Chapter 1596 - 1610: Beating Up

Chapter 1596: Chapter 1610: Beating Up

"No, when I got there, he was already dead. The ones who did it were those two..."

At this point, Lin Mu suddenly stopped talking, a flash of regret showing in his eyes.

There was an inevitable link between the two things, and his slip-up this time was undoubtedly a confession, completely exposing his identity. Sure enough, when Lin Mu looked up, he saw Lei Xiaojiao’s knowing expression.

"I knew it, that person is you."

"Beauty is deceitful! Truly, the prettier the woman, the easier she sets traps for others."

Lin Mu sighed helplessly and said, "What do you plan to do, arrest me?"

"I..." Lei Xiaojiao was initially feeling a little triumphant, but upon hearing this, she was suddenly stunned.

Sometimes, ignorance is bliss, knowing the truth isn’t necessarily a good thing. Like Lei Xiaojiao, her mind was instantly torn in an internal conflict—on one hand, she was a police officer, tasked with upholding justice, but on the other hand, she was a woman. Throughout history, how many women have truly been able to ruthlessly push their loved ones off a cliff? Lei Xiaojiao didn’t know if she was in love with Lin Mu; she only knew she couldn’t bear it, nor could she bring herself to act like a law-enforcing cop.

"I don’t know!"

Lei Xiaojiao’s reaction was both within Lin Mu’s expectations and yet beyond his imagination.

The two fell into an awkward silence, but fortunately, Zhu Xiaoli returned, with a waiter behind her carrying a large tray of drinks. "Mr. Lin, we agreed that we won’t leave unless we’re drunk, so we must have fun tonight."

"Sure, I’ll go to the restroom first, and when I return, we’ll have a good drink."

If you can’t figure it out, then don’t think about it. Lin Mu temporarily set aside his inner conflict, got up, and left the private room.

Despite the grand name of the Supreme International Club, it was actually an old venue, with average decor and prices, making it suitable for the masses. Lin Mu turned a corner and was about to enter the restroom when the private room door beside him suddenly opened. A flustered girl dashed out without watching the road, crashing into his arms. Almost simultaneously, two youths with cigarettes in their mouths and bare-chested chased out. Seeing Lin Mu, they paused but quickly resorted to yelling at the girl: "Damn it, dare to steal from Master Lu, if you don’t come back with me, I’ll break your damn leg!"

"You’re lying, I didn’t steal anything from him."

The girl shivered and cried for help, finally raising her head, pitifully saying, "Uncle, save me. They want to rape me."

"It’s you!" Lin Mu took a closer look and burst into laughter. It’s true destiny to meet across a thousand miles—the little beauty asking for help was none other than Huang Mao, the girl who tried to blackmail him outside Yayuan Manor a few days ago. Apparently, her name was Liu A Zhen.

"Wh-why is it you."

Liu A Zhen clearly recognized Lin Mu as well. After all, those five hundred push-ups were unforgettable; despite Liu A Zhen’s decent physical condition, her arms were swollen when she returned home that day, leaving her unable to work for several days, enduring pain that made life unbearable. Even sleeping, she didn’t dare turn over casually! It was all because of this demon standing before her, such a harrowing experience—how could she forget it?

"Kid, move along and mind your business."

Seeing the girl and Lin Mu seem acquainted, a Lanzai raised an eyebrow, spat out his cigarette butt, and menaced.

"Ha, I heard your sister’s place is quite cool, can I go?" Lin Mu pulled the girl to his side and sneered.

"What do you mean?" Lanzai frowned.

His companion hurriedly said, "Bro, he means he wants to sleep with your sister!"

"Damn, tired of living, knock him down." Lanzai’s face turned angry, furious, he raised his foot and kicked towards Lin Mu, bang! A muffled sound resounded, and in Liu A Zhen’s astonished gaze, Lanzai’s body flew directly backward, sliding seven or eight meters through the air before hitting the ground.

"Wow, how much strength is this?"

Liu A Zhen glanced at Lin Mu’s thin frame, swallowing hard.

Seeing things were going south, the other Lanzai turned to run toward the private room, seemingly to call for reinforcements. Unfortunately, he barely took two steps before feeling an intolerable pain in his neck, and his feet suddenly left the ground; it turned out Lin Mu had lifted him up single-handedly.

"Still dare to knock me down?"

With one foot, Lin Mu kicked open the private room door, and with a swing of his arm, tossed Lanzai to the ground. At this moment, he could see the situation clearly inside. Smoke filled the private room, and the two little kids who previously tried to scam him with Liu A Zhen were kneeling on the ground, clutching the back of their heads, their noses bruised. On the huge circular sofa, seven men were bare-chested, their faces flushed with drink, the oldest looking about forty, and the youngest around seventeen or eighteen. Among these people, a guy with a dog-like face and a short stature was holding a microphone, desperately crying out in a screech, and upon hearing his singing, Lin Mu suddenly felt a strange surge of confidence in his own singing ability.

"Master Lu, this guy’s causing trouble!"

The severely beaten Lanzai scrambled to his feet and rejoined the crowd.

The room fell silent, Master Lu stopped his singing, glanced at Lin Mu, then at Liu A Zhen, sneering: "Are you sticking up for this little whore?"

"Hell, your mother is the whore, damn bastard!"

With Lin Mu beside her, Liu A Zhen’s arrogance skyrocketed. As soon as she spoke, the Lanzais all changed color. Yet, Lin Mu couldn’t help but smirk; this girl indeed bore a certain resemblance to Ling Xiaoqiao, perhaps that’s why he couldn’t resist meddling.

"Heh, little whore’s quite bold. Do you think this pretty boy can really protect you?" Master Lu grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth that was utterly repulsive. "Brothers, smash the pretty boy’s kneecaps, drag the whore over here, we’ll take turns..."

"Ah Zhen, go quickly!" "There are too many of them; go call the cops first."

The two little kids had a sense of loyalty; seeing many Lanzais approaching, they stood up hurriedly, shielding Lin Mu and Liu A Zhen. However, since Lin Mu had come, he couldn’t let them snatch away his main character spotlight frivolously, grabbing their shoulders and pushing them aside, Lin Mu coldly laughed as he stepped forward.

In an instant, fists flew, and bottles soared! Amidst the two kids’ shocked expressions, Lin Mu was like a tiger amid wolves, only the sounds of wailing and crying echoed. The chaotic dance tempo from earlier suddenly shifted, and Master Lu’s gang of Lanzais, who operated with great flair in East City, were now strewn about as knocked-out stragglers.

Especially their leader, Master Lu, who Lin Mu kicked into a glass fish tank. Fatty Lu’s incredibly voluptuous figure was immediately covered in bleeding glass shards, utterly miserable and bloody, looking as if he’d been brutally violated for a dozen rounds—a scene too pathetic and pitiful to behold!
