"..."

Feeling the obvious curve under his palm, Yu Xiuzhun’s eyes burst with a trace of agitation, pulling Ye Mingmei into his arms.

He took a long, deep breath to calm his excited mood.

"Come with me."

Yu Xiuzhun returned to his senses and immediately clasped Ye Mingmei’s hand, pulling her to leave.

Ye Mingmei informed Qin Youxuan, so their time was running short.

They must leave here immediately before anyone caught up.

"Mr. Yu, someone is approaching here, and it looks like a lot of people are coming!"

Yu Xiuzhun, just as he was pulling Ye Mingmei to the cabin door, ran into his assistant rushing over to report.

"I’m sorry, I thought you planned to keep going wrong, I wanted my sister to stop you, so I leaked your whereabouts..." Ye Mingmei bit her lip in guilt, lowering her head.

Now that Qin Youxuan was already chasing them, they had lost their last hope.

If things were really as Yu Xiuzhun guessed, and he went in with no chance to come out, Ye Mingmei didn’t know what would become of her.

She had oversimplified the situation...

"Yu Xiuzhun, you must go now!" Ye Mingmei suddenly lifted her head and pushed Yu Xiuzhun’s tall figure forcefully.

"Don’t worry about me, if you take me, my sister will be worried for my safety and pursue you relentlessly. You go now, I’ll stay to hold them off. When it’s all over, come back for me, I’ll wait for you no matter how long it takes!"

"No! I must take you with me!"

Yu Xiuzhun’s mischievous gaze tightened, holding on to Ye Mingmei’s hand.

Not to mention he wouldn’t let his woman stay behind to pave the way for him; with Ye Mingmei’s current situation, if the Ye Family found out she was pregnant, the baby might be in danger.

At this moment, he couldn’t possibly leave her behind alone.

"Yu Xiuzhun, just listen to me this once, okay? If we continue like this, none of us will escape. If something happens to you, what will happen to me and the baby?!"

Ye Mingmei choked, tears silently sliding from the corners of her eyes.

She didn’t even know when it started, but this man she once hated had silently etched himself into her heart.

Never before had she been this afraid, afraid of something happening to him.

"Mr. Yu, Miss Ye is right, as long as the mountain remains, one need not worry about firewood. We should leave first and come back for Miss Ye when the time is right."

The assistant anxiously reminded from the side.

Time was running out, and if they didn’t escape soon, no one would be able to leave.

"Yu Xiuzhun, go now!" Ye Mingmei forcefully pushed him and turned around, covering her mouth with her hand to stifle her cries.

She didn’t even dare to look at his departing figure.

"Mr. Yu, hurry, we’ll be able to come back soon," urged the assistant.

Yu Xiuzhun’s tall figure stood on the deck, looking at Ye Mingmei’s slender silhouette, his hand at his side clenching into a tight fist.

For many years, whenever people mentioned him, they couldn’t help but marvel at him being a genius young man.

At a young age, he controlled the entire Yu family, leading them step by step towards glory.

He had always lived under the halo, yet for the first time, he faced his woman right in front of him but didn’t have the ability to take her away.

A sense of helplessness filled his entire body.

Clenching his teeth, Yu Xiuzhun turned around, facing the wind, quickly leaving the deck.

His steps were swift, not daring to stop, fearing he wouldn’t be able to control himself from turning back and taking her with him.
