Chapter 440 Hidden Growing Rift
Don't be fooled by He Yuzhu's quick agreement now; anyone who knows He Yuzhu's personality knows that this is just a verbal promise, and he will definitely change his mind later.
Unless He Yuzhu experiences some major upheaval, it is impossible to change He Yuzhu's situation.
Yi Zhonghai was well aware of this, so he didn't expect that a single sentence from him could change the other party.
Or to be more precise, if He Yuzhu really changed like this, he would be worried.
Upon hearing He Yuzhu's agreement, Yi Zhonghai smiled faintly.
They then began brainwashing He Yuzhu again:
"I know that because of what happened in the past, you have some resentment towards your second uncle, but no matter what, he is still an elder."
As the saying goes, there are no wrong elders, only inconsiderate descendants.
"You need to show more respect to Second Uncle from now on, do you hear me?"
As he finished speaking, Yi Zhonghai's expression became very serious.
Liu Haizhong saw He Yuzhu's dissatisfaction with Liu Yuzhu as a good thing, but he couldn't allow He Yuzhu to develop a habit of disrespecting his elders.
Otherwise, wouldn't we treat him the same way in the future?
When He Yuzhu heard Yi Zhonghai's words, although he was still somewhat unconvinced, he suppressed his smile out of respect for Yi Zhonghai.
Then he nodded somewhat reluctantly.
Upon seeing this, Yi Zhonghai did not say anything.
However, he felt that He Yuzhu's thinking still had some problems and that he would need to be further guided in the future.
As for now, Yi Zhonghai has no intention of continuing to speak.
He knew very well that brainwashing someone was not something that could be done overnight.
It definitely requires a long period of continuous brainwashing.
Moreover, saying too much in a short period of time will not only fail to accelerate the brainwashing process, but may even have the opposite effect.
For example, it can provoke the other party's resistance.
In particular, He Yuzhu himself is a bit stubborn.
It is even more important to pay attention to the degree of this.
So after saying all that, Yi Zhonghai pretended to show some concern for He Yuzhu;
For example, in life, at work...
Of course, this concern was limited to words; from beginning to end, Yi Zhonghai did not take any concrete action or make any real contribution.
The main selling point is affordability; aside from spending some time talking, nothing else is required.
In other words, it's all talk and no action.
The key point is that He Yuzhu actually falls for this approach.
Originally, He Yuzhu was somewhat dissatisfied and even resentful about Yi Zhonghai's statement that Liu Haizhong should be respected.
But now, I don't feel even the slightest bit of dissatisfaction.
It has to be said that Yi Zhonghai has a very thorough understanding of dog training.
They clearly knew that after a beating, they would be given a piece of candy.
After sensing that he had made great progress in taming He Yuzhu, Yi Zhonghai ended the conversation.
The two then returned to their respective homes.
Let's leave aside what happened after Yi Zhonghai returned home.
Let me tell you about what happened after He Yuzhu went home.
After He Yushui went home first, she waited patiently for He Yuzhu to return.
They thought He Yuzhu would be back soon, but they waited and waited for a long time before He Yuzhu finally returned home.
Upon seeing He Yuzhu return, He Yushui's face first showed a hint of joy, but then she revealed a look of dissatisfaction.
In He Yushui's mind, she and He Yuzhu were siblings and should be the closest people in the courtyard.
Correspondingly, they are each other's most important people.
However, after some recent events, He Yushui suddenly felt that the truth might not be so.
Perhaps it was true in the past, but things have changed now.
This instilled some fear in He Yushui's heart.
She worried that after her father, He Daqing, her only remaining relative, her brother He Yuzhu, would also abandon her.
It was precisely because of this concern that He Yushui cared even more about He Yuzhu, and became worried when He Yuzhu did not return for a long time.
Upon seeing He Yuzhu return, He Yushui instinctively asked:
"Brother, what did the old man want to see you about? Why did he take so long?"
Upon hearing He Yushui's words, He Yuzhu's smile vanished instantly.
He was completely unaware of He Yushui's complex feelings and worries.
Instead, he waved his hand impatiently and said:
"Children shouldn't meddle in adult matters. Just focus on your studies every day and don't cause me any trouble."
He Yushui, who had been looking forward to this, suddenly lost her composure upon hearing these words.
A look of sadness flashed across her face.
There was a deep sense of sorrow in his eyes.
Unfortunately, He Yuzhu still didn't realize these things. Perhaps in He Yuzhu's mind, He Yushui was still the same ignorant child she used to be.
He didn't realize that He Yushui had grown up a lot and was already sensible.
Sensing He Yuzhu's impatience, He Yushui wisely refrained from arguing or pressing the issue, and simply shut up and stopped talking.
He Yuzhu still didn't notice anything amiss.
On the contrary, He Yuzhu was very satisfied with He Yushui's "obedience".
And so, two people who should have been closest gradually drifted apart because of certain events.
Although it's not visible now, once the rift forms, it won't be so easy to eliminate.
Moreover, it will be planted in your heart like a seed.
As misunderstandings accumulate and time passes, they slowly take root and sprout, eventually growing into towering trees.
Li Qin was completely unaware of what happened at the Intermediate People's Court.
After Liu Haizhong announced the end of the meeting, Li Qin and Xu Damao did not hesitate at all and immediately got up and took their small stools back to the backyard.
After saying goodbye to Xu Damao, Li Qin went home alone.
Li Qin had just invited Xu Damao to his home for tea, and Xu Damao was somewhat tempted.
However, Xu Damao was a man of principle and did not act recklessly simply because of his close relationship with Li Qin.
Although Li Qin had previously said that anyone who wanted tea could come to his house anytime.
But Xu Damao could not possibly do that.
Therefore, he still refused Li Qin's invitation with great perseverance.
Li Qin simply smiled and didn't say anything more.
In fact, he was quite satisfied with Xu Damao's sense of propriety.
Xu Damao was indeed the only person Li Qin could consider a friend in the courtyard.
He is also willing to share some of his possessions with Xu Damao.
However, they also need their own private space.
Li Qin returned home alone and went straight to his study.
Sitting in the study, Li Qin recalled what had happened at the conference and finally sighed with some disappointment.
"I didn't expect today's college-wide meeting to end so easily; it's really disappointing."
At this moment, his emotions were somewhat complicated.
As someone who treats the entire academy's meeting like a monkey show, he found today's opera performance rather bland, which he found quite disappointing.
