Siheyuan: Dongfang Bubai is in his arms, and all the beasts are eliminated

Yi Zhonghai stood aside quietly, knowing that now was not the time to confront Zhao Tianming. Zhao Tianming's emotions had reached their limit, and any dispute would only exacerbate his inner pain.

"Zhao Tianming, calm down." Yi Zhonghai tried to calm Zhao Tianming's emotions, "We must think calmly and find a way to solve the problem."

Zhao Tianming heard Yi Zhonghai's voice and slowly stopped what he was doing. He took a deep breath and tried to calm his anger. However, the anger was still churning in his heart, making him feel out of control.

"I don't know what to do." Zhao Tianming's voice was full of helplessness and struggle.

Yi Zhonghai walked over to Zhao Tianming and patted him on the shoulder. "We will find a solution together. Don't give up hope. We will always find a way to solve the problem."

With Yi Zhonghai's comfort, Zhao Tianming's emotions gradually calmed down. He looked at Yi Zhonghai with gratitude and smiled. At this time, Xu Damao came over and looked at Zhao Tianming and Yi Zhonghai with an apologetic look.

"Zhao Tianming, Mr. Yi, I'm sorry. I did exaggerate just now. I didn't expect to cause you so much trouble. I would like to treat you to a meal to express my apology and sincerity." Xu Damao said sincerely.

Zhao Tianming and Yi Zhonghai looked at each other and had a tacit understanding. Although Zhao Tianming was still dissatisfied, he did not want to let the matter continue to ferment. They all knew that accepting Xu Damao's apology was also to calm the dispute.

"Well, since Mr. Xu invites us so sincerely, let's go have dinner together." Yi Zhonghai said with a smile.

Zhao Tianming nodded. He knew that it was not appropriate to dwell on the past unhappiness at this time, but to look forward and find a solution to the problem. He hoped that through this dinner, they could eliminate the grudges between them and re-establish a friendly relationship.

Under a pavilion in the corner, Zhao Tianming saw a young woman playing the piano. Her long hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, and her eyes were clear and bright, as if they contained endless wisdom and tenderness. Her piano sound was clear and melodious, flowing like a spring, warming Zhao Tianming's heart.

"This is Qingmeilou, what can I do for you?" The woman raised her head and looked at Zhao Tianming with a smile, her voice clear and pleasant.

"I am a wandering scholar. I heard that this place is quiet, so I came here specially to visit." Zhao Tianming replied politely.

"Welcome to Qingmeilu. I am the host here, Qin Huairu." The woman said with a smile.

From that moment on, Zhao Tianming and Qin Huairu's acquaintance was like a spring breeze, and it gradually became better. They strolled in the courtyard, sharing each other's thoughts and emotions. Qin Huairu introduced the history and stories of this courtyard to Zhao Tianming, and Zhao Tianming also told her about his journey and mental journey.

In this courtyard, time seemed to have stopped. Zhao Tianming felt an unprecedented sense of ease and freedom, and the presence of Qin Huairu made this feeling even stronger. They played chess under the flowers, recited poems under the moon, and felt the good times together.

When Zhao Tianming and Qin Huairu were immersed in the tranquility of the courtyard, a stranger suddenly appeared in front of them. This stranger was tall, with a serious face, and his eyes revealed a sharpness that could not be ignored.

"Are you the new scholar?" the stranger asked, with a hint of caution in his tone.

Zhao Tianming's heart moved. He didn't expect that he had attracted other people's attention just after arriving here. "Yes, I am Zhao Tianming." He replied, trying to stay calm.

The stranger nodded and glanced around the courtyard. "I'm He Yuzhu, the security guard here," he introduced himself briefly.

"Guardian?" Zhao Tianming was slightly stunned. He did not expect that this seemingly peaceful courtyard would have such a guard.

He Yuzhu's eyes fell on Qin Huairu, and a trace of vigilance flashed across his eyes. "Who are you?" He turned to Qin Huairu, his tone slightly serious.

Qin Huairu smiled slightly, stood up and bowed to He Yuzhu. "I'm Qin Huairu, a member of this place."

He Yuzhu relaxed a little, but still remained alert. "I came to you because something happened recently." He began, "We have encountered some uninvited guests in this area recently, and they seem to be very interested in this place."

Hearing this, Zhao Tianming's heart moved, and he began to realize that this courtyard was indeed not so peaceful. "Uninvited guest?" he asked.

He Yuzhu nodded. "Yes, their origins are unknown, but their whereabouts are strange. I need your help to deal with this situation."

Zhao Tianming was shocked by He Yuzhu's reminder. He realized that his original intention of coming to this courtyard might have been disrupted by some unexpected circumstances. He took a deep breath and decided to face this challenge with Qin Huairu.

After they left He Yuzhu, Zhao Tianming began to think about how to deal with this situation. He knew he had to do something, but he felt powerless. His funds were running low, and he needed sufficient preparation and resources to fight against those uninvited guests.

So, he decided to go to Yi Zhonghai to borrow money. Yi Zhonghai was a wealthy businessman in the area. It was said that he had abundant funds to support many affairs in the town. Although Zhao Tianming was reluctant to borrow money from the rich, he knew that there was no better choice now.

Arriving at the gate of Yi Zhonghai's mansion, Zhao Tianming was quite nervous. He didn't know whether this wealthy businessman would be willing to lend money to a stranger who had just arrived. But he also knew that there was no time to hesitate.

"I'm Zhao Tianming, and I want to see Mr. Yi Zhonghai." He said to the servant at the door, with a hint of firmness in his tone.

The servant looked at Zhao Tianming briefly and nodded. "Please wait a moment." He turned and entered the mansion.

Zhao Tianming stood in front of the door, feeling uneasy. He didn't know whether his request would be granted this time, but he knew he had to try his best.

After a while, the servant appeared at the door again. "Mr. Yi Zhonghai agreed to see you, please come in," he said.

While Zhao Tianming was waiting in Yi Zhonghai's hall, he couldn't help thinking about the relationship between himself and Qin Huairu. Since he came to this courtyard, Qin Huairu was like a beam of warm light, illuminating the dark corners of his heart. Her beauty and intelligence deeply attracted Zhao Tianming, making him feel unprecedented happiness and satisfaction.
