Chapter 1240: Chapter 1239: Thoughts and Echoes

Su Mei’s brows furrowed once again, and she asked with immense worry,

"Tang Mu, how many undercover agents do we have on this island?"

Tang Mu answered, "Just Lin Dong and his brother."

"Oh, right, Red Rat and Grey Snake, those two are also Lin Dong’s men."

"What? Just a few people." Su Mei became even more anxious, "Can this work?"

Tang Mu tried to reassure her, "Su Mei, don’t worry. Lin Dong is really capable."

"I know he’s incredible in medicine, I’ve followed him before and saw him defeat the top Eastern Medicine practitioner from Paocai Nation, becoming our Dragon Country Chinese Medicine hero. But that’s just his medical skills, it’s useless here."

"No matter how good his medicine is, it can’t beat these bandits... and there are so many of them!"

Su Mei still seemed very worried.

For a while, Tang Mu didn’t know how to explain it to her.

Tang Mu was aware of the martial artists.

But Su Mei wasn’t.

Although Su Mei was a star in the entertainment circles, she had not been exposed to the layer of martial artists and thus didn’t know about their prowess.

"Su Mei, just relax. As long as Lin Dong is here, don’t worry..." Not knowing how else to explain, Tang Mu decided not to continue.

She just said this to her.

Although Su Mei was still worried, she couldn’t say much at that moment.

All she could do was pray that someone would come to rescue them.

"If only we could send a message back to Dragon Country," Su Mei thought to herself.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

"Who is it?" Su Mei asked nervously.

"It’s me." Lin Dong’s voice sounded.

Tang Mu and Su Mei had closed the door while they were talking. Now Tang Mu hurried to open it.

At that moment, Lin Dong was holding several sets of new clothes, which he handed to Tang Mu and Su Mei.

"Here are some new clothes I found. You can take them."

Tang Mu nodded, took a set of new clothes, and prepared to take a bath.

Before going, she jokingly asked Su Mei, "Want to join me?"

Su Mei gave her a look and said, "I think you want to be with your man, right? I’ll leave the spot for him."

Saying this, she looked towards Lin Dong.

Tang Mu’s face flushed with annoyance as she glared at Su Mei, then hurried toward the bathroom.

Feeling like she was fleeing the scene.

Lin Dong also felt a bit awkward and touched his nose to hide it.

It seems women like to make bold jokes among themselves. Even the purest women, even those who’ve never dated, do the same.

Earlier I heard about goddess dormitories watching action films together... Lin Dong thought it was a joke, but now it seems like it might be true.

Women might act reserved in front of men, but the jokes they make among themselves can be bolder than men’s.

After Tang Mu entered the bathroom, Su Mei kept staring at Lin Dong.

"Tang Mu said you were in disguise? How can I not tell?" Su Mei questioned, as she thought disguises were just about makeup.

She was also very skilled at makeup, but she couldn’t recognize at all that Lin Dong’s face at the moment was the same as the leader of the Southern Faction’s Traditional Chinese Medicine, Lin Dong, she had previously seen.

Lin Dong didn’t bother to explain and simply peeled off his disguised face.

Immediately revealing his true face.

At this sight, Su Mei exclaimed, "Oh my god, it really is you! So handsome, even more so than the photo I saw online!"

"No wonder Tang Mu, that girl, dreams screaming your name. So handsome, what woman could resist?"

Lin Dong felt embarrassed and curiously asked, "Tang Mu was calling my name in her dream?"

"Yes, didn’t you know?" Su Mei eagerly shared, "I went to Tang Mu’s house for a dinner party before, and after having some wine it was too late to go back, so I stayed over at her place."

"That night, we shared a room. I heard her calling your name 1008 times in her dreams, yes, that night because I suffered from insomnia, I even counted. So this number 1008, it’s definitely not made up by me."

"That’s 1008 times, you know. I thought at first that someone owed her money, making her call out so many times in her dreams. Only later did I find out that the person was you."

Hearing this, Lin Dong fell silent.

Meanwhile, in the bathroom, Tang Mu, who was bathing, also heard this.

Water droplets fell on her body, surrounded by steamy mist, and at that moment her heart pounded rapidly, reaching the peak of nervousness.

Even though it was her best friend speaking, she couldn’t help but feel as if she were the one confessing.

Her breathing paused, and she forgot to wipe her body, letting the water droplets cascade over her.

Lin Dong also remained silent for a long time.

"Why aren’t you saying anything? Tang Mu misses you so much, so after you and she parted ways after high school, have you thought about her?" Su Mei asked on behalf of Tang Mu once more.

In the bathroom, Tang Mu, who was bathing, couldn’t help but press her body against the door, eager to hear Lin Dong’s response.

At that moment, she was really nervous, so nervous that she could hear her own heartbeat.

And Lin Dong responded, "I have."

"After high school graduation, I went to follow my master to learn martial arts and medicine, and almost every night during that time, I would think of her..."

Buzz!

Upon hearing this, Tang Mu almost dashed out of the door in excitement.

Luckily, she remembered she was taking a bath.

So while the door was not opened, someone did not go out, it still caused some noise.

This made both Lin Dong and Su Mei turn their gaze towards the bathroom.

Looking, through the frosted glass door of the bathroom, they saw that Tang Mu had been eavesdropping.

Su Mei couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle.

As for Lin Dong, he too felt a bit awkward, his cheeks turning slightly red.

Tang Mu belonged to Lin Dong’s white moonlight, and how could Lin Dong not have any feelings about this white moonlight?

After high school graduation, Lin Dong went to the mountains to follow Daoist Master Qing Shan to cultivate, learning medicine and martial arts.

During that time, each day of martial arts learning left him bruised and exhausted.

And studying medicine also took up much of his time.

It was truly exhausting then, far more tiring than the third year of high school had ever been.

The only time he could rest was at night when he went to sleep. And those were the times he felt the loneliest.

In those lonely nights, he almost always thought of Tang Mu, his white moonlight.

Whose girlhood isn’t filled with yearning, and whose boyhood isn’t restless?

Girls dream of their beloved, boys cherish their moonlight.

That was the most naive love, but also the most genuine love.

However, such love often ends in regret.

Lin Dong and Tang Mu also thought that their connection would end with regrets.

But fate brought them together again, and right now, their hearts were filled with the turbulence of youth.

"This time, I don’t want to have regrets anymore." Tang Mu in the bathroom, leaned her head back allowing the shower to drench her completely, her gaze firm and unobscured by the fog.

And in the room, Lin Dong also clenched his fists tightly, silently saying:

"This time, I want to take control of destiny in my own hands."

"I want that every thought and remembrance of hers finds an echo in me!"

This time, he did not want to miss or let down the girl who called his name 1008 times in her dreams once again.
