Chapter 1582: Chapter 1597: Likes Blockbusters

Silver saddle on a white horse, rushing like a meteor, killing a man every ten steps, leaving no trace over a thousand miles. Lin Mu hasn’t killed anyone, but his actions have left many sleepless nights. Lei Xiaojiao was taken back to the police station for an all-night interrogation, and the police launched a massive operation, searching hotels and checking suspicious figures across the city. It’s important to know that Huzi was the sole survivor of the drug case; his death has completely severed the clues. Not only did Liu Genyou smash three cups in rage, but even the Dongguang Public Security Bureau chief expressed great concern over this incident.

There’s no choice; this new drug is truly terrifying. If it continues to flow into the market, within three years, the Huaxia People might all become the sick men of East Asia...

Yayuan Manor!

Rumbling! Thunder stretched on, blinding white lightning occasionally brightening the sky.

Sophie suddenly sat up from her bed, her stunning face pale. It’s a feeling of irritation, sensitivity, and fear, difficult to explain, seemingly rooted deep in the soul.

"How can this be?" Looking at the lightning and pouring rain outside the window, Sophie shrank back and murmured in fear.

She clearly remembered the first time she had this feeling was at age six, that same stormy night. The memory of that night is hazy; all Sophie knows is that when she got up at dawn, her small white hand was covered with some dog fur, and the Tibetan mastiff raised by her grandfather was somehow attacked by some creature, its strong body torn apart, with viscera all over the ground.

Later, this feeling reappeared twice, and each time it appeared, unusual things happened at home, until she was ten years old when her grandfather took her to Liuyun Water Pavilion in Wancheng. From then on, the feeling disappeared, but unexpectedly, it has reappeared after many years.

Sophie took a deep breath, suppressed her panic, and walked out of the room.

"If I don’t sleep, maybe it won’t happen."

Talking to herself, she opened the refrigerator, reached in, and took out two cans of Sprite. Sophie had made up her mind, she wouldn’t sleep tonight, she’d just watch TV all night.

Just then, a voice sounded: "Hey, what are you muttering to yourself about?"

"Ah!" Sophie was startled, suddenly turned around, her speed so fast that it left a blur in the air. Perhaps due to the shock, her fingers tightened, and she accidentally broke the cans open.

"Whoa!" Lin Mu dodged the spraying liquid with a sidestep, looking surprised: "What’s the matter with you?"

"Lin Mu!" Once she saw who it was, Sophie was relieved, "You scared me, why is it you?"

"Who else could it be, unless you’ve kept a pretty boy in the villa?" Lin Mu laughed.

Actually, Lin Mu was in the hospital originally, because Liu Genyou received news and returned to the Public Security Bureau, leaving only Zhang Man, a woman, inside. Naturally, it was inconvenient for Lin Mu, a young guy, to stay, so he left with Liu Genyou. After splitting up, he treated his wounds and thought about spending the night in the clinic. But considering he is Sophie’s bodyguard, running around all day without saying a word was already inappropriate, and he feared something might happen if he stayed out all night. So, with a strong sense of responsibility, Lin Mu drove back to Yayuan Manor overnight.

Besides, after running around all day, he was starving, and he thought about finding some food in the dining room, unexpectedly running into Sophie.

"Would it kill you to stop being mouthy?"

Sophie turned and took out two more cans of drink, walking slowly toward the living room, grumbling: "Clean up here and come back to report in, huh, you’re getting more capable, even attracting police attention."

"I’m a bodyguard, not a cleaner. Let Nanny Wang handle this."

"Nanny Wang isn’t here."

"..." Ten minutes later, Lin Mu, with a face of deep resentment, sighed and said, "That’s how it is, whether you believe it or not, I believe it."

"Lin Mu, I realize you have a huge advantage, which is being thick-skinned, and not just generally thick, but super thick! Thick enough to be beyond comprehension and breathtaking."

Sophie curled her lip, not hiding her disdain: "That female cop, I also saw her. She’s pretty and has a top-tier figure. Such a goddess, who knows how many rich, handsome men are chasing her. Yet you say she fell in love at first sight, unable to woo, turned hateful and retaliated against you... Lin Mu, do you think I’m brainless?"

"Damn, what do you mean?"

"I mean, before bragging, why don’t you look in the mirror first?"

Sophie stifled a yawn, rolled her eyes and muttered: "Looking so sleazy and having such a lousy temperament, you’re like a pile of cow dung, would such a beautiful girl throw herself at you? Stop dreaming, okay!"

"I, I can’t be bothered with you." Lin Mu, face bruised, got up intending to go back to his room to sleep.

"Hey, don’t leave, watch a movie with me." Seeing this, Sophie hurriedly spoke up.

She didn’t want to be alone in the large living room waiting for daylight.

"No interest." Lin Mu curled his lips. Gentle when asking for favors, kicking him aside with disdain afterward, does she really think he’s easy to bully? Hmph! This time he wouldn’t bend to her will no matter what.

"Really no interest? Heard the new action movie is really good."

Sophie kicked off her slippers, leaned sideways on the sofa; whether intentional or not, the strap of her nightgown slipped off her shoulder. Seeing this, Lin Mu’s spirit, as resolute as a revolutionary martyr’s, naturally crumbled.
