The news that Su Guomin's family had severed ties with the Su family caused a sensation in Sujia Village. This was the first time in the entire village's history that fathers and sons, mothers and sons, and brothers had broken off relations.
The village chief made it very clear on the loudspeaker that Su Wenxing and He Ermei of the Su family colluded with criminals to buy and sell Su Xingran. Although the sale was conducted under the guise of a marriage agreement, it still constituted a crime.
Out of gratitude for He Ermei's kindness in giving birth to him, Su Guomin withdrew his report, sparing He Ermei and her grandmother from imprisonment. Su Guomin's family, unwilling to have any further dealings with the Su family, repaid He Ermei's kindness and severed all ties.
The village chief's announcement in Sujia Village completely severed the ties between the Su family and Su Xingran's family.
The day after Su Xingran withdrew her report, Old Lady Su received a notification that she was acquitted. This moved her to tears; she could finally go home.
She followed the police officers who came to release her and walked out of the house where she had been detained for a week. Old Mrs. Su was only detained; she hadn't been formally sentenced. She only needed to sign a registration form to leave the police station.
Since Old Mrs. Su was illiterate, the police officers at the station wrote her name down and had her put her thumbprint on it. After giving her fingerprint, Old Mrs. Su could go home, but she was still waiting for Su Wenxing to come out.
Old Mrs. Su stood outside the police station, waiting for Su Wenxing to come out. But she waited a long time, and there was no sign of him. This made her uneasy; she had been notified to come out and sign documents and have her fingerprints taken, and then be told to go home.
Why is Wenxing taking so long? They were both arrested for the same thing. I've been out for so long, but Wenxing is still nowhere to be seen.
After thinking it over, Old Mrs. Su decided to go into the police station to ask. "Officer, I want to ask why Su Wenxing hasn't come out yet? I've been waiting for him for a long time."
The policeman who was being questioned glanced at Old Mrs. Su and told her the truth. "Su Wenxing can't leave. You don't need to wait for him. You should go home now!"
Hearing that Su Wenxing couldn't leave, Old Mrs. Su became anxious. "Officer, why can't Su Wenxing come? We were arrested together. Yesterday, Su Xingran said she withdrew her report, and I was able to get out. Is it because Su Xingran didn't withdraw Su Wenxing's report?"
"Comrade Su Xingran, she did indeed withdraw her report yesterday. That's why you can be released today. But Su Wenxing can't be released because he has other cases against him. Su Wenxing committed robbery and was also involved in gambling."
"Su Wenxing's case is already being processed, and there will be a result soon. When the result is released, your family will be notified."
Old Mrs. Su's vision blurred, her body swayed, and she stumbled back a few steps. The policeman standing next to her reacted quickly, grabbing her arm and pulling her back to her feet.
Lost in thought, Old Mrs. Su stood there like a puppet, speechless. The police, seeing her like this, didn't say anything either. They were used to such scenes.
After meeting with Su Xingran yesterday, Su Wenxing has been waiting for a notification. He is somewhat worried that Su Xingran might not keep her word and deliberately trick him into signing the agreement to sever ties.
But the thought that even if Su Xingran lied to him, there seemed to be nothing he could do, deflated. Su Wenxing sat on the ground, dejected.
"Su Wenxing, come out and follow me." Su Wenxing, who had been looking down, immediately raised his head when he heard someone call him. When he saw that the person who came was a policeman, Su Wenxing became excited.
He quickly stood up and followed the police officer who had come to call him. Su Wenxing thought Su Xingran had withdrawn her report and he could go home. It wasn't until he was taken to the interrogation room that he realized something was wrong.
"Officer, did Su Xingran withdraw her report? Shouldn't I be released and go home? Why were you brought here?" Su Wenxing asked the police officer standing next to him anxiously.
"Stay put, someone will come and question you in a bit." The policeman standing next to Su Wenxing didn't say anything more.
