Huo Jinyan said directly: "No need, I will give you the amount you deserve."
"Why are you being so polite to me? The person you just saved is the daughter of our captain. The captain is very kind to us. If you save his daughter, you are saving our daughter! This little thing is nothing. Take it quickly, take it quickly."
Not only him, but the other vendors also brought the best things from their stalls to Huo Jinyan.
"Hero, you're awesome today. Take these crabs back and eat them. Come to my place next time and I'll give you as many crabs as you want."
"I still have shrimp here."
"I have razor clams, cockles, and conchs."
"I still have..."
A group of people immediately surrounded Huo Jinyan and tried to stuff something into his mouth.
And he seemed to be determined not to let Huo Jinyan go unless he wanted to.
The enthusiasm of the vendors really makes it hard to say no.
"No, no, I can't take your things."
Huo Jinyan was unable to cope with the situation and was almost pushed down.
As a soldier of the people, how could he accept money from ordinary people!
This is not just about the discipline in the army, but also about his personal qualities.
I will never covet a single needle or thread from the common people!
Seeing that more and more people came to deliver seafood, he didn't dare to stay any longer. He took Jiang Mengning's hand, escaped from the crowd, and ran towards the parking lot.
If I don’t leave now, I’m afraid I won’t be able to leave today.
Unexpectedly, the fishermen refused to give up and chased after him, shouting as they went. It was not until Huo Jinyan got into the car that they understood.
So the hero is an officer! No wonder he has such a strong sense of justice.
People of this era really like officers.
The fishermen became even more enthusiastic after learning the truth.
The moment Huo Jinyan and Jiang Mengning got into the car, they threw the seafood in their hands directly into the car.
As long as there is a little gap, they will not miss it.
After a while, there was already a lot of seafood in the car.
Huo Jinyan had no time to stop him and had to drive away quickly.
But when he left, he saluted them to express his gratitude.
Only after driving a long distance did Huo Jinyan breathe a sigh of relief.
He parked the car on the side of the road and looked at the pile of seafood in the back seat, feeling troubled.
What made him even more troubled was Jiang Mengning's lifeless attitude.
She is rarely like this.
"What's wrong with you? Why aren't you talking?"
I didn't offend her!
Jiang Mengning crossed her arms, glanced at him sideways, snorted, and turned to look out the window.
He didn't say a word, but it seemed like he said a lot.
So much so that Huo Jinyan felt that Jiang Mengning was scolding him.
My head is buzzing.
The eldest lady didn't know what made her unhappy, so he hurried to comfort her!
He pulled her arm and said, "Are you angry because I didn't buy the geoduck you wanted?"
Captain Huo is actually quite straight. He doesn't spend much time with women and finds it difficult to understand women's minds.
"Or I'll go buy it now."
He really wants to drive back.
Jiang Mengning made him angry again.
She turned around and glared at him again.
"You look like a geoduck."
"No, you're not as big as a geoduck."
Huo Jinyan: "..." As expected, she was still very concerned about the image of clams.
"There's no comparison." He didn't think he could be better than something that looked illegal.
Jiang Mengning was choked and suddenly stopped talking.
She pouted, her eyes were wet, and she looked like she was about to cry but not crying, which made people feel distressed.
Huo Jinyan was stunned and a little at a loss.
After thinking about it carefully, I seemed to understand: Maybe I scared you just now. "
Jiang Mengning could no longer control the bitterness in her eyes, and rushed over and hugged Huo Jinyan.
"Ugh...you bastard, I thought you were going to leave me alone!"
She really cried, there was no acting at all.
This was Jiang Mengning that had never been seen before. She was so weak and helpless now, like a homeless child, so pitiful that it made people feel pity.
Huo Jinyan could even sense the panic in her emotions, the kind of panic that came from being abandoned and left alone.
This idea is actually quite strange.
Jiang Mengning has been spoiled since she was a child and has never lacked care and love.
So she has always been carefree, and there has never been a side in her personality that shows a lack of love.
But Huo Jinyan just had that intuition. He felt that Jiang Mengning's appearance and inner self were actually different.
She was hiding some unknown secrets, secrets that she was very afraid of being abandoned again.
Huo Jinyan felt warm tears sliding down his neck.
It was she who was crying, literally shedding pearls.
My heart tightened.
My whole body became restless.
He never dared to hope that he could leave much of a mark in her heart. Even if she agreed to go back with him, even if she only liked him a little bit, he would be satisfied.
But he seemed to have really underestimated his position in the girl's heart.
When she saw him in danger, she would anxiously say that she wanted to scare her son.
Seeing that he almost couldn't come back, I would cry my heart out.
At this moment, she was like a child, curled up in his arms and crying bitterly.
Such feelings are really, really heavy.
It was so serious that he was afraid of disappointing the girl.
But, since he has chosen her, how could he possibly let her down?
Never in this life.
He leaned over, cupped her face, and said softly, "Every time I go on a mission in the army, I'm always extremely cautious, fearing for my life. Over the years, I've received many awards, both large and small, and have faced the enemy head-on many times. But since I joined the army, I've never suffered more injuries than the dog bites I received as a child."
