Chapter 130: Chapter 122: Lin Mu Ambushed"If it gets exposed, it won’t be fun anymore. Besides, the performance this time was completely satisfactory, right? Mom!" Xiong Jian turned back to ask Nanny Xiong. In fact, Nanny Xiong was quite scared, but she pretended to be calm. She had already recovered by now, "Yes, I’m not blaming you, and I have to admit, Xiaoxiao’s choice... is pretty good indeed..." "Indeed, I always believed in Brother Lin!" Lin Mu hurriedly said modestly, "It’s nothing. In such a situation, if it were anyone else, they would also stand up just like me..." "That’s not necessarily true, for example, some people..." Xiong Xiaoxiao glanced disdainfully at Chen Feng, the Eldest Young Master Chen, with a sneer at the corner of her mouth. Standing nearby, Chen Feng heard Xiong Xiaoxiao’s words, and his face turned red. He never imagined this was a play orchestrated by Xiong Jian. If he had known earlier, he would have rushed to be the leading man! "Lin Mu, your aunt was not very nice to you before, you won’t be angry with her, right?" After Lin Mu’s selfless act, Nanny Xiong now found Lin Mu’s dark little face increasingly pleasing to the eye, even his skinny stature started to seem impressive to her. "Auntie, it’s nothing, as long as everyone is fine!" "Good, that’s good!" Nanny Xiong said somewhat awkwardly since her initial attitude towards Lin Mu was indeed a bit too much! Lin Mu, on the other hand, was indifferent. "Come on, it was just a play, right? Xiong Xiaoxiao isn’t his real girlfriend, why does the performance feel more and more convincing?" "Auntie, now that you and Xiaoxiao are fine, I’ll take my leave first!" "Xiaomu, don’t go. Xiaoxiao’s dad should be home by now. I want you two to meet each other!" Hearing this, Chen Feng thought, well, it seems they’re official now, I’m definitely out of the picture. So he stepped forward and said, "Auntie, earlier I..." Chen Feng attempted to explain, but in this situation, mutual understanding was the key, and saying it out loud would inevitably be awkward. Nanny Xiong, ever the wise woman, smiled gently, "Fengzi, there’s no need to say anything. Auntie knows you did nothing wrong, I’m not blaming you..." "Well, you all talk, I’m heading home!" Chen Feng knew full well that staying would only bring more disdainful glances, so it was better to leave and save some face. Lin Mu also wanted to leave, but people wouldn’t let him, so he reluctantly returned to the Xiong family home with Nanny Xiong to meet Mr. Xiong. Then Lin Mu thought, actually meeting Mr. Xiong might not be a bad thing. He, who is a Special Forces King in the world of mercenaries, was like an unknown figure in the complex Wancheng. If he wanted to make a name for himself in Wancheng in the future, how could he succeed without a strong backing? So Lin Mu went back to the Xiong family mansion with them. Xiong Xiaoxiao’s father, Xiong Jian Country, had returned home from the military base. Introduced by Nanny Xiong, Lin Mu quickly stepped forward to greet him with a smile. "Hello, Uncle Xiong!" Lin Mu stood up and greeted. Xiong Jian Country looked at Lin Mu. As a soldier, he had a straightforward nature, and he patted Lin Mu’s shoulder with a smile, "You’re that Lin Mu, right?" Lin Mu nodded, "Uncle Xiong, I’m Lin Mu!" Since he had heard about Lin Mu from Xiong Jian earlier, Xiong Jian Country knew something about him. From his personal perspective, regarding the matter between Lin Mu and Xiong Xiaoxiao, he neither supported nor opposed it. One could say he was an open-minded person. After chatting for a while, they discussed the matter of the arranged marriage between Xiong Xiaoxiao and Chen Feng. Xiong Jian Country said that he had only casually mentioned it at a dinner when talking to Chen Feng’s father, Chen Baoye, but Chen Baoye took it seriously. After that, the Chen Family frequently approached the Xiong Family wanting to finalize the marriage, and Nanny Xiong, for the sake of her husband’s career, was happy to become in-laws with the Chen Family, a family of generals. Thus, Chen Feng’s engagement proposal took place! Lin Mu and Xiong Jian Country chatted for a while, and Nanny Xiong instructed the kitchen to serve the prepared dishes on the table. Then she called the family for dinner, "Honey, Xiaomu, Xiaoxiao, everyone come eat." The daughter found a loyal and righteous ideal husband, which naturally made her mother quite happy. "Got it, Mom." Xiong Xiaoxiao, sitting beside Lin Mu, replied with a laugh, "Dad, Brother Lin, let’s go eat." "Okay, Lin Mu, tonight keep me company for a good drink, we won’t leave until we’re drunk!" Xiong Jian Country got up and called out. Nanny Xiong brought out the Moutai, specially supplied for the military, which left Lin Mu a bit flattered. This liquor is extremely rare, usually reserved for state guests or provincial leaders. It’s hard to find even in the market. Lin Mu had only secretly tasted it a few times at the old man’s place, and when the old man found out, he almost broke his leg. At the dinner table, Lin Mu and Xiong Jian Country chatted delightfully, with mutual admiration as heroes. And Xiong Jian Country’s demeanor as a general made Lin Mu admire him. Naturally, the youthful vigor in Lin Mu was also greatly appreciated by Xiong Jian Country. After dinner, Nanny Xiong peeled some fruit for Lin Mu. Seeing the time, he realized it was late and decided it was time to head home. "Uncle Xiong, Auntie, it’s getting late, so I’ll take my leave now." Lin Mu stood up and said. "Lin Mu, come by more often. It’s been a while since I’ve met someone I get along with so well!" Xiong Jian Country said. Lin Mu nodded, "Okay, no problem, I’ll be leaving now, Uncle Xiong." "Be careful on the road!" Xiong Xiaoxiao waved goodbye to Lin Mu. While she’d been out for a while, Xiong Xiaoxiao missed her parents, so she decided to stay home tonight and not go out. ... seaʀᴄh thё ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. As Lin Mu walked out of the Xiong family, strolling along the tree-lined path, he didn’t expect that a few burly men were waiting for him up ahead. Leading them was a bald man, broad and sturdy, with a strong, robust build. If Liu Yemei were present, she would definitely recognize him as the bald guy who attacked the hotpot restaurant last time, and behind him were some lanzai who followed him. All of them were bare-chested, with shaved heads and tattoos, wearing big gold chains around their necks. These chains seemed more suited for tying up dogs, though they looked just right around the lanzai’s necks now. Behind these men, a handsome guy emerged, it was Chen Feng, the Eldest Young Master Chen, who had been embarrassed earlier by Xiong Jian and Lin Mu. "Eldest Young Master Chen, you’re here!" "Yes, is everyone here?" "Yes, we’re all here!" "Did you bring the stuff?" "We brought it!" Chen Feng slowly took a drag on his cigarette, puffed out a lovely smoke ring, and pulled out a large stack of cash from behind him, "I, the Young Master, always do what I say. The price is just as you wanted, a hundred thousand for each. I’ll pay you now! After it’s done, an additional five hundred thousand to each!"
