Chapter 1276: Chapter 1291: Return to Huaxia
"Alright, let’s go. I’ve already notified the airport, told them to wait an extra hour for me. It’s about time now anyway." Lin Mu said. If it weren’t for the time crunch, he’d still be messing around and having fun with that idiot Kikyo! Turns out those anti‑Japanese dramas aren’t totally off—at least one thing is spot on: the plot is always so damn satisfying! You could say this wave was also him venting some anger for all the Huaxia People who used to get bullied by Easterners!
They walked out of the interrogation room, and a bunch of cops were still standing outside. But when they saw the three of them come out, not a single one dared open his mouth. They’d heard the screams from inside just now, but they also knew exactly what they were capable of. Lin Mu’s Magic wasn’t something these little beat cops could afford to provoke, so they didn’t even dare fart. All they could do was watch as the three of them swaggered off in style!
Lin Mu took Caini and Guo Meimei out of the police station; the three of them grabbed a cab to the airport. They got there quickly, and Lin Mu headed to security. The security officer was still there, and he was still looking after their luggage.
Seeing the three of them come back safe and sound, the security officer’s heart instantly gained another layer of admiration! Huaxia People really are badass! Hauled off by the police and they still walk back out without a scratch—how powerful do you have to be to pull that off!
At the same time, the security officer secretly rejoiced. Good thing he’d never dared offend this Huaxia guy, or he wouldn’t even know how he died.
"Sir, you’re back." The security officer greeted Lin Mu very politely.
"Mm, we’re not late, right?" Lin Mu replied.
"Not late. Here’s your luggage—you can board and take off anytime." the security officer said.
"Mm, thanks." Lin Mu gave a polite smile, the corner of his mouth hooking up in a cocky arc. The security officer was stunned. This guy didn’t seem at all like that vicious maniac who’d been beating people up everywhere just now?
Staring at Lin Mu’s receding back, the security officer couldn’t help scratching the back of his head in confusion. "Did his twin brother show up or something? Why does he feel different?"
And so Lin Mu, Guo Meimei, and Caini finally boarded the plane back to Huaxia. Of course, the plane wasn’t heading to the Mainland, but to Xiang Island, because Lin Mu had to go find Man Luo. To be honest, he was really worried sick about whether Man Luo was alive or dead—he was practically going gray from anxiety.
By the time the three of them—Lin Mu, Caini, and Guo Meimei—got off the plane, it was already night. The plane landed in the Xiang Island Special Administrative Region. You had to admit, the night on Xiang Island was very, very beautiful—utterly intoxicating. It’s just that none of them were in the mood to enjoy the scenery right now. After leaving the airport, they hailed a taxi and went straight to the largest hospital on Xiang Island.
Before this, Lin Mu had already gotten in touch with the jewelry tycoon from Zhou Liufu Company, Zhou Runze. When it came to tracking down Man Luo, Zhou Runze could definitely be said to have rendered outstanding service.
Everything went back to that phone call Lin Mu had made to the wild police beauty Qi Manlin. After hearing from Lin Mu that Man Luo might still be alive, the Chief Police Officer immediately contacted the Xiang Island police, who then put out a missing person notice. All the ports, docks, and even the streets and alleys were plastered with large photos of Man Luo.
By coincidence, a dock worker discovered the injured Man Luo—and the dock he worked at happened to belong to Zhou Liufu Company’s boss, Zhou Runze. As soon as Zhou Runze heard about it, he immediately reported it to the Xiang Island police. And when he learned that this woman had close ties to Lin Mu of Wancheng’s Flying Dragon Sect, Zhou Runze instantly ordered people to send Man Luo to the best hospital on Xiang Island. Because by the time that worker found her, Man Luo was already unconscious, and she’d even taken a bullet. In short, the fact that Man Luo could be saved this time was thanks in no small part to Zhou Runze.
Once he left the airport, Lin Mu contacted Zhou Runze, and ten minutes later, Zhou Runze personally came by car to pick him up.
"Hehe, Boss Lin, long time no see." After getting out of the car, Zhou Runze greeted Lin Mu with a big grin.
"Brother Zhou, you’re too polite. I’m younger than you—just call me little brother." Lin Mu’s attitude toward Zhou Runze was very courteous. After all, it was Zhou Runze who had saved Man Luo; to Lin Mu, that was absolutely a huge favor.
"Alright then, I’ll call you little brother from now on." Zhou Runze said with a hearty laugh.
"Brother Zhou, I really have to thank you for what you did this time. From the bottom of my heart." Lin Mu said sincerely. freewebnσvel.cѳm
"Little brother, you just told me not to be so polite, and now you’re being polite with me." Zhou Runze chuckled.
"Alright then, I won’t stand on ceremony with you, big bro. Big bro, I’ll have to trouble you to take me to the hospital." Lin Mu said with a smile.
"Sure, no problem. Get in the car. She doesn’t know you’re here yet." Zhou Runze said with a smile.
Very soon, they all got in the car and drove to the hospital. They arrived at the inpatient department, and under Zhou Runze’s lead, headed toward the special ward area. He’d arranged a deluxe room for Man Luo.
As they reached the corridor, Lin Mu’s heart was actually pretty stirred up. He was finally going to see Man Luo. This girl had really given him a hell of a lot to worry about!
"This is it." Zhou Runze said.
"Mm, let’s go in together." Lin Mu nodded.
, Zhou Runze pushed the door open and walked in, but the ward was empty.
"Maybe she stepped out." Zhou Runze said.
"Mm, let’s wait here then." Lin Mu nodded.
Just then, a woman in a hospital gown walked in from outside. She stopped in the doorway, not moving, her eyes shimmering with tears. Lin Mu turned his head and looked at the woman at the door; his heart was full of indescribable feelings.
"Man Luo, you’re back. I was going to give you a surprise—you see who’s here." Zhou Runze said with a cheerful smile.
Man Luo stood in the doorway, looking at Lin Mu without saying a word. At this point, Zhou Runze felt the scene was no longer suitable for him to hang around as a third wheel.
"Oh, I’ll let you two talk." Zhou Runze smiled, then walked out of the ward.
Caini and Guo Meimei exchanged a glance and also followed Zhou Runze out of the room. Man Luo slowly walked in, and Zhou Runze casually pulled the door closed behind him.
Man Luo stood where she was, looking at Lin Mu, not saying a word. Then she stepped forward and wrapped her arms around him. Lin Mu also reached out and put his arms around her slender waist, holding her tightly. "Girl, it’s my fault. I let you suffer."
Man Luo still clung tightly to Lin Mu, not saying anything. She probably couldn’t get any words out at this point.
Right now, what Lin Mu felt was that Man Luo seemed much more fragile than before. Of course, not that kind of fragile, but the kind a woman is supposed to have. Think about it—before, Man Luo had been so overbearing, so cold, almost like she didn’t have any feelings at all. But now she seemed more like some sentimental, love‑struck maiden from a novel!
Gradually, Lin Mu heard Man Luo sobbing, and his shoulder was already wet. He didn’t say anything, just gently held her. Some tears are meant to be shed; it’s much better to let them out than to bottle them up inside.
