Soon, the car stopped in front of a yard.
The gate to the yard was open, and several children were running around at the door. The sound of stir-frying with a spatula could be vaguely heard inside.
"This is where I live! There are seven families living in it, so it's a bit of a mixed crowd. Sorry to bother you!"
Pan Mingyue looked at the unfamiliar courtyard gate through the car window, repeating what Old Lady Pan had taught her.
"There are advantages to having more people! As the saying goes, a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative. If you live alone, your neighbors can help you out if you need help."
Pan Mingyue repeatedly emphasized that she was alone, and Su Guosheng had already heard it all.
He got out of the car from the front door and opened the back door for Pan Mingyue.
The guard came around the front of the car and wanted to help Pan Mingyue get out, but Pan Mingyue unexpectedly waved his hand away.
"I'm sorry, comrade! You and I are of similar age. If the neighbors see us pulling each other like this, they will gossip!" Pan Mingyue realized that her actions were inappropriate and pulled the corners of her lips awkwardly.
"Oh! I didn't think it through." Xiao Gao took a step back consciously.
Seeing that she didn't want Xiao Gao to support her and her legs were not convenient, Su Guosheng looked towards the yard.
"Xiao Gao, go in and call a female comrade to help. Comrade Xiaoyue still has a plaster cast on her leg, so she needs someone to support her before she can walk."
"Yes!" Xiao Gao obeyed the order and was about to go to the yard!
"No! Don't go!"
Pan Mingyue looked panicked and called out to him urgently.
Xiao Gao stopped, turned around and looked at Su Guosheng, and then both of them looked at Pan Mingyue in confusion.
Pan Mingyue rolled her eyes, her mind racing with ideas! How could she let others help her in? If Su Guosheng didn't go in, wouldn't her and Old Lady Pan's plans all go to waste?
She forced an explanation, "I'm so sorry, I just moved here not long ago and I'm not familiar with everyone yet. As the old saying goes, it's hard to repay a favor! I don't want to cause any trouble for others!"
As she spoke, she looked up at Su Guosheng and said directly, "No, why don't you just help me in, Comrade Su! Comrade Su is much older than me, so I can explain to the neighbors later that you are my elder! This way, we can avoid suspicion."
Although Su Guosheng felt that this female comrade seemed to be worrying too much, it was understandable that female comrades valued reputation!
"Come on, I'll help you in."
Su Guosheng stretched out his arm to hold her arm, but deliberately kept a distance from her.
Pan Mingyue held Su Guosheng's strong arms and hopped forward two steps on one leg. She was secretly happy when she suddenly found that Xiao Gao was still following her closely.
She paused and turned around. "Comrade Gao, please wait outside for a while! I'm a woman living alone, so it's not convenient for me to invite you in."
Xiao Gao frowned and looked at Su Guosheng, who nodded at him! This area is not far from the police station, so there shouldn't be any danger.
Lan Guoer hid in the corner and heard the conversation between them clearly.
This woman is so eager! She's almost writing "Here's to hide something" on her face!
Of course, this was only seen after she knew about it in advance!
A woman's heart is like a needle in the sea! From Su Guosheng's perspective, he couldn't really guess her intentions! After all, it's rare to see a woman who wants to get a man into bed after just two meetings!
Seeing that Pan Mingyue was determined to trick Su Guosheng into the room, Lan Guoer guessed that there must be something fishy in the room.
She told Xiaoqing a few words, and Xiaoqing responded quickly, crawling along the courtyard wall into the house.
The yard where Pan Mingyue lived was a large compound with houses on all four sides. The two rooms on the east side were rented by Old Lady Pan. One was used to set a trap for Su Guosheng, and the other was their temporary hiding place.
Old Mrs. Pan and Pan Minghui saw through the window that Su Guosheng was supporting Pan Mingyue as they walked into the yard, and joy showed in their eyes!
"My brother-in-law is really strong and healthy! He doesn't look like he is almost 50!" Pan Minghui looked at Su Guosheng's straight body with envy!
"Just looking at the Su family's seemingly rejuvenated appearance, no one would believe that the Su family's medicinal wine is not fishy! When my little sister gets married to him, I'll definitely ask her to bring a few bottles home so we can regain our youth!"
"That little bit of wine is nothing!" Old Mrs. Pan said disdainfully.
"The Su family is full of bachelors, and they still don't have a proper housekeeper. When your sister marries, she'll be a proper mistress! Won't all the Su family's assets be handed over to your sister? Isn't your sister's property our Pan family's?"
Pan Minghui wasn't as optimistic as Old Lady Pan. "Women, once married, are prone to having affairs! What if we let her get married and she becomes sympathetic to that Su guy?"
"What's there to worry about?" Old Mrs. Pan rolled her eyes at him and raised her eyebrows.
"She plotted against that Su today. Without her family's support, how could she have such confidence even if she married into the Su family?
In the future, I will have to rely on you as my brother! Don’t worry, after today, your sister will be our family’s cash cow! The Su family’s property is all ours! "
Pan Minghui suddenly understood and couldn't help but admire in his heart that this ginger is indeed still spicy with age!
"Comrade Su, the key is under the blue bricks at the door. Please help me open the door!"
Outside the door, Pan Mingyue's voice was heard. Old Mrs. Pan and Pan Minghui immediately stopped talking, quietly sticking to the wall, paying attention to the movements outside.
Su Guosheng bent down to take out the key, opened the door, and leaned towards it. The room was not big, just a small suite. When he opened the door, he saw a small living room. There was a small door on the left, which was closed at the moment. I thought it must be the bedroom.
"I'll take you here. Go back to your room and rest!" Su Guosheng said, pointing to the door. Since Comrade Xiaoyue cared so much about her reputation, it would be better for him not to go in, so as not to cause her unnecessary trouble.
Pan Mingyue was just gloating over the fact that her plan was about to succeed, but then she was thrown cold water! How could she give up just like that?
She glanced at the threshold under her feet, rolled her eyes, pretended to be tripped by the threshold, and fell to the ground in the house.
“Ah! It hurts!”
Su Guosheng was not paying attention when he heard a "bang" in front of him!
Looking again, he saw Pan Mingyue lying on the ground with his teeth bared, covering his injured leg and crying out in pain. He hurriedly bent down to help her.
