Jin Chenye put down the photo and looked up, "I just don’t know if his return is for revenge or to find someone."

Jin Chenye’s gentle eyes flickered, revealing a hint of inexplicable light.

"What kind of riddle are you two playing? Even I can’t understand it. Since Yu Xiuzhun is back now, who could he be looking for? An enemy or a benefactor?" Jiang Jinchen jumped up from the sofa and asked seriously.

"Do you think Yu Xiuzhun will come back to find Mingmei?" Qin Youxuan, who hadn’t spoken, was stunned for a long time before raising her head fiercely from Dan Hanjie’s embrace.

"Impossible. Mingmei told me that she had advised Yu Xiuzhun many times, yet he never listened. How could he risk coming back for Mingmei at such a time? I’d rather believe he’s back for revenge."

"We’ll know once we track his whereabouts." Dan Hanjie’s enigmatic eyes swept over with a gleam, his large hand rubbing Qin Youxuan’s small head, "If he really returned to Washington, he could be here in less than three days."

"Can we find him? Given Yu Xiuzhun’s caution, even if he returns, he might hide so well we can’t find him." Qin Youxuan frowned, looking worried.

Thinking of Ye Mingmei, who had already returned to the Ye Family, she began to contemplate whether to bring her back again.

"If we can’t find him, someone can."

"You mean..."

"Ye Mingmei." Dan Hanjie said bluntly.

"..."

Qin Youxuan was taken aback, looking at the exchanged glances between the others, she couldn’t utter a word.

Ye Mingmei’s focus is now entirely on Yu Xiuzhun, and even if Yu Xiuzhun has really returned, Qin Youxuan has no confidence she would inform them.

Emotions can never be thought of from a rational perspective. Ye Mingmei is already under a lot of pressure, she doesn’t want to make things difficult for her.

"Buzz buzz——"

"Hello, Mingmei, why are you still awake so late?" Qin Youxuan answered the call, surprisingly.

Everyone in the living room fell silent upon hearing it was Ye Mingmei’s call, and they stared intently at Qin Youxuan, who was on the phone.

"Sis, there’s something I want to tell you..."

...

Ye Family Villa.

Ye Mingmei hung up the phone, placed it on the tatami mat, and stood up.

Her delicate face bore an unprecedented serenity.

She returned to her room, walked to the wardrobe, and opened it, her gaze falling on the array of clothes. She chose for a long time before picking a cotton long dress.

The skirt had a flared hem and a loose fit that wouldn’t press at the waist.

Even the shoes were the most comfortable flat shoes.

After arranging everything, Ye Mingmei left the room and walked to the living room.

"I’m hungry and want some noodles." Ye Mingmei said shyly to the butler, scratching her head.

"I’ll prepare some right away for the young lady. Please wait for a moment, it will be ready soon." The butler was stunned for a second, then bowed respectfully and entered the kitchen.

His face showed obvious happiness.

Ye Mingmei hadn’t eaten much for dinner, only taking a few sips of porridge despite Su Yiru’s lengthy persuasion.

The butler was as anxious as Su Yiru, having noticed this.

Now hearing Ye Mingmei express a desire for noodles, he immediately put all his skills to use and cooked a bowl of delicious and flavorful soup noodles and brought it to the dining room.

"The young lady ate little at dinner. Eating something with soup now helps digestion and won’t lead to indigestion when you sleep later."

"Thank you."

Ye Mingmei inhaled the aroma of the noodles in front of her, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
