Siheyuan, Kaiju replaced He Yuzhu as the chef

In the past, when Yi Zhonghai spoke to Lu Qing, he always spoke in a condescending manner.

However, Yi Zhonghai seemed cautious today, even with a pleading tone in his voice.

This humble attitude completely overturned everyone present's impression of Yi Zhonghai.

Liu Haizhong couldn't bear to watch it anymore and couldn't help but say, "Lu Qing, forget it, let's just leave it at that."

Yan Bugui also echoed: "Yes, Lu Qing, the uncle has already admitted his mistake, why not let him go."

Lu Qing supported his chin and glanced at Yi Zhonghai indifferently. Seeing him look so humble, he felt secretly very happy.

Yi Zhonghai had used countless despicable means behind the scenes, making the original person's life miserable.

If we send him directly to prison now, it would be too easy for him.

Lu Qing thought to himself that it would be better to squeeze out Yi Zhonghai's value bit by bit, and when he was no longer useful, he would ruthlessly abandon him, just as Yi Zhonghai wanted to do to himself back then.

Lu Qing sneered in his heart, treating others in their own way.

He said calmly: "You said this yourself, don't forget to hand the money to me later."

Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth, feeling unwilling, but he had to whisper: "Remember, I must remember."

Lu Qing shrugged and said helplessly: "Okay, I believe in front of so many people, I will give you one last chance."

Although Yi Zhonghai was filled with resentment, he now had no way to retreat.

He stared at the two policemen nervously, not knowing what would happen next.

The police seemed very confused about the situation and had no idea what was going on.

Lu Qing turned around, smiled at the police and said, "I'm sorry, we just found someone acting suspiciously in our yard and thought it was a thief. But after checking, we found that it was a resident of our own yard. It was really a misunderstanding. Sorry to bother you to make a trip."

The two policemen narrowed their eyes, obviously not completely believing Lu Qing's words.

However, the neighbors nearby nodded in agreement: "Yes, it was just a misunderstanding, it's no big deal."

"I'm so sorry to bother you. You've worked so hard so late. You should go back and rest."

Seeing that no one raised any objections, the police didn't say anything more. They just looked at them meaningfully and turned away.

After the police left, the whole yard breathed a sigh of relief, especially Yi Zhonghai. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and finally felt a little relieved.

At this moment, Lu Qing smiled and said, "Uncle, does what you just said still count?"

Yi Zhonghai was stunned for a moment, raised his head and glared at Lu Qing with resentment in his eyes.

Lu Qing just crossed his arms, looked at him playfully, and chuckled, "Why? Are you going to regret it?"

The people around him also echoed: "Uncle, we have helped you so much, you can't even break your promise, right?"

"Yes, uncle, you can't go back on your word."

Yi Zhonghai knew very well that the current situation did not allow him to regret.

If he doesn't fulfill his promise, no one present today will help him anymore.

So he had to bite the bullet and said through gritted teeth: "Don't worry, I won't break my promise."

Lu Qing laughed coldly, "I don't have much confidence in your character, and I'm afraid you'll change your mind again tomorrow. Why don't you give me the money now while everyone is here?"

He spoke very bluntly, clearly distrusting Yi Zhonghai's character.

Given Yi Zhonghai's character, Lu Qing knew very well that he would most likely change his mind tomorrow, so it would be safest to get the money first while everyone was present.

The reason why Lu Qing gave Yi Zhonghai a way out was because of the money.

At present, life at home has become much better because of the two hundred yuan from He Yuzhu.

If we could get another 400 yuan from Yi Zhonghai, our family's financial situation would be even better.

In this day and age, four hundred dollars is a huge sum of money.

Although Yi Zhonghai was angry inside, he had no room for rebuttal at this moment.

What happened tonight made him lose face. He didn't want to continue to tangle with Lu Qing, otherwise it would only make himself more embarrassed.

He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I'll get it for you now." After that, he turned around and went home.

The others did not disperse, and were all waiting to see what Yi Zhonghai would do next.

Sure enough, after a while, Yi Zhonghai came out again with a large sum of money in his hand.

He walked up to Lu Qing, seemed a little hesitant, but finally handed him the money.

"From now on, you and I owe each other nothing." Yi Zhonghai said in a low voice.

Lu Qing took the money and smiled faintly: "I hope so."

He took the money and left with great satisfaction. Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui looked at the money with indescribable envy and jealousy.

There are many people to support at home and the expenses are high. Such a large sum of money is a huge fortune for them, enough to make their lives much better.

But there was no way, today the money fell into Lu Qing's hands.

As soon as Lu Qing left, the others also dispersed and returned to their homes.

Qin Huairu stood there, but her heart couldn't calm down for a long time.

She never thought that things would develop to this point.

She has completely offended Yi Zhonghai.

Although he was not taken away by the police, would he be able to live well in the courtyard in the future?

Just as she was thinking, she suddenly felt a vicious gaze directed at her.

She looked up and saw that it was Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai just glared at her fiercely, then turned around and went home.

When an old lady passed by her, she spat angrily and cursed, "You vixen!"

Qin Huairu was shocked all over, and she opened her mouth to refute, but she couldn't say a word.

She knew that she had completely angered Yi Zhonghai and the aunt tonight.

As people went home, the courtyard returned to peace.

But the mood of each household was not calm. Every couple lay in bed, discussing in a low voice what happened tonight.

Lu Qing's dominance and the ambiguous relationship between Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu became the focus of everyone's discussion.

At the same time, the relationship between Yi Zhonghai and the aunt also fell into a cold war.

The aunt couldn't help shedding tears and choked up, "You are the eldest uncle of the courtyard, how could you do such a thing? Do you know that if Lu Qing hadn't let go just now, you might have died! Now that Lu Qing is staring at you, why don't you know how to be careful?"

Yi Zhonghai's face was gloomy, and he angrily retorted: "Enough! Didn't you see what happened just now? I was framed by Qin Huairu!"

Hearing him say this, the aunt felt even more aggrieved.

She had known about the relationship between Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu for a long time, but because she felt guilty about not being able to have children, she turned a blind eye to it.

But things have become so serious tonight, and he still refuses to tell the truth?

She wiped her tears and sobbed quietly.

Yi Zhonghai snorted and said coldly: "Why are you crying? There is nothing to cry about. I will not let this matter go."

"Something is wrong tonight. Why did Lu Qing bring people here? Could it be that... he and Qin Huairu teamed up to deliberately set up a trap to trick me?" Yi Zhonghai said in a deep voice, his face full of suspicion.
