Chapter 529: The Shortsighted County Magistrate

"Humph, even if I had originally planned to consider your proposal, your escape from prison on your own accord still means you must be punished,"

If it were from a superior, it might be tolerable; after all, they were higher up, and one could just bear it.

But this kid, with neither money nor background, relying merely on his brawn and brute force, to think he could lord over him—that simply couldn't be allowed!

"You won't consider it, huh? Then there's no helping it,"

Tian Peng spread his hands helplessly, "If you'd consider my proposal, maybe I would be somewhat lenient with you. If not, then we have no basis for cooperation, and likewise, I have no need to be lenient with you."
