Qin Huairu was stunned.
Why is Yi Zhonghai suddenly cursing at me for no reason? He's always been very polite to me!
Fortunately, Yi Zhonghai caught his breath and continued, "Qin Huairu, tell your mother to come out. I need to talk to her!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu nodded and agreed, "Okay, okay."
When Qin Huairu hurriedly entered the house to call for Jia Zhangshi.
An older woman came out of the house, looking at her husband with a puzzled expression, and said, "Old Yi, why are you back at this hour? And why do you look like this?"
"Stop talking!" Yi Zhonghai waved his hand helplessly and said, "Dongxu got into trouble. He was arrested by the Nanluo Police Station for gambling last night. That's alright, the key is that Dongxu seems to have other things to do. The security personnel went to the police station to take him away, but they didn't bring Dongxu back. That's why I rushed back to ask Dongxu's mother if she knows anything."
"What!" Before he could finish speaking, Jia Zhangshi's distinctive voice came from inside the Jia family house: "Yi Zhonghai, you just said my son is at the police station??? What happened to him!!!"
Immediately afterwards, Jia Zhangshi hurriedly took the shoes she had just sewed inside the house and walked up to Yi Zhonghai, saying, "My son is such a well-behaved boy, how come he's at the police station!"
Helpless, Yi Zhonghai could only repeat the news he had just heard from Lin Yang.
Upon hearing this, Jia Zhangshi collapsed to the ground, crying out, "Oh! Old Jia!!! Why is my life so miserable! I told Dongxu long ago not to gamble, but he wouldn't listen!!!"
Standing behind her, Qin Huairu was speechless.
What's the use of making a scene at this point? Even if Old Jia came back to life, he still couldn't be brought out of the police station.
The most important thing now is not to figure out why Jia Dongxu is still being kept in the police station.
Thinking of this, she didn't bother to help her mother-in-law up, but looked at Yi Zhonghai and said, "Uncle, did Lin Yang tell you why he didn't bring Dongxu back? And how exactly can we bring Dongxu back from the police station?"
Her two questions hit the nail on the head, and Yi Zhonghai gave Qin Huairu an approving look.
In his mind, he was thinking of an idea he had come up with out of boredom.
He wanted Qin Huairu to have a child for him.
At that moment, Yi Zhonghai suddenly realized that this was indeed a good idea.
With his own excellent genes as an eighth-grade fitter, coupled with Qin Huairu's good looks and responsible personality, their child would surely be even more outstanding.
Then I won't have to spend all my time researching who would be suitable to take care of me in my old age.
Of course, this thought must not be revealed, and the most urgent task is to figure out how to rescue Jia Dongxu.
Otherwise, if Jia Dongxu were to be interrogated and something were revealed, it would be bad for me to be implicated.
Therefore, Yi Zhonghai shook his head slightly and looked at Qin Huairu, saying, "Lin Yang doesn't know why Dongxu was stopped either. As for how to rescue Dongxu, that's why I came back!"
He was just about to ask Jia Zhangshi if Jia Dongxu had committed any other crime.
But when he noticed that a number of neighbors had gathered in the courtyard, drawn by Jia Zhangshi's cries, Yi Zhonghai sighed and said, "Jia Zhangshi, stop wailing. Let's go inside and talk!"
"Old Yi, you must save Dongxu! He's not only your apprentice, but someone you've watched grow up!" Upon hearing this, Jia Zhangshi immediately stopped wailing and stared intently at Yi Zhonghai.
Her wailing was just to attract everyone to come out and see, so that she could force Yi Zhonghai to agree to save Jia Dongxu in public.
Having lived in the courtyard for so long, Jia Zhangshi also knew that Yi Zhonghai liked to save face and act like a big shot in front of everyone.
Generally, he will keep his promises made in public.
Yi Zhonghai understood her little scheme perfectly well.
He could only nod and say, "Alright, alright, get up now. If I didn't want to save Dongxu, why would I have rushed back? Aren't you cold in the middle of winter?"
"Good, good, good, I'm relieved to hear you say that, Lao Yi!" Upon hearing this, Jia Zhangshi jumped up.
After entering the house, Yi Zhonghai took a sip of the water Qin Huairu had poured for him, and then spoke to Jia Zhangshi:
"Jia Zhangshi, tell me honestly, besides gambling, does Dongxu have any other problems?"
Madam Jia shook her head vigorously, saying, "Dongxu is almost out of money even when gambling, how could he afford to do anything else!"
"Then do you think it's possible that he stole things because he didn't have money to gamble?" Yi Zhonghai raised another hypothesis.
"Impossible!" This time it was Qin Huairu who spoke up, saying with certainty, "Dongxu wouldn't dare to steal anything!"
Yi Zhonghai then proposed several hypotheses, but unfortunately, they were all rejected by Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu.
"So what exactly happened?" Yi Zhonghai rubbed the teacup in his hand helplessly.
An older woman standing nearby suddenly spoke up: "Why don't we wait for Lin Yang to come back? He's from the security department and knows the police station, right?"
"Yes!" Yi Zhonghai slapped his thigh and said, "If Lin Yang can get Dongxu back to the factory, then I can help out!"
"But will he help us?" Qin Huairu asked hesitantly.
In her opinion, Lin Yang had said yesterday that he wanted to play basketball with her, and now that Jia Dongxu had been arrested, wouldn't that be a perfect opportunity?
"How could he not help us!" Madam Jia immediately frowned and said, "We're all from the same courtyard, he has to help us when something happens to our family!"
She added in a disgruntled tone, "If Dongxu is still stuck in the police station because of his lack of help, I'll scratch his face until it's bruised and battered!"
