Stay away from beasts in the world of Siheyuan

Chapter 179 No malicious intent?

When Xu Changping returned to the courtyard, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. Looking at the quiet courtyard, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

After what happened to Jia Dongxu during the day, he thought he would hear Jia Zhang's evil voice when he came back, but he didn't expect that everyone in the yard looked like they had already gone to bed.

Yes, Jia Dongxu just had surgery today and should still be in the hospital. Jia Zhangshi should also still be in the hospital and has not returned yet.

He stood under the wall, ready to jump over it and into the yard, when he suddenly discovered that the broken glass that had previously covered the wall had been cleared away by someone.

Xu Changping exerted force on his feet, climbed into the yard, opened the door from the inside, and pushed the bicycle parked outside the gate in. Then he closed the door and walked quietly back to the east wing.

"Meow~~"

Just as he was opening the door, a low cat's meow sounded at his feet. He lowered his head following the sound and saw a pair of small light bulbs facing him.

Xu Changping took out his flashlight and shone it over, then said in surprise, "Xiao Hei, why are you here?"

Isn't this the cat from Yang Xiaoyue's house? Why is it squatting outside his house in the middle of the night?

"Meow meow~~"

Xu Changping originally just wanted to tease it, but unexpectedly, the black cat seemed to understand what Xu Changping said. It called out to him twice and then ran under the Moon Gate.

After running over, he saw that Xu Changping did not follow him, so he turned around and shouted at him twice.

At this moment, Xu Changping's curiosity was also aroused. He took a few steps and followed it to see where it was taking him.

Standing under the moon gate, Xu Changping saw the black cat. It ran all the way to the door of He Yuzhu's house and stopped, sitting there as if waiting for Xu Changping to come and knock on the door.

Xu Changping's heart was moved. Could it be that Yang Xiaoyue came here today? And she left Xiao Mi behind? Then Xiao Mi shouldn't be at her own home, why did she go to He Yuzhu's home?

He didn't have time to think about it before he felt something strange in his pants. He looked down and saw the black cat pulling his trouser leg hard with its teeth.

Seeing this, Xu Changping did not kick Xiao Hei away, but knocked on He Yuzhu's door.

"Who!"

Soon the lights in the room were turned on, and a low voice came from inside the door.

"Brother He, it's me, Xu Changping."

As soon as Xu Changping finished speaking, the door of the He family was opened from the inside. He Yuzhu said sleepily, "Brother Xu, why are you back so late today?"

"I ran into something and was delayed. I'm sorry to bother you so late. I want to ask..."

"He's here. I managed to coax him to sleep with great difficulty." He Yuzhu interrupted Xu Changping before he could finish his words.

Today He Yuzhu left work early just to send Bai Yingying home safely.

As soon as they arrived home and before they opened the door, they saw an extremely beautiful girl, who said she was Xu Changping's fiancée, coming to see Xu Changping with a child.

Unexpectedly, the other party didn't find Xu Changping, and when he saw the couple, he was so generous that he entrusted the child to them directly.

He waited with the girl until after nine o'clock, but Xu Changping still didn't come back. Seeing that the girl was very sleepy, he found a place for her to sleep first.

I didn't expect Xu Changping to come back so late. Seeing that he was still wearing the same clothes he wore during the day, he must have come here without even entering the house.

When Xu Changping was about to tell He Yuzhu that he was going in to take the child away, Xiao Mi appeared from behind him and threw herself on his lap with a look of surprise.

"Brother Candy, you're back!"

"Well, something happened to me today, so I came back late." Xu Changping squatted down and explained to Xiao Mi.

"It's okay, I'm glad you're back." Xiao Mi said like a little adult.

"Then Brother He, I will take Xiao Mi back first. I'm really sorry to bother you today." Xu Changping smiled and rubbed Xiao Mi's head, picked her up, and then said to He Yuzhu.

"It's okay. It's so late. You should take her back to rest." He Yuzhu replied with a smile.

After watching Xu Changping carrying the little girl into the east courtyard, He Yuzhu closed the door and went to bed.

"Xiao Mi, is your sister going up the mountain again?"

When they arrived at the door of the house, Xu Changping asked Xiao Mi in a low voice while unlocking the door.

"Well, she said she would be gone for several days this time." Xiao Mi yawned loudly and said with tears in her eyes.

Seeing her like this, Xu Changping didn't ask any more questions. He quickly helped her wash up, changed her into pajamas, and stuffed her into the quilt.

Nothing happened that night. The next day, Xu Changping didn't have to go to work. He got up and took Xiao Mi to have breakfast. Then he started asking questions based on what had happened last night.

"Did your sister make it clear how many days she would be gone?"

"She said five days at the least, and maybe more." Xiao Mi thought for a moment and repeated her sister's original words.

"Is that so? Then you can only go to work with your brother recently." Xu Changping rubbed her head and said.

Xu Changping thought to himself that either Yang Xiaoyue's cultivation technique had advanced, or she had gone to the mountains in another place.

"I know. My sister told me when she left." Xiao Mi nodded her head sensibly and said.

Xu Changping squatted down and said to Xiao Mi with a smile: "Brother will take you to a fun place today."

"Great! Brother Candy, you're so nice." When Xiao Mi heard that they were going to a fun place, she immediately smiled.

Xu Changping estimated that Jia Zhang and Yi Zhonghai would probably do something weird today, so he planned to hide away. It was not because he was afraid of them, but because he felt there was no need to confront these people and lower his own level.

It just so happened that he hadn't visited his master for a while, so since he had nothing to do today, he planned to go to the library to kill some time.

Thinking of this, he got up, packed a bag of fresh meat in the kitchen, and took Xiao Mi out of the courtyard.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked out of the courtyard, I ran into He Yuzhu. He was not alone, and there was a man who looked to be in his fifties following him.

"Brother Xu, are you going out?"

"Brother He! I don't have anything to do today, so I'm taking the kids out to play." Xu Changping replied with a smile without asking who the person behind him was.

"The weather is cold, be careful not to let the children catch a cold." He Yuzhu did not introduce the person behind him, but smiled and touched Xiao Mi's head and said.

"I understand. Brother He, you go ahead and do your work. We'll leave first." After Xu Changping said this, he pushed his bicycle away.

"Xiao Mi, why did your sister entrust you to their house yesterday?" After leaving Nanluoguxiang, Xu Changping suddenly remembered this.

"Because the people in their family have no ill will towards you." Xiao Mi lowered her head and played with the small scarf around her neck, and replied nonchalantly.

"No ill intentions?" Xu Changping repeated Xiao Mi's words without figuring out what they meant. He just smiled, got on his bike and went to the library.
