Chapter 87: Chapter 79: A LifetimeBut just when he got to the doorstep, Lin Mu suddenly sensed a thread of danger swiftly approaching. Out of the darkness, a shadow darted out, charging at him like lightning. With such speed, an average person would never dodge it in time, but Lin Mu was no ordinary person; he was a Special Forces King with an extraordinary sensing ability! However, the opponent’s speed and technique were certainly not ordinary, almost matching his own. Who could this master be? Could it be the Corpse Emperor acting personally? The person wore a ghost mask, leaving his true identity unclear. Lin Mu didn’t have time to think, his body swayed, deftly avoiding the opponent’s lightning strike! "Who are you?" Lin Mu barked, "Why are you ambushing me?" "Hmph, just take my hit first!" The person did not answer, continuing with fierce attacks on Lin Mu. "Despicable coward, only knows how to ambush!" Lin Mu got angry, clenched his fists, thinking, You rude little punk, I’ll teach you a lesson on behalf of your father! Their fists collided with a bang, causing a strong shockwave. For the first time, Lin Mu felt such powerful inner strength, "Who the hell are you? Have the guts to take off the mask, don’t hide like a coward!" "Haha, who I am is not important to you. What matters is I want you to know Zhou Xun is my woman. But now that you’re protecting her, I’m relieved. Don’t let her down, or I’ll be harsh on you!" "Oh?" Lin Mu was startled. What kind of background does this Zhou Xun have to have such a powerful relative? S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Before Lin Mu could inquire further, the masked man leaped over the wall with a swish, his agility surpassing any parkour expert. Worried about the safety of the other three girls inside, Lin Mu didn’t dare to give chase and reluctantly returned to the yard. To know someone related to Zhou Xun, it looks like I’ll have to ask her personally! Lin Mu hurriedly ran upstairs to find that the rooms of the three girls were quiet. He opened the door slightly to peek inside; there were no signs of disturbance, seemingly all safe. If anyone were assaulted, or violated, they would be likely screaming, or laying dead inside. The place would be a mess for sure! Hesitating as he was about to open Zhou Xun’s door to inquire and reassure her, unexpectedly the door opened on its own, Zhou Xun stood at the door rubbing her sleepy eyes. Lin Mu quickly pretended nothing happened, acting as if he was just passing by, but Miss Zhou called him out, "Brother Lin, just now, I heard sounds of a fight, didn’t you hear it?" "Yes, super star, actually it was me!" Lin Mu candidly said, "Just now I found someone broke in here, and I fought with him!" "Are you okay, Brother Lin?" Zhou Xun asked with concern, her rosy face appeared even more alluring under the dim light. "No need to worry about me, I’m fine!" Lin Mu said, "By the way, that person seemed to be looking for you, do you know anyone outside with a big background?" "No, no," Zhou Xun answered assuredly, "I’m an orphan, grew up in the orphanage, I haven’t even seen my parents, let alone other relatives!" "What? You’re an orphan?" Lin Mu looked at Zhou Xun in amazement, this girl is incredible. Despite her fragile appearance, she managed to complete her university studies. Compared with those pampered rich kids, her life’s hardships are not what ordinary people can endure! "All these years, have you been on your own?" "Yes," Zhou Xun nodded, "I spent my elementary school years in the orphanage. In middle school, I started working part-time at a restaurant near the school while studying, receiving some social welfare, and that’s how I managed to finish high school and university, up to now..." Sigh, what a tough and resilient girl! Lin Mu couldn’t help but feel a growing respect and admiration. From middle school to university, nearly a ten-year span, for a frail girl, the hardships and difficulties must be unimaginable, naturally invoking deep respect! "Are you very tired?" Lin Mu lovingly watched her pretty face, comforting her with the tone of an older brother next door, "I’m so tired... sobbing..." Sometimes people don’t seem that strong, but they can’t find any reliable support. Now Lin Mu offered a warm shoulder for her to lean on, Zhou Xun couldn’t hold back the long-suppressed grievances and bitterness anymore. Like a flood breaking through a dam, her tears flowed like a spring fountain. All these years, except for this Brother Lin, no one ever cared about how much hardship she went through! How much disdain and scorn she had to endure from peers! Zhou Xun cried on Lin Mu’s shoulder, seemingly wanting to vent all the grievances and bitterness she had stored up, feeling for the first time the family affection and love she had never dared to dream. Now, they were finally inside Brother Lin’s warm embrace. All these years, only this Brother Lin gave her care and a sense of security. From now on, she needn’t fear being bullied or live humbly. In that instant, Zhou Xun suddenly had an illusion that she had met Brother Lin long ago, as if it was a promise from a previous life. Yes, this Brother Lin, no, this man, is her only support in this life... Lin Mu also held this gentle yet strong girl tenderly, suddenly feeling a surge of impulse deep inside. He wanted to care for her for life, protect her. Such a pure and kind girl, life had owed her too much happiness, and she shouldn’t endure any more suffering from now on! "Lin... Brother, would you... take care of me? Always... just like this... would you?" Zhou Xun nestled deeply in Lin Mu’s chest, allowing him to feel those two passionate flames against his chest. "I will..." Lin Mu caressed her exquisite waist, a wonderful feeling of comfort flooded his heart. If only those thin pieces of clothing between them disappeared, embracing her would surely bring ecstasy like never before! "What I want is... for a lifetime... can you?" "Yes, for a lifetime!" Lin Mu affirmed. Hearing Lin Mu’s promise firsthand, Zhou Xun straightened up from his embrace, her tear-filled glistening eyes stared at Lin Mu sparklingly, "Brother Lin..." Lin Mu’s heart swelled with warmth, and he returned Zhou Xun’s gaze with a fiery passion, "Xun’Er... we..."
