If Chen Bozhong had not checked the couple's information before coming here, he would probably have been deceived by them.

The opportunity has been given to them, and since they don't want it, he won't be polite.

He made a calm gesture. Not many people saw this scene, but Xu Yating saw it clearly.

She didn't know what this man was going to do, but she was ready to escape.

Originally, she had secretly hidden her household registration. She had made the worst-case scenario plan. If she couldn't leave openly, she would just go to the countryside.

Her actions naturally caught Chen Bozhong's attention. At this moment, he really felt a little regretful. If this child had been personally raised by Brother Xu since childhood, perhaps he could have become an excellent scout.

Most of these retired people have the same idea, which is to hand over their children to the motherland and let them shine. As for whether the children are willing or not, they don't care.

Seeing that he didn't say anything for a long time, the Xu couple felt a little uneasy, but when they thought that Director Wu was willing to pay much less than this, they straightened their backs again.

Although Director Wu didn't give so much, the two families are not particularly far away, and he can still ask his daughter for money in the future. If this person who came from nowhere is really the relative of this money-losing guy, then he must pay for it!

As for the engagement between this money-losing guy and the fool, they have to talk to Director Wu themselves. They don't care about that. As for the money they have collected, it is impossible for them to take it out.

Are you kidding? That’s the money their son will use to marry his wife. No one can take it away!

But the appearance of the police left them dumbfounded.

When people come towards them, they start to play the role of covering up the truth.

Father Xu was a little flustered, but he still pretended to be calm and said, "No, Public Security Comrade, is there some misunderstanding here? We are an honest family and we dare not commit any crime."

The public security comrades had ready-made reasons and didn't waste any time talking to them. They directly took the people back to the police station on the pretext that they had sold their daughter.

Xu Yating was a little dumbfounded. She thought that this mess would continue for a while. After all, she knew her adoptive father very well.

All I can say is that although she is smart, she doesn't dare to think about this point at all because she is in too low a circle and has seen too little.

Most importantly, she had tried to seek help, but the only result was that her adoptive parents abused her even more severely.

From then on, she knew that everything depended on herself. She didn't believe those people could help her, and even thought it was a good thing if those people didn't hold her back.

Seeing that the police were about to take the Xu couple away, the neighbors and passers-by who were watching the excitement were frightened and moved away. Not a single person spoke up for the Xu couple.

It is conceivable how unpopular this couple is in their daily lives, and they don’t even have anyone who shares the same bad taste as them.

Well, actually it’s not that there aren’t any, it’s just that these people don’t dare to say anything now, for fear of getting into trouble.

Xu Yating looked at her adoptive parents being taken away in a daze, but she kept backing away and refused to go to the police station to make any records.

She was afraid that she would fall into the tiger's den before she could escape from the wolf's den.

"Tingting, don't be afraid. Uncle is an old friend of your father. He asked me to come find you as soon as he learned of your existence. He will come to pick you up in person after he finishes his current affairs."

Chen Bozhong could see that the child was resistant to the police, but he didn't know her past and thought that she was just like everyone else, simply afraid of dealing with public officials.

There was no way. No matter how capable he was, he had limited time. There was really not much he could find out. The only thing he could be sure of was that the child in front of him was really his elder brother's child.

As for what she had experienced, he had no idea, otherwise he would not have spoken like that.

Hearing this, Xu Yating shook her head repeatedly, "How can I not go? I don't need any help. I can handle my own affairs."

She refused to go to the police station no matter what. She once saw with her own eyes a girl who was bullied and asked for help being taken away and never came out again.

Of course Xu Yating didn't know that the girl was pretending to be pitiful, but her true identity was seen by the sharp-eyed police officers, so of course she couldn't come out.

Fortunately, Xiao Zhang was quite reliable and directly took out his work permit and letter of introduction to show Xu Yating.

Although he is reliable, Xu Yating pretends to be illiterate.

Although Xu Yating was surprised when she saw their workplace and began to believe them a little, she felt that it was unreal.

Who made her expect so much when she was a child and then stop expecting these things later?

Fortunately, the captain who came hurriedly rescued them. After reading Xiao Zhang's letter of introduction, he told Xu Yating to relax and go with them. If she didn't come back tonight, they would go to Xiao Zhang's workplace to look for her.

So Xu Yating followed Chen Bozhong and others to the Public Security Bureau.

When they arrived at the Public Security Bureau, Chen Bozhong waited for the results of their questioning.

At this time, the Xu couple really didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore. They were invited to the police station for tea. They were afraid of delaying their son's marriage!

You know, their future daughter-in-law is the youngest daughter of the deputy director of the logistics department of the steel plant. They would be heartbroken if they lost such a treasure!

Now they are very cooperative. They answer whatever their comrades ask them honestly. However, they still try their best to flatter themselves.

For example, they glorified their abuse of Xu Yating, saying it was for her own good. As a girl, she must be diligent so that she can have a good life when she goes to her husband's family.

Anyway, they just refused to admit the abuse, and as for the fact that they wanted to "sell" people to fools, they also argued that it was just a normal marriage.

As soon as they finished speaking, they heard the police say that Director Wu had been arrested for committing a crime.

The Xu couple were stunned, and he showed them his testimony about buying a girl to serve his son.

Although they didn't know many words, they knew Director Wu's name and the bright red handprint!

Thinking that Director Wu, who was so capable, had told the truth, the Xu couple no longer dared to play tricks. They were as honest as quails and told him everything about adopting Xu Yating.

As for the money they received, they had no intention of returning it. After all, they had supported Xu Yating for more than 20 years, and the cost was not small.

The fact is, Xu Yating started working at the age of three, cooked on a stool at the age of five, and could support herself from the age of eight.

When they took the public security comrades to retrieve the things, they were dumbfounded.
