"Smack!"
"Enough, that's enough." Sun Zhengguo slammed his fist on the table, his anger flaring.
“Brother Zhu, what you just said, you saw it with your own eyes.”
When Sha Zhu saw Sun Zhengguo get angry, he also stood up, thumping his chest loudly, and said firmly.
"I guarantee that I saw this with my own eyes. If you don't believe me, Sister Zhang from the cafeteria can testify to this, and many people who ate lunch at noon should have seen it."
Upon hearing what Sha Zhu said, Sun Zhengguo's anger immediately subsided by half.
Even if Zhou Weimin were incredibly bold, he wouldn't dare commit a crime right under someone's nose. Is there some kind of misunderstanding here?
"Brother Zhu, you've been talking for so long, who is that woman?" Sun Zhengguo asked this question, but he already had a guess in his mind.
"Oh! I don't know what that woman's name is? Anyway, she's quite pretty and young. She was wearing work clothes, so I can't really describe her."
Sha Zhu thought for a long time, but that was all the information he could come up with.
But Sun Zhengguo had already understood that the person he was talking about was undoubtedly Zhou Weihua.
The reason is simple: as a front-line technician, Zhou Weihua seems to be the only woman in the institute wearing work clothes.
"Heh! No wonder everyone calls you 'Silly Zhu.' You don't even know who that girl is, yet you dare to come here and spout nonsense?"
Sun Zhengguo sneered and said somewhat angrily.
He had been fooled; he knew that Sha Zhu was unreliable, yet he still believed his nonsense.
"No, Zhengguo, you know me well enough. Although I'm a bit of a scoundrel, I would never lie..."
"Alright, alright, I understand. I have something to do, you can go back now!"
Sun Zhengguo was no longer willing to listen to Sha Zhu's sophistry, so he forcibly interrupted him and then ordered him to leave.
Now that things had come to this, Sha Zhu couldn't just stay and refuse to leave, so he could only shrug innocently.
"Anyway, I warned you, whether you listen or not is up to you."
After saying this, Sha Zhu left Sun Zhengguo's office.
As he walked back from the office, Sha Zhu still seemed a little angry.
He just couldn't figure it out. What exactly went wrong?
Is Sun Zhengguo really that easy to talk to? Knowing that his future brother-in-law is entangled with other women, doesn't he have any thoughts about it at all?
If this problem isn't figured out, he probably won't be able to sleep well at night.
...
As evening approached, Sha Zhu, who had just finished get off work, looked somewhat listless as he walked back to the courtyard house.
As soon as he returned, He Yushui rushed over, grabbed him, and asked him questions.
"Bro, how was your day? You didn't mess it up, did you?"
"You still don't trust me? With a plate of shredded pork with garlic sauce and a plate of Mapo tofu, the people from your research institute practically wanted to stop me from leaving. They even asked what I would do if I couldn't eat such good food next time?"
When cooking is mentioned, Sha Zhu starts showing off again and bragging.
He seemed to have forgotten how Sun Zhengguo had chased him away at noon.
"What are you babbling about? Eat."
Sitting at the table, He Daqing squinted at his son, who was bragging, and said irritably.
During the meal, Sha Zhu asked his sister about her blind date. He Yushui didn't react much, only saying that she would give it a try first.
After dinner, Sha Zhu was still a bit persistent and brought up Zhou Weimin's matter again, portraying him as a shameless, despicable, and unfaithful man.
Upon hearing this, He Yushui knew things were about to go wrong. Who was Zhou Weimin? How dare you talk such nonsense? She panicked and almost burst into tears.
"Silly brother, you don't understand Zhou Weimin at all. Things aren't what you think. You haven't told anyone about this, have you?"
"Silly sister, how could I possibly go out and spread such a thing?"
Hearing her brother's words, He Yushui finally felt relieved, but unexpectedly, Sha Zhu said something else.
“I was only telling Sun Zhengguo, but he ignored me and even chased me away. He really treated my kindness like dirt.”
He Yushui was stunned by Sha Zhu's words, and it took her a long time to recover before tears streamed down her face.
"Girl, what are you doing? Why are you crying!"
He Daqing was also somewhat puzzled, thinking that there was nothing wrong with what Sha Zhu did.
If someone of such poor character isn't reported, are we just going to let them live through the New Year?
"Dad, you have no idea what's going on! Silly brother ran over and spouted nonsense without even asking any questions. That woman's name is Zhou Weihua. Now you understand!"
After listening to He Yushui's tearful account, Sha Zhu was still completely bewildered and didn't understand what was going on, but the clever He Daqing had already figured it out.
"This Zhou Weihua is Zhou Weimin's younger sister and daughter, am I right?"
Seeing this, He Yushui nodded through her tears, helplessly acknowledging the truth.
When Sha Zhu realized that all his fuss had turned out to be a misunderstanding, he sat to the side, too scared to utter a sound.
However, although he didn't say anything, he was secretly delighted!
If what my sister said is true, then the two are siblings, which means I still have a chance.
At this moment, He Daqing, who was sitting on the stool, rolled his eyes and suddenly asked a question.
"Silly Zhu, is that girl pretty?"
"Beautiful, Dad. You didn't see it. That girl is not only beautiful, but her voice is also lovely, and..."
Sha Zhu abruptly stopped speaking, because he realized that his father was trying to trick him into revealing information!
"You little rascal, I'm going to beat you to death! You can't even walk past a pretty woman, and you're always causing trouble for me."
As He Daqing spoke, he took off his rubber shoes, stepped forward, and gave Sha Zhu a big slap.
Because his movements were so fast, Shazhu didn't even have time to react.
After enduring several blows, the burning pain finally brought Sha Zhu back to his senses.
However, He Daqing was his father, so he didn't dare to fight back. He could only hold his father's hand tightly and try his best to keep the shoe from falling.
"Dad...Dad, let's talk this out. This isn't entirely my fault. I was also unaware of the situation. There's an old saying that goes, 'Ignorance is no excuse!'"
"Let go of me! You're unaware of this, aren't you? I think you're blinded by that girl. Stop pretending to be so noble."
He Daqing was truly enraged and didn't want to give his son a chance to explain; he still wanted to slap him.
So, a dramatic scene unfolded inside the house: one wanted to hit the other, while the other held him back, and the father and son remained locked in a stalemate, neither able to gain the upper hand.
Finally, seeing that this was not a solution, He Yushui had no choice but to step forward and take their hands, saying...
"Dad, Silly Brother, stop making a fuss. The most important thing now is to apologize to Brother Zhengguo and ask for his forgiveness. We can't let this ruin my job."
Upon hearing this, He Daqing realized that his daughter's words made sense, so he threw down the shoes he was holding and put them back on.
When Sha Zhu saw that the danger had passed, he let go of his hand, but he still did not let his guard down, in case He Daqing suddenly attacked and hurt someone.
"What are you looking at? Hurry up and go. I'll go with you to Zheng Guo's place. He's not a petty person, he should be able to forgive you."
While speaking, He Daqing didn't forget to add a kick.
Sha Zhu was only focused on defending his face, not realizing that his father, who lacked martial ethics, was now aiming for his lower body.
"Ouch!"
Poor Sha Zhu couldn't escape his father's scorpion tail attack and let out a scream.
