The world of film and television begins from childhood

"What? How did he know?"

Lou Xiao'e was so frightened that she accidentally revealed her secrets. When she came to her senses, she was very embarrassed.

Zhou Chen said, "I told you that I heard it from Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong when they were conspiring. I know who they are, and I know who you are, too. In fact, Xu Damao reported you because he was afraid of being implicated by your family. He also wanted to divorce you because he has found a new lover, Qin Huairu's cousin Qin Jingru."

Lou Xiao'e's face turned pale and she cursed, "I knew it, I knew Xu Damao was not a human being. He, he was a shameless bitch. And Qin Huairu's cousin is not a good person either."

"Lou Xiao'e, although Xu Damao and I have a grudge, I don't want you to get hurt, so I informed you. I told you this because I want you to be prepared."

After Lou Xiaoe cursed a few times, she suddenly asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Zhou Chen, why are you helping me?"

"Didn't I tell you that you are innocent? Our courtyard is too messy. You shouldn't live here. It will only ruin your future."

Although Lou Xiao'e is not a good person in the courtyard, she is definitely not a bad person. Compared with those people in the courtyard, she is really much stronger.

Although he had no personal relationship with her, he was prepared to deal with Xu Damao and did not want to implicate Lou Xiao'e. He also did not want to see Lou Xiao'e suffer the same fate as in the TV series.

As for her love with He Yuzhu in the TV series, forget it. If it weren't for the deaf old lady's forced matchmaking, they would never have been together.

Looking at what happened later, Lou Xiao'e was framed by He Yuzhu and those people in the courtyard, and became a huge sucker. Only a TV drama would dare to portray it this way.

In Zhou Chen's opinion, the best option for Lou Xiao'e is to leave the Siheyuan and never come back.

Lou Xiao'e moved her eyes and asked again: "Then, what should I do? Divorce Xu Damao? I have thought about divorcing him, but, but..."

Zhou Chen understood her thoughts. Divorce is not a glorious thing even if it happens decades later, let alone now.

"Lou Xiao'e, let me tell you the truth. If you don't divorce Xu Damao, you will never have children in your life, and Xu Damao will destroy your family."

"really?"

Lou Xiao'e asked in a trembling voice: "Is it really Xu Damao's fault that we can't have children? Would Xu Damao really be so cruel as to harm our family?"

"You can't have children. It's indeed Xu Damao's fault. As for your family, you have lived with Xu Damao for several years. I think you should know what kind of person he is. Can he do such a thing?"

Lou Xiao'e stopped talking. Thinking of Xu Damao's character, she was almost certain that Xu Damao could do it.

"Zhou Chen, what should I do then?"

For a moment, she was a little confused. She had been a little girl since she was a child and had never experienced anything. After following Xu Damao, she rarely did things or made decisions. At this time, she panicked and didn't know what to do.

Zhou Chen thought for a moment and said, "If you are willing to believe me, I can give you an idea."

Lou Xiao'e didn't think twice and replied directly: "I believe you, Zhou Chen, I believe you won't lie to me."

Her thoughts were very simple. She felt that since Zhou Chen had told her such things, there was no point in lying to her. She was more willing to trust Zhou Chen, an outsider, than her husband Xu Damao.

"Okay, since you are willing to trust me, then do as I say. Let your parents take you away from the capital as soon as possible. If conditions permit, you can go abroad or to Hong Kong, but you must leave as soon as possible."

"Are you really leaving?"

After all, this is the place where she has lived for more than 20 years. Lou Xiao'e still has deep feelings for this city and is not willing to leave.

"Yes, we must leave."

"I remember it, what else?"

"Also, I need your cooperation to deal with Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao, use..."

…………

Zhou Chen lied to Lou Xiao'e. In fact, he did not hear Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao's plan. He just spoke based on the plot in the TV series.

However, he felt that this would most likely happen, because Xu Damao was still the same Xu Damao. Now he would definitely do that in order to get rid of Lou Xiaoe as soon as possible. He just wanted to move things forward temporarily.

Shortly after Zhou Chen told Lou Xiao'e about this, Lou Xiao'e kept staring at Xu Damao, and then followed Xu Damao and found that Xu Damao and Qin Jingru were quarreling, so she exploded.

Not only did he have a big quarrel with Xu Damao, he also went to Qin Huairu's house, pointed at Qin Jingru and cursed her, saying she was shameless, seduced a married man, etc.

Qin Jingru was scolded so badly that she wanted to resist, but she had no reason at all. In the end, she was forced back to the house by Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu wanted to persuade Lou Xiaoe, but Lou Xiaoe didn't listen to her at all and made a big fuss in the yard.

Qin Jingru was originally Qin Huairu's cousin, but after this incident, she became completely famous in the courtyard.

During this process, He Yuzhu watched the show while eating melon seeds, muttering to himself, saying things like "you deserve it" and gloating over the other's misfortune.

The fuss was so big that Xu Damao, who had no patience with Lou Xiao'e, simply went to the Civil Affairs Bureau with Lou Xiao'e to divorce. After the divorce, he and Liu Haizhong immediately searched for the things that Lou Xiao'e left at home, including a box of gold bars and jewelry.

Upon learning that Lou Xiao'e was divorced, the deaf old lady saw an opportunity and wanted to match Lou Xiao'e with her eldest grandson Sha Zhu. Unfortunately, before she could make a move, Lou Xiao'e moved out of the courtyard and returned to her parents' home, making her wish come to nothing.

This was also what Zhou Chen meant. He didn't want to see Lou Xiao'e being cheated by He Yuzhu, so he told her to leave the Siheyuan as soon as possible after the divorce. Lou Xiao'e was obedient and did as he said.

Xu Damao, who divorced Lou Xiao'e, did not feel sad at all. He took Qin Jingru back home on the same day. It was truly a seamless transition.

Xu Damao was indeed ruthless. Just a few days after divorcing Lou Xiao'e, he immediately teamed up with Liu Haizhong to search Lou Xiao'e's house.

However, thanks to Zhou Chen's advance reminder, the Lou family had already been prepared. When they arrived, they found that the Lou family's house was empty and all their belongings had been moved away.

After all, Mr. Lou was a big businessman in his past. Most of the Third Steel Rolling Mill used to belong to him. Although he was later defeated, he still had certain connections. With advance preparation, he naturally escaped to Hong Kong with his family safely.

The matter of Lou Xiaoe's family did not cause much commotion in the courtyard. In other words, many people in the courtyard are forgetful, but those who leave the courtyard will probably be forgotten in a short time.

…………

Li Huaide looked at Zhou Chen who was sitting in front of him with a puzzled look.

"Doctor Zhou, do you have something to talk to me about?"

He and Zhou Chen had not had any contact since the last time he helped Liu Haizhong search Zhou Chen's house in the courtyard. Today Zhou Chen suddenly came to him, which made him very confused.

Zhou Chen's face was calm, and he said slowly: "Director Li, I came to you to report Liu Haizhong to you."

"Report Liu Haizhong?"

Li Huaide was stunned at first, but soon felt relieved and sighed heavily.

"Doctor Zhou, I know that what happened last time caused you a lot of trouble, but didn't you hit Liu Haizhong to vent your anger? It's all in the past. There's really no need for you to keep harping on it. People should look forward."

Zhou Chen said: "I am a bit petty sometimes and I hold grudges, but this time I came to you to report Liu Haizhong not just because of personal grudges."

Li Huaide was surprised: "Isn't this a personal grudge?"

"Yes, it's about Lou Xiao'e. Lou Xiao'e is Xu Damao's ex-wife and a member of the Lou family."

Li Huaide's expression suddenly tensed up. Of course he understood which Lou family Zhou Chen was talking about.

"Doctor Zhou, what do you want to say?"

"Director Li, don't be nervous. I didn't mean any harm. I treated Lou Xiao'e and she wanted to give me some of her hidden things as compensation to express her gratitude, but I refused. After Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao divorced, Liu Haizhong confiscated the things in Lou Xiao'e's home. It was Liu Haizhong who led the team at that time."

"What I want to say is that Liu Haizhong is very greedy. Lou Xiao'e told me the number of things she hid. There are a total of... I wonder if this is the number that Liu Haizhong gave to Director Li?"

Li Huaide's expression suddenly became very ugly: "Doctor Zhou, is what you said true?"

"Of course it's true. Lou Xiao'e had no reason to lie to me. If it wasn't this amount, it must have been embezzled by Liu Haizhong or Xu Damao."

Zhou Chen looked at Li Huaide with a smile. He certainly knew who Li Huaide was. Some of Lou Xiaoe's things must have been taken by him secretly. However, he could take them away, but he would not allow his subordinates to cheat him.

"Zhou Chen, I still need to investigate this matter."

Zhou Chen showed an expression of knowing everything: "Director Li, I don't care about Lou Xiao'e's things. The only thing I want to do is to make Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao look good. Director Li, I believe you can help me with this, right?"

"Of course, if Director Li is unwilling to help, I can only go to Director Yang. However, Director Yang and I have such a good relationship. If I have no choice, I really don't want to trouble him."

Director Li laughed dryly and hurriedly advised: "Doctor Zhou, what you said is wrong. There is no need to trouble Director Yang for such a small matter. I can handle it."

If Zhou Chen told Director Yang, given that he and Director Yang didn't get along well, Director Yang would definitely not let go of the opportunity to target him, and he would be in big trouble then, so he wanted to stabilize Zhou Chen as soon as possible.

Zhou Chen then smiled and said, "I knew Director Li was very powerful, there must be no problem."

The reason why he went to find Li Huaide instead of Director Yang was because if he went to find Director Yang, given Director Yang's personality, he would definitely be impartial and it would be difficult to achieve the result he wanted.

But Li Huaide is different. This man will do anything to achieve his goal. As long as they can reach an agreement, it will be very easy to deal with Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao.

Li Huaide said in a deep voice: "I can help you deal with Liu Haizhong, but this matter of Lou Xiaoe..."

"Director Li, don't worry, I know what to do. If I report it, it won't do me any good. Besides, I'm not the kind of person who likes to meddle in other people's business. If Liu Haizhong hadn't been so bullying, I wouldn't have come to you, let alone bring up this matter."

He spoke the truth. He was not a great and glorious person. No matter how awful Li Huaide was, he had no intention of dealing with him as long as he was not provoked.

Li Huaide breathed a sigh of relief, then asked, "Then what do you want me to do?"

Zhou Chen sneered: "Didn't Liu Haizhong want to send me in for reform? Then I will repay him with an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, and let him go in for reform."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 909: Liu Haizhong is imprisoned

"You want to send Liu Haizhong in?"

Li Huaide took a breath. He didn’t expect Zhou Chen to be so cruel.

"You are from the same courtyard after all. Is it necessary to go to this extent?"

Zhou Chen glanced at him coldly and said, "If I was framed by him last time, I would have been sent to prison for reform. This time, I am just going to let him go in for reform, which is already a bargain for him."

Li Huaide laughed dryly. Although he was a leader, he did not dare to underestimate Zhou Chen at all, because he found that Zhou Chen was not a good person and was particularly vindictive.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. He felt that it was better not to offend Zhou Chen than to offend Liu Haizhong. If he had to give up Liu Haizhong, he would have given it up.

"Okay, I agree to help you, but how do you want to do it?"

"Do as you have planned."

With Zhou Chen's advance notice, Lou Xiao'e was able to hide the gold bars and jewelry again in advance, but Zhou Chen discussed with her about using these gold bars and jewelry as bait to retaliate against Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao, and Lou Xiao'e agreed without even thinking about it.

Although it was a considerable fortune, Lou Xiao'e, who had lived a wealthy life since childhood and was loved by her parents, would not suffer any loss if she gave up that part of the property, as her parents had more assets hidden in their relatives' homes.

So she agreed to Zhou Chen's request directly, leaving the gold bars and jewelry, which gave Zhou Chen the opportunity to deal with Liu Haizhong.

The next day, Li Huaide asked someone to call Liu Haizhong to his office.

"Director Li, you're looking for me?"

Liu Haizhong nodded and asked, he was in a pretty good mood recently, the incident with Zhou Chen had no effect, he put on the airs of a leader again, and started to show off in the factory and the courtyard.

However, he also knew that he could have his current status because of a word from Li Huaide, and he had also tasted the power, so in the past, he could still rely on his status as a seventh-level worker to bully Li Huaide.

But now, he no longer has this mentality. He only wants to curry favor with Li Huaide, and maybe he can be promoted to a higher position.

For example, deputy director?

Li Huaide smiled and said, "Team Leader Liu, what have you been busy with recently?"

Liu Haizhong didn't have any city mansion at all, so he said directly: "Director Li, I'm planning to deal with silly Zhu recently. This kid often brings food back from the cafeteria. He is a big cancer in our rolling mill. He must be dealt with."

"Shazhu? He Yuzhu?"

Li Huaide just asked casually, but he didn't expect to get an unexpected reward. He said in surprise: "Why did you think of dealing with him? I remember that day, He Yuzhu seemed to speak for you, right?"

As for what Liu Haizhong said about Sha Zhu taking food back, it was not a big deal in his opinion. Sha Zhu was not the only one who brought food back from the factory canteen, and he was too lazy to care.

Liu Haizhong snorted coldly, "Director Li, that's because you don't know what happened between Sha Zhu and that little bastard Zhou Chen. He is not speaking for me at all. He has a grudge against Zhou Chen, so he stood up."

When he was bullied by Zhou Chen that day, although Sha Zhu stood up for him, he did not feel grateful at all. Instead, he felt that Sha Zhu was meddling in his affairs. After Xu Damao's instigation these days, he had the idea of ​​taking action against Sha Zhu, and once the idea came up, it was out of control.

Li Huaide shook his head after hearing this. He was extremely disappointed with Liu Haizhong. Originally, he promoted Liu Haizhong because he had a lot of seniority in the factory and could be a knife in his hand, helping him do things that he was not good at doing.

But since Liu Haizhong came to power, nothing he did made him satisfied, they were all shit.

Originally, he had already agreed to Zhou Chen, but now the more he looked at Liu Haizhong, the more unpleasant he was, so he became more determined in his heart to make a choice.

So he advised earnestly: "Team Leader Liu, please put aside He Yuzhu's matter for now. I have a very important task to give you."

Liu Haizhong was overjoyed when he heard this. He had been worried about not having the opportunity to make merit recently. Now that Li Huaide had an important task to give him, how could he not be happy.

"Director Li, no matter what the task is, as long as you give it to me, I will definitely help you complete it."

Seeing Liu Haizhong's excitement, Li Huaide really didn't know what to say to him. Is he walking into a trap?

"We received a report that there is a problem with a family. I need you to search this family tonight and find evidence of the crime. Is that okay?"

When Liu Haizhong heard that it was another search and quarrel, he became very excited. Having had this kind of experience before, he really liked this kind of thing.

"No problem, Director Li, leave it to me. I promise I'll do it properly."

Li Huaide said calmly: "Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you. Remember, use our people and don't tell anyone before taking action."

"clear."

That night, Liu Haizhong led a group of people and rushed into the target's house like wolves and tigers. They quickly found evidence of the crime and arrested all three members of the family.

The target this time was the one Zhou Chen found. They were not a good family, but a family with numerous crimes. They could use Liu Haizhong to enforce justice and also trick Liu Haizhong at the same time.

During the action, Zhou Chen followed him all the time, Liu Haizhong really lived up to his expectations, and secretly hid some while collecting 'criminal evidence'.
