Chapter 1338: Chapter 1353: An Awesome Son-in-Law
Keep in mind, saving a person is not like killing one! Killing a person can be done in a single move, but saving someone is a technical task. Especially for someone like Scarface, who is almost dead, pulling him back from the gates of the Ghost Sect is as difficult as creating a new living being from scratch!
After an hour, Lin Mu was already drenched in sweat. He gently steadied his breath, then finished his technique and entered a calm state, marking the completion of his task.
Haihua was very considerate and helped Lin Mu wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"Honey, are you okay?" Haihua asked worriedly after seeing Lin Mu’s pale face.
Earlier, Lin Mu indeed expended a huge amount of inner strength. Without this, how could Lin Mu easily resurrect Scarface? If that were the case, he would truly be a miracle doctor! Therefore, treating Scarface nearly used up all of Lin Mu’s strength.
"I’m fine..." Lin Mu said weakly.
"What about my father?" Haihua asked.
"Your dad is fine. He’ll probably wake up tomorrow morning. Give him more nutrition and after a period of rest, it shouldn’t be a big issue." Lin Mu said.
"Honey, you’re simply amazing." Haihua said excitedly.
"That’s a must." Lin Mu smiled and stretched lazily. Today was tiring in itself, and after treating Scarface, Lin Mu was even more exhausted.
Therefore, Lin Mu couldn’t muster the energy to return to the hotel. He said, "Haihua, do you have a room at your place? I want to sleep; I’m simply too tired."
"Honey, go rest in my room." Haihua said.
"Alright." Lin Mu stretched lazily and, under Haihua’s lead, went to her room.
Haihua’s room, like any ordinary young girl’s, was a pink world. After entering the room, Lin Mu lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Of course, Haihua couldn’t accompany Lin Mu. Her father was still unconscious and needed her care.
To Haihua, despite usually being at odds with her father, he was the most important person to her, having been by her side since childhood. And Lin Mu slept from four in the afternoon until nine the next morning without even having dinner, which can be described as a comfortable, refreshing sleep.
Upon waking, Lin Mu had a simple wash and then left the room.
"Honey, you’re awake." Haihua greeted Lin Mu as he came downstairs.
Haihua had prominent eye bags, clearly showing she hadn’t slept all night; however, her mood seemed quite good.
"Did your dad wake up?" Lin Mu asked.
"Yeah, he’s awake now, said he’s a bit tired and resting. Honey, you’re really amazing." Haihua said, happily.
"Ahem, keep it low, keep it low. I’ve always been this amazing." Lin Mu smiled and said.
"Honey, let’s have breakfast first; I’ve already prepared it." Haihua said.
"Hmm!" Lin Mu nodded. He was indeed hungry and sat down, then unreservedly began to eat heartily.
After a satisfying meal, Lin Mu stretched his body; the feeling of being full is nice.
"Haihua, take me to see your dad. I’ll treat his wound, and he can completely get out of bed and walk within a day. In a week, there won’t be any problem." Lin Mu said to Haihua.
"Honey, thank you." Haihua happily took Lin Mu upstairs to Scarface’s room.
"Dad." Haihua called out, pulling Lin Mu over.
Scarface was lying on the bed, looking much better than yesterday.
"Boss Lin, thank you for yesterday." Scarface looked at Lin Mu with gratitude and said. He knew very well that if Lin Mu hadn’t appeared in time yesterday, not only his own life but also Haihua would have faced danger. Scarface was deeply grateful to Lin Mu, not only for saving his life but for saving his daughter and everything.
In the underworld, people are like this. If you give him a drop of water, he will repay with a spring. Moreover, if he meets figures more powerful than himself or people who have special kindness towards him, like Lin Mu, who is both capable and loyal, no matter how great or small, he will call them brother!
In the martial world, seniority is based on skill! Aspiration doesn’t depend on age; without it, one lives a hundred years in vain! If someone is indeed skilled, even if they’re only a teenager, they can be called master!
"Dad, Brother Lin is already my husband; you shouldn’t call him Brother Lin anymore, just call him Lin Mu." Haihua immediately corrected.
"Yes, call me Lin Mu." Lin Mu smiled, not caring about how others addressed him; he wasn’t someone who cared about vanity or titles.
"Dad, honey is treating you now. He said that in a day you’ll be able to get out of bed, and within a week, you’ll be recovered." Haihua said.
"Thank you so much." Scarface nodded, his voice calm, as if having experienced this, all his previous fiery temper had evaporated into the air, transforming him into an ordinary person. It’s what people usually say, after a great crisis, one’s temperament changes drastically!
Lin Mu signaled Scarface to lie down again, then once again applied his medical skills, using his inner strength. Soon, a thick black qi appeared between their bodies. Although it’s colorless and odorless, it felt very comforting, like massaging a wound. After a minute, Lin Mu retracted the cultivation technique, and the wound on Scarface visibly began to heal quickly, quite miraculous.
And lying on the bed, Scarface, who originally felt pain in the wound, now felt much lighter, and even no pain could be felt. This made Scarface admire Lin Mu’s skill even more, it was simply phenomenal. To think that he had actually wanted to cut him, it was a joke! Too overconfident! With the other’s skills, even if he sat there and let him cut, the one dying would probably be himself! This Boss Lin was simply an immortal who descended to earth!
What an impressive son-in-law! So in Scarface’s heart, the gratitude he felt towards Lin Mu was like the river water of Yangtze, endlessly flowing! Truly regret not having more daughters; if each daughter could find such a capable husband, the Hai family would surely profit greatly!
"Alright, rest. After tonight, you can get out of bed to walk and eat, but you can’t do vigorous activities. The wound won’t bring you much pain; just stomach pain. Take care to nurse it well, and in a week you’ll be back to full health!" Lin Mu said to Scarface.
"Thank you." Scarface thanked him, clearly feeling the changes in his body. Compared to just now, his whole being felt much more spirited; previously it felt like his soul was leaving his body, unable to muster any spirit.
"No need to be polite with me." Lin Mu said, then to Haihua, "Haihua, take good care of your dad at home. I have other matters to attend to."
"Alright, honey, are you coming back?" Haihua asked.
