The Wizard's Journey Begins in a Courtyard House

Chapter 44 The Opening of the General Assembly

After the little incident between Xu Damao and He Yuzhu passed, the college-wide meeting officially began.

The first to speak was Yi Zhonghai, who first explained why the deaf old lady did not attend the meeting;

"I also invited the deaf old lady earlier, but she is too old and doesn't want to get involved in our trivial matters, so she didn't come to the meeting."

Rumors about the deaf old woman's identity have been circulating in the courtyard for several years.

Therefore, most people in the hospital genuinely believed that the deaf old lady was a respectable family member of a martyr, and thus did not express any dissatisfaction after hearing Yi Zhonghai's words.

Even Liu Haizhong, who wanted to overthrow Yi Zhonghai at this moment, was no exception.

Of course, what Liu Haizhong was more afraid of was that if he said something to the deaf old lady now, she would find out later.

The window glass will likely be smashed.

By then, we'll be muggles.

Even if he caught the deaf old lady doing it, there was nothing he could do about it.

That's absolutely disgusting.

In fact, Liu Haizhong was not the only one who thought this way; there were many others present who shared the same idea.

It's just that everyone has been tolerant because of my status as a family member of a martyr.

Seeing that no one had any objections, a smug look flashed in Yi Zhonghai's eyes.

He then nodded to Liu Haizhong, indicating that the other party could begin.

Upon receiving the signal, Liu Haizhong immediately adopted the mannerisms of some of the factory's leaders, slightly raising his head and displaying a serious and earnest expression.

"Alright, the general meeting is now beginning. Everyone, please be quiet and listen to what we have to say."

Liu Haizhong glanced at everyone and, seeing that all their attention was drawn to him, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

Looking at Liu Haizhong, who was putting on airs and trying to act like a leader, Li Qin felt no sense of authority from him whatsoever.

On the contrary, I found Liu Haizhong's writing to be comical and ridiculous, like a tiger drawn but ending up with a dog instead.

Of course, these were all thoughts in Li Qin's mind, and he did not express them.

Li Qin even listened quite attentively.

Because he was really curious about what Yi Zhonghai and the other two were trying to say by suddenly holding a hospital-wide meeting.

At this moment, Liu Haizhong had no idea that in Li Qin's mind, he was a ridiculous and laughable figure.

After seeing that everyone had quieted down, he spoke again;

"The main reason we're calling this meeting is to discuss something that's relevant to many of you here."

Liu Haizhong seemed to enjoy the attention and wanted it to last a little longer, so he didn't get to the point directly but kept it a secret.

Many people present found this approach somewhat annoying, but Liu Haizhong was, after all, the second uncle.

Moreover, he was a well-known forging worker at the steel rolling mill.

Many of the residents in the courtyard house also had members working at the steel rolling mill, so naturally they didn't want to offend Liu Haizhong over a trivial matter.

Therefore, even though many people were unhappy, no one said anything.

Others could tolerate Liu Haizhong, but He Yuzhu wouldn't put up with him and spoke up directly;

"Second Uncle, stop with the nonsense and just get to the point. Everyone needs to go home and rest as soon as the meeting is over."

He Yuzhu showed Liu Haizhong absolutely no respect.

The main reason is that Liu Haizhong is a worker in the workshop, while He Yuzhu works in the logistics canteen.

Although they worked in the same factory, they belonged to different departments, so He Yuzhu wasn't afraid of Liu Haizhong at all.

Liu Haizhong was enjoying the power that came with being the second uncle when He Yuzhu suddenly interrupted him.

Liu Haizhong's face immediately showed dissatisfaction.

His gaze toward He Yuzhu immediately turned gloomy.

However, before Liu Haizhong could say anything, He Yuzhu's lifelong enemy, Xu Damao, suddenly spoke up.

"Shazhu, how dare you speak to Second Uncle like that? No one else said anything, but you couldn't help it. You seem to have a problem with Second Uncle."

This was a blatant provocation, and many people present could see it.

Even Liu Haizhong himself may have sensed something, but Liu Haizhong's personality dictated that even if he realized Xu Damao was stirring things up, he would not.

He still couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with He Yuzhu.

Suddenly, their gazes toward He Yuzhu became even more hostile.

Although He Yuzhu was a bit reckless, he was neither stupid nor foolish.

They naturally noticed Xu Damao's instigating behavior.

Adding to the events that occurred before the meeting, her dissatisfaction with Xu Damao grew even stronger, and her gaze towards Xu Damao became increasingly angry;

"I was talking to Second Uncle, what are you doing interrupting, you grandson Xu Damao? I think you're asking for a beating, or should I, your Uncle Zhu, give you a good spanking?"

While speaking, he didn't forget to flex his wrists, as if he was really about to make a move against Xu Damao.

Getting Xu Damao to talk to He Yuzhu was no problem, but getting him to fight was something Xu Damao was unwilling to do.

They met when they were teenagers.

Whether it was due to incompatible birth charts or some other reason, the two had been at odds since childhood.

However, Xu Damao never gained the upper hand in any of his attacks.

Over the years, Xu Damao has come to realize that it is impossible to suppress He Yuzhu by force.

Xu Damao, who considered himself a smart man, would naturally not knowingly fight his opponent when he was outmatched.

He then stopped responding to He Yuzhu's words.

This left He Yuzhu feeling somewhat helpless.

I instinctively wanted to say some harsh words.

But at that moment, Li Qin noticed that when He Yuzhu was scolding Xu Damao, the smile on Xu Fugui's face disappeared.

His face darkened, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he looked at He Yuzhu.

Seeing that He Yuzhu seemed to want to say something even more offensive, Xu Fugui's eyes became even more hostile.

Among the people present, there was actually one other person who also noticed that Xu Fugui's expression was off;

That was Yi Zhonghai, who had always sat in the main seat.

Having been neighbors for many years, Yi Zhonghai was quite familiar with Xu Fugui's personality.

Despite Xu Fugui's seemingly ever-present smile and his habit of greeting everyone he meets;

He seemed very kind.

But Yi Zhonghai knew Xu Fugui's true colors;

Cunning, ruthless, patient...

Therefore, when he saw Xu Fugui's expression change abnormally, he knew that he could not sit idly by.

Otherwise, He Yuzhu would really be resented by the other party.

"We're in a meeting right now, Zhu Zi, why don't you sit down properly? Your second uncle is about to get to the point, so listen carefully."

If He Yuzhu is a mad dog that causes trouble everywhere, then Yi Zhonghai is the one holding the leash.

As soon as Yi Zhonghai spoke, He Yuzhu immediately stopped talking and obediently sat back down in his original seat.

However, his gaze would still occasionally drift towards Xu Damao's direction.

Even after the situation was brought under control, Liu Haizhong's expression remained somewhat grim.

He Yuzhu had been so disrespectful to him just now, even mocking him in front of everyone in the courtyard, yet he turned around and acted so obedient to Yi Zhonghai.

This made Liu Haizhong very unhappy.

A hint of anger flashed in his eyes as he looked at He Yuzhu.
