Siheyuan: Tathagata's Palm suppresses the entire courtyard!

Jia Dongxu was panting, with beads of sweat on his forehead, "Mingjie, there is an important situation, we have to deal with it immediately!"

"What's going on?" Ran Qiuye also came over and looked at him with concern.

"It's like this..." Jia Dongxu told Xu Mingjie and Ran Qiuye the information he had just received. It turned out that an old resident they had contacted before had just suddenly encountered a serious health problem and needed emergency treatment.

"Mingjie, why are you here so early?" Ran Qiuye asked with some surprise.

Xu Mingjie smiled and said, "I have something I want to discuss with you. Can you come in and sit down?"

Ran Qiuye looked around, nodded, and let him in. The house was warm and tidy, with some family photos and decorative paintings hanging on the wall, which looked warm and comfortable.

"Sit down." Ran Qiuye pointed to the sofa and sat on the single chair opposite. "What do you want to see me about?"

Xu Mingjie sat on the sofa and looked around the room before he spoke: "I thought about the factory incident you told me about yesterday all night and I feel that we cannot just sit there and watch."

Ran Qiuye listened and looked at him with some emotion, "Mingjie, are you really willing to help me?"

They saw many animals in the zoo, and every place was full of novelty and surprise. The baby was also full of curiosity about these animals and laughed happily from time to time. Xu Mingjie and Lin Siyu looked at the baby's smiling face and were filled with joy.

"Mingjie, today is such a beautiful day." Lin Siyu said softly, looking at him tenderly.

Xu Mingjie nodded: "Yes, every day with you is a beautiful day."

Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and Xu Mingjie shivered involuntarily. He turned around and prepared to leave, but met an unexpected person at the corner - Jia Dongxu. This former classmate, now competitor, was standing not far away, seemingly waiting for something.

"Xu Mingjie? What are you doing here so late?" Jia Dongxu saw him and sneered.

Xu Mingjie frowned, alert in his heart: "What are you doing here again?"

Jia Dongxu shrugged, a sly look flashing in his eyes: "I just happened to pass by, and didn't expect to meet you here. From the look of you, is there something important?"

Xu Mingjie took a deep breath and tried to stay calm: "It's nothing important, just going out for a walk."

Jia Dongxu was not willing to give in and took a step forward: "Really? Then why don't you come in and sit down? Ran Qiuye is waiting for you at home."

This remark hit Xu Mingjie's sore spot. He raised his head abruptly and stared at Jia Dongxu sharply: "What do you want to say?"

Jia Dongxu smiled more sinisterly: "I just think that there are some things between you and Ran Qiuye that need to be discussed. After all, she is not alone now."

When Xu Mingjie heard this, his heart was in turmoil. He clenched his fists and tried to calm himself down: "What do you want to do?"

Jia Dongxu spread his hands and acted innocently: "I don't want to do anything, I just care about my old classmates. After all, we are all adults, and some things should be discussed openly."

Xu Mingjie looked at Jia Dongxu's half-smiley face, and his heart was burning with anger. He knew that Jia Dongxu was deliberately provoking him and wanted to make him lose his mind. But he couldn't do that. He had to stay calm and not let Jia Dongxu succeed.

"Jia Dongxu, you have your life and I have mine. Please don't bother me anymore." Xu Mingjie said coldly, turned and left without looking back.

Back home, Lin Siyu was coaxing the baby to sleep. Seeing Xu Mingjie coming back, she smiled slightly: "Mingjie, you came back so late, are you tired?"

Xu Mingjie nodded, walked over and hugged her gently: "I'm a little tired, but seeing you, I feel very satisfied."

Lin Siyu touched his face gently: "Go take a shower and rest for a while. I've prepared hot water for you."

Xu Mingjie smiled and nodded, his heart filled with warmth. He knew that no matter how complicated the outside world was, his family would always be his strongest support.

The next morning, Xu Mingjie decided to find Ran Qiuye to solve the doubts in his heart. He came to Ran Qiuye's residence early and was about to ring the doorbell when the door suddenly opened. Ran Qiuye stood at the door, as if she had expected his arrival.

"Xu Mingjie, you're here." Ran Qiuye's voice was still gentle, but there was a hint of complex emotions in her eyes.

Xu Mingjie nodded and took a deep breath: "Ran Qiuye, can we talk?"

Ran Qiuye nodded slightly, opened the door, and motioned him to come in. Xu Mingjie walked into the house, and the familiar furnishings and warm atmosphere made him a little dazed. The two sat in the living room, and there was a hint of tension in the air.

"Qiuye, I know there are a lot of misunderstandings and unresolved issues between us." Xu Mingjie said, his voice a little hoarse, "I hope we can have a good chat and make everything clear."

Ran Qiuye lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then said softly: "Mingjie, I have been wondering over the years what went wrong between us. Perhaps we both need some time and space to re-examine our hearts."

Xu Mingjie nodded: "Yes, I have been thinking about this issue over the years. I know that I have not done well in many areas, but I really hope to have a chance to make up for it."

Ran Qiuye raised her head, tears flashing in her eyes: "Mingjie, I don't blame you for anything. I just hope that we can both find our own happiness, no matter who we are with."

Xu Mingjie's heart tightened. He reached out and wanted to hold Ran Qiuye's hand: "Qiuye, I have always cared about you. I hope we can start over and get back the feeling we once had."

Ran Qiuye gently pushed his hand away, her eyes full of determination: "Mingjie, some things have passed, and we can't go back to the past. We need to face reality and go our separate ways."

Xu Mingjie's heart seemed to be cut by a knife. He looked at Ran Qiuye with pain and reluctance in his eyes: "Qiuye, have you really decided?"

Ran Qiuye took a deep breath and nodded: "Yes, I have decided. We all need to move on and stop dwelling on the past."

Xu Mingjie closed his eyes and tried to control his emotions. After a moment, he opened his eyes and said in a low and firm voice: "Okay, I respect your decision. I hope you can find your own happiness."

Ran Qiuye smiled slightly, with a hint of gratitude in her eyes: "Thank you, Mingjie. I also hope you can be happy."
