Marriage in crisis

I pulled Chi Xi back down the steps, panicking and walking in the opposite direction.

The alley here is unobstructed and there is nowhere to hide. By the time I realized that I was on the wrong track and it was too late to go back to the other side, the footsteps in the courtyard could be heard clearly and I had already reached the door.

While we were stunned, a big hand grabbed my arm, which scared me so much that I almost screamed, but a "shh" sound came from my ears.

Chi Xi immediately covered my mouth, grabbed my arm with his strong hand and quickly took a few steps back, pushing me down behind a public trash can.

I panicked and tried to shrink myself as much as possible, peeking through the gap between the two trash cans.

The figure quickly carried Chi Xi and walked towards the opposite side of my hiding place. He pushed Chi Xi against the wall and the figure blocked it...

On the street corner not far from the courtyard gate, two people were stacked on top of each other, giving the impression that they were a couple kissing in the dark!

I immediately understood that this was to attract the attention of people coming out. As long as anyone came out of the yard, no matter who they were, their attention would be attracted to these two figures and they would forget to look at me.

At the same time, the small courtyard door creaked and was gently pushed open, but the person who came out immediately shrank back.

It seemed that he was also frightened by the sudden figure.

After ten seconds of silence.

A cautious inquiry came from Deng Jiazhe, "Who? What are you doing?"

The figure on the street corner moved, and the people outside turned their heads to look at the source of the sound, and said angrily, "None of your business!"

It was obviously like a couple who were disturbed. The man didn't want to, turned around and glared in the direction of the courtyard door and cursed.

Deng Jiazhe didn't even dare to fart, and strode into the back door of my house.

Two minutes later, a fat figure also came out of the small courtyard. Just as he was about to look this way, the boy scolded him again, "What are you looking at?"

The figure dragged me to the door and disappeared into the back door of my house in a hurry.

I sat down on the ground, holding my heart and panting, thinking to myself, it's so scary!

Chi Xi then ran over and pulled me up, "It's okay! It's okay!"

I looked again and saw that the figure had disappeared.

I asked Chi Xi, "Is that Chen Lang just now?"

She nodded, her voice full of charm, "Yes!"

"I'll go!...Thanks to him, how come I didn't know he was coming?" I patted my heart and praised him.

Chi Xi glanced at the backyard door and said softly, "Let's go, it seems we can't go through the backyard door!"

I looked at it and nodded, "Then we have to go around to the front, Chen Lang is gone!"

Chi Xi pointed to the small courtyard.

I nodded, thinking to myself, that’s fine!

Then he pulled Chi Xi and quickly left the place of right and wrong.

Not long after, we entered through the main entrance in an open manner, pretending to be happy while walking and chatting.

Sure enough, my dad and Deng Jiazhe were chatting in the big living room. I looked at them and asked, "Why aren't you sleeping?"

Deng Jiazhe immediately spoke first and said softly, "I just went upstairs and lay down for a while, but couldn't fall asleep, so I came down again. Dad happened to be there too. Where have you been?"

His eyes looked at me carefully, with inquiry in them, and I knew very well that he was not satisfied with me going out.

I was secretly glad that Chi Xi and I took a detour through the front door, so it took some time.

Otherwise, he will doubt our whereabouts.

"I took Chi Xi shopping, but I didn't want to run into Fa Xiao, who I played with when I was a kid, so I dragged us to the bar to play for a while!" I pretended to be chatting, looked at my dad and asked, "Dad, what are you still doing? Remember Yang Di? He seems to be doing well!"

What I said was just nonsense, but my dad cooperated very well, "Why don't you remember? The Yang family moved away, but it has been a few years. I actually saw this Yang Di twice later. I heard that he was doing What kind of trade, I haven’t seen it for many years!”

"Yeah! It's that Yang Di!" I reached for the tea cup on the table, poured a glass of water, and took a big sip. "My health is not good. I have walked too much! Are you still talking? Aren't you going to sleep? Haizhen what? Time to leave?"

I asked three questions in a row and brought the topic back to Zhou Haizhen.

Sure enough, my topic worked, and my dad immediately opened the floodgates.
