Siheyuan: Sap is the last word

Chapter 383 Memories are always the same

He Yudong: "Yes, the memories of my childhood are always so beautiful. This bunch of candied haws on a stick is my congratulations for paying your tuition. I hope your studies will go well in the future."

Little Huaihua: "Thank you, I really appreciate it. After paying the tuition, I feel a lot more relaxed. If I have any difficulties in the future, I will definitely ask you for advice."

He Yudong: "Of course, we are classmates at the same school, so we should help each other. If you have any questions, just ask me and I will try my best to help you."

Little Huaihua: "Okay, thank you for your help. You will study computer science and I will study design. Maybe we can work together on some interesting projects."

He Yudong: "This is a good idea. Cross-disciplinary cooperation can bring more innovation. I believe we will have many common topics and interests."

Xiao Huaihua: "Yes, it will definitely happen. If we work together, the future will be even more exciting."

He Yudong: "You are right, the future is full of infinite possibilities. With dreams and goals, we will be able to create a wonderful life of our own."

The two of them continued to taste the candied haws in their hands, and the streets gradually became quiet at night.

While He Yudong and Xiao Huaihua were immersed in their conversation and the delicious taste of candied haws, a strange man suddenly came over and stared hard at the items in Xiao Huaihua's hands.

Man: "Girl, hand over what you have, or don't blame me for being rude."

Little Sophora Flower turned pale with fright and tightly grasped the package in her hand.

He Yudong immediately realized the malevolence of this man, stood up, and said coldly: "Sir, what do you want to do? We are just enjoying the night here and don't want to cause trouble."

The man sneered: "Stop talking nonsense and hand over your things quickly, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences."

He Yudong stood there steadily and said to Little Sophora japonica: "Little Sophora japonica, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Xiao Huaihua nodded tremblingly and looked at He Yudong, seemingly asking for help.

He Yudong stared at the man calmly: "Since you want it so much, let's see if you have the ability to take it away."

The man sneered disdainfully: "Who do you think you are? Dare to meddle in my business?"

He Yudong took a deep breath and said deeply: "I just don't like to see people bullying the weak, especially girls. If you have the guts, just walk away."

The man obviously didn't expect He Yudong to say this, and he showed a trace of displeasure: "Humph, I see you are impatient with life!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man suddenly stretched out his hand to snatch the items in Xiao Huaihua's hand. However, He Yudong was already prepared. He quickly stopped the man's movements and subdued him to the ground.

He Yudong gasped and said to Xiao Huaihua: "Are you okay?"

Little Sophora japonica held He Yudong's arm tightly, her eyes full of gratitude and fright: "Thank you, He Yudong, if it weren't for you..."

He Yudong interrupted her: "It doesn't matter, as long as you are okay now. Let's go, don't stay here anymore."

Xiao Huaihua nodded, and the two quickly left the dangerous place, but He Yudong still felt a little uneasy in his heart. He knew that this was just the beginning.

He Yudong and Xiao Huaihua stayed away from that dangerous situation, but friends in the teahouse, including Qin Huairu, had noticed something unusual. They stood anxiously at the door of the teahouse, anxiously waiting for the return of He Yudong and Xiaohuaihua.

Qin Huairu: "Why haven't you come back for so long? Something is wrong here."

Xu Damao: "Yes, we just felt something strange. Why haven't they appeared yet?"

He Yuzhu: "Is there any accident? Should we go out and take a look?"

Yi Zhonghai: "Don't worry, maybe they just took a stroll and will be back soon."

Qin Huairu: "But the tense atmosphere just now..."

At this moment, He Yudong and Xiao Huaihua hurried back to the teahouse.

He Yudong: "Don't worry, everyone, we are fine."

Xiao Huaihua: "Yes, there was someone with evil intentions just now, but He Yudong stopped him."

Qin Huairu: "What? People with bad intentions? Are you okay?"

Xu Damao: "Tell us what happened. We are all worried to death."

He Yudong: "We met a malicious person on the road just now. He tried to rob Xiaohuaihua's things. I stopped him and we are fine now."

He Yuzhu: "It's too dangerous! Why didn't you tell us earlier?"

Yi Zhonghai: "But fortunately you are all safe. Now that the matter is over, don't worry about it anymore."

Xiao Huaihua: "Thank you for your concern. He Yudong really saved my life just now."

Qin Huairu: "It's true that young people should protect girls. But next time you encounter something like this, you must tell us first and don't make us worry."

He Yudong: "I'm sorry, I didn't consider everyone's feelings."

Xu Damao: "Fortunately, everything is fine. However, it seems that our courtyard is no longer so peaceful."

He Yuzhu: "Yes, such a big city is indeed not peaceful. We must be more careful and not take it lightly."

Yi Zhonghai: "However, it is precisely because of each other's care that we can live peacefully in this city."

Qin Huairu: "Yes, we are a big family and face various difficulties together. No matter what happens, everyone must help each other and tide over the difficulties together."

Under the lights of the teahouse, everyone discussed how to better protect themselves. In the warm atmosphere, they felt the warmth and unity of home.

In the teahouse, there was a tense atmosphere between Xiao Huaihua and her friends. Qin Huairu saw Xiao Huaihua with a slightly choked and frightened expression. She stepped forward and hugged Xiao Huaihua.

Qin Huairu: "Little Huaihua, what's wrong with you? What happened just now?"

Little Huaihua sobbed and tried to calm down: "Mom, I...I met a bad person, and he wanted to steal my things."

Qin Huairu's brows furrowed and she asked in a low voice, "Did it hurt you?"

Xiao Huaihua shook her head: "No, it was He Yudong who stopped him in time."

Qin Huairu put down the big stone in her heart, but she still had a serious look on her face: "Why did you run out alone in such a dangerous place?"

Little Huaihua: "I just wanted to walk around, but I didn't expect to meet that bad guy."

Qin Huairu took a deep breath and said with reproach in her tone: "Don't run around anymore, especially at such a late hour. Although we are in a courtyard here, the city is not safe at night."

Little Huaihua felt her mother's worry and seriousness, and she lowered her head: "I know, Mom. I will be more careful in the future."

Qin Huairu held the little Sophora japonica's hand tightly and said softly: "Good boy, mom is not blaming you, I'm just worried about your safety. Urban life is indeed different from rural life, we need to be more vigilant."

He Yudong stood aside, listening to their conversation, and felt the warmth and care of this family. He took the initiative and said: "Aunt Qin, I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of the little Sophora japonica."

Qin Huairu turned her head and looked at He Yudong: "Are you He Yudong? Thank you for your help just now. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what would have happened."

He Yudong shook his head modestly: "Auntie, you're welcome. I just fulfilled the responsibilities that a boy should fulfill."

Qin Huairu nodded, then pulled Xiao Huaihua: "Go back, we must be closer together now and take care of each other."

Xiao Huaihua nodded, and she glanced at He Yudong gratefully: "Thank you, He Yudong. Without you, I might..."

He Yudong waved his hand: "Stop talking about this, just hope everyone is fine. We must be more careful in the future and protect ourselves together."

The family returned to the courtyard, and He Yudong was also invited into the house. The teahouse was once again filled with a warm atmosphere.

In the courtyard, everyone's calm mood was once again broken by a shocking news. Jia Dongxu, a co-worker in the teahouse, had an incredible accident. He accidentally encountered a major accident in the factory and lost both legs.

There was a dull atmosphere in the teahouse, and everyone fell into silence. Jia Dongxu has always been one of them, and this news is a huge blow to everyone.

Qin Huairu: "How could this happen? Dongxu is a hard worker, how could he encounter such misfortune?"

Xu Damao: "It's so pitiful. I just had a few chats with him. Why did something like this happen?"

He Yuzhu: "How can this factory be so irresponsible? The safety measures can obviously be better."

Yi Zhonghai: "What should Dongxu's family do now? We should try our best to help them."

He Yudong listened silently, his heart filled with unspeakable pain. Suddenly, his thoughts returned to an accident in his hometown when he was a child. At that time, he witnessed workers being injured in the factory. Now, this scene appeared before his eyes again, making him feel an unbearable pain.

Little Sophora japonica couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "What's going on? How could such a terrible thing happen?"

He Yudong took a deep breath and tried to comfort everyone: "The most important thing now is to give Jia Dongxu the greatest support and help him adapt to his new life as soon as possible. We can organize some fundraisers to help him solve some of his life difficulties."

Qin Huairu: "Yes, you are right. Dongxu's family needs our help, we can't let them face all this alone."

Xu Damao: “We can petition communities and factories to improve factory safety standards to prevent similar accidents from happening again.”

He Yuzhu: "We are a team. In the face of difficulties, only by uniting as one and working together can we overcome everything."

Yi Zhonghai: "Yes, Jia Dongxu needs our support and care now. What we have to do is to help him rebuild his confidence and find a new direction in life."
