Siheyuan: No One Can Be Left Behind

Yan Bugui stared in amazement as Li Dongfang led Mrs. Zhang and the girl into the middle courtyard. He seemed to understand something. Could it be that Li Dongfang was attracted to this girl? No way, this girl had a skinny figure, how could Li Dongfang be attracted to her?

What he could never have imagined was that in this era, big, chubby, and childbearing girls were the heresy in Li Dongfang's aesthetic taste.

Yu Li and Ran Qiuye, who had been paying attention to the situation of the Yan family, saw Li Dongfang invite the matchmaker and Yan Jiecheng's blind date to the Central Courtyard. They looked at each other, then suddenly stood up and walked towards the Central Courtyard.

"Could it be that Li Dongfang has fallen in love with that girl?" Yu Li asked worriedly.

"No way, that girl looks thin and weak, Li Dongfang wouldn't be that bad, right?" Ran Qiuye's tone was also full of uncertainty.

"You bastard, how dare you flirt with a woman in front of us?!" Yu Li said angrily as she walked away, gritting her teeth.

"Hehe~~" As the two of them walked into the central courtyard, they heard sneering sounds coming from the side.

When I turned around, I saw it was Lin Shu. Lin Shu was inseparable from Li Dongfang and must know a lot of things. What did her smile mean?

Yu Li rolled her eyes, stopped in front of Lin Shu and said, "Lin Shu, can I ask you a question?"

Yu Li could only be friendly to Lin Shu. She knew with her heels that Lin Shu must be Li Dongfang's woman. It was just that she saw Li Dongfang flirting with women one after another, so why didn't she see Lin Shu quarreling with Li Dongfang?

Lin Shu glanced at the two of them, and without any hesitation, he asked directly: "Do you want to ask about Li Dongfang's hooking up with women?"

Yu Li and Ran Qiuye both looked straight at Lin Shu at the same time. Although they didn't say anything, they also tacitly agreed with Lin Shu's words.

"He is far more fickle than you can imagine. You need to think this over carefully. If you can't accept it, it's better to get out of it as soon as possible." Lin Shu has been with Li Dongfang for such a long time that he knows a little about Li Dongfang's taste and preferences. He likes women with gourd-shaped figures, and the aesthetics of this era have no effect on him at all.

"You mean, Li Dongfang really likes this girl?" Ran Qiuye still couldn't believe it.

Lin Shu glanced at the two of them, shrugged and said no more, then turned around and went into the house.

In the end, Yu Li and Ran Qiuye did not go to see Li Dongfang to pick up girls. Instead, they ordered some dishes from Sha Zhu and had their meal in Sha Zhu's house.

"Qiu Ye, what do you think Lin Shu meant by what he said just now?" Yu Li asked while eating.

"I think Li Dongfang may have a lot of women, and Lin Shu is giving us some subtle reminders." Ran Qiuye also frowned slightly.

"I remember telling you that the rumors about Li Dongfang in the steel mill may not be groundless."

"No way, you mentioned more than ten..."

After some communication, the two felt deeply powerless. However, when they thought about it, apart from the fact that they had less time to spend with Li Dongfang, they didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Li Dongfang. Perhaps it was related to Li Dongfang's irresistible physical strength?

On the other side, in Li Dongfang's room, Sha Zhu and Lin Shu were keeping him company, and Mrs. Zhang and the girl were also very satisfied with the meal.

After all, there were five people and six dishes, all of which were meat, much better than what Yan Bugui's family had.

Li Dongfang also learned about the girl's general situation indirectly. She was from Jinzhijian and had a bad family background. Li Dongfang didn't ask for details.

It is already difficult for someone with this status to find a husband in this era, not to mention her weak appearance, which makes her even less welcome. That's why she would go on a blind date with a family like the Yan family.

As for other things, Li Dongfang doesn't care. He has everything he needs. He just needs people. He doesn't have to consider work, background, physical condition, etc. like other people.

Not to mention that Jinzhijian is just petite, not really thin. Li Dongfang feels that there is no need for medical treatment and he can recover his strength by eating well and drinking well.

How could the shrewd matchmaker not hear that Li Dongfang was interested in the girl, and he kept praising Li Dongfang for his youth and potential.

All in all, the meal was eaten in great harmony, and at the end Jin Zhijian kept stealing glances at Li Dongfang.

After the meal, Li Dongfang sent the two of them out and secretly pulled the matchmaker Zhang Sao, and quietly put a big black ten into her hand. Zhang Sao immediately smiled and said that she had something to do and had to go home quickly, so she asked Li Dongfang to take Jinzhijian back.

Li Dongfang, who was quite talkative, chatted with Jin Zhijian all the way. However, even if he tried his best to make her happy, Jin Zhijian only slightly curved her lips, with a hint of sadness between her brows.

Li Dongfang was a little unconfident. Was his charm failing? When did it become so difficult to coax a girl?

Jinzhijian's residence is not far away, just north of Nanluoguxiang in Caochang Hutong. It is an independent small courtyard. Although it has only one entrance, it is not something that ordinary people can have. This makes Li Dongfang even more confused about the situation. He doesn't look like he has trouble making a living, so why is he so worried all the time? How big is the matter?

At the gate of the courtyard, the two said goodbye. Jin Zhijian obviously had no intention of inviting Li Dongfang to come in and sit down, so Li Dongfang could only say goodbye and leave.

Just after turning around and taking a few steps, the door to the courtyard opened and a slightly older woman opened the door and said, "Miss, you're back?"

Li Dongfang couldn't help but frown when he heard the title. The title of "Miss" was obviously not something that should be given to relatives and elders. Could it be related to the previous dynasty?

If that's the case, then her temperament makes sense.

But Li Dongfang didn't think much about it. After all, he had made an appointment to go out and play with her tomorrow, so he would know all this sooner or later.

After returning to the courtyard, Yu Li and Ran Qiuye did not ask anything, but they worked together to severely punish Li Dongfang. He did not fall asleep peacefully until the second half of the night. Li Dongfang even suspected that if they were not exhausted, he would not have needed to sleep.

However, Li Dongfang was very pleased to see the two of them doing this, as it was very sensible.

The next day, Li Dongfang finished washing up and prepared to set out to find Jinzhijian. It was the first time that he cared so much about a woman and was unwilling to wait even a moment longer.

As soon as he went out, he saw Lin Shu listening to someone talking beside the car. Li Dongfang recognized that he seemed to be from the guard company, so he walked up to him.

When Lin Shu saw Li Dongfang coming out, he whispered a few words to the man and sent him away.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Li Dongfang walked up to Lin Shu and asked.

"Get in the car and talk while driving." Yan Bilinshu took the driver's seat first.

Li Dongfang opened the passenger door and got in. While driving, Lin Shu said, "Do you know that there are a group of people named Jin in Sijiu City?"

Li Dongfang thought for a moment, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he said in surprise: "You mean..."

"That's right, they are those people from the previous dynasty. The Jinzhijian from yesterday was one of them. And her surname is Aisin-Gioro, a direct descendant." Lin Shu looked straight ahead with a flat tone.
