Chapter 1024 - 1039: Luring the Snake Out of Its Cave
Aside from being an assassin, Man Luo was an excellent person in other aspects. From a woman's perspective, Man Luo was definitely a stunning beauty, especially with her proud coldness, which deeply captivated Lin Mu. Her alluring coldness was distinct from those women in the bars; Man Luo possessed a unique cool beauty, untarnished by mundane or promiscuous traits.It wasn't until Lin Mu and Man Luo shared a bed that he realized she was a virgin, which changed his perception of her at that moment. Her aura was precisely the kind of beauty Lin Mu pursued, but unfortunately, their identities were different. Therefore, at that time, Lin Mu couldn't involve himself more with Man Luo.
Lin Mu thought Man Luo would be a passer-by in his life, yet unexpectedly she reappeared in his sight, albeit in a different manner. She stood against him, but Lin Mu was confident he could handle Man Luo.
Early the next morning, Lin Mu arrived at Yunhai Mansion again.
"Lin Mu, do you have any news from your side?" Sophie asked.
Lin Mu shook his head, "Not yet. They surely know that because of Su Xiaowan's matter, you would send people to search for them, so they've hidden themselves."
"Tomorrow is the exhibition, so they'll definitely act before it. I'm not worried they'll act at the exhibition site; the police will be heavily guarded, even if they get their hands on it, they won't escape. Now, I'm worried about the time before the exhibition," Sophie analyzed.
"Feifei, I have an idea. I wonder what you think." Lin Mu pondered for a moment and spoke.
"What idea? Tell me." Sophie asked.
"Since they're hiding in the shadows, why not take the initiative, find a way to lure the snake out of its hole and expose them?" Lin Mu suggested.
"How do we lure them out?"
Lin Mu nodded, "Here's the plan: their people will definitely be watching you at Yunhai Mansion. As soon as you leave, they'll report to their boss. In that case, you should go to the hospital, giving them a chance to kidnap you. Otherwise, staying at Yunhai Mansion, they won't dare to come in unless absolutely necessary, because coming in here is like seeking death!"
Upon hearing Lin Mu's opinion, Sophie pondered for a while, "Will this method work?"
"Rather than waiting idly, it's better to lure the snake out. This way, we can take action early and gain the upper hand. President, you understand the saying 'strike first to gain the advantage,' right?" Lin Mu chuckled.
"Alright, I'll follow your lead. Let's do it." Sophie nodded.
"Hehe, I plan to give them more chances. Let's choose the evening when it's getting dark. How about it? Are you afraid?" Lin Mu asked.
Sophie, having experienced many things, naturally wasn't afraid, "Okay, I'll follow your arrangements."
By around five in the afternoon, the sky had darkened. Sophie prepared a bit, bringing only two special guards along to the underground parking lot. The three got into the car, and the bodyguard drove toward Flying Dragon Hospital.
Sure enough, as Sophie's car exited the road in front of Yunhai Mansion's plaza, a young woman took out her phone and made a call, reporting to someone over the phone.
Not long after, a car stopped next to the woman, and she got into the car, following behind Sophie's car, albeit from a distance, due to the evening rush hour, which didn't attract special attention.
When Sophie's car arrived at Flying Dragon Hospital, two bodyguards accompanied Sophie to the inpatient department. The trailing car then slowly parked next to Sophie's vehicle, and a woman with a common appearance got out, glanced at Sophie going upstairs, then returned to the car.
Sophie arrived at Su Xiaowan's ward, and Lin Mu was already there. Su Xiaowan's injuries had greatly improved thanks to Lin Mu's treatment. If following typical medical procedures, Su Xiaowan likely hadn't passed the danger phase yet! Now Su Xiaowan could get out of bed and walk around, and within two days, Su Xiaowan could be discharged.
"President, you're here!" Su Xiaowan sat up from the hospital bed upon seeing Sophie enter.
"Xiaowan, how are you feeling today?" Sophie asked.
"Feeling much better, thanks to Brother Lin." Su Xiaowan said gratefully.
"Hey, don't thank me, it was just a small effort." Lin Mu chuckled.
"Xiaowan, take care and recover well. This incident has been tough on you." Sophie patted Xiaowan's shoulder, acknowledging the risk she took to keep the location of the ten treasures a secret. Otherwise, those treasures might have fallen into the wrong hands.
"Feifei, it's already dark. I think it's time for them to take action." Lin Mu glanced outside, seeing the lights on both sides of the inpatient department already lit up and the sky completely darkened.
Sophie nodded, "Are you sure they'll act?"
"Of course, whether sure or not, we'll find out soon." Lin Mu chuckled.
"Alright, let's proceed with the plan as previously arranged." Sophie nodded.
Then Lin Mu and Sophie separated to go downstairs, Sophie took the elevator, while Lin Mu walked down the stairs. After Sophie went downstairs, she took the two special guards back to her bulletproof Land Rover, while Lin Mu from another parking lot of Flying Dragon Hospital boarded another car.
At this time, Flying Dragon Hospital had become the largest hospital in Wancheng, with a huge number of visitors, hence multiple parking lots. Despite this, parking spaces were still in short supply, forcing some cars to park outside the hospital.
Sophie got into her car and slowly drove out of the parking lot. Wancheng is a city that doesn't sleep; the number of people increases at night. Flying Dragon Hospital is located in the city center, with heavy traffic, coupled with the fact that it's a hospital, increasing both pedestrian and vehicle flow.
As Sophie's Land Rover drove out of the parking lot, the nearby cars also started. During this moment, a few cars got between Sophie's car and the others. The women in the car did not seem worried, as Sophie's car was a multi-million dollar luxury vehicle, contrasting with the more common twenty-thousand-dollar cars on the road, making it easy to distinguish.
The women's Toyota gradually fell behind five to six other cars. Everyone was moving slowly within the hospital, making it difficult to speed up. After about three to four minutes, the women's Toyota finally exited the hospital.
"Keep a close eye, don't lose track." said the woman sitting in the passenger seat.
"Understood, Sister Qing'Er, their car is a bulletproof Land Rover, easy to track." said the woman driving.
