Chapter 264: My Husband Definitely Won’t Swindle Your Money!

Her body clock was all messed up because she didn’t manage to sleep the entire night.

When she woke up, Gu Qingjiu experienced a bad headache.

But it was just a headache and nothing else.

So Gu Qingjiu didn’t let her Mom know.

Both of them were burning with anxiety. Without having breakfast, they left the house after a quick wash up.

Although what happened yesterday happened late at night, the police sirens were loud enough to alert people nearby.

Neighbors who knew that it was the Gu family woke up earlier that day just so they could get a snoop about the situation.

Qi Yuefeng was a kind person so she got along well with their neighbors, with the exception of weird people like Chen Yanhong.

With the worry they felt for Mr. Gu, they didn’t have the mood to explicitly explain to others.

They only vaguely explained it with a sentence to tide over for now.

Because the police station was quite far, Gu Qingjiu and Qi Yuefeng took a taxi there.

Only when they arrived at the police station were they informed that because of Gu Hong’s status as a suspect for a major case, family members could only meet him after he was detained for twenty-four hours.

Hearing that, Qi Yuefeng’s tears welled up again in anxiousness while Gu Qingjiu coaxed her.

She got Qi Yuefeng to wait at the lobby of the police station to wait for other news while she went out to buy breakfast for her.

They came in such a hurry that they didn’t manage to get breakfast. Even if they were anxious, they had to fill their stomachs too.

The only thing Gu Qingjiu had her mind on was a phone call from the Chief Instructor.

If Hu Yan could be arrested on that day, her father would be released on that same day as well.

At the police station, like Gu Qingjiu, there were many family members of suspects waiting there.

Some appeared angry while others had a complicated expression. They were all different from each other.

When Gu Qingjiu bought back a packet of small steamed buns, Qi Yuefeng pushed it away with a frail expression. “You eat them. I’m not eating.”

Gu Qingjiu looked down and sat by her side. “Mom, I know you’re upset and don’t have an appetite, but your stomach still has to be filled. Else, when Dad comes out, you may collapse from fatigue.”

She really didn’t have an appetite.

The anxiety within her heart just kept churning.

But hearing her daughter’s words, she smiled a little. She picked up a bun and stuffed it into her mouth like eating wax.

Around eight in the morning, a couple walked in.

The man was dressed smartly while the woman was dressed gracefully. With her red lips and high heels, they looked like they came from a wealthy family.

She walked to the information desk and asked in a loud voice, “You guys said that you arrested Gu Hong, the one who swindled our money? Where is he?”

Gu Qingjiu and Qi Yuefeng’s expressions stiffened.

And they turned their heads to look.

Before the police could reply, the man who followed the woman revealed an awkward expression. “Dear, don’t be like this. It’s still unclear. The police already said that Gu Hong could not have probably taken the money. Someone else also deceived Gu Hong. Remember that I’ve been friends with him for over twenty years…”

“I don’t care whether he was the culprit or not. He was the one who took the money from us, so he’s the only one I could blame!”

The woman sounded unreasonable as she swept an irate eye at the man.

While the police watched them, he had already found the information they were looking for. “He is currently in the holding cell. You have to wait a while.”

Because they were the victims, they could meet the suspect.

Upon hearing that, Qi Yuefeng stalked over.

Gu Qingjiu frowned and didn’t stop her.

“This sir? Are you Gu Hong’s friend? I am his wife. Trust me, trust Gu Hong. With who he is, he definitely wouldn’t swindle your money!”

The voice was firm as it resounded through the lobby.
