“Tangtang, smashed the crock to protect herself! She didn’t mean to hurt anyone. In fact, she hasn’t hurt anyone in this room.”
Liu Zhi shook his head unwillingly. He waved his hands up in the air. “Mom, don’t be so biased! Don’t you know that this girl had fed Xu Hongsome medicine? Now, her throat hurts whenever she tries to speak. We’ve also been wronged!”
He added, “We did all of this for you! If we hadn’t been so worried for you, we wouldn’t have tried to stop her.”
Xu Hong wiped the tears streaming down her cheeks. She sniffled as she hid her face behind his sleeves.
The police couldn’t help but gaze at the couple understandingly. If this was the reason Liu Zhi had thrown the crock, then they could understand his intentions.
After all, even they didn’t know that the lady was skilled in medicine. They also weren’t aware that she was a Chinese medicine practitioner.
However, Grandma Xu already had enough of their lies. “You’re saying that you care about me? What lies! How long has it been since you’ve seen me? Last time when I was sick and in need of money to which Xuanxuanhad begged you for, didn’t you kick her out?”
She scoffed. “Now, you’re saying you’re worried about me? You obviously had your own motives.”
As soon as the words escaped her lips, everyone turned around to Liu Zhi and Xu Hong, as if they were looking at them in a new light.
Xu Hong’s face turned sheet white and she lowered her head, refusing to say another word.
“We didn’t have a choice before!” Liu Zhi flew into a rage. He threw his hands up in the air. “If it weren’t for the difficulties we’ve suffered from home, we wouldn’t be forced to turn you away. Now that we’ve realized our mistake, we came to make amends. Haven’t we come to take you away?”
Ah, that made sense.
If it weren’t for the fact that they wanted to make amends, then they wouldn’t have appeared in their homes, right? They just came to make things right.
Perhaps this was just another misunderstanding between relatives. The officers slowly nodded amongst each other, preparing to leave as the family settled this matter themselves.
However, Cheng Yan suddenly stepped in.
“This old house is going to be demolished, right?”
As soon as he said this, the couple froze. They stared at Cheng Yan’s face with surprise in their eyes.
The place was actually going to be demolished. If it weren’t for this fact, they wouldn’t have decided to come to this dump!
However, how did he know about this?
Liu Zhi pretended not to understand the truth of this matter as he shook his head. “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”
However, everyone had already seen the panic in their eyes.
The reason why they came to see the old lady was not that they wanted her back but because they were concerned about the money.
If they took Grandma Xu away, then the money would rightfully belong to them. It was really all about the monetary consequences that came after them.
A trace of disdain coursed through their hearts. They didn’t expect the truth to be so horrifying.
They pretended to be so filial, but in reality, they intended to cheat them out for money. How could they be this shameless?
Grandma Xu sighed in disappointment.
“You’re simply assuming things.” Liu Zhi stumbled back, shaking his head. “Xu Hongand I didn’t know anything about the demolition. We only wanted to make amends. How were we supposed to know that this girl was really a doctor? We really didn’t know anything.”
Xu Hong nodded rapidly.
However, at this moment, no one believed them anymore. They all knew the truth of this matter.
The policeman glanced at the culprits. “Mr. Liu, we demand your full cooperation. Please follow us to the police station.”
In an instant, their faces darkened.
