Falling tonight

Chapter 148 The cat catches the mouse

The man standing at the door was about forty or fifty years old. He was dressed in black, with the brim of his hat pulled low, covering most of his face. He couldn't even see his eyebrows, only revealing a pair of sharp eyes.

He didn't answer Zhao Rou and just stared at her.

Like a hunter looking at his prey.

Zhao Rou had a bad premonition and subconsciously reached out to close the door.

But the man directly held the door with his hand, and held a small bag of white stuff in his other hand, raising it in front of Zhao Rou.

Zhao Rou only felt a layer of white mist floating in front of her eyes. With each breath, her body became limp, her consciousness began to become unclear, and she fell to the ground unconsciously.

The old house of the shepherd family.

Mu Zhou was drinking morning tea with the old man in the living room when he received a call from Zhang Xiuying.

"Mr. Mu, you asked me to deliver breakfast to Miss Zhao, but I just knocked on the door for a long time, and no one came to answer the door, and the phone was not answered. She should not be at Miss Tian's house."

"Not here?" Mu Zhou suddenly sat up straight, frowned, and tightened his grip on the cup.

"Aunt Zhang, wait there and keep calling her. I'll have someone go check it out now." Mu Zhou gave a brief instruction, hung up the phone, and dialed Gao Songqing's number.

"Mu Zhou, what happened?" Mu Ronghai asked with a deep voice, staring at the frowning Mu Zhou.

"It's nothing, grandpa, you eat first, I'll take care of the work matters." Mu Zhou responded casually, got up, left the dining table, and walked quickly outside the house. At this time, the call was connected.

"Zhao Rou is not at Tian Yingying's place. Go check where she is. First check the medical records of various hospitals."

Mu Zhou rubbed his forehead with a headache.

Could this woman not have given up yet and still want to abort their child?

Gao Songqing was stunned for a second on the other end of the phone, "Looking for you again?"

Zhao Rou ran away again?

I have searched back and forth several times in the past few days. Is Zhao Rou playing a game with Mr. Mu?

Cat catches mouse?

"What?" Mu Zhou asked, not hearing clearly.

"Well, no problem, Mr. Mu, I'll give you news in ten minutes." Gao Songqing sweated. This job is too difficult. He has to deal with the company's affairs, and he has to deal with the CEO's woman, hehe.

Gao Songqing complained in his heart and immediately went to work to find someone to remove the surveillance near Tian Yingying's house.

Mu Ronghai stared at Mu Zhou's back outside the house, drank a pot of tea slowly and unhurriedly, got up and walked to Mu Zhou's side with a cane.

Mu Ronghai knocked on the floor with his crutch, "Is it something about Zhao Rou's child? A day has passed and I haven't coaxed anyone to bring him back. Now something has happened."

Mu Zhou put one hand in his pocket, turned around to look at the old man, and sighed, "Grandpa, nothing happened to her. It's all about my work."

Mu Ronghai's pair of deep eyes had seen so many people and things. At this moment, he caught a glimpse of the unusual anxiety on Mu Zhou's face, and he understood something in his heart, "Remember what I said, if you don't bring Zhao Rou back home for us to see you today, If you see me, don’t come back.”

Mu Zhou kept Zhao Rou's affairs in mind and didn't care about the old man's words. He nodded hastily, "Grandpa, please drink your tea slowly. I'll leave first."

After saying that, he stepped forward as fast as possible and walked quickly to the car.

Mu Ronghai stared at his back and shook his head, "This grandson still doesn't understand women!"

The butler, Uncle Li, stepped forward and bowed his head respectfully, "Mr. Mu, Mr. Mu never talks about his personal affairs to the family, but he has his own considerations in everything he does. You don't have to worry too much."

"Hmph!" Mu Ronghai snorted coldly, "If I really knew what I was thinking, I wouldn't have trouble coaxing girls. By the way, I went out to shop today and saw that the one next door is back?"

Uncle Li was stunned for a second, then realized that Mr. Mu was talking about the Xiao family, and nodded, "Yes, Mr. Mu, the girl from the Xiao family is back, and her parents are still abroad."

"That girl from the Xiao family," Mu Ronghai suddenly realized, and immediately raised his gray eyebrows, "Didn't she like to pester my grandson the most before, but now? There is someone around Mu Zhou, is that girl still pestering Mu Zhou? "

Uncle Li said nothing, "This..."

Mu Ronghai glanced over with sharp eyes, and Uncle Li hurriedly lowered his head, "Mr. Mu, when you didn't come back a few days ago, Xiao Mu always asked me to take people over to clean up the Xiao family's old house, clean it up for Miss Xiao and let her move in... …”

"This kid!" Mu Ronghai shouted, "Why are you so nice to that girl from the Xiao family! That girl from the Xiao family must have ruined my grandson's wife's affairs! Otherwise, why would a good girlfriend want to have an abortion! Give it to me Call the bastard back, go! He just hasn’t gone far, let him come back! I have to ask clearly, whose business are you going in such a hurry for?"

Uncle Li responded, "Okay, okay, Mr. Mu, I will contact Mr. Mu now."
