Chapter 289 This was a gift from Commander Huo.
At this moment, Huo Chenzhou was leading a group of people to inquire about the perpetrator.
The person who bumped into Huo Chunyan left in a hurry. Because they walked so fast, no one saw what the person looked like. Only an old lady saw a bicycle.
Huo Chenzhou then inquired, "Have you seen anyone riding a bicycle around here? It's a pretty new bicycle, a Flying Pigeon brand."
Everyone said they didn't see it. Actually, very few people own a bicycle, but it happened so suddenly that no one had time to react. When asked, they didn't know who had ridden the bike.
Just then, Zhang Weihong said, "I saw Huo Xinran today. She was riding her bike next to Huo Chunyan. She seemed suspicious. The bike she was riding was a Flying Pigeon brand bicycle, and it looked brand new."
Huo Xinran...
Huo Chenzhou said, "Let's go find Huo Xinran."
At this moment, Huo Xinran felt very disgusted. Why was she lingering near Huo Chunyan for no reason, especially since she was riding a bicycle that could very well be the vehicle involved in the accident?
Huo Xinran had no idea about this. She originally wanted to show off her bicycle, but it was strange that she didn't run into Huo Chunyan or any other members of the Huo family today, which made her feel a little disappointed.
She doesn't know many people here, so if she buys something but has no one to show it off to, it will be meaningless.
When she returned, Cai Wenhua was stunned when she saw the bicycle she had bought: "You bought a bicycle?"
This thing must be very expensive.
Cai Wenhua knew that Huo Xinran didn't have much money, so he gave her forty yuan, which wasn't enough to buy a car.
Cai Wenhua had actually considered buying a bicycle before so he could ride it to the military camp, but the price was too high, so he gave up. However, Huo Chunyan bought it without even blinking.
“Yes.” Huo Xinran said smugly.
She was about to tell Cai Wenhua about how she had gotten such a great deal when Cai Wenhua said with concern, "You could have bought something else with that money. I gave you the money for living expenses, so you could buy some groceries, not this kind of thing."
Huo Xinran's face immediately turned cold, and she immediately lied: "I didn't buy this bicycle, my brother gave it to me."
These words immediately silenced Cai Wenhua: "It was given to me by Commander Huo."
Seeing that Cai Wenhua was intimidated, Huo Xinran was secretly delighted: "Yes, this bicycle costs more than two hundred yuan. I don't have that kind of money. My brother said that this is my dowry, so he bought it for me. Do you have any objections?"
Cai Wenhua dared not have any objections. He wished he could worship this car. He asked cautiously, "Has Commander Huo accepted me now and no longer looks down on me?"
He had always felt that Huo Chenzhou's lack of closeness with Huo Xinran stemmed from his dissatisfaction with him, but now that Huo Chenzhou was willing to give Huo Xinran such an expensive gift, he must have already accepted them.
Huo Xinran snorted: "Who said that? I'm his sister, and he definitely doesn't have any ill feelings towards me. But you're different; you still have a long way to go."
Cai Wenhua asked nervously, "Then what should I do? Should I go find him?"
He really wanted to get on Huo Chenzhou's good side, but even after marrying Huo Xinran, he still couldn't find a good way.
Huo Xinran said, "You absolutely mustn't do that. My brother dislikes people who take the initiative to get close to him."
She was very adept at telling lies, and she knew that Cai Wenhua would never ask Huo Chenzhou for confirmation.
Therefore, her lie will never be exposed.
However, at that moment, the door was suddenly opened, and Huo Chenzhou, who was in the lead, was very imposing. He gave a wink to a soldier next to him, and the soldier immediately took her into custody, just like he was taking a prisoner.
Huo Xinran had never seen anything like this before, and her legs went weak with fear.
"Brother, what are you doing?"
Huo Chenzhou looked at her with a stern face, his expressionless face exuding an imposing aura that inexplicably instilled fear in others.
Huo Xinran could no longer maintain her act and could only say tremblingly, "Commander Huo."
The soldier holding her down pointed to a bicycle nearby and asked, "Is this your bicycle?"
Huo Xinran nodded: "It's mine."
Huo Chenzhou looked at the brand-new bicycle and sneered, "You bought it."
Huo Xinran didn't know what he meant by asking these questions, but she dared not lie at all: "Yes, I bought it."
Cai Wenhua was completely confused. Wasn't this bicycle a gift from Huo Chenzhou to Huo Xinran? Why was Huo Chenzhou questioning the bicycle's origin, while Huo Xinran admitted to buying it?
Today was really strange.
The soldier said, "Comrade Huo Chunyan miscarried today. She was hit by a Flying Pigeon bicycle. The person who hit her ran away. I have checked the people in the vicinity today. There are only four Flying Pigeon bicycles. However, two of them are always on duty and have never come in the direction of Comrade Huo Chunyan. The other person's bicycle is very old, so it could not be him."
"Then it's only you, Comrade Huo Xinran. If we're not mistaken, it was you who bumped into Comrade Huo Chunyan. Someone even saw you loitering around Huo Chunyan today."
Huo Xinran was completely stunned. She felt like her mind was going blank: "Huo Chunyan miscarried?"
Normally, she would be overjoyed; this was fantastic news! The person she envied most was Huo Chunyan.
Why should Huo Chunyan live such a good life? She should be punished.
But even if Huo Chunyan is unlucky, she shouldn't be involved with her in any way.
"Did you do it?"
Huo Xinran desperately tried to explain: "I didn't do it. I didn't do anything. I went to look for Huo Chunyan today, but I didn't see her."
Huo Chenzhou asked, "What are you going to do with her?"
Huo Xinran was extremely embarrassed, but she could only honestly say, "I'm going to show off the bicycle I bought."
Cai Wenhua stepped forward at this moment: "Commander Huo, Xinran..."
Huo Chenzhou said coldly, "This matter has nothing to do with you. We are interrogating Huo Xinran now, so I hope you can shut up."
This tone wasn't one he was speaking to his own sister; after all, Huo Chenzhou had used the serious word "interrogation."
Cai Wenhua dared not offend Huo Chenzhou, so he could only keep his mouth shut.
Huo Xinran was completely flustered. Looking at Cai Wenhua's cowardly appearance, she felt a surge of anger. She was Cai Wenhua's wife, yet he didn't save her and just backed down like that.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Huo Xinran's mind: "Commander Huo, when did Huo Chunyan have her accident?"
