But they told him that the girl did indeed get off the bus here.
They looked terrified, and they didn't know what happened after that.
Therefore, Xu Damao could only linger in this place, asking all sorts of questions.
This person seemed to have vanished into thin air; where did they go?
"Xu Damao, get out here right now!"
The person he longed for day and night, Zhao De, had already returned to the courtyard house.
As soon as he stepped into the yard, he roared loudly, looking furious.
"Zhao De, what's wrong with you?"
Hearing the commotion, the elderly woman and her family from the front yard rushed out.
Seeing the bicycle Zhao De was pushing, Yan Jiecheng was filled with doubt; it was Qianqian's bicycle.
How did it end up in Zhao De's hands, and where is Qianqian herself?
He went to Zhao De's house early in the morning to knock on the door, only to find that the door was locked and there was no one inside.
Seeing that people from the middle and back courtyards had gathered, especially Aunt Liu whom he had met the night before, Zhao De immediately spoke up:
"Xu Damao tricked my cousin Qianqian away last night."
“I’m not entirely clear on the specifics, but Qianqian’s mental state has been somewhat affected.”
"I have already taken him to the hospital for treatment."
These words were like a thunderclap from a clear sky, instantly igniting everyone's emotions!
"How is Qianqian? What happened?"
"Is Qianqian injured? Where is Xu Damao?"
"How did Xu Damao manage to lure Qianqian away? That's impossible!"
Qin Huairu was secretly delighted. Could it be that he's not coming back?
"How do I know?"
Zhao De said in a bad tone, "I only know a few fragments. Xu Damao was telling Qianqian that there wasn't a single good person in this courtyard."
"All they do is scheme and plot against each other; they're a whole house of beasts."
"I guess it was because Qianqian believed him too easily, and Xu Damao used some underhanded methods to trick her into going out."
"Moreover, it is said that Xu Damao specifically asked Qianqian to bring all the things you gave her last night."
"He's planning to take her away to a faraway place!"
After Zhao Degang finished speaking, Aunt Liu suddenly interjected, saying that she did see Xu Damao taking Qianqian out when she went to the toilet last night.
Pushing a bicycle, and carrying large and small bags of luggage.
This caused an even bigger uproar among the already heated crowd.
Where is Xu Damao?
"I'm just back to find him!"
Qin Huairu pressed further:
"When you saw Qianqian, didn't you see Xu Damao?"
"I didn't see him. If I had, I would have sent him to the crematorium right then and there!"
Zhao De's fierce gaze sent a chill down the spines of everyone present.
They then remembered that the man in front of them was the one who had once killed two wild boars with his bare hands!
His fighting prowess is now vastly different from what it used to be.
This is definitely not someone you can mess with!
"So, what exactly triggered Qianqian's reaction?"
Zhao De replied with a displeased expression, "I still want to ask Xu Damao for clarification!"
"Get out of the way, don't block the way. By the way, just a quick note."
"If anyone sees Xu Damao return, let me know immediately, and I'll reward you with a pound of half-fat and half-lean wild boar meat!"
The crowd naturally made way for him, their eyes fixed on Zhao De as they respectfully watched him return home.
Until his figure completely disappeared under the small corridor that encircled the courtyard.
Another round of discussion broke out in the crowd. Yan Jiecheng first approached the third aunt and spoke to her, his face full of worry:
"Oh my god, what should we do now?!"
It turns out that after Zhao Qianqian was taken away by Xu Damao, something happened.
My mental state has been affected; I don't know how serious it is, and what if I never recover?
"I'm not sure either. Your dad just went to work. Why don't you go find him and talk to him about it?"
"He probably hasn't arrived at school yet."
These words also came out of Aunt Er's mouth, and then Yan Jiekuang and Liu Guangfu rushed out of the courtyard gate.
Only Sha Zhu had no one to consult with. After thinking for a moment, he went straight to the backyard.
"Zhao De, how serious is Zhao Qianqian's condition?"
Zhao De was busy opening the door and glanced at him.
It's unclear whether he genuinely cares or just wants to cut his losses as quickly as possible.
"The doctor said that her condition is okay, but she needs to rest for three to five months and should not be disturbed."
Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
But the thought of having to wait three to five months to see Qianqian again made her hate Xu Damao to the core.
It's all Xu Damao's fault. Zhao De saw through his expression and said, "You want to take the clothes back, right? If so, don't be shy, I'll give them to you now."
"no!"
Sha Zhu hurriedly took a step back and shook his head frantically.
“That was a gift I gave to Qianqian. I’ve already given it to her, so how can I ask you to take it back?”
"You have some conscience."
Zhao De commented, "Brother-in-law."
Sha Zhu shouted, "Wait a minute, what did you just call me?"
Zhao De pressed further, "Brother-in-law!" Sha Zhu replied.
"When did I agree to your relationship with Qianqian?"
"Look at yourself, how old are you? How much older are you than my sister?"
As Zhao De spoke, he was about to roll up his sleeves. "Alright, alright, Zhao De, I'll call you Zhao De, okay?"
Sha Zhu followed closely behind Zhao De and headed towards the side room.
"No, from now on I'll call you Brother Zhao!"
"As long as you stop calling me brother-in-law, you can call me whatever you want."
Zhao De stood in front of the wild boar and said, "Come and lend a hand, let's carry it out."
"okay!"
Without saying a word, Sha Zhu immediately started working, saying, "Go ahead and use your strength! Put it all on my side."
As soon as the wild boar was lifted up, Zhao De angrily questioned him.
Sha Zhu was completely bewildered; he had clearly exerted two hundred pounds of force!
This wild boar weighs less than 300 pounds.
Seeing that Sha Zhu's face was flushed red, Zhao De increased his strength.
Then, the two of them carried the wild boar to the wooden table at the door of the house, one after the other.
"Alright, you don't need to help anymore. Go do whatever you're doing!"
After Zhao De finished speaking, he casually asked, "By the way, why didn't you go to the factory today?"
Sha Zhu replied, "Oh, I took the day off yesterday, and I took the day off today as well."
Zhao De instantly understood that Sha Zhu had taken the day off yesterday to go on a blind date, and it seemed that he planned to resolve this matter quickly in the next two days.
It seems that Sha Zhu should have known yesterday that this blind date was unlikely to go smoothly.
In this way, he probably already had a clue about some things.
Perhaps it's related to some things He Yushui inadvertently revealed.
Zhao De didn't think much of it and simply waved for Sha Zhu to either leave.
Either stay on the sidelines and watch, or if you try to get involved, don't expect to get any meat.
