Chapter: 4998

As he spoke, he looked at his wife Chen Jun Mei and asked her, "What do you think, Jun Mei?"

Chen Jun Mei was taken aback for a moment before recovering and smiling. "Old Li, why don't we just put the whole $8 million into a trust instead? We can set up a short-term trust and take out 18% of it every year for the next 18 years until it's all gone. As for how to manage the money taken out, let's just leave it up to us."

Li Ailin was taken aback by his wife's suggestion, but soon realized that she had also noticed their children were taking the money a bit too seriously and didn't want to be directly responsible for managing it.

So he simply nodded and said, "Okay, then."

As he spoke, he added, "Oh, right. Let's hurry up and buy a house, I'll be going out of town in a few days to help with some things for my dad and Ms. Fee."

Chen Jun Mei quickly asked, "What kind of things? Is it safe?"

"Don't worry, it's just an investigation, nothing risky, you know Grandpa has a grandnephew who has been missing for a long time and he wants me to help find him again. It's just finding someone, no risk."

Chen Jun Mei finally relaxed her expression, looking at the already excited and out-of-control daughter-in-law and son-in-law, silently sighing and standing up to say, "Alright, Mr. Li, it's not early anymore, let's send the kids back first and we'll rest a bit earlier."

The daughter-in-law and son-in-law didn't think much of it, and since there were still many private conversations they wanted to have, they agreed without hesitation, bid each other farewell, and quickly drove back to their apartment in the city.

After sending off the happy couple, Chen Jun Mei saw Li Ailin looking a bit disheartened and downcast, so she couldn't help but ask softly, "What's wrong? Are you disappointed?"

Li Ailin forced a bitter smile: "A bit... a bit disappointing, but I also feel it's understandable, so I'm just more complicated."

Chen Jun Mei nodded slightly, speaking seriously, "Mr. Li, never test human nature, human nature is like this real world, small to the dust and large to the universe."

She changed the subject and spoke sternly: "But even in the universe, there are boundaries!"

Starting countdown When Ito Tomohiko and Tanaka Koji ran in Central Park wearing masks, Su Ruoli was with her parents, bidding farewell to Ye Chen with a thousand thanks before heading to the airport and returning to Jinling.

Meanwhile, Ye Chen stayed in New York for another two days, spending time with Ito Minako and other members of the Ito family. After Ito Minako left, Ye Chen gave an order to Wan Long's man-in-charge, instructing them to personally hand over the prohibited goods to Mara Aran's Zu Qiu Hua in New York.

Zu Qiu Hua's real name is Wen Su Ying. Recently, she has been with her boyfriend, following Mei Ju Zhen as a line person. Her main task is to impersonate Zu Qiu Hua and smuggle prohibited goods out of the country, handing them over to Mei Ju Zhen's designated middleman.

Although this woman hasn't killed anyone personally, she has indeed harmed many innocent victims while assisting Mei Ju Zhen. According to reason, she should be held accountable with her life.

However, considering she is a key factor in Ma Ran's release, Wan Long's men decided to spare her life.

As for her similarly evil boyfriend, he was already taken care of by Wan Long's soldiers and dumped in the desert near Las Vegas.

At the same time, Wan Long's soldiers also possessed Zu Qiu Hua's family information within China, which they used as leverage to demand she voluntarily confess all her crimes to the American police. Otherwise, not only would she be killed, but her family would have to pay the price.

Knowing she was in an impossible situation, Zu Qiu Hua dared not defy Wan Long's demands.

She knew that if she confessed to the American police, even though it was impossible for her to leave prison for the rest of her life, at least she could get back on the right track.

So, in this situation, she had no second option at all.

When Zu Qiu Hua was taken back to New York and reported to the NYPD, the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility, which was located far away from New York City, was just about to start serving lunch to its inmates.

According to the regulations of Bedford Hills Correctional Facility, before lunch begins, the guards will count each cell block once, then open the doors for all prisoners to go to the dining hall, eat their meals, and then head to the exercise yard for some fresh air. After exercising, everyone would return to their cells and have another headcount to confirm that no one was missing. JrNovels.com
