Chinese source:

During their 3 year relationship, he has burrowed 1.25 million RMB (around 180k USD) from her family. Initially, he asked for 400k, then another 850k later to "buy a car". He didn't buy any car. When confronted about the money, he claimed he had spent it all. She did write an IOU note when lending him the money.
Why can this be considered fraud? (the reason he got arrested)
Apparently they didn't register for a marriage certificate, so legally they are not married even had the wedding went through. Since they aren't married and there's an IOU, their relationship can be considered as one between a lender and burrower.

This is an awesome idea.
I'm going to hire Ian McKellen to be my teacher in wizardry, Richard Armitage as my close friend and a king of a faraway kingdom, and Sean Bean as my father who will die on the day of the wedding due to an orc attack.

Based on the money he was getting and spending from her family it was either an attempt to scam her and get into money which sounds likely from this.
Or he's shit with his money for the most part and he's really embarrassed by his family/friends who may not be "sophisticated" enough.
But going with scammer.
