Chapter 1556: Chapter 1571: It’s Actually the Chief

"What?" **** exclaimed, her face pale. She had clearly heard of this illness, and she knew how deadly it was. Even if cured, its aftereffects were severe. It could leave someone bedridden for life, with a crooked mouth and eyes, barely resembling a normal human.

She slumped to the ground in despair, murmuring to herself, "It’s over, it’s over..."

"Hey, do you want to save him or not?" Lin Mu rolled his eyes and couldn’t help but speak.

"Sir, do you, do you have a way? Can you really cure him?" ****’s eyes lit up. She sat up suddenly, causing a dizzying wave that nearly made Lin Mu drool.

She couldn’t believe she had coincidentally run into a miracle doctor in such a place.

"This kind of thing is a piece of cake for me. I can handle it in minutes. Come on, give me a hand and prop him up first."

Lin Mu had survived this long not just because of his insane combat power, but also due to his exceptional medical skills tied to the Diamond Sutra, as the Shaolin Vajra Sutra is actually a book on healing people, with martial arts being secondary!

So, to him, obscure Chinese medical issues were no more a problem than a cold, and he was skilled in acupoint study, massage, and needling. His experience often proved that Lin Mu was much more adept than that senior physician at the Flying Dragon Hospital!

While sneakily glancing at ****’s half-naked, seductive body, Lin Mu reached out, his fingers swift as the wind, tapping the man’s body at various points: Tongtian, Yuzhen, Tianzhu, Fengmen, then Tanzhong, Qi Sea, hitting dozens of points before narrowing his eyes. Suddenly, he lifted his palm and slapped it on the man’s head at his temple. Then, the seemingly breathless guy opened his mouth, emitting a light "oh" sound.

After Lin Mu’s fussing, the man’s life was no longer in danger. As Lin Mu took a closer look, he unintentionally noticed the man’s ID peeking out of his pocket. Taking a look, oh, it was the esteemed director of the Public Security Bureau in the Pearl River Delta! No wonder he seemed vaguely familiar!

Standing nearby, **** felt waves of heat rushing at her as Lin Mu exerted his power, drying her damp hair and enshrouding it in mist in just a few seconds. She instinctively covered her mouth, unable to hide the astonishment on her face.

"What... what happened to me?" The man awoke as if from a dream. Seeing Lin Mu, his face changed immediately. He struggled to stand and shield ****, sternly demanding, "Who are you, what do you want?"

"Oh, come on, what’s with that look?"

Lin Mu grunted, feeling quite disgruntled.

So inconsiderate, I’m your savior after all. Not inviting me for a feast or offering me a gold brick as thanks is one thing, but giving me this attitude right off the bat? Damn, is being a director of public security so impressive? Giving Lin Mu, the Wolf Fang Soldier King, the cold shoulder like this—I’m thinking maybe I should crush this ungrateful old guy back to a vegetative state. But **** hurriedly explained how Lin Mu saved him just now.

The burly man furrowed his brow, signaling **** to put on some clothes, then approached Lin Mu, saying, "Oh, brother, I’m really sorry. I misunderstood you."

"No need to..." Lin Mu’s dissatisfaction rose, just as he was about to mock them. He suddenly remembered the man’s identity, "Ha, no wonder you looked familiar. Aren’t you Director Liu Genyou of the Public Security Bureau?"

"Bro-brother, you must be mistaken, right?"

Liu Genyou’s face changed slightly. A director isn’t like a district mayor, rarely appearing in media. He thought this young guy wouldn’t recognize him, yet here he was, having his identity exposed in a single sentence. Liu Genyou felt a chill in his heart. Since the top leader took office, there had been a major crackdown on public officials, with countless officials fallen due to misconduct.

His relationship with **** was something that couldn’t see the light of day. If their affair spread, even without evidence, it would surely impact his career. With the district’s political secretary about to take office, he couldn’t afford the slightest mistake at such a critical juncture...

"Young brother, it was a misunderstanding on my part earlier. Here, just a small token, not much but a gesture of respect."

In the viewing pavilion, Liu Genyou pulled out several thick bundles of cash, offering them to Lin Mu with a gracious smile. Coming from grassroots, climbing to where he was today wasn’t accidental. If it were any other official, they would likely assume airs, but his smile and tone carried genuine sincerity, like a gentle spring breeze, making one feel at ease.

Unfortunately, Lin Mu seemed unimpressed by this show of humility.

He rolled his eyes, turning his head away, and said indifferently: "Director Liu, you’re too kind. A healer’s heart embraces the world; saving lives is our duty. Accepting money would be beneath us."

If people familiar with Lin Mu were here, hearing this, nine out of ten would be shocked speechless! Who was this guy? Cunning with those few hairs on his head like a monkey! Though not to the extent of snatching at every opportunity, he would never forego deserved benefits. This revealed he had grander designs in mind!

"Sir, your nobility truly commands admiration!"

Seeing the awkwardness in the air, **** seamlessly took over the conversation. Her voice was soft, wet hair cascading over her fair face, exuding a seductive allure.

"Not at all, not at all!" Since he had assumed the role of an otherworldly sage, Lin Mu certainly couldn’t ogle persistently at the graceful figure barely veiled beneath the sheer skirt. He waved his hand, raising his chin with a cocky look.

"Humph!" A dignified public security director being dismissed by a young upstart made Liu Genyou’s heart quite unsatisfied. Just as his face darkened and he prepared to speak, **** stepped forward to hold his arm, preempting him, "By the way, may we ask the gentleman’s name?"

Five years ago in Wancheng, who wouldn’t have known Lin Mu of the Flying Dragon Group, but now? Alas, how fate toys with us!

"A chance meeting, no need to mention!" Lin Mu shook his head and, seeing the rain had stopped, rose to leave the pavilion.

His calm demeanor made Liu Genyou internally relax, while **** appeared anxious, quickly saying: "Please wait, sir, your medical skills are remarkable. Would you please give Old Liu a further examination?"

"Examine what? Aren’t I fine now?" Liu Genyou frowned.

"Oh, ignorance truly is bliss! Haven’t you heard the story of Bian Que treating Qi Henggong?"

"You mean..."
