"Make the arrangements. Don't let any of Ye Wenyao's properties in Country Y go untouched. Within three days, I want Ye Wenyao penniless. Also—prepare the car, let's go meet my 'good second uncle'!"
After saying that, Ye Mohan left the study.
Lin Yi nodded respectfully after listening, and then followed Ye Mohan away.

In the bedroom
When Jian Yixue woke up, half-asleep, she reached out to touch the other side of the bed, only to find nothing, as expected.
There wasn't a soul around, not even a hint of warmth.
Wearing a mask of pain, Jian Yixue forced herself to open her eyes and saw that Mo Han was no longer following her on the other side of the bed.
Without much thought, she knew that Ye Mohan must have gone to do something else.
Turning her head to pick up her phone from the bed, she saw a message sent in advance by Ye Mohan on the screen.
"I'm going to get busy now. Remember to eat when you wake up."
Looking at these extremely simple words, Jian Yixue felt a touch of sweetness in her ordinary life.
These simple words contain boundless care and love, which is the most precious thing in life.
A faint smile appeared on Jian Yixue's face as she sat cross-legged on the bed, her hands gripping her phone tightly, composing a message and preparing to send it.
Suddenly, the thought of whether it would disturb Ye Mohan's work occurred to her. After a moment of contemplation, she deleted only a single "hmm" before sending it.
——
Meanwhile, Ye Mohan, who had already arrived at the Bolton Hotel, felt the vibration of his phone in his pocket. Just as he was about to get out of the car, he sat back down and elegantly took out his phone to check it.
Ye Mohan knew perfectly well that at this hour, he couldn't think of anyone else but Jian Yixue, who hadn't woken up before leaving home, who would send him a message.
Lin Yi stood by the car door, looking at Ye Mohan who had been about to get out but suddenly sat back down, and was momentarily confused about what was going on.
Then, when he saw Ye Mohan take out his phone to look at it, he noticed that Ye Mohan's originally fierce face had softened somewhat.
His confused little eyes darted around, then he suddenly realized something and understood.
He couldn't think of anyone other than his wife who could make the president care so much.
I didn't sleep all night, and now I'm being fed dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).
Lin Yi turned his head sensibly, his eyes wide open, and looked up at the sky.
Where is his true love?
It's so heartbreaking; he desperately needs true love to come and soothe his wounded heart.
Ye Mohan, who was in the car, had no time to care what Lin Yi was thinking; his eyes and heart were filled with Jian Yixue in the castle.
When Ye Mohan opened his phone and saw that the message Jian Yixue had sent was only one word long, the corners of his mouth, which had been slightly upturned, returned to their original position, and a trace of imperceptible disappointment flashed in his deep, dark eyes.
After a moment of silence, Ye Mohan dialed the phone.
Jian Yixue, who was browsing the news, was taken aback when she saw the call appear on the screen.
For a moment, I didn't understand why Ye Mohan had called.
Shouldn't he be busy at this time?
Confused, Jian Yixue answered the phone, but after a long silence from Ye Mohan, her doubts deepened. She frowned and asked, "Mohan?"
This time, nothing unexpected happened; the voice that Jian Yixue was thinking came from the other end of the phone.
"Um."
Ye Mohan held the phone, his expression somber.
Jian Yixue was puzzled by Ye Mohan's extremely simple reply.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Aside from this reason, Jian Yixue couldn't find any other reason why Ye Mohan had become so quiet. Judging from the tone of his voice, she could probably guess that Ye Mohan was feeling down.
Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan realized the emotions that had inexplicably arisen within him, and his brows furrowed instantly.
Thinking of the concern in Jian Yixue's words, he instantly felt relieved.
"It's okay, wait for me at home, I'll be back later."
When Jian Yixue heard Ye Mohan's words, she felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out what the problem was, so she had no choice but to give up.
He then replied casually, "Okay, bye-bye."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Mohan recalled the nonsensical emotions he had just experienced and felt a little displeased with himself.
He didn't know what was wrong with him just now, but when he saw Jian Yixue's simple one-word reply, he felt a strange sense of loss.
After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't understand where his emotions came from. His mind was filled with Jian Yixue's image, so he uncontrollably made a phone call to her.
Upon hearing Jian Yixue's concern, the strange emotions in his heart vanished instantly.
He knew that he wanted Jian Yixue's care and love, which is why he felt an unconcealable sense of loss when Jian Yixue only gave him a simple reply.
Unbeknownst to him, Jian Yixue had already become an indispensable part of his life, and her every word and action constantly affected all his emotions.
After figuring it out, Ye Mohan was in a great mood. He put away his phone and got out of the car.
Looking at the hotel in front of him, and thinking that there might be "acquaintances" who had harmed Jian Yixue living inside, his gaze instantly turned icy cold, and he was filled with an uncontrollable hostility. Then he stepped inside.
Upon seeing this, Lin Yi quickly followed Ye Mohan into the hotel.
...
Hotel Top Floor
There are two presidential suites on the top floor, each occupying half the area. They are usually not occupied, but a few days ago, someone suddenly moved in.
After finding Second Master's entry record from airport surveillance footage last night, Lin Yi began an investigation across various locations in the capital.
At first, Lin Yi never expected that Ye Wenyao would move into a property under the Ye family.
Finally, Lin Yi investigated various places but found no trace of Ye Wenyao. At the same time, he also knew about the grudges and entanglements between Ye Wenyao and the Ye family, especially Ye Mohan. Lin Yi was convinced that Ye Wenyao would not leave the capital after returning to the country.
Although he didn't know Ye Wenyao's purpose in returning to the country, he was certain that it was related to Ye Mohan and the Ye family.
After figuring out the intricacies of the situation, Lin Yi was able to arrange for people to conduct investigations in all the properties under the Ye family in the capital and under Ye Mohan's personal name.
The investigation results, sent back just before dawn, showed that Ye Wenyao's whereabouts were detected by surveillance cameras at the entrance of the Bolton Hotel.
Upon receiving the news, Lin Yi immediately sent a text message to Ye Mohan and then rushed to the castle to await Ye Mohan's instructions.
As the elevator doors opened, Lin Yi looked up and saw a whole row of bodyguards standing in the corridor, with one bodyguard every ten meters or so. This formation was maintained all the way to the door of the room at the end of the corridor.
Ye Mohan naturally saw it too. His eyes narrowed, and his expression showed a hint of displeasure. He then stepped out of the elevator and walked straight towards the room at the end of the corridor.
Lin Yi followed closely behind Ye Mohan, remaining vigilant about the dangers around them.
