Old Lady Long and her gang got into a fight with the people in the courtyard. Xu Damao, a scoundrel in the courtyard, played both sides and waited for an opportunity to use dirty tricks on Sha Zhu, such as kicking him in the groin.
"Awoo!" Sha Zhu was beaten by the crowd and rolled on the ground, clutching his head, looking miserable.
Actually, this is also the clever thing about the people in the courtyard. If they don't beat Sha Zhu, Old Lady Long and the others will not compromise and will insist that the people in the courtyard share the compensation.
When it comes to the money needed to support a family, no household has much spare cash, and even a fool wouldn't be willing to pay this amount for Old Lady Long and the others.
On the contrary, because Granny Long and others framed Zheng Ya, the people in the courtyard suffered as a result. They did not stand on Zheng Ya's side to share the money, but instead had to pay compensation accordingly. This inadvertently ignited their anger, and in short, they fought.
Beat up Sha Zhu, so that Granny Long and Yi Zhonghai will look forward to Sha Zhu cooking delicious food for them and taking care of them in their old age. They will also make a decision to protect Sha Zhu, compromise and admit defeat, and not let the people in the courtyard share the cost.
The two sides were deadlocked, and the fighting and attempts to break it up escalated into a major argument.
In contrast, the Yan and Shen families stood happily on the periphery of the fight, watching the spectacle under a fluorescent light, discussing it with great interest.
This allowed Wu Wei, who had just moved into the courtyard house, to witness a terrifying reality: a daily battleground of barbaric, unscrupulous, liar, shameless, and unscrupulous people.
This is so vivid!
In a way, fate taught Wu Wei a lesson.
Wu Wei was highly educated, clever from a young age, and often skipped grades. She graduated with a military academy diploma and was also skilled in martial arts. She was neither weak nor foolish.
At this moment, Wu Wei watched through the door as the people in the courtyard fought and argued over compensation, each displaying their unique skills. She could make some sense of what was going on and finally muttered four words: "utterly foolish."
Wu Wei said these four words because she felt that the people in the courtyard had a vivid imagination, while the reality of framing Zheng Ya was too harsh.
If Wu Wei hadn't come here not to cause trouble for Zheng Ya, she would have already discovered that the people in the courtyard were framing Zheng Ya.
The reason he helped the people in the courtyard deal with Zheng Ya was entirely out of selfish motives.
This kind of thing can't be discussed openly, but Wu Wei knew that the old director was present. Even if the people in the institute successfully framed Zheng Ya, the old director could still help Zheng Ya clear his name.
The fox can never outwit the old hunter.
After all, the Zheng family was full of martyrs, a family of twelve martyrs, which is quite rare.
Even if Zheng Ya were to mistakenly infiltrate an enemy spy organization and be discovered by the old director, he would still unite with some old comrades to protect Zheng Ya and ensure the survival of the Zheng family's heroic descendants.
Wu Wei did not deny that she came here to abuse Zheng Ya, but she never intended to kill him. If she really wanted to kill Zheng Ya, she could have just hired someone to do it. There was no need for her to come here and cause trouble herself.
She came to cause trouble simply to let her mother know that the Zheng family was nothing special and that Zheng Daotong was not worthy of her mother's undying love.
Only if Fu Qingyao bows her head and apologizes to the Wu family can Wu Wei regain everything she has lost!
Without the support of the Wu family's connections, her career path was doomed.
All of this compels Wu Wei to come and torment Zheng Ya, while also solving the case and earning merit to give the Wu family an explanation.
Unfortunately, plans don't always go as expected. Wu Wei began to reflect on herself, and after figuring things out, she got up and went outside, ignoring the commotion in the courtyard, and knocked on Zheng Ya's doorframe: "Tap, tap."
When Wu Wei got up to leave, Zheng Ya sensed it and slightly raised his chin, signaling Xu Qi to greet the guest.
Xu Qi looked up and saw Wu Wei standing at the door. She got up and went to greet her, saying, "Oh, isn't this the security guard from a certain classified unit?"
If you don't protect your confidential case information, be careful that it gets lost!
"At that time, your reasoning won't be as brilliant as it was just now, and you'll regret it..."
"I'm here to apologize to Zheng Ya, not to listen to your sarcastic remarks and mockery. Please move aside!" Wu Wei was angry that Zheng Ya had taken away her toy props; it would ruin her reputation if word got out!
Although this was my previous thought, I now realize that Zheng Ya is very powerful. The extent of his power remains to be seen, but since the rumors of them being engaged have spread, I cannot tolerate a third party interfering!
Xu Qi said with a laugh, "Can't you tell?"
Their intelligence is truly worrying!
"Just say what you want to say!" Wu Wei came to apologize to Zheng Ya, hoping to reconcile and make things easier for solving the case.
Otherwise, you'll end up pleasing neither side, your reputation will be ruined, the case won't be solved, and your future will be ruined!
Therefore, after guessing that Zheng Ya was very capable, Wu Wei gritted her teeth and decided to apologize to Zheng Ya and cooperate to solve the case.
We'll talk about the future later.
Xu Qi almost burst out laughing: "Hehe, my man doesn't want to see you, and you didn't even realize it? Your intelligence is..."
"You bastard! He and I are engaged, after all. Even if he's with you now, does he still deny what his mother, Tian Juan, promised him?" Wu Wei was furious, but she had no choice but to swallow her anger and try to persuade him.
How can an apology not be properly delivered?
After all, she really didn't know what to do if Zheng Ya wouldn't cooperate with her in solving the case.
In a sense, Zheng Ya was bait to lure enemy agents into capturing and killing him, while Wu Wei merely increased the value of the bait, creating the illusion for the enemy agents that capturing Zheng Ya and Wu Wei would grant them the secrets they desired.
Wu Wei and the old director's plan was to turn the tables on the enemy agents, lure them to make arrests, and then capture them all in one fell swoop.
But Zheng Ya is not cooperating, so this bait is unlikely to be successfully set up!
Xu Qi didn't care what she thought and criticized her without any politeness: "My man told me."
I know you're here to handle a case involving secrets from your classified unit, which is related to my husband's mother, Tian Juan, who is also my mother-in-law.
No matter how valuable, important, or worth protecting this secret, concealing the news of my father-in-law and mother-in-law's deaths from my mother-in-law is an abuse of power, an act of inhumanity and compassion to pursue your private affairs and seek credit and promotion.
From this perspective, you should all go to Xingtai…
"Do you know what you're saying?" Wu Wei roared, interrupting the fight in the courtyard, and everyone scattered to watch the show from a distance.
Xu Qi replied with unwavering disdain: "Little girl, reason doesn't lie in shouting."
Your roar shows that you are incompetent at solving cases, so you resort to underhanded tactics, hiding all the misfortunes in your family from my mother-in-law Tian Juan and ignoring the fact that my husband Zheng Ya was murdered, all for the sake of achieving your goal of solving the case and gaining merit, right?
"You incompetent security guard, try denying one thing loudly again!"
"You, me, us..." Wu Wei wanted to refute and slap Xu Qi in the face, but unfortunately she couldn't find a reason to fight back.
Are the people in the yard watching?
What could Wu Wei say? She couldn't just spout nonsense to the people in the courtyard without any scruples; that wouldn't fool Xu Qi and Zheng Ya's clever minds.
Just as Xu Qi said, the security department suppressed the news of Zheng Daotong and his mother's deaths in order to solve the case, gain merit, and protect secrets. They didn't tell Tian Juan because they were afraid that if they couldn't protect Tian Juan, they would lose secrets and ruin the whole process, even if they didn't die.
This kind of thing has become a matter of passing the buck and shirking responsibility, and it's been ignored.
When Tian Juan learned the truth, she made a scene, and they each tried to shift the blame. One said that someone had given her a note to deliver to Tian Juan, while the other said that someone had someone else deliver it and put it on Tian Juan's desk. They kept passing the buck and that's how it ended.
Anyway, nobody knows the real situation!
