After the call, the police took it very seriously, especially since it was such a serious matter as a kidnapping. They immediately contacted Liu Yuliang to get more details.
Finally, Ye Qing, Xi Quan, and Liu Yuliang went to the police station together.
Ye Qing knew the most, so he recounted everything in detail. However, although he explained it in great detail, the first person to receive the money call was Xu Xiaoyue's younger brother, Xu Xiaoran.
Therefore, the police will definitely need to find out more about the situation from Xu Xiaoran.
Liu Yuliang had already explained Xu Xiaoyue's situation, so the police understood their concern for their grandparents and didn't go to find Xu Xiaoran themselves. Instead, they asked Liu Yuliang to call Xu Xiaoran and ask her to come over.
Because they were still worried, the police went to wait for Xu Xiaoran downstairs and brought him over.
While waiting for Xu Xiaoran to arrive, the police, following their advice, analyzed other possible scenarios, such as whether Xu Xiaoyue's uncles, aunts, and other relatives might also be blinded by greed.
Because none of Ye Qing and the others had considered this possibility at first, they were quite surprised to suddenly hear the police mention it.
However, since Xi Quan was unaware of these matters, he remained silent.
Although Ye Qing had heard some things about Xu Xiaoyue's family from her, Ye Qing could also tell from Xu Xiaoyue's words that those relatives were not really bad. It was just that their own financial situation was not so good, so they did not want to take care of Xu Xiaoyue and Xu Xiaoran, who had suddenly lost their parents.
Moreover, if it were just Xu Xiaoyue at that time, her relatives might have helped. But there was not only Xu Xiaoyue, but also Xu Xiaoran. How old was Xu Xiaoran at that time? How could a boy be raised, sent to school, and then married?
After all, they are just ordinary people, and their concerns are definitely practical.
Therefore, Ye Qing thought it was impossible. However, since Ye Qing had only heard it from Xu Xiaoyue and had never met her relatives, it was not appropriate for her to say what she thought.
As Xu Xiaoyue's husband, Liu Yuliang had met those relatives and was qualified to speak on the matter. After thinking carefully, he said, "It shouldn't be those relatives. They either don't associate with Xiaoyue and her siblings, or if they do, it's probably because they hope Xiaoyue can help them out."
Especially Xiaoyue's uncle and aunt, they felt that it would be best if Xiaoyue could keep earning money, so that they would have no worries in the future. As for whether they wanted to take all of Xiaoyue's money for themselves, that's not true.
Because they know that if Xiaoyue abandons her grandparents, it will be their responsibility. This is the best situation for them. If they need money, they can ask Xiaoyue, and as long as it's not excessive, she'll give it to them. Besides, they don't have to worry about the elderly; Xiaoyue pays for all their medical expenses, even for minor ailments like headaches or fevers.
After saying such a long thing, Liu Yuliang concluded: "If I had to pick the biggest suspect, I think it would be my mother, because my mother's obsession with money is much stronger than Xiaoyue's uncle and aunt. The uncle and aunt are the kind of people who are content with a little wealth."
After listening to Liu Yuliang's explanation, the police nodded repeatedly, pondering his words.
Because Ye Qing had already called Xu Xiaoran, Xu Xiaoran arrived quickly. After meeting him, Ye Qing told him to discuss things with Liu Yuliang and then left. Originally, Ye Qing wanted to go and ask Li Yeming, but the police subtly rejected Ye Qing's idea.
From the police's perspective, since a report had already been filed, it was their job to find someone with information. Moreover, it didn't seem like Ye Qing was the one who did it. However, before things became clear, the police still had to be wary of any possibilities, just in case Ye Qing and Li Yeming were trying to coordinate their statements.
Ye Qing naturally understood the police officer's subtle reminder, and since she understood, she didn't go looking for Li Yeming again.
After taking Ye Qing home, Xi Quan left again. The company has been very busy lately because the Chinese New Year is approaching and the company is going to have a holiday. However, since the company that Xi Quan originally founded has now become a multinational corporation under his management, some of his overseas partners hope to finalize some collaborations before the holiday so as not to delay their time.
Although everyone in the company is looking forward to the holiday, they also hope to finalize the cooperation so that they might receive a generous year-end bonus during the Chinese New Year holiday.
Knowing that Xi Quan was busy, Ye Qing asked him to go when she heard that he had received a call from the company.
Although Ye Qing was still worried about Xiao Yue, now that the police had been called, there was nothing Xi Quan could do, so he could only trust the police.
The two children were still at Xi Quan's grandfather's house. Aunt Zhang only needed to take care of Ye Qing. After thinking about it, Xi Quan went to deal with company matters first. He also wanted to resolve things as soon as possible so he could stay home with Ye Qing.
Although Xi Quan told Ye Qing not to overthink things before leaving, Ye Qing still couldn't help but call Liu Yuliang after Xi Quan left to ask him if there was any progress.
The police questioned Xu Xiaoran about some basic information, and what Xu Xiaoran said was no different from what she had told Ye Qing.
Moreover, Xu Xiaoran's evaluation of her uncle and aunt was similar to Liu Yuliang's.
Based on the known information, Liu Yuliang's mother is the most likely suspect.
As for Jiang Xinya, the police cannot draw any conclusions at this time, since Jiang Xinya has not appeared. However, they have not let go of any possibility and have also investigated the clues related to Jiang Xinya.
As the police began their step-by-step investigation, Jiang Xinya, Xu Ying, and Xu Xiaoyue's mother-in-law had another disagreement, or rather, a conflict.
Ultimately, it all comes down to money.
Xu Ying suggested that the old lady ask Xu Xiaoyue's brother for money. The old lady had no objection and even regretted not thinking of this earlier. So, as Xu Ying and Jiang Xinya had agreed, she gave them the phone number of Xu Xiaoyue's grandparents and called Xu Xiaoran.
According to the plan, they should be calling Xu Xiaoran a second time now to ask how the money preparation is going.
Of course, they all knew that it was already this late and the banks were closed, so they wouldn't be able to get the money today. But in order to give Xu Xiaoran a sense of urgency, they had to make the call carefully.
However, the old lady overheard Jiang Xinya and Xu Ying's conversation and realized that they were going to divide the one million yuan among themselves, without even giving her a share. The old lady was furious and thought, "How can this be allowed!"
So he got into an argument with Jiang Xinya and Xu Ying.
They had kept this a secret from Xu Xiaoyue very well, but they didn't expect that this argument would lead to Xu Xiaoyue finding out.
