"Mingi, calm down!"
Su Yiru caught up, grabbing the emotionally charged Ye Mingi, took a deep breath before speaking, "You say you want to find him, but you know Yu Xiuzhun from the past, not Bai Zheng now. Where do you plan to find him? Do you know where he lives now? Who are the people around him?"
"..."
Ye Mingi’s body stiffened, and a hint of desolation surfaced in her eyes.
Yes, she didn’t even know if Bai Zheng was Yu Xiuzhun, let alone where he lived, where could she possibly find him?
"I overheard your dad on the phone; he is also keeping an eye on this person and is having soone investigate. Your dad’s health isn’t good; he’s already in bed. You should wait, ask him when it’s daylight tomorrow, and then decide."
Su Yiru patted Ye Mingi’s hand, "It’s late. If you won’t consider yourself, you should think about ii. If you collapse, what will happen to her, a three-year-old child?"
"..."
Thinking of her daughter’s pure, innocent face, Ye Mingi’s fingers grew cold inch by inch, the earlier agitation vanished without a trace.
She turned around, stiffly walked toward her room.
Her straight back, desperately concealing her sadness, only accentuated her loneliness.
Not until she entered the room, did she dare to cry out loud.
"Mommy..."
ii’s small figure erged from the quilt, rubbing her sleepy eyes, looking at Ye Mingi leaning against the door.
Ye Mingi realized she had woken ii, hurriedly wiped her tears, pretended nothing was wrong, walked to the bedside, and caressed ii’s delicate little face.
"I’m sorry, did Mommy wake you up?"
ii shook her head obediently, "Mommy is hurting? If I kiss it, it won’t hurt anymore."
As ii spoke, she puckered her little lips, leaned in to kiss Ye Mingi’s cheek, her soft hands holding Ye Mingi’s face, earnestly consoling.
"Mommy don’t worry, ii will grow up soon, then I can protect Mommy!"
"..."
The tears Ye Mingi had barely held back surged again.
Seeing ii, so understanding at such a young age, she felt indescribable emotions.
She pulled ii into her embrace, her big hand rubbing ii’s little head, "Mommy is fine, you go to sleep, when you wake up, Mr. Jin will co to take you to the amusent park."
"Then Mommy sleeps too." ii shifted her tiny bottom, making space beside her.
"Okay." Ye Mingi’s eyes flickered, she lay down beside her, reached out and turned off all the lights in the room, leaving only a dim night light.
Not knowing how long had passed, she gradually heard the sound of steady breathing, Ye Mingi turned on the bedside lamp, looked at the sleeping ii, then gently sat up.
Her mind replayed Su Yiru’s words, she couldn’t calm down at all, let alone sleep.
Ye Mingi tiptoed to lift the blanket and get out of bed, took a pillow, and silently walked to the balcony.
Leaning on the tatami on the balcony, quietly gazing at the night sky, waiting for dawn.
After looking for a while, she suddenly felt her eyelids grow heavy, and unknowingly, she drifted off to sleep.
In the dense night, a shadowy figure slowly appeared, deep gaze fixed firmly on Ye Mingi sleeping on the tatami.
Looking at her slender body, curled up in a helpless sleeping position, Bai Zheng’s heart clenched tightly.
