Chapter 1380 - 1395: Sleep
With Lin Mu’s personality, as soon as he gets home, he puts aside the outside matters, no matter how big or difficult they are, and he tries to relax himself. It’s because Lin Mu doesn’t want external affairs to affect his family life.
This is also the key to Lin Mu’s success as a man. He can pick things up and let them go! That’s a true man, even if rivals like the North China Tang Sect are eyeing him, Lin Mu remains calm and composed. This is the realm of being a person!
"Haha, dear beauties! It’s been a while since you last saw me, you must really miss me, right?" Lin Mu said narcissistically with a smile, "Raise your hand if you miss me, scream if you love me, or come closer if you both miss and love me..."
For some reason, the beauties were very cooperative with Lin Mu today; none of them mocked him, instead they all nodded in agreement and gathered around Lin Mu, indicating that they really missed him!
"Haha, dear beauties, why are you being so kind to me today? It’s making me feel a bit out of place!" Lin Mu smiled, indeed feeling a bit unaccustomed, as according to past habits, he would surely face disdain and eye-rolls from this group of girls.
"Brother Lin, even though you are joking to cheer us up, we know that deep down you feel very congested and upset. It’s because someone is killing innocent people at the film base..." Zhou Xun pointedly said, "But, Brother Lin, please don’t worry too much..."
Wow... turns out the beauties are behaving this way because of this matter! No wonder they’re being so obedient! After a few days of not seeing each other, these girls seemed to have learned to console and cheer me up!
Lin Mu helplessly shook his head, also understanding why the girls were giving him so much face; it was because they were afraid he’d be too heartbroken and accidentally find a rooftop to leap from...
"It’s okay, I’m fine..." Lin Mu chuckled as he sat down. Saying he wasn’t worried would be a lie; this matter was more bothering than anything else, as it concerns the lives of many civilians! As they say, life and death are critical, so Lin Mu, as one of the concerned parties, couldn’t help but care! This matter has direct relation to him.
And at this moment, the one under the most pressure is Qi Manlin, because Wancheng is Qi Manlin’s jurisdiction. Such a major case occurred, and the higher-ups must have considerable pressure on Qi Manlin as well.
Lin Mu deliberately acted more relaxed in front of the beauties because he knew that if he showed worry and anxiety, the beauties would definitely be worried too, so Lin Mu could only display his happy side.
Everyone comforted each other and chatted for a while. The beauties were tired and went back to their rooms to rest. Lin Mu sat alone on the sofa, reached for a cigarette, lit it, and began to slowly puff away.
At this moment, Lin Mu was constantly puzzled by one thing: who exactly is the Master Lu that Wasp mentioned?
This Master Lu is dealing with him like this; what on earth did he do to offend him?
It can’t be for no reason, right? There must be some reason, but what could it be? Yet, cigarette after cigarette, with smoke butts scattered around, Lin Mu still couldn’t figure it out.
"Not going to sleep?" Qi Manlin stood behind Lin Mu in pink pajamas and asked.
"I will, but I’ll sleep holding you." Lin Mu turned around with a smile.
Actually, at this moment, Lin Mu and Qi Manlin had the most common ground, as they shared common concerns.
"Brother Lin, who do you think this Master Lu could be?" Qi Manlin leaned on Lin Mu’s shoulder and asked softly, and at this moment, the chief police officer was different from her usual fiery personality, showing how a man can only experience real gentleness when a woman is thoroughly pleased.
"I can’t figure it out either; it’s my biggest mystery. Why would this Master Lu target our Flying Dragon Group in such a way?" Lin Mu was equally puzzled. Although he has offended quite a few people, those who dare do something so reckless, in Wancheng or the whole Pearl River Delta, there really aren’t many. Also, this matter obviously seems to be well-planned. Without strong capability, even with money, it couldn’t be done!
"Brother Lin, I’m worried something will happen to you. Your safety is the most important, so please be extra careful." Qi Manlin, unusually gentle tonight, spoke softly.
"Haha, police flower girl, I’ve discovered a problem!" Lin Mu laughed and said.
"What problem?" Qi Manlin looked up suspiciously and asked.
"I noticed you’re much softer tonight!" Lin Mu smiled.
"So, are you saying that previously I wasn’t soft at all, and was very crude, is that it?" The chief police officer seemed to have changed her tone, and Lin Mu knew she was thinking of transforming, and in a blink of an eye, she could turn into a fierce crocodile that eats people without spitting bones! Oh, so scary!
"Haha, no, I didn’t mean that!" Lin Mu quickly explained in a low voice, "It’s just that you weren’t as gentle as tonight before, tonight you’re way too gentle, it’s almost overwhelming..."
"Humph, I think you were born to have a miserable fate! Destined to be beaten..." Qi Manlin huffed and then quickly pinched Lin Mu’s waist with her fingers,
"Ouch..." This woman is ruthless, specially targeting the tenderest flesh on a man’s waist! Lin Mu winced in pain, "Geez, this is too painful! It’s ruining my dignity; I must punish you..."
Lin Mu said, flipping over and then pressing Qi Manlin down, Qi Manlin also put up a fight tonight, immediately responding enthusiastically...
