Father Liu looked at the arguing crowd and quickly stopped them, saying, "Stop arguing. This bicycle belongs to Han Zhiqing, and it's up to him to decide whether to sell it or not. What's the point of you all arguing here with spit flying all over the place, veins bulging in your necks, and looking like you're ready to fight?
