The Favored Little Peasant Seizes the Heroine's Script!-Chapter 475 - 437: Place Your Bets!

Some enemies, Wei Wushang doesn’t mind accepting their surrender, but some enemies are too unstable and are likely to be untrustworthy turncoats.

People like Mu Lin, in Wei Wushang’s eyes, are untrustworthy turncoats.

The best way to deal with such people is to hit them hard and eliminate them. Don’t have the slightest bit of mercy. As for the promises and benefits this kind of person offers, they should be regarded even less.

"Wei Wushang!"

Witnessing Wei Wushang’s ruthless side again, Mu Lin couldn’t help but roar in anger.

"If you kill me today, you will surely regret it in the future!"

"If you let me go, I swear I won’t do anything against the Wei Family for the rest of my life!"

"But if I die here, then my people will certainly persist in endless strife with your Wei Family."

"You men of the Wei Family are formidable, but the women of the Wei Family may not be!"

"Remember, you can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can’t guard against a thief for a thousand days!"

"Wei Wushang, whether it’s having more enemies forever lurking in the dark or letting me go, you’d better think it over!"

Upon hearing Mu Lin’s threats and intimidation, Wei Wushang couldn’t help but laugh.

He stared at Mu Lin with piercing eyes, shook his head slightly, and said, "Do you know, before this, I was actually quite wary of you!"

"But now, you come across to me as an insignificant clown!"

"I overestimated you!"

After speaking, Wei Wushang paid no more attention to Mu Lin’s words, directly taking Yuan Bao’s hand and leaving.

"Stop!"

"Wei Wushang, stop for me!"

"If you are still a man, fight me with real swords and guns!"

"Stop!"

Seeing Wei Wushang leaving so decisively, Mu Lin panicked, shouting angrily.

However, it was useless.

After Wei Wushang and Yuan Bao walked out of the room, Wei Wushang looked at the two confidants standing outside the door, nodded to them, and said, "Send him on his way!"

"Yes!"

The two responded respectfully and entered the room.

"Let’s go!"

Wei Wushang looked at Yuan Bao and, without waiting for any reply from inside, left directly with Yuan Bao.

"Uncle, are we leaving just like this?"

Yuan Bao looked at Wei Wushang, implying that even if they were leaving, they should at least see Mu Lin truly dead.

Upon hearing Yuan Bao’s question, Wei Wushang raised his hand, vertical finger, making a gesture for silence.

"Hmm...?!"

Upon seeing the gesture, Yuan Bao instantly understood—it was intentional by Wei Wushang, but why?

Wei Wushang did not speak, merely leaving the residence with Yuan Bao.

Then, Wei Wushang took Yuan Bao straight to the tea house around the corner of the alley at the back door of this mansion.

"Uncle, you’re not planning to let Mu Lin go, are you?"

Seeing Wei Wushang’s posture, Yuan Bao guessed his intention at once.

Wei Wushang smiled and said, "Yes!"

"Mu Lin has actually turned to Great Yin. His goal is definitely to target Daxia, to target the Wei Family. Killing him now is actually meaningless!"

"Nothing ventured, nothing gained?"

Wei Wushang didn’t believe that Mu Lin would choose to surrender, after all, the hatred of a father’s murder is irreconcilable.

As for whether Marquis Wugong Mansion really colluded with Great Yin and committed treason, Wei Wushang didn’t know.

To outsiders, it seemed like the Wei Family was behind the force against them.

But in reality, from what Wei Wushang knew, no one from the Wei Family targeted Marquis Wugong.

The collapse of Marquis Wugong Mansion seemed more like the handiwork of the Sound Listening Bureau.

However, Wei Wushang had no evidence.

"Uncle, aren’t you worried about letting the tiger go back to the mountains?"

Yuan Bao didn’t understand where Wei Wushang’s confidence came from.

Mu Lin was no ordinary person.

Don’t be fooled by Mu Lin’s previous underwhelming performance—that was only because he thought his life was ending. Once he narrowly escapes death, he will definitely be someone else.

If Mu Lin were truly a good-for-nothing, why would Sheng Xueyi, this transmigrated woman from another world, go through the trouble to be with him?

"Worried, yes!"

Hearing Yuan Bao’s words, Wei Wushang didn’t pretend to be fearless.

"It’s just that we can’t wait for absolute certainty before acting, right?"

"Right!"

Yuan Bao nodded.

Life is full of uncertainties.

No matter how well-thought-out someone is, every decision is essentially a gamble. The chance of winning or losing is always fifty-fifty.

Even if one claims to have a 99% assurance of success, before the final victory is revealed, there remains a possibility of failure.

Moreover, this probability is always half-and-half.

"Of course, the main reason for not killing him is that he is already exposed."

"Compared to Great Yin sending someone else, a familiar exposed adversary is far better than an unfamiliar hidden one."

"Most importantly, my people will keep an eye on him!"

"Regarding surveillance, my people are as good, if not better than the Sound Listening Bureau... Here he comes!"

Having decided to let the tiger return to the mountains, it would be foolish not to arrange some follow-up measures.

"Here he comes!"

With this sudden exclamation from Wei Wushang, Yuan Bao saw someone, similar in height and build to Mu Lin but whose appearance and attire had completely changed, stumble out from the alley by the mansion’s back door.

This person, dressed in ragged clothes, at first glance, looked like a beggar.

But those eyes were very bright.

"Uncle, where are the people surveilling?"

Upon discovering Mu Lin’s figure, Yuan Bao started looking for those whom Wei Wushang might have arranged to keep an eye on him, but found nothing.

Yuan Bao was indeed a master now. With her sharp eyes, if she hadn’t spotted the trackers, it was indeed shocking for her.

"Silly girl, when watching such people, you naturally need special means to do so!"

Wei Wushang smiled slightly, "If you can spot them right away, so can Mu Lin, with just some effort!"

"Uncle, are you saying those surveilling can’t be found?"

Yuan Bao didn’t believe it.

Wei Wushang nodded, saying, "They can’t be found!"

"Impossible, I’ll definitely find them!"

Yuan Bao decided to take on the challenge.

Seeing Yuan Bao like this, Wei Wushang laughed and said, "Shall we make a bet?"

"Bet it is!"

Yuan Bao now had plenty of confidence!

Her skills were more than enough to suppress Wei Wushang, and her perception of her surroundings was very keen.

"What do we bet?"

"If I can’t find them, I owe you a favor, Uncle!"

"On the contrary, you owe me one, Uncle!"

Yuan Bao was determined.

Wei Wushang, however, was quite amused and said, "Then, a gentleman’s word is his bond, no going back!"

"No going back!"

Yuan Bao replied with pride!
