Chapter 1413 Too Discreet Compared to Her Flancé

The urban village’s people had their own agenda. What they wanted was simple–more money.

They didn’t care what the authorities thought or how things worked behind the scenes. All they knew was that a gullible target had arrived, and they weren’t going to let the opportunity slip by without taking advantage of it.

Over the years, this had become a routine. Their acting skills were impressive. They would always portray themselves as weak and vulnerable, selzing the moral high ground in the process.
