These people already have all of Chen Meng's past information. "Her husband used to work at a pharmaceutical factory, but he's in jail now for embezzling factory funds. She also has a daughter who was a sent-down youth and is now a military wife. Should we inform her daughter?"

"Let's not notify her yet. Her daughter won't be able to help if she finds out. The more people who know, the greater the risk of the operation being leaked. If the operation fails, there's even less need to tell her daughter, so she won't be saddened by the reality. If it succeeds and the person is rescued, her daughter will be even happier to see her mother."

Meanwhile, on a small island hundreds of kilometers from the capital of the island nation, a forty-year-old woman in a dark and damp "cell" could only see the sky outside through a window a dozen inches wide and fitted with iron bars.

By all accounts, she has been here for almost twenty years.

From the moment she was captured by those islanders, they made her work for them, developing medicines for their people.

Of course she knew that these islanders were heinous criminals and that she hated them deeply. So why would she develop drugs for them?

She also knew that these people were ruthless and capable of doing anything vicious to achieve their goals.

But she wasn't afraid.

For the past twenty years, they have used all sorts of methods against her, including bribes, various horrific physical tortures, and severe mental torment. She has always remained true to herself and refused to become a traitor or a puppet controlled by the Japanese.

She could have ended her life, which would have both demoralized her enemies and freed her from the torment of suffering.

But then she thought of her daughter, her little angel. What would happen to her daughter if she left?

She cannot die; she must go back to see her daughter and watch her grow up. She must live on strongly.

Later, because she refused to cooperate with those beasts, one of the leaders got so angry that he grabbed her hair and slammed his head against the wall.

Even so, she did not die; instead, she unlocked memories that had been sealed away for a long time.

She then discovered that his name was not Chen Meng, but Dong Lianxin. She regained some memories, but also lost some, but she never forgot her daughter.

More than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. No matter how the other party tortures her, she will not cooperate in the slightest. As long as the other party can't torture her to death, she will stubbornly live on. Perhaps one day she can escape from here, return to the land she loves, and see her family again.

In the pitch-black night, she looked out at the night sky through that small window.

One star shone particularly brightly, and as she looked at it, she seemed to see the innocent face of her three-year-old daughter.

Her daughter gave her the warmest and cutest smile, "Mom, I'm waiting for you to come home, please come back soon!"

"Qingyan, my good daughter. Wait for Mommy, Mommy will be back soon."

But every time she finished saying that, her smile would vanish in an instant, as if foreshadowing that she would never be able to go home and never see her daughter again.

But she still refused to give up; as long as there was a glimmer of hope, she would persevere.

...

Five days later, Lu Zhengting received orders from his superiors to go to the island nation to rescue an important scientist. After learning some information about the scientist, he realized that the scientist they needed to rescue was actually his wife's mother, and also his mother-in-law.

His wife would be overjoyed to know that his mother is still alive.

But he couldn't tell her the details of the mission, nor could he tell her that his mother-in-law was still alive.

Although he couldn't reveal the specifics of the mission, he could tell his wife that he was going on a mission.

He had just returned home and hadn't even had a chance to tell his wife that he was going on a mission when he heard retching coming from the bathroom. He recognized Lin Qingyan's voice and his brows furrowed instantly. Was his wife feeling unwell?

Soon, Lin Qingyan came out of the restroom, patting her chest, looking somewhat haggard.

"young married woman."

Before he could even reach Lin Qingyan, Granny Lin and Old Master Dong, who were closer, went over first.

"Girl, are you having an upset stomach?"

Actually, Grandma Lin was thinking about other possibilities, but Lin Qingyan had told her privately that she didn't want children yet and had been taking precautions, so she probably wasn't pregnant.

Grandpa Dong was even more confused. "Qingyan, do you have a fever? Do you have a cold? Is there anything else that's bothering you? Can you treat yourself? If not, we'll go to the hospital and have another doctor treat you."

As a doctor, Lin Qingyan naturally knew exactly what was going on.

There is already a baby in her belly.

Becoming a mother for the first time brought her both panic and joy.

At the same time, he also wanted to grab Lu Zhengting and punch him hard twice.

They've always used protection, so how did she get pregnant?

"Grandma, Grandpa, don't worry, I'm a doctor, I know I'll be fine."

Lu Zhengting, like Grandpa Dong, was also clueless about what was going on. He walked over with a serious expression and said, "Wife, if you're not feeling well, please don't push yourself. I'll take you to the hospital."

He said he was about to push his bicycle to take Lin Qingyan to the hospital.
