Chapter 21 - 13: No Fight, No Acquaintance

Chapter 21: Chapter 13: No Fight, No AcquaintanceAlthough he wasn’t hit, Lin Mu was really shocked inside. Damn, this girl is violent! She dares to attempt murder on her own husband in broad daylight! And this is in his own home! A dignified king of soldiers being treated as a thief and shot at in his own house. If he accidentally got shot to death, just imagine how ridiculous that would sound! "Hey, stop, stop, fierce woman, let’s make peace!" "Then you stop first!" "Then you stop chasing me..." "You stop first..." "You stop chasing..." ... As the two of them quarreled and ran, they soon became as breathless as an ox. Qi Manlin was too tired to run anymore, her forehead already drenched in sweat as she squatted on the sofa, panting heavily. "I say, aren’t you tired? Can we stop running?" "Tired, yeah, but you’re chasing me, so I have to run!" Lin Mu also wiped the sweat off his face. Just running wasn’t tiring enough, having to dodge bullets was a whole different level of exhausting! "Alright, let’s stop running. Isn’t it just a home burglary? Get caught and stay inside for a year or maybe two at most and you’ll be out. But if you resist arrest again, I might just shoot you to death. You haven’t married a playful wife yet, and you have your aging parents..." Qi Manlin changed her strategy, strengthening her psychological tactics in hopes of achieving victory without fighting. "Damn, what’s this about home burglary?" Lin Mu was bewildered, "I returned to my own home, how does that become home burglary? Is there no justice anymore?" A bright and clear sky! Someone actually occupying his home like this is more arrogant and disgusting than invaders from seventy years ago! Qi Manlin had a keen attention to detail and sensed something off in his words, "What did you say? You returned to your own home, this is your house?" "If it’s not my house, then whose is it?" Lin Mu shouted indignantly from behind the door panel. "Hmph, what evidence do you have to prove this house is yours?" "Nonsense, if it’s not my house, how could I have the front door key? Also, this is the Lin Family house, are you also surnamed Lin?" Qi Manlin heard this and sensed there was indeed a big problem, hesitantly saying, "Is your surname Lin? Show me your ID card!" Lin Mu held the iron door with his left hand to guard against this Wild Girl’s ambush, quickly pulling out his ID with his right hand and tossing it over. Qi Manlin picked up the ID from the ground, glanced at it, and found it very familiar, "Hey, you, turn your face over, let me have a look!" "Why are you looking? You see this handsome guy so charming, dashing, and elegant, so you can’t help but have your heart flutter, is it?" Lin Mu teased as he turned his face over, "Come, take a good look at this handsome guy, but you can only admire me, definitely don’t fall in love with me!"

Qi Manlin suddenly realized this guy was the same rascal who embarrassed her on the train, the very pervert who took her first kiss in the public restroom. "Bastard, I was just worrying about not finding you! And now, you’ve delivered yourself to my doorstep! Humph, you..." She didn’t finish that sentence, but she actually meant, "You even got a good view of me again..." Thinking of this, Qi Manlin was filled with rage, invigorating herself to stand up again, "I’m definitely going to finish you off today..." Lin Mu was quite startled, wasn’t it this fierce woman who proposed a ceasefire agreement earlier? How did things change in the blink of an eye? Oh, a woman’s face is like the weather in June, changing just like that! Before Qi Manlin could chase, Lin Mu turned and ran, leaving the pretty woman far behind once again. Having exhausted much of her strength, Qi Manlin no longer had the courage and energy to challenge him again, secretly cursing him in her heart for taking something, making him run even faster than Wancheng’s top police flower! In fact, Qi Manlin might not know, even the armed police or SWAT members racing against Lin Mu would probably only be left to eat dust! After two laps, the police flower sister couldn’t help but bend over, her pretty face flushed red, panting heavilly, she waved at Lin Mu upstairs, "Stop, stop, no more running, let’s negotiate!" "OK, agreed to negotiate!" Lin Mu stood on the second floor, looking down at the cute police flower in pajamas. He stopped his steps, though he was also nearly exhausted by now, given that he was running with a hundred-pound iron door! "You, stop running, later come with me to the police station, give a statement, we need your testimony to close the train case!" "Um, okay, I agree!" "And also, apologize to me sincerely!" "Why should I?" "You still say that, huh, you bastard, you pervert..." Qi Manlin cursed angrily while chasing after him. "Hmph, you girl, don’t keep your word. Didn’t you just propose a ceasefire agreement?" "Agreement invalidated!" ... Oh my god, the police nowadays have no integrity! Just then, a ringtone came from Lin Mu’s bag on the sofa, "Master, master, idiot calling!" Lin Mu was about to rush down to answer the phone, but paused due to the policewoman’s handgun, standing still without daring to move. Qi Manlin leisurely walked over, picked up the phone, and was startled when she saw the caller ID: Grandson! Ew, this creature looks at most in his twenties, where would such a young guy get a grandson from! "It’s your grandson’s call. Do you want to come down and answer?" Qi Manlin taunted, holding her gun. "I can answer or not, it’s none of your damn business?" Lin Mu retorted stubbornly, a sly smile appearing on his lips. "Fine, since I’m a kind-hearted lady, I’ll answer the great-grandson’s call for your grandson!" Lin Mu couldn’t help but burst into laughter as if waiting for a show to unfold! Qi Manlin held the phone to her ear and impatiently shouted, "Grandson, stop calling. The person you’re looking for is dead!" However, a familiar old voice quickly came through from the other side, "Is that you, Manlin?" "Grandpa Lin?" Qi Manlin was so shocked her jaw almost dropped, and in anger, she made a beheading gesture toward the continuously grinning Lin Mu upstairs! Damn it, this was clearly a setup! The old man is the one who let her live in the house, Elder Lin! Elder Lin was close friends with her grandfather. Qi Manlin moved out due to her dissatisfaction with her parents’ arranged marriage and was fortunate to have Elder Lin find her a beautiful big house! Lin Mu upstairs was laughing so hard he almost fainted. He didn’t mean to harm Qi Manlin. The old man was always harsh with him, and since he couldn’t scold him face-to-face, setting him as a grandson in his phone was just a way to make himself feel better, nothing more. "Grandpa Lin, I’m sorry, I didn’t know it was you..." "Manlin, it’s only been a few days, and you’ve already got such a temper?" Elder Lin said on the other side, "I know it’s that boy Lin Mu’s doing, tell him to come over to the phone!" Qi Manlin had to wave her hand, summoning Lin Mu down, and sternly said, "Pervert, get down here. Grandpa Lin is looking for you," Lin Mu reluctantly put down the iron gate in his hand, boldly leaping down from the upstairs as if it were as easy as flipping a window or jumping off a windowsill. Mind you, it’s several meters high! And the floor below is all tile! Qi Manlin instantly clenched her backside, closing her eyes, thinking he might break his leg? But in the next second, she saw Lin Mu grinning from ear to ear in front of her. "What’s the matter?" Lin Mu snatched his phone from Qi Manlin’s hand, casually responded with a hint of irritation, "You little brat, no sign of you improving, but your temper sure grows fast!" Grandpa Lin fumed on the other side, "Do you want me to help you vent?" Hearing the old man getting angry, Lin Mu quickly donned an innocent smile, "Uh, sorry, old man, just now a silly girl was chasing and hitting me, got really frustrated..." Being called a silly girl by Lin Mu, Qi Manlin immediately got furious, pulling out her gun and pointing it at Lin Mu’s head. Lin Mu quickly put on a pitiful face, raising both hands, feigning innocence, knowing that this girl would actually dare to shoot! The voice on the phone came through, "You little brat, left in haste that day, forgot to tell you, the granddaughter of Elder Qi is also staying in the house. You know Grandpa Qi, right? Don’t start a fight by not recognizing her..." Don’t start a fight? Damn, it’s already started! And I’m almost going to get shot in the head by that silly girl! "Damn it, old man, can’t you give me a little earlier warning about this kind of thing..." "Forget it, not saying anymore. Now giving you a task, protect Manlin for Elder Qi, you know now that bad guys are going to attack your playful wife Sophie, Manlin as a police officer will inevitably get involved, so Manlin will also be in danger too. So no matter what, you have to ensure the safety of Sophie and Manlin. If something happens to either of them, Elder Qi and Elder Su won’t let me off the hook. If I can’t explain to them, I’ll have to send you to Thailand for a sex change operation, and then sell you to the Chief of Congo in Africa as a plaything! Hmph, you know this, I’ve always meant what I said!" The old voice was very serious and strong, not allowing any doubt.
