The Super Bodyguard of the Beautiful CEO-Chapter 219 - 210: As the Bait

"I’m heading towards the downtown area now. There are a lot of people in the city, they won’t dare to act rashly. There’s a western restaurant not far ahead, it’s also crowded, why don’t I wait for you there?" Qi Manlin said on the phone.

"Alright, be careful, I’m coming right over."

Lin Mu responded and hung up the phone.

"Brother Lin, what’s going on?" Zhou Xun heard something off in Lin Mu’s tone of voice.

"The young police officer is being tailed, I need to go pick him up. You guys stay home, don’t go out unless necessary."

Lin Mu got up, threw on a jacket and quickly headed out, jumping into that flashy Bugatti Vides, and started off towards the city’s western restaurant.

Lin Mu hit two hundred kilometers per hour as soon as he got in the car, ran through seven or eight red lights, anyway Su’s Great Enterprise had already paid traffic violation fees for a hundred years in advance; no cop with eyes would dare meddle even if he drove sideways down the street!

Ten minutes later, Lin Mu arrived at the entrance of the western restaurant, with a police car parked nearby. Lin Mu recognized the license plate and knew Qi Manlin had already entered the restaurant, indicating she was relatively safe, which let Lin Mu breathe a sigh of relief.

Lin Mu got out of the car and walked into the restaurant. Seeing Lin Mu enter, Qi Manlin finally let out a sigh of relief. She felt a strong sense of security with Lin Mu, this expert beast; when they first met on the train, he had rescued Su Xiaowan under the gun’s muzzle.

Later, when she fell into the hands of the Zombie Gang, it was also Lin Mu who stood up to save her, his courage and skills left her deeply impressed.

Even though she usually found Lin Mu displeasing to the eye, in times of danger, this beast seemed pleasing from every angle!

"Hehe, are you okay, young police flower?" Lin Mu smirked as he sat across from Qi Manlin.

"You’re still laughing? Look at the state I’m in, how can you still laugh, you beast? Are you hoping something happens to me?"

Seeing Lin Mu’s annoying, mischievous smile, Qi Manlin didn’t know why but felt an unreasonable urge to get angry. This guy simply didn’t deserve a smile from her!

But Lin Mu’s attitude couldn’t be blamed, as he had really seen too much during his time on the African battlefields, where life-and-death situations were a dime a dozen. This little matter was not worth mentioning; only someone like Qi Manlin, who grew up sheltered under red flags and in a greenhouse, would make a fuss over it!

Patting his chest with confidence, Lin Mu said, "Hehe, don’t worry, young police flower. Aren’t they just a few dogs that like to bite? I’ll handle them in a few minutes. As long as I’m here, rest assured, I guarantee they won’t dare touch a hair on you..."

"What hair..."

Qi Manlin’s eyes widened with anger; this beast really couldn’t say anything decent.

"Oh, sorry, sorry..." Lin Mu hurriedly apologized, "I didn’t mean that, I meant they won’t be able to harm even a hair..."

"You keep talking..."

Qi Manlin almost lost her mind; this beast was simply incomprehensible.

"Uh, well, I misspoke, I’ll slap myself, will that do?"

Lin Mu pretended to slap himself a few times, finally calming Qi Manlin down.

"Rest assured, you have to believe in my skills; no matter who the opponent is, I can protect you without any harm!"

Though Lin Mu’s words sounded a bit conceited, Qi Manlin still found them reliable, as Lin Mu had always helped her in times of trouble, never letting her get hurt.

"Stop laughing and joking, I’m almost dying here, and you still have the mood to joke." Qi Manlin said with a serious face.

"Where is that pack of dogs?" Lin Mu asked with a smile.

"They’re outside, they didn’t come in, they probably think I’m in here eating!" Qi Manlin replied.

"Oh, that’s how it is. Could you tell which car is theirs?" Lin Mu asked.

"I know, I specifically looked at their car when I got out; it’s that black Jinbei parked by the roadside," Qi Manlin said.

Lin Mu looked outside through the window, nodded, and said, "I see it. Alright, you drive away now, head to a less populated place, it’d be best to give them a chance to grab you."

"You? Bastard, what do you mean by that? Are you just waiting for me to get into trouble?" Qi Manlin cursed angrily upon hearing that.

"Uh... young police flower, how could I bear having something happen to you? What I meant was to use a long line to catch a big fish..."

Lin Mu grinned as he moved closer and whispered a few words to Qi Manlin.

Qi Manlin’s initially angry expression slowly eased up after hearing that. She grabbed Lin Mu’s hand hard and scolded playfully, "You bastard, so you’re using me as bait?"

"Hehe, without risking the kid, you can’t catch the wolf; dealing with those little minions is useless, the important thing is to lure out the big boss behind them. As the saying goes, remove the weeds, get rid of the roots!" said Lin Mu with a playful smirk.

"Alright, I’ll be your bait this time. Remember to treat me to a meal afterwards," Qi Manlin said.

"Uh... young police flower, it seems like I’m handling this case for you, so you should be the one treating me to a meal!" Lin Mu said speechlessly.

"I don’t care, when I say you’ll treat me to a meal, you will, no more excuses!" Qi Manlin said unreasonably.

Lin Mu was stumped. One moment she was a high-ranking police officer, the next she transformed into a stubborn little woman. "Alright, I admit defeat, you win!"

Then Lin Mu silently recalled a philosophical saying, "Trying to reason with a woman is harder than drowning a fish in water!"

"Hmph, that’s more like it. I’ll head out first, you’d better follow closely, don’t let your guard down, and if anything happens to me, I’ll haunt you even as a ghost!" Qi Manlin said, making a fierce face.

"Hehe, got it, rest assured, you can count on me!" Lin Mu replied with a smile.

So, Qi Manlin walked out of the restaurant, with Lin Mu following suit. Qi Manlin got in her car and drove onto the highway, while the Jinbei parked on the roadside also started up and followed behind Qi Manlin. freewёbnoνel.com

Lin Mu dared not hesitate, quickly getting into his car, following the Jinbei. Qi Manlin’s car was in front, moving slowly towards a less populated road, and soon reached no man’s land. There were almost no vehicles on the road, with darkness on both sides and only dim, yellow streetlights illuminating the way.

If those guys in the Jinbei wanted to make a move, this would undoubtedly be the best opportunity! Sure enough, suddenly the Jinbei sped up, rushing towards Qi Manlin’s car, quickly catching up and then continuously bumping it. Qi Manlin slammed on the brakes, bringing the car to a stop.

The people in the Jinbei saw Qi Manlin stop and also halted, some shirtless tattooed thugs wearing thick gold chains around their necks got out, angrily surrounding Qi Manlin.
