Siheyuan: No One Can Be Left Behind

Chapter 508 Behind the Scenes

Li Dongfang knew that she was just talking and it would do her no good to make it known. Moreover, judging from the degree of cooperation of Sun Xiu in the past two days, she was really anxious.

After a brief thought, Li Dongfang said, "How about we do as you say and adopt the child as my godson first? That way, I can take care of you two openly?"

"What about the child's surname? Are you really going to let him have the surname Xu?" Sun Xiu rolled her eyes at Li Dongfang. Since he was still thinking about taking care of her and her daughter, she didn't bother with him. However, as a father, one must have regular and quantitative responsibilities!

Li Dongfang also frowned upon hearing this and said, "This matter is really difficult to resolve. Although Xu Damao is gone, the old Xu couple are still alive. If you want the child to have someone else's surname, won't they be in a big fight?"

"It seems that I have to divorce Xu Damao. After the divorce, they won't be able to control me anymore!" Sun Xiu said resolutely.

"What do you mean? From what you said, it seems that you don't plan to get a divorce?" Li Dongfang glanced at Sun Xiu.

Sun Xiu rolled her eyes at him and said, "Isn't it because some people like me as their sister-in-law? They really don't know how to appreciate a good person!"

"Hehe, then why don't you just adopt him as your godson first? There's no need to rush to register your household registration. Wait until you get divorced." Li Dongfang quickly changed the subject. This matter was not something that should be discussed in detail.

Sun Xiu curled her lips, revealing an expression of "as expected", and did not argue with Li Dongfang on this issue for too long, and said, "So what are you going to do?"

"Invite everyone in the hospital to dinner in the next two days and talk about it." Li Dongfang said as a matter of course.

"Why not just hold a meeting of the whole hospital to announce it? Why bother to treat them to a meal? What a waste!" Sun Xiu obviously didn't want to let people eat and drink for free.

"What's the big deal about a meal? What's more, after they eat our meal, when the Xu couple come looking for them, can they just sit there and do nothing? They will have to stand on our side and speak for us, right?" Li Dongfang said with a smile.

Sun Xiu thought so too, so he nodded in agreement, leaned closer to Li Dongfang and said, "You are such a heartless person. You have been gone for such a long time, you don't know how I managed to survive!"

Li Dongfang felt that there was something else in her words, so he put his arm around her shoulders and asked, "Is something wrong?"

Sun Xiu was a little depressed and said, "When I went back to my parents' home some time ago, I don't know who spread the rumor that Xu Damao was arrested. I was a woman alone in an empty room, and there were always people trying to get close to me. What's even worse is that some people even tried to take advantage of me verbally and physically. It really pissed me off."

Only then did Li Dongfang realize that there was a reason why Sun Xiu moved back from her mother's home. After all, there were a large population in the courtyard, and some unscrupulous people would not dare to be too presumptuous.

After moving back, Sun Xiu no longer has the support of her parents. I guess Mr. and Mrs. Xu are not the kind of people who would lend a hand. It seems that Sun Xiu has not been having a good time recently.

"Now that I'm back, I will make it up to you and your mother. Come to my place for breakfast and dinner from now on. If there's anything, tell me and I'll take care of it."

"Yeah." Sun Xiu seemed a little tired. She responded softly, then leaned on Li Dongfang's shoulder and stopped talking.

The warm atmosphere didn't last long before footsteps were heard approaching. It must be Shuyi coming back.

Sun Xiu sat up straight, holding the child and rocking him gently. Li Dongfang also stood up, took out a cigarette and walked towards the door.

As soon as he went out, he saw Lin Shu looking towards the entrance of the middle courtyard with a frown on his face, so he walked up to him and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Lin Shu did not hide it and said, "I just saw Liu Haizhong in the backyard, sneaking out with Zhao Juan."

Li Dongfang's eyes suddenly fixed, and he immediately thought of the matter of the Qin family's house. It started because Zhao Juan moved in, and then Liu Haizhong helped Jia Zhang to hold a meeting of the entire courtyard, wanting to occupy the house.

Could it be that Zhao Juan is behind this?

As for Liu Haizhong, this guy with a little brain, Li Dongfang didn't think much about it. After all, he hasn't even become a team leader in all these years, which shows how low his IQ and EQ are. He is probably just being exploited.

As for whether Zhao Juan was behind all this, Li Dongfang was not sure. If so, then Zhao Juan really made Li Dongfang look at her with new eyes, so he asked Lin Shu: "Did you hear what they said?"

Lin Shu shook his head and said, "I was just passing by. I didn't hear what they said. When they saw me, they separated immediately."

Li Dongfang nodded and said, "Help me keep an eye on Zhao Juan and see if she makes any moves tonight. I'm going to go meet our Second Uncle."

After instructing Lin Shu, Li Dongfang turned and walked towards the backyard. When he arrived at the Liu family's gate, Li Dongfang heard Liu Haizhong's loud voice, "You little bastard, haven't you grown up...?" followed by the sound of a belt snapping.

It seemed that he had come at the wrong time. This was obviously Liu Haizhong's routine part of teaching his son a lesson. "Bang!" There was a sound of the door opening. Li Dongfang quickly dodged and hid in the shadows. He saw the brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu rushing out of the house with their heads in their hands without saying a word.

He ran out without hesitation, apparently he was used to it.

"Run! I told you to run! Once you run out, don't come back!" Liu Haizhong chased out of the door holding a belt, but when he saw that the person had disappeared, he could only roar angrily twice.

The second aunt followed out with a calm face and advised Liu Haizhong: "Don't be so angry all the time. Although these two boys are not as sensible as Guangqi, they are your own children after all. You can't always kill them!"

"Hmph! Just side with them. Have you forgotten that the police almost took me away last time? It was these two little bastards who did it!" Liu Haizhong complained, threw his belt to the ground, turned around and went into the house.

The second aunt also shook her head, picked up the belt that Liu Haizhong had thrown away, wiped it, and followed him back to the house.

Li Dongfang then walked out from the shadows and looked around. It seemed that the people in the backyard were accustomed to the Liu family beating their son. They were not even interested in watching the fun and no one came out.

Li Dongfang approached Liu Haizhong's house carefully and saw the half-open door of Xu's house next to him.

Sun Xiu was still in his room. At this time, Xu's room was pitch black. Li Dongfang quickly hid inside and lay on the wall to listen to the movements from the Liu family next door.

"In the final analysis, this matter is your fault. How could you be so bewildered as to believe what the Jia family said? This is the first day you met Jia Zhang?" The second aunt's complaining voice came.

"I...wasn't I also deceived by Jia Zhang? It was because of those two who caused me so much trouble!" Liu Haizhong said angrily.

"Oh, just believe what she said. You'd rather believe in ghosts than believe what Jia Zhang said. Don't you know? She said she saw Guangtian and Guangfu peeking at her wife taking a bath, so they peeped?! I don't know what your brain is for!" The second aunt scolded Liu Haizhong without giving him any face.
