The Courtyard House: The story begins with He Yuzhu beating up the White Widow.

Song Shinian and his wife exchanged a glance. Song Shinian said, "Old He, since your family is so generous, our family won't be coy either! Our daughter can take the betrothal gifts back with her, and her mother and I will give her an extra thousand yuan as a dowry. We don't have any other requests, as long as the young couple is happy!"

He Daqing said, "Don't worry! If Zhuzi dares to treat Xiaoran badly, I'll break his legs without you even having to say a word!"

He Yuzhu then declared, "Uncle! Aunt! Don't worry! I will treat Xiao Ran well for the rest of my life and I will never let her suffer."

Song Shinian nodded in satisfaction and said, "Kid, I'll remember what you said! If you dare to make my daughter suffer, I'd rather my daughter be a widow than let you get away with this!"

He Yuzhu grinned and replied, "Uncle, you won't have that chance!"

He Daqing said, "Old Song, now that the children's affairs are settled, when do you think would be a suitable time to carry out the ceremony?"

Song Shinian thought for a moment and said, "There aren't many days left until the Spring Festival. The 23rd of the twelfth lunar month is the Little New Year. Let them get their marriage certificate. Their wedding date will be the fifth day of the first lunar month. What do you think?!"

He Daqing thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "Okay! We'll do it your way." Then, changing the subject, he continued, "These days, the higher-ups aren't encouraging extravagant celebrations. How about this? We originally planned to have a few tables at Taifeng Restaurant at noon to entertain your bride's relatives and friends. That would be too ostentatious and inappropriate. After discussing it, we decided to have a few tables at Zhuzi's courtyard. After lunch, I'll take you there to get acquainted with the place. It'll be more convenient for you to visit in the future."

"Knock! Knock! Knock!" Just as He Daqing finished speaking, the knocking on the door rang out.

He Yuzhu immediately went to the door, opened it, and called out with a smile, "Master!" He then stepped aside. Tian Zhenyue entered the private room, bowed to Song Shinian and his wife, and said, "I am Tian Zhenyue! He Yuzhu's master!"

Song Shinian stared at Tian Zhenyue for a few seconds, then suddenly stood up and asked, "Don't you recognize me?!"

Tian Zhenyue was stunned. After a moment, he tentatively asked, "Are you that young scholar?!"

Song Shinian exclaimed excitedly, "You still recognize me?!"

Tian Zhenyue said, "If you don't look closely, you really wouldn't recognize me. I never imagined we'd become in-laws!"

Song Shinian said to his wife, "Wenya, this is the person I've always told you about, the one who saved me back then."

Tian Zhenyue said, "What happened back then is all in the past. There's nothing to bring up! No wonder when Zhuzi brought Xiaoran to my place the other day, I felt like I recognized that girl. I didn't expect her to be your daughter."

Seeing the puzzled look on his daughter's face, Song Shinian explained, "Back when I was a student, I was spreading revolution in Beijing. I was chased by the reactionaries and seriously injured. I was saved by Master Tian. I stayed with Master Tian for a month to recover. Later, when I was doing underground work in Beijing, I was chased by the Japanese devils, and Master Tian saved me again."

Tian Zhenyue said, "It seems our fate has actually extended to these two little ones."

He Daqing said, "Junior brother, we've just discussed it. We'll have Zhuzi and Xiaoran get their marriage certificate on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. We'll hold a banquet for them at Zhuzi's courtyard on the 5th of the first lunar month."

Tian Zhenyue said, "Okay! I'll arrange the chef; I guarantee everyone will have a good meal!"

Hearing a noise outside the door, the sharp-eared He Yuzhu immediately spread his divine sense. He discovered someone was eavesdropping. He Yuzhu slowly moved to the door of the private room, then suddenly flung it open. Xiao Lin, who was eavesdropping with his rear end sticking out, was caught off guard and stumbled inside. He Yuzhu stepped on Xiao Lin's back and demanded, "Who are you?! What do you want?!"

The moment Tian Zhenyue saw Xiaolin, his expression changed instantly. Tian Zhenyue walked to He Yuzhu's side, grabbed Xiaolin, and asked coldly, "What do you want to do?!"

"Master, don't worry about this! I'll handle it!" With that, He Yuzhu took out handcuffs and cuffed Xiao Lin. Then he said, "Uncle and Aunt! Please sit for a while. I'll take him to the station and be right back!" With that, He Yuzhu took Xiao Lin and started to walk outside.

By this time, Kobayashi had come to his senses and shouted, "Why are you grabbing me?! Let me go!"

Hearing the commotion, Lu Junhui immediately ran out of his office and saw He Yuzhu leading Xiao Lin downstairs. Lu Junhui immediately stepped forward and stopped He Yuzhu, saying, "Comrade, what are you doing?!"

He Yuzhu said, "I suspect he's an enemy agent! Take him back for questioning!"

Upon hearing the words "enemy agent," Lu Junhui's face instantly changed. Xiao Lin, also terrified, cried out, "Manager Lu, I was only doing this on your orders! You have to save me!"

He Yuzhu asked, "Did you let him eavesdrop?! What are you trying to do?!"

At that moment, Lin Haichao, the private manager of Taifeng Restaurant, rushed over in a flurry. Lin Haichao glanced at Lu Junhui and asked, "What happened?!"

The surrounding waiters didn't dare to utter a sound. Lin Haichao looked at He Yuzhu and said, "Zhuzi, since they're all silent, you speak up!"

He Yuzhu laughed and said, "Manager Lin, you still recognize me?! My master is the head chef at your restaurant. I invited my father-in-law here today to discuss our wedding. It was supposed to be a joyous occasion. But I didn't expect this guy to be acting so suspiciously ever since we entered the restaurant! In all my years as a policeman, I've arrested quite a few enemy agents. But only enemy agents hate me to the core."

Lin Haichao wasn't stupid; he understood the implication in He Yuzhu's words. Lin Haichao said, "Zhuzi, we've known each other for many years. Don't you know what kind of person I am?!"

He Yuzhu said, "Manager Lin, I know you! But I don't know the man next to you. He just said he was acting on orders. I need to take them to the club to see what's going on. You won't refuse, will you?!"

"He Yuzhu! What's going on?!" Just then, Zhang Hu arrived. He Yuzhu didn't embellish the story and directly told Zhang Hu what had happened. At the same time, He Yuzhu released his divine sense to scan Lu Junhui. Although Lu Junhui wasn't an enemy agent, he wasn't a good person either. Over the years as the company manager, he had done his fair share of falsifying accounts and embezzling money.

Zhang Hu glanced at Xiao Lin, who was handcuffed by He Yuzhu, then at Lu Junhui, before walking to the counter, picking up the phone, and dialing a number. The call connected shortly after. Zhang Hu spoke a few words to the person on the other end and then hung up.
