Qiu Shaocheng realized this and started shouting: "I was stopped as soon as I walked out of the guesthouse, beaten up like this; surely, this can't just end like this, can it?"
Thinking he might not get out, he considered settling privately with those people to get some money to save his son.
But he never expected that the group who beat him was in another interrogation room. By the time Qiu Shaocheng got the news, he was completely stunned.
Those people were none other than Qiu Chunli's widowed mother's family and former husband's family. They caught Qiu Shaocheng because someone had deliberately given them the tip-off.
