Chapter 1364 - 1379: Life Is Like a Play
After hanging up the phone, Tang Hongwei looked out the window, his fists clenched. At this point, both his son and grandson were done for, meaning he had no attachments left in this world. No matter how much more money or how many more assets he acquired, they were useless to him now! So what he had to do now was vow to get rid of Lin Mu at any cost!
Tang Hongwei turned, glanced at Tang Zhilong lying on the bed, and took a deep breath. This blow was simply too much for Tang Hongwei to bear; while he could endure many things, he could not endure the pain of losing his descendants...
At this moment, it was as if Tang Hongwei’s heart was empty, leaving only the word "revenge." His heart was filled with hatred!
It was lunchtime, and Lin Mu and Haihua found a place to have a hearty meal.
"Hubby, what are we doing this afternoon?" Haihua asked after finishing their meal.
"Hehe, how about going back to the hotel with me and doing what we love the most?" Lin Mu smiled.
"You’re so naughty, I’m not doing it, it still hurts a bit, hubby you’re so bad..." Haihua pouted.
"You’ll get used to it over time. You know, this is about finding joy in hardship. Once you get used to my rhythm, you’ll find it enjoyable. Eventually, this habit will become a pleasure!" Lin Mu said with a mischievous grin.
Haihua thought about what Lin Mu said, and indeed, it made sense. Although there was a bit of pain, that pain also seemed to mix with a lot of pleasure, making her feel really good. Especially after the quick friction, it felt like her whole body was floating.
"Okay, we’ll arrange your dad’s affairs this afternoon," Lin Mu said. Of course, he was just joking about fooling around with Haihua. He wasn’t like that Gray Wolf type who stays with women all day long. That kind of man lacks ambition, while he was the legendary Wolf Fang Soldier King Lin Mu, naturally incomparable to a rogue like Gray Wolf!
"Arrange what for my dad?" Haihua asked in confusion.
"I think the Tang Sect definitely knows about my situation, including all my connections in Handan. I killed Tang Zhilong, so the Tang Sect will go to any lengths to retaliate against me. Because I killed his only son, even his grandson is practically dead. Tang Hongwei will never let me go. Of course, I’m not afraid of his retaliation, just worried he might target you and your dad. You’re safe with me, but your dad isn’t. I can’t exactly cuddle with your dad at night, right?" Lin Mu said, then made a joke.
"Get out of here!" Haihua lightly hit Lin Mu and then asked worriedly, "So what do we do about my dad? I don’t want anything to happen to him. In this world, only you and my dad are the closest to me now. I don’t want to lose either of you."
"Don’t worry, I won’t let anything happen to your dad," Lin Mu said. Speaking of protecting Scarface, Lin Mu thought of someone suitable: King Kong. With King Kong’s strength, Lin Mu was completely confident, and since King Kong was free, it would be perfect to give him this task. But it’s kind of funny, King Kong was the one who kidnapped him initially, and now he’s going to protect Scarface.
It makes one sigh; life is like a play! No one can predict what scene fate will arrange for you in the next second.
"So what are you planning to do?" Haihua asked.
"No rush, I’ll make a call first," Lin Mu smiled, then took out his phone and called King Kong.
The call rang for a while before King Kong answered.
"Hello, Brother Lin," King Kong said, breathing heavily.
"Hey, King Kong, what are you up to?" Lin Mu asked.
"Just finished a thousand push-ups. What’s up?" King Kong replied.
Damn, a thousand push-ups! No wonder this guy is built like a mountain and moves like the wind. Turns out it’s all the result of devil training. Of course, speaking of push-ups, Lin Mu’s record is even more insane. His usual is five thousand, so it’s easy to understand why Lin Mu has god-like performance when doing that thing with beauties!
"I have something I want to ask you, is that okay?" Lin Mu asked.
Though King Kong had agreed to be his underling and follow him from then on, Lin Mu felt they hadn’t yet reached the level of tacit understanding he had with Earth Wolf. After all, they’d just met and weren’t very familiar with each other’s characters, so he needed to ask King Kong’s opinion.
Of course, they’d made a bet and Lin Mu won, so it was under this promise that King Kong agreed to follow him. But it wasn’t the kind of lifelong dedication; they hadn’t reached a life-and-death brotherhood. Although King Kong had given his word, it didn’t signify deeper feelings.
If Lin Mu wanted him to follow him loyally and serve him wholeheartedly, he would need to do something that genuinely impressed King Kong. People need to experience things together to build deep bonds.
Without experiencing storms together, talking about sticking together through thick and thin is just empty words.
It’s not that Lin Mu doubted King Kong’s sincerity; quite the opposite, he admired King Kong’s straightforward character. If King Kong truly follows a leader, it would be a lifetime with no second thoughts.
Such people are very reliable; things others don’t value are important in the eyes of people like him. Some might see them as simple-minded, but in the realm of honor and loyalty, such people are indeed the most dependable.
"Brother Lin, just tell me!" King Kong said.
"I want to ask you to protect someone," Lin Mu said.
"Who?" King Kong asked.
"The person you kidnapped last night," Lin Mu said.
"Sure, no problem." King Kong agreed without hesitation.
Since King Kong agreed, Lin Mu had nothing to worry about. He instructed King Kong to come to the hotel later to pick him up and send him to the Hai family’s mansion.
Ten minutes later, Haihua drove to the hotel, and from a distance, she saw a particularly tall man standing at the hotel entrance. His stature continually drew the attention of those around him. There were indeed a lot of tall people, but someone this tall and strong, almost a size bigger than Yao Ming, was indeed rare!
Haihua parked the car, and luckily she was driving a large SUV this time. Otherwise, with King Kong’s size, there would have been no way for him to fit. Lin Mu waved to King Kong, and he walked over.
King Kong opened the car door and got in, and once all three were seated, Haihua drove toward her family’s mansion.
On the way, Lin Mu chatted briefly with King Kong. This guy still seemed as silent as ever, hardly saying a word. Talking to him was seriously frustrating; strange, are guys with developed limbs really that simple-minded? Lin Mu finally realized this truth, although it’s not exactly a useful conclusion.
