was startled by his murderous gaze and instinctively took a step back.

He knew perfectly well that his rudimentary skills were nothing compared to Sha Zhu's.

Rushing in now would be suicide.

"I...I didn't!" Liu Guangqi retorted, his voice trembling with fear. "Don't make false accusations!"

"No?" Sha Zhu sneered. "Ask everyone in the yard, who didn't hear what you just said? You coward, you dare to do it but not admit it!"

"That's right! We all heard it!"

"Liu Guangqi, you're a real scoundrel!"

The neighbors in the courtyard all spoke up to testify, launching a barrage of verbal attacks against Liu Guangqi.

Liu Guangqi's face instantly turned a deep liver color.

He knew he was now beyond defending himself.

But at that moment, something else happened on the other side.

Cheng Shuhai had almost beaten Yi Zhonghai to a pulp.

The old man was now bruised and swollen, his face covered in blood, lying on the ground, too weak to even beg for mercy, only able to groan.

Cheng Shuhai felt that if the fighting continued, someone would die.

He just wanted to establish his authority today, he didn't want to actually get involved in a murder case.

So he stopped, stood up from Yi Zhonghai, and dusted off his hands.

He turned around and saw the "spectacle" of the Liu family father and son stacked on top of each other, as well as Sha Zhu confronting Liu Guangqi.

Cheng Shuhai's eyes turned cold.

He heard what everyone was saying.

That little bastard Liu Guangqi actually dared to make a move on his sister!

This has touched a raw nerve!

"Thanks, Sha Zhu." Cheng Shuhai nodded to Sha Zhu.

"Brother Cheng, don't be so polite!" Sha Zhu grinned, revealing a set of white teeth. "These bastards deserve a beating!"

Cheng Shuhai stopped talking, took a step, and walked towards Liu Guangqi.

He walked slowly, but every step felt like stepping on Liu Guangqi's heart.

Liu Guangqi looked at Cheng Shuhai, who had no expression and cold eyes, and his legs went weak with fear.

He witnessed Cheng Shuhai's ruthlessness and knew that this man was truly capable of killing.

"You...you stay away!"

Liu Guangqi screamed in terror, backing away while searching for someone to ask for help.

However, no one in the courtyard was willing to help him.

Everyone was watching him with amusement.

His mother, Sun Dali, was so frightened by the chaotic scene that she collapsed to the ground and could only cry.

Their "ally," Yi Zhonghai, is in an even worse situation than him, lying on the ground pretending to be dead.

despair!

An unprecedented despair enveloped Liu Guangqi.

"Cheng... Cheng Shuhai, I'm warning you! This is a new society. If you dare to act recklessly, the Military Control Commission will not let you off the hook!" He could only resort to the law in his last stand.

"Military Control Commission?" Cheng Shuhai laughed, a cold laugh. "Fine, I'd like to see whether your actions against a five-year-old are more serious, or mine are."

He walked up to Liu Guangqi and stopped.

Liu Guangqi had retreated to a corner, with nowhere left to go.

He leaned against the cold wall, looking at Cheng Shuhai's face so close to his own, and was so frightened he almost wet his pants.

"I...I was wrong...Brother Cheng, I was wrong!" Liu Guangqi completely caved, pleading with a sob in his voice, "I'm not human, I shouldn't have laid a hand on Ling'er! Please forgive me!"

"It's too late."

Cheng Shuhai uttered two words calmly.

He suddenly reached out, grabbed Liu Guangqi by the collar, and lifted him off the ground like a chick.

Liu Guangqi struggled desperately as his feet left the ground, but Cheng Shuhai's hands were like an iron clamp, preventing him from moving.

"You want to harm my sister, don't you?" Cheng Shuhai's voice was soft, but to Liu Guangqi it sounded like the whisper of a devil. "Then today, I'll let you taste the bitterness of despair too."

As he spoke, he picked up Liu Guangqi and turned to walk towards Liu Haizhong and his two sons, who were still groaning on the ground.

Everyone stared wide-eyed with curiosity, wondering what he was up to.

Cheng Shuhai walked over to the pile of "Arhats".

Then, he did something that left everyone speechless.

He raised his foot and, like kicking a shuttlecock, accurately kicked Liu Guangqi in the buttocks.

"You go up there too!"

Liu Guangqi let out a scream and flew into the air, landing squarely on the backs of his two younger brothers and his father.

"Thump!"

Now, the four members of the Liu family were neatly stacked together.

It was truly a father and son teaming up, with everyone stacked on top of each other!

Thunderous laughter erupted once again in the courtyard.

"Hahahaha! Oh my god, my stomach hurts from laughing!"

"Cheng Shuhai is so mean! This is even worse than being beaten up!"

Xu Damao was laughing so hard he couldn't stand up straight, and he was leaning against the door frame, panting heavily.

"Now that's great, the most important thing for a family is to be together!"

The atmosphere in the courtyard became incredibly joyful because of this dramatic scene.

Only the Liu family members, and Yi Zhonghai who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead, felt like dying.

"You little bastard! I'll fight you to the death!"

Yi Zhonghai's eyes were bloodshot. He roared and, with a burst of strength from who knows where, leaped up from the ground like a wounded wolf, spreading his arms and lunging at Cheng Shuhai's back.

He clenched his hands into claws, his nails turning white from the force, clearly intending to lock Cheng Shuhai from behind and then use his fitter's strength to choke Cheng Shuhai's throat!

Yi Zhonghai wants Cheng Shuhai dead!!!

"Cheng, watch out!"

Sha Zhu, being the closest, was the first to react and shouted a warning.

The people in the courtyard gasped in surprise. No one expected that Yi Zhonghai, who had been beaten half to death, would suddenly be able to injure people.

Cheng Shuhai ducked low, dodging Yi Zhonghai's hands, and then swung his hand back to grab!

"boil!!!"

Yi Zhonghai's screams immediately echoed throughout the courtyard.
