"Mom, when someone makes a mistake, do they have to accept punishment?"

"Of course, what kind of silly question is that? If everyone could do whatever they wanted, the world would be in chaos."

Su Yiru reached out affectionately to touch her face.

"Do you remember what your father taught you when he was alive? A daughter of the Ye Family may lack ability, but she can never be unable to discern right from wrong or good from evil."

"I remember." Ye Mingmei bit her lip, her gaze becoming dim.

"Alright, now that you’re awake, go outside and have dinner. After dinner, I’ll accompany you for a walk in the yard. Don’t keep staying in the room and overthinking; it’s bad for your health."

Su Yiru took Ye Mingmei’s phone, placed it on the bedside table, and led her out.

After dinner, Su Yiru stayed with the absent-minded Ye Mingmei until around ten o’clock, then told her to return to her room to rest.

As soon as she closed the door, Ye Mingmei hurriedly walked toward the bedside, grabbed the phone, and anxiously checked the call logs and message inbox.

There was no notification on the phone.

Spotlessly clean...

Yu Xiuzhun hadn’t contacted her again.

Ye Mingmei’s mood instantly dropped; holding the phone, she walked to the balcony and sat down on the tatami, staring blankly ahead.

The words Yu Xiuzhun said to her today echoed in her ears... then turned into Su Yiru’s reminders.

The two different voices were like a symphony, constantly clashing in her mind.

Ye Mingmei hugged her knees, curling up into a ball.

Only three days left.

She had three days to make a decision, but she couldn’t make it.

Ye Mingmei’s hand slipped onto her belly, the slightly protruding curve made her gaze dim again.

The afternoon dream suddenly shot into her mind, giving her a jolt.

Nervously protecting her belly, fearing that someone would actually drag her to the hospital.

"Yu Xiuzhun will eventually pay for his actions. If you’re really pregnant, this child will definitely have no father." Qin Youxuan’s words seemed to still linger in her ears.

Ye Mingmei hugged her arms tighter, her whole body sinking into a nameless anxiety and bewilderment.

...

At the same time, in a private villa.

The four people who were supposed to be resting gathered together because of an unexpected piece of news.

"This is the news we just received." Dan Hanjie placed a photo on the table and pushed it toward Jiang Jinchen and Jin Chenye, "Someone saw Yu Xiuzhun at the port in Colombia, and according to reliable sources, Yu Xiuzhun has already left there and his whereabouts are unknown."

"Finally tracked his movements, and he immediately changed locations; his vigilance is truly difficult to trace!" Jiang Jinchen slammed his fist into the sofa, a barely concealed anger on his face.

The case with Yu Xiuzhun had been followed for so long, using a large number of personnel several times, but still couldn’t catch Yu Xiuzhun in the act, it was truly maddening.

"My perspective is different; at this time, there’s no place more suitable for hiding than Colombia. Even if we know he’s there, Colombia is so large that we can’t possibly determine his location. There’s no need for him to leave in such a hurry."

Jin Chenye reached out, picked up the photo from the table, and furrowed his brow in confusion.

"What do you think?" Dan Hanjie raised his eyebrows.

"If our previous assumption is correct, I suspect he’s heading back to Washington."
