She was so emotional, she must have encountered some serious problem.

He Yushui took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, then she choked and said, "Brother Rufeng, I don't know what to do... My brother has been acting so strange recently, and I'm afraid he will really do something bad."

Chen Rufeng's heart sank. Sure enough, He Yushui also came because of Sha Zhu's matter. He couldn't help but feel heartbroken when he saw her anxious look. He Yushui had always been well-behaved and sensible, and had always been a popular girl in the courtyard, but now she had to suffer because of her brother's behavior.

"Yushui, don't be anxious. Tell me, what did Shazhu do recently that makes you so worried?" Chen Rufeng tried to make her relax with a gentle tone, his eyes full of concern.

He Yushui raised her head and glanced at Chen Rufeng, her eyes full of helplessness and fear. She bit her lip, as if she was hesitating whether she should tell Chen Rufeng everything. After a moment, she finally made up her mind and whispered, "My brother has been acting mysterious lately and always comes home very late at night. Sometimes when I ask him, he doesn't want to tell me. I'm afraid of him... I'm afraid he's got into some big trouble outside."

Hearing this, Chen Rufeng felt even more heavy-hearted. Sha Zhu's abnormal behavior had obviously alerted He Yushui, but she was powerless to change the situation and could only suffer in her heart. Chen Rufeng felt his heart was tied up in a ball. He understood that He Yushui did not participate in Sha Zhu's plan. She was just an innocent bystander, but now she had to bear the pressure that did not belong to her.

"Yushui, you did the right thing. It's important to pay attention to your brother's movements." Chen Rufeng responded in a calm tone, trying to comfort her. "Your brother did get into some trouble outside, but it's not your fault, and it's not something you can control."

He Yushui couldn't hold back her tears after hearing this. She covered her face and choked up, "Brother Rufeng, I really don't know what to do. I just hope he can be safe, but I feel like he's getting farther and farther away from me, more and more unfamiliar. I... I'm so scared, afraid that one day he'll do something irreparable."

Chen Rufeng felt pity for her when he saw her in so much pain. He knew that He Yushui was at her most vulnerable moment and what she needed was support and guidance, not blame or criticism. Chen Rufeng swore in his heart that he would do his best to help her get out of this fog and let her no longer bear such a heavy mental burden because of her brother's mistakes.

"Yushui, listen to me." Chen Rufeng gently held her hand, his eyes firm and warm, "You are not alone, we will all help you, and work together to find a way to get your brother back on track. You have to believe that things are not irreversible yet. As long as we work together, we will definitely make your brother understand that the path he is taking now is wrong."

When He Yushui heard Chen Rufeng's words, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes. She sobbed and nodded. Although tears were still flowing down her face, the helpless mood seemed to be relieved a little.

"Brother Rufeng, what should I do? I really don't want to see him continue like this." He Yushui's voice was pleading, as if he had grasped the last straw.

Chen Rufeng pondered for a moment and said softly, "Yushui, first of all, you have to stay calm. Although your brother is on the wrong path now, he is your family after all, and you are the only one who can really influence him. You should try to talk to him and tell him your concerns. Maybe he will listen."

He Yushui bit her lip, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, "But I'm afraid he won't want to listen to me, or even get angry."

Chen Rufeng understood her concerns and comforted her: "I know you are afraid that he will not accept it, but you should try to express your feelings. You can start from his perspective and tell him that you are just worried about his safety and don't want to see him in danger. If he really cares about you, he will definitely consider your feelings."

He Yushui was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, "I will try to talk to him, Brother Rufeng, thank you."

Chen Rufeng smiled and said, "You're welcome, Yushui. You have to remember that you still have us. Everyone in the courtyard will support you. Whenever you need help, feel free to come to me."

He Yushui nodded gratefully, and the worry on her face eased a little. She took a deep breath, stood up as if to encourage herself, and said softly: "Brother Rufeng, I will go back first. I will try my best to make him understand."

Chen Rufeng watched He Yushui leave, his heart still heavy. He knew that the difficulty He Yushui faced was not only to make Sha Zhu come back, but also to bear tremendous pressure on her heart. Her kindness and love for her brother made her fall into this painful struggle, which was exactly what Chen Rufeng was most unwilling to see.

In the dead of night, Chen Rufeng stood alone in front of the window, with He Yushui's tears and pain echoing in his mind. He knew that time was running out and Sha Zhu's actions would soon be put into practice. If he could not stop it in time, He Yushui would suffer a greater blow, and the peace of the courtyard would be completely broken.

"Shazhu, you have hurt too many people. I can't let you go on." Chen Rufeng made up his mind secretly. He knew that every next step was crucial, not only for the safety of the courtyard, but also for innocent and kind people like He Yushui.

The next morning, Chen Rufeng walked out of the house again, his steps were firm, and he had a clear plan in mind. He knew that time was running out, and he had to find Sha Zhu's weakness as soon as possible and give him a fatal blow at the most appropriate time.

Jia Dongxu took a puff of cigarette, thought for a moment, and said: "Actually, I think you can take it slow and don't invest too much energy and money at once. You can try to open a small-scale online store first to see the effect. If it works, then gradually expand it. I think what Jia Dongxu said makes sense. He can't rush it, but should try step by step to find the most suitable way for himself. He gradually came up with a rough plan in his mind: first choose a few specialty products in the store, especially those traditional snacks and some unique trinkets he made by hand, and try to open a small online store. This way, you won't take too much risk, and you can test the market's reaction. I decided to try to open a small-scale online store first." Chen Rufeng said in a firm tone, with a glimmer of expectation in his eyes, "If the effect is good, then slowly expand it later. "
