Chapter 594: Chapter 398: Is she avoiding him? (Third Update)_1

A doctor’s heart is filled with kindness.

Mu Lin may often follow her instincts, but everything she has done since leaving the mountain indicates that she has never forgotten that she is a doctor.

Even if she once emphasized that she left the mountain in order to fulfill her master’s promise.

Countless incidents that had just happened were reminding Gu Muqing that legends should not be trusted.

After dinner, they arrived at the suite where Mu Lin was staying. With a quick glance at the room number next door, Mu Lin opened the door and went in.

She glanced around, carefully observing Mu Lin’s quarters.

It was alright, at least she was not inconveniencing herself.

Gu Muqing was generally satisfied with Mu Lin’s room. However, to the two soldiers, it seemed rather luxurious.

"Tsk, tsk, I wonder how much such a suite costs per night." A soldier mumbled quietly under his chin, affirming that the world of the rich was really quite different from theirs.

"It’s very cheap." Mu Lin said, "They only charge a symbolic fee for the room." It’s almost a few hundred per night, having been discounted to the lowest possible rate.

Such discounting was really trivial for those who did not lack money. It was not about making money, but about building personal relationships.

Er...

The cold voice faintly startled the speaking soldier. He was sure he had spoken very softly, yet she was able to hear from such a distance, what kind of ears did she have?

"A symbolic fee?" Gu Muqing looked at Mu Lin.

"Yes." Mu Lin nodded, smiling lightly, "Just before I went to Ming City, I happened to save the father of the chairman of the Hongda Hotel. I stayed in their presidential suite in Ming City all the while. At that time, I was treating the old master of the Hong Family, so I lived there for over a month for free." This was actually Hong Mingsheng trying to ingratiate himself with her.

While Mu Lin spoke lightly of this and Gu Muqing found it normal, it was jaw-dropping news to the soldiers.

Staying in the presidential suite for free, my goodness, this was simply bee’s knees; with their meager income, they couldn’t even afford the room they were standing in.

Why hadn’t they thought of studying medicine earlier? By casually saving a rich person, they could live a worry-free life.

Cough... Well, they still preferred being soldiers serving the people because they weren’t exactly good at healing and saving lives.

Mu Lin was unaware of the soldiers’ exclamations. She nonchalantly continued, "Before coming to C Province, I went back to Ming City. When I left, Hong Mingsheng gave me a VIP card for this place." As a result, she could enjoy the highest level of hospitality in any Hongda Hotel in any city or province.

Actually, this arrangement was quite good. For someone like Mu Lin who often needed to stay in hotels, Hongda was her first choice.

It was clean, hygienic, and she didn’t need to go out of her way to buy necessary toiletries. As long as she informed them in advance, they would prepare everything before her arrival, just like they had done this time.

Compared to giving her money, Mu Lin indeed preferred this arrangement. It was convenient.

Gu Muqing nodded thoughtfully, "It seems that Hong Mingsheng is really grateful to you." This could be seen from his actions; Gu Muqing had heard that Hong Mingsheng was a dutiful son.

All this time, although the majority of the Gu Family’s business was in B City, Gu Muqing had also interacted with some corporate magnates.

Although her impression of Hong Mingsheng wasn’t deep and they didn’t communicate much, she could say that her impression of Hong Mingsheng was passable.

Having said that, Gu Muqing suddenly took two steps forward, grabbed Mu Lin’s hand, and looked at her. Her well-maintained face reflected a mother’s warmth, "Linlin, would you like to stay with me in the military camp for a couple of days?"

She had been considering this before leaving the camp, always hesitating whether to bring it up. However, she made up her mind to speak up after seeing Mi Zheng.

However, it still depended on Mu Lin’s wish. If she wasn’t willing, Gu Muqing wouldn’t force her.

Gu Muqing thought of having Mu Lin accompany her for two or three days in the military camp. Her idea was that if Mu Lin wasn’t staying here, the man who wanted to steal Jing Chen from them wouldn’t have a chance. Maybe if he couldn’t see Mu Lin for a couple of days, he would check out automatically.

"Go to the military camp?" Mu Lin had never really thought of it.

Gu Muqing nodded, "I think there should be people you know in the camp."

Mu Lin raised an eyebrow.

Are there?

"It seems you forgot already." Gu Muqing laughed helplessly, "The military area in C Province is different from B City. It mainly belongs to the Naval Marine Corps. If I remember correctly, your previous wilderness survival test was part of a competition among the soldiers under Jing Tian, wasn’t it?"

"Jing Tian!" Mu Lin raised an eyebrow. Images of Jing Tian’s handsome, effeminate, yet distinctly heroic face flashed in her mind, along with his fox-like smile. She smiled lightly; she indeed had strong impressions of Jing Tian.

Gu Muqing nodded and smiled, "Right. It seems you didn’t know that Jing Tian and his men are from C Province." Her probable future daughter-in-law didn’t seem to pay much attention to ordinary matters.

Mu Lin honestly shook her head, "I really don’t know." All she knew was that those people were from the Naval Marine Corps; aside from B City’s Military Area, she really didn’t know anything about those from other places.

"I heard those who lost to your new recruits that time were given rigorous training by Xiaotian upon their return, they were so worn out they barely had the strength to hold chopsticks." This was what her family member had told her, and she found it somewhat unbelievable, but after learning that Mu Lin was part of them, she started to believe it.

Indeed, it was harsh; however, it wasn’t surprising that Xiaotian would be angry after the veterans lost to the recruits who had only been training for less than three months.

It wasn’t actually anger, Jing Tian just felt that those people deserved to be trained; losing was good too, lest they think they were invincible all day long.

"Actually, we barely won that day." Or perhaps it could be said, their synergy at that time was better than the opponent’s.

Regarding the previous incident, Mu Lin surprisingly showed a degree of humility, and Gu Muqing didn’t make any comments, after all, she didn’t understand the affairs of the army.

"Perhaps, would you like to see the differences between the Naval Marine Corps and your army?" Gu Muqing was making a considerable effort to recruit a daughter-in-law for her family.

Looking at Gu Muqing, Mu Lin was silent for a moment, and Gu Muqing was waiting patiently for her to think.

In any case, whether she went or not, she wouldn’t be at a loss; worst case scenario... she could just stay here and not leave today.

It’s not easy to see her future daughter-in-law, she had to keep her here for a meaningful conversation and to build their relationship, while also keeping an eye on that person next door.

To be frank, Gu Muqing completely understood, the other party would not give up that easily.

While a brave woman fears a jackal, although she had complete faith in her son and daughter-in-law, who knows what other tricks the other party might play, the other person seemed quite inscrutable.

In the end, under Gu Muqing’s anticipatory gaze, Mu Lin agreed.

She was temporarily idle, it may as well be a good idea to take a look.

As for whether to stay there, that’s another story.

Then, when Mu Lin and others left, Mi Zheng came to Room 2813, and looking at the open door next door and the work vehicle parked in front of it, he raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Where is she?"

"Are you referring to the guest in this room?" The waiter looked at Mi Zheng, stunned for a moment, then reacted.

Mi Zheng simply nodded.

"The guest checked out an hour ago."

Checked out.

Mi Zheng frowned, looking thoughtful, but the corner of his mouth curved up again at the next moment.

Was she, hiding from him?

Without knocking again, Mi Zheng turned around and walked towards the elevator.

His eyes narrowed, with a vague smile; in the expansive C Province, he was curious to see, where could she hide.

...

C Province, Naval Marine Corps.

To get here from the hotel where Mu Lin was staying, it would also take two hours if you drove by yourself, Mu Lin didn’t expect it to be so far; But Gu Muqing was chatting with her all the way, talking about Jing Chen’s childhood, which Mu Lin found interesting, so the two hours passed quickly.

Unlike the military area in B City, the Naval Marine Corps chose a location not near the jungle, but ... on the seaside, or rather, a place incredibly close to the seaside, and in the other direction lies a range of overlapping hills, not high, not steep, which seems like a good training ground for daily use.

The soldiers in the camp were already familiar with Gu Muqing, who was their bride, and she would come over periodically; However, the young girl who was always with her starkly attracted the eyes of all the soldiers who passed by.

All along the way, the curious and amazed gazes never stopped, many people were speculating who the beautiful young girl was, could she be their daughter!

But they remembered they only had a son and no daughter; well, it’s also plausible that she might be a relative’s child; no one considered the possibility of a future daughter-in-law.

There were women soldiers in the camp, and many in the Naval Marine Corps, but they’ve never seen a girl as beautiful as her, there was indeed a difference between this girl and a goddess.

At this moment, many soldiers had an urge to try something.

"What are you all looking at?" A shout came, the iron-blooded voice resonated in the ears of many soldiers, "A kilometer run for those who are distracted." So, a slightly prettier woman made them restless like this, what would they do if they had to carry out a mission in the future.

A bunch of guys who need training.

Quickly regaining their senses, they sighed and resumed their run.
