After four years of living alone after marrying far away, he went back to his parents' home and

The police arrived as soon as Lan Yujuan got home.

The arrogant gangster, who had been sitting in the yard, jumped up as soon as he saw the police arrive and turn on their body cameras.

He immediately told his gang to obediently step aside.

"What's going on here during the Chinese New Year?" the police officer questioned on the spot.

The leader immediately stepped forward, offering cigarettes while smiling obsequiously, "No, it's nothing!"

"It's the Lunar New Year, so we've come to visit relatives and friends. A few of us good brothers have come to wish our newly acquainted brother Zhigang a Happy New Year!"

The police officer sternly refused the cigarette, then turned to the Liu family members and asked, "Is what they said true?"

Just as Tian Xiuhua was about to speak, Liu Zhigang desperately stopped her with a wink, "Mom, please don't say anything!"

Lan Yujuan stood to the side. She could see no pressure or tension on Liu Zhigang's face due to the huge debt. On the contrary, she was afraid that her mother-in-law would report this matter to the police.

It's as if Liu Zhigang and this group of people who came to collect debts were accomplices.

"Officer, nothing's wrong with my family!" Liu Zhigang quickly said, trying to clear his name.

"I'm sorry to trouble you to make this trip. Thank you for your hard work!"

As he spoke, he was about to politely see the guest off.

To everyone's surprise, the police officer had barely finished saying, "Okay, it's best if nothing happens!" when he wasn't about to leave immediately.

Instead, she turned to the crowd and asked earnestly, "Excuse me, who is Lan Yujuan? Who called the police today?"

Before anyone could react, Lan Yujuan stepped forward with her daughter in her arms.

"Officer, I was the one who called the police today!"

Before Lan Yujuan could explain the situation clearly, Liu Zhigang, who was standing next to her, couldn't hold back any longer and rushed forward to stop her:

"Sister-in-law, what business is it of yours how much money I owe? Why did you call the police?"

"Even if I can't pay my debts, I'll ask my own elder brother for help. What's it to you?"

"Do you know what? There's absolutely no dispute in our family. You're making a false police report out of nothing, which is illegal!"

When Lan Yujuan saw that the other party was about to push her, she quickly hid behind the police officer.

Upon seeing this, the two police officers quickly reached out and pushed Liu Zhigang away to maintain a proper distance between them.

"Both of you should talk things out calmly first!"

"Also, you've probably misunderstood."

"Lan Yujuan calling the police has absolutely nothing to do with how much money you owe outside."

"She called the police today because she lost valuables."

The villagers, who had been watching from a distance, dared not get too close to the thugs who came to collect debts.

Now that the police officers have arrived, they all become bolder, eager to squeeze to the very center and put their ears to their mouths to listen.

As soon as everyone heard that Lan Yujuan had lost something, they immediately started talking about it.

"What happened? Their house was burgled during the Lunar New Year? What was stolen?"

What the neighbors wanted to know was exactly what the police officers wanted to ask.

"Lan Yujuan, tell me again, what did you lose? Where did you lose it? Approximately how much was the lost item worth?"

"Also, during the time your things were stolen, did any strangers come to your house?"

"Or perhaps the neighbors could help provide some clues and see if any suspicious outsiders have come to the village today?"

So, Lan Yujuan recounted the time and details of how she lost her phone to the police officers again.

When the Liu family learned that Lan Yujuan had called the police because she had lost her phone, they breathed a sigh of relief, but their hearts were also on edge.

Tian Xiuhua spoke first: "Officer, Lan Yujuan losing her phone has nothing to do with us. It definitely wasn't taken by her family!"

Standing next to her mother, Liu Zhifang nodded repeatedly, "Yes, we didn't take any!"

Just moments ago, Liu Zhigang had looked timid, but now he seemed like a completely different person. Upon learning that Lan Yujuan had called the police because her new phone had been stolen, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"Officers, this woman is incredibly cunning. She's completely fooled my brother. Don't let her fool you!"

"There are only a few people in our family, and no outsiders have come. Could it be that my dad stole her new phone?"

"In my opinion, she's most likely hiding it herself, crying 'stop thief' while trying to swindle money from her family!"

It has to be said that Liu Zhigang's words were a wake-up call!

Lan Yujuan had just felt that something was off about this group of gangsters coming to collect debts today.

Now that I've heard Liu Zhigang say this, I finally understand!

When this group of gangsters first came to our door, they looked incredibly thuggish and were indeed quite intimidating.

But as soon as the two police officers arrived, almost all of them revealed their true colors.

Standing to the side, each one was more serious than the last, with proper posture, and all their bandit-like air disappeared.

This doesn't look like someone involved in organized crime at all! It looks more like a professional actor filming a short drama!

In an instant, Lan Yujuan understood!

Judging from Liu Zhigang's appearance, he doesn't look like someone who gambles outside or owes money. He clearly hired a group of people to put on a show at home, trying to swindle the 800,000 yuan down payment for a house!

The original agreement was that the house would be registered in his name.

As a result of this commotion, not only did the sister-in-law rush back to add her name to the list, but even the older brother wanted to come back.

If they really wait for their elder brother Liu Zhiyuan to rush home, the 800,000 yuan that was about to be in their hands will probably fly away like a cooked duck.

She can figure this out, so she doesn't believe her father-in-law and mother-in-law can't see through it.

Lan Yujuan was in a daze when she suddenly saw Liu Defu, who had been silent all along, raise his hand and slap his second son.

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

"Why would I, an old man, steal my daughter-in-law's phone?"

"I think it's possible that you're the one who brought this bunch of troublemakers back, and they secretly stole the phone!"
