I insist

Chapter 41: A Battle of Wits and Courage

Yu Huailin couldn't help but laugh as he watched the woman pretending to be stupid.

She wasn't like this in front of me before. I don't know when it started, but suddenly she became cautious.

Let him think about it. It probably started after he caught him in the act last time, right?

Is this audacious woman actually afraid?

Yu Huailin did not expose her disguise. How could this woman know that in front of Feng Bujue, her disguise would not last long?

There was no need for me to say anything to remind her; sometimes it was quite amusing to see this woman acting so self-righteous.

This was something to keep me entertained throughout the journey.

Thinking of this, Yu Huailin withdrew his gaze and looked at Feng Bujue beside him once again.

"Keep an eye on it. Contact me if anything important comes up."

Feng Bujue had been eyeing the two of them with a curious gaze, but after hearing this, he could only suppress his curiosity, give a few instructions, and leave.

Song Miqiu never breathed a sigh of relief from beginning to end. Even though the divine doctor, Feng Bujue, had already left, she felt that the person in front of her was even more terrifying.

"Why aren't you saying anything? There's no need to pretend in front of me, is there?"

Song Miqiu watched as he spoke so frankly. Although they both knew some things, there were still many people around. Was he really not worried at all?

But thinking about it carefully, this man has already arranged to meet the miracle doctor here for a secret talk, so what is there to worry about?

Thinking about it this way made me feel better, but the sense of crisis in my heart still hadn't subsided.

"I just don't know what to say. After all, hearing about what happened to you guys makes me unsure whether it's a good thing or a bad thing."

In front of such a clever person, Song Miqiu knew very well that telling useless lies would undoubtedly diminish his impression of the person.

She didn't care how this man viewed her; she only cared whether he would take her life because of her deceit.

Sure enough, Yu Huailin chuckled softly after hearing this. It has to be said that if you ignore the man's dangerousness, his laughter is really pleasant to hear.

Before Song Miqiu could even immerse herself in the laughter, the man suddenly moved closer to her!

Looking at the handsome face so close to her, Song Miqiu suddenly tensed up, and even her heart began to pound faster.

However, she knew very well that her face must be pale at that moment!

Because the man's hand slowly reached towards the back of his neck, a place that anyone with common sense should know how vulnerable it is.

Especially after guessing the terrifying strength of the man in front of her, Song Miqiu even wondered if her neck would be snapped before she even felt any pain.

Then, the scene I expected—being choked by the back of my neck—did not happen. Instead, the man's hand moved upwards and slowly moved to my ear.

That place is precisely where one's own facade of morality is connected!

Song Miqiu couldn't help but slow her breathing, as if that would make people not feel her fear.

However, Yu Huailin seemed completely oblivious to her nervousness, even speaking softly and smiling.

"Who exactly are you? What is your purpose in disguising yourself like this? A woman, full of secrets, have you never worried about your own life or death?"

Yu Huailin was genuinely curious because this woman didn't seem very brave, yet what she did exceeded everyone's expectations.

She had already revealed too many secrets to him. If he wanted to, he could take her life or even find someone to impersonate her and then trace the clues to find all the people behind them.

This woman is intelligent; she should have thought of these things much earlier.

But she still chose to cooperate with him, which is why he has not chosen to kill her. He probably wanted to see what other tricks this woman could play.

Thinking about this, Yu Huailin felt somewhat ridiculous. Perhaps he had truly given up on himself and was willing to waste his time on such a person.

Just as he was about to back away, he didn't expect that this woman would actually muster up the courage to speak.

"If I say I don't know, would you believe me? But even if you don't believe me, it doesn't matter, I have truly forgotten what my purpose was."

Song Miqiu was not lying, so his eyes were naturally very sincere.

She stared intently at Yu Huailin in front of her, so close that Song Miqiu could even see her own reflection in his eyes.

And at this moment, I feel so earnest and frank.

Yu Huailin hadn't expected the woman to make such an expression. He hadn't expected to get any information from her, but her reaction still amused him.

"Alright, in that case, I won't ask any further questions."

Song Miqiu was somewhat stunned. This man gave up so easily?

This is not what I guessed.

She had initially thought that this man had finally lost his temper and was about to make a move on her.

However, she had to admit that she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the man was some distance away from her.

However, Yu Huailin quickly turned back.

"I've heard that Linglin City has beautiful scenery. Why don't we go and have a look around together?"

If it weren't for fear of this man's strength, Song Miqiu probably would have cursed him out.

What kind of scenery are you looking at in the middle of the night?

Moreover, would any normal woman really want to go sightseeing with such a terrifying and perverted man?

Song Miqiu felt that she was still a normal person, so she would never agree!

But refusing outright seems a bit impolite.

"Let me settle them down first. I don't have the mind to do anything else until then."

For the first time, Song Miqiu realized that his adopted son was a very good excuse.

Yu Huailin didn't insist, and the night finally passed peacefully.

However, the next day, as Song Miqiu walked on the road, he had a plan in mind.

Yu Huailin has too many secrets. If so many people are kept with him, everyone will be in danger!

After all, no one knows when this man will suddenly go crazy. If he wants to kill people to silence them, then all these people combined will not be a match for him.

So, during a break, Song Miqiu simply made up an excuse and separated from the main force.
