"This will of Mr. Yu was made a month ago. Since it involves a considerable amount of assets, does Miss Ye have time to visit the law firm?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"..."

Ye Mingmei was completely dumbfounded. In the end, it was Jin Chenye who noticed her condition wasn’t right, held her, and took her to the law firm.

Once they arrived at the law firm, they learned that Yu Xiuzhun had anticipated something might happen to him and had transferred all his legitimate businesses and associated assets to Ye Mingmei’s name in advance.

"Mr. Yu mentioned that he knew you wouldn’t want anything unsavory from the Yu family, so he’s left you all his personal investments, with very clean sources of funds. With these, Miss Ye can live a prosperous life for the rest of her life."

The lawyer pushed the documents in front of Ye Mingmei.

"Miss Ye, you can take a look. If there’s no problem, you can sign."

"..."

Ye Mingmei sat there dazed, listening to the lawyer. Her body felt as if it were encased in plaster, too stiff to even lift her hand.

Her beautiful eyes moved, looking at the lines of the will before her. Her eyes turned slightly red, and tears began to fall.

She burst into tears.

Grasping the will tightly in front of her, she hugged it to her chest as if holding Yu Xiuzhun, crying like a child.

"Yu Xiuzhun, you idiot, you knew something would happen to you, so why did you come back..."

"You left me so much money because you were afraid I’d take your child and remarry. If you died, I wouldn’t want a single cent..."

"I’m the eldest Miss of the Ye Family, what makes you think I care about these things? I only want you to be with me, to be with our baby, to watch him be born with your own eyes, do you know..."

Ye Mingmei choked, gripping the documents too hard, her fingertips turning white.

Jin Chenye looked at her pale complexion, as if she might faint at any moment, and quickly reached out to pull her into his arms.

"Mingmei, calm down, there’s still a baby in your belly. You have to think of him."

"I don’t want to think, I don’t want to think about anything! I just want Yu Xiuzhun. How dare he make me fall in love with him and then leave me all alone..." Ye Mingmei’s hand went slack, and the documents fell to the ground.

She seemed possessed, tightly clutching Jin Chenye’s arm.

"Why did he come back? He even left a will. He came back ready to die. He said he would take me away, that the three of us would start anew. It was all a lie!"

"Mingmei..."

"I don’t want... I don’t want any of this... Yu Xiuzhun, did you hear me? I don’t want anything you left! I only want you, I only want you to come back..."

Ye Mingmei’s vision went dark, and her grip on Jin Chenye’s hand lost strength, and she fell heavily into his arms.

"Mingmei!"

Jin Chenye extended his arm quickly, catching her falling body, then picked her up in his arms and turned to walk out.

"Quick, call an ambulance... No! There’s no time, someone get down and help me drive!"

...

Hospital.

Ye Mingmei never expected that she had just left but was back so soon.

When she woke up, it was already night.

She lay in bed alone, quietly staring at the ceiling, surrounded by silence.

It was so quiet that it felt like the whole world had been isolated.

She couldn’t see anything, nor could she hear anyone talking.

In her mind, only the will and Yu Xiuzhun’s final instructions remained...
