Siheyuan: I stand for Xu Damao because he is my brother

He first went to the base to visit his old father-in-law, and then picked up Fang Rou who had been transferred there earlier, carrying the box of gold and silver jewelry she brought back.

He drove Fang Rou directly to the cellar that he had renovated with Qin Hu and Qin Bao.

Xu Dacan lit the kerosene lamp, put the box aside, and said to Fang Rou, "Except for the lack of electricity, there is no shortage of water and food here, and the bedding is all new. I'm sorry to ask you to stay here for two days. As soon as Uncle Lou and Aunt Lou are released, I will immediately send them here and then arrange for your family to leave."

Fang Rou looked around and said timidly: "It's out in the wilderness here, there's no one around, I'm scared."

Xu Dacan rolled his eyes: "Alright, alright, stop acting in front of me."

Fang Rou suddenly laughed, and her laughter became louder and louder. In the end, she was rubbing her stomach and laughing non-stop.

Xu Dacan knew that she was venting her emotions, so he didn't say much. He just waited silently by the side, afraid that she would end up in trouble by laughing.

Fortunately, Fang Rou finally controlled her emotions, walked up to Xu Dacan step by step, and asked him: "Am I a failure?"

"Failure?" Xu Dacan asked subconsciously.

Fang Rou nodded: "I was born to the first wife, but I was not welcomed since I was a child. Not only could I not live with my biological mother, I was not even worthy of the surname Lou. I watched helplessly as my father's concubine's daughter was doted on. People who didn't know the truth thought she was the eldest daughter of the Lou family..."

Fang Rou suddenly asked him: "Xu Dacan, do you think I hate her?"

Xu Dacan hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe it's hatred."

Fang Rou's expression gradually became ferocious: "Of course I hate her! I wish she was dead! I don't know how many times I wanted to smother her with a pillow!"

Xu Dacan sighed: "You still don't dare after all. I've heard a saying that there are only wrong nicknames, but no wrong names. No wonder your name is just Rou."

Fang Rou said in a hateful voice: "Of course I don't dare! Tan Yali is guarding against me like a thief. She wants to arrange someone to follow me 24 hours a day and watch my every move!"

Fang Rou's accusation continued: "I have lived in servants' houses and walked through servants' rooms since I was a child. My father and Tan Yali warned me in turn not to tell others who my father is. They made me feel like an illegitimate child!"

Fang Rou’s experience made Xu Dacan think of his club boss.

The couple was obviously wealthy, but in order to raise their son, they bought an old and dilapidated house in the west of the city and lived there with their son since he was a child.

He was reluctant to eat or wear anything every day and only ate meat twice a week; he said that he wanted his son to learn to endure hardships and carry forward the tradition of hard work and simplicity from an early age.

Isn't this just because you are full...

I didn't expect Fang Rou to have the same experience.

However, Xu Dacan didn't believe even a single punctuation mark in her words, and said to her unhappily, "Sister Fang Rou, next time when you make up a story, please make the character setting more detailed; for example, you can just say that Uncle Lou sent you to live with relatives in another province since you were a child, and you lived under their roof and had to depend on their faces every day."

Fang Rou blinked and asked, "What exactly does it look like?"

Xu Dacan said: "When other people's family of three are having dinner, they will drive you to the toilet door to eat. When other people's family of three are hanging their clothes on the balcony, so harmonious, they won't even leave a clothes hanger for you..."

Fang Rou loves beauty and doesn't frown easily, but at this moment her brows are furrowed as if they could kill a fly: "No wonder my dad always says I don't understand life. Xu Dacan, how do you know all this?"

Xu Dacan was too disdainful to answer her question: "Come on, you are a lady, and I am an ordinary person. Isn't this how we ordinary people live? There are too many people who have experienced the same thing as I just described..."

Fang Rou then covered her mouth and smiled gently with her head tilted. She was very elegant and charming, and it was not a deliberate act, but she was taught to be like this since she was a child, and she was as skilled as drinking water and eating.

Fang Rou looked at Xu Dacan and suddenly became bolder: "Hey, you know, we are in the wilderness, in a cellar, and we are alone. Even if I scream, no one will hear me. Don't you want to?"

If Xu Dacan was really a young man in his early 20s, full of vigor and vitality; or if he was an old bachelor in his 30s like Sha Zhu, or a bold and timid guy like his brother Xu Damao, they would have probably lost control and pounced on her long ago.

But Xu Dacan has lived two lives and has long understood the matters between men and women. He understands better than anyone the truth that every thorny rose has a price.

Being pushed away mercilessly by Xu Dacan again, Fang Rou felt ashamed and angry: "Xu Dacan, are you a man?"

Xu Dacan scratched his nose: "Liu Yueru knows this question best."

Seeing him suddenly mention his wife's name, Fang Rou understood: "You think I'm dirty, but I'm not that cheap!"

Xu Dacan interrupted her: "I don't like this kind of loveless and fleeting relationship. I have a strong sense of boundaries."

No emotions? And no sense of boundaries? Fang Rou learned a new word today.

At first glance, I didn't understand it, but after careful consideration, I found that the words were precise and easy to understand...

Seeing Xu Dacan about to leave without looking back, Fang Rou shouted from behind: "Dacan, I am willing. Before I leave, you can come over anytime you want!"

Xu Dacan was startled and kicked a brick. He limped out of the brick kiln in pain.

It was not until he got back to the car that he lit a cigarette for himself, tremblingly. As he smoked, he thought to himself, my goodness, who can resist this?

No wonder they say it’s easy for a girl to chase a boy. This is because Fang Rou is stupid, or she is more reserved. Otherwise, if she had rushed forward without hesitation, she would have played the game of catching chickens with him...

We have probably entered the VIP chapter by now. Ordinary users please watch it accompanied by your parents, ahem.

But unfortunately, Fang Rou didn't have it.

"..."

Back in Xu Damao's room, Director Wang was hiding from the rain while scolding Xu Damao: "Look at you, your brother is so hardworking, but why is it that you are such a fool?"

Xu Damao felt so aggrieved that he wanted to tell Director Wang everything about their acting.

Director Wang calmed down for a moment when he saw that Xu Damao had a good attitude and did not fight back or respond when he was beaten or scolded.

Director Wang warned Xu Damao earnestly: "Although you and Lou Xiao'e are divorced, she is still pregnant after all. The baby is yours, the Xu family's seed!"

Xu Damao absolutely agreed: "You are right, I, Xu Damao, am a bastard."
