Chapter 241: Chapter 232: Hitting Means Affection, Scolding Means Love"Alright then." Qi Manlin could only pout and agree. "Hehe, now Miss Police Flower, can you put that gun down? Looking at that dark barrel of yours, I’m so scared I might pee my pants!" Lin Mu said in a negotiating tone. Qi Manlin glanced at Lin Mu, "Hmph, I’ll let you off this time, but if you dare disrespect me like this again, I’ll just shoot you next time, and see if you still dare to be cocky with me!" "I won’t, I won’t dare to anymore." Lin Mu hurriedly replied. "Hmph, that’s more like it!" Qi Manlin snorted, showing an odd smile, then reached over and pinched Lin Mu’s waist hard. "Oww..." Lin Mu exaggeratedly screamed, wanting to shout it was harassment, but felt it didn’t match his identity as a former soldier king. To fight back? She had a real gun! So, he forced a smile on his face, which looked worse than crying! Qi Manlin still had the gun in her hand, so Lin Mu didn’t dare make any sudden moves. If this wild girl got a rush of blood and fired, at this close range, even his superpower might not work, and he’d get his brains blown out! "Does it feel good?" Qi Manlin teased provocatively. "Heh, it’s alright." Lin Mu squeezed out a smile, "I just remembered I have something to do, so I’ll take my leave now." Lin Mu couldn’t take Qi Manlin’s torture anymore, so after saying that, he quickly jumped out of the car and dashed away. Qi Manlin sat in the car with a smile, put the gun away, finally getting her sweet revenge today, making this beast flee in a panic, it felt so satisfying! Lin Mu escaped from Qi Manlin’s clutches, lit a cigarette, knowing this was just the beginning, there was much more to come, and Han Si Hai would surely go after him, so he’d have to outsmart them. So Lin Mu called Zhou Xun, asked where she was, and they agreed to meet at a café in the city center. Ten minutes later, Lin Mu saw Zhou Xun at the café entrance, and they chatted as they walked inside and sat at a window seat. The café had elegant music playing, Lin Mu ordered two cups of coffee and they chatted as they drank. "Brother Lin, you said you wanted to see me, it’s not just to drink coffee with me, right?" Zhou Xun looked at Lin Mu and said. "Hehe, of course not, I have a big money-making project I want to team up with you on!" Lin Mu said mysteriously. "Hmm? What good thing?" Zhou Xun was puzzled. "Hehe, do you want to become the owner of Kangyu Foot Bath City?" Lin Mu raised an eyebrow. "Hmph, Brother Lin, you’re joking with me again, I’m not talking to you." Zhou Xun pouted, thinking this Sёarᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. beast was teasing her again. "Big star, I’m not joking, I’ll put up the money, you put your name down, you can attend the auction, I guarantee you’ll win the bid, after it’s done, I’ll give you a 30% share." Lin Mu laughed. Zhou Xun seemed confused, clearly not understanding Lin Mu’s meaning, "You want to bid for Kangyu Foot Bath City, can’t you do it yourself? Why do you need me to sign up?" "Hehe, you don’t need to worry about that, just do as I say, you’ll understand eventually. After you win, I’ll give you a 30% share, and by the end of the year, you could get at least 10 million to 50 million in dividends." Lin Mu said. "Huh? Ten million to fifty million?" Zhou Xun’s jaw dropped in surprise, clearly taken aback by what Lin Mu said, she’d never thought in her lifetime she’d earn this much, and Lin Mu was saying that’s just the yearly dividends, it’s unbelievable! "Don’t worry, it’s not just talk, Kangyu Foot Bath City’s location is prime real estate, plenty of money to be made, with our skills, making over a hundred million is no problem!" Lin Mu said confidently. "Then why don’t you just bid yourself, why have me sign up?" Zhou Xun asked puzzled. "Didn’t I say, there’s a reason I’m doing this, but it’s not convenient to tell you now, but trust me, I won’t let you lose out!" Lin Mu patted his chest assuredly. Zhou Xun completely trusted Lin Mu, maybe she was cautious with others, but not with Lin Mu, because he had saved her multiple times, she felt a strong sense of security from him! "Alright, when should I sign up then?" Zhou Xun asked. "Tomorrow afternoon!" Lin Mu thought for a moment and said. The reason Lin Mu asked Zhou Xun to sign up tomorrow afternoon was because it’s the deadline, so others couldn’t tamper with it! If Zhou Xun signed up now, and if Han Si Hai got bored and asked Zhang Liugen for the list, seeing Zhou Xun’s name could ruin everything. Zhou Xun was Lin Mu’s backup plan! "Alright, I’m free tomorrow anyway, I’ll sign up then." Zhou Xun nodded and said. "Hehe, good girl, here, let me reward you with a kiss!" Lin Mu shamelessly puckered up and leaned in. Zhou Xun quickly tried to push him away and stood up from the sofa because she knew, once this beast talked business, he’d soon start acting up! "Brother Lin, you’re so bad, always bullying me!" Zhou Xun pouted angrily. "Hehe, bad boys get the girls! Fortunately, Manlin and Xiaoxiao aren’t back yet, just the two of us, a little intimacy and romance, I’m quite the romantic guy... come on girl, give me a smile..." Lin Mu laughed and lunged at Zhou Xun, who was prepared and quickly dodged, "Brother Lin, you big bad guy, always bullying girls..." "Hmm, beating means fondness, scolding means love, hehe, scold me all you want..." Lin Mu said chasing after her, they laughed and played around, Zhou Xun was already used to Lin Mu’s antics! So even if Lin Mu made some bold moves, Zhou Xun didn’t mind, after all, they’ve been together so long, they understood each other’s personalities. At night, in the Han Family Mansion’s hall in Dongguan East District, the Poisonous Snake Four Brothers walked in from outside, Han Si Hai sat on a nanmu wood chair in the center, slowly exhaled a puff of smoke and asked, "How did everything go?" "Master Si, don’t worry, everything’s settled. We talked to each person on the list, and they all agreed. On the auction day, they’ll only slightly raise the price as a gesture, they won’t compete with us." Jue Qing said. Han Si Hai nodded in satisfaction, took a puff on a big cigar, slowly exhaled a wisp of smoke, "Hmm, very good, things are done well, now it’s just Lin Mu and Chen Shiwei left."
