Chapter 390
Mu Mother had already prepared dinner.
It was very sumptuous, filling the entire table.
There were many dishes beneficial for pregnant women, as well as dishes Xu Hao liked.
It had to be said that Mu Mother did a very thorough job as a full-time nanny.
After sitting down—
The three of them ate like a family of three.
With just one look, anyone would definitely think Xu Hao and Mu Mother were husband and wife,
and Mu Zijin was simply their child.
Who would have thought that Xu Hao and Mu Zijin were actually the couple?
"Uncle Xu, try this. Mom made it for you, and it tastes really good."
"And this one… this one too…"
At the dining table—
Mu Zijin kept putting food onto Xu Hao's plate.
Watching from the side, Mu Mother felt a pang of sorrow.
She felt like raising her daughter for nearly eighteen years had all been for nothing.
"All right, you eat some too…"
Xu Hao didn't refuse.
He picked up a piece of meat and held it up to her lips.
Mu Zijin paused for a moment before opening her mouth to eat it.
She was filled with happiness.
Then, copying Xu Hao, she brought some food to his lips.
The two were deeply affectionate with each other, sickly sweet.
Mu Mother really couldn't watch any longer.
Seeing them being so lovey-dovey made her feel awkward, as if she were a third wheel.
Mu Zijin stuck her tongue out playfully.
After dinner, they watched television together for a while.
Xu Hao proposed to leave.
He had other plans for tonight.
"Uncle Xu, it's already so late. Why don't you stay and rest here with us?"
Mu Zijin tried to get him to stay.
In fact, for a busy multi-billionaire like Xu Hao to take the time to accompany her,
she was already very satisfied.
Mu Mother nearby couldn't help but think of that day when her daughter called Xu Hao 'Daddy.'
She secretly shot her daughter a reproachful glare.
Don't you know you're pregnant right now?
You can't do anything improper.
Xu Hao patted her head.
"I have some business to take care of back home. I'll spend proper time with you next time. Be good."
"All right then."
Mu Zijin was sensible and did not insist.
Qingcheng Law Firm—
Inside the office!
A mature, exquisitely beautiful woman sat at the desk, reviewing documents with meticulous care.
The gorgeous woman had an otherworldly beauty, dressed in a lawyer's suit, exuding an elegant and noble aura.
Sitting upright with a serious expression on her face,
there was a sharp, piercing Qi between her brows.
One glance made it clear she was not to be trifled with.
And in fact, that was true.
In the entire legal profession, almost no one did not know her.
An undisputed Legal Queen.
She had always maintained a 100% win rate.
Any lawyer litigating against her had to summon twelve tenths of their Spirit.
Because with just one careless slip, they might end up being sent to prison themselves.
Once, a judge found her attractive and harbored inappropriate intentions toward her.
He only uttered a single threat.
The very next day, he was inside treading on a prison sewing machine.
Ring, ring, ring… Ring, ring, ring… Ring, ring, ring…
A sharp, urgent phone ringing echoed.
Yu Yun frowned slightly.
She picked up her phone and saw it was from her secretary.
Her brow smoothed out.
She tapped to answer.
"Sister Yu, this is bad! Xiao Yao has been kidnapped!"
The secretary's voice carried a weeping tone.
She stammered out what had happened.
It turned out that
just earlier, Yu Yun had finished dinner with her daughter, Yu Xiaoyao.
When they were about to go home, she remembered there were still cases left to handle at the firm.
So she had her secretary take her daughter home,
while she came in to work overtime.
Right when the secretary brought the daughter to the front door, two women suddenly rushed out,
grabbed the girl, and ran.
The secretary couldn't catch up in time and could only watch as the girl was bundled into a van and taken away.
Yu Yun's face darkened like still water.
Her usually calm face was now filled with panic.
Yu Xiaoyao was her daughter.
Although not biological, she had raised her from childhood.
Closer than blood.
Nothing must happen to her.
She had formidable defense abilities in the legal world.
She had saved many people, but offended even more.
She didn't know if this was a long-premeditated act of vengeance.
But she knew for sure that falling into their hands would bring no good end for her daughter.
Yu Yun panicked.
She hurriedly picked up her phone and contacted her good friend at the police station—
Policewoman Liu Yiran…
Outside a shopping mall—
A car was parked at the entrance.
Xu Hao sat in the car, calculating the time.
The distance wasn't far.
