Chapter 405 Coercion
"put……"
Li Bowen was so oxygen-deprived that his brain short-circuited. At that moment, he only had an instinctive self-preservation behavior and couldn't think of anything else!
Old Xu, unaware of the situation, tried to persuade him from the side.
"Boss, calm down."
"Awen, you brat, whose relative are you? Tell me now! Our boss hates liars the most!"
Li Bowen heard it very vaguely. He opened his mouth and spoke after a long while.
"Say it... I'll say it..."
He managed to speak with difficulty.
"Boss, he's willing to talk, so let him go first and see if he's honest!"
"snort!"
Mu Nianbai snorted coldly and withdrew his hand sharply.
With a thud, Li Bowen fell to the ground in a disheveled state. He was freed and breathed in greedily.
After a long while, his complexion gradually returned to normal.
The frequency of his chest heaving was no longer noticeably faster.
However, he still didn't say anything.
His eyes darted around as he tried to figure out how to fool this situation. Besides, he was just a twelve-year-old boy; no matter what he did, he couldn't possibly fool a cunning adult.
For a moment, he was filled with fear and didn't know what to do.
Mu Nianbai looked down at him, crossed his arms, and said coldly.
"Speak up! If you don't tell the truth, you really will die!"
His voice was extremely cold!
Li Bowen asked, "How...do you know me? How do you know I'm Song Chi's relative? What's your relationship with her?"
In a moment of quick thinking, he decided to play dumb!
Who knows, he might be able to get away with pretending to be stupid!
Mu Nianbai stared at him coldly.
"I'm asking you a question, not the other way around!"
"Song Chi is indeed my relative, but I have a grudge against her! It's because she interfered in our relationship."
It caused me to argue with my mom, and she doesn't want me anymore. She wants to cut ties with me, so I ran away from home..."
"Boss, please don't overthink it. He's just a pitiful child!"
"You idiot, shut up!"
Seeing his anger, Old Xu dared not say another word.
Mu Nianbai crouched down and approached Li Bowen.
"So young, yet so dishonest. What benefits did Song Chi give you to risk your life to become an undercover agent, huh?"
He stared at him sharply, as if trying to see clearly whether he was lying!
Li Bowen felt uneasy under his gaze.
He quickly lowered his head and muttered, "I don't understand what you're saying..."
"Heh, don't understand? No problem!"
Mu Nianbai lifted his chin, her voice icy.
"I'll give you a way out, so you won't die!"
Li Bowen's heart was pounding.
"What?"
"Within three days, approach Song Chi and kill her! If she dies, you will live; otherwise..."
His fingers slithered down to his neck, like a venomous snake ready to strike at any moment!
Li Bowen was young, and upon hearing this, he was so frightened that he stared in disbelief, swallowed hard, and trembled all over.
He may have been a scoundrel, hitting people and robbing his classmates, but he never dared to actually kill anyone!
Moreover, this person is his relative!
This was like the sky falling down for him.
"Heh, scared now?"
"I...I'm not afraid at all! I hate Song Chi, I've disliked her for a long time. Just you wait, she won't live more than three days!"
"Haha, great! I'll be waiting for your good news. If you succeed, we'll be brothers from now on!"
Mu Nianbai's last assassination attempt on Song Chi was foiled, and he was worried about not having anyone trustworthy to use. Unexpectedly, Li Bowen was delivered to him for free.
Furthermore, Li Bowen's killing of Song Chi made it easier for him to get close to her than anyone else's.
"Not yet," he threatened.
"Li Bowen, don't try anything funny. I'll put your mother under house arrest. If you don't behave, your mother will meet her maker before you do!"
Li Bowen: "..."
He was just relieved that this person was easy to fool, but unexpectedly, the next moment, he himself was the one who was completely manipulated.
Originally, the relationship between the mother and son was extremely strained, but recently, their relationship has finally eased.
I never imagined I would face such a tremendous challenge!
Life is truly unpredictable...

United States
In the rented room
Mu Yin lay in bed, his wounds had scabbed over after several dressing changes, and he was able to get out of bed and walk again.
He stepped out of the house and discovered it was a large European-style villa, while his room was in the most secluded corner, looking like a maid's room...
When Ali returned from work, covered in dust, she saw him standing in the yard.
"Why did you come out? Your wound hasn't fully healed yet, and you're already out here. Don't let the wind revive it! Let's go inside!"
Ali cared about him, but at the same time, she was also afraid.
Because he's so handsome, he becomes the center of attention wherever he goes.
She got a cheap 'husband' and doesn't want someone else to snatch him away.
"Honey, let's go back quickly!"
As they were talking, Ali approached him, wanting to help him into the house.
"Don't touch me!"
Mu Yin was very disgusted and took a step back.
In particular, the fact that she called him "husband" made him feel extremely disgusted!
In fact, the disgust was so intense that I felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.
"old……"
"Don't call me that, call me by my name!"
"Wei, what's wrong..."
Mu Yin: "..."
He didn't know it either; he just felt a deep-seated aversion to her getting close to him and calling him "husband."
Mu Yin pointed to the villa behind him and asked.
"Is this the house we rented?"
"We rented the smallest maid's room; the other rooms are too expensive for us!"
"If you don't have money, make money. Why make yourself suffer?"
Mu Yin didn't realize that he was used to living in a big house and was never afraid of the unknown!
Ali mistakenly thought he was concerned about her, and felt a warmth in her heart.
"Wei, I will work hard to earn money so we can live in a big house!"
Mu Yin glanced at her and then noticed that her belly was slightly swollen.
"Your stomach?"
"Awei, this is our child!"
Mu Yin frowned deeply!
They actually have a child?
He found it incredible, but deep down he believed that as a husband and father, he needed to be responsible!
Although he was disgusted, he still spoke with a serious expression.
"Once I'm healed, I'll go earn money to support you all."
Ali's eyes lit up; she felt like she had struck gold!
"Ah Wei, you're so kind!"
Ali was deeply moved. When she looked at him more closely, she suddenly noticed that his face and body were covered with a large number of red rashes that appeared rapidly and visibly.
"Awei, what...what happened to your face, neck, and hands...?"
Mu Yin looked down and realized that his whole body was covered in red rashes, accompanied by itching and pain.
Mu Yin: "..."
He didn't know what was going on either.
No one could have imagined that Cheng Shu's unintentional remark about "transferring" actually transferred Song Chi's illness to Mu Yin...
"Awei, let's go back inside quickly. I'll get some ointment for you to apply. Oh, by the way, my visa is expiring soon, and I need to go back to China. Let's get ready too; we're leaving tomorrow..."
