Siheyuan: Why does your brother beat you up every day, Shazhu?

So he said to He Daqing:

"Stop cursing. I just want to ask you—you're so close to Beijing, why have you never been back to visit?"

"After all these years, I haven't been back once! Why? Will you die if you go back and take a look?"

In He Weiguo's mind, because he had read a lot of fan fiction in his previous life, it was written in some of them that He Daqing seemed to have committed some crime and was captured by the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai, and forced to Baoding, and he dared not return to Beijing.

But he thought it was a bit far-fetched.

There is a huge logical loophole!

If He Daqing really did something wrong, would he be able to escape punishment by running from the old city to Baoding which is so close?

If you want to run, you have to run far.

So he thought that this shouldn't be the reason.

Sure enough, when He Daqing heard this, his expression darkened. He wiped the tears and sweat from his face and spoke in a low voice:

"Why didn't I go back? That's because... I was scared!"

"What are you afraid of?" He Weiguo didn't understand. Could it be that this guy really did something wrong?

"I'm afraid... I'm afraid that after I go back and see it... I won't be able to let it go..." He Daqing explained, his voice filled with pain:

"When I came out that year, you have no idea how determined I was! Along the way... I don't know how many times I cried secretly..."

"I'm afraid that once I go back... and see the two little ones at home, I won't be able to come back. I won't be able to bear to leave!"

After saying that, tears rolled down He Daqing's face again!

His face was filled with guilt towards his two children and great inner anxiety and struggle.

He Weiguo looked at He Daqing like this and became even more confused:

"No... stop crying there! Who are you crying for?"

"If you had any conscience, would you have left at that time?"

"Okay, even if I believe everything you said now, and it's true, you can't bear to leave those two little ones... If you can't bear to leave, then why do you want to leave?"

"Why should I leave?" He Daqing suddenly raised his head and asked:

"Your mother is gone... I was a man in his prime back then!"

"That White Widow... was so caring and concerned about me, and I... I was bewitched!"

He gasped and continued with his nonsense-sounding yet seemingly logical reasoning:

"The reason why I didn't bring the White Widow home, but followed her to Baoding... I know it in my heart! The reason why the White Widow is so nice to me is that she must have some ulterior motives for me!"

"If I really want to bring the White Widow home, then the house there...won't there be enough to go around?"

"The White Widow has two sons! Where will Zhuzi and Yushui live in the future?"

After listening to He Daqing's nonsense from the heart, He Weiguo didn't know how to comment for a moment.

Maybe everyone has multiple sides.

Many things may be different from what he previously knew or imagined.

Although He Daqing had countless "unavoidable" reasons from his own standpoint, the bottom line was that he had not fulfilled his fatherly responsibilities to his two children.

His choice is selfish.

But the biggest problem still lies with Yi Zhonghai!

If this guy hadn't withheld their living expenses, the two little ones would never have ended up like that!

Just as He Weiguo thought of this, He Daqing suddenly wiped his face, his eyes became fierce, and he spoke first:

"Weiguo! Now that you're back, Dad... I feel relieved!"

"You hit your father...you can hit your father! But you have nothing to say about Zhuzi and Yushui!"

"With you here... Daddy, don't worry!"

He stood up suddenly, as if he had made a huge decision:

"This time! I'll go back with you! Let's leave today!"

"I'm going to kill that bastard Yi Zhonghai when I get back now! I'm going to kill him!"

In He Daqing's opinion, the beating he received today was mostly because of that bastard Yi Zhonghai!

If Yi Zhonghai had not interfered and embezzled money, causing the children in his family to live a miserable life, would He Weiguo be so angry?

Why was He Daqing so necessary to be pressed to the ground and rubbed by his son?

Therefore, he must settle this account with Yi Zhonghai tenfold or a hundredfold!

Otherwise, He Daqing would not be able to swallow this!

Chapter 135 Return to Sijiu City

Dealing with Yi Zhonghai was part of He Weiguo's plan.

He had long felt that Yi Zhonghai had been avoiding him intentionally or unintentionally since he came to the courtyard. The number of times they met was very few. During this period, he was extremely low-key and did not do anything weird.

Now it seems that this guy knows that he has done something dirty and feels guilty!

But He Weiguo intuitively felt that just the matter of withholding He Daqing's living expenses would not be enough to make Yi Zhonghai so cowardly. There were probably other more shameful things involved.

But I can’t care about so many things for now. The fact that he embezzled living expenses is enough to make Yi Zhonghai suffer!

Looking at He Daqing, who was furious and wanted to rush back to the courtyard immediately, He Weiguo calmed down and said:

"You can go back with me. But I have to leave today."

"If you want to go, ask for leave now and follow me."

After He Weiguo finished speaking, He Daqing quickly waved his hand:

"No! I'm not going with you in that lousy truck!"

"Not only is your rickety car slow, but it also makes my butt hurt and it's a pain to sit in!"

"I took the train and arrived in just over three hours!"

"You're leaving from here, so go back first. I'll take the train tomorrow and arrive in Sijiucheng early tomorrow morning. Then I'll come to your food factory to find you!"

He went on to explain:

"I have to ask for leave from the factory first! After I'm done, I still have to report to... to the White Widow."

"After all, she and I are now eating from the same pot. If I'm away for a few more days, I have to go back and tell her and explain everything clearly."

"Once all this is done, I'll take the remittance stubs and evidence and take the bus back to the city tomorrow morning!"

He Weiguo thought He Daqing's arrangement was reasonable and nodded:

"Okay, you look at the arrangements."

But he immediately added, his eyes filled with warning:

"Think it over! Go back to the Forbidden City! If you don't want to go, you don't have to go, but you must give me the evidence."

"But if you promised me to go back and you don't show up tomorrow... then don't blame me for coming to Baoding to 'chat' with you again."

After hearing what He Weiguo said, He Daqing's anger that had just subsided suddenly came up again. He glared at He Weiguo:

"You bastard! I'm your father! Seeing Yu Shui and Zhu Zi living like that, I'm just as pissed off as you are!"

"Regarding this matter, no matter what, I must go back to the Forbidden City!"

"I must let that old fellow Yi Zhonghai know why the flowers are so red! Just keep your heart to yourself!"

"Okay!" He Weiguo nodded.

Now that things have been almost done - the goods have been delivered, He Daqing has been found and beaten, it is time for him to return.

There's no point in staying here. I have to hurry back with the receipt and report back.

He Weiguo walked to the door and knocked on it "dong dong dong" - the door was locked from the outside, and he couldn't get out unless it was opened from the outside.

After waiting for less than a minute, I heard the "click" sound of the key being inserted into the lock outside the door.

Soon, the door was opened from the outside.

Lin Nan stood outside the door with a smirk on his face.

Looking at his behavior, He Weiguo knew without a doubt that this guy had not left at all. He was probably hiding outside and eavesdropping!

As soon as Lin Nan opened the door, his eyes first fell on He Daqing's "wonderful" face - it was bruised and purple, and his eye sockets were a little swollen. He looked as shabby as possible, and indeed a little miserable.

He really wanted to hold back his laughter, but the uncontrollable craziness of the corners of his mouth completely betrayed him.

When He Daqing saw Lin Nan's "watching the fun and not minding the trouble" look of trying not to laugh, he instantly became furious!

However, due to the other party's identity as the head of the security department, he didn't dare to do anything. He could only grit his teeth and say:

"Good! Good for you, Chief Lin!"

"Remember this! If you want to have a special meal in the cafeteria next time, don't come to me! I won't accept you!"

After saying that, he walked out angrily and limped. His back looked aggrieved and stubborn.

Seeing He Daqing leave, Lin Nan said to He Weiguo in an exaggerated tone:

"Brother Weiguo, aren't you being too harsh?"

"Then no matter what Master He says... he's still your biological father, right?"

"Not only did you beat him up like this... he's even holding a grudge against me... What do you think I'm going to do about my food at the factory from now on?"

Seeing this guy deliberately showing off and being a jerk, He Weiguo was in no mood to talk nonsense with him. He said unhappily:

"You can do whatever you want!"

"No... who did you learn this trick of creeping against the wall and eavesdropping from?"

"Why is he still acting like this even after he retired?"

After saying that, he shook his head and walked out.

Hearing what He Weiguo said, Lin Nan was not angry. Instead, he laughed sarcastically and followed him out.
