Siheyuan: Taking Out a Spy from the Start

Liu Guangtian transmigrates to a courtyard house in 1958, becoming the second son of Second Master Liu Haizhong. At the very beginning, Liu Guangqi, Jia Dongxu, and the others kill a man while drunk. Egged on by Deaf Granny and Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, a father who favors one son over another, decides to make Liu Guangtian take the blame. At this crucial moment, Liu Guangtian’s System activates. With its help, he not only escapes the fate of taking the blame, but also gains a string of benefits and opportunities for advancement. Jia Zhangshi objects, “Compensation? That spy was clearly shot by my Dongxu. Why does Liu Guangtian get the credit?” Yi Zhonghai declares, “We have to kick Liu Guangtian, that rotten element who doesn’t know how to respect his elders, out of the courtyard!” When Liu Guangqi learns what has happened to Liu Guangtian, he is astonished. “What? I’ve only just become a permanent employee, and Liu Guangtian’s already a leader...” Liu Haizhong sighs, “I’ve spent my whole life walking on thin ice. My biggest regret is making Guangtian take the blame back then...” In the end, Liu Guangtian pulls out his security officer’s ID and says, “I’ll be mediating the neighborhood disputes in Courtyard No. 95 from now on!” Those who once treated him badly immediately become meek and beg him to let them off.
