Siheyuan: Starting from the Old Society

"You're talking nonsense! I didn't!" Qin Huairu shook her head desperately, tears welling up in her eyes.

"No? Why does that idiot Zhu come to your house every other day? Do you dare to say that you are not interested in him?" Lin Sian grabbed her chin and forced her to look at him.

"I... I and Shazhu are just..."

"Just what? Just ordinary friends? You are kidding!" Lin Sian roared and pressed her under him.

"Ah!" Qin Huairu screamed and struggled desperately, but was restrained by his strong arms and could not move.

"Let me go! Help! Help..."

Lin Sian tore her clothes roughly, Qin Huairu closed her eyes in despair, two lines of tears slid down the corners of her eyes...

Suddenly, the door was kicked open!

"Stop!" An angry voice exploded, and a figure rushed into the room like an angry lion...

Qin Huairu slumped on the ground, feeling cold all over. Lin Sian's words were like sharp knives, cutting into her heart. Fear, despair, and deep grievances made her eyes red and tears welled up in her eyes.

At this moment, a figure stood in front of her. It was Sha Zhu.

"Lin Sian, come at me if you dare! What kind of man are you if you bully a woman?!" Sha Zhu rolled up his sleeves, ready to fight Lin Sian to the death.

Lin Sian glanced at Sha Zhu with contempt and sneered, "Who do you think you are? Are you worthy enough to challenge me? Get out of the way and don't get in the way!"

"You..." Sha Zhu was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick, and he raised his fist to hit.

"stop!"

A loud shout was heard from the crowd, and everyone turned around, only to see the eldest uncle Yi Zhonghai walking towards them with a dark face, followed by the second uncle Liu Haizhong and the third uncle Yan Bugui.

"Old Yi, you're here at the right time! This kid..." Sha Zhu pointed at Lin Sian and wanted to complain.

"Shut up!" Yi Zhonghai shouted angrily, interrupting Sha Zhu's words, "You have no right to speak here?!"

Sha Zhu was frightened by Yi Zhonghai's sudden anger. He shrank his neck and dared not say a word.

Yi Zhonghai turned around and looked at Lin Sian, forcing a smile on his face: "Sian, you're back? I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back!"

Lin Sian looked at Yi Zhonghai coldly without saying anything. He knew these people too well. They were all cunning people. They seemed friendly on the surface, but they schemed against countless people behind the scenes.

"Si'an, we've all heard about you and Huairu." Yi Zhonghai continued, "Look, it's been so long, and you're not a child anymore, it's time for you to get married and start a family. I watched Huairu grow up, she's diligent and kind, a good girl. If you're willing, I'll go to the neighborhood office tomorrow and help you get married, what do you think?"

Yi Zhonghai's words were high-sounding, but in fact he was testing Lin Sian's attitude. If Lin Sian really still had feelings for Qin Huairu, then they would naturally be happy to see it happen. After all, Lin Sian was now a member of the Intelligence Department, and it was too late to curry favor with him. But if Lin Sian no longer had feelings for Qin Huairu, then they would also have to find a way to marry Qin Huairu off quickly to avoid more trouble.

Lin Sian naturally understood Yi Zhonghai's little thoughts. He sneered and said, "Don't worry about my affairs."

"What do you mean?" Yi Zhonghai's face darkened.

"My meaning is very simple," Lin Sian glanced at everyone and said word by word, "From today on, Qin Huairu is mine. If anyone dares to take advantage of her, don't blame me, Lin Sian, for being rude!"

Lin Sian's eyes were as sharp as a knife, and his tone was full of unquestionable dominance. Everyone was shocked by his sudden momentum, and no one dared to speak for a while.

At this moment, a voice came from outside the crowd: "Hey, isn't this Lin Sian, the busy man in our hospital? Why, are you back from the Intelligence Department?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man wearing a Dacron Zhongshan suit and a slicked-back hair, walking in slowly with a playful smile.

When Lin Sian saw the person coming, his expression suddenly changed.

Qin Huairu collapsed on the ground, feeling cold all over. Lin Sian's words were like a sharp knife, piercing her heart and her self-esteem. She didn't understand how the man who had cared for her and said he would take care of her for the rest of her life could become so terrible.

Fear and despair overwhelmed her like a tide, and she even forgot to struggle and cry.

Lin Sian looked at Qin Huairu, who was lying on the ground. There was no pity in his eyes, only cold possessiveness. He had long been attracted to this woman. If she had not been taken away by the Intelligence Department, she would be his now!

"Hmph, you got a good deal!" Lin Sian smiled coldly and turned away.

As soon as he left, Jia Zhang threw herself on Qin Huairu, crying and shouting, "My son! Why are you so miserable? Oh, God, please open your eyes and take a look! Why is it so hard for us, an orphan and a widow?"

Qin Huairu was brought back to reality by Jia Zhang's crying. She slowly came to her senses and looked at the fat and bloated mother in front of her who only knew how to cry and make a fuss. A deep disgust suddenly surged in her heart.

"Okay, stop crying!" Qin Huairu pushed Jia Zhang away impatiently, slowly stood up, patted the dust off her body, and her eyes became firm, "What's the use of crying? Life has to go on!"

Jia Zhang stared at Qin Huairu blankly, as if she was meeting her daughter for the first time.

Qin Huairu ignored Jia Zhang's surprise, she walked straight to the gate, looked at the direction where Lin Sian left, her eyes were complicated and difficult to read. She knew that her life had completely changed.

Lin Sian's sudden return was like throwing a stone into a calm lake, breaking the tranquility of the courtyard.

People in the yard were talking about it, speculating about Lin Sian's identity and purpose.

"Who is this Lin Sian? Why is he so arrogant?"

"Who knows, but it seems that he and Qin Huairu have a special relationship."

"That's right. Look at his eyes. He wants to eat Qin Huairu!"

"Oh, poor Qin Huairu. She finally got rid of the Jia family, but now she has to fall into the hands of Lin Sian again."

......

Listening to the discussions around her, Qin Huairu felt mixed emotions. She knew that she had become the focus of the courtyard, and all this was thanks to Lin Sian.

In the evening, Lin Sian returned to the courtyard with a big bag of things.

As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Qin Huairu washing clothes. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her, giving her a layer of golden halo, making her look particularly beautiful.

Lin Sian looked a little dazed. He strode to Qin Huairu and stuffed the thing in his hand into her arms: "This is for you."

Qin Huairu looked down and saw a piece of red silk, which was shining brightly in the setting sun and was obviously worth a lot of money.

"What do you mean?" Qin Huairu raised her head and looked at Lin Sian coldly.

"I'm giving this to you to make clothes. Haven't you always wanted a new piece of clothing?" Lin Sian said with a smile, reaching out to touch Qin Huairu's face.

Qin Huairu took a step back suddenly, avoiding Lin Sian's hand, and said coldly: "Lin Sian, don't forget, I am no longer your fiancée."

Lin Sian's hands froze in mid-air, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. He looked at Qin Huairu, his eyes gradually becoming dangerous: "Qin Huairu, are you challenging my bottom line?"

Qin Huairu met Lin Sian's gaze fearlessly and said word by word: "Lin Sian, I tell you, I, Qin Huairu, am not your appendage. I have the right to choose my own life!"

Lin Sian was enraged by Qin Huairu's words. He grabbed Qin Huairu's arm and said with gritted teeth: "Qin Huairu, you'd better understand what era it is now! You can't be so presumptuous!"

He exerted force on his hands, as if he wanted to crush Qin Huairu's bones.

"Let me go! You hurt me!" Qin Huairu felt pain and struggled.

As the two of them were pulling each other, Qin Huairu's clothes were torn, revealing a large area of ​​her snow-white skin.

Lin Sian's eyes suddenly became hot. He suddenly pulled Qin Huairu into his arms and lowered his head to kiss her.

"Well......"

Qin Huairu struggled desperately, but couldn't break free from Lin Sian's restraints.

At this moment, the gate of the courtyard was suddenly kicked open, and a tall figure appeared at the door.

"stop!"

The man roared, rushed to Lin Sian in two steps, and knocked him to the ground with one punch.

Lin Sian was beaten so hard that he saw stars. Before he could react, he was sat on by the attacker and beaten with fists.

"You are tired of living if you dare to touch my woman!"

The man roared as he beat him.

Qin Huairu was stunned by the scene in front of her.

The man who suddenly appeared was none other than... Sha Zhu!

The appearance of Sha Zhu instantly froze the originally tense atmosphere.

Lin Sian got up from the ground in a panic, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and glared at Sha Zhu fiercely: "Sha Zhu, you dare to hit me? Are you tired of living?!"

Sha Zhu clapped his hands and spat with disdain: "Bah! You are so arrogant, kid? Don't you think you are a good person? You dare to act wild in the yard. Aren't you afraid that the wind will blow your tongue away?"

"You..." Lin Sian was so angry that his face turned blue. He pointed at Sha Zhu for a long time but couldn't say anything.

Of course he didn't dare to confront Sha Zhu head-on.

Who is Sha Zhu? He is a well-known scoundrel in the steel mill. He is strong and no one dares to mess with him. If they really fight, Lin Sian will only get beaten.

"Silly Zhu, just wait for me!" Lin Sian left a harsh remark and ran away in shame.

Sha Zhu looked at Lin Sian's fleeing back, curled his lips in disdain, turned around and his eyes fell on Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu was still in shock at this time. She didn't expect Sha Zhu to appear suddenly, and she didn't expect that he would fight with Lin Sian for her.

"Huai Ru, are you okay?" Sha Zhu walked up to Qin Huai Ru and asked with concern.
