Chapter 134: The Probe Ends, Qin Huairu Looks for Trouble

~15 min read 2,925 words

Accompanied by a cry for help, a figure came running from the alley toward He Yuzhu at the alley entrance.

The person who arrived was a beautiful woman with a figure even more overbearing than Qin Huairu's; her towering "granaries" were bouncing up and down due to her rapid running.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu ground his teeth. Good fellow, they had investigated him thoroughly and knew he used to be infatuated with Qin Huairu's figure and appearance, so they specifically found someone even more beautiful than Qin Huairu to probe him.

However, young lady, could you please hide the excitement on your face a little?

"Big Brother, help! Someone is acting like a hooligan!" The person quickly ran in front of He Yuzhu, grabbed his arm, and hid behind him, while her "granary" heights inadvertently brushed against He Yuzhu's arm.

Shortly after, two large, burly men came charging over. He Yuzhu couldn't help but look up; there was no helping it, these two men were too tall, a full head taller than He Yuzhu.

"Kid, this is none of your business, get lost!" one of the burly men shouted angrily.

"Grandson! Who do you think you're scaring!" He Yuzhu shielded the girl behind him and shouted in a deep voice.

"Oh, looks like we've hit a tough nut. I just don't know if your mouth is tougher, or my knife is!" After saying this, the burly man pulled a knife from his pocket, performed a flourish with it, and said coldly.

The other burly man picked a brick from the wall, split it in half with a single punch, then raised his fist and said coldly: "Ever seen a fist the size of a sand pot?"

"No," He Yuzhu said calmly.

"If you haven't seen it, then get lost!" The burly man looked down at He Yuzhu from a height, cast a look of extreme disdain at him, and roared angrily.

"Who are you looking down on? Which man in Sijiucheng isn't a real man?!" He Yuzhu felt he had been greatly insulted. He pushed away the woman who was clutching him, stepped forward, stared at the two burly men with eyes full of fury, and roared: "If you want me to get lost, I'll get lost!"

After roaring, He Yuzhu turned and left decisively, exiting the alley in two or three steps.

The three of them couldn't help but be dumbfounded, standing there blankly for a moment before coming to their senses.

"This... he just left? He was so angry just now, I thought he was going to beat me up? I was already prepared for a fight, and that's it?" said the brick-splitting man.

"So, do we keep acting?" said the man with the knife.

The woman with the overbearing figure was also dumbfounded; she had never seen someone run away so righteously, and shout their slogans with such a sense of justification.

"Keep acting. No matter what, this is a mission. It only counts as finished when he returns to the Siheyuan," the woman with the overbearing figure said helplessly.

"Help! Someone, help! Someone is acting like a hooligan..." the woman with the overbearing figure shouted listlessly.

There was no other way; since the person had left, the woman with the overbearing figure could only perform as if she were going through the motions.

"Go ahead and scream, scream all you want. Even if you scream until your throat breaks, no one will come to save you," the man with the knife said just as listlessly, hoping in his heart that this play would end sooner.

Suddenly, the woman with the overbearing figure's pupils constricted. "Whoosh—whoosh—" two sounds of breaking air whistled toward the back of the two burly men's heads.

The two burly men were clearly veterans of many battles; sensing the wind behind their heads, they immediately ducked to avoid it. The woman with the overbearing figure also pretended to be startled and crouched down, avoiding the brick attack.

"Kid, you've got guts, daring to come back," the brick-splitting man said in a deep voice, his eyes flashing with malice.

"It's not that I wanted to come back, it's that you called me back," He Yuzhu suddenly said.

"When did we call you back?" the brick-splitting man asked, stunned and surprised.

"Just now, didn't you say, 'Go ahead and scream, scream all you want. Even if you scream until your throat breaks, no one will come to save you'?" He Yuzhu asked with a straight face.

"Yeah, I said that. What does that have to do with you?" the brick-splitting man said.

"I am 'Throat-Breaks'. You called me, so I came back," He Yuzhu said, still in a serious tone.

"What the hell?" The brick-splitting man was dumbfounded.

"I mean, my name is Throat-Breaks," He Yuzhu said.

"Nonsense, how can anyone in this world have the surname 'Throat'?" the brick-splitting man asked, confused.

The man with the knife on the side rolled his eyes. He Yuzhu was clearly making fun of them, yet his companion still hadn't realized it.

The woman with the overbearing figure, crouching by the wall, hugged her arms, buried her head in her arms, and her body trembled.

It wasn't out of fear, but from laughter. When He Yuzhu said his name was Throat-Breaks, the woman with the overbearing figure had broken her composure.

The following dialogue made her laugh silently and wildly, but since they were in the middle of acting, she couldn't let it show. The woman with the overbearing figure could only do this, fearing she would give herself away.

The woman with the overbearing figure endured it very hard, fearing she would laugh out loud.

The brick-splitting man finally reacted and couldn't help but curse angrily: "Damn it, you're actually making fun of your grandfather."

After saying this, the brick-splitting man was about to step forward to beat He Yuzhu. At the same time, the man with the knife also stepped forward quickly, intending to beat He Yuzhu up. There was no other reason; He Yuzhu was too despicable, daring to provoke them like this. If they didn't beat him up, they couldn't vent the anger in their hearts.

"Good men, spare my life!" Seeing the two closing in, He Yuzhu quickly covered his head with his hands, acting aggrieved, and shouted loudly.

The two couldn't help but be stunned and stopped their footsteps. Their superiors' orders were only to probe He Yuzhu's character, to see if he would stand by and watch someone die, not to beat He Yuzhu up severely.

Now that He Yuzhu had passed their audit, just as the two were hesitating, He Yuzhu made his move.

"Monkey Steals the Peach!" He Yuzhu roared, his hands forming claws, striking at their vital points with the speed of lightning.

"Ah! Ah!" The two let out hysterical screams in unison.

After the sneak attack succeeded, He Yuzhu didn't let go; instead, he exerted force with his hands and gave a hard twist.

"Ow!" The two let out another set of earth-shattering, miserable screams in unison.

He Yuzhu didn't stop there, but continued his assault.

"Monkey steals the peach again!"

"Monkey still steals the peach!"

"Monkey continues to steal the peach!"

"Monkey just steals the peach!"

"Monkey steals the peach once more!"

"Monkey steals the peach again!"

"Monkey just steals the peach!"

"Monkey fiercely steals the peach!"

"Monkey still steals the peach!"………………

Under He Yuzhu's precise and vicious attacks, the two burly men didn't even have the strength to scream. The extreme pain caused their mouths to open wide, yet they couldn't emit a single sound. Veins popped out on their faces, and their entire bodies curled up on the ground.

Alas, He Yuzhu just held on tight and wouldn't let go.

Just as the two were about to faint and the woman with the overbearing figure was about to reveal her identity, He Yuzhu let go.

"Run, why don't you!" After saying this, He Yuzhu grabbed the woman with the overbearing figure and prepared to run.

"Grandson, if you're a man, leave your name!" The man with the knife endured the pain and roared, word by word.

"I am one who does not change his name when walking, nor his surname when sitting. My name is Xu Damao, a projectionist at the Rolling Mill," He Yuzhu said frankly.

The woman with the overbearing figure couldn't help but roll her eyes: "You are clearly He Yuzhu, yet you pin the blame on Xu Damao. The key is that you do it so righteously. Xu Damao must have had eight lifetimes of bad luck to know you."

"Big Brother, let's run quickly. If we wait for them to recover, we won't be able to run," the woman with the overbearing figure said, seeing He Yuzhu looking around.

"It's fine, little sister, don't be afraid. They won't recover for a while. Brother will give them another hard one." He Yuzhu picked up a wooden stick from the ground and walked quickly toward the two curled up on the ground.

"You... what do you want to do?" Seeing the sinister smile and malicious look on He Yuzhu's face, the man with the knife was shocked and asked, losing his voice.

"Let you enjoy my, Xu Damao's, famous signature move: Millennium Kill!" After saying this, He Yuzhu used the wooden stick to fiercely poke the man with the knife's chrysanthemum.

Then, a miserable scream rang out in the alley, followed immediately by another miserable scream.

The woman with the overbearing figure couldn't help but tremble all over at this tragic scene, fearing He Yuzhu would do the same to her.

"What are you dazed for? Run quickly, go to the police station to report the case!" After saying this, He Yuzhu pulled the woman with the overbearing figure and headed straight for the police station.

"Big Brother Xu, thank you. If it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened to me," the woman with the overbearing figure said.

"I'm not Xu Damao. I was lying to them just now. My name is Yan Jiecheng," He Yuzhu said without changing his expression or skipping a beat.

Hearing this, the woman with the overbearing figure's face turned black: "You lied just now, and you're lying again now. Your psychological quality is too good. You can lie without changing your expression or skipping a beat, and make it sound so real. If I hadn't read your file in advance, I'm afraid I would have been led into the ditch by you."

The play had reached this point, so they could only continue acting. After He Yuzhu and the woman arrived at the police station, the woman with the overbearing figure quickly reported the case.

What followed was none of He Yuzhu's business. However, when it came time for He Yuzhu to make a statement, He Yuzhu firmly refused.

"It's not that I'm not cooperating with you, but doing this doesn't comply with regulations. If I am to make a statement, my direct superior, the labor union leader, and the factory office leaders must be present. Have you forgotten what happened these past few days?" He Yuzhu asked.

The officer in charge of taking the statement was dumbfounded. How could they forget what happened in the last two days? However, this wasn't a bad thing; it was a good thing. Why was it like this even for a good thing?

In the end, the person in charge reported it to Station Chief Zhang. The woman with the overbearing figure took advantage of the moment He Yuzhu wasn't paying attention, showed her work ID, and explained a few words.

Station Chief Zhang suddenly realized, then waved his hand and let He Yuzhu leave. He Yuzhu didn't take any chances either, dusted off his butt, and went home.

As soon as He Yuzhu returned home, he saw Qin Huairu sitting at the door waiting for him.

"Pillar, you're back?" Qin Huairu said, while looking behind He Yuzhu, wanting to see if He Yuzhu had brought a lunch box.

"Qin Huairu, please address me by my title," He Yuzhu said coldly.

"My Director He, we're already home, why are you still playing this game with your sister? You're being too distant. Pillar, didn't you bring a lunch box back?" Qin Huairu asked with some disappointment.

Clearly, Qin Huairu also knew that He Yuzhu was cooking a special meal today, but she didn't expect He Yuzhu to return empty-handed. In the past, whenever he cooked a special meal, He Yuzhu would always return with the lunch box full.

"Lunch box? What lunch box? My lunch box is at the factory," He Yuzhu said.

"Pillar, it's one thing to play tricks on Third Uncle, but why play tricks on your sister? You know what your sister is asking. There was a reception for leaders today, didn't you get any leftovers?" After saying this, Qin Huairu leaned close to He Yuzhu and started poking and prodding him, wanting to see where He Yuzhu had hidden the lunch box.

"Qin Huairu, stop it! What leftovers? That is public food. As a leader of the Rolling Mill, how could I do something like undermining the factory's foundation? Don't say such things in the future," He Yuzhu said in a deep voice.

"Pillar, your sister knows you have to set an example now that you're a leader, but my family is having such a hard time. Can you help your sister..." Qin Huairu started her crying-misery mode.

He Yuzhu couldn't help but smack his lips. Although Qin Huairu was inferior to the woman with the extremely overbearing figure in terms of hardware and software conditions, Qin Huairu's performance was real. Her expressions were extremely on point, and tears fell as soon as she wanted them to.

Qin Huairu really went to the wrong place. She shouldn't have gone to the Rolling Mill, but to a place like an art troupe. Unfortunately, her conditions didn't meet the requirements, and that kind of place wasn't somewhere you could just go if you wanted to.

"That's not right, isn't the rationing slowly recovering now?" He Yuzhu sneered.

Thanks to He Yuzhu playing Batman, and thanks to those old black guys kicking the bucket one after another, the higher-ups made adjustments, and now rationing is slowly recovering everywhere.

As long as they hold on through this period, this season's grain harvest will be a bumper one, and the rationing will be fully restored.

"Pillar, you don't run a household, so you don't know. Growing boys eat their fathers out of house and home. Bang Geng eats too much," Qin Huairu said sadly.

"Then let him eat less. If he cries of hunger, just beat him twice," He Yuzhu said indifferently.

It wasn't that Qin Huairu's family couldn't get enough to eat; they wanted to be full and eat well. They even complained that cornmeal buns scratched their throats. Looking at the entire Rolling Mill, only section-level leaders and above could eat white flour steamed buns. Even the Canteen Director, Niu Fen, didn't necessarily eat white flour steamed buns every day.

Of course, the difficulty was temporary. After getting through this period, Canteen Director Niu Fen would be able to eat white flour steamed buns every day.

Qin Huairu was dumbfounded. She didn't expect He Yuzhu to say that. Just as Qin Huairu was about to speak again, He Yuzhu directly interrupted what she was about to say.

"Sister Qin, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. If you really can't go on, you can go to the Avengers," He Yuzhu suddenly said.

"Can the Avengers help me?" Qin Huairu asked, surprised.

Although Qin Huairu had been in contact with the Avengers, for Qin Huairu, the Avengers were still a high-and-mighty behemoth. Ordinary people instinctively didn't want to go to the Avengers. After all, no matter what, the Avengers were still a government office. Qin Huairu instinctively didn't want to deal with the Avengers.

"Help! They will definitely help!" He Yuzhu said decisively.

"Really? Will the Avengers... lend me grain? Do I have to pay it back?" Qin Huairu asked.

"The Avengers will definitely help you, but not in that way. The Avengers might lend you grain, but you must pay it back. If you don't pay it back, they will notify the Rolling Mill, convert the grain you borrowed into money, and then deduct it from your salary."

"The help I'm talking about is helping you fundamentally. Sister Qin, aren't you claiming that you're having a hard time and can't go on? The Avengers can help you remarry. You can let the Avengers find you a partner."

"If you're afraid that your children will be abused in their new home, you can take in a live-in son-in-law. Of course, you can also find someone who is infertile and has no heirs. That way, you don't have to worry about Bang Geng and the others being bullied."

"This is the real solution. You should think about it carefully." After saying this, He Yuzhu returned to his room, locked the door, and stopped worrying about matters outside the window.

Qin Huairu was stunned, and it took her a long time to come to her senses.

If Jia Zhangshi were here, she would definitely jump out and make a scene. Unfortunately, Jia Zhangshi was not here.

Suddenly, Qin Huairu widened her eyes and reacted sharply. Jia Zhangshi was coming back soon.
