Chapter 396

"I didn't expect it would really lure Uncle over, tee-hee… Am I smart?"

Little Loli put on an expression that seemed to say, "I'm so smart, hurry up and praise me."

The speaker meant nothing by it, but the listener took it to heart.

Luo Yan was startled inwardly.

If Little Loli hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten.

What about those few kidnappers?

He had seen clearly from outside the car.

The kidnappers were three women.

Just now, he had fought his way into the company building, killing all the way to the room where Little Loli was being detained.

Yet he hadn't found a single trace of a woman.

Could they have been dealt with by Xu Hao?

However, when he came out following Xu Hao, he had glanced inside the room.

There wasn't even a shadow of the kidnappers…

Luo Yan felt somewhat suspicious.

He felt this matter wasn't that simple.

Seeing her daughter looking so smug, Yu Yun said unhappily,

"You still have the nerve to say that. What if you had enraged the kidnappers back then? It's only your good luck that nothing happened this time…"

After reprimanding her daughter, Yu Yun expressed her gratitude to Luo Yan.

Luo Yan replied that it was only right.

Originally, saving his aunt's daughter and receiving his aunt's thanks should have been a joyful matter.

But somehow, he just couldn't bring himself to be happy.

The reason, naturally, was that someone had stolen his thunder while he was saving people.

There were also many suspicious points he couldn't figure out.

It was like taking a sip of delicious soup only to find a screw in it.

His mood couldn't possibly be more depressed.

"President Xu, regardless of everything, you are Xiao Yao's savior…"

Yu Yun thanked Xu Hao once again.

What kind of person was Xu Hao?

A business myth with a net worth of hundreds of billions who had multiplied his market value more than tenfold within half a year.

Such a big shot.

Upon seeing her daughter in danger, he immediately stepped in to save her.

Yu Yun couldn't help feeling guilty…

Working in the legal profession, she had seen plenty of crimes.

She had seen all kinds of people and knew all those routines by heart.

Regarding Xu Hao frequently participating in charitable activities, building Hope Primary Schools, and donating to mountain areas,

she had assumed this was merely a method for Xu Hao to build up his persona.

In reality, this person was unfathomably deep.

Only…

Judging from the fact that Xu Hao saved her daughter today, she had been wrong.

Xu Hao truly had a kind heart.

"You're too polite…"

Xu Hao smiled.

Then, pretending to be puzzled, he said,

"Have we met before? You feel a bit familiar."

Yu Yun only then remembered.

Earlier, seeing her daughter's emotional state, she had forgotten to introduce herself.

Hesitating for a moment, she smiled and reached out her hand.

"President Xu, my name is Yu Yun, and I'm a lawyer."

"No wonder you felt familiar; so you are the renowned Lawyer Yu, it's an honor…"

Xu Hao reached out and gently shook her hand.

They separated at the slightest touch, without any lingering attachment.

Indeed, there was no need to linger.

Because before long, this female lead's entire body and mind would be his.

Nearby, Luo Yan, who had noticed all of this, sharply contracted his pupils.

He clearly saw that while shaking hands, his aunt trembled slightly…

He knew his aunt was cold by nature.

Even clients who paid her to defend them wouldn't get a handshake from her.

Presumably, this was his aunt's first time.

Luo Yan gritted his teeth in hatred.

This was blatant deception.

Clearly it was he who had put in the effort to save Little Loli.

Yet Xu Hao hadn't paid any price at all and had gained his aunt's favorable impression.

Watching Xu Hao being thanked by his aunt and younger sister,

felt even worse than being ignored himself.

"Sister Yun… is your daughter alright?"

A figure wearing a police uniform, with a breathtakingly beautiful face and heroic bearing, walked over.

It was none other than Policewoman Liu Yiran.

Yu Yun wore an expression of relief and lingering fear.

"She's fine. President Xu and Luo Yan saved my daughter."

Liu Yiran looked at Xu Hao.

"Dad… cough…"

As soon as Liu Yiran's voice fell,

she coughed a few times.

When she was together with Xu Hao, she frequently called him dad.

She had almost blurted it out and hurriedly changed her words, saying,

"President Xu, we meet again, what a coincidence."

"It really is quite a coincidence. I haven't had the chance to thank Officer Liu for her hospitality last time, and I was just thinking of inviting Officer Liu over as a guest one of these days…"

Xu Hao gave a meaningful smile.

It was a pun with a double meaning.

Liu Yiran's pretty face flushed slightly.

However, at this moment the night was thick.

The others couldn't see clearly.

But that didn't apply to Luo Yan.

A woman whose appearance and poise were no less than his aunt's walked over.

And she was a Policewoman.

With the added bonus of her identity, it was simply awesome.

Just thinking about winning her over made him feel ecstatic.

She was a Police officer, representing justice.

The sense of conquest was maxed out immediately.

Before Luo Yan could stay excited for long…
