"Alright, contact if there's any news, let's leave it at that."
"Hmm, old man, haven't you already transferred from Xinjiang to Beijing? Can we grandfather and grandson et? It's been more than half a year since we last t. I wonder if the old man has aged?" Lin Mu continued.
"Rest assured, this old man is temporarily still alive, and certainly won't age uselessly so fast, I'm the sa as before, so for now we won't et because I have many things to busy myself with," Elder Lin replied.
"Aha, then I'm relieved, don't have to see your old face, old man," Lin Mu chuckled.
"Damn it, you scoundrel, once I finish this affair, I'll send you off to Africa for a few years," ca Elder Lin's angry curses over the phone, but Lin Mu hung up before Elder Lin could continue.
No words were spoken that night. The next morning, Lin Mu briefly ntioned his trip to Beijing to a few of his sisters at ho to prevent the won from speculating about his whereabouts.
"Hey, you bastard, why are you going to Beijing?" Qi Manlin asked while eating.
"I'm investigating a major case, it's quite involved, can't explain it in a couple of sentences, but it's no small matter," Lin Mu said.
"Oh." Qi Manlin didn't ask further, just nodded.
After breakfast, the won left for work and school, and Lin Mu tidied up before driving to the hotel where Man Luo was staying. At the hotel entrance, Lin Mu called Man Luo.
Soon, Man Luo erged from the hotel, dressed all in black leather - jacket, pants, shoes - looking sexy and attractive. This ti, her lips weren't as bright red; previously, she looked dazzling, now she was alluring.
However, Lin Mu preferred her current appearance; a dazzling woman is suited for flirtation, while Lin Mu wanted Man Luo as his wife, so he preferred her not to be too flashy.
Man Luo walked to the car door, and Lin Mu, like a gentleman, opened the door for her, then invited her into the passenger seat.
"Are we driving?" Man Luo asked after getting in.
Lin Mu nodded, "Mm-hmm, driving."
Man Luo acknowledged, without saying more. Actually, driving was fine, they could slowly enjoy the scenery along the way. Life is like a journey; the end point is not what matters, it's the sights along the way. Flying is different, only offering a monotonous view of clouds. Plus, Man Luo had a fear of heights, so she preferred the slower car ride to Beijing.
So Lin Mu drove onto the highway with Man Luo. With Lin Mu's driving skills, they would reach Beijing within two days, where the old man had everything arranged. They could go straight to the Huaxia Military Science and Technology Research Institute for assistance upon arriving in Beijing.
The car sped along the highway with Lin Mu maneuvering his red Bugatti Veyron while Man Luo played on her phone. Lin Mu felt quite bored, and said to Man Luo in the passenger seat, "Hey, don't just play with your phone, keep your brother company, okay?"
"It's not safe to chat too much while driving, you're going so fast, if sothing happens, your worthless life doesn't matter, but I don't want to die with you," Man Luo said, not taking her eyes off her phone.
"Sis, you can trust my driving skills, not for the speed limit signs on the highway, I could easily double the speed," Lin Mu chuckled.
Man Luo gave Lin Mu a resigned look, took out a lady's cigarette, lit it leisurely.
"Tell , are you really from a mysterious national agency?" Man Luo asked, sowhat suspicious. It didn't seem like Lin Mu was lying this ti.
"Of course, I've said it many tis," Lin Mu smiled.
Man Luo shook her head, "I still don't believe you're from a national agency. Man, who would believe it? Soone from a national agency doesn't mix in the underworld, right?"
"Uh... how to say, it's hard to explain. I've said before, although I'm part of a national secret agency, I don't hang around in the agency but go out on missions regularly. However, my official identity is indeed that of a national agent," Lin Mu laughed.
"Leaving that aside, your deanor doesn't fit at all. If you were a thug, I'd believe it more easily. But claiming you're a national agent with a significant position, beat to death and I still wouldn't believe," Man Luo argued.
"It's not up to if you don't believe. This trip is to prove it to you. You'll see when we get there. Soone who hears, no one would believe, even I, didn't fully believe it!" Lin Mu laughed.
"We'll find out soon, hmph!" Man Luo expressed.
"Hey, I think so too," Lin Mu chuckled, "You don't believe , why don't we make a bet, play a little ga?"
Man Luo glanced at Lin Mu, asking, "What ga?"
"Since you don't believe , why don't we place a bet? If you win, you can make a demand of ; if I win, I can make a demand of you. How about that?" Lin Mu grinned.
Man Luo showed so hesitation, but Lin Mu felt he was too clever to miss this golden opportunity. Though Man Luo hesitated, Lin Mu knew her well enough; with a little nudge, she'd surely agree to the bet.
"What, are you lacking confidence?" Lin Mu teased, "If you're not confident, forget it, you'd lose anyway."
Man Luo's character was truly guessed by Lin Mu. Hesitant, she suddenly turned determined, "Who lacks confidence? Let's bet, who's afraid?"
"Hey, that's the Man Luo goddess I know. If you lose, how about agreeing to be my wife?" Lin Mu smiled.
"You..." Man Luo cast a resentful glance at Lin Mu.
Lin Mu shrugged, "I think let's forget it, you're afraid anyway, you'd lose eventually, don't bla for bullying you!"
"Hmph, just a bet, whoever's afraid should die!" Man Luo said fiercely, "Alright, I'll bet with you. If you lose, you'll castrate yourself."
"Gosh... Sis, you're ruthless!" Lin Mu chuckled, not afraid. He knew he wouldn't lose; the bet was a way to further his relationship with Man Luo. Although Man Luo's virginity was already Lin Mu's, her inner acceptance of their relationship was still pending.
