Chapter 241 So You're Already Married
It was love at first sight, and the whole process was very romantic. Of course, Huo Xinran couldn't tell all the details, and she simply ignored the part about her drugging Cai Wenhua.
But Shen Zhixia found it all very strange. She believed in love at first sight, but Cai Wenhua and Huo Xinran's story didn't sound like love at first sight at all, and she felt something was off about it.
What exactly did Huo Xinran do to make Cai Wenhua so devoted to her?
Cai Wenhua looked at Huo Xinran with eyes full of love, as if he had fallen in love, but they had only known each other for a day. This made Shen Zhixia feel that he was just acting.
"Sister-in-law, I've already told Mom about Cai Wenhua and me." Huo Xinran's face was full of happiness: "Mom has also agreed to our marriage. She said she hopes I can start a new life. After Comrade Cai and I get married, we will inevitably have more contact in the future. I hope you can bless us."
"Did Mom agree?" Shen Zhixia asked.
Huo Xinran said, "Yes, Mom knows about my relationship with Comrade Cai. She has been to Comrade Cai's house before."
That's too fast.
Huo's mother didn't mention this to her.
Previously, Huo's mother had left halfway through washing the dishes. Could it be that she took that opportunity to go see Huo Xinran?
Shen Zhixia was surprised that Huo Xinran could move so fast, and felt that things were still quite magical.
Huo Xinran said, "Sister-in-law, we didn't intend to trouble you. We just wanted to let you know that I'm getting married. After all, we're all relatives. If you could give me some advice, that would be great. Of course, I definitely won't trouble you, so you don't need to worry. Even if I hold a wedding banquet later, I won't need your help."
Cai Wenhua glanced at Huo Xinran, his eyes full of disapproval. He felt that Huo Xinran was wrong. Their marriage was a big deal, how could they not trouble Commander Huo? They should be troubled. It would be best if everyone was informed of their marriage, so that everyone would know that he had married Commander Huo's sister.
He can't wait to spread the news that he and Huo Xinran are together. It's a very prestigious thing, and everyone will definitely change their attitude towards him because of Huo Chenzhou.
He didn't come from a good background. After being in the army for so long, he was still just a lowly soldier. Although he was a squad leader, it was a position that required him to serve others. But now he was about to turn his life around.
Cai Wenhua's thoughts were racing, but he didn't show it on his face. He just looked at Huo Xinran with a smile, as if he was deeply in love with her.
Shen Zhixia hummed in agreement: "Since you've already spoken to Mom, then you should talk to her about whatever you need to do. I can't make decisions for you."
With Cai Wenhua, an outsider, present, Shen Zhixia didn't want to say anything. After all, behind closed doors, she could make Huo Xinran leave, but she couldn't argue in front of outsiders, lest she become a laughing stock.
The things Huo Xinran did were shady, but in the end, in other people's eyes, Huo Xinran was Huo Chenzhou's sister, and the Huo family would also lose face.
They talked for a long time, and when Huo's mother heard it from inside, she came out, just as Huo Chenzhou came in.
Upon seeing Huo Chenzhou, Cai Wenhua felt nervous but also excited: "Commander Huo!"
Huo Chenzhou glanced at him indifferently, then nodded.
Cai Wenhua said, "Team leader, do you remember me? I was right next to you when we participated in the vegetable planting activity. I was fertilizing the bok choy."
Huo Chenzhou thought for a while, but he had no impression of Cai Wenhua at all. After all, he came into contact with so many soldiers every day, it was impossible for him to remember every soldier clearly. Only those soldiers with special military equipment could he remember their names and appearances.
However, seeing Cai Wenhua's expectant expression, he still gave a perfunctory reply: "Yes, it's you. I vaguely remember you."
Cai Wenhua took it seriously, his face flushed red with joy at his successful climb up the social ladder: "Great, Commander Huo, look, this is fate. I assigned you to a spot before, and now we meet again."
Huo Xinran glanced at Cai Wenhua with displeasure. Why did she feel that seeing Huo Chenzhou was more exciting than seeing her? It was as if Huo Chenzhou was the wife he had chosen.
That's outrageous.
Huo Xinran then said, "Brother, he is the person I plan to marry. I just came to tell you."
Cai Wenhua stood next to Huo Xinran, staring intently at Huo Chenzhou.
Huo Chenzhou was immediately stunned.
Mrs. Huo already knew the whole story, but she didn't expect the two of them to come to her door. Her expression was very complicated. She should have come out to explain, but she didn't know where to begin, so she remained silent for a long time.
Cai Wenhua coughed, gave Huo Chenzhou a military salute, and said with a serious expression, "Commander Huo, just leave your sister to me. Don't worry, I will definitely treat her well."
Huo Chenzhou said, "She is not my sister."
With just one sentence, Huo Xinran's face turned deathly pale. She had thought that Huo Chenzhou would give her some face in front of outsiders, but Huo Chenzhou delivered a direct and devastating blow.
She lost face, but Huo Chenzhou wasn't much better off. How could he do that?
Cai Wenhua was taken aback for a moment, then quickly smoothed things over, saying, "I know she's an adopted sister, but even if she's an adopted sister, she's still a real sister."
Huo Chenzhou remained silent.
Huo Xinran said, feeling wronged, "Brother, I know you have some misunderstandings about me, but no matter what, I will always be your sister. Even if we have any disputes, that's all in the past, so let's not hold it against each other."
Huo Chenzhou sat down and asked, "Are you planning to get married?"
Huo Xinran nodded: "I'm sure."
Cai Wenhua added, "I've made up my mind about Comrade Huo, and I truly want to marry her and live a good life with her. Please grant my request, Commander Huo."
He was determined to seize this opportunity. Once he married Huo Xinran, he would be a superior person. He wanted to see why those people still looked down on him.
Huo Chenzhou said calmly, "I think you've misunderstood. Whether you get married or not is none of my business. I'm just curious. You're already married and haven't gotten divorced yet. Have you told me about this? Otherwise, you'd be committing marriage fraud."
Cai Wenhua froze: "Commander Huo, what did you say? She's already married?"
Huo Chenzhou knew that Huo Xinran hadn't told Cai Wenhua about this. She had only known Cai Wenhua for a short time; it was obvious that she was deceiving him.
