Late at night, the sound of a phone ringing came from the head of the bed. It rang continuously for a long time.
Ye Huanyan groped for the head of the bed in a daze. "Hello?"
"Sis, are you at the villa?"
"You're … Xiaoqun?"
Ye Huanyan yawned and said in a muffled voice, "Of course I'm at the villa. Are you crazy in the middle of the night?"
"Sis, I don't have time to talk to you now. I'll be at the South Pier in ten minutes. Quickly ask Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu to pack up and leave the villa. The people from the United Nations Prosecutor's Office will surround the entire villa before dawn. You have to leave quickly."
"Are you talking in your sleep in the middle of the night? What nonsense are you talking about? "
He Chaoqun's voice suddenly became anxious. "Sis, someone reported Uncle Gu for illegally selling military equipment at the border of the country. The evidence has been sent to the Prosecutor's Office. They want to arrest him now."
"Are you kidding me?" Ye Huanyan yawned again. "Are you saying that my father is selling military equipment at the border of the country? Is he crazy? Our family doesn't even have a branch in the country. Where did they find the evidence? "
"Uncle Gu, did you invest in Huan Yu Group before?" He Chaoqun's tone was urgent. "The person who reported Pleasure Group for illegally selling military equipment is Uncle Gu."
"…"
Perhaps it was because Ye Huanyan didn't answer him, he finally couldn't help but say, "It was my father. I overheard it in the study. I heard my father say that he had already contacted the people from the Prosecutor's Office."
Ye Huanyan suddenly woke up. "What did you say?"
"My father has already contacted the people from the Prosecutor's Office. We've discussed a surprise attack on the Four Seasons Villa tomorrow morning. When the time comes, we'll directly seal off all the piers. Quickly inform Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu. I'm almost at the South Pier."
The sea breeze whistled, and a storm was coming. It seemed like it was going to swallow the entire Four Seasons Villa.
Ye Huanyan did not even put on her clothes properly. She took the initiative to wake up Chen Yin and Ji Xiaoyue, who were sleeping next door. After handing Naonnao to them, she stumbled to the East Courtyard to wake up Gu Heng and Wen Yi.
When the servant opened the door, Ye Huanyan's face was covered in rain and her hair was a mess. She didn't even take off her shoes and went straight up to the second floor. She knocked on the door of the master bedroom.
"Dad …"
Not long after, Gu Heng came to open the door with a coat draped over her shoulders. When she saw Ye Huanyan in such a sorry state, she frowned. "What happened?"
"Xiao Qun just told me on the phone that someone reported Gu Corporation for smuggling military weapons at the border. The people from the prosecutor's office will be here tomorrow morning, so Xiao Qun asked us to leave quickly."
Gu Ling's face darkened. "Xiao Qun told you?"
Ye Huanyan nodded repeatedly. After a few seconds of hesitation, she said, "Uncle He reported it."
The He family and the Gu family had been friends for generations. He Chaoqun's father, He Xiao, and Gu Heng were best friends who had played together since they were young. Ye Huanyan felt that no one would believe her even if she said this.
However, to Ye Huanyan's surprise, Gu Heng was exceptionally calm. She only nodded slightly. "I understand."
"Dad …" Ye Huanyan breathed a sigh of relief and said anxiously, "Hurry up and wake Mom up. Let's go. Xiao Qun said that she has arranged a place for us to hide temporarily."
"You take Naonnao and leave first. I won't go."
Gu Heng stood at the door with a determined expression.
"What's going to come has come." The door behind him suddenly opened, and Wen Yi's voice sounded. She was wearing a teddy bear pajamas, and she had a gentle expression on her face.
"You …"
"Don't worry, Yan Yan. We'll be fine."
Wen Yi walked up to her, took off her vest and draped it over her shoulders. "Leave this place with Xiao Qun. Take your friends and Xiao Yue with you. We'll take care of things here. We know what your Uncle He wants."
"Mom …"
"If possible, find a way to find your brother. He'll have a way."
Wen Yi did not say too much. She quickly asked Gu Min to drive Ye Huanyan away.
By the time Gu Min drove Ye Huanyan to the pier, it was almost midnight. Gu Liu had already sent the people from Xi Yuan to the boat and was ready to return.
The sea breeze gradually calmed down. After sending Ye Huanyan to the boat, Gu Min hurriedly drove back.
He Chaoqun drove a medium-sized speedboat that could accommodate many people. Naonnao was nestled in Chen Yin's arms. He was still grumpy from being woken up. He frowned and stared blankly as the boat moved further and further away from the harbor.
"Mom and Dad aren't coming?"
Ji Xiaoyue poked her head out from behind Chen Yin. She was shivering in her pajamas, probably because Chen Yin had urged her too much. She did not even change her clothes or take a jacket.
Everything happened too quickly. Everything happened so suddenly that they were caught off guard. Ye Huanyan had thought that the recent events had piled up to the limit of pressure. However, life always liked to play tricks on you. One wave after another came.
"He's not coming. Mom's health is not good. It's too rushed. Dad said that he wants to talk to Uncle He."
Ye Huanyan's eyes dimmed. When she mentioned Uncle He, her gaze fell on He Chaoqun, who was operating the cockpit at the front of the boat. He roughly adjusted the direction of the boat and turned around. He said angrily, "Um, sisters, there are clothes under the cabin. Put on the life jackets too. I'm afraid that we won't have enough time later and will run into the people from the prosecutor's office.
The group of people hurriedly took out warm jackets and life jackets from under the cabin.
There were a total of five people in the cabin, including He Chaoqun. Ye Huanyan and his mother, Chen Yin, and Ji Xiaoyue.
Gu Min and his brother, Gu Liu, stayed at the Four Seasons Villa to protect Wen Yi, so there were more than enough life jackets.
"My dad won't make things too difficult for Uncle Gu." He Chaoqun did not have much confidence when he said this.
"Don't explain. If it weren't for you …"
Ji Xiaoyue interrupted him in annoyance. She was about to mock him, but Ye Huanyan beat her to it. "It's not easy for you to come. Don't blame yourself. There's no need to explain. That's between Uncle He and my parents. They will solve it themselves."
He Chaoqun still had a bitter expression on his face. "I just found out about this. If I had known earlier, I would have thought of a way to remind you. My dad … there must be some misunderstanding between us."
"What misunderstanding could there be?"
Ji Xiaoyue suddenly pulled off the life jacket that she had not put on properly and growled, "First, Ling Han went missing, then Si Nian went missing. After that, he lured the tiger away from the mountain and eliminated all the foreign aid from the Gu family. Then, he took the blame. Wasn't this your dad's plan? What else do you have to explain? "
The anger and worry that had accumulated over the past few days exploded in an instant.
Chen Yin was carrying the child in her arms, so she could not hold down Ji Xiaoyue at all. Ye Huanyan was sitting far away from her, so the moment she stood up, the entire speedboat shook non-stop.
"Xiao Yue, hurry and sit down."
Everyone exclaimed, "Don't touch me."
Ji Xiaoyue swatted away He Chaoqun's hand, but due to inertia, she fell out of the cabin.
"Xiao Yue …"
Ye Huanyan screamed, and the blood drained from her face.
Everyone on the boat watched as Ji Xiaoyue fell from the cabin into the water and was drowned by the speedboat in the night sky behind her …
