He Ting thought to herself: Even if this thing doesn’t taste good, I will finish it.
After they had almost finished buying everything, Han Wanying planned to go get her bicycle. When she arrived at Sister Chen's place, the bicycle had already been equipped with a license plate.
Han Wanying and He Zhen were pushing the cart to go to the police station to register first. Han Wanying said to He Ting, "It's too late to wait for the oxcart at this time. Why don't you go to the state-owned restaurant and wait for me? I'll be right there after I register and have lunch at the same time."
He Ting thought about how she hadn't eaten anything good in the past month, so she decided to go to the state-owned restaurant. "Okay, I'll wait for you there."
Seeing He Ting was about to go to the state-owned restaurant, Yan Shuojing quickly said, "I'll go with Comrade He. You guys go register. I'll protect Comrade He."
When He Ting heard this, she glanced at Yan Shuojing, but didn't say anything. Han Wanying felt that the atmosphere between the two of them was a bit weird, but she didn't say anything either. After all, it was good to have someone accompany He Ting.
The police station was very close, and they arrived in a moment. Han Wanying and He Zhen pushed their bike inside. Unexpectedly, they ran into Captain Wu right after they entered. He looked like he was about to get off work. Seeing Han Wanying pushing her bike, he said, "Han girl, what are you doing?"
Over the past few years, Captain Wu had often sought Han Wanying's help and even wanted her to join them. However, Han Wanying refused. Captain Wu felt sorry for such a promising young police officer who refused to join them. If it were someone else, they would have joined long ago.
When Han Wanying saw Captain Wu, she knew she had arrived at the perfect time. She stepped forward and said, "Captain Wu, I bought a bicycle. Could you please register it for me and my friend?"
Captain Wu then noticed that there was a young man behind Han Wanying. He hadn't noticed before, but when he saw him, he was startled and said jokingly, "Is this your friend? Girl, you're still young. There's no need to rush into finding a partner."
Han Wanying knew Captain Wu had misunderstood and quickly explained, "What are you thinking? This is an educated youth from our village. He just happened to buy a bicycle with me today, so we came to register together. Okay, okay, go and register quickly. My friends are waiting for me at the hotel."
Captain Wu took the bicycle with a smile, then took the bicycle from He Zhen's hand and took the two of them in to register. With Captain Wu there, the registration was completed quickly.
When He Zhen pushed the bicycle out, he looked at Han Wanying's back and felt that he was becoming more and more confused about Han Wanying. She was rich, had connections, and was so familiar with the police station and even involved in the black market. The police had no doubt that Han Wanying, an orphan, could buy a bicycle.
If Wu Dui knew what He Zhen was thinking, he would definitely say, "Although this girl has helped us solve many cases, she also needs money. Her bonus is higher than my salary. Otherwise, why would we want her to join the police force? I'm still skeptical. I even think this girl should have more savings than me."
Coming back to her senses, Han Wanying felt He Zhen's scrutinizing gaze but didn't care. She rode her bike to the state-owned restaurant. After a day of shopping, Han Wanying said that her stomach was already protesting.
He Zhen watched Han Wanying ride away on her bike, and quickly looked away and followed her on his bike.
When they arrived at the state-owned restaurant, He Zhen and Han Wanying parked the car and walked in. They found that they had already ordered the dishes.
He Ting saw Han Wanying and waved quickly. Han Wanying also walked over and sat down next to He Ting. He Ting smiled and said, "Just in time, I just brought the meal up and you came back."
Han Wanying and He Ting started eating. He Ting bought a portion of braised pork, a portion of fried potatoes and two bowls of rice. The portions in the state-owned restaurant were quite generous, and the two dishes were more than enough.
He Ting hadn't eaten meat for a long time, so this meal was the best she had had since she went to the countryside. After eating, He Ting put down her chopsticks, touched her stomach, and said, "I'm so happy."
Han Wanying looked at He Ting and smiled in her heart: I didn't expect He Ting to have this side of her.
Seeing that He Ting had finished eating, Han Wanying said, "Here is the money for this meal, take it." Then she handed He Ting the money and meal ticket she had prepared.
He Ting said, "No, no, this meal is what I'm going to treat you to. You've helped me so much today, how can I have the nerve to ask you for money? Just take it."
Seeing that He Ting was determined not to accept it, Han Wanying kept the money and planned to give it to her secretly later.
At this time, He Zhen and the others had finished eating, and Han Wanying and the others planned to ride their bicycles back.
When they returned to the village on bicycles, the villagers saw someone riding a bicycle and hurried forward to see who it was. Unexpectedly, it was the educated youth and Han Wanying. They immediately wanted to go forward and take a closer look at the bicycle. After all, only the captain's family had one of these things, and now there were two more in the village, so they all wanted to join in the fun.
But they still didn't go up and block the road. Adults might feel embarrassed to block the road, but children were different. They went up and surrounded Han Wanying and her friend's car. Han Wanying had no choice but to get out and push the car.
When the villagers saw Han Wanying getting off the bike and pushing it away, they came forward and asked, "Han girl, is this the bike you bought?"
Han Wanying looked at the aunt in her group and replied, "Yeah."
The woman continued, "I've never seen a car like this before. How much does it cost?"
Han Wanying explained, "This is a bicycle specially designed for women. It costs 187 yuan plus a bicycle ticket."
The villagers were shocked when they heard the price and quickly pulled their children who wanted to touch the car, asking, "How can this car be so expensive?"
"Yeah, it's a bit too expensive. It's still Miss Han who is willing to spend the money."
At this time, some discordant voices were heard: "I don't know what you bought this bike for, especially one specifically for women. What's the point of giving it to women? They will get married in the future anyway. I think it would be better to buy something like He Zhiqing's bike and give it as a dowry so that you can look more presentable."
"Yeah yeah."
Han Wanying looked at these people coldly and said, "I don't think anyone else needs to meddle with my affairs. I have money and I'm willing to buy it. What's it to you?"
The man was speechless because of Han Wanying's blockage. At this time, Liu Guixiang and her daughter-in-law also came. Seeing Han Wanying pushing the car, Liu Guixiang stepped forward and said with a smile: "Han girl is really capable. Now you can buy a car by yourself. Who dares to look down on such conditions? There will be people who want to marry you with a high gift in the future." Obviously, Liu Guixiang also heard what they said just now.
Han Wanying smiled at Liu Guixiang and said, "Auntie is right. If I marry a man who doesn't even have a bicycle and relies on the woman's dowry, I might as well not marry him."
