Of course, Lin Mu wouldn’t harm Qi Shangjing; he just wanted him to do what he could. Even without such a deep relationship, as even ordinary friends, help when needed was a must. In the end, Qi Shangjing was a bit too cautious, or rather, too straightforward!
Nowadays, the hardest official to find is one who is genuinely incorruptible. If soone is so selfless even to their own family, they’d be the sa to outsiders. There’s no hope of doing any backdoor deals with Qi Shangjing, he’s a really good person.
After dinner, Qi Manlin left the Qi Family mansion with Lin Mu. The two didn’t drive over, so they hailed a cab back to the Lin Family Mansion once they left the house. Not far from the house, Qi Manlin had the driver stop and pulled Lin Mu out of the cab!
"Why are we getting off so early when we’re not ho yet?" Lin Mu asked Qi Manlin.
Qi Manlin stretched her hand and let out a sigh of relief, "Anyway, I’m not sleepy. It’s nice to walk a bit here. The night is so cool and gives a relaxing feeling!"
"Alright, it indeed feels nice. A walk would be good!" Lin Mu nodded in agreent.
"Let’s go, we’ll walk back along this path, chat, and relax!" Qi Manlin pointed ahead.
Lin Mu nodded and walked forward chatting with Qi Manlin!
It’s rare for Qi Manlin to be this quiet, and at this mont, Lin Mu felt differently about her. Lin Mu knew that though Qi Manlin put on a strong, fearless facade, she was actually quite fragile inside!
As they walked, Lin Mu couldn’t help but put his arm around Qi Manlin’s shoulder. Qi Manlin looked at Lin Mu and did not resist. In the past, she would have cursed and given him a good beating, but today, Qi Manlin was like a little woman, gently leaning against Lin Mu’s shoulder as they walked!
"Brother Lin, thank you for helping deal with the Liu Family young master. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t know how long I’d be troubled by this!"
On the tree-lined path, Qi Manlin leaned on Lin Mu’s shoulder like a young couple.
"Oh, what are you thanking for? We’re like family. With a beautiful girl like you, who else but could match you, right?" Lin Mu grinned.
"You’re so full of yourself! With your caliber, even ten of you wouldn’t match up to !" Qi Manlin laughed and gave Lin Mu a playful hit.
"No way? I’m a high, rich, and handso man now. Didn’t you see? Both your mom and dad are pleased with , they agreed. Can I not pass your test?" Lin Mu playfully slapped Qi Manlin’s butt.
"Hmph, you wish. Forget about passing my test, try passing my cousin’s first." Qi Manlin casually ntioned a long-pondered but very real issue.
Sophie is Qi Manlin’s close friend and a cousin. Su Jinzhi is part of the Su family, and there’s discord with them. There seems to be a lot entangled between them, enough to keep Lin Mu busy!
There was an implication in what Qi Manlin said, unintentionally giving Lin Mu a hint that it wasn’t her who had issues with him, but external factors!
Lin Mu never thought about how to reconcile the relationships between these won. In his mind, he wanted all these beautiful girls to be his own. He couldn’t stand the idea of soone else having them!
"Oh, why bother with her test? I’ll take all of you. I’ll be like Wei Xiaobao, haha!" Lin Mu stopped and grinned, giving a cleverly cheeky answer!
Because Lin Mu really didn’t know how to answer seriously. Once Qi Manlin brought up the topic, Lin Mu imdiately realized that dealing with feelings is the hardest thing to resolve!
For Lin Mu, the best way to deal with unsolvable issues is undoubtedly ti. When the ti cos, everything will naturally resolve. However, Lin Mu knew there was no need to worry now. Who knows what the future holds? Maybe the girls will love him so much they wouldn’t mind sharing. But then again, these are all just his daydreams, imagining himself as a prince on a white horse, but in reality, others see him just as a Tang Monk on a white horse.
Think about it, how many beauties in the world would want to share their husband? Qi Manlin smiled at Lin Mu, not seeming to care much, "Dream on. With your behavior, even if you beg on your knees, I might not even tell you I like you!"
"Hmph, I won’t argue with you. Going ho to sleep!" Qi Manlin glanced at Lin Mu and snorted, heading towards the house. Lin Mu chuckled and followed Qi Manlin back inside.
