After Ding Huizhu finished yelling, she suddenly felt her wrist being released.

She rubbed her wrist, coldly thinking to herself, "This time, no amount of pleading will work."

Then a deep baritone voice said apologetically, "I'm sorry, ma'am, our comrade was impolite, but we meant no harm, please forgive us..."

These words were spoken politely, yet with a hint of strangeness. Ding Huizhu was still wondering why there was a middle-aged man there when she turned around and saw the two people standing behind her.

A middle-aged man with a square face, and a young man with a slightly inexperienced appearance.

Both of them were wearing police uniforms, and the name and the word "police" on their badges made her feel somewhat disoriented.

Perhaps fearing further misunderstanding, the middle-aged police officer proactively showed his identification, saying, "We are from XXX Police Station, we are not bad people."

Are they really police? Why would the police come to my house? Are they here to arrest Xie Li?

Ding Huizhu, no longer caring about the young police officer's earlier offense, hurriedly said, "Police, this time you're going to lock Xie Li up for a few days..."

The middle-aged police officer looked surprised. "Ms. Ding, we're not here to arrest Xie Li. We're here to express our gratitude."

"Madam Xie! You've probably misunderstood..." This was the first female voice to speak up and stop her.

Ding Huizhu turned around and saw several unfamiliar faces sitting in the living room.

Steward Wu and his servants were all present, and there were fruit platters and other items on the table, clearly indicating that they were entertaining guests.

The woman who spoke had already stood in front of Ding Huizhu, dressed in a professional suit, looking capable and neat; her smile was polite yet sharp, she was none other than the remarkable female CEO of the Shen family.

Before Ding Huizhu could ask any questions, Madam Shen smiled and recounted how Xie Li had assisted the police in rescuing the victims and dismantling the illegal organization.

Madam Shen came specifically to escort Xie Li home, and Shen Lian and Su Ying happened to come along as well.

The police said they wanted to thank Xie Li for his bravery and sent someone to Xie Li's home to explain the situation.

"Ms. Ding, we are very sorry, but due to the tight schedule, the banner for recognizing a brave and righteous act is still being made urgently. We will send someone to Xie Li's home later to present the banner and medal!"

The middle-aged police officer said, giving Ding Huizhu a special salute, "Thank you for raising such an outstanding daughter!"

The police had other things to attend to, so after explaining the situation, they said goodbye and left.

As he was leaving, the young police officer couldn't help but mutter a complaint: "Sir, Mrs. Xie clearly doesn't seem like someone who can raise her daughter well. She was just about to hit Xie Li, why are you thanking her..."

These words sounded like a private complaint, but they were clearly conveyed to everyone's ears.

Ding Huizhu's face flushed crimson, and she was so ashamed that she couldn't lift her head.

Only one thought filled my mind: How could this be!

Xie Li actually did a good deed of bravery and righteousness, and was even specially commended by the police!

The person who called her earlier turned out to be a fake policeman, trying to scam her out of her deposit!

Fortunately, she had no intention of bailing Xie Li out, and she didn't panic and transfer the money after receiving a phone call from the other party, so in the end, she didn't suffer any financial loss.

Speaking of financial losses, Xie Li suddenly remembered that she had already refunded Ding Huizhu's tuition fees to the training institution.

"By the way, tell me your account number. I've gotten a refund for the 180,000 yuan tuition fee you paid through the Nuwa Elite Training Academy. I'll transfer it to you now." Xie Li said as he opened his mobile banking app, preparing to make the transfer.
