Chapter 180: You
Hearing Xu Damao's words, Yu Haitang thought for a moment and asked:
"Will Lou Xiao'e frame you again this time?"
Xu Damao: "That's hard to say."
"Because of my divorce from her, she already bears a grudge against me."
"There's also another person."
Yu Haitang: "Who?"
Xu Damao: "Who else could it be? My mortal enemy Shazhu."
"He also told me he has his eye on you."
"He warned me that if I dare to have designs on you, he'll risk his life for me."
Yu Haitang frowned: "Shazhu?"
"Aren't you more familiar with him than I am?"
"He loves to throw punches at the drop of a hat."
"No, didn't you say you've already learned martial arts from Lin Shengli, and now Shazhu is no match for you?"
Xu Damao: "Yeah, I can beat him down in an instant now."
"But I'm in the light and he's in the dark; he's a petty person, so I'm worried he'll resort to underhanded tactics."
"And once someone goes all out, it's not simple."
"He's cheap with his life, but I can't be like him, right?"
Yu Haitang: "It's fine, I'll make it clear to him."
"He won't cling to me stubbornly."
Xu Damao smiled and said: "You're just so pure and especially cute."
"You still don't understand Shazhu; Shazhu is one thing in the factory."
"But in our courtyard he's a completely different person."
"But I'll keep an eye on it."
"We don't have to fear him, huh."
Yu Haitang: "That's right, that's the Xu Damao I know, a real man."
Night.
Xu Damao and Yu Haitang were drinking at home, and Xu Damao accidentally overindulged again.
While chatting happily with Yu Haitang, the door was suddenly forced open; Xu Damao looked up and saw Liu Haizhong with his hands behind his back, a grim face, stepping in slowly.
Xu Damao's drunkenness cleared instantly, and he looked at Liu Haizhong, saying in a deep voice:
"Group Leader Liu, this is your fault, isn't it?"
"Knock on the door, do you even understand manners?"
Liu Haizhong frowned and asked:
"What are you two doing?"
Yu Haitang's eyes flickered, and she said:
"Group Leader Liu, we are discussing a broadcast script."
Group Leader Liu: "Is there such a discussion?"
"What time is it now? Huh?"
"A man and a woman at home, aren't you afraid of gossip?"
Xu Damao said irritably:
"You're being far too lenient in your meddling, aren't you?"
"Besides."
"This is my own home."
Liu Haizhong pointed at Xu Damao and asked:
"Who said that just because it's your home I can't intervene?"
Xu Damao, angry, stood up, and Yu Haitang hurriedly pulled him back, saying:
"Xu Damao, calm down."
Xu Damao looked at Yu Haitang and said softly:
"Don't be afraid, Haitang."
While speaking, pointing at Liu Haizhong's eyes, he said viciously:
"If I don't crush Liu Haizhong's arrogant swagger today, then I, Xu Damao, have lived in vain."
Liu Haizhong furrowed his brows, pointed at Xu Damao, and shouted angrily:
"You spew reckless words."
"Is it that when I ignore you you get all fired up? Huh? Don't go overboard!"
Yu Haitang pulled Xu Damao behind her and forced a smile at Liu Haizhong:
"Um, Group Leader Liu, Xu Damao has had a bit to drink."
"Sorry for being disrespectful to you, it's like this."
"Um, please let me explain."
"Um, now I'm in a romantic relationship with Xu Damao, and I haven't set my sights on your second son."
"Now you should understand, right?"
"Haitang, you don't have to take the blame on yourself, okay."
Speaking, he pointed at Liu Haizhong and then said:
I just want to compete with Liu Haizhong today.
Liu Haizhong: "Is that what you said?"
Xu Damao shouted: "I said it."
Liu Haizhong roared: "Then we'll see tomorrow."
Xu Damao: "Fine, I'll wait for you."
Liu Haizhong stared at Xu Damao, wishing he could swallow him whole and skin him alive.
But, thinking that even Shazhu wasn't a match for Xu Damao, he still restrained himself.
Turning around, just as he was about to leave, he saw Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu walk in.
Liu Guangtian looked at Liu Haizhong and chuckled:
"Dad, I've said it before—from now on you'll still have to rely on me and Guangfu."
"But you won't even give us a single fried egg to eat."
Liu Guangfu: "Yeah, Dad, you're going too far!"
"I've said it—there will be times when you'll need us."
"But you treat us......"
Before Liu Guangfu could finish speaking, Liu Haizhong kicked him in anger and shouted:
"You little bastard, get lost!"
Having said that,
He walked out.
Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu exchanged a glance, then also walked out.
Yu Haitang hurriedly shut the door and said to Xu Damao:
"Damao, you've caused trouble!"
Xu Damao: "Haitang, for you I fear nothing—I fear no one."
Yu Haitang: "But he's ultimately a man of real ability."
Xu Damao: "What 'man of real ability'? Come, let's sit and keep drinking."
"I'm telling you, if I'm not sure, I won't act—so you can relax."
Yu Haitang thought for a moment, then said:
"But if I were to marry you in the future, we'd all live in the same courtyard, still in the rear court—how would we get along then?"
Xu Damao: "Don't worry, just wait—wait until Liu Haizhong apologizes to you."
"By then you'll know it's easy to get along."
"It's fine, don't bother with him."
"Let's keep talking about us."
Just then, a knocking came from outside.
Xu Damao got angry, stood up, quickly walked over, opened the door—he had already prepared his scolding words, but ended up swallowing them whole.
Because standing at the door was Yu Li.
Yu Haitang also saw Yu Li, walked over, and asked:
"Sister, how did you come here?"
Yu Li gave a look of resentful indignation at Yu Haitang, not answering but instead asking back:
"Do you know what time it is now?"
"You, a young lady, are drinking alone with a single man in his house—what propriety is this?"
Xu Damao became unhappy: "Haitang is already grown up."
Yu Li: "And what of it?"
"No matter how old she gets, she's still my sister."
"Xu Damao, I ask you: are you the type who won't cry until seeing a coffin?"
Xu Damao frowned: "What, what do you mean?"
Yu Li: "If you keep bothering my sister, I guarantee that tomorrow the whole Red Star Community will know about your inability to have children."
Xu Damao: "This, this—I already said it all."
"I said that only so I could divorce Lou Xiao'e."
Yu Li: "Fine, then tomorrow I'll accompany you to the hospital for a checkup."
"If you can have children, I'll apologize to you."
"If you can't, what will you do?"
Yu Haitang slapped her forehead and said:
"Oh right, how did I not think of that?"
"Damao, now everyone says you can't have children—I think you only have to go to the hospital for a checkup to make everyone shut up."
Xu Damao secretly took a deep breath, looked at Yu Haitang, and asked:
"Haitang, do you believe me?"
