Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue turned her head and looked directly at Dongfang Tinglan. Her eyes were full of determination as she said, "Mom, I must go! That's my daughter. How can I sit here and wait with a clear conscience?"

If you and I were in the same situation, and I was the one who lost, would you sit and do nothing?

Dongfang Tinglan was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to refute.

If it were the missing person, Jian Yixue, she certainly wouldn't be sitting here peacefully during her postpartum confinement.

Thinking about this, she understood Jian Yixue's meaning, but...

Finally, Dongfang Tinglan sighed and said, "It was Mom who was selfish. Do whatever you want to do. Mom supports you."

Jian Yixue looked at Dongfang Tinglan, whose face was full of guilt, and said, "I know that Mom is worried about me, and you are thinking this way for my sake. I don't mean to blame you."

I just want to tell you that Lemon is my daughter, and I love her just as much. We are the same; we both love our daughters deeply.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Tinglan nodded, her eyes filled with tears.

Gong Beize stepped forward and put his arm around Dongfang Tinglan, then looked at Jian Yixue and said, "Do whatever you want to do. Your parents will always support you."

He understood his wife's thoughts very well; she felt sorry for Xue'er and also for Ningmeng.

However, compared to her granddaughter who was only a few days old, and compared to her own flesh and blood, the scales in her heart would naturally tip towards her daughter.

While it may be unfair to Lemon, it's only natural, and it's also part of the greatness of motherhood.

Neither the wife nor the daughter was wrong; the situation was simply due to their differing perspectives.

The reason he remained silent was that he knew his wife would eventually understand: she loved Xue'er, and Xue'er naturally loved Lemon too, to the point of being willing to give her life for it.

No one can stop a mother from saving her child, even if the other child is her own mother.

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue looked at Gong Beize and nodded deeply.

She was grateful for her father's understanding, and even if no one else understood, she would still try to save her daughter.

However, she would prefer to see the matter handled better.

Then, Jian Yixue looked at Ye Mohan. Ye Mohan's eyes were filled with helplessness, but he could only nod and say, "Mom and Dad have agreed, so what can I say? Do whatever you want, I'll listen to you."

...

An hour later.

On the hospital's rooftop helipad, a private plane took off from the capital and headed towards its destination in the United States.

A few hours later.

Country M, Saint-Namer County.

Two private jets landed at the airport one after the other. Jiang Xuanjin and his entourage got off the plane and left through a special passage. The outer protector and his group, looking disheveled, got off the plane and did not immediately return to Shennong Pavilion, but instead went back to his villa.

At this moment, having failed his mission, he was utterly ashamed and dared not return to Shennong Pavilion. He knew very well that if he went back like this, he would definitely face dire consequences.

He knew Qu Rui well. When he still had value in her eyes, she would naturally praise him to the skies, but once he lost his value, she could trample him into the mud.

Now he is someone who can be discarded at any time, and there may be even more cruel consequences.

He won't easily choose to go back unless he's forced to. Besides, failing once doesn't mean he'll always fail.

It just takes more time and consumes more manpower and resources.

But once the task is completed, the benefits will only increase.

The "nurse" who had followed him back looked at the outer protector who was sitting on the sofa without saying a word, his face looking somewhat gloomy and scary. She was a little scared but had no choice but to speak up.

"Outer Protector".

Upon hearing this, the outer protector glanced at the "nurse" before him and said coldly, "What are you doing?"

The "nurse" was startled. Realizing she was the one who had brought up the topic, she braced herself and asked, "Outer Protector, what's our next step? Should we inform the Sect Master?"

The outer protector interrupted with a grim face, "What did you say! That our mission failed and we need reinforcements?"

The nurse was too afraid to speak when asked.

The outer protector continued, "Don't think that you can return to the pavilion unscathed after failing the mission. Shennong Pavilion never supports useless people! Jiang Lie's fate is the best proof of that."

They can even abandon their bed partners, let alone incompetent people like them.

When Jiang Lie was mentioned, the nurse's expression froze.

Thinking about what happened a while ago, her face immediately turned pale, and she didn't know what to do.

She didn't want to die, so she looked at the outer protector and asked, "Then what should we do to make amends?"

The outer protector said, "Just keep going! So what if we fail once? I refuse to believe I can't do it! If we fail once, we'll try again; if we fail twice, we'll try three times!"

The nurse nodded upon hearing this.

The outer protector looked at the "nurse" in front of him. She was actually Lan Sha, his trusted confidante, whom he had specially arranged to work as an inside agent in the hospital for this mission.

He just didn't expect that a Cheng Yaojin would suddenly appear out of nowhere, putting him in a situation where the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

It's okay if he lost his chips. He went in disguise anyway, and as long as people don't know him well, they probably won't recognize him. It's not a big deal.

He was a little annoyed, though. He didn't know who had beaten him up so badly that he was still bruised and swollen, and even the slightest movement of his face would aggravate his wounds.

Thinking of this, the outer protector squinted and ordered, "Go and find out who attacked me last night!"

Once he finds him, he'll make sure he gets a taste of being beaten up too.

An hour later.

Lan Sha walked in, and the outer protector suddenly opened his eyes and looked at her, asking, "Who did this?"

Lan Sha's expression was somewhat unpleasant. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "I'm sorry, Master, we haven't been able to find out who did it. The location where they intercepted us was a blind spot in the surveillance, and it's as if they appeared out of thin air."

After hearing this, the outer protector frowned and said, "Useless!"

Lansha kept her head down and didn't say anything.

The outer protector seemed to be thinking something, his gaze dark and unreadable.

In the capital, in a blind spot of surveillance, and appearing out of nowhere, someone with such a large budget must not be an ordinary person.

Could it be that Ye Mohan already knew about his plan?

That doesn't make sense. If they knew, why would they let him succeed?

For a moment, the outer protector couldn't understand it at all.

Suddenly, he asked, "What's the situation at the hospital?"

Upon hearing this, Lansha naturally knew that her master was not asking about the hospital itself, but about the target of their operation.

He then said, "It is said that one baby has been found, but another is still missing."

That evening, Beijing time, a private helicopter appeared on the hospital rooftop and then quickly left. I suspect they might know something.
