Chapter 2 - 1: Sweet Mission_
Without a doubt, she was a stunner capable of captivating everyone! A pure white pendant, her eyes radiating endless allure, every move exuded grace! Her image was practically a crime of seduction!
Noticing Lin Mu’s attention on her, the lady became even more alluring, strutting along a straight line like a model on a catwalk.
It was as if, after thousands of years in the barren Sahara desert, a torrential rain suddenly poured down, refreshing... Lin Mu’s equally primitive and desolate heart was suddenly elated!
For a whole seven years on that distant African Continent, he’d grown accustomed to the blood, rain, and bullets. Besides, Lin Mu rarely had missions outside, and hardly encountered any true beauties. He hadn’t even seen many of Africa’s famous indigenous women, let alone a first-class beauty of this caliber!
For a moment, Lin Mu was so mesmerized that he instinctively reached for a tissue to prevent a nosebleed. He never denied that he was a normal man with strong physical needs, and compared to ordinary men, his needs were even more robust, as evidenced by his stubbly beard.
To some extent, the density of one’s beard can gauge a man’s performance in that regard.
Lin Mu was no Liu Xia Hui and never pretended to be. There was nothing to pretend about; the pursuit of beautiful women by men was perfectly natural. Not liking beauties would be an enormous mistake.
As Lin Mu hesitated whether to further explore the other’s physical structure, as if by tacit understanding, the beauty slightly bent down and asked, "Sir, is this seat taken?"
"No...it’s not..."
Lin Mu seemed flattered, thinking that even if someone was there, he’d just kick them out the window.
"There’s no one here, please, sit anywhere..."
While saying this, Lin Mu patted the seat next to him, although there wasn’t any dust on it.
"Oh, thank you!"
With a twist, the beauty sat proudly opposite Lin Mu, elegantly adjusting her shirt. In Lin Mu’s twenty-some years of being an ordinary person, she’d definitely been the most lethal beauty with a confident smile playing at her lips, provocatively locking eyes with him...
Lin Mu couldn’t help but feel smug about himself; with the entire carriage full of men, the fact that the beauty chose his side meant she must be interested in him. Seems like there’s hope today! Just by relying on his killer charisma! Haha, he thought of checking himself in the restroom mirror later to see if he’d gotten even more handsome today.
Incredible! If he could look as astoundingly handsome every day, how would other men even live?
With such confident thoughts, Lin Mu adjusted his hair, and yes, at a crucial moment like this, his hairstyle mustn’t be messed up. Thankfully, it was a simple buzz cut.
With the beauty sitting across from him, he couldn’t let the conversation die out! Lin Mu cast what he believed to be a captivating glance her way, just about to flirt, when she started the conversation first, gently raising her hand, orchid fingers touching the army-green hiking bag Lin Mu carried, meaningfully asking:
"It seems like this big brother is traveling a long way, may I ask where you are headed?"
Lin Mu couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed, glancing at his old and worn army-green hiking bag. Even though he had flipped the side with "Agriculture Study Dazhai" inwards, it still couldn’t hide its rustic essence!
Darn it, this broken thing totally detracts from my handsome image in such a romantic, warm, and ambiguous setting—it’s a real mood killer. If he’d known there would be girls, he’d have brought out a luxury LV version!
Hell, from now on, he surely wouldn’t be this understated again!
So before she could touch the bag, he reflexively pulled it back, tucking it under the seat, while offering a harmless smile, "Yes, I’m coming from Xinjiang, heading to Wancheng, will arrive by afternoon. And you?"
The beauty’s heart skipped a beat; if this guy is so afraid of me touching his bag, could it be harboring the guns and ammo mentioned in the reconnaissance intel? But outwardly, she remained calm,
"What a coincidence, we’re on the same route."
"Pleasure to meet you, my name is Lin Mu. May I ask for your name, miss...?"
With a goofy grin, Lin Mu tried to strike up a conversation, eager to develop a rapport. However, just as the chat reached a climax, her phone audibly rang—damn, what lousy timing!
The beauty deliberately turned away towards the window, facing outward, and pulled a pair of earbuds from her bag to put on.
This seemingly inconspicuous small action didn’t escape Lin Mu, the experienced Special Forces King. He immediately recognized those earbuds weren’t ordinary accessories a girl would carry, but rather advanced communication equipment used in reconnaissance and military operations!
Lin Mu’s expression of frivolity promptly vanished as the realization dawned that this beauty had come with ill intentions. Recollecting last night’s nightmare, he wondered whether this woman was friend or foe?
After all, having hovered on the brink of life and death countless times, Lin Mu was used to remaining unflustered even when the sky seemed to collapse. Fine, whatever tricks she wants to play, he was game!
Meanwhile, in her earbuds under the carriage window, a subtle voice came through, "Captain Qi, Captain Qi, please respond!"
This was her subordinate, Bai Kaixin, the deputy captain of the Wancheng police, speaking. The Captain Qi he referred to was this long-haired, gorgeous police flower and the newly appointed captain of Wancheng police, Qi Manlin.
