Chapter 909: Chapter 597: Grandpa Jing Shows No Mercy (Third Update)

"What are you laughing at?" Looking at the curve of Mu Lin’s lips, the other party furrowed their brows, unable to comprehend how Mu Lin could still smile at a time like this. Could it be that she really wasn’t afraid of death?

"Take a look behind you." Mu Lin reminded leisurely with an expression that remained relaxed, the curvature of her lips turning into a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

Tsk, tsk, tsk... So careless.

However, upon hearing Mu Lin’s words, the other party’s frown deepened, "Don’t try to fool me." He had encountered this scenario before; they were trying to trick him into allowing an escape, weren’t they! Forget about a door; there wasn’t even a window.

Mu Lin sighed; tell me, can no one believe the truth these days? Did she really appear to be someone who’d fool people?

She raised an eyebrow, looking indifferently at the people in front of her.

Mu Lin shook her head; ah... she had wanted to be just a little bit more "kind."

"If you’re smart, don’t resist," the person continued, paying no heed to Mu Lin.

"Resist what?" A cold voice came from behind everyone, prompting an instinctive turn of heads, and in the moment they saw who it was, they were utterly stunned.

"Jing Chen... How is he here?" In disbelief, they couldn’t help but retreat, watching Jing Chen cautiously. Some had even completely forgotten about Mu Lin.

Why had Jing Chen suddenly appeared?

"We’ve been played by them," the leader quickly realized, finally understanding, but alas, it was too late.

Casually closing the car door, Jing Chen slowly strode toward Mu Lin, his steps firm yet fast.

That moment, the leader snapped to his senses and, steeling his heart, placed a dagger harshly against Mu Lin’s neck.

It seemed they temporarily couldn’t take Mu Lin’s life—at least not until they were safe.

Mu Lin, exasperated, "You do realize you’re digging your own grave by doing this," she said in annoyance. What could she do if not even the gods could stop him from courting death?

Her elegant brows slightly furrowed.

But truth be told, she really didn’t fancy someone placing a dagger to her throat! As for Jing Chen, his expression changed completely in that moment.

His eyebrows furrowed tightly, showing cold bloodthirstiness, and murderous intent.

Even though he knew Mu Lin was joking and wouldn’t get hurt, he still couldn’t let go of the one attempting to harm his beloved. Lifting his foot, he step by step drew nearer to the man. With each step, everyone felt their hearts skip a beat, and even breathing became difficult.

However, hearing Mu Lin’s words, the man merely snorted coldly, looking towards Jing Chen, "Big Boss Jing, you may be who you are, but don’t forget your wife is in my hands. If you take another step, I’ll kill her right away." As he spoke, the knife pressed closer to Mu Lin’s neck, he swallowed instinctively, "Be smart and let us leave. Just get us to safety, and I’ll release her right away."

To be honest, to say that he wasn’t scared would be a lie, otherwise they wouldn’t have waited for him to be away to make their move.

However, watching his actions, both Jing Chen and Mu Lin’s eyebrows tensed, and they pursed their lips.

"Say that again." Jing Chen’s voice was laced with a thick murderous intent, though his footsteps gradually came to a halt.

The opponent’s face relaxed slightly in that moment; it seemed his threat was effective. Jing Chen truly cared about the safety of this woman.

However, the smile on his face didn’t last for two seconds. Next moment, the knife in his hand suddenly dropped, clanging loudly and jolting everyone’s nerves, while the so-called Boss suddenly collapsed uncontrollably backward, his face expressing agony as he clutched at his chest.

"Bro Monkey, Bro Monkey..." The lackeys immediately rushed to help him up.

Bro Monkey!

Mu Lin raised an eyebrow; to have such a name and still dare to call himself Bro Monkey, don’t insult the handsome Monkey King in her heart, please.

Mu Lin took a few steps toward where Jing Chen was standing, turned around, and looked apathetically at him, "It seems you’ve probably forgotten that there’s another title I go by. What was it... Oh, right!" Her expression seemed as if she had just remembered, "It’s called Poison Doctor." Sigh, it had been so long since it was last mentioned, she had almost forgotten herself.

"You can look down on me as a person, but at the very least, you should watch out for my poison," she said in a tone that seemed genuinely helpful.

With a light sigh, "I was a bit bored recently and thought about playing along with you, but what a pity." Mu Lin didn’t want to see that worried look on her man’s face, nor did she like becoming something that threatened Jing Chen.
