Chapter 254 I Want to Leave
He's not stupid.
At first, he might not have understood, but after a few days, he felt something was wrong. If Huo Xinran had a good relationship with Commander Huo, why didn't Commander Huo arrange accommodation for her? Huo Xinran was staying at his place, and Commander Huo didn't seem to care at all.
The other members of the Huo family also treated Huo Xinran as if she didn't exist.
Huo Xinran ate and drank at his place, and he felt like a great victim.
He had a lot of anger inside him that he couldn't let out.
Huo Xinran rolled her eyes and said, "Didn't I already say that we have a very good relationship? We're like brother and sister."
Cai Wenhua only realized this now, but it was too late. They were now in the same boat, bound together by life and death. She planned to be tied to him for life.
Even if Cai Wenhua regrets it, that won't do.
"Do you think I'd believe what you're saying? The way you interact with Commander Huo is completely wrong. He doesn't treat you like a sister, and he doesn't care about your affairs at all. I don't think he ever intended to get involved in your business from the beginning." Cai Wenhua's face was extremely ugly.
Huo Xinran knew, of course, that Huo Chenzhou had no intention of caring about her at all. He didn't even intend to acknowledge her as his sister anymore. The only reason she still had some contact with the Huo family was because she had been shameless and persistent. Otherwise, she wouldn't even be able to say a word to Huo Chenzhou.
But she had no choice. No matter how badly Huo Chenzhou treated her, she still had to pretend to be close to them. She knew that her only dignity was because she was Huo Chenzhou's sister. If she didn't have that status, no one would even glance at her.
Therefore, she absolutely cannot abandon this identity!
Even if the Huo family didn't want to have anything to do with her, she still had to put on a brave face and accept their cold shoulder; that was the only thing she could offer.
Even if she only has one identity in public, outsiders will still show her some respect.
Huo Xinran refused to admit it, saying, "Do you know what my brother said when I went to the Huo family today?"
Cai Wenhua had originally planned to go today, but Huo Xinran didn't want him to go. She was afraid that she would have a conflict with the Huo family and that Cai Wenhua would find out.
Cai Wenhua was in no good mood. He said unhappily, "Didn't you already say that Commander Huo refused to help you with your divorce? What else can you say that's nice?"
Huo Xinran said, "No, my brother said he's not very satisfied with you, so he's unwilling to help me with the divorce. He said he'll only help me if I find a better partner."
Cai Wenhua fell silent immediately.
He frowned and said, "Did Commander Huo really say that? No, I don't think he's that kind of person."
Huo Xinran sneered, "You're quite confident, aren't you? Have you ever seen my brother give you a kind look? You always try to get along with him, but you just ignore him."
Cai Wenhua remained silent.
Huo Xinran is right. He had been trying to curry favor with Huo Chenzhou, but Huo Chenzhou didn't respond to him at all. Although Huo Chenzhou's attitude towards him was polite, it was still too indifferent.
He initially thought it was because he wasn't very familiar with Commander Huo, since Commander Huo had always been aloof and not very close to others. But after hearing Huo Xinran's words, he realized something else: perhaps Huo Chenzhou was dissatisfied with him.
Huo Xinran knew, of course, that Huo Chenzhou was very cold towards Cai Wenhua. After all, Huo Chenzhou didn't even acknowledge her, his adopted sister, so how could he possibly approve of the person she had chosen?
She continued, "My brother wants me to find a high-ranking military officer, preferably one of his comrades. Only then can I become his support. You are just a lowly soldier with marginal power, of no use to him. That's why he doesn't approve of us being together."
Cai Wenhua's initial anger gradually turned into guilt.
He already harbored the desire to curry favor with Huo Chenzhou, so he naturally assumed that others would feel the same way. It was also normal for Huo Chenzhou to want to find Huo Xinran a more capable husband.
Huo Xinran said, "My first marriage was a complete failure, so I didn't have the courage to start a second marriage. I rejected my brother, and he got angry and said he wouldn't help me anymore."
She glanced at Cai Wenhua and said calmly, "I just think you're a decent person, which is why I want to continue our relationship."
Cai Wenhua was completely stunned. He had only used Huo Xinran, but judging from Huo Xinran's expression, she seemed to have some feelings for him.
Whether Huo Xinran liked him or not was of no concern to Cai Wenhua; what he cared about was getting benefits from Huo Xinran.
Of course, if Huo Xinran really likes him, then it will be good for him.
Huo Xinran yawned and said, "I'm starving. I'll go see if there's anything to eat."
As she spoke, she turned and went to the kitchen, intending to find some food to fill her stomach. Cai Wenhua just stared at her back with a serious expression. He was calculating Huo Xinran's value in his heart. If he wanted to get married, he would have done so long ago. It's just that the women that people introduced to him were all of lower status than him, and he didn't like them at all.
Huo Xinran was the best woman he could ever meet.
He can't let go.
Huo Chunyan is doing a great job. She has a promotion opportunity. If she can seize this opportunity, not only will her salary increase, but her position will also be promoted.
She started as an ordinary nurse, but through her ability and hard work, she rose to the position of head nurse, and now she's even climbing the ranks.
Huo Chunyan was very happy.
But then came news that she was to go to the Northwest.
The Northwest is very far away, the environment there is harsh, and there has been a recent plague that has caused many people to fall ill and die. It is precisely for this reason that she was sent to the Northwest.
Huo Chunyan had the opportunity to consider it, but she hesitated. If she went this time, it would be a year, but if she went, she would definitely get a promotion and a raise when she came back.
If she weren't married, she definitely would have gone, since she's a workaholic. But now she's a little reluctant to part with Sun Baojun, so she told him about it and discussed it with him.
After hearing this, Sun Baojun frowned and said worriedly, "The conditions in the Northwest are very poor. Will you be able to get used to going there alone?"
Huo Chunyan said, "These are not problems. I have suffered before and I am not afraid of any hardship. I'm just afraid that you won't support me."
After all, they were newlyweds, and she was going to be away for such a long time. No one would be willing to do that. In any case, if Sun Baojun suddenly had to leave her for such a long time, she would definitely feel uncomfortable.
