Chapter 423: Fear to Damage the Vessel While Throwing at a Rat

Liu Guangfu finally apologized to Shazhu.

He had to apologize.

hearing that, if he today got into a fight with Shazhu, Liu Haizhong would very likely not acknowledge him as his son.

Then the property would have nothing to do with him, that would be a huge loss.

Shazhu originally wanted to use this opportunity to teach Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian, those two brothers, a lesson.

So that he would fear him even more in the future.

Who knew Liu Guangfu would bring out the person he fears most.

This is Lin Shengli.

He really cannot afford to provoke him.

Although he somewhat doubted Liu Guangfu's words, after all Liu Guangfu and Lin Shengli had hardly any interaction.

But for such matters, it's still better to believe it might be true than to believe it's false.

What if it's true?

Then Lin Shengli might just clean him up.

So he still decided to be a bit more careful.

Fortunately, Liu Guangfu apologized to him.

He also had no choice but to go along with it, step down the slope.

Since a step has been given, if he doesn't come down now, when will he?

So.

After Liu Guangfu finished apologizing, he picked up the lunchbox on the table and grinned:

"Liu Guangfu, good that you're sensible, kid."

"But this isn't the most important thing."

"What is the most important then?"

"You don't know, do you, kid?"

"That's your parents' face."

"I just promised your dad no fighting."

"Since you apologized, I'll let you off, ah."

Liu Guangfu gave Shazhu a sullen glance, snorted, and said nothing.

Shazhu looked at Liu Haizhong and Second Aunt and said:

"Alright, Second Elder, Second Aunt, let's leave it at that, ah."

"I'm heading out first."

Second Aunt nodded and said:

"Mm, take your time."

Shazhu nodded, let out an "ei", glanced triumphantly at Liu Guangfu, and walked out.

Liu Guangfu kept staring at his back until it disappeared from his field of view, then turned his head to Liu Haizhong and Second Aunt, opened his mouth to speak, but Liu Haizhong gave him a look that silenced him.

He made a nasal sound and swallowed the words at his lips.

He decided to observe first before speaking.

At that moment, Liu Guangtian stood up with his hands in his pockets, looking outside, muttering to himself:

"Is what Shazhu said true or false?"

Liu Guangfu also stood up, let out a long sigh, and said:

"I guess it's true."

"That Shazhu's restaurant is quite famous; those people from the street office often go there."

"Maybe the news leaked and Shazhu heard it."

"Besides."

"Besides, Shazhu never jokes about major issues, especially those concerning the Siheyuan."

Liu Guangtian looked at Liu Guangfu and asked:

"No, Guangfu, why are you so tough now?"

"You actually stood up to Shazhu."

Liu Guangfu smiled and said:

"This Shazhu......"

At that moment, Liu Haizhong's cough suddenly sounded, and Liu Guangfu hastily swallowed the rest of his words.

Liu Guangtian shook his head and said:

"Alright, it's just a dog biting a urine bubble, empty joy."

Having said that, he thought a moment, then turned his gaze to Liu Haizhong and Second Aunt and said:

"Um, Dad, Mom, my wife didn't come."

"I'll go buy dinner for you two elders."

Liu Haizhong glanced up at Liu Guangtian and said nothing.

Liu Guangfu said with a fake smile:

"Hey, second brother, let's each chip in half."

"This counts as...... filial piety, filial piety, filial piety, ah."

Hearing that, Liu Haizhong and Second Aunt couldn't help exchanging a glance.

Both of them furrowed their brows.

They know their two sons too well.

It's impossible for them to be that filial toward them.

They're definitely not holding back anything good.

Or they're being insincere.

Liu Guangfu glanced at them, then suddenly walked out quickly.

Liu Guangtian stared for a moment, then also followed them out.

After they left, Liu Haizhong gave a cold snort, slammed his water cup onto the table with a "pa" sound, and said:

"They've slipped away."

Second Aunt furrowed her brow and said:

"No way?"

"What they said sounds really true."

"Besides."

"We have to check whether that fool Shazhu is telling the truth or lying."

"I think buying the rice is true."

Liu Haizhong gave a cold snort and said angrily:

"I won't eat their rice."

After saying that, he stood up; Second Aunt hurriedly helped him up and asked:

"Well, what are you going to do?"

Liu Haizhong pointed outside and said:

"I, I'm going to eat Shazhu's portion."

Second Aunt furrowed her brows even tighter, "Shazhu's portion?"

"But Shazhu took it all back."

Liu Haizhong walked out while saying:

"What are you talking about? Shazhu would never give the food originally meant for us to someone else."

"It's definitely waiting for us at home."

"Come on, don't overthink it; we need to be happy now."

Second Aunt happily said: "Hehe, that's great, you really learned it."

"Well, you go first; I'll go later."

"Walk slowly."

On the other side.

Xu Damao and Yu Haitang were still discussing.

When Xu Damao said the house was sold and the proceeds would be given to Yu Haitang one‑third, she couldn't help jumping up, pointing at Xu Damao, and shouting:

"Xu Damao, you're dreaming!"

"No way!"

Xu Damao gave a cold snort, moved closer to Yu Haitang, and said:

"If there's no way, just jump out the window."

Yu Haitang stepped back half a pace, slapped the table, pointed at Xu Damao, and said:

"Xu Damao, now it's you who made the mistake, not me."

"It's you who went out and found a woman; the responsibility is entirely yours."

"What gives you the right to give me only one‑third?"

Xu Damao: "How fresh."

"This house belongs half to my mother."

Hearing that, Yu Haitang couldn't help but snort and said:

"Get lost, stop spouting nonsense here."

"And what about your mother's share? Why don't you mention your grandparents' share?"

Xu Damao said with a sullen face:

"No, are you really itching for a fight?"

"Is this how you insult people?"

Yu Haitang: "Am I insulting people?"

"I said your grandparents are insulting people?"

"Xu Damao, if you say that, then I'm the one insulting people, ah."

"I'm insulting you—what of it?"

Xu Damao flew into a rage; if it were before, he would have already laid hands on Yu Haitang.

But.

Now Yu Haitang actually said she'd sue him in court, which also puts him in a bind.

Yu Haitang is no longer what she used to be; she now knows how to use the law to protect her rights.

Besides.

He also doesn't want to completely break with Yu Haitang.

No matter what, the property deed is still in Yu Haitang's hands.

He knows Yu Haitang all too well.

If we truly force Yu Haitang into a corner, Yu Haitang can do anything.

By then, everything will already be too late.
