Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 149 Yu Manli: My Lord

The radio and codebook were destroyed, and one person died?

The originally foolproof plan was thwarted by Li Yunlong's momentary negligence, and half of the credit was immediately lost.

This made Ye Shaohong very dissatisfied.

He frowned and glanced at Li Yunlong before walking straight up to the disheveled man and woman.

Ye Shaohong didn't look at the woman with her breasts half exposed, but instead raised his hand and tore open the man's right shoulder.

A cocoon, its color different from the surrounding skin, immediately became visible.

"A veteran of the military."

"Judging by the thickness of these calluses, your marksmanship must be pretty good too."

After confirming the person's identity, Ye Shaohong's cold expression finally eased slightly. He waved his hand, and the field agents immediately escorted the man and woman away.

Only then did Ye Shaohong lift his foot and walk towards the backyard of Xiaoxiang Club.

Upon arriving at the explosion site,

Ye Shaohong immediately noticed the corpse lying on the ground and the radio fragments scattered everywhere after the explosion.

"Where is the person who did it? Have they been caught?"

What has already happened cannot be changed, and Ye Shaohong is too lazy to pursue the matter any further. What he cares about most now is the outcome of the subsequent handling of the case.

Fortunately, Li Yunlong did not disappoint Ye Shaohong this time.

He waved his hand, and two field agents dragged over a middle-aged woman in her thirties or forties who had already lost consciousness. "Team leader, she is the one who detonated the bomb."

"I just asked around, and this person is a cook at Xiaoxiang Club. After detonating the bomb, she tried to escape by climbing over the wall, but was stopped by the brothers guarding outside."

“During the arrest, the woman tried to resist, and the men who were attacking her lost control of their strength and knocked her unconscious.”

As Li Yunlong said this, he was carefully observing Ye Shaohong's expression and secretly guessing at Ye Shaohong's mood.

"It's good that they caught him."

"Since the radio and codebook have been destroyed, there is no point in conducting a large-scale search."

"Close the team!"

“Take all the customers and prostitutes outside, as well as the other staff members inside the Xiaoxiang Club, back with them.”

After giving a brief instruction, Ye Shaohong left the Xiaoxiang Clubhouse first. He did not return to the Honggongci Villa, but went directly back to the small courtyard he was renting.

Although it was very late, Yu Manli hadn't rested yet and was waiting for him.

Upon seeing Ye Shaohong return, Yu Manli immediately went to the kitchen and brought out the meal she had prepared in advance, and even poured Ye Shaohong a glass of wine.

Yu Manli smiled as she watched Ye Shaohong wolf down his food.

Smile a lot.

"Oh, right, there's something I forgot to tell you. This morning I sent someone to the rouge shop at Chaotian Palace and arrested that man, taking him to the South City Police Station."

Ye Shaohong did not mention the person's name, nor did he mention the relationship between the person and Yu Manli, because Yu Manli would understand without him saying it.

"I know!"

“This afternoon, I went to Chaotian Palace and saw that the rouge shop was closed. I asked the neighbors nearby, and they told me that the man had been arrested.”

Yu Manli clearly didn't want to mention him either, and like Ye Shaohong, she used a pseudonym. When she spoke, she even got up to pour Ye Shaohong another drink.

"So, you waited for me specially today as a reward for me?"

Ye Shaohong stopped picking up food, looked up at Yu Manli with interest, and smiled.

"That's it."

Yu Manli smiled, her lips pursed. At this moment, she was charming and alluring. Coupled with the cheongsam that Ye Shaohong had specially made her wear, her slender figure was even more tempting.

"I've gone to so much trouble for you, and this is how you treat me?"

"One meal isn't enough to reward me!"

Ye Shaohong suddenly raised his hand and pulled Yu Manli into his arms. His large hand, which was not holding chopsticks, was placed unscrupulously on Yu Manli's long and round thighs and began to wander.

"My goodness, stop fooling around and eat!"

Yu Manli raised her hand and gently patted Ye Shaohong's palm. In the instant Ye Shaohong paused, she laughed sweetly and broke free from Ye Shaohong's clutches.

Ye Shaohong shook his head in slight disappointment.

However, he did not continue to do so, but instead picked up the wine glass on the table and took a small sip.

At the same time, Yu Manli did not leave. Instead, she moved gracefully behind Ye Shaohong, placing her two fair and jade-like hands on his shoulders and gently massaging them.

This finally brought a smile to Ye Shaohong's face, and he started eating again.

After the meal, seeing that Yu Manli did not immediately clear the dishes, Ye Shaohong looked at Yu Manli with surprise again.

"What, is there something else?" "You wouldn't... want to plead for that man, would you?"

When Ye Shaohong asked this question, he was also somewhat incredulous, and even he himself didn't quite believe it was possible.

"Sir, that man, have someone teach him a lesson and get rid of him!"

"He is despicable. I wish I could kill him with my own hands and tear him apart, but if he dies, what will happen to my poor mother and my brother whom I have never met!"

Yu Manli spoke these two sentences with great difficulty, almost uttering each word slowly and deliberately.

It was clear that Yu Manli was struggling intensely as she spoke, but this seemingly tough but actually gentle woman ultimately could not resist the shackles of feudal ethics and reluctantly tried to persuade Ye Shaohong.

Yu Manli knew that given Ye Shaohong's ruthless nature, if she didn't plead for him today, the man who sold her would have no chance of survival. "Let him go?"

"Aren't you afraid that if I let him go today, he'll come back to bother you again?"

"And have you considered that, given his character, would he be good to your mother? If you're really worried about them, I can arrange for someone to check on them and send them some money; that might be better."

To be honest, Ye Shaohong genuinely didn't want to let that man go. It wasn't that he harbored any deep hatred for him; he simply didn't want to cause himself any trouble.

Why create unnecessary trouble when a problem can be solved in one go?

"I've thought about that too."

"If someone gives them some money or helps them acquire some property, they might be able to survive."

“But in this era, it’s impossible to have a family without a man. Not to mention outsiders, even people from the same village and clan will try to bully them and seize their money if they see that there is no man in their family.”

Ye Shaohong was somewhat familiar with Manli's statement. Although clan concepts were very strong during the Republic of China era, they did indeed provide a lot of help to people of that time.

But everything has its good and bad sides. While clan power protects its members, it can also breed a lot of dirty deeds.

For example, bullying and exploiting others.

And this is a common occurrence.

"Alright, since you've already asked, how can I refuse?"

"But that man is indeed hateful, and we can't let him go so easily. Let's keep him in Nancheng Prison for a year, let him suffer a bit, and then give him some money to get out of here."

Does Ye Shaohong really want to release the person?

He genuinely wanted to. After all, Yu Manli had already spoken up, and he didn't want to hurt her feelings, but Ye Shaohong also didn't want to put himself in a difficult position.

So he set up an ambush here.

Let's lock that bastard up for a while and teach him a lesson. As for whether he can live for a year and eventually get out of Nancheng Prison, Ye Shaohong makes no guarantee.
