On the same day, he transferred 45,000 yuan (US$6,316) from Yang鈥檚 Alipay account to his own account.
Later, he overdrew more than 100,000 yuan with Yang鈥檚 credit cards.
He used the money to travel to South Korea, Hainan Province and Nanjing in Jiangsu Province. He also dated other women and booked hotel rooms with Yang鈥檚 identity card.
