Chapter 29 - How come it's you?
Although Huo Chenzhou is usually serious and doesn't smile much, he is a good person. People don't really believe that he would act like a hooligan.
Huo Chenzhou usually avoids Li Xiuying, but Li Xiuying likes to approach him. Huo Chenzhou has a wife, so why would he be interested in Li Xiuying? After all, Huo Chenzhou's wife is much prettier than Li Xiuying.
Someone asked doubtfully, "Grandma Li, is what you're saying true or false? Is that really Commander Huo on the ground? I just don't believe Commander Huo would do such a thing. I saw your daughter greet Commander Huo, but he ignored her."
"If you put it that way, it's really true. Every time I see Li Xiuying going to see Commander Huo, he always avoids her. We haven't seen that man yet. Are you sure he's Commander Huo?"
"That man doesn't seem like Commander Huo to me. Commander Huo doesn't seem that fat. So far, I've only heard Old Lady Li say that the man is Commander Huo. Who knows if it's true or not?"
...
Hearing these people's words, Old Mrs. Li's face turned very ugly. Normally, she would have already started arguing, but thinking about the benefits she could gain later, she pursed her lips and decided to hold back for now.
Just then, someone in the back row turned around and asked the person next to them, "This whole thing is really unexpected. Do you think that person on the ground is Commander Huo?"
The person next to him said coldly, "I don't know."
The voice sounded somewhat familiar. After seeing the other person's face clearly, the man said incredulously, "Commander Huo... Commander Huo."
Upon hearing this, the people around turned their heads and spotted Huo Chenzhou. They blinked, realizing they weren't mistaken, and immediately looked as if they had seen a ghost.
Isn't Huo Chenzhou here?
Who exactly is that man on the ground?
Old Mrs. Li keeps calling him Commander Huo, isn't that a joke?
Zhang Weihong ran from the front row to Shen Zhixia's side. She looked at Huo Chenzhou with excitement on her face: "That old lady Li is really restless. She's leaving in a couple of days, and she still dares to cause trouble. She wants Li Xiuying to frame Commander Huo. Does she think that by doing this, Commander Huo will marry her? What a fool she is. Now she's picked the wrong person. Who knows which unlucky person she's caught."
The others nodded, agreeing with Zhang Weihong's assessment. It was indeed true that Old Lady Li had tried to frame Huo Chenzhou, but she had arrested the wrong person.
They were too impatient; they didn't even glance at the man on the ground.
This was all a play they directed and acted in themselves.
The few people who knew the truth remained silent, watching the elderly women, curious about what they would do next.
Grandma Li pulled Li Xiuying over and commanded, "Xiuying, tell me now, what just happened?"
Li Xiuying blushed, bit her lip, stared at the teasing looks of the crowd, and finally whispered, "Commander Huo invited me here. He said he had something to say to me, but when he arrived, he tore my clothes, and he even touched...touched me."
Someone, watching with amusement, asked, "Where did he touch you?"
Li Xiuying felt embarrassed and annoyed, but she could only reply, "He touched my waist and wanted to continue, but luckily my mother came and subdued him in no time."
Old Mrs. Li pointed at the person on the ground and cursed, "Huo Chenzhou, you are a shameless person! If you like my daughter, then you should get a divorce openly, give a bride price, and then you can date my daughter. Let me tell you, my family's bride price is three thousand yuan, not a penny less. You can't mistreat my daughter. But you actually lay a hand on my daughter. What do you take my daughter for?"
"My daughter's reputation is ruined now, it's all your fault. Luckily I arrived early today and caught you, otherwise my daughter would be finished."
She cried and said, "You must handle this matter properly, or this is not over."
"Everyone, as you have seen, Huo Chenzhou has bullied my daughter because of his status. I will never let him get away with this. I would also appreciate it if you could be my witnesses. My daughter is so pitiful."
Old Mrs. Li usually treated her daughter like a maid, but now she was crying her eyes out, as if she loved Li Xiuying dearly.
She has now made things clear: Huo Chenzhou must pay today. If he doesn't, she will hand him over to the police in front of so many people. She's sure Huo Chenzhou will compromise.
At this moment, more and more people saw Huo Chenzhou. They stared at the person on the ground, becoming increasingly curious about who he was.
"Grandma Li, don't be in such a hurry. You keep saying that the person on the ground is Commander Huo, so you have to let us take a look first. Otherwise, how can we testify for you?" someone said.
Grandma Li remained calm and composed. Since the person was in her hands, she wasn't afraid that he would run away. She pushed the person on the ground and said, "Alright, you can't hide anyway. Turn your head and let people see."
As she spoke, she tried to pry the man's head off, but he covered his face tightly, refusing to let anyone see it. In the struggle, the old lady almost fell over.
Grandma Li: "?"
Those watching couldn't help but laugh.
Grandma Li said angrily, "Do you think that by hiding, everyone will not know that you are Commander Huo? Let me tell you, everyone knows what you have done now. Xiuying, come and lend a hand."
Li Xiuying quickly came over to help Grandma Li. The two of them tried very hard to turn the man's head around, but the man buried his head directly inside his clothes.
"You all should lend a hand..." Old Mrs. Li said to the people watching the play in the front row.
"Okay."
The elderly lady in the front row was enjoying the play, so she went up to the man and pulled him aside. She pinched him hard, and he cried out in pain. The voice sounded somewhat familiar.
With the combined efforts of the three, they finally managed to get the man's head out.
Grandma Gao was still chuckling, but when she saw who it was, she immediately stopped laughing: "Gao Yunchao, wh, how come it's you?"
Chef Gao looked at her, almost in tears: "Mom!"
Grandma Gao pinched his buttocks just now; they're probably all red now.
Now everyone could see the man's face clearly, and gasps of surprise rang out from the surrounding area.
I never expected it to be Chef Gao.
When Grandma Gao saw Chef Gao, she almost fainted.
Li Xiuying's face was deathly pale, and her whole body was trembling, including her lips.
After all this scheming, why is the person in front of her Chef Gao?
What exactly happened?
