Chapter 1030 - 1045: Adorable Monkey
"I know this, but given our capabilities, there's really no way to get those jewels. If we continue, it's undoubtedly sending us to our deaths," Manluo said.The man pondered for a while and his voice softened a bit, "Alright, I promise you. I'll send someone to Wancheng right away to assist you. I hope nothing goes wrong this time. As long as you put your heart into it, you will surely succeed, and I'll give you the money I promised."
"Thank you for understanding, contact me once your people arrive," Manluo said.
"Got it, they'll be there by tomorrow morning at the latest, if nothing goes wrong, they might arrive tonight," the man said coldly.
"Okay, I'll be waiting for your news."
After saying that, Manluo hung up the phone and pulled out a woman's cigarette, calling out, "Qing'Er."
Qing'Er pushed the door open and came in, "Sister Manluo, what's up?"
"Keep sending people to watch over Yunhai Mansion. Report to me immediately if there's any situation," Manluo said, exhaling a puff of smoke.
Qing'Er glanced at Manluo and asked, "Sister Manluo, are we still going to act?"
"Yes, I've already told the employer, the boss will send someone to assist us. It'll be easier to get things done," Manluo said.
"So, when will they arrive?"
"Probably tonight, at the latest tomorrow morning."
"Alright, I'll send someone to watch Yunhai Mansion right away," Qing'Er nodded, then left the room.
Meanwhile, at the Wancheng Public Security Bureau, Lin Mu was sitting in front of the Chief Police Officer, chatting and joking, "Hey, Chief Police Officer, I've got a request for you!"
The Chief Police Officer squinted at Lin Mu from her large office chair, "You brat, what are you up to again? If you want to put on a show, I'll find people to help you act, make a big scene, what more do you want?"
"I don't want anything else, so get all your police forces back, just pretend nothing ever happened," Lin Mu chuckled.
The Chief Police Officer frowned, "You rascal, what new tricks are you trying to pull now?"
"Not pulling anything, oh come on, listen to me," Lin Mu joked as he started to massage the Chief Police Officer's shoulders with a flattering look.
"You tell me to send out the police and then recall them, you think you can just play me like a monkey?" The Chief Police Officer grumbled discontentedly.
"Uh… the world doesn't have a monkey as gentle and lovely as you. If you really became a monkey, then wouldn't I become a public monkey?" Lin Mu said earnestly while massaging her shoulders.
"Get lost, stop bantering with me," the Chief Police Officer glared at Lin Mu.
Lin Mu chuckled, "Oh, Chief Police Officer, I'm begging you, please!"
Eventually, the Chief Police Officer succumbed to Lin Mu's sweet talk, "Alright, I'll notify everyone right away."
Qi Manlin notified each team, having all police forces withdrawn, leaving only some to patrol the streets, so very quickly, the originally restless Wancheng suddenly seemed much calmer.
The Chief Police Officer glared at Lin Mu and pinched the soft flesh on his waist, "You rascal, you still have the nerve to speak, tonight I'll lock my door when I sleep; don't sneak into my room anymore, go to Yu Yi or Xiaoxun instead."
"Uh…" Lin Mu pursed his lips, "You know about what happened with them?"
The Chief Police Officer rolled her eyes at Lin Mu, "You keep causing such a commotion every time, our rooms are next to each other, do you think I wouldn't hear?"
"Uh… alright then." Lin Mu chuckled, "Seems like you're pretty tolerant towards me."
"Nonsense, does tolerance help? Don't you know your own behavior?" The Chief Police Officer glared at Lin Mu.
No woman is willing to share a man with another, including Chief Police Officer Zhou Xun, but they understand Lin Mu. They want to control him but can't, yet they don't wish to give up his love, so rather than opposing him, it's better to understand him, as long as they can receive Lin Mu's sincere love.
"Hey, come on, let me give you a kiss," Lin Mu chuckled, moving forward to kiss the Chief Police Officer.
But this time, as soon as Lin Mu moved in, he was unceremoniously rejected by the Chief Police Officer.
"Don't bother me anymore, this is the office, not home, act properly," the Chief Police Officer pushed Lin Mu away.
"Cough, cough, alright then." Lin Mu chuckled.
"Well, if you have nothing else, don't disturb my work," the Chief Police Officer said.
"I still have a bit to do, so I won't disturb you then." Lin Mu said, having other matters to attend to, namely keeping an eye on Manluo.
Although Lin Mu had met Manluo only a few times, he understood her personality a bit. If Manluo said she wouldn't let this go, then she definitely wouldn't.
Between Sophie and Manluo, Lin Mu didn't want either of them to be hurt. Although Lin Mu and Sophie hadn't had deeper communication, she was Lin Mu's nominal fiancée, whereas Manluo was quite the opposite, though it wasn't evident, she had been Lin Mu's woman once.
So both palms and backs of the hand are flesh; naturally, Lin Mu would keep a close watch to prevent any harm to any of the meat.
The whole afternoon, Manluo stayed in the hotel room waiting for news from the employer, but by the time night fell, there was still no news from their side. At this moment, Wancheng's situation was tense. Staying in Wancheng one more day meant one more day of danger.
Therefore, Manluo still hoped for their people to come quickly and discuss the action plan together. Once this matter is completed, they could leave Wancheng sooner; Wancheng's circumstances were completely different from what Manluo had imagined before coming.
