"How did you spend so much money? Didn't your parents ask where the money came from?" Teacher Mao found it unbelievable. How could parents not suspect that their child suddenly sent home such a large sum of money?
"I bought computers and cell phones for my younger siblings, and I also sent living expenses to my parents."
Fang Tongtong sneered and looked at Shi Xiaobao. Without saying a word, Shi Xiaobao understood her meaning and directly called the staff who were still stationed in the village.
The call connected quickly. The subordinate, who had been waiting anxiously, finally received a call from his boss and was so excited that his voice trembled.
"I need to find He Xiaohong's house. I have some questions for them," Shi Xiaobao said calmly.
He Xiaohong's face turned pale instantly, and she was sweating profusely. She opened her mouth to change her words, but Fang Tongtong stopped her, "You've already been given a chance, now please shut up!"
The head of the teaching department and Teacher Mao immediately understood and were extremely disappointed in He Xiaohong, who was utterly unrepentant!
The village staff quickly called back. He was at He Xiaohong's house because He Xiaohong's parents couldn't speak Mandarin, so the village chief acted as the translator.
"Xiaohong did send some money, about three thousand yuan in total, saying it was money she earned working in the city... Computer? We didn't buy it... My family doesn't have the money to buy such expensive things..."
The village chief translated He's father's words. Although his Mandarin was broken, it was understandable. Teacher Mao and the dean of students frowned, even more disappointed in He Xiaohong. She had swindled more than 160,000 yuan, but only sent 3,000 yuan home. She was too selfish and cold-hearted.
"My back is okay, it just a little sore on rainy days. It's fine for normal work. I won't go to the hospital, I don't have the money. I'll be able to relax a bit after Xiaohong graduates from university."
He's father's hoarse laughter came from the phone. He was completely unaware of what his daughter had done. In his heart, He Xiaohong was still as sensible and filial as ever.
He Xiaohong collapsed to the ground in despair. She never expected Fang Tongtong to send someone to the village—no, it was that man beside Fang Tongtong who was so wicked.
It's only 160,000 yuan, why go to such extremes?
She doesn't care about feelings at all. All those things Fang Tongtong said before, like treating her like a younger sister, humph... they were all lies.
"Sister Tongtong, I will pay you back. I will work to pay you back. I will definitely pay you back..." He Xiaohong still wanted to salvage the situation and kept begging for forgiveness.
"The money must be repaid, of course, but... how it should be repaid is up to us."
Shi Xiaobao smiled sarcastically. This He Xiaohong still hasn't repented and only wants to escape punishment. If Fang Tongtong agrees to let He Xiaohong repay the money slowly, He Xiaohong will probably come up with more excuses to deceive people in the future.
The girl's heart had been blinded by the life woven by lies. Having tasted a life of luxury, how could she possibly endure the previous life of hardship and poverty?
He Xiaohong felt even more uneasy. Fang Tongtong was easier to deal with, but Shi Xiaobao was too dangerous. His eyes were like searchlights, as if he could see right through her.
After He Xiaohong left, Shi Xiaobao said to the head of the teaching department and Teacher Mao, "He Xiaohong has committed fraud, involving a total amount of 167,000 yuan. I will have her sued in the Hangzhou court."
“Once this goes to court, the child will be truly ruined. Mr. Shi, Officer Fang, can we reconsider this matter? How about letting He Xiaohong work after graduation to pay back the money?” Teacher Mao pleaded.
She still couldn't bear to watch her students be ruined.
“No, Teacher Mao’s intentions are good, but will He Xiaohong really change? As you have seen, we have given her chances again and again, but she is stubborn and unrepentant. We have already done everything we could!” Shi Xiaobao said without any leniency.
Being lenient with criminals is to condone evil.
