"Uh..." Lin Mu could only shake his head helplessly. This girl is too naive, simply hopeless.
"Please, promise me!" Meng Wei’Er shook Lin Mu’s hand, acting spoiled.
"Sis, didn’t you call me just a countrified and old-fashioned bodyguard when we first met? Now you’ve done a complete 180 and are clinging to me?" Lin Mu was quite helpless.
"Well, men, you know, looks aren’t important, and money is secondary. Honestly, among the boys chasing me these past two years, a bunch are better-looking and richer, but I just think you’re the best. You’re interesting, funny, you have charming charisma, so I’ve fallen for you!" Meng Wei’Er said with her lips pouting.
Hearing Meng Wei’Er’s words, Lin Mu suddenly felt like he could soar to the heavens and the earth. He had to admit, his charisma is quite considerable!
"But sis, I already have a girlfriend, so..." Lin Mu tried to let Meng Wei’Er down gently.
"No problem, I can accept you having a wife. I can even, even be your mistress, as long as I like you and you like me, that’s enough!" Meng Wei’Er said passionately.
"Uh..." Lin Mu sighed internally, "If all the girls in the world thought like you, wouldn’t that be great! Then I could have a different woman every day until I drop dead from pleasure!"
"Sis, I think you should forget it. I have a heavy taste; I like women with big chests and feminine charm. You’re only seventeen and flat as a board. Wait until you’ve matured more before we talk." Lin Mu added, needing an excuse to refuse.
As expected, Meng Wei’Er, a 90s non-mainstream girl, stood boldly and said with her chest puffed out,
A girl throwing herself at him was rare, and Lin Mu honestly didn’t want to refuse, but Meng Wei’Er was too young. Even though she was developing well, it would seem more appropriate if she were a few years older.
"Sis, how about this: you still need to go to school. Finish your studies first, and then I’ll agree, alright? Even if you agree now, your parents wouldn’t allow it, right? But if you finish school properly, your parents will see you’re mature and responsible, and they won’t stop us. Then we can be together forever." Lin Mu said with a grin.
Meng Wei’Er pouted, blinking her eyes while considering Lin Mu’s words. It seemed right. She needed to study anyway, and even if Lin Mu agreed, he was in a different place. Her parents wouldn’t let her drop out. So, it was better to focus on her studies and get to know Lin Mu better after graduation.
"Alright then, you promised, no take-backs!" Meng Wei’Er pointed at Lin Mu and said.
"Hey, I won’t go back on my word. I’m actually thrilled; only a fool would say no. I’ll wait for you. I’m willing to wait for you! But don’t fall for someone else!"
"Don’t worry!" Meng Wei’Er assured, patting her chest.
Lin Mu played around with Meng Wei’Er in the garden a while longer, chatting before going back to his room to rest.
The next morning, Meng Guoxiong prepared a car for Lin Mu. Since Meng Guoxiong’s leg injury hadn’t healed, he couldn’t move around much, so the duty of seeing Lin Mu off fell to Meng Wei’Er.
Meng Wei’Er didn’t mind at all, eagerly hopping into the car and sitting in the back seat with Lin Mu.
At the airport, Lin Mu and Meng Wei’Er got out of the car together. Meng Wei’Er pouted, looking reluctant to part. These days spent with Lin Mu indeed developed feelings, but whether that affection turned to love was unknown to anyone.
"Alright, Wei’Er, I’m leaving," Lin Mu said, pinching Meng Wei’Er’s nose.
"Brother Lin, you must come back often to see me," Meng Wei’Er pouted.
"Got it, remember not to go drinking in bars anymore. Always listen to your parents, or else I won’t want you," Lin Mu said with a smile.
"I will, don’t worry!" Meng Wei’Er nodded.
"Alright then, I’ll be off," Lin Mu said, picking up his luggage.
As Lin Mu was about to leave, Meng Wei’Er suddenly tiptoed and gave him a quick kiss.
"Brother Lin, that’s my first kiss! If you ever stop liking me, it would be irresponsible, and I’ll hate you forever!" Meng Wei’Er said stubbornly.
"Uh... looks like I have another tough task ahead!"
The time had come, and after bidding farewell to Meng Wei’Er, Lin Mu boarded the train back to Wancheng. An hour later, he arrived safely, pulling his luggage out of the station. He called Qi Manlin to pick him up since it’s only about a twenty-minute drive from East District to the airport.
"Hey, police girl, what’s keeping you busy?" Lin Mu asked cheerfully.
"Working, you big jerk. When are you coming back?" Qi Manlin replied hotly over the phone; she never spoke politely to him during their calls.
"I’m back at Wancheng station already; sis, come pick me up!" Lin Mu said with a happy grin.
"Hmph, you’ve been away so long, I thought you weren’t coming back. I’m not picking you up; take a taxi yourself," Qi Manlin huffed, though she sounded pleased, just pretending not to care!
"Sweetie, come quickly; I missed you so much," Lin Mu chuckled.
"Well, I want you gone! Haha!" Qi Manlin teased him, "Alright, I’ll head over in a bit."
"Hehe, I knew our police girl had great character!" Lin Mu laughed broadly.
"Buzz off! Who’s your girl? Watch your mouth, or I’ll rip it to shreds! I mean it!" Qi Manlin snapped, then hung up the phone.
"Uh..." Lin Mu pouted, feeling a bit of a headache!
Lin Mu waited at the airport for about twenty minutes, then his phone rang.
"Have you arrived?" It was Qi Manlin calling.
"Come out, I’m at the entrance of the airport lobby!"
"Hey, okay, coming out right away!"
Lin Mu hung up the phone, grabbed his luggage, and walked out of the lobby. Outside was a police car, with its window down, inside sat Qi Manlin, looking sharp in her police uniform.
