Love in the Courtyard: Starting with Engineers

"Doesn't it look good?" Bai Ling asked Li Yu.

"What's so interesting?" Li Yu asked, feigning ignorance.

Bai Ling rolled her eyes at Li Yu, then smiled and asked, "Is she fair-skinned? Is she big?"

Li Yu looked Bai Ling up and down and said, "She should be a bit older than you."

Bai Ling angrily slapped Li Yu and said, "I knew you were a scoundrel!"

"How dare you say I'm younger than her? How am I younger than her?" she said, puffing out her chest.

Li Yu said innocently, "Her age? She's over thirty, that's older than you!"

Bai Ling looked at Li Yu with disbelief and said, "You mean age?"

"Otherwise what? What did you think it was?" Li Yu said as he sat down to eat.

Bai Ling, while poking at the rice with the edge of her bowl, said softly, "You're definitely not talking about age."

Qin Huairu arrived at Sha Zhu's house and cried incessantly. Sha Zhu looked at Qin Huairu helplessly.

After crying for a while, Qin Huairu, her eyes red and swollen, looked at Sha Zhu and said, "Zhu Zi, what should I do? Bang Geng might get shot."

Sha Zhu was shocked to hear that the stick was going to be shot, even though he knew it was important from the time they searched the toilet last night.

But Shazhu never expected that Banggeng would be shot at.

Qin Huairu cried and said, "I went to ask them today, and they told me that what Bang Geng stole was important confidential information."

"Why would that damn Li Yu keep such an important thing at home! He must be trying to harm Bang Geng!" Sha Zhu said viciously.

"I'm going out for a bit!" Li Yu said to Bai Ling in the kitchen.

He had planned to do something drastic to the two of them after he saw that Qin Huairu hadn't gone home but had gone to Sha Zhu's house.

Li Yu arrived at Sha Zhu's door and blew in the remaining aphrodisiac powder. Two minutes later, seeing Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu taking off their clothes, Li Yu arrived at Jia's door.

Li Yu, pretending to be passing by, said, "Even Sha Zhu is a eunuch now, I didn't expect Qin Huairu to still be like that with him, really~"

Hearing the noise outside, Jia Zhangshi, who was inside the house, pushed open the door and rushed out to Sha Zhu's door.

Jia Zhangshi's body, weighing over 200 pounds, smashed the door open.

As soon as she entered the door, Jia Zhangshi saw the two naked men embracing and kissing each other.

While pulling at Sha Zhu, Jia Zhangshi shouted, "Help! Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu are having an affair!"

Hearing the commotion, the people in the courtyard all gathered at Sha Zhu's door.

Upon seeing the scene inside, everyone felt a sense of familiarity.

"Why does this look so familiar?" someone said.

Someone nearby replied, "Didn't Yi Zhonghai also spend time with Qin Huairu in the cellar before...?"

More and more people gathered to watch.

Li Yu thought that these two were going to be paraded through the streets no matter what.

Unexpectedly, Sha Zhu actually followed Yi Zhonghai's example and wanted to marry Qin Huairu to support the entire Jia family.

Li Yu exclaimed that as expected of the protagonist, he was indeed difficult to kill.

The two quickly obtained their marriage certificate the next day, shocking the residents of the courtyard house.

They also gained a clear understanding of Qin Huairu's methods—she had no bottom line and would stop at nothing.

Now, every woman in the courtyard says to her man, "If you dare to get close to Qin Huairu, I'll castrate you!"

From then on, every man in the courtyard wanted to stay far away from Qin Huairu.

That day, Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu brought some food to visit Bang Geng in prison. Bang Geng came to them with his face covered in bruises.

Qin Huairu couldn't stop crying when she saw Bang Geng.

Qin Huairu cried and asked Banggeng, "Banggeng, who hit you?"

Actually, Banggeng was beaten on his first day here. When he first came in, he saw several older kids blocking the toilet.

He started cursing and tried to pull the man away, but little did he know that the man was the jailer. Once the man was held down, he was immediately hit with a hammer.

Unexpectedly, the more they hit him, the more he cursed, until the prison guards arrived and they stopped.

That night, when everyone was asleep, Banggeng went to the jailer's bed and rammed his head into his nose.

Not only that, he also bit off a chunk of flesh from that person's face.

From that day on, Bang Geng got beaten up every day.

Bang Geng burst into tears as he looked at Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu: "They beat me, they all beat me every day, and even though I complained to the prison guards, they didn't care."

Seeing that Bang Geng had lost weight, Qin Huairu quickly opened the lunchbox and found braised pork made by Sha Zhu inside.

When Banggeng saw the braised pork, he instantly forgot to cry and grabbed it, stuffing it into his mouth.

Seeing Bang Geng like this made Qin Huairu even more upset.

After finishing his braised pork, Banggeng looked at Shazhu and said, "I told you to stay away from my mom, why are you here again!"

Qin Huairu pulled on the stick and said, "This is your father, Zhuzi. You can't say that anymore."

"What! He! He's not my dad! My dad is Jia Dongxu!" Bang Geng shouted.

"You silly child! Your mother and I are married now, so I'm your dad from now on."

Shazhu said to Banggeng.

Bang Geng stared at Qin Huairu in disbelief and said, "What! You two actually got married! I was locked up in there and you two got married!"

Qin Huairu cried as she said to Banggeng, "Banggeng! Mom had no choice. If we didn't get married, I wouldn't be able to see you again!"

Bang Geng, remembering his mother's affair with Yi Zhonghai, pointed at Qin Huairu and exclaimed, "You! You! You adulterous couple!"

After saying that, he was about to hit Shazhu when the guards pulled him back.

"Alright! We've seen and eaten, it's time to go home!"

After saying that, he grabbed the stick and left.

Back in the courtyard house, Qin Huairu's mind was filled with images of Bang Geng cursing her as an adulterer and adulteress. She didn't know why she had ended up like this.

Just then, the verdict for Bang Geng came down, and Director Wang personally led the police to the courtyard.

To nip this in the bud, Director Wang plans to address the matter publicly.

She then asked Liu Haizhong to call everyone in the courtyard out. Everyone was there except for Li Yu, who was working overtime at the steel rolling mill.

Director Wang stood in front of the square table and said, "Jia Geng's verdict has been handed down; he will be executed by firing squad five days later!"

Upon hearing that it was an execution by firing squad, Qin Huairu collapsed to the ground, stunned.

Sha Zhu, who was standing nearby, quickly helped him up.

None of the people in the courtyard expected that they would be executed for simply stealing something.

"Quiet! You might think it's just stealing something, but what you don't know is that Jia Geng stole important documents about national development."

Upon hearing this, everyone discussed among themselves, saying, "So that's how it is."

"That's absolutely damnable."

At the same time, everyone was planning to go home and say hello to their children, but they absolutely must not go into Li Yu's house.

Does anyone know what important thing it is?

After Director Wang finished speaking, the police handed the judgment to Qin Huairu, who had just woken up.

After receiving the money for the bullets, the police officer left the courtyard with Director Wang.

Qin Huairu stared at the verdict, tears streaming down her face.

Five days later, with a gunshot, Bang Geng went offline.
