Man Qixi seeks to get back together, but ends up in a "lover's robbery"

Xinmin Evening News (Correspondent Chen Yuanming, Reporter Guo Jianfeng) Valentine's Day, "520", Qixi Festival, in these warm and romantic days, confessing to your lover may be twice as effective with half the effort, but sometimes it will backfire. More than a year ago, Mr. Huang, who came to Shanghai to work, chose to get back together on Valentine's Day in Qixi in an attempt to save his ex-girlfriend's heart. As a result, it was not until the police solved the case that he found that he had already fallen into the "lover robbery" compiled for him by his ex-girlfriend.

It started more than a year ago, when Mr. Huang met Zhou, a woman working in Zhengzhou, through the introduction of relatives and friends. Although the two were separated, they quickly developed feelings through WeChat chat. After the two confirmed their relationship, Mr. Huang frequently traveled between Shanghai and Zhengzhou in order to date Zhou, and when he could not meet each other, he would also send some small gifts or WeChat red envelopes to please Zhou. But soon after, due to less gatherings and more separations, Zhou took the lead in proposing to break up.

After the breakup, Mr. Huang still tried to save the relationship. On Valentine's Day 2021, Mr. Huang once again summoned up enough courage to confess to Zhou and successfully "saved" Zhou's heart. Since then, although Zhou has changed her mind, during the period of continuing to communicate, she has always had many twists and turns, either her mother was admitted to the ICU, or her brother needed to compensate others for medical expenses because of a fight, and later asked Mr. Huang for more than 280,000 yuan under various pretexts such as partnering with others and urgently needing capital turnover.

At first, Mr. Huang was still immersed in the "love" of lost and regained, and he was responsive to Zhou's needs, not only spending his part-time work savings, but even borrowing money from relatives and friends, and giving his credit card to Zhou to use. But as Zhou postponed the meeting between the parents of the two sides for various reasons, Mr. Huang finally became suspicious, and after learning from relatives and friends, he found that Zhou's mother was healthy and had not been admitted to the ICU at all, and only then realized that he might be deceived.

In October 2022, Mr. Huang finally made up his mind and went to the Gaojing Police Station of the Baoshan Branch of the Shanghai Municipal Public Security Bureau to report the case. After receiving the report, the Gaojing Police Station immediately organized police forces to visit Zhengzhou to investigate, but no trace of Zhou was found. After the Spring Festival in 2023, the police rushed to Zhengzhou again based on the comprehensive research and judgment of the previous clues, and finally successfully arrested Zhou on February 13 with the cooperation of the local police.

After interrogation, Zhou confessed: After she broke up with Mr. Huang, she established a romantic relationship with Wang, who was engaged in car rental, and then because Wang's business lost money, Mr. Huang happened to propose to get back together, and she had the idea of using her ex-boyfriend's money to subsidize her current boyfriend's business. After that, she pretended to get back together with Mr. Huang, and cleverly asked Mr. Huang for more than 280,000 yuan under various pretenses, all of which subsidized her boyfriend Wang's business losses.

At present, the criminal suspect Zhou has been criminally detained by the Baoshan police in accordance with the law on suspicion of fraud, and the case is under further investigation.
