Chapter 5: I want my money back with interest



Huo Hongtao didn't tell Bai Qingqing in the end.

When the female police officer heard this, her face froze. She said in a deep voice, "Comrade Huo? When was the item lost? Where was it lost? How did it get lost?"

Huo Hongtao replied awkwardly: "I...I lost it on the road!"

As he spoke, he looked at Han Xinrui pleadingly: "Xinrui, just think of this money as a loan from me. Stop making a fuss. We are husband and wife, and making such a fuss about this is really a joke."

It was obvious that Han Xinrui would not let it go like this.

She had made such a big fuss just to get her money back. How could she just let it go just because Huo Hongtao said a few soft words?

Han Xinrui ignored Huo Hongtao and instead held the policewoman's hand tightly. "Comrade, my husband is the director of the fertilizer factory. If he were so careless, how could he have become the director at such a young age? He must have been deceived."

As she spoke, tears were already falling: "It takes a family many years to save so much money, how can it be lost just like that!"

The neighbors in the compound didn't believe what Huo Hongtao said at all.

Then, Aunt Wang beside her suddenly exclaimed, "Qingqing, where did you get those big gold bracelets on your hands, and that big gold necklace around your neck? You didn't have them on your hands a few days ago!"

Aunt Wang had already started to wonder when the police arrived, and then she saw two big, shiny gold bracelets on Bai Qingqing's wrists.

When she looked at Huo Hongtao, she knew what was going on.

This couple is really bullying people.

Not only are you two unclear about each other, but you also take other people's dowry and money!

After Aunt Wang shouted this, everyone looked at Bai Qingqing.

After being reminded by Aunt Wang, everyone realized that Bai Qingqing was wearing golden bracelets on both wrists and a golden necklace around her neck.

This gold will blind their eyes.

When Bai Qingqing heard Aunt Wang's shout, her scalp went numb. Now seeing everyone staring at her, she immediately shrank behind Huo Hongtao.

Sun Zhong was a peasant who drove a truck into the cliff to supplement his family income. His death left Bai Qingqing with a mountain of debt, and she had no money to buy gold bracelets and chains.

"Brother Huo! I..." Bai Qingqing was extremely panicked at the moment.

If people knew that Huo Hongtao gave Han Xinrui's dowry and money to herself, she would not be able to explain herself even if she had a hundred mouths.

She also works at a fertilizer factory, and she couldn't hold her head up in the factory anymore after this incident became public.

Huo Hongtao protected Bai Qingqing behind him and glanced resentfully at Han Xinrui lying on the ground. "Han Xinrui, consider this money as something I owe you! I'll write you an IOU! Is that okay?"

Han Xinrui lowered her eyes and remained silent. She neither said yes nor no.

The female police officer nearby glanced at Han Xinrui and spoke up for her, saying, "You're husband and wife. I'm afraid writing this IOU is useless!"

At this time, Han Xinrui said quietly: "I just want to know where you put my gold bars and money!"

Huo Hongtao looked up at the female police officer angrily, then gritted his teeth and continued, "Han Xinrui, I'll return the money to you within ten days. Is that okay? With so many witnesses, including the police, I can't deny it."

Han Xinrui looked up at Bai Qingqing's hand for a long time, then nodded: "Okay! Go write the IOU!"

Huo Hongtao turned around angrily and went into the house to get a pen and paper. He wrote the IOU in front of the police and the neighbors in the compound.

He even put his fingerprints on it in front of everyone!

The female police officer handed the IOU to Han Xinrui and said earnestly, "Comrade Han, if you can't get the money back, come back to the police."

Han Xinrui thanked the female police officer gratefully.

If she hadn't had this female police officer to help her, she would be
