Chapter 347: Unexpected
As a martial artist, Lin Mu would not have a big problem if he could not breathe for a short period of time.
So sinking in the pool, he could still observe what was going on around him.
The first thing that caught his sight was a pair of naturally beautiful white jade feet.
Further up, the few restraints on Du Wanxue's body were soaked by the pool water, and the beautiful scenery was looming in the water, which was extremely tempting.
Then came the long, ink-dyed hair, gently floating in the water.
All these scenes are obviously more dreamlike because a bath towel is floating on the water and the moonlight can only be dimly reflected in the water.
Fortunately, at this time, there was new movement outside, otherwise Lin Mu suspected that he would become addicted.
Kick, kick, kick...
A series of rapid footsteps came from outside.
"who?"
Du Wanxue spoke suddenly, with a cold tone and a hint of nervousness.
She behaved like a normal reaction of a young girl who hears someone coming in outside while taking a bath.
It's just right and lifelike.
"This Du Wanxue is not only a master of music, but also a superb acting master."
Lin Mu secretly admired him.
"Master Du, it turns out you are here..."
Hearing Du Wanxue's voice, Wang Zheng said gently.
But mid-sentence, he stopped abruptly as he walked through the back door.
Apparently, he had seen the scene behind the door.
The footsteps behind him also stopped.
"presumptuous!"
Du Wanxue's beautiful voice contained strong anger, "Get out of here."
"Everyone Du, this...this is a misunderstanding..."
Wang Zheng said with great embarrassment.
Although he was indeed a little excited to see a stunning beauty like Mr. Du bathing, he was more embarrassed.
"roll!"
How could Du Wanxue listen to his explanation.
Her bath towel can only block people's sight, but it can never block the perception of a peak martial artist.
So she couldn't let Wang Zheng regain his composure, let alone keep him for a long time.
"Du... everyone Du, don't be angry..."
Wang Zheng was afraid to explain.
"Get out, get out of here."
Du Wanxue looked even angrier, and her voice raised a few degrees again.
At this moment, perhaps half of the city lord's palace heard her angry scolding.
"Yes, yes, I'll leave now."
Being reprimanded by Du Wanxue like this, Wang Zheng felt a little angry in his heart.
However, if there were only two people present, he could still refute something.
Now that there was a group of guards from the City Lord's Mansion behind him, and celebrities from all walks of life gathered in the City Lord's Mansion, he could only retreat.
After all, he was the only one who saw the assassin walking in this direction, and other guards just followed him.
If he didn't leave, others might suspect that he was actually here deliberately to spy on the Du family taking a shower under the guise of catching assassins.
For an ordinary woman, this influence would be easily dealt with by him.
But the other party was Du Wanxue, a member of the Du family who was famous throughout the Yan Kingdom.
The slightest movement from the other party would attract countless eyes from all over the world, which even he was a little afraid of.
He even suspected that even if he retreated quickly, he would still have an unfavorable reputation tomorrow.
Maybe in the future, he will become a disciple in the eyes of the world.
As soon as the crowd outside left, the two people in the pool breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next moment, Lin Mu suddenly hugged Du Wanxue from behind and said coldly: "Tell me, who are you? What is your purpose?"
"Let go."
Du Wanxue was caught off guard and said in embarrassment.
In this situation, being hugged by a man is undoubtedly extremely embarrassing.
In fact, Lin Mu also regretted it a little.
He just wanted to use this method to find out the other party's details.
But as soon as he touched the other person's body, it was as if he was holding a piece of peerless warm jade. The smoothness and warmth of the other person's buttocks were clearly transmitted to him.
As a hot-blooded young man, he could not help but react.
However, now I can only bite the bullet and continue: "You speak first."
"Let go first."
Du Wanxue naturally noticed Lin Mu's abnormality and became even more embarrassed.
"If you don't tell me, I won't let you go. Who knows if you have ulterior motives."
Lin Mu did have this worry.
He and Du Wanxue didn't know each other before. Why did the other party want to save him? Moreover, he didn't behave like an ordinary musician. This was so strange.
"Yato, is this how you treat your benefactor?"
In embarrassment, Du Wanxue had to lower her voice, biting her red lips lightly.
Her face, which could be easily broken by a bomb, was also crimson, as if water was about to drip out.
Lin Mu tightened his hands suddenly, then released them, looking at her in disbelief.
Even in the Dark Night Camp, only Xu Canglie knows his identity now.
There is only one possibility for the other party to know his identity.
That is, the other party is also a black night guard, and he also knows Xu Canglie.
Suddenly, a person appeared in his mind.
That day in the Bronze Square, the girl of the Night Guard used an embroidery needle to stop Yu Jing from attacking him.
This girl from the Night Guard has been following Xu Canglie, even last night.
Before that, although he felt that the identity of the Black Night Guard girl was suspicious, he had absolutely no connection with Du Wanxue.
One is the Night Guard who lives in the darkness, and the other is the popular goddess and music master who attracts thousands of people's attention. These two identities are completely different.
As soon as Lin Mu let go of his hand, Du Wanxue immediately floated out of the pond like a butterfly.
Landing on the shore, she quickly rolled up her robe on the ground, then spun gracefully, and the robe neatly wrapped her up.
After getting dressed, she didn't squirm like an ordinary girl, and her face became cold again.
She walked to the shore of the pool and sat down slowly. Then she looked at Lin Mu and said, "Yadao, you don't have to be suspicious. I am the partner assigned to you by the military commander, and you will also be my partner from now on."
"partner?"
Lin Mu said doubtfully.
"In the Dark Night Camp, every Dark Night Guard has his or her own partner."
Du Wanxue's voice was like a bagpipe in the night sky, "No need to refuse, this is an order, neither you nor I can refuse."
"And this is indeed necessary to perform the mission."
"The Night Guard is not a killer and does not need to be alone."
"You're overthinking it. With a beauty like you as my partner, how could I refuse?"
Knowing that the other party was a friend rather than an enemy, Lin Mu relaxed and said with a smile, "So, are you here to cooperate with me tonight?"
"It's not cooperation. Tonight is our first cooperation."
Du Wanxue said, "You are responsible for killing, and I am responsible for dealing with the aftermath to avoid any accidents."
"In any mission, there is a high possibility of accidents, so a partner is even more needed."
Lin Mu was a little dissatisfied after hearing this: "Looking at you, it's obvious that you already know my identity and this operation, but I know nothing about it. Why didn't the old man tell me?"
"Only when you don't know can you better reflect your abilities and whether we have a tacit understanding."
Du Wanxue said, "Also, I can know in advance because I am different from you. I have carried out thirty-seven missions before this."
Lin Mu had a strange look on his face: "Then you are still a veteran Night Guard, why didn't you find a partner before?"
"In the past, the military commander also introduced me to many Night Guards, but those people were not qualified to be my partners."
Du Wanxue's voice was light, "Tonight, although your performance was average and too careless, at least you completed your task successfully."
