A Warm Wedding and A New Bride of Young Master Lu Chapter 828 - Mumu Had Been Kidnapped

Chapter 828 Mumu Had Been Kidnapped

A short time later, Xiangyi fell asleep in Mu Sijue’s arms.

She tilted her head with one side of her face buried in Mu Sijue’s arms, and the beautiful outline of her double-fold eyelids was clearly visible.

She clenched her small hand near her mouth and looked so satisfied in her sweet sleep as if she were holding something delicious.

Mu Sijue finally knew how happy Lu Boyan was now.

However, he was not envious because he would soon lead a happy life as well.

Lu Boyan took his daughter to her room and put her on the bed, then he went downstairs with Mu Sijue.

On their way down the stairs, Lu Boyan suddenly asked, “Are you sure that Liang Zhong wouldn’t betray us?”

Liang Zhong and Kang Ruicheng were in personal contact, so Lu Boyan was still worried that Liang Zhong would tell Kang Ruicheng about the whereabouts of Xu Youning.

“I’ve warned him,” Mu Sijue said. “After Liang Zhong met Xu Youning in the club, I found out that he had a connection with Kang Ruicheng. However, even if Kang Ruicheng asks him about it, I don’t think he will dare to reveal anything.”

After a pause, Mu Sijue continued, “And even if Liang Zhong tells Kang Ruicheng about it, Kang Ruicheng still can’t take Xu Youning away from the top of the mountain—this feeling would be more torturous.”

That was right. It would be torturous to know the truth but not be able to do anything about it.

Mu Sijue’s words showed that he was as cunning as Lu Boyan.

Downstairs, they ended the topic tacitly.

When Su Jian’an saw Lu Boyan coming down, she put down the teacup and asked, “Where is Xiangyi?”

Lu Boyan glanced at Mu Sijue and said, “He put her to sleep.”

Xu Youning almost got choked upon hearing the words and wondered, “Mu Sijue put her to sleep?”

“She would cry in my arms, but she could fall asleep in his arms?”

“d.a.m.n, does he have magic?”

Su Jian’an was also surprised, but she did not show it on her face at all.

Mu Sijue said to Xu Youning, “Let’s go back.”

“All right.”

Xu Youning said goodbye to Su Jian’an and Lu Boyan and then followed Mu Sijue out.

After getting in the car, Xu Youning couldn’t help looking at Mu Sijue from time to time.

She did this so many times that Mu Sijue could not help but ask, “If you have anything to ask me, just say it.”

“When did you learn how to put a baby to sleep?” Xu Youning asked curiously, “It doesn’t sound like something you would do.”

Mu Sijue glanced at Xu Youning and said, “I learned it because I would have my baby one day. You have a problem with that?”

Xu Youning didn’t dare to say yes. She nodded and said, “No. After all, we ordinary people have no right to judge you.”

However, Xu Youning still thought it was inconceivable—the omnipotent man, Mu Sijue, actually learned how to get along with a baby.

“Maybe he’s really looking forward to having a baby.”

To change the topic, Xu Youning asked, “Your cooperation with Liang Zhong is not as simple as you said, is it? If you have just kicked Liang Zhong out of the project, would he have taken the risk to attack you?”

Maybe ordinary people in City A didn’t know much about Mu Sijue, but Liang Zhong did.

If he hadn’t suffered a great loss, Liang Zhong wouldn’t have dared to offend Mu Sijue.

Since Xu Youning had known Kang Ruicheng for so many years, she could see through it clearly.

Mu Sijue looked at Xu Youning with appreciation and explained, “After I kick Liang Zhong out of this project, he would lose his most profitable business and his status in the south will be much lower than that of those who came with him yesterday.”

That meant, after Mu Sijue kicked Liang Zhong out of the project, Liang Zhong’s business and status were threatened. No wonder he dared to take the risk to attack Mu Sijue yesterday.

Liang Zhong probably wanted to make a final effort. If he made it, he might be able to reverse the situation.

But now, Liang Zhong could only ask Kang Ruicheng for help.

Would Kang Ruicheng know her location through Liang Zhong?

If Kang Ruicheng knew where she was, would he go up the mountain to pick her up?

Xu Youning was lost in thought. When she returned to the villa on the top of the mountain, she was still thinking about that.

Mu Sijue got out of the car and opened the door of the pa.s.senger seat. Only then did Xu Youning realize she reached home. She unfastened her seat belt, and when she was about to jump out of the car, Mu Sijue carried her out of it.

He then put her on the ground.

Xu Youning looked up in shock and saw the displeased look in his eyes.

“What did I do that provoked him?” She wondered.

“Xu Youning, you’re pregnant now!” Mu Sijue warned her in a deep tone. “You should be careful.”

Only then did Xu Youning realize that her trying to jump out was too dangerous in Mu Sijue’s eyes. It was indeed not something a pregnant woman should do.

“All right… I won’t do this again…”

Xu Youning whispered; she was always more stubborn than others.

Mu Sijue took her into the bathroom and ordered, “Take a shower and go to bed early.”

Xu Youning looked at Mu Sijue, unwilling to give up. She pushed him out and closed the door.

When she came out of the bathroom, Mu Sijue was no longer in the room.

He must be dealing with something in the study now.

Xu Youning was glad that Mu Sijue was not around at the moment. After drying her hair, she lay down on the bed. Her head suddenly ached, and then everything started to blur.

She thought of what the professor and Doctor Liu had said.

“In the future, your symptom will become worse and worse. If you don’t handle it in time, you may die…”

She couldn’t do it, and she didn’t want Mu Sijue to know the truth.

He loved babies so much that he even began to learn to be a good daddy. The truth would be a cruel blow to him.

Xu Youning pulled over the quilt to cover herself, gritting her teeth and waited for it to get better.

The pain lasted for 10 minutes.

Ten minutes later, the pain eased. She kicked the quilt away, and everything in her sight gradually became clear.

She touched her sweaty forehead, which was frighteningly cold.

Fortunately, Mu Sijue didn’t see all this.

Xu Youning got up and drank some hot water. Then, she lay back on the bed and soon fell asleep.

She slept soundly as if nothing had happened.

When Mu Sijue came back from the study, he saw that Xu Youning had fallen asleep, so he closed the door quietly.

For so many years, he was used to being alone and doing whatever he wanted.

Xu Youning’s presence inevitably changed him a bit.

However, he accepted it completely, as if Xu Youning was a part of his life. He didn’t need any transition period to adapt to Xu Youning’s presence, and he even had some expectations for their future.

No wonder Lu Boyan, who had made up his mind to divorce Su Jianan two years after they got married, did not divorce her at all but even had two lovely babies with her.

Some people really could keep you attached to them.

After Mu Sijue took a shower, he hugged Xu Youning and slept all night peacefully.

The next day soon arrived.

In Xu Youning’s room at the old residence of the Kang family.

The birdsong downstairs gradually became clear. Mumu woke up, rubbed his eyes, and sat up in a daze. He looked at the bed, but he didn’t see Xu Youning.

Before Xu Youning left, she promised him that she would come back when it was dawn.

Now it was dawn, but she didn’t come back yet.

He seemed accustomed to her letting him down. He calmly washed his face and went downstairs.

Today, his daddy was talking to the guest, so he could not disturb them. He sat on the stairs with his hands on his chin and tilted his head to listen to their conversation.

“Liang Zhong, you’ve met Mu Sijue. Tell me the truth. Did you see Youning?” Kang Ruicheng asked Liang Zhong, who was sitting opposite him.

In the past few days, Kang Ruicheng had been looking for Xu Youning. But after Mu Sijue took Xu Youning away, she completely disappeared.

Now, all of Kang Ruicheng’s hopes were on Liang Zhong. He had shown several photos of Xu Youning to Liang Zhong.

Liang Zhong immediately realized that the woman in the photo was the one he had met in the club the other day.

But Mu Sijue had warned him that if he dared to reveal Xu Youning’s whereabouts, he would report all the things he had secretly done in the past few years to the police.

Liang Zhong was more or less afraid of Mu Sijue, but now, Xu Youning’s whereabouts could be a bargaining chip for his negotiation with Mu Sijue.

Liang Zhong smiled at Kang Ruicheng and said, “I just know where Mu Sijue is now. I guess Xu Youning should be with him.”

Kang Ruicheng hit the table and asked, “Where is he?”

“Mr. Kang, calm down,” Liang Zhong said, “I’m going to use the whereabouts of Xu Youning to make a deal with you. Since we’re going to make a deal, I have to confirm if she is with him. Can you wait for me for a day?”

That day was the time for him to negotiate with Mu Sijue.

“How are you going to confirm it?” Kang Ruicheng asked.

Liang Zhong answered in a mysterious tone, “Don’t worry, I have my own way. As for whether she is there or not, I will definitely tell you later.”

After saying that, Liang Zhong left.

Before he could go far, a child’s voice came from behind him. “Uncle!”

Liang Zhong turned around and saw a little boy wearing a pair of small leather boots and a black wool coat. Someone whispered to him, “This is Kang Ruicheng’s son. I met him in Kangs’ house last time.”

“Does Kang Ruicheng really have a son?”

Liang Zhong instantly thought of an idea, so he beckoned him over and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Do you know where Auntie Youning is? Can you take me to her?” Mumu took out two lollipops from his pocket and continued, “I’ll give you all my lollipops!”

“I know where she is. Keep the lollipops for yourself.” Liang Zhong smiled and lifted up Mumu. “I’ll take you to her.”

Mumu smiled happily and said, “Thank you, uncle!”
