Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

After hearing what her father said, Lou Xiao'e was shocked and then fell into deep silence.

She once heard a saying that love is giving, love is fulfillment, and it is rationality that transcends emotion.

Since Chen Xueru could choose to let go in order not to drag He Yuzhu down, Lou Xiao'e could do the same.

Lou Xiao'e took a deep breath and said firmly:

"Dad, I've made up my mind. I'm willing to go to Hong Kong with you!"

Mother Lou's eyes were slightly red as she said, "My daughter, I am really sorry for you."

Father Lou also said with regret: "My daughter, it was Dad who harmed you. I thought marrying you to Xu Damao would make you happy, but I didn't expect that I would push you into the fire pit..."

Lou Xiao'e comforted them: "Dad, Mom, I don't blame you, this is fate."

"What's more, I found true love in the midst of hardship. Although I had to separate from my lover, at least I had love, and that's enough."

"By the way, when are we leaving?"

Father Lou said sternly, "It is better to leave sooner rather than later. If we delay, something bad will happen. We must leave within three days."

When Lou Xiao'e heard this, her eyes instantly became misty, and she said in a sad tone:

"Dad, Mom, I have to go say goodbye to He Yuzhu. I will be back before dark tomorrow."

Father Lou said in a low voice, "Go! Once you leave, you don't know if you can come back in this life. You should say goodbye to him properly, but you must come back within tomorrow."

Lou Xiao'e held back her tears, nodded, turned around and left home.

In the courtyard, He Yuzhu saw Lou Xiao'e coming back and couldn't wait to ask:

"Ezi, how was the talk with your dad?"

Lou Xiao'e suppressed the sadness in her heart and said with a smile:

"My father is visiting relatives and won't be back until tomorrow. I'll go back tomorrow."

The reason why Lou Xiao'e wanted to deceive He Yuzhu was because she wanted to leave quietly. She was afraid that He Yuzhu would try hard to keep her after knowing the truth. She was afraid that she would be soft-hearted and hurt He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu frowned and said, "This matter cannot be delayed. Your parents must leave the mainland as soon as possible. Every day they stay there will increase the danger."

Lou Xiao'e pretended to be helpless and said, "It can't be helped, but it should be fine if it's a day or two later."

He Yuzhu said worriedly: "It's okay if it's one or two days late at ordinary times, but now is a special period, I'm afraid of accidents."

"Nothing will happen!" Lou Xiao'e immediately changed the subject and said, "Brother Zhuzi, I haven't been to the park for a long time. Can you accompany me to the park?"

He Yuzhu said cheerfully: "No problem, which park do you want to visit?"

Lou Xiao'e pondered for a moment, then said, "Let's go to Xiangshan Park. Now is the best time to see the red leaves."

He Yuzhu felt dazed when he heard this. He remembered that he had promised Chen Xueru last year that he would accompany her to Xiangshan to see the red leaves every year. Unfortunately, in the blink of an eye, the geese flew away and everything changed. He couldn't help feeling a sense of loss in his heart.

Seeing He Yuzhu in a daze, Lou Xiao'e said unhappily, "Brother Zhuzi, what are you thinking about? Don't you want to accompany me to Xiangshan to see the red leaves?"

He Yuzhu smiled suddenly: "I didn't think much about it, I just thought it was a great idea to go to Xiangshan to see the red leaves now."

Lou Xiao'e said excitedly: "Then let's go!"

"Wait, let's go our separate ways. I'll go first and wait for you at the corner of the compound."

He Yuzhu asked in doubt: "Why do we have to go separately? Can't we go together?"

Lou Xiao'e explained: "You just got divorced, and we got mixed up. This is not good for your reputation, so we have to stay away from people."

This was of course Lou Xiao'e's excuse. She was afraid that others would know that they were involved, which would affect He Yuzhu's political future. She was about to leave and did not want to give others a handle to attack He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu said indifferently: "I don't care what others think..."

Lou Xiao'e frowned slightly and said with more emphasis:

"But I care. I'm afraid that others will say that I seduced you and that's why you and Chen Xueru divorced."

"You are a man and you don't care about such rumors, but I am a woman and I value my reputation more than my life."

He Yuzhu said helplessly: "Okay...Okay, don't say anything, I'll do as you ask, you go first, I'll be discharged later."

"That's pretty much it!"

Lou Xiao'e gave He Yuzhu a look and walked out of the courtyard with her sexy waist twisted.

About ten minutes later, He Yuzhu pushed his bicycle out of the courtyard, picked up Lou Xiao'e, and headed straight for Xiangshan Park.

When we arrived at Xiangshan Park, it was already twelve o'clock noon.

"Ezi, it's already noon, shall we eat something outside before going into the park?"

"Okay!"

"Then what do you want to eat?"

"I don't care, anything is fine!"

"How about going for noodles?"

"it is good!"

The two quickly found a noodle shop, which seemed to be doing good business, so they walked in.

"Boss, two bowls of noodles with soybean paste."

"Okay~"

In less than ten minutes, two bowls of fragrant noodles with soybean sauce were served. He Yuzhu wiped the chopsticks for Lou Xiao'e and handed them to her. Then the two of them started chatting while eating.

He Yuzhu found that although Lou Xiao'e was smiling, there was always a hint of sadness lingering between her brows, and asked with concern:

"Ezi, are you worried about your parents?"

Lou Xiao'e smiled sweetly: "No! Why do you ask?"

He Yuzhu frowned and said, "I always feel that you are worried and sad."

Lou Xiao'e suppressed her panic and smiled nonchalantly.

"Brother Zhuzi, are you seeing things? I am so happy to be with you, how can I be sad?"

He Yuzhu looked straight at Lou Xiaoe. When Lou Xiaoe was about to collapse, He Yuzhu suddenly said:

"Maybe I saw it wrong!"

Lou Xiao'e let out a long sigh and changed the subject, "Brother Zhuzi, eat faster. I can't wait to go to the park."

He Yuzhu said casually: "You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Don't panic, we still have an afternoon."

"No, I'll just go to the park and see the red leaves!"

"Okay, I'll eat faster!"

At Lou Xiao'e's urging, He Yuzhu quickly finished his noodles, and then walked into Xiangshan Park shoulder to shoulder with Lou Xiao'e.

When we entered the park, we found that there were quite a lot of people inside, but most of them were old men and women. After all, today was not a holiday and the young people had all gone to work.

When Lou Xiao'e entered the park, she was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, running around recklessly, looking here and there, as happy as a flying butterfly.

"Brother Zhuzi, hurry up, let's climb to the top of Xiangshan Mountain in one go. I heard that the top of the mountain is the best place to view the red leaves."

"Ezi, are you sure you can climb to the top of the mountain in one breath?"

"Brother Zhuzi, don't underestimate me, I can walk very well!"

"Then let's compete to see who can reach the top of the mountain first."

"Let's compete. I can definitely beat you."

"Then let's wait and see!"

Lou Xiao'e spoke more arrogantly than anyone else, but in reality she was a coward. She was already panting and her legs were shaking before she reached halfway up the mountain.

In contrast, He Yuzhu looked calm, his face wasn't red, his heart wasn't beating fast, and there wasn't even a drop of sweat on his forehead.
