Courtyard: The Fatty's Counterattack

Transmigrated to a parallel world, he became Fatty, the apprentice of傻柱 (Shazhu). With elderly parents above him and three sisters worrying about marriage below him, Fatty hones his culinary skills...

Chapter 237 This is what you guys usually drink!

That must be incredibly lucrative! No wonder they dared to pay Yu Qian such a high salary.

Following the address, Huaihua found the "Where to Move" company.

As soon as I got downstairs, I saw Yu Qian wearing a gray uniform and a hat of the same color with the words "Where to Move" printed on the back. He was talking to someone in front of the truck.

Huaihua called out to him, "Yu Qian!"

Yu Qian turned around in surprise, and when he saw it was her, he smiled: "It's you! What brings you here?"

The locust flower squinted and answered him, "Of course it's the spring breeze, a single oar in the spring breeze, a leaf-like boat!"

Yu Qian chuckled, "Are you going fishing?"

Huaihua gave another bitter smile: "I don't have that kind of luck. I was on my way back from the hospital and just happened to see you."

Upon hearing that Huaihua had gone to the hospital, Yu Qian asked with concern, "What happened to you? Are you alright?"

Huaihua shook her head: "It's nothing serious. I just accidentally broke my arm while working in the workshop. I still can't use my left arm for several days, so I had to take leave to go to the hospital. Otherwise, I really wouldn't have wanted to spend 50 cents on the registration fee!"

Hearing her describe the terrible things she did, Yu Qian felt very sorry for her.

Just as Yu Qian was thinking about how to comfort Huaihua, a sudden idea struck him: "Come with me!"

Without waiting for a reply, he took Huaihua and walked towards the building behind him.

But to their surprise, just as they reached the top of the stairs, they ran into an acquaintance at the corner.

He Yushui exclaimed in surprise, "Locust flowers?"

Huaihua was also taken aback for a moment before quickly calling out, "Aunt Yushui, what are you doing here?"

Yu Qian, standing nearby, whispered, "This is our supervisor, who oversees these teams."

Although Yu Shui was curious about why Huai Hua had suddenly come to the company, she had other things to do, so she said a few words and left in a hurry.

Huaihua followed Yu Qian to the third floor and into an office. Yu Qian, familiar with the place, took out two bottles of Coke from the refrigerator and shook them at Huaihua; "I'll treat you to a Coke!"

Huaihua held the glass bottle and sipped the cola from it with a straw.

It tasted a bit bitter at first. What is this? It tastes like strong Chinese medicine! But after a few sips, it started to taste good, especially since there was a kind of gas in it that kept swirling around in her chest, making her want to burp!

As Huaihua drank, she looked around the office.

It's clean and bright, a hundred times better than their factory!

Huaihua said to Qian, "You've gone to so much trouble to treat me to such expensive drinks..."

Yu Qian waved his hand arrogantly: "It's free."

"No way!"

The locust flower drink is really impressive! What company is it? I usually drink this!

Yu Qian stammered, "These are all for entertaining guests. Since you're here today, I'm entertaining you, hehe."

Huaihua scolded him, "You too, they're entertaining important guests; I should have just poured me a glass of water, so the spiritual guide wouldn't have bothered you later."

Yu Qian, being a single guy, had absolutely no experience interacting with girls, and at this moment, he couldn't help but want to brag in front of the locust tree:

"How could that be? The big boss is my brother-in-law!"

Huaihua's mind was in turmoil. Brother-in-law? Fatty! He was actually the mastermind behind this moving company?

Yu Qian was the kind of guy who couldn't be taken prisoner; the moment someone used a honey trap, he confessed everything...

From him, Huaihua easily learned a lot of inside information about the "Where to Move" company.

Unexpectedly, the mastermind behind the "Where to Move" company was Fatty, along with his second sister. The two siblings operated in the open and in the shadows, respectively.

In addition, the person currently in charge of taking on jobs is He Yushui, Shazhu's sister.

Others included Huaihua's mother's old acquaintances, the group of people from the former Women Workers' Committee of the Red Star Factory!

Like Sister Hua, Liu Yuhua, and so on!

Huaihua was completely dumbfounded that Fatty had recruited all of these people.

After figuring these things out, Huaihua couldn't help but feel a little uneasy again.

These people are all petty thieves; if she really manages to steal Yu Qian away, I wonder what they might do...

But then Huaihua suddenly realized that there really wasn't anything between them!

Yu Qian himself admitted that he and Xiao Dang were not a couple. If that's the case, then why is she feeling guilty?

After finishing her cola, Huaihua pursed her lips, still wanting more, and put down the bottle to say to Qian, "Actually, I came here today specifically to see you."

Yu Qian was taken aback: "Looking for me?"

Huaihua nodded: "Actually, I wanted to thank you last time and came to see you, but I was afraid that Xiaodang would find out; I really envy her. With someone like you by her side, she is so happy."

Yu Qian quickly explained, "No, no, no, you misunderstood. Your sister and I really have nothing to do with each other."

Huaihua looked at him with suspicion: "Really?"

His face immediately turned cold: "I'm warning you, don't try to have your cake and eat it too. If you dare to let Xiao Dang down, I won't let you off the hook!"

Yu Qian practically swore an oath: "Heaven and earth bear witness, I barely see Xiao Dang a few times a month, and we barely exchange a few words. How did we become a couple?"

Now that she believed him, Huaihua became a little hesitant: "After I left the hospital today, I don't know why I felt empty inside, so I wanted to find someone I could talk to. I just wandered in without thinking when I was passing by. You won't mind if I cause you trouble, will you?"

"..."

Ah, happiness came too suddenly, Yu Qian's mind went blank for a moment.

"No, no, oh no, I mean you can come find me anytime, or rather, I..."

Seeing his incoherent ramblings, Huaihua couldn't help but chuckle.

Yu Qian stared blankly at the locust flower; she looked so beautiful when she smiled.

Even when wearing clothes that make her look old-fashioned, and without any accessories in her hair, just with her hair simply draped over her shoulders, she is as radiant as the spring sunshine in the yard, and you can never get enough of looking at her.

Seeing Yu Qian staring intently at her, Huaihua felt a surge of joy, but then lowered her head, shifted uncomfortably, and braced herself against the ping-pong table.

The two of them were standing right next to a ping-pong table; this office was also used by employees for relaxation and entertainment.

Just as Yu Qian was at a loss, Huaihua said softly, "I've seen you and Xiaodang together before. You were chatting and laughing, and you even bought her candied hawthorns... At that time, I thought to myself, you are so good to Xiaodang. I also want to find someone like that, but unfortunately no one likes me."

As she spoke, her mood soured again, making her even more pitiful to see.

Yu Qian blurted out, "How could that be?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, it was as if the entire office had been muted.

Neither Yu Qian nor Huaihua spoke, and a sense of ambiguity gradually filled the air.
