Chapter 781: 784 Black and White Photo_1
Huo Qichang shook his head.
Commissar Zhang looked at Huo Qichang, "Why don’t you ask? You should take the initiative."
Huo Qichang didn’t make a sound and sullenly returned to his office.
Commissar Zhang followed him over. When they reached Huo Qichang’s office, he couldn’t help but ask, "There’s something that I’ve been thinking about that seems strange, and I don’t know if I should ask."
Huo Qichang looked at Commissar Zhang.
Commissar Zhang said, "Jinnan’s wife looks a bit like the girl in the marriage certificate photo with Gu Jizhou back then."
Huo Qichang glanced at Commissar Zhang, "It’s the same person."
"Really?"
Commissar Zhang thought about a photo he had seen years ago, his gaze settling on Huo Qichang, "Did this girl and Jinnan know each other long ago?"
Huo Qichang raised his head to look at Commissar Zhang, "They didn’t know each other."
Commissar Zhang shook his head, "Impossible, I’ve seen her picture before, taken by Jinnan."
Huo Qichang stared at Commissar Zhang, "When did this happen?"
The matters of the Huo Family, he had overheard a bit. The old man was too domineering, too protective, and it hurt the hearts of his children and grandchildren. Old Huo was someone who kept everything inside. If things continued this way, he would lose both his son and his wife.
Commissar Zhang stood there, thinking carefully, "About seven years ago, I think. I don’t remember the exact time. I went to Gu Jizhou’s dorm and accidentally saw the photo he placed on the bed."
Huo Qichang didn’t speak, "..."
Commissar Zhang, recollecting, said, "At that time, I thought it was Qin Shaoling. I even joked with Gu Jizhou: ’Kid, are you trying to compete with your uncle for a wife?’ He told me it wasn’t Qin Shaoling. I hadn’t come to my senses yet when he quickly put away the photo."
Huo Qichang frowned, "Are you sure it was taken by Anan?"
Commissar Zhang, "Absolutely Jinnan, there’s no mistake, a black and white photo. Gu Jizhou doesn’t have that hobby, and within the military district, the only one who likes to take photos and develop them himself is Jinnan, and he always has a preference for black and white photos."
Huo Qichang sat there, took off his military cap, placed it on the table, and gripped it hard with shaking hands.
So, it was Anan who fell for Qin Huan first, but Jizhou made his move earlier. No wonder he didn’t know about the grudges Qin Huan had with the Wen Family and secretly had a hidden marriage for five years.
Sitting there for a while, he looked up at Commissar Zhang, "Thank you."
Commissar Zhang patted his shoulder, "Show Xiaoqin some gestures, she holds you in her heart, she will forgive you. Also, don’t be overly critical of Anan. To put it bluntly, if you gave the children half the tolerance you had for Jizhou back then, they definitely wouldn’t reject you."
Huo Qichang sat there, silent, feeling like he was suffocating.
Commissar Zhang sighed, "We don’t spend much time at home with our wives and children because of the military duty. We already owe them and should treat them even better."
Huo Qichang didn’t say anything.
"I’m going now," Commissar Zhang left his office.
Huo Qichang sat there, thought for a while, and then made a call to Huo Jinnan.
Huo Jinnan saw the incoming call ID, put on a Bluetooth headset with one hand and answered, "Is there anything else?"
Huo Qichang didn’t know how to start.
Huo Jinnan said, "If there’s nothing, I’m hanging up."
Huo Qichang hurriedly spoke up, "Anan, I’m sorry, I misunderstood you. I had no idea Jizhou... he could actually do such a thing?"
Huo Jinnan’s brow furrowed, "What thing?"
Huo Qichang said softly, "The matter with Huanhuan."
Huanhuan?
