Xu Yang listened for a while and finally understood.
One refused to accept it, and the other refused to give up, so the two of them remained in a stalemate.
Xu Yang tried to speak, "I've already bought this thing, so I can't throw it away. Shu Wan, why don't you take it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he received a look of strong disapproval. Xu Yang continued, "It's not free. Old Huo spent a lot of money on this thing. If you give him the money, it doesn't count as helping him, right?"
Xu Yang no longer called Shu Wan "sister-in-law". He had heard clearly that Shu Wan wanted to cut ties with Lao Huo and refused to accept help. He used to think that Shu Wan still had feelings for Lao Huo, but now it seemed that Shu Wan also wanted a divorce.
Since both of them want a divorce, there is really no need to save this marriage.
Shu Wan looked at the things in Huo Zhengye's hands. They were basically what she needed. The compound had no shortage of these things, and Huo Zhengye would not be able to use them even if he took them back.
Shu Wan nodded, "Okay, wait for me, I'll go get the money."
Before Huo Zhengye could speak, Shu Wan went back to her room to get the money and stuffed it into Huo Zhengye's hand. "This money should be enough."
Huo Zhengye wanted to refuse, but seeing Shu Wan's tough attitude and resolute expression, he didn't say a word, turned around and put the things into the house.
Xu Yang followed closely behind.
After putting away the things, Huo Zhengye came to Shu Wan and said, "There's a lot of money."
"The extra money is for running errands." Shu Wan said. Nowadays, when ordering takeout and asking for running errands, there is a delivery fee, which Shu Wan thinks is normal. She bought it at the original price, so she still got a bargain.
Huo Zhengye frowned and said in a low voice, "No need." Then he gave the extra money to Shu Wan.
Shu Wan stepped back repeatedly and refused to accept it. "If you don't want to accept it, remember not to bring anything here again in the future."
Huo Zhengye paused, looked at Shu Wan who was trying to avoid him, and suddenly felt frustrated. Then he silently put the money into his pocket.
After leaving Shu Wan's house, Xu Yang patted Huo Zhengye on the shoulder and said, "Old Huo, once the divorce application is approved, you will finally be free."
Xu Yang was a little emotional. He had originally thought that they could continue to live together, but today, he saw that. Shu Wan didn't like Lao Huo anymore. She moved out so decisively, and she didn't seem sad when she talked about divorce, not to mention her behavior of rushing to sever ties just now.
It's good this way. He knows how much tortured Old Huo was in the past and he sympathizes with him. Now that Shu Wan agrees to divorce, it can be said that the clouds have finally cleared and the moon has appeared.
Old Huo should be very happy now. Xu Yang turned his head and looked at Huo Zhengye.
Seeing that he was frowning and looking gloomy, it was obvious that he was in a bad mood. He whispered, "It's always unsafe for Shu Wan to be alone outside. I can't come out at any time in the army."
Old Huo didn't look happy at all, but worried instead. It seemed that he cared too much about Shu Wan.
Xu Yang suddenly had an incredible thought: Could it be that Old Huo fell in love with Shu Wan?
Xu Yang was shocked by his own thoughts and shook his head. It was impossible. Shu Wan already didn't like Lao Huo, and now Lao Huo liked Shu Wan. Isn't this asking for trouble?
After driving the ridiculous idea out of his mind, Xu Yang said, "Someone I know happens to live nearby. Ask him to keep an eye on Shu Wan. If she has any difficulties, he can lend a hand or contact me."
Xu Yang couldn't help but said, "Old Huo, you..." Are you in love with Shu Wan?
Huo Zhengye's sharp gaze swept over him, and Xu Yang regained consciousness. The words he hadn't said turned on the tip of his tongue, "Are you too concerned about Shu Wan?"
Huo Zhengye was stunned. "I didn't think too much about it. Besides, she is alone, and her parents, brothers and sisters are not around. I thought I would help as much as I can."
Xu Yang was speechless for a long time. How come he didn't know that Lao Huo was so enthusiastic? Lao Huo didn't want to go home to live before, and he didn't seem to worry about Shu Wan when the compound was robbed.
The two left and the room returned to silence.
Shu Wan first packed up the things that Huo Zhengye brought, sorted them into different categories, and put the pots, pans, kerosene stove, ingredients, etc. into the kitchen. Some daily necessities were stored in boxes and taken out when needed.
