After Damao returned to the courtyard, Yang Limin was still busy. He frequently worked overtime, sometimes even staying up all night, which made Lou Xiao'e more and more worried about his health. One day, Yang Limin did not come home for several days in a row, which made Lou Xiao'e decide not to wait any longer. She wanted to find Yang Limin in person to make sure he was safe.

Lou Xiao'e decided to look for Yang Limin at a small hotel near the construction site she often visited. Before leaving the courtyard, she found the second uncle and said goodbye to him.

"Uncle, I decided to go look for Brother Limin. He hasn't come back for several days, and I'm worried about him." Lou Xiao'e said solemnly, with a determined look in her eyes.

The second uncle frowned slightly after hearing this, but soon nodded, "Xiao E, you did the right thing. Limin is working too hard, go find him and see if he needs help. Be careful on the road, and let us know when you get there."

Lou Xiao'e nodded gratefully, "Thank you, Uncle Er, I will take good care of myself."

She packed her luggage and set out on a journey to find Yang Limin. There were many small hotels near the construction site, and she carefully inquired in each one. As night fell and the streets were brightly lit, Lou Xiao'e inquired in each room, hoping to find Yang Limin's whereabouts.

"Hello, is Dr. Yang Liming staying here?" Lou Xiao'e asked at the front desk of a small hotel, with a hint of fatigue and anxiety in her voice.

The waiter shook his head and said, "Sorry, there is no such person."

Lou Xiao'e walked out of the hotel disappointedly, feeling increasingly anxious, but she did not give up and continued to walk to the next one. She silently said to herself, "Brother Limin, you must be safe."

Lou Xiao'e walked through every corner of the construction site, from one small hotel to another, and her steps became heavier. She was filled with worry about Yang Limin, but she knew she had to persevere.

Finally, at the door of an inconspicuous little hotel, she asked again: "Excuse me, does Dr. Yang Limin live here?"

The front desk clerk checked the records and nodded, "Yes, he lives in room 301. Are you his friend?"

Lou Xiao'e finally felt relieved. "Yes, I am his friend. Please take me to see him."

The waiter took her upstairs and knocked on the door of room 301. After a moment, the door opened and Yang Limin appeared at the door. When he saw Lou Xiao'e, his face showed surprise and joy.

"Xiao E, why are you here?" There was a hint of fatigue in Yang Liming's voice, but more of it was emotion.

"Brother Limin, I'm worried about you, so I came to see you." Lou Xiao'e said gently, her eyes full of concern.

Yang Limin was moved and held her hand. "Thank you, Xiao'e. I've been very busy at work recently, but I'm fine. Don't worry."

"Brother Limin, you have to take care of your health and not keep working so hard. We all care about you." Lou Xiao'e gently reproached, with deep worry in her eyes.

Yang Limin nodded and said with a smile: "I understand, Xiao'e. I will adjust my schedule and go back to see you more often. It's really hard for you to come all the way to see me."

"Brother Limin, as long as you are safe and healthy, all the hard work I put in is worth it." Lou Xiao'e's voice was firm and warm.

Yang Limin asked Lou Xiao'e to sit down and poured her a cup of hot tea. They sat in the small room and talked about the recent situation. Yang Limin talked about the busyness of the hospital and the condition of the patients, while Lou Xiao'e told him about the recent situation of the courtyard and how everyone missed him.

Life in Xu Damao's courtyard has returned to peace, and Yang Limin and Lou Xiao'e have also found peace of mind. Although Yang Limin's work is still busy, he tries to adjust his schedule and try to find time to return to the courtyard to accompany his father and neighbors. Every time he returns to the courtyard, he can always feel the deep warmth and love.

One weekend afternoon, Yang Limin decided to take Lou Xiaoe out for a walk to relax. They strolled along the city streets, enjoying a rare leisure time. The hawking of street vendors and the bustling crowds formed a vivid picture.

"Brother Liming, how long has it been since you went shopping so leisurely?" Lou Xiao'e asked with a smile, with a happy gleam in her eyes.

"It's been a long time indeed. I've been busy recently and haven't gotten out much. Today I have some time, so I'd like to go for a walk with you." Yang Liming replied with a smile, feeling particularly relaxed.

They walked and stopped along the way, enjoying the street snacks and scenery. Suddenly, Yang Limin's eyes were attracted by a familiar figure. At a roadside stall not far ahead, Xu Damao was busy greeting customers with a focused and serious look.

"Xu Damao?" Yang Limin asked in surprise, "Why is he here?"

Lou Xiao'e also saw Xu Damao, was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "It seems that he has opened a stall here, let's go and take a look."

They approached Xu Damao's stall and saw him selling fried skewers and snacks. When Xu Damao saw them, a surprised smile appeared on his face.

"Li Min, Lou Xiao'e, why are you here?" Xu Damao greeted them warmly, with a happy gleam in his eyes.

"We came out for a walk and didn't expect to meet you here." Yang Limin said with a smile, his eyes full of curiosity, "You opened a stall here?"

"Yes, I recently felt that I should do something, so I opened a small stall here, and the business is pretty good." Xu Damao said proudly with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Not bad, Damao, you seem to be working very hard." Lou Xiao'e said with a smile, her eyes full of approval.

"Thank you for your compliments. Come, I'll treat you to something to eat today and let you try my cooking." Xu Damao invited enthusiastically and began to prepare fried skewers for them.

Yang Limin and Lou Xiao'e sat at a small table next to the stall, watching Xu Damao's busy figure, and they were filled with satisfaction. They knew that Xu Damao had found his direction and his life had become fulfilling.

"Brother Limin, I think Xu Damao is very motivated. He will definitely be able to do this small stall very well." Lou Xiao'e said in a low voice, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes.

"Yes, Xiao'e, everyone has his own path. As long as you work hard, you can find your own direction." Yang Liming said with a smile, his heart full of confidence.

After a while, Xu Damao brought the hot fried skewers and placed them in front of them, "Come, try my cooking and see how it tastes."

Yang Liming and Lou Xiao'e picked up the fried skewers, took a bite, and couldn't help but exclaim at the crispy and delicious taste.

"Not bad, Damao, your craftsmanship is really great." Yang Liming praised, his eyes full of admiration.
