Siheyuan Diaosi Attack

Li Yue's eyes were gentle but firm. He whispered to Lou Xiao'e, "What will you do if you know the truth?"

There was a hint of concern in his voice, as if he was waiting for Lou Xiao'e's answer.

A trace of confusion flashed across Lou Xiao'e's eyes, and she responded softly: "You should talk to me!

I only knew what to do after I heard it, didn’t I? "

There was a hint of pleading in her voice, and her fingers unconsciously fiddled with the sheets, revealing her inner uneasiness.

Li Yue took a deep breath and then slowly began to narrate: "This is not your problem!

It’s Xu Damao’s problem.

Xu Damao is infertile, he is born infertile, how can you have a child?"

There was a sense of relief in his words, as if he had solved a long-standing mystery for Lou Xiao'e.

After hearing this, Lou Xiao'e asked in surprise: "Then why do they say it's my problem?"

There was a hint of confusion and grievance in her voice, and her eyes were full of doubts.

Li Yue patiently explained: "Have you checked?

And has he checked Xu Damao?

If you go to the hospital for a checkup, you will know!"

There was a hint of encouragement in his voice, as if he was pointing out a path for Lou Xiao'e.

After hearing what Li Yue said, Lou Xiao'e felt a complicated emotion in her heart.

She thought about how she had never been to the hospital for a check-up and always thought that it was her own problem. All the folk remedies and soups were given to her by Xu Damao, as if there was something wrong with her!

She said to herself: "It seems that there is nothing wrong with me!

It’s Xu Damao’s problem!

Did he delay himself?

And let him drink the bitter medicine."

A gleam of determination flashed in her eyes, and then she thought, what if this is the case.

Just divorce?

The atmosphere in the room became heavy, and Lou Xiao'e's eyes were filled with confusion and uneasiness.

She looked at Li Yue and thought to herself, "But what should I do after I get divorced?"

Her fingers were intertwined nervously, revealing the inner tangle.

Li Yue sensed Lou Xiao'e's helplessness, and his voice was soft and full of concern: "What do you want to do?"

His eyes encouraged Lou Xiao'e to express her ideas.

Lou Xiao'e was silent for a moment, then whispered: "I don't know what to do?

My family doesn’t know what they think either, what do you think I should do?”

There was a tremor in her voice and her eyes revealed uncertainty about the future.

Li Yue took a deep breath and said seriously: "Xu Damao is not a good person!

He is just a villain!

If you continue to be with her, he will do something bad to you.

There are also some things about your family that he knows. His mother used to be a maid in your family.

He knows a lot about your family."

Lou Xiao'e's eyes revealed confusion and uneasiness. She looked at Li Yue and asked inquiringly, "Why are you saying this? What does this have to do with it?"

Her brows furrowed slightly, showing her anxiety.

Li Yue met her gaze, his voice firm but gentle: "Do you believe me?"

There was no trace of evasion in his eyes, as if he was showing his sincerity to Lou Xiao'e.

After hearing what Li Yue said, Lou Xiao'e felt mixed emotions.

She and Li Yue didn't have much contact, but now there is this subtle relationship between them.

She was silent for a moment, then whispered, "I don't know whether to believe it or not."

There was a hint of hesitation in her voice, and her eyes lingered on Li Yue's face, trying to find an answer.

Li Yue noticed Lou Xiao'e's hesitation, and he said softly, "You don't have to say it now, whether you believe it or not.

Go to the hospital for a physical examination tomorrow to see if what I said is true.

If it is true, let Xu Damao go to the hospital for a check-up and you will know.

Then come back to me, I have something else to tell you.

Now is not the time for me to say it!

Let's talk after the inspection!"

There was a strategy in his words, as if he was pointing out a clear path for Lou Xiao'e.

Li Yue gently threw the cigarette butt to the ground, then turned around and hugged Lou Xiao'e. His voice was a little tempting: "How about we do it again?"

There was a mischievous twinkle in his eyes.

Lou Xiao'e was brought back to reality from her contemplation by his words. She looked at Li Yue with a hint of surprise: "Do you still want it?"

There was a hint of uncertainty in her voice, and her fingers gently touched Li Yue's chest.

Li Yue smiled lightly, with the corners of his mouth raised, and a hint of joking in his tone: "What do you think?"

His movements and expressions convey his intentions.

After hearing this, Lou Xiao'e's face flushed. She responded to his words, and the two of them immersed themselves in each other's world again, and it was not until late at night that they gradually calmed down.

As the two of them finished, Lou Xiao'e realized the reality of the problem, and she said softly but firmly: "Li Yue, I have to go back!

Otherwise, someone else will find out.”

There was a hint of worry in her voice, her fingers moving quickly through her clothing.

Li Yue listened to Lou Xiao'e's words and nodded, his voice low and understanding: "Yeah!"

Then he said, “Okay!

Then go back!"

There was a hint of reluctance in his eyes, but more of respect for Lou Xiao'e.

Lou Xiao'e quickly put on her clothes and got out of bed. She turned around and looked at Li Yue with complicated eyes: "I'm going back."

There was a hint of farewell in her voice.

Li Yue sat on the bed, looking at her quietly, and said gently: "Go back quickly and have a good sleep."

Lou Xiao'e nodded slightly and left Li Yue's house without making much noise.

In the darkness of night, she walked along the path towards her home.

As she walked through the middle courtyard, she heard slight noises, which made her steps involuntarily become lighter and slower.

She quietly approached the source of the sound, curiosity driving her to find out what was going on.

In the moonlight, Lou Xiao'e saw Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai there.

She held her breath and quietly observed the interaction between the two.

Time passed minute by minute until Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai finished their affair.

Yi Zhonghai's voice was filled with concern as he said softly, "Take this corn flour back. It will last your family for a few days."

His words revealed a kind of thoughtfulness and care.

Qin Huairu listened and responded gratefully: "Then, uncle, I will go back."

Her voice was low, with a hint of humility and gratitude.

Yi Zhonghai nodded and said simply: "Well, you should go back soon."

His voice was calm, yet contained an unmistakable gentleness.

Qin Huairu turned and left, walking hurriedly towards her home.

Yi Zhonghai watched her figure disappear into the night, then he turned around and slowly left.

Lou Xiao'e witnessed the departure of Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu, feeling mixed emotions. She tiptoed back to her home, closed the door, and lay alone on the bed, thinking to herself, "How could Yi Zhonghai be such a person, and he and his apprentice's wife Qin Huairu..." Her voice gradually became low, her fingers unconsciously tugged at the bed sheet, and her eyes revealed disappointment and anger, "Jia Dongxu just passed away, how could he do such a thing? And doesn't Yi Zhonghai have an old lady at home? Really..." She didn't continue, but the expression on her face was enough to express her feelings.

Afterwards, Lou Xiao'e's thoughts drifted back to what happened with Li Yue in the evening and the upcoming visit to the hospital for a check-up.

Her mood was complicated, including what she said to Li Yue, as well as uncertainty and anxiety about the future.

Finally, with these chaotic thoughts, she fell into a drowsy sleep.

Li Yue was unable to fall asleep in his own home.

After a long time, he fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up the next morning, he got off the floor, fetched water from the kitchen bucket, washed his face simply, then heated up some steamed buns in the kitchen and heated up the leftovers in the lunch box that He Yuzhu had brought back.
