Siheyuan: A young man starts a game and ignores the law

On a cold winter night, Liu Guangtian sat on the sofa in the living room, his face full of anxiety and helplessness. He looked at Qin Huairu and tried to say something.

"Honey, I think it's time for us to go back to Beijing." Liu Guangtian finally spoke.

Qin Huairu frowned, "I don't want to go back, everything there is so complicated."

Liu Guangtian tried hard to explain, "But Beijing is our home, we should go back and face it."

Qin Huairu shook her head. "I don't want to see Su Ming again. He...he makes me feel very painful."

Liu Guangtian gently held Qin Huairu's hand, "Dear, maybe we can face all this again. Time will dilute everything. Maybe you should have a good talk with him."

Qin Huairu said sadly, "I don't know how to face him. I can't let go of the past."

Liu Guangtian sighed, "We can't escape from the problem, and we can't let the shadow of the past haunt us forever."

Suddenly, the doorbell of the living room rang, interrupting their conversation. Liu Guangtian got up to open the door, and a strange young man was standing outside.

"Hello, is this Mr. Liu Guangtian's home?" the young man asked politely.

Liu Guangtian nodded, "Yes, who are you?"

The young man smiled and handed over a letter, "This is for you, thank you."

Liu Guangtian took the envelope and looked at the name on the seal with some doubt. He returned to the living room and opened the envelope. Qin Huairu also came over curiously.

The letter read:

Dear Mr. Liu Guangtian and Ms. Qin Huairu,

I hope this letter can convey my sincere wishes. I understand the troubles and pain that everything in the past may have brought to you. I want to have a good talk with you to resolve the misunderstandings and estrangements between us.

If possible, please come to my house tonight and let us face the past together and find solutions together.

Sincerely,

Su Ming

After Liu Guangtian finished reading the letter, the two of them looked at each other, at a loss as to what to do.

"He wants to talk to us." Liu Guangtian tried to say calmly.

Qin Huairu was silent for a while, and finally nodded, "Perhaps, I should face it."

Liu Guangtian put down the envelope in his hand and said, "Let's go."

Soon after, Liu Guangtian and Qin Huairu came to Su Ming's residence. They knocked on the door, and Su Ming opened it himself.

"Mr. Liu, Ms. Qin, thank you for coming." Su Ming politely invited them into the house.

The warm light in the living room set off Su Ming's smile. Liu Guangtian and Qin Huairu sat on the sofa, waiting nervously.

"I'm sorry for making you worry." Su Ming's voice revealed sincerity and apology.

Liu Guangtian nodded and said, "Perhaps we should have a good talk about the past."

Qin Huairu raised her head and looked at Su Ming, "Perhaps, we can start over."

Liu Guangtian stood in the living room, his expression solemn and determined. He stared at Qin Huairu and said softly, "Dear, I know you want to resolve this matter, but apologizing to Su Ming is not the way to solve the problem."

Qin Huairu was silent for a while, then looked up at Liu Guangtian, "But if I don't do this, our relationship will never be repaired."

Liu Guangtian walked to Qin Huairu and gently held her hand. "We can't put ourselves in a difficult position to please others. Su Ming should also understand your feelings."

Suddenly, Fu Heyi walked into the living room and saw their expressions. She knew what had happened. "Uncle, aunt, what's wrong with you?"

Liu Guangtian turned around and smiled, "He Yi, we are talking about some family matters."

Fu Heyi looked at them with a little confusion, "What happened?"

Qin Huairu sighed, "Heyi, I want Dad to apologize to Su Ming, but Dad doesn't agree."

Fu Heyi frowned, "Why should I apologize to him? This doesn't make sense."

Liu Guangtian explained, "Su Ming should perhaps be more understanding of our situation. I don't want us to give in to unreasonable demands."

Fu Heyi frowned, "Auntie, you should stick to your position. Dad, you shouldn't let Auntie suffer."

Liu Guangtian looked at Fu Heyi and said, "Heyi, you understand our difficulties, but we need a better way to solve the problem."

At this time, Qin Huairu's father walked into the living room. He looked at Liu Guangtian and Qin Huairu with a serious face, "What are you discussing?"

Liu Guangtian stood up and faced Qin Huairu's father, "Uncle, we should resolve this matter through dialogue."

Qin Huairu's father said coldly, "Liu Guangtian, your attitude towards this matter disappoints me."

Qin Huairu quickly said, "Dad, please understand us."

Liu Guangtian was also unwilling to give in. “I hope we can resolve this with rationality and tolerance.”

The living room fell into silence, and the atmosphere became solemn and tense. Liu Guangtian and Qin Huairu faced the confusion and opposition of their relatives, but they adhered to their beliefs and principles.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Liu Guangtian went to open the door and saw a strange young man standing outside.

"Hello, is this Mr. Liu Guangtian's home?" the young man asked politely.

"Su Ming, where are you now?" Fu He'er's anxious voice came.

"I'm at the mall, what can I do for you?" Su Ming asked.

"We have an urgent matter here. Can you come over and help?" There was a hint of anxiety in Fu He'er's voice.

Su Ming's heart moved, and he immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll be there right away."

After hanging up the phone, Su Ming couldn't help wondering what happened. He hurriedly left the mall and drove to where Fu Heyi was.

Half an hour later, Su Ming arrived at Fu Heyi's clothing store. Fu Heyi saw Su Ming coming and hurried to greet him.

"Su Ming, you're here. Thank you for coming so quickly." Fu Heyi said gratefully.

"What happened?" Su Ming asked with concern.

Fu Heyi said softly, "Some of the custom-made clothes in our store suddenly had problems and the customers needed urgent adjustments. I'm really too busy to handle it."

After hearing this, Su Ming quickly comforted her, "It's okay, I'll help you deal with it."

So, Su Ming and Fu Heyi threw themselves into the busy work. They were busy in the store, adjusting the size of clothes and providing thoughtful service to customers.

In the intense and fulfilling work, Su Ming gradually forgot the troubles in his heart. He focused on every piece of clothing and every detail in his hands, and time passed quietly without him noticing.

"Thank you, Su Ming." Fu Heyi wiped the sweat from her forehead and thanked Su Ming with a smile.

Su Ming shook his head and said with a smile: "You're welcome. This is what I should do."

After a busy day, Su Ming drove back home. Thinking back on today's experience, he felt much better. Perhaps being busy was the best antidote, allowing him to temporarily forget those troubled thoughts.
