Not long after, under Yu Haitang's guidance, the car finally arrived at the destination. Yu Li and Yu Haitang got out of the car happily, while Zhang Jianjun sat in the driver's seat motionless.

"Brother Jianjun, come down soon! Come to my house and have a seat!" Yu Haitang invited with a smile on his face.

"No, no, no! You guys go in, I have to drive back!" Zhang Jianjun responded as he was about to step on the accelerator. However, at this moment, Yu Haitang quickly reached out and stopped him.

"Just get off the car! What's the big deal about just saying hello and meeting my parents? Please!" Yu Haitang pouted her lips and started to use her secret weapon of acting coquettishly and cutely.

"Well... okay! Then I'll go visit my uncle and aunt." Faced with such a plea, Zhang Jianjun was helpless and had to pull out the car key, push open the car door and walked out.

"That's great! We are colleagues after all. It's normal for you to come to our house and sit for a while." Yu Haitang was overjoyed. She immediately put her arm around Zhang Jianjun's arm and couldn't wait to take him home.

"Hey, Haitang, what are you doing? We're already at the doorstep, don't be so out of touch with the times, you have to pay attention to the consequences!" Seeing this, Yu Li hurriedly stopped him.

"Oh... okay then!" Although Yu Haitang was unwilling, she still let go of her hand reluctantly.

At this moment, Yu Haitang's parents were sitting around the table enjoying dinner. When they saw their daughter coming back, they immediately smiled and asked, "Haitang, have you eaten? Why did your sister come back with you? Is the person next to you your boyfriend?"

Yu Haitang immediately smiled and replied, "Mom, I ate it! This is my colleague Zhang Jianjun, who works as a technical consultant at the steel mill."

Zhang Jianjun immediately greeted them with a smile: "Hello, uncle and aunt!"

"Hello!"

After saying hello, Yu Haitang's father, Yu Chaoyang, touched his head and asked in confusion: "What is the position of technical consultant? Why haven't I heard of it? By the way, what happened to your sister? Did she have a fight with your brother-in-law?"

Yu Haitang explained excitedly: "Dad! You don't understand since you are not a worker. A technical consultant is better than an eighth-level worker. Brother Jianjun's monthly salary is over a hundred now."

Yu Haitang's parents opened their mouths in surprise when they heard this: "How much? Over a hundred? Oh my God! This kid doesn't look more than 20 years old, how come his salary is so high?"

Yu Haitang said proudly, "Yes! Brother Jianjun is only one month older than me, but he is very capable and drives a Rolls-Royce."

Seeing how capable Zhang Jianjun was, Yu Chaoyang didn't bother to ask about Yu Li's situation. He just took Zhang Jianjun's hand and asked with a smile.

"Jianjun! How many people are there in your family? Are you married? What do you think of my Yu Haitang?"

Zhang Jianjun had no choice but to answer awkwardly: "I am the only one in my family. My parents are both dead, and I just got married a few days ago."

Yu Chaoyang heard what Zhang Jianjun said, and a trace of disappointment flashed across his face: "Oh! So that's the case. Have you eaten? I'll ask your aunt to make it for you."

Yu Haitang said excitedly, "We've eaten! Brother Jianjun took me and my sister to Quanjude to eat roast duck, and we ordered a duck and eight dishes!"

Yu's mother frowned and said reproachfully, "You are becoming more and more outrageous. How could you let Jianjun treat you to such an expensive place? How much does a meal at Quanjude cost?"

Zhang Jianjun smiled and waved his hand, took out a pack of unopened Huazi from his pocket and put it on the table: "It didn't cost much. Uncle, I came here in a hurry today. The supply and marketing cooperative is closed. I have a pack of cigarettes here for you to keep!"

When Yu Chaoyang saw the cigarettes, he couldn't stop laughing: "How can this be so embarrassing? You treated my two daughters to a meal and sent them home. How can I accept your things?"

Yu Haitang smiled and said, "Dad, just accept it! Brother Jianjun is a very nice person. Besides, he is not short of money. When he got married, he received hundreds of thousands of gifts."

Yu's father and mother were already numbed by the shock. They stood there in a daze, not saying a word for a long time.

"Okay! Stop talking about me. It's time to talk to your parents about serious matters. Give the 80 yuan betrothal gift that Brother Zhuzi gave you to your parents!" Zhang Jianjun quickly changed the subject.

"Oh! I would have forgotten if you hadn't told me." Yu Haitang immediately took out the eighty yuan that Sha Zhu gave her from her pocket.

"This... Jianjun, aren't you married? Why are you giving my daughter another gift?" Yu Chaoyang looked at the eight big unity cards in front of him, not knowing whether to accept them or not.

"Uncle, what are you thinking about? I introduced a guy to your daughter today. This is the betrothal money he gives to you." Zhang Jianjun explained with a smile.

"So that's it! You scared me! Who did you introduce to Haitang?" Yu Chaoyang took the money and asked with a smile.

"The person I introduced to Haitang is my neighbor who I grew up with. His name is He Yuzhu. He works as a chef at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. He is an honest and decent man. He is a good choice!" Zhang Jianjun strongly recommended the advantages of Sha Zhu to Yu Haitang's parents.

"So that's it! Jianjun, we believe in your vision, so why didn't he come today?" Yu Chaoyang asked curiously.

"Well...this!" Zhang Jianjun hesitated, finding it difficult to speak.

Seeing this, Yu Li immediately explained: "Yan Jiecheng and I had a quarrel today. We are going to divorce. He Yuzhu didn't come today because of this!"

After hearing what his daughter said, Yu Chaoyang slammed the table in anger and shouted, "What's going on? Are you having an affair with that guy named He Yuzhu?"

Yu Li's face immediately darkened, and he said angrily, "Dad! What nonsense are you talking about? He Yuzhu and Yu Haitang went on a blind date today, and they cooked a table full of delicious dishes. I wanted to eat some together, but I don't know what's wrong with Yan Jiecheng. He insisted that I go home with him. I said I would go back after dinner, and he hit me. Look at my face?!"

Yu Li then recounted in detail how she had been treated in the Yan family and what had happened recently.

"Damn it! This brat actually dared to hit my daughter. He's so bold. With all the things they have to do in their family, why does he have to care about Jia Dongxu's life and death? Now there are two more burdens!" Yu Chaoyang became more and more angry as he spoke, and he stood up from the chair.

"Dad, where are you going? Calm down!" Yu Li grabbed her father.

"What else can I do! Divorce must be made! I'm going to teach him a lesson right now." Yu Chaoyang said and was about to walk out.

"Dad! It's so late today, it's not too late to go tomorrow. Besides, there's no need to fight with him. At worst I can just divorce him!" Yu Li hurriedly spoke up to stop him.

"Don't stop me. I have to go today and teach Yan Jiecheng a lesson." Yu Chaoyang was so angry that he insisted on going out of the house.

Zhang Jianjun also smiled when he saw this. He felt very happy that Yan Bugui's family was upset. "It's okay! I'll drive Uncle there and let him stay at my house at night. I have several rooms at home anyway."

"Listen! Jianjun supports me in doing this. Why don't you come with me, Yu Li? I will bring the household registration book with me and go to divorce Yan Jiecheng early tomorrow morning." Yu Chaoyang still didn't give up. He had to teach Yan Jiecheng a lesson today.

"Okay! Brother Jianjun, do you have so many rooms in your house? Can my dad and I live there?" Seeing that her father insisted, Yu Li could only nod in agreement.

"Don't worry! I have plenty of rooms. Shazhu's family has two rooms, Second Uncle Liuhai's two rooms, plus my own three rooms. I have a total of seven rooms in the courtyard." Zhang Jianjun counted them on his fingers.

"So many? I didn't expect that Jianjun, you actually bought so many houses?" Yu Li said in surprise.

"Let's go! It's getting late. Sister Yu Li, please take your household registration book with you and let's set off now!" Zhang Jianjun urged.

Five minutes later, Zhang Jianjun, Yu Chaoyang and Yu Li got into the car, which drove towards No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.

"Jianjun, how much did your car cost?" Yu Chaoyang said with envy as he sat in the passenger seat.

"My apprentice gave it to me. I don't know the exact amount, probably tens of thousands of yuan!" Zhang Jianjun answered with a smile while driving.

Soon the car arrived at the courtyard. Sha Zhu was worried and kept waiting at the door. As soon as Zhang Jianjun's car arrived, he got up anxiously.

"Jianjun, why did you come back so late? What's the attitude of Yu Haitang's parents? Have they agreed to let her date me?" Because it was too dark, Sha Zhu didn't even notice that there was someone in the passenger seat.

"Ahem! As for this matter, you'd better go and have a good talk with your future father-in-law yourself. What I say doesn't count." Zhang Jianjun said as he pointed to the co-pilot seat next to him.

It was only then that Sha Zhu realized that there was actually someone sitting in the passenger seat! He took a closer look and suddenly became nervous, stumbling over his words: "Uncle...Uncle...Hello...Hello!"

Hearing Sha Zhu's expression, Yu Chaoyang couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahaha! You little guy is really funny, why did you suddenly stutter?"

"Hehehe! This is the first time I meet my father-in-law, so it's inevitable that I'm a little excited. Okay, okay, let's go into the house!" Seeing this, Zhang Jianjun hurried out to smooth things over with a bright smile on his face.

"Yes, yes, yes! I was just too excited and couldn't control myself for a moment." Sha Zhu touched his head and responded shyly.

After everyone got off the car, Yu Chaoyang turned to look at Yu Li and said softly, "Let's go, girl. Let's go find Yan Jiecheng first, and then chat with my good son-in-law."

Zhang Jianjun gently patted Sha Zhu who was still in a daze, and whispered to him, "Brother Zhu, stop being dazed, and hurry up! Now go and prepare some wine and food for your father-in-law!"

Sha Zhu slapped his forehead and said, "Hey! Look at my brain, it's so slow to react. You guys go ahead and do your work. I'll go cook right away!"

After Sha Zhu finished speaking, he ran back home. He couldn't be careless when his father-in-law came to visit him this time.

"Jianjun, see you later! I'm going to go and trouble Yan Jiecheng first!" Yu Chaoyang greeted with a smile.

"Okay uncle! I'll go home first and get you two bottles of the fine wine that I have at home for you to try." After saying that, Zhang Jianjun went to the backyard.

Yu Chaoyang also took Yu Li and went directly to the home of the third uncle Yan Bugui. As soon as they entered the house, Yan Bugui, who was drinking tea, hurriedly stood up and greeted him: "My dear relative! What brings you here? Come and sit down! Come and sit down!"

Yu Chaoyang slammed the household registration book on the table and said loudly: "Why are you sitting? I am not here to chat with you today. I am here to inform your son Yan Jiecheng to bring his household registration book and marriage certificate to divorce Yu Li tomorrow!"

The whole family present was instantly upset, especially Yan Jiecheng: "Dad! Please give me one chance! I really know I was wrong, and I don't want to divorce Yu Li!"

Yu Chaoyang said domineeringly: "I am here to inform you, not to discuss with you. Remember to bring your documents tomorrow morning and go to complete the divorce procedures!"

Upon seeing this, Yan Jiecheng knelt on the ground and hugged Yu Chaoyang's thighs: "Dad, I was wrong! Please forgive me this time! I will never hit Yu Li again, and I will listen to her whatever she says in the future."

Yu Chaoyang obviously didn't buy into Yan Jiecheng's tricks. He said coldly, "If apologies are useful, what's the point of having laws? If a murderer kills someone, is it enough to just say sorry?"

Yu Li chimed in, "That's right! If apologies are useful, why would we need the law? I'm going to get a divorce! I'll come see you tomorrow morning."

Yan Jiecheng was obviously unwilling to give up, and continued to talk: "No! I don't want a divorce, please, Lily, I really, really don't want a divorce!"

Yu Li was too lazy to pay attention to Yan Jiecheng and left without looking back. Yu Chaoyang said angrily: "You, you, I don't know how to say you well!"

Yan Jiecheng burst into tears and begged, "Dad! Can you please ask Lili not to divorce me? I really know I was wrong! I will never hit her again."

Yu Chaoyang pushed Yan Jiecheng away, shook his head, turned and left.

At this time, Sha Zhu was already busy in the kitchen. Many of the dishes made at noon were left over and now they could be eaten just by heating them up. Sha Zhu also specially made a few side dishes to make it convenient for drinking later.

"Brother Zhuzi, what are you making? It smells so good!" Zhang Jianjun asked with a smile.

"Nothing, I just heated up some leftovers and made a few side dishes. Jianjun, where did you go just now?" Sha Zhu said with a smile while cooking.

"I went home to get some wine. Your father-in-law will come over later and I will say a few good words to you so that you can marry Yu Haitang as soon as possible!" Zhang Jianjun explained with a smile.

"Thank you so much, brother Jianjun. Please take a seat first, the food will be ready soon!" Sha Zhu expressed his gratitude with a smile.

"Okay! Be smart and behave well in front of your future father-in-law." Zhang Jianjun gave some instructions and then returned to his seat.
