Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Chapter 225 Get out of here

After completing the discharge procedures, Sha Zhu helped Jia Dongxu back home. As soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw Qin Huairu washing clothes in the yard, and the three children were playing nearby.

Hearing the noise, Qin Huairu raised her head and saw Jia Dongxu, with a hint of surprise on her face, "Dongxu, why are you back?"

Jia Dongxu looked at Qin Huairu. Her face was a little pale, her hair was a little messy, and there seemed to be traces of tears in the corners of her eyes. His heart ached and he opened his arms, "Huairu, I'm back."

Qin Huairu put down the clothes in her hands and walked quickly to Jia Dongxu, "I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back."

She gently stroked Jia Dongxu's face, her eyes full of love and care. Jia Dongxu looked at Qin Huairu greedily. At this moment, he felt extremely happy and satisfied.

Seeing this, Sha Zhu quietly stepped aside with a relieved smile on his face. It seemed that his worries were unnecessary, and Qin Huairu still loved Jia Dongxu.

At this moment, a tall and burly figure appeared at the gate of the courtyard, holding a net bag filled with some fruits and canned food. Seeing the people in the courtyard, he smiled brightly, "Hey, are you all here? I bought some fruits, let's have a taste together."

Seeing the person coming, Qin Huairu's face changed slightly, and Jia Dongxu's face turned pale in an instant.

"What are you doing here?" Jia Dongxu said gritting his teeth.

The man who came was Xu Damao, the most shrewd and smooth person in the courtyard, but also one of the most annoying.

"Dongxu, what are you talking about? Can't I come and see you?" Xu Damao said with a smile, completely ignoring Jia Dongxu's hostility.

"You don't need to be so hypocritical!" Jia Dongxu roared, "Get out of here!"

The smile on Xu Damao's face froze for a moment, then returned to normal, "Dongxu, how can you talk to me like that? I came to see you with good intentions, why are you..."

"Get out!" Jia Dongxu roared again. Although his body was weak, his momentum was not weak at all.

Xu Damao wanted to say something but was stopped by Qin Huairu.

"Da Mao, go ahead. Dongxu needs to rest." Qin Huairu said lightly.

"Huai Ru, I..." Xu Damao wanted to fight for it, but was stopped by Qin Huai Ru's eyes.

"Go away." Qin Huairu's voice was soft but it was firm and unquestionable.

Xu Damao had no choice but to turn around and leave.

He walked to the gate of the courtyard, turned around and looked at Qin Huairu deeply, with a complicated look in his eyes.

Qin Huairu ignored Xu Damao, she turned around and helped Jia Dongxu into the house. Seeing this, Sha Zhu followed them in.

In the room, Jia Dongxu was lying on the bed with a terribly gloomy face.

"Huai Ru, why are you stopping me?" he said coldly.

Qin Huairu sighed, "Dongxu, you need to rest now, don't get angry."

"Rest? How can I rest?" Jia Dongxu roared, "Didn't you see the look in Xu Damao's eyes? He clearly meant to you..."

"That's enough!" Qin Huairu suddenly interrupted Jia Dongxu, her voice rising octaves, "Stop talking nonsense!"

Jia Dongxu was stunned. He had never seen Qin Huairu so angry.

"You...you yelled at me?" He looked at Qin Huairu in disbelief.

"What's wrong with me yelling at you?" Qin Huairu's eyes turned red. "Don't you want to think about your current situation? What else do you want?"

"I..." Jia Dongxu opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"What do you mean?" Qin Huairu's tears flowed down. "Do you think I don't want to take good care of you? But you have to give me this chance! You are suspicious all day long and have wild thoughts. What do you want me to do?"

Jia Dongxu was silent. He looked at Qin Huairu's tearful face, his heart filled with guilt and self-blame.

"Huai Ru, I..."

"Stop talking and have a good rest." Qin Huairu wiped her tears, turned around and walked out of the room.

Seeing this, Sha Zhu also quietly retreated.

He understood that leaving the couple alone for a while might be the best option.

However, what he didn't know was that the moment he turned and left, a complex look flashed across Qin Huairu's face, in which there was sadness, helplessness, and... a hint of determination.

"Huai Ru, listen to me..." Jia Dongxu struggled to explain, but was pushed away by Qin Huai Ru.

"That's enough!" Qin Huairu turned her back to him, her shoulders trembling slightly, "You are always like this, suspicious of the smallest things, aren't you tired?"

"I...I'm just worried about you..." Jia Dongxu's voice weakened, like a rooster drenched by rain, without his usual arrogance.

"Worried about me?" Qin Huairu turned around abruptly, pointing at her nose with tears in her eyes, "What are you worried about me for? Are you worried that I'm having an affair with Xu Damao? Jia Dongxu, let me tell you, no matter how miserable I am, I will never fall in love with a villain like him!"

Qin Huairu's words were like a sharp knife, stabbing into Jia Dongxu's heart. He opened his mouth, wanting to defend himself, but was powerless to refute.

Yes, he is now a useless man, a useless man who needs a woman to support him. What qualifications does he have to doubt Qin Huairu?

"I...I didn't mean that..."

"What do you mean?" Qin Huairu pressed on. "Speak clearly today! What exactly do you suspect me of?"

Jia Dongxu was forced to retreat again and again, and finally leaned against the wall, with no way to retreat. He hugged his head in pain, his voice hoarse, "I don't know... I don't know... I'm just afraid... afraid of losing you..."

"Are you afraid of losing me?" Qin Huairu sneered, "What do you have to be afraid of? Where can I run to if you are like this now?"

"Huai Ru..." Jia Dongxu stretched out his hand to hold Qin Huai Ru, but she pushed him open.

"Don't touch me!" Qin Huairu shook off his hand in disgust. "Instead of being suspicious here, you might as well think about how to stand up again! Look at how you look now, you don't look like a man at all!"

Qin Huairu's words hit Jia Dongxu's chest like a heavy hammer. He sat on the ground helplessly, his eyes empty, as if he had lost his soul.

Sha Zhu stood outside the door, listening to everything in the room. He wanted to go in and stop the fight, but after hearing what Qin Huairu said, he stopped.

He knew that what Qin Huairu said was right. What Jia Dongxu needed most now was to cheer up instead of complaining and being suspicious.

But what can he do? All he can do seems to be to silently protect Qin Huairu and offer her a pair of warm hands when she needs it.

Thinking of this, Sha Zhu felt an inexplicable bitterness in his heart. He turned and left, his back looking lonely, like a wounded beast.

……

A few days later, something big happened in the courtyard.

Xu Damao got a projector from somewhere and said he wanted to show a movie for everyone.

This was something new, and everyone in the courtyard was excited.
