Ye Fan was stunned for a moment.

"Xiao Nuan..."

Ye Nuan looked listlessly at the empty lunchbox on the table: "You didn't make this, did you? It was takeout..."

"Dad, you really can't lie."

There was something awkward about Ye Fan's face.

"Sometimes, if you tell too many lies, you might even start to believe them yourself."

"Dad, I don't want to get involved in anything related to Duan Ye anymore. I can't get out, but if I want to die, no one can stop me."

Ye Nuan smiled, a smile of relief she had never shown before.

Ye Fan looked at her for a long time and felt that Ye Nuan was like a mannequin, and every word she said was a threat and a lie.

Ye Fan remained silent for a long time before sighing, "You look a lot like your mother."

Ye Nuan: "Yes, she said so too."

Ye Fan stood up: "Dad didn't come to force you. Dad just wanted to come and see you."

"Xiao Nuan, Dad hopes you're doing well. You're still young and have a bright future ahead of you."

future?

What future can someone like her have?

She was arrested and brought here before she even finished her studies; her reputation in the entertainment industry is probably already ruined.

Staying here doesn't seem so bad.

Apart from…

Ye Nuan looked out the window, stretched out her hand, and could feel the bone-chilling cold.

It's winter, but it hasn't snowed in Kyoto yet.

I heard it snowed in Wenzhou…

When snow blankets the capital, will she be able to wait for her beloved to return?

Ye Nuan stood there for a long time before slowly walking towards the flowers on the table. It was a bouquet of carnations, blooming vibrantly. She didn't like carnations; she had never said so. She remembered every bouquet of flowers Duan Ye had given her.

The first bouquet is jasmine.

That winter, a small greeting card was tucked inside the flower.

"I send you jasmine, hoping you will never leave me."

Since then, Ye Nuan has really liked jasmine.

"I miss you..." she murmured softly, unheard by anyone but the square walls and the cold wind blowing in.

Duan Ye, far away in Wenzhou, couldn't help but sneeze.

They are at the airport right now.

Tiger was escorted to the airport. Duan Ze was doing a simple handover with the people in Kyoto, while Duan Ye, having successfully made his exit, waited quietly in the back.

Behind him were three followers.

Duan Ye rubbed his nose: "In this freezing weather, does anyone think I'm missing?"

Luo An rolled his eyes: "Boss, I admit you're handsome, but can you stop being so narcissistic?"

Xiao Wu and John both nodded in agreement.

Duan Ye: "..."

"Tsk, the tragedy of you single dogs..."

And so, everyone chatted as they watched the plane take off and disappear into the darkness of the night.

The airport was under tight control; at a glance, all you could see were tall men, about 1.8 meters tall, carrying weapons, exuding an air of authority.

Xiao Wu was truly envious.

After the escort plane took off, two more planes followed behind.

Duan Ye sighed, "Now, we should consider this halfway over..."

Duan Ze walked over here: "Now, we're just waiting for my sister-in-law's transfer order."

Without a transfer order, they can't leave.

Both Duan Ze and Duan Ye wanted Liang Mo to return to Kyoto to find a good hospital to give birth.

If this drags on, the snow will get thicker and thicker, and even flights might not be able to take off. They aren't too worried about being delayed, but everyone is very concerned about Liang Mo's safety.

Duan Ye patted Duan Ze on the shoulder: "Could you ask our grandpa to pull some strings..."

Duan Ze glanced at him: "Do you think your sister-in-law is willing?"

Duan Ye deflated: "Fine."

"What about your older brother? Will he be able to get back before your sister-in-law gives birth?"

Duan Ze: "Who knows? Anyway, there's still no news..."

Since we parted ways in Kyoto, not a single word has come back to me.

Duan Ye and Duan Ze both felt a little uneasy, but they couldn't quite put their finger on why.

Duan Ze: "Forget it, don't think about it anymore, let's go back."

And so, the two of them returned to the villa with their entourage.

As agreed, they waited for the transfer order. Every day, Duan Ye, along with Xiao Wu and the others, would come up with all sorts of bad ideas to attack the people Tiger Brother left in Wenzhou.

Duan Ze, on the other hand, was busy every day taking notes and conducting interrogations for the police. As a criminal investigation consultant in Kyoto, he almost turned Wenzhou into a criminal investigation team.

Finally, at the beginning of January, the transfer order came down.

Everyone was preparing to return to Kyoto, but due to the heavy snowfall, they were delayed by three days.

A group of people and two planes landed smoothly at the Beijing airport at 3 p.m.

Duan Ye and Luo Qingyuan helped the heavily pregnant Liang Mo off the plane, while Duan Ze carefully protected Shen Niannian.

Although Chen Niannian repeatedly said, "Oh dear, brother, I'm fine now, my belly isn't that big yet..."

Duan Ze: "What are you looking at me for? Watch where you're going..."

The snow in Beijing stopped two days ago, and the airport was cleaned up by the staff.

But as Duan Ye and the others stepped out of the airport, it started to snow lightly again, covering everyone's heads with a layer of white.

Duan Ye led his men to walk even faster.

Liang Mo glanced sideways, his gaze landing on a corner of the second-floor waiting area, where only a dress was fluttering in the wind, but no one was in sight.

Liang Mo gave his subordinate a wink, and someone immediately left.

Once Liang Mo got into the car, two more words appeared on his phone.

—Ye Nuan.

So Liang Mo put away his phone, and Luo Qingyuan happened to look over.

"I never expected that after finally coming back, it would be snowing here too. It's really quite cold."
