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

Chapter 713 Unexpected Gain

"Just come back!"

"Let's go in and talk!"

As Ye Shaohong and Yu Manli approached, the old man's cold and solemn expression finally softened.

After saying that, the old man turned around and walked towards the main hall of the mansion.

Following behind the old man, Ye Shaohong entered the main hall of the mansion and immediately saw his father and mother.

Ma Yunfei and Gao Han were also in this room.

Both of them were holding guns, clearly prepared for battle.

That's nothing to say. What really puzzled Ye Shaohong was that a middle-aged man dressed as a servant of the Ye family was kneeling in the main hall.

The moment Ye Shaohong saw the man's face clearly, his eyebrows rose.

"dad!"

"This is?"

Upon hearing Ye Shaohong's question, before Ye's father could even speak, the Ye family servant kneeling on the ground began to tremble all over.

He braced himself on the ground with both hands, turned around abruptly, and kowtowed repeatedly to Ye Shaohong.

"Young Master, I was wrong."

"Please, for the sake of our childhood friendship, spare my life!"

"I beg you!"

The tearful plea finally awakened memories buried deep in Ye Shaohong's mind, allowing him to recognize the person's identity.

"Are you Li Wei?"

"Second son of Uncle Li, what exactly are you doing?"

Without thinking or asking, Ye Shaohong knew that the person in front of him must have committed an unforgivable crime.

Otherwise, the old man and his parents would never have treated this person this way at such a critical moment.

"this……."

Li Wei froze, opening his mouth several times as if to speak, but the words just wouldn't come out.

"Shao Hong, you don't need to ask him anymore."

"This ungrateful wretch! He owed usurious loans because of gambling, and to repay his debts, he secretly colluded with the Japanese."

"They've leaked all about our family situation." The one who spoke was Ye Shaohong's father, who was sitting on a bench on one side of the main hall, his face still showing lingering anger.

"what?"

Ye Shaohong was stunned.

On his way back home, he considered many possibilities, but what he never expected was that his Ye family would also produce a traitor.

It was Ye's servant who sold their entire family's situation to the Japanese devils.

This infuriated Ye Shaohong.

Despite his anger, Ye Shaohong did not lose his temper.

Almost instantly, he guessed the general details and immediately turned to look at Ma Yunfei and Gao Han.

"Can't be wrong!"

"I interrogated the Japanese soldier who was keeping watch outside the house and personally forced him to reveal the truth."

"And... I also found two small yellow croakers in his room!"

It was Ma Yunfei who responded. In the entire Ye family mansion, only he possessed the ability to extract clues and intelligence through torture in a short period of time and uncover hidden traitors.

On this issue, Ye Shaohong could completely trust him.

"Okay!"

“Those damned Japanese devils deserve to be cut into a thousand pieces. They even bribed spies into my home.”

"They are looking for death!"

It's normal for Ye Shaohong to be angry; after all, he's a major in the Special Service Department, and the infamous "Seventh Master of the Underworld" within the Nationalist government.

Outside, his reputation was so fierce that it could stop even a child from crying.

This also made many intelligence agencies wary of him. But who would have thought that someone with such a notorious reputation would have a traitor who defected to the enemy in his own home?

What's the difference between this and slapping him in the face?

Enraged, Ye Shaohong didn't hold back. He stepped forward and kicked the Ye family servant named Li Wei hard in the chest.

With just one kick, Li Wei's face turned deathly pale, and he tilted his head back to spit out bright red blood.

That wasn't enough. Seeing the servant named Li Wei stagger backward, Ye Shaohong took a few more steps to catch up and kicked him several times.

He kicked Li Wei so hard that he collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.

"Young master, spare my life!"

"I was wrong, I was really wrong, please, just forgive me for a little while."

"Even if you don't consider our childhood friendship, you should at least spare me this time for the sake of my father and mother's loyalty to the Ye family."

Li Wei lay on the ground, spitting out blood while begging for mercy.

Clearly, this person is somewhat clever.

He could accurately determine who in this room could decide his fate.

"You still dare to mention your parents?"

"If I remember correctly, Uncle Li died of illness. Before he died, he held your hand and told you to be a good person."

"Is this how you behave?"

"How dare you mention Uncle Li Si and Aunt Li Si?"

Ye Shaohong has now recalled his memories of Uncle Li, who was an extremely simple and honest old man.

The couple had lived in the Ye family for many years and were always trusted by the old man.

Their marriage was personally arranged by Ye Shaohong's grandmother, and their funeral arrangements were also handled by Ye's mother.

Over the years, the Ye family has treated them well.

No matter how powerful or influential the Ye family was outside, they were always kind and compassionate at home.

He also took good care of the servants and their children in the household.

Otherwise, even if the Ye family had moved from Fenghua, Zhejiang Province to this mountain city, so many of their servants wouldn't have been willing to follow them.

But how did Li Wei do it?

Just as Ye's father said, he was ungrateful and got into gambling, which led him to betray their master.

If the Ye family had wronged Li Wei or the Li family in any way, or if Li Wei had betrayed the Ye family, Ye Shaohong wouldn't be so angry. But the Ye family hadn't done anything wrong.

How could Ye Shaohong possibly tolerate this?

How can we let him off so easily?

"Master."

"Young Master, I was wrong, I know I was wrong. I'll accept whatever punishment you want, just please spare my life!"

Just ignore me and let me go!

"I beg you!"

Li Wei clearly knew that the Ye family had done nothing to wrong him, so he couldn't utter any words of accusation or defense. He could only cry and beg.

"You want me to spare your life? Fine!"

"That depends on whether you have a reason for me to spare you."

"Think carefully and see if there's anything I can do to deserve your mercy. If you can tell me, I might give you a chance!" Why did Ye Shaohong suddenly change his attitude? Because just as he was about to continue attacking this guy named Li Wei, he keenly noticed that Ma Yunfei on the side had quietly given him a wink.

This surprised and puzzled Ye Shaohong, but he did not ask any questions. After a brief moment of consideration, he took appropriate measures.

The result, however, brought him unexpected joy...
