Chu Sheng disliked stains on other people's clothes, so he mandated that the servants in the villa must shower and wash their clothes every day, and ensure that their clothes were completely free of stains.

"Thank you, young master."

Wen Mian forced a smile that looked more like a grimace as he watched Chu Yunmu leave.

For Yunmu's sake, and for his own, he had to do something.

The Chu family had been kind to him, but he had to protect his child; it was his duty as a father.

After making coffee, Chu Yunmu strolled around the villa and soon realized that someone was following and monitoring him.

Walking onto a secluded path, Chu Yunmu slowly turned around. The person behind her instinctively turned away to avoid her gaze, pretending to admire the scenery.

"What do you want after following me for so long?"

"Shh...shh..." The stalker whistled nervously, looking around as if trying his best to play the role of someone admiring the flowers.

"Stop acting, I'm talking about you."

Chu Yunmu slowly approached, then swiftly and decisively tackled the man to the ground.

"Awooo... General Chu, have mercy! Have mercy!"

"Who sent you?"

Chu Yunmu was a little confused. What general? Oh, right, he and Yu Wei were both in the Allied Army.

"Chairman..."

Chu Yunmu tilted her head, loosening her grip slightly. "How can you prove it?"

"You can see my identification..."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunmu ripped open the man's clothes, and when she saw the tattoo on his shoulder, she slowly released him.

All members of the Alliance army have a unique symbol tattoo on their left shoulder, which is different for each unit. The Tracker is a scout.

The symbol on this person's shoulder is the same as his, so he must be one of their own.

Why are you following me?

"The Chairman sent people to monitor all the residences of the Chu and Zhou families. I received the news when you left the Zhou family."

The scout rubbed his shoulder. He had been careless. He hadn't expected that General Chu, who looked so gentle, could hit people harder than General Yu.

"I'm sorry, I thought you were..." someone Chu Sheng sent to spy on me.

Chu Yunmu couldn't bring himself to say what followed. His father considered him an enemy, and no one would believe him if he told them.

"It's alright, it's alright." The scout waved his hand and took out a necklace from his pocket. "This is a miniature communicator. The Chairman told each of us to carry one. I'll give it to you when we meet."

"Thanks."

Chu Yunmu took the necklace and put it on. Although she couldn't quite remember who the chairman was, he should be a good person.

"You don't need to call me general. I have left the troops without permission for so long without returning and without reporting it. This is a serious violation of discipline."

I seem to recall there being such a rule; he often mentioned it when he was with Yu Wei.

"How could that be? The Chairman told us that you left on a secret mission and even sent us to secretly cooperate with your operation." In the eyes of the scouts, Chairman Yu Zhen was everything, and what he said must be true.

"Um."

Chu Yunmu nodded. Did this mean he wouldn't be punished?

To ensure that no accidents happen to those carrying out secret missions, they can decide their own return time without needing any reason.

"My mission is complete, time to head back." The scout brushed the grass clippings off his clothes. "General Chu, we look forward to your early return!"

"Thanks."

Chu Yunmu watched the scouts leave, touching the necklace around his neck. A warm feeling welled up in his heart. The chairman seemed to care about him a lot, actually taking care of everything for him and waiting for him to return. Compared to Chu Sheng, he was more like a father, a qualified and great father.

Chu Yunmu stayed until very late before returning to the Chu family villa. He couldn't leave yet; Zhang Rou was in great danger, and he couldn't abandon her.

"Dad, there's something I want to talk to you about..."

Chu Yunmu swallowed hard and mustered her courage to knock on the study door.

"Come in." Chu Sheng looked up from his documents, took off his glasses, and placed them on the table. "What do you want to talk about?"

"About Mom." Chu Yunmu took a deep breath, her voice trembling slightly, "I want to change Mom's hospital."

"The hospital's medical facilities and staffing are the best on the entire planet. Which one would you like to switch to?"

“The Alliance Military Region General Hospital,” Chu Yunmu said, gripping his arm tightly. “The medical standards there are higher, and Qin Ge is a renowned cardiologist in the Alliance…”

"You don't need to worry about your mother's affairs." Chu Sheng slammed the folder down and looked coldly at Chu Yunmu. "If there's nothing else, you can leave."

"I……"

"go out!"

Chu Sheng grabbed a document and threw it at Chu Yunmu's face, the sharp piece of paper cutting a small gash in his skin.

Chu Yunmu gritted her teeth, clenched her fists tightly at her sides, and turned to leave.

“Yunmu…”

Just as they reached the door, Chu Sheng called out to Chu Yunmu. Chu Yunmu instinctively turned around and was met with the dark muzzle of a gun.

Chu Sheng pulled the trigger, and Chu Yunmu felt as if something had bitten his neck. He clutched his neck and fell to the ground.

How could Chu Sheng possess such a powerful anesthetic?

"trouble."

Chu Sheng put away the tranquilizer gun, called over several tall, burly bodyguards in black, and waved his hand, "Take them away."

The lead bodyguard bowed, placed a briefcase on the table, and directed his men to lift the person and leave the villa through the back door.

When Chu Yunmu woke up again, the familiar ceiling and the face with dark circles under his eyes came into view.

Zhou Sijue rubbed his eyes, patted his face, and cheered himself up, helping Chu Yunmu sit up.
