Du Xiaoyu saw that her sister actually suspected that she had been kidnapped and even thought that she was smart enough to use a secret code to confirm the truth. She couldn't help but feel a little amused and said in a mocking tone, "Sister, you've watched too many movies and dramas. Are you a little obsessed? Don't worry, I wasn't kidnapped and there are no kidnappers around me who are forcing me to ask you for money. If you don't believe me, we can video chat. "
Hearing her relaxed tone, the other party was finally relieved and said happily, "Okay, I'll ask Brother Song to transfer the money to you when the bank opens at nine tomorrow."
Du Xiaoyu hung up the phone and turned to Lu Tao and Lin Susu with a smile, "Done. Mr. Lu, please call Director Wei again and tell him that Sister Susu has raised one million yuan. Ask him how to transfer the money and when Sister Susu's father can be released. Also, you don't have to take out your personal one hundred thousand yuan. Just keep it for later use. I'll just lend this one million yuan to Sister Susu. "
Lu Tao didn't expect that this cold and unapproachable beauty would be so generous. She didn't hesitate to lend a million yuan to Lin Susu who might not be able to repay the debt. He was touched and said sincerely, "Xiaoyu, you look weak and delicate, but I didn't expect you to be so generous and righteous. You're really admirable!"
Du Xiaoyu glanced at him with a shy smile and said, "Don't say these mushy words. Hurry up and call Director Wei!"
Lu Tao quickly took out his phone and called Wei Gangqiang. He told him that the one million yuan had been raised and asked him what to do next.
Wei Gangqiang replied, "I'll ask Liao Huaiyi for the phone number of the police officer who handled your friend's case. You can contact the case manager tomorrow morning and transfer the money according to his request. I've already told Liao Huaiyi that as long as Lin Xianzhi's family pays the one million yuan, the Qingxi County Bureau must release her immediately. Don't worry, with Liao Huaiyi's supervision, the Qingxi County Bureau won't dare to take the money and not release her. "
Lu Tao said, "Okay, then please ask for the phone number of the police officer who handled the case. We'll contact him directly tomorrow."
After that, Lu Tao and Du Xiaoyu comforted Lin Susu for a while before leaving the MCH. Lu Tao treated Du Xiaoyu to a small restaurant nearby and waved goodbye.
After returning to the hotel, Lu Tao took a shower and watched TV in bed for a while. Suddenly, he remembered that he should give it to Chen Zhao. He made a call and told her about his visit to Lin Susu in the afternoon. Then, he picked up his phone and called Chen Zhao. Phone number.
After the call connected, Lu Tao was about to speak when he heard a very cold voice coming from the receiver. "Is this Little Lu? I'm Chen. His mother. She was out for a walk with her boyfriend. In order not to be disturbed, she deliberately left her phone at home. Why are you looking for her? If there's anything, just tell me and I'll tell her when she comes back. "
Lu Tao was confused by her words. He didn't have time to think about it and blurted out, "Auntie,? When did she find a boyfriend? Who was the man? How come she never mentioned it to me? "
Wu Manping snorted and said in a disdainful tone, "My house? Why should I tell you that I'm looking for a boyfriend? Who are you to her? I'll say something you don't like to hear. No matter who she's with now, he's better than you by a little bit. At least he's a clean and upright person. He hasn't been punished, he hasn't fought with hooligans, and he hasn't gone to a hotel with a random woman. "
When Lu Tao heard these sarcastic words, his face turned purple and his eyes blazed with anger. He abruptly hung up the phone and threw it on the bed. He hugged his head and lay on the quilt, breathing heavily.
A few minutes later, Lu Tao gradually calmed down. He carefully recalled Wu Manping's words just now. Suddenly, a sour feeling surged in his heart. Wu Manping's words were definitely not baseless. Perhaps there really was a boy who went to Chen's house tonight? Dinner at home. Chen? Although she had always liked him, if the boy who went to her house tonight was also very outstanding, the two of them might fall in love at first sight …
When he thought of this possibility, the sour feeling in Lu Tao's heart became even stronger.
Only then did he realize that he had unknowingly developed feelings for Chen? It could even be said that he was attached to her! This feeling of affection and attachment was formed gradually and subtly over time. In the beginning, he didn't notice it and didn't think that Chen? He didn't know how precious her true feelings and contributions were. However, now that he knew that she might have fallen in love with another man, he truly felt distressed and regretful. The saying, "You only know how to cherish something after you lose it" was probably the true portrayal of his current feelings …
For the rest of the time, Lu Tao was not in the mood to watch TV. He kept holding the phone in his hand, hoping that Chen? She would call back and explain that her mother was talking nonsense and that she didn't have a boyfriend at all … However, he waited until one o 'clock in the morning, and the expected call did not come …
That night, Lu Tao couldn't sleep again. The feeling of insomnia was exactly the same as when he found out that Yang Xiaoting was living with another man …
The next day, at half past eight in the morning, Lu Tao, who had just fallen asleep, was suddenly woken up by his phone's ringtone. He picked it up in a daze. It was Du Xiaoyu calling, saying that she was downstairs at the hotel and that they would go to the bank together to transfer the money.
Lu Tao quickly got out of bed and hurriedly put on his clothes and washed up. He went down to the hotel lobby with red and swollen eyes and saw Du Xiaoyu sitting on a sofa. When she saw him coming down from the elevator, she immediately asked, "Did Director Wei tell you the contact's phone number? Call him now and ask for his account number. We'll go to the bank together to transfer the money. "
Lu Tao hurriedly pulled out the contact number that Wei Gangqiang had told him from his phone's address book and dialed it. After confirming the other party's identity, he told him the situation and said that he would go to the bank later to transfer one million yuan to him. He asked him to send the account number over via text message …
Then, the two of them took a taxi to the nearest Industrial and Commercial Bank and transferred the one million yuan to an account of the Qingxi County Public Security Bureau. Then, they contacted the police officer in charge of Lin Xianzhi's case and told him that the money had been transferred. They asked when Lin Xianzhi could be released.
