After calling the police, Zhang Zhaodi sat on the sofa in the hall waiting for the police to arrive.

At the same time, in Xu Zhuo's room.

Xu Zhuo was very satisfied with Zhao Xiaoqin's performance.

This woman has been completely under his control. He knows exactly where Zhao Xiaoqin's weak spot is.

He is timid, has little social experience, is simple-minded, and most importantly, has no opinion of his own.

What's more, Zhao Xiaoqin still owed him 100,000 yuan, and he also had the video to threaten her, so Zhao Xiaoqin could only listen to him obediently.

If soft tactics don't work, try hard tactics. If that really doesn't work, use both soft and hard tactics to coax her into turning around.

He immediately changed his expression, fell to his knees in front of Zhao Xiaoqin, and slapped himself on both sides, confessing his sins with tears in his eyes:

"Xiaoqin, I deserve to die. I shouldn't have been violent towards you. I wasn't that kind of person before.

Do you know? Ever since that bastard surnamed Lu cheated me of my money and slept with my wife, I have become irritable and angry. I don't want to be like this. I used to be a very gentle person, but... I really can't control myself. Can you forgive me? As long as I get the money, I will take you away. "

Xu Zhuo is indeed a master of acting. He knelt in front of Zhao Xiaoqin with tears and snot. His attitude was sincere and sounded very pitiful.

Seeing Zhao Xiaoqin sitting on the bed sulking and not saying a word, Xu Zhuo took a few steps forward, hugged Zhao Xiaoqin's legs, looked at her pitifully and said, "Zhao Xiaoqin, have you forgiven me?"

Zhao Xiaoqin's heart softened immediately, and she asked with a straight face, "You didn't lie to me?"

Xu Zhuo raised his hands and swore, "I absolutely did not lie to you. If I dare to tell you a lie, I will be hit by a car when I leave the house."

Just at this moment, Zhao Xiao's cell phone rang loudly.

After answering the phone, Zhao Xiaoqin asked nervously, "Doctor Li, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Doctor Li on the other end of the phone sighed and said, "You have to come to the hospital in the next two days. Your mother's illness has relapsed. I plan to arrange surgery for her."

"Ah!? Doctor Li, didn't my mother have surgery not long ago? How come the disease relapsed again?"

Hearing what Zhao Xiaoqin said, Xu Zhuo got up from the ground, sat on the chair with full health, and looked at Zhao Xiaoqin with disdain.

His back straightened immediately, he knew that Zhao Xiaoqin wanted to ask him for something again.

"For specific details, please come to my office when you come to the hospital."

Zhao Xiaoqin replied frustratedly, "I know."

Just as Xu Zhuo expected.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Xiaoqin cried, "Boss Xu, the doctor said that my mother's illness has relapsed and she may need surgery..."

Xu Zhuo said straightforwardly, "This is a serious matter. Let the doctor arrange the surgery right away. Don't worry about the surgery fee. I'll take care of it."

As soon as Xu Zhuo finished speaking, his cell phone rang. He glanced at the number and said cautiously, "I'm going out to answer the call."

Xu Zhuo answered the phone and walked out of the room. He walked while talking on the phone and went down the second staircase. When he was about to reach the lobby on the first floor, he looked up and saw Zhang Zhaodi at the hotel entrance from afar, talking to several men in uniform.

Xu Zhuo frowned and immediately said to the person on the other end of the phone, "Okay, that's it. I got it. I'll hang up first."

After hanging up the phone, he hurried upstairs quickly. As soon as he entered the room, he said nervously, "I suspect that woman called the police. When the police come later, you should keep your mouth shut. Or just say what I said before. If they ask about our relationship, just say that I am your cousin. Do you understand?"

After that, Xu Zhuo took out a card from his bag and handed it to Zhao Xiaoqin:

"There's 50,000 yuan in here. Take it and use it to pay your mother's medical expenses. If it's not enough, I'll help you get more. Come on, go back to your room right now."

Zhao Xiaoqin hesitated for a moment, accepted the card, went into the bathroom and tidied her appearance in front of the mirror.

Xu Zhuo raised his voice in anger, "It's already this late, and you still have the mind to put on makeup? Go back to your room."

Zhao Xiaoqin said "oh" and just picked up her bag to go out when she heard hurried footsteps coming from the corridor, followed by a knock on the door.

"Who are you looking for?"

Xu Zhuo asked deliberately, pointing to the chair, and motioning Zhao Xiaoqin to put down her bag and sit on the chair.

"Police station, open the door."

Xu Zhuo slowly opened the door and saw several policemen in uniform standing at the door. Xu Zhuo asked with a smile, "Hello, what can I do for you?"

The police officer at the police station showed his ID and said, "We received a report from the public that your room was suspected of prostitution."

Xu Zhuo seemed very calm, and said with a contemptuous smile, "People nowadays are so boring that they can even make up such words. I am speechless."

He turned to look at Zhao Xiaoqin and said in a kind tone, "My niece's mother is sick and in the hospital. I came to see her. We just came back from the hospital. Who has nothing better to do than to make such a joke?"

Of course, the police officer would not listen to Xu Zhuo's one-sided story and said sternly, "Show us both your ID cards."

After the police confirmed the identities of the two, they asked again, "What is your relationship?"

"I'm her distant cousin, there's nothing to question about that. If you don't believe me, ask her." Xu Zhuo looked at Zhao Xiaoqin with a firm tone.

Zhao Xiaoqin was very conflicted at the moment. She had an urge to tell the police that Xu Zhuo was not her distant cousin at all. She even wanted to expose Xu Zhuo's true face.

However, the phone call from Dr. Li just now disturbed her heart, and she was once again bewitched and accepted the 50,000 yuan given to her by Xu Zhuo.

She was wavering. If she exposed Xu Zhuo, her mother's life-saving money would be gone, and she would be punished by law for framing Lu Huohua. Xu Zhuo might retaliate against her in the future.

If she protected Xu Zhuo, it would mean that she would continue to do things that would hurt Mr. Lu against her conscience.

She was undecided for a moment...

"I'm asking you, why are you silent? Is he your distant cousin?"

The police officer stared at Zhao Xiaoqin with sharp eyes, making her feel nervous.

Suddenly, Xu Zhuoxin also became nervous and looked at Zhao Xiaoqin with an unnatural expression.

He was afraid that Zhao Xiaoqin would reveal his true identity...

Although this woman looks honest and decent, sometimes her words and actions are not smart enough...

After a little hesitation, Zhao Xiaoqin slowly said, "Yes, he is my distant cousin. He has been here for several days. He came to see my mother who was sick in the hospital."

Xu Zhuo's brows instantly relaxed, he took a long breath, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

The police officer looked suspiciously at the woman in front of him, who had a haggard face, red and swollen eyes, and a little messy hair, and asked again with a stern look:

"Are you sure? You have to understand that perjury is also against the law!"

Zhao Xiaoqin nodded decisively, "I'm sure."

After that, she looked at Xu Zhuo with a smile, "Uncle, we will go to the hospital later to pay the medical expenses for my mother."

Xu Zhuo nodded hurriedly, "Okay, Xiaoqin."

Just at this moment, Zhaodi appeared at the door of the room. Seeing this scene, Zhaodi pretended to be curious and asked:

"Xiaoqin, I wanted to ask you to go shopping, what's going on?"

Seeing Zhang Zhaodi, Xu Zhuo smiled and said, "Comrade police, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. Thank you for your hard work."

Then, he turned around, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Zhang Zhaodi, saying in a weird tone:

"I don't know which son of a bitch he is, but he has nothing better to do than to call the police. If I catch him, I will kill him!"
