Siheyuan, Kaiju replaced He Yuzhu as the chef

Lou Xiao'e initially felt that Lu Qing's words last night were a bit exaggerated. Although Xu Damao was not a good person, they were still husband and wife after all.

She thought things wouldn't turn out so badly.

But what she never expected was that Xu Damao revealed his true colors just after the divorce was completed.

Those words were so disgusting that Lou Xiao'e was so angry that she trembled all over.

She was filled with sorrow, thinking how she had lived with such a man and had been so unaware of his true nature.

I really had been around such a sinister person for so long without realizing it.

Lou Xiao'e suppressed her emotions, bit her lip, and just looked at Xu Damao coldly without saying anything else.

Lu Qing was right. It would be dangerous for her to continue staying in the capital.

She must talk to her parents as soon as possible and leave here before Xu Damao does anything more extreme to her.

However, she also wondered whether her parents would agree with her concerns or think she was making a big deal out of nothing.

Seeing that Lou Xiao'e stopped arguing, Xu Damao smiled complacently, "That's right, be obedient, we still have something to discuss."

"Go back and wait. I'll let you know in a few days. We'll have to catch up." He said it lightly, even threateningly, "If you don't obey, I have plenty of ways to make you obey. For your own sake and for your family's sake, think it over carefully."

Lou Xiao'e gritted her teeth and finally couldn't help cursing, "Xu Damao, don't expect this to end well!"

Xu Damao laughed loudly, obviously not caring about her reaction at all, and felt that she had no way to do anything to him.

Lou Xiao'e didn't say anything more. Now was not the time to anger Xu Damao.

She had to go home as soon as possible to discuss countermeasures with her parents. She left quickly and almost ran back home.

As soon as she arrived at the door of her house, Lou's mother came out of the house. Seeing her panic, she hurriedly asked, "Xiao'e, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Lou Xiao'e took a deep breath and said calmly, "Mom, Xu Damao and I are divorced."

"What?!" Lou's mother was so surprised that she didn't know what to do. "Didn't you say yesterday that you were just going home to rest? So you had plans in advance?"

Lou Xiao'e nodded and whispered, "Yesterday I still had a glimmer of hope in my heart, but now I have completely seen through him. I can't live with him anymore."

Seeing her daughter's haggard look, Lou's mother quickly took her into her arms and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, it's okay. Divorce is fine, and your father and I are still at home. We will support you in the future, don't worry."

After hearing what her mother said, Lou Xiao'e felt a little better and relaxed.

"Where's Dad?" she asked.

"He is in the study, go talk to him." said Lou's mother.

"Mom, you come with us. I have something very important to tell you." Lou Xiao'e said seriously.

Lou's mother looked at her doubtfully, not knowing what her daughter wanted to say, and went into the study with her.

When Father Lou saw his daughter coming in, he smiled and asked, "Why are you back so soon? What happened?"

Lou Xiao'e frowned and said firmly, "Dad, I have something to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" Father Lou put down the book in his hand and looked at her puzzledly.

"Let's leave the capital and move somewhere else." Lou Xiao'e took a deep breath and said slowly.

Father Lou was slightly startled, his eyes became sharp, and he asked in a deep voice: "Why do you suddenly have such an idea? Did you hear any rumors?"

Father Lou has always been a vigilant person. When he heard his daughter's words, he immediately realized that the situation was not optimistic.

As businessmen, their family belonged to a relatively special group in this era, and any slight disturbance would make him extremely nervous.

"You mean, someone in the compound reminded you to let us leave the capital as soon as possible?" Father Lou asked seriously.

Lou Xiao'e nodded. "Yes, although I didn't quite believe what he said at first, thinking he was just exaggerating. But today, after I divorced Xu Damao, his true colors were exposed. He threatened me directly and used you to blackmail me. I'm worried that he will do something excessive, after all, he knows too much about our family. If he really reports us, our whole family may be in trouble."

Hearing this, Father Lou frowned. Things were developing too fast for him to digest for a while.

Not only had he just learned of his daughter's divorce from Xu Damao, he also had to deal with threats from Xu Damao and warnings from a stranger named Lu Qing.

"Is what you said true?" Father Lou asked calmly.

"Yes, Dad. I'm really worried. Xu Damao is not a good person at all." Lou Xiao'e responded anxiously.

"What about Lu Qing you mentioned? Are you sure he is a trustworthy person? Is what he says reliable?" Father Lou asked sharply.

Lou Xiao'e hesitated for a moment, then shook her head. "I'm not entirely sure, but his words made me start thinking about these things."

Father Lou pondered for a moment, waved his hand and said, "Since you are not sure yourself, we still have to observe it. Moving is not a trivial matter, especially in a place like Beijing. If we act rashly, the risk is too great. We need a more certain basis."

Lou Xiao'e nodded gently, "I understand."

For Lou Xiao'e, Beijing is her home, and leaving here is not an easy decision.

She could also understand her parents' cautious attitude.

However, she didn’t know how to deal with the current threat, especially from Xu Damao.

Father Lou sighed and said, "I have seen Xu Damao before. Don't worry, I will go find him and have a good talk with him to make him mind his own limits."

"But, Dad, will this anger him?" Lou Xiao'e was a little worried.

Father Lou smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, I will be very sensible and will not anger him. Leave it to me."

"Well, thank you, Dad." Lou Xiao'e finally let go of some of the anxiety in her heart.

After the mother and daughter left the study, Father Lou let out a long sigh.

He turned and walked to the bookshelf and opened the bottom drawer. There seemed to be some junk inside, but he skillfully opened the secret compartment at the bottom of the drawer, revealing several gold bars.

Father Lou knew that the most effective way to deal with someone like Xu Damao was to use money to shut him up.

He knew that a head-on confrontation was not the best strategy and he would be the only one to suffer in the end.

Xu Damao was born in a farming family, and he was a businessman, so others would naturally be more inclined to trust Xu Damao.

Therefore, to solve the problem, we can only use gold bars to "eliminate the disaster."

Father Lou carefully put a gold bar into his bag, then closed the drawer, left home and headed straight for the courtyard.

As he was not familiar with the terrain of the courtyard, he entered from the front yard, and after crossing the front yard, he quickly arrived at the middle yard.

When he first stepped into the middle courtyard, he saw several people talking. One of them was a young man with an extraordinary temperament, and he was facing an elderly man.

When Father Lou saw the old man clearly, his expression changed immediately.

An expression of disbelief filled his face, and then he shouted in surprise: "Mr. Song, it's really you!"
