Zhuang Sheng came back to his senses and hummed, then turned around and walked quickly towards the living room.
He picked up the phone and was about to call the police when Zhuang Qiang quickly walked over and pulled the phone line.
Zhuang Qiang's actions puzzled Zhuang Sheng, who asked, "Dad, what are you doing?"
Facing her question, Zhuang Qiang did not answer, but instead asked him: "I am asking you, what are you doing? Why are you calling so late at night?"
In response to Zhuang Qiang's question, Zhuang Sheng said, "Something was lost at home. I'm going to call the police. This is no small matter."
"Something was lost?" Zhuang Qiang looked puzzled. He asked, "Is it really that exaggerated? You and Liu Ruonan are so rich, why would you call the police if you lost something?"
Zhuang Qiang's words really displeased Zhuang Sheng. He said sternly, "No matter how rich Ruonan and I are, we didn't get it by force. How can we tolerate a thief stealing things so casually? We must call the police and bring him to justice. He must go to jail."
Zhuang Sheng was furious and spoke in an angry tone. He said this to Zhuang Qiang, who was in a daze.
Zhuang Qiang asked him, "How much stuff did you lose? Is it worth it to go to jail?"
"No matter how much, stealing is wrong, and the police must handle it." Zhuang Sheng's attitude was very serious.
Seeing him like this, Zhuang Qiang said, "But I just cut the phone line. You can't call the police tonight. Let's do it tomorrow."
Zhuang Sheng looked at the broken phone line and didn't give up. He said, "I'll go out and find a phone to call the police..."
Just as he was about to leave, his arm was grabbed by Zhuang Qiang, who asked, "Do we really have to call the police?"
Zhuang Sheng hummed, then said, "Of course. The safe contains important things. How can we just throw it away like that?"
Facing the angry Zhuang Sheng, Zhuang Qiang hesitated for a moment, then asked cautiously: "What if the police come and catch the thief? What will happen to the thief?"
Zhuang Sheng said angrily, "Let him stay in prison for ten years."
As soon as he said this, Zhuang Qiang was so scared that his face turned pale. At this moment, Zhuang Qiang was in an uneasy state. He looked at Zhuang Sheng with a pale face.
Zhuang Sheng was surprised by Zhuang Qiang's expression. He was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Dad, what's with that expression on your face? Why is it so ugly?"
Zhuang Qiang fell onto the sofa, his body shaking uncontrollably. He was terrified and looked very uncomfortable with his head down.
Zhuang Sheng was puzzled by Zhuang Qiang's behavior. He asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? Let me take you to the hospital."
Zhuang Qiang quickly looked up at Zhuang Sheng and asked him, "If you send me to the hospital, will that mean we don't have to call the police?"
"I'll find a phone to call the police on the way to the hospital." Zhuang Sheng insisted.
Hearing this, Zhuang Qiang immediately became anxious. Panicked, he shouted at Zhuang Sheng, "No, no, Zhuang Sheng, I'm begging you, please don't call the police, okay, okay?"
Zhuang Qiang in front of him was full of panic. He looked at Zhuang Sheng with frightened eyes and was full of uneasiness. Zhuang Sheng looked very strange.
Zhuang Sheng was stunned for a moment, as if he suddenly realized something. He asked, "Dad, are you hiding something from me?"
Zhuang Qiang's face turned pale. He looked at Zhuang Sheng nervously and asked anxiously, "If I say something, please don't blame me..."
"I don't blame you, just tell me..."
Judging from Zhuang Qiang's appearance, something seemed to be wrong, but no matter whether it was a big or small matter, Zhuang Sheng always felt that it would not be serious.
Anyway, the problem was solved, but what he didn't expect was that Zhuang Qiang hesitated for a moment and told him: "I was the one who broke open your safe..."
"Huh?" Zhuang Sheng stared at Zhuang Qiang with wide eyes. He was very surprised, thinking he had misheard. He raised his voice and asked loudly, "Dad, do you know what you just said?"
Facing his question, Zhuang Qiang said affirmatively: "Of course I know what I'm talking about, but Zhuang Sheng, don't call the police. You absolutely must not call the police, or else, it will be your father who will go to jail."
Zhuang Sheng's face turned grim after hearing Zhuang Qiang's words. He asked, "Dad, why are you doing this? I've given you a lot of pocket money, so why did you smash my safe?"
When Zhuang Sheng asked this, Zhuang Qiang immediately said, "You're worried about your father. If you give me pocket money, who can afford just a few dollars? You have so much wealth, but you just can't bear to spend it on me, your father. If you don't give me money, I can only find a way on my own..."
Zhuang Sheng looked at Zhuang Qiang in astonishment and asked, "How come you don't have enough money? Didn't I just give you two thousand yuan yesterday? Did you spend it all so quickly?"
Zhuang Qiang snorted coldly, then said, "Zhuang Sheng, I'm telling you, I've already spent all the money. Believe it or not, it doesn't matter. I'm tired, so I'm going to rest."
Without waiting for Zhuang Sheng to say anything else, Zhuang Qiang quickly walked towards the bedroom. Zhuang Sheng heard the loud sound of the door slamming and his mind was in a mess. What was going on? He really didn't know what to do.
He looked towards the bedroom and saw Ruonan inside. She must be very anxious. He didn't know how to explain it.
Ruonan looked at Zhuang Sheng standing at the door, looking as if he hadn't decided whether to go in or not. She asked, "Are you coming in or not?"
Facing her question, Zhuang Sheng said, "Of course I have to come in."
As soon as he entered the room, Ruonan asked, "When are you coming?"
This matter is very important. After all, the things lost in the house are worth a lot of money, so we must investigate it thoroughly.
But when she asked, Zhuang Sheng said to her, "She won't come."
He spoke in a tone of affirmation. Hearing this, Ruonan was stunned for a moment, then she asked in confusion: "Why? Why didn't you come? How could you not come when such a big thing happened?"
Zhuang Sheng replied in a low voice, "I didn't call the police."
Such a big thing, he didn't even call the police. Staring at him, Ruonan asked, "Why didn't you call the police? Give me a reason, Zhuang Sheng, give me a reason."
This is no small matter. He actually didn't call the police for such a big thing. Ruonan couldn't think of a reason that could convince her.
But Zhuang Sheng gave it to him and said, "My father broke into the safe."
"What?"
Ruonan looked at him dumbfounded. She really didn't expect that it would be so difficult to guard against a thief in the house.
She knew that Zhuang Sheng had softened his heart in this matter. Listening to his words, she was very angry. After taking a few deep breaths, Ruonan said, "Okay, go call your father and we will make things clear."
