Chapter 514 Qin Huairu quickly retracted her hand
Qin Huairu held the ring, her palms slightly sweaty, her heart beating like a drum. She knew that what she was doing might not be glorious, but the light of the ring seemed to have a kind of magic that made her unable to give it up. She looked back while running, and confirmed that Xu Damao and Sha Zhu had not caught up, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Huairu ran to a remote corner and stopped, breathing heavily. She looked down at the ring in her hand, feeling mixed emotions. This ring was not just an ornament for her, but also a temptation, a temptation that could change her current situation. She knew she shouldn't be fooled by material things, but in this world full of temptations, she was just an ordinary woman and it was difficult for her to be completely detached.
Just as she was lost in thought, a familiar voice interrupted her thoughts: "Qin Huairu, why are you here?"
Qin Huairu looked up and saw that it was Sister Li from the workshop. Sister Li was a warm-hearted person and usually took good care of Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu didn't want Sister Li to see the ring on her hand, so she quickly hid the ring behind her and forced a smile: "Oh, Sister Li, I... I'm just taking a walk."
Sister Li seemed to notice something was wrong with Qin Huairu, and asked with concern, "What's wrong? You don't look well, are you feeling unwell?"
Qin Huairu shook her head: "It's okay, just a little tired."
Sister Li patted Qin Huairu on the shoulder and said, "Don't work too hard. Take care of yourself. Oh, by the way, there's a party in our workshop tonight. You can come and relax."
Qin Huairu wanted to refuse, but thinking that she might be able to distract herself at the party, she nodded: "Okay, Sister Li, I'll go over tonight."
In the evening, the workshop party was very lively. Everyone sat together, eating delicious food and chatting, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Qin Huairu also temporarily forgot about the ring and enjoyed this rare relaxing time with her colleagues.
However, just as the party was about to end, Qin Huairu suddenly saw Xu Damao. He had arrived at the party without her noticing, and was showing off something to others with a smug look on his face. Qin Huairu's heart tightened, fearing that Xu Damao would expose her in public.
Sure enough, Xu Damao soon noticed Qin Huairu. He walked over with a wine glass in hand, with a somewhat provocative smile on his face: "Hey, Qin Huairu, you are here too? How is it, are you still wearing the ring?"
Qin Huairu turned pale and wanted to deny it, but Xu Damao had already reached out and wanted to grab her hand to check. Qin Huairu quickly retracted her hand and held the ring tightly in her palm.
At this time, Sha Zhu stood up and said, "Xu Damao, don't try this on me! Qin Huairu won't fall for your trick!"
Xu Damao sneered: "Humph, whether she is fooled or not is not up to you. Qin Huairu, you know it clearly."
Qin Huairu felt extremely embarrassed and angry. She wanted to refute, but found herself speechless. Just when she was at a loss, Sister Li stood up and said, "Xu Damao, that's enough! We are all colleagues, why do you have to be like this? Qin Huairu is a good girl, don't slander her!"
Xu Damao glared at Sister Li: "Humph, Sister Li, don't be fooled by her! She..."
"Enough!" Qin Huairu suddenly interrupted Xu Damao. She took a deep breath and mustered up her courage to say, "Xu Damao, I admit that I was attracted by the ring, but I didn't promise you anything! I will return the ring to you now!"
As she spoke, Qin Huairu took out a ring from her pocket and threw it fiercely at Xu Damao. Xu Damao was caught off guard and was hit by the ring, with an angry look on his face.
Sha Zhu clapped his hands and cheered: "Good job, Qin Huairu! This is how you should do it!"
Xu Damao was so angry that his face turned red and veins popped out on his forehead. He widened his eyes and roared angrily: "Qin Huairu, you woman really don't know what's good for you! I spoke to you with good intentions, but you treated me like this?" Before he finished speaking, Sha Zhu rushed over like a ferocious lion.
In a flash, Sha Zhu arrived in front of Xu Damao. He stretched out his strong and powerful hands and grabbed Xu Damao's collar tightly like a pair of pliers. Then, Sha Zhu raised his fist and hit Xu Damao mercilessly.
Xu Damao was stunned by the sudden attack. He had no time to react and could only watch as Sha Zhu's fists rained down on him. Hearing a few muffled "bang bang bang" sounds, Xu Damao suddenly felt stars in front of his eyes and his head was buzzing.
However, Sha Zhu did not stop there. He continued to swing his fists and hit Xu Damao again and again. Poor Xu Damao had no power to fight back and could only let Sha Zhu do whatever he wanted like a sandbag. Soon, Xu Damao's face and head were covered with lumps and bruises of various sizes, and he looked miserable.
Xu Damao fell to the ground.
Qin Huairu turned and left.
Sha Zhu spat fiercely on the ground, pointed at Xu Damao with his eyes wide open and cursed: "You Xu Damao, you dare to bully Sister Qin, I will beat you to death today, you heartless thing!" As he said that, he rushed towards Xu Damao with his fists waved.
Xu Damao was so frightened that his face turned pale. He backed away repeatedly, begging for mercy: "No, no, no, Brother Shazhu, I was wrong, isn't that enough? Please forgive me this time!" However, although Xu Damao was in such a state of embarrassment, he knew very well in his heart that he was definitely not the kind of person who could easily swallow this breath. As soon as he turned around, he sneaked into Liu Haizhong's home like a cunning fox.
After seeing Liu Haizhong, Xu Damao cried and complained: "Second uncle, you have to make the decision for me! That damn Shazhu beat me up without knowing the truth, and my whole body hurts!" Liu Haizhong looked embarrassed, waved his hands helplessly and said: "Alas, Xu Damao, it's not that I don't want to help you, you also know that our courtyard is managed by Yi Zhonghai now, and I, a small second uncle, don't have enough weight to speak!"
Hearing this, Xu Damao's eyes rolled and a plan came to his mind. He lowered his voice, leaned close to Liu Haizhong's ear and said mysteriously: "Second Uncle, what if I say I can make you the head of this courtyard?" Liu Haizhong was a little listless at first, but when he heard this, he immediately became energetic, his eyes widened like bells, and he asked anxiously: "Is it true? Xu Damao, don't joke about this kind of thing!" Xu Damao smiled and patted his chest to guarantee: "Second Uncle, when have I ever lied to you! To tell you the truth, I have a close relationship with Director Li in our factory. As long as you are willing to help me vent my anger and get rid of Sha Zhu, I will immediately go to Director Li to say a few good words for you, and I guarantee that you will sit on the throne of the head of this courtyard!"
