I survived as a female assassin

Chapter 128 Bet

"By the way, we've had contact with him recently. Do you think the authorities will consider us suspects?"

"Will they take us back to the prison for interrogation?"

Leng Yue: ...

The more she listened, the more outrageous it seemed. It was just a death of one person, what was the big deal? If she knew that it was Brother Liefeng who killed Guo Zhen, wouldn't she be shocked to the point of fainting?

"What does it have to do with you?"

"Mu Yuan's men are here. We have to go back to Crescent Valley tonight. The old monster specifically instructed us to do so."

When Xin Youran heard that the old monster was looking for her, he thought it was for acupuncture treatment. "Okay, okay. I'll go find Mu Yuan now and try to come back as soon as possible."

On the way to find Mu Yuan, Xin Youran sat in the carriage, thinking about the death of Manager Guo. He must have been murdered.

Could it be that an enemy is hiring someone to assassinate him?

Suddenly, her mind became clear and she remembered the strong wind she encountered last time when she was having dinner with Manager Guo.

Isn’t he the personal bodyguard hired by Manager Guo?

Why didn't she think at that time that he was not just a personal bodyguard, first of all he was the assassin of [Falling Rain]!

Could it be Liefeng who killed Manager Guo?

Could it be that Manager Guo has become a task on the list of [Falling Rain]?

Although he doesn't have any martial ethics, he's a good person. I don't think he'll get himself into any fatal trouble...

Mu Yuan saw that she was absent-minded. She would usually eat the snacks he prepared for her, but today she didn't even look at them.

"Madam, are you in a bad mood today?"

Xin Youran has become immune to calling her "wife". Perhaps he is just used to it and doesn't care anymore. It's just a name anyway.

"It's that Manager Guo from Ningxiang Pavilion I told you about before. Leng Yue said he's dead!"

"I was originally planning to discuss long-term cooperation with him and waited for him at the inn for a whole day, but ended up hearing the news of his death..."

"How can a good person just disappear like that?"

"Maybe he offended someone, so he was assassinated."

Mu Yuan acted like a good student, "Why does my lady think that he was assassinated?"

"Maybe it was suicide?"

"It's not suicide. Think about it, someone who wants to die definitely has no interest in life. But Shopkeeper Guo was still trying hard to restore Ningxiang Pavilion's reputation two days ago."

"It certainly wasn't suicide."

Seeing that she was somewhat more energetic when she talked about this matter, Mu Yuan continued, "How about this, how about we make a bet?"

"A bet? What to bet on?"

"Let's bet on the cause of Shopkeeper Guo's death."

"Of course, we must take the official announcement as the basis."

Xin Youran was indeed aroused. She was now certain that Liefeng had killed this man. If the government investigated and found Liefeng, then Luo Yu would definitely give out the person who issued the bounty order, and then they would find the person who wanted to kill him.

That's equivalent to saying he murdered him.

This bet is already a sure win!

"Okay! So what's our bet?"

Seeing that she had taken the bait, Mu Yuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "If you lose, you must unconditionally promise the other party one thing."

"how?"

Xin Youran thought to herself that she wasn't such a naive person who could be easily deceived. "Okay, okay, but there's one condition: this matter cannot violate public order and good morals."

“It has to be something the other person can do.”

Besides, she will definitely win this game.

Although she didn't know what Mu Yuan could do for her, she should think about it from now on.

"make a deal."

Xin Youran originally wanted to say a few big words to Mu Yuan, but suddenly remembered that she had to return to Crescent Valley quickly, so she didn't talk to him first.

After saying goodbye in a hurry, he left his private residence.
