Xing Taohua saw Xing Jianlin and Bai Qingqing again a week after Huo Hongtao was taken away.
Upon seeing Xing Jianlin, Xing Taohua smiled sarcastically: "Brother, ever since Huo Hongtao and I moved out, no matter how badly I was beaten, you never came. Now you've come four times a week."
Xing Jianlin looked at Xing Taohua, his face grim, and said, "Taohua, did you really hand over all the gold bars and money to the police?"
Upon hearing this, Xing Taohua chuckled: "The police should have already found out exactly how much money District Chief Sun embezzled. What do you think I could possibly hide?"
In the past few days, Xing Jianlin and Bai Qingqing have not believed that Xing Taohua really handed over all the money.
No one would actually hand over that much money.
This money was originally intended for District Chief Sun's family. He didn't mention it when questioned by the police.
Xing Taohua voluntarily handed over the money, which gave the investigators a breakthrough, leading to the discovery of more people involved.
Xing Jianlin stared at Xing Taohua with a livid face, gritting his teeth and saying, "Xing Taohua, do you even have a brain?"
Xing Taohua glanced at Bai Qingqing and said to Xing Jianlin, "Brother, I heard that before District Chief Sun went in, he doted on your wife the most. Do you think he left her a way out back then?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Qingqing's face turned ashen, and she angrily retorted, "Xing Taohua, my relationship with District Chief Sun is completely innocent. If he were to leave his money with me, would I need to come to you every day?"
Xing Taohua smiled and said, "Really? But Huo Hongtao said that District Chief Sun has other, more important things in your hands."
Upon hearing this, Bai Qingqing immediately felt guilty: "No... if I had it, I would have taken it out already."
Xing Taohua chuckled lightly: "You should know how much potential Huo Hongtao really has. We don't know how much he confessed during the interrogation! Sister-in-law, I'm only advising you because we're on the same side! If you hand it over yourself now, you won't be implicated, and you might even get some credit. Once the investigation is over, we don't know what will happen."
Bai Qingqing stared at Xing Taohua, and for a moment, she suddenly felt that the person in front of her was a stranger.
In her memory, Xing Taohua was brainless, uncultured, and only wanted to marry well.
But now... she can actually use these things to threaten her and Xing Jianlin.
Before long, Xing Jianlin and Bai Qingqing didn't get away unscathed and left in a sorry state.
After arriving home, Xing Jianlin did not question Bai Qingqing about whether she had anything in her possession. He simply reported her to the authorities that same day.
As Bai Qingqing was being taken away, she looked at Xing Jianlin with red eyes: "Xing Jianlin, we are husband and wife. Do you really think you can get away with anything happening to me!"
Xing Jianlin just sneered: "Then try to pin this on me."
Bai Qingqing was taken away, but she was released the next day.
After she was released from the detention center, she didn't say anything. She took the savings book and money that Xing Jianlin had hidden in his cotton-padded clothes and ran away with the money.
Nowadays, you can get a bankbook without any identification, and besides, she and Xing Jianlin are still legally married, so it wouldn't be difficult for her to withdraw money.
After receiving the money, she ignored Niu Niu and boarded the train to Nancheng.
She's going to Hong Kong!
Before the incident, District Chief Sun had taken Bai Qingqing to Gangcheng once.
That experience showed Bai Qingqing what a good life truly is.
Hong Kong is far more prosperous than the mainland, and she felt that she could make a lot of money if she came to Hong Kong.
When Xing Jianlin returned home, he saw the house in complete disarray and a sense of foreboding flashed through his mind. He rushed into the room, his face ashen.
He searched inside his cotton-padded coat and trousers for a long time, and then felt utterly hopeless.
That bitch Bai Qingqing, she ran off with the money!
She actually dared to run away with the money!
Xing Jianlin
