Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

Lin Geng smiled and replied: "This is actually the greed of human nature and the bad nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong. There is nothing to be angry about! After all, they didn't succeed in the end, and they all paid a heavy price for it!

I am not someone who can be bullied easily. Since they all want to kill me, I won’t be polite to them!

I know that some of them spread the news everywhere, saying that I don’t respect the elderly and love the young, that I like to beat people, that I don’t unite my neighbors, that I have no love, and that I am greedy!

But this is their retribution!

I didn't let any of those who bullied me go. The old hag Jia Zhang next door is still eating sand in the northwest! I sent her son to the police station and detained him for a week. He died in an accident on the first day he returned to work.

Yi Zhonghai, the uncle who helped the Jia family bully me, was also sent to prison by me. He was sentenced to twenty years and hanged himself in prison.

There is also the Liu family who wanted to take my work position. I extorted 1,500 yuan from them. Their son couldn't find a job after graduating from a technical secondary school, so he applied to go to the Northwest and escaped from his parents. The second uncle, Liu Haizhong, is now in a very bad shape in the factory. He does hard labor in the workshop every day and doesn't have enough to eat at noon.

His other two sons have severed ties with the couple and have now become my little followers, following my lead. Do you think he feels aggrieved?

The deaf old lady who stood up for these beasts in the backyard has now suffered a stroke due to anger. She is now paralyzed on one side and can only lie at home. I haven't seen her for a long time. I guess she is living a life worse than death now!

And the widow Qin next door, who only thinks about getting something for nothing every day, and tries every way to use her beauty to seduce men and take advantage of others. As a result, her dog has been pulled to my side and has become my good brother. He is no longer willing to help her. Now her reputation in the yard is so bad that she has become a stinking dog shit that no one wants to touch.

So there is nothing to be angry about. Sometimes when you do too many bad things, you will eventually get your comeuppance. This is their comeuppance!"

After hearing about the fate of those beasts who bullied Lin Geng, Lou Xiao'e felt much better. She looked at Lin Geng with admiration, gave him a thumbs up and said, "You are really awesome! That's how you should deal with them! Who made them so bad?"

The two of them walked around Houhai for a long time. The more Lou Xiao'e looked at Lin Geng, the more she liked him. So she finally found a place where no one was around, mustered up all her courage, and suddenly said to Lin Geng with a red face: "Lin Geng, I like you!"

Lin Geng was shocked when he heard Lou Xiao'e suddenly say such words to him and confess her love to him on the spot. Although he had seen in the TV series that Lou Xiao'e was a straightforward person who dared to love and hate, he did not expect that Lou Xiao'e would be so brave and could confess her love to him so generously and tell him in person that she liked him.

This made Lin Geng quite surprised and flattered at the same time. At the same time, his face turned red. He was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

In fact, Lin Geng had developed a liking for Lou Xiao'e since he first saw her. Lou Xiao'e's appearance, temperament, personality and even figure all fit his aesthetic taste. Except for a little bit of her spoiled daughter's temper, her innocence and romance were not in line with this era, but more in line with Lin Geng's way of thinking.

So even though Lin Geng knew that there would not be a good outcome between him and Lou Xiao'e, he couldn't stop liking Lou Xiao'e a little.

However, because of the times, he is well aware that there is a chasm between him and Lou Xiao'e. It's not that someone is preventing them from being together now, but even if they are together, they are destined not to go far. Once the wind blows, no one can protect Lou Xiao'e and her family. Their only way out is to go to Hong Kong to avoid this storm sweeping the country.

Now there are only two years left before the storm starts. Even if he and Lou Xiao'e get together, they can only be together for two years. After that, no matter whether he is reluctant or not, he must let the Lou family go to Hong Kong to avoid this storm. By then, he and Lou Xiao'e will go their separate ways.

While walking and chatting with Lou Xiao'e, Lin Geng had thought about whether it would be possible for him to go to Hong Kong with the Lou family if he and Lou Xiao'e got together.

But after thinking about it, Lin Geng rejected this idea. The reason was very simple. If he followed the Lou family to Hong Kong, it would undoubtedly be a smear on the father of the original owner of his body.

Since he inherited this body, he has the responsibility to protect the honor of the original owner of this body. The original owner's father died for his country and was a hero. If he ran away with the Lou family, then the reputation of the original owner's father as a hero would be tarnished. He cannot be so selfish.

Another thing is that he is getting along well with the old Liu couple now, and Aunt Zhang treats him like her own child. If he runs away with the Lou family, it will not be clear whether it will implicate the old Liu couple, but at least it will make them very disappointed and sad.

After much thought, Lin Geng finally decided that he should not be so selfish. The best way was not to bear such consequences and not to have anything happen between him and Lou Xiao'e.

So Lin Geng looked at Lou Xiao'e and said with some emotion: "Sister Xiao'e, thank you for thinking so highly of me! But I'm afraid I have to say sorry to you!"

After Lou Xiao'e mustered up the courage to say that she liked Lin Geng, her face turned red with shame and she quickly lowered her head. Her heart was pounding and she didn't dare to look at Lin Geng's face again, but in her heart she was waiting for Lin Geng's response with great anticipation.

But when she heard Lin Geng say sorry, Lou Xiao'e's pretty face turned pale and she suddenly raised her head and looked at Lin Geng.

The reason why she had the courage to express her love to Lin Geng just now was because when she was walking and chatting with Lin Geng today, she also felt that Lin Geng seemed to like her. Women's intuition is often very sharp. Lou Xiao'e was very sure that Lin Geng also liked her, so she had the courage to express her love to Lin Geng just now.

However, she did not expect that the answer she got was just an apology, which made Lou Xiao'e feel as if a basin of cold water was poured over her head. She stood there in a daze, feeling very cold in her heart. When she raised her head to look at Lin Geng, her beautiful eyes were immediately filled with tears, blocking her sight.

Lin Geng looked at Lou Xiao'e's pretty face, and her expression of shock and disappointment. He was suddenly at a loss. For a moment, he didn't know how to comfort her. He wanted to reach out and wipe the tears rolling down her eyes, but he felt it was inappropriate, so he hurriedly said: "Sister Xiao'e, listen to me! That's not what I meant! I..."

Lou Xiao'e smiled bitterly, sniffed, and said in a crying voice: "Do you think I'm older than you?"

Lin Geng quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no! Don't misunderstand Sister Xiao'e!"

Lou Xiao'e's self-esteem was hit by a thousand points of critical damage. At this moment, she was as hopeless as death. She said self-deprecatingly: "So you just look down on me! I was just being sentimental! I'm sorry, I was so presumptuous just now! Then I'll go home first!"

After saying that, Lou Xiao'e turned and left. As she turned around, tears suddenly streamed down her face and she almost cried out loud.

Lin Geng saw that Lou Xiao'e was severely hit by his rejection, and his heart softened. He took two quick steps and grabbed Lou Xiao'e's wrist, saying to her, "Sister Xiao'e, don't leave in a hurry. Listen to my explanation first!"

"What else is there to explain? I already understand. Don't you think that the blow to me is not enough?" Lou Xiao'e refused to look back and wiped her tears with her hands.
