After hearing the words of the Qin family, Su Xuan shook his head helplessly.

“Don’t be anxious. We don’t know if the money he took out is dirty money.”

“After the police investigate, they will inform you immediately. Please keep an eye on your phone.”

“But the best thing now is to not touch all the money he gave you. If it’s dirty money, you have to return it in full.”

After hearing Su Xuan’s words, the Qin family’s hearts thumped.

Gao Qi had given them 100,000 yuan. As for the dowry gift, he hadn’t given it to them yet. He said that he would give it to them after the wedding banquet. If they couldn’t use the money given by the robber, who would settle the bill this time?

Even if the guests were only the bride’s relatives.

However, they had thought that they had hooked up with a rich man, so they had called all their relatives over. The entire banquet hall was filled with tables.

If they used their own money, they’d probably be drained of all their resources!

No, this was absolutely unacceptable!

Definitely not!

After thinking this through, Qin’s parents immediately grabbed Su Xuan, not allowing him to leave, and spoke with an aggressive tone.

“Since we can’t use the money from this robber, you need to give us an explanation for this situation!”

“A perfectly good wedding, and you’ve ruined it like this. If you had come earlier, we might not have even needed to hold a wedding!”

“You’re my daughter’s ex-boyfriend; you wouldn’t be doing this on purpose, would you? Are you trying to humiliate our family?”

“No, this banquet costs so much money. You must take half of the responsibility! I don’t want much from you; 200,000 yuan should be fair.”

“This 200,000 yuan might not even cover half of the cost for the drinks at this banquet!”

Qin’s mother arrogantly added.

After this statement, everyone was stunned, including the relatives who had come to watch the spectacle and were preparing to leave.

The few police officers standing beside Su Xuan even began to question their hearing: Did their ears deceive them?

Their gazes immediately focused on Qin’s mother, their eyes filled with disbelief. Did you even listen to yourself?

Could a human being say such things?

Was there any way that could be uttered with a straight face?

What does Su Xuan, her ex-boyfriend, have to do with your wedding arrangements?

Moreover, when did they have to consider the timing of an arrest? Did they need your opinion on that matter?

Not just the officers, even Su Xuan himself was stupefied at this moment.

Good Lord!

How did this person even come up with such nonsense? Why should he be responsible for half of your wedding expenses?

Furthermore, when Qin’s mother spoke, it was as if she was stating the obvious. She was even so generous as to inform him that the 200,000 yuan he was asking for was not even half of what they spent on the banquet…

What was going on here?

Did he have to pay no matter what?

This was becoming a bit shameless, wasn’t it?

In this moment, Su Xuan seemed to understand why Qin Shuyi could find her next partner so quickly.

Perhaps she learned this audacity from her mother.

Only someone with thick skin could do such a thing. Su Xuan’s lips twitched as he helplessly shook his head.

He thought to himself that it’s fortunate that he broke up with Qin Shuyi. Otherwise, if he had to deal with a mother-in-law like this, that would truly be a disaster.

Thinking this, he seemed to feel a tinge of relief deep inside.

Then, Su Xuan lowered his voice.

“Mrs. Qin, first of all, we are currently on official duty, and I can’t determine when we will make an arrest…”

“Furthermore, your family was deceived, and in that regard, you are indeed victims. You can approach Gao Qi for compensation for your mental and financial losses.”

“However, if you want to involve me, that wouldn’t be right. This isn’t my wedding with her, so what does it have to do with me?”

“200,000 yuan…”

When Su Xuan got to this point, he paused for a moment, his gaze ice-cold as he looked at Qin Shuyi’s mother. “Oh, do you know that 200,000 yuan in extortion money could land you in jail for a few years?”

After saying this, an unusual gleam flashed in Su Xuan’s eyes…

He even took out his phone as if he was about to transfer the money to her.

“Or how about you tell me your account number now, and I’ll transfer it to you?”

Hearing these words, Qin’s mother’s heart trembled, and she finally realized that this was a trap. Her complexion instantly turned pale.

Despite Su Xuan’s gesture of wanting to transfer the money to her, Qin’s mother could discern that once the transfer was done, he could easily turn around and have her arrested…

He was clearly trying to send her to jail too!

With these thoughts, Qin’s mother suddenly became timid. She waved her hands repeatedly, her voice trembling, and she dared not ask him for money anymore…

“No need, no need. I was just joking. Don’t take it seriously…”

“Our family matters, how could we ask you to pay, right…”

“What extortion? What nonsense are you spouting!”

“Su Xuan, don’t you have something to do? Why don’t you leave first?”

When Mrs. Qin said this, she was still a little reluctant to part with the money.

She then recalled that Qin Shuyi and Su Xuan had broken up because of the topic of dowry gifts.

She started thinking again.

Did that mean that Su Xuan still liked her daughter?

“Su Xuan, you and Shuyi have been together for so many years. Auntie has always felt that it’s a pity that the two of you broke up. Do you still like our Shuyi?”

“Look, everyone is here today. How about this? Give us a dowry gift of 200,000 yuan and we’ll treat it as you marrying our Shuyi today.”

Originally, she thought she’d end up with a well-off son-in-law, but now he had turned into a scumbag, not even worth a dung beetle’s shell.

Her daughter was getting older. Qin’s mother considered that if she had to find another partner for her now, it might be troublesome, mainly because they couldn’t recoup the banquet expenses.

So she quickly came up with this absurd idea.

Yet, even after saying it, she felt she had made a reasonable suggestion, even if she didn’t fancy the 200,000 yuan. It was as if she was granting a favor…

Qin Shuyi couldn’t believe it and screamed in disbelief.

“Mom! What are you saying? How could you let me marry this poor…”

“Shut up!”

As much as Qin’s mother had loved her daughter before, she now harbored an equal amount of resentment. If it wasn’t for Qin Shuyi, how could their family have ended up on the verge of debt?

After giving her daughter a stern glare, Qin’s mother turned to Su Xuan and smiled, “Su Xuan, you see, you have feelings for each other anyway. You won’t be losing out on this deal…”

Su Xuan looked at the middle-aged woman who looked like she was about to sell her daughter and immediately revealed a disdainful smile.

Let alone him.

After Qin Shuyi cheated on her, even the original Su Xuan had lost interest in her.

To fork out 200,000 yuan for her!?! That’s ridiculous!

Was she marrying off her daughter or selling her daughter?

“Auntie, don’t say such things in the future. If you want to talk business, you can talk to those rich people.”

“Me?”

“I can’t afford such an expensive woman!”
