Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

Because of this kind of incident, the organization specifically told Chen Xu to just shoot when encountering trouble and not to show mercy.

It is better to shoot directly than to capture him alive. It is worse than letting Chen Xu get into trouble.

Chen Xu’s identity is special now. Even a master can’t avoid making mistakes. If he gets killed, it will be a big trouble.

Faced with Director Nie's persuasion, Chen Xu could only nod in agreement.

October.

Chen Xu welcomed Xu Damao and Lou Xiaoe in the evening.

Xu Damao looked a little depressed, and Lou Xiao'e hugged Lin Chan and cried as soon as she entered the room.

"Got to go?"

"Well, we'll leave tonight."

It was not surprising at all that Chen Xu could guess Xu Damao.

Chen Xu sighed. Xu Damao couldn't let go of Lou Xiao'e and Xiao Taiyang in the end.

But it’s better to leave. Xu Damao’s personality can actually get along well anywhere.

"Okay, stop being so fussy. When you come back, you might be the big boss."

"Take care, brother."

"Take care of yourself."

Chen Xu watched Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e disappear into the night, feeling a little depressed. His best friends, relatives, and brothers had just left him like that.

It would probably be ten years before we meet again.

The Xu family is very single. Not only did Xu Damao leave, but even Old Xu, his wife, and sister all ran away with the Lou family.

Obviously, if Xu Damao ran away, the Xu family would also be in trouble, so it would be better for them to run away together.

Chen Xu was speechless as he looked at the boxes left by Lou Xiao'e. Silly E'e said that they were sent by Lou Bancheng, just as a reward for Chen Xu reminding the Lou family.

Chen Xu did not refuse, although he did not take the various sizes of yellow croakers seriously.

One of the white jade bracelets caught his attention.

Isn’t this thing the heirloom of that silly girl Lou Xiao’e?

When Chen Xu returned to the space to check what was in the box, he was confused when he saw the bracelet in a small box inside the box.

What does it mean that this silly girl doesn't keep this thing herself but throws it here?

Chen Xu didn't think Lou Xiao'e was interested in him. He knew very well that Lou Xiao'e was just a friend to him. And Sha E'e didn't have any other ideas. She probably thought it was safer to keep her with Chen Xu.

The same is true.

Lou Xiao'e left the heirloom with Chen Xu simply because she trusted him. As for taking it to Hong Kong City, forget it, as she had no idea what the situation was like there.

The Lou family brought a lot of property with them, so they didn't lack any heirlooms, and she had no intention of selling them.

With an uncertain future, Lou Xiao'e thought it would be better to leave the heirloom behind. If she could come back one day, the heirloom would naturally still be hers.

If I can't come back, I will give the heirloom to my best friend.

Chen Xu thought that Sha Ezi gave the heirloom to him for safekeeping, and didn't know that Lou Xiao'e actually left it for Lin Chan. Obviously, Lou Xiao'e had also prepared for the worst.

If something happened to her, this bracelet would be the gift she left for Lin Chan.

Chen Xu didn't think much about it and directly threw the heirloom and several boxes into the wooden house in the space.

The Lou family's escape caused quite a stir, and some people even came to the courtyard to search and ransack the house.

But Xu Damao's house had nothing but furniture, and then he asked the residents of the courtyard for some information, including Chen Xu.

Compared to facing others, those people's attitude towards Chen Xu was much better.

Chen Xu just said a few perfunctory words and got away with it.

In fact, these people did not expect the people in Siheyuan to provide any useful clues. After all, Xu Damao was not their main target. They mainly wanted to know the whereabouts of Lou Xiaoe.

Anyone in the Lou family is much more important than Xu Damao.

Xu Damao's three main rooms were sealed off and stamped with seals.

Everyone in the courtyard sighed. Some said that Xu Damao was implicated by the Lou family, but others said that Xu Damao did not see the situation clearly. He was now a deputy section-level cadre in the steel rolling mill, and there was no need for him to run away with them.

But someone immediately objected, Xu Damao already has a child, do you think you can just give up?

Everyone had their own opinions, and Chen Xu just listened silently. The matter was a foregone conclusion, and now that everyone had left, there was no point in saying anything more.

This matter ends here and has nothing to do with Chen Xu.

After all, although the two families have a good relationship, they are just good neighbors at best. In addition, given Chen Xu's identity, who would be so bored as to take it out on him?

It's totally not worth it.

Chen Xu understood this very early, so he did not stop Lin Chan and Lou Xiao'e from interacting. He was getting along well with Xu Damao now, so he didn't need Lou Xiao'e.

Lin Yuan was a little depressed, and Chen Xu comforted him with a smile.

"Miss Ezi?"

"Kind of. Now that I think about it, it's pretty nice to have a silly... ahem, active friend. At least I can talk to him."

Lin Chan’s only friend in the Siheyuan was Lou Xiao’e. After this woman left, Lin Chan had almost no contact with the people in the Siheyuan. Fortunately, she still had her man.

Chen Xu has been a little annoyed with Yu Haitang recently. This woman is far worse than Qin Jingru.

Not only in terms of appearance, but also in terms of behavior.

Looking at Yu Haitang who once again came to his office while Lin Chan was delivering the report, Chen Xu chose to speak frankly.

"I am married."

"I don't care..."

Yu Haitang looked determined.

Chen Xu was speechless. You don’t care, but I do.

"Go back and find someone nice to you and don't waste your time on me. I'm not kidding."

Chen Xu stared at Yu Haitang, whose face was a little pale, and warned her directly.

"Has anyone ever told you that you are actually very heartless?"

Yu Haitang left after saying this, leaving Chen Xu confused.

I am heartless? I am loyal, okay?

This woman is hopeless.

Lin Chan still looked curious when he came back.

"Chen Xu, Yu Haitang is squatting under the stairs crying, and no one knows what's going on."

"I cursed..."

"what?"

Chen Xu recounted what had just happened, then asked Lin Chan with a puzzled look on his face.

"Am I heartless?"

Lin Chan looked at her man's resolute face.

"You are not cruel to your own people, but it's hard to say for others."

Chen Xu nodded silently. Just as he said, he was a man without any sympathy.

But he is very nice to his own people, and Chen Xu doesn’t think there is anything wrong with his behavior.

Lin Chan sighed. She was still a little angry when she heard Chen Xu talking about Yu Haitang coming to see him just now. But when she saw her man's current appearance, her anger immediately dissipated.

No one can snatch my man away from me, and I don't even need to do anything to get him pissed off by Chen Xu...

In the eyes of Qin Jingru, Qin Huairu, and now Yu Haitang, Chen Xu is a real straight man, the kind that wouldn't even look at someone right when he's offered to you.

Lin Chan felt that there was no need for her to get angry about such a small matter, lest it ruin the relationship between her and Chen Xu.

As for pretending occasionally, it is naturally a part of the romance between husband and wife.

Lin Chan is very smart, and she understands most things. Her man is able to remain unmoved in the face of various temptations. If she still holds on to this matter, it will be totally counterproductive.

The trust is mutual. Chen Xu is willing to tell her all his biggest secrets, and she will naturally trust Chen Xu unconditionally.

Just as Chen Xu said when he married her.

They are husband and wife, and they should prosper together and suffer together.
