Chapter 788 805: Massage
"Then let's just...""So I've made a decision. I won't pressure you to get engaged or anything. Even if you wanted to, I wouldn't want to, because it would involve my parents and family. So I've loosened my requirements. If you can resolve the relationship between me, you, and Sister Feifei, I'll agree to it!" Qi Manlin said seriously, without a hint of joking.
In Qi Manlin's concerns, there are only two things that make her uneasy. One is Lin Mu's engagement, and the other is the love triangle with Sophie. Qi Manlin and Sophie have been best friends since childhood, and their families have a relative connection from the previous generation. Qi Manlin's mother, Su Jinzhi, is Sophie's aunt, so technically, Sophie is Qi Manlin's distant cousin!
Therefore, Qi Manlin can disregard Lin Mu having Zhou Xun and Xia Yuyi, but Sophie is her cousin. Sharing a man with her best friend and cousin is somewhat uncomfortable! So, the engagement isn't something Qi Manlin needs to worry about for now, but she definitely needs to clear up this cousin and best friend relationship with Sophie, or else unnecessary conflicts might arise!
If a family that's so close gets torn apart by a man, what would that look like?
"Hey, sister, are you serious?" Lin Mu grinned.
"Of course, I don't have the courage to say this to Sister Feifei. Anyway, if you solve these problems, no matter what you do, I'll go along with it!" Qi Manlin said.
"Don't worry, I promise I'll handle this matter perfectly!" Lin Mu said confidently, although he knew things wouldn't be as simple as he imagined.
After all, Sophie is the Queen of Wancheng, and Lin Mu can sense her strong ambition and possessiveness. He has Xia Yuyi and Zhou Xun, but he can't let her find out. If she finds out, wouldn't she mind? And even more, Lin Mu's trying to eat the grass at the edge of the rabbit's hole, even wanting Qi Manlin, her best friend and cousin! If the proud beauty of a CEO finds out, would she take off Lin Mu's third leg?
Of course, as an ambitious man, Lin Mu's aspiration is to be a towering man, and such a man cannot be swayed by a woman, even if she is the most formidable businesswoman of Wancheng. Lin Mu is confident he can conquer this queen and make her a part of his harem!
Of course, Lin Mu doesn't think this will be easy either! But thinking about it, life isn't smooth sailing. How can you appreciate the value of happiness without overcoming trials? Without experiencing storms, how can you see the brilliant rainbow?
Lin Mu made a resolution internally to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Sophie. But discussing this kind of thing requires finding the right moment, as the Queen of Wancheng, Sophie, isn't one to be trifled with. If he plays it wrong and doesn't say a word, she'd kick him out in a second, without giving him any chance!
Of course, discussing this requires Sophie to genuinely accept his status as her fiancé first. Otherwise, with Sophie's current aloof attitude, bringing it up would make the proud business queen think Lin Mu has given up pursuing her and switched to chasing other women! Then wouldn't Lin Mu end up empty-handed?
So discussing this must be approached with careful planning and only mentioned when Sophie starts to genuinely care about him. Otherwise, bringing it up rashly would be a sure disaster!
"Hope so, but absolutely don't ruin the relationship between me and Sister Feifei, got it?" Qi Manlin reminded.
"Got it, with your sisterly bond so strong, how could I bear to ruin it?" Lin Mu nodded.
"Alright, I've said what I needed to say. As for how it turns out, that's up to your luck!" Qi Manlin said.
"Rest assured, the final result will definitely make you satisfied. I still want to teach you some bedroom skills, hehe!" Lin Mu raised his eyebrows at Qi Manlin, wearing a mischievous grin.
"Bastard, nothing good ever comes out of your mouth! You can't say one decent thing! Hmph, you're really infuriating!" Qi Manlin cursed, although she had long gotten used to Lin Mu's inappropriate behavior. In the past, she might've been driven mad!
