Hearing her daughter recite Chen Sanmei's name, Lin Cuicui frowned. "Daughter, Chen Sanmei doesn't seem to be lying. She looked very anxious at the time, like she had just found out."
Tang Yue's eyes were dark and unsettling. "Even if she just found out, doesn't she know about your health condition? Knowing how big your belly is, she still said those things at this time. It's obvious she had ulterior motives."
Lin Cuicui didn't know how to refute it, but she knew Chen Sanmei, and she didn't think that little girl had much bad intentions. Sigh! She really didn't know what was going on.
Tang Yue didn't recognize this person. "Who is Chen Sanmei?"
"Ah, Yueyue, don't you know Chen Sanmei? She's Battalion Commander Chen's sister. I heard she came here with her mother half a year ago."
Lin Cuicui thought for a moment, "The other mothers don't know either."
Tang Yue didn't ask any more questions. "Mom, while Xixi is still asleep, you should get some more sleep."
Tang Yue came out of the house, and the three Tang brothers came to greet her.
"Little sister, is Mom alright?"
Tang Bei was a little worried; they had all heard their mother crying so loudly.
"Okay, it's alright now. I'll let Mom sleep a little longer."
The brothers pulled Tang Yue into their room. Tang Yue, who had originally intended to leave, sat on the bed, looking at her brothers with a puzzled expression.
Tang Bei spoke up again, "Little sister, are you going out to find Dad?"
Seeing Tang Yue nod, Tang Bei continued, "Let Dongzi go with you."
"no!"
"Yes, I'll go with you."
Tang Yue and Tang Dong spoke at the same time, and Tang Dong became a little anxious when he saw that Tang Yue disagreed.
"Little sister, you know I can protect myself and help you too."
Tang Yue shook her head again. Seeing that Tang Bei and Tang Nan were about to try to persuade her again, she quickly explained, "No, Third Brother, it's precisely because you have the strength now that I dare to go out with peace of mind."
The brothers all stared at Tang Yue, waiting for her to continue. Tang Yue continued, "Third brother, Mom's difficult childbirth this time wasn't an accident; someone did it on purpose. Think about it, who could it be?"
We've been on guard against those people. Just a few days ago they poisoned our food, and now they're trying to kill Mom and her unborn child. I don't dare go out unless there's someone in the family who can protect us.”
Tang Yue looked at Tang Dong and said, "Third Brother, the heavy responsibility of protecting our family now falls on your shoulders. Don't worry, I will definitely go and find Dad."
"But......."
Tang Dong was still conflicted. He wanted to help his sister, but he also felt that his sister was right and that the family compound was not entirely safe.
Tang Dong looked at the Tang brothers, Tang Bei and Tang Yue.
Tang Bei looked remorseful. If he hadn't been so useless and had also cultivated to the first level of Qi Refining, he could have gone out with his sister to protect her.
Tang Yue understood what her two brothers meant. She took Tang Bei and Tang Nan's hands and said, "Brothers, you are both great. I know you should have reached the critical point of the first level. Don't worry, I believe in you."
Tang Dong was still worried about his sister. "Sister, it's not safe for you to go out alone. Why don't I go with you? See if you can ask Battalion Commander Chang to send more men to check on us when there's nothing else to do."
Tang Yue shook her head. "Third brother, it only takes a moment for a bad person to do something bad. We can't take any chances. Third brother, even when I'm out, I'll still worry about home if you're not there."
Tang Dong thought about it and realized that he understood his sister's worries.
"Alright then! Little sister, you must be careful when you go out. Be cautious in everything you do, and never let a stranger take you away."
Tang Yue smiled and said, "It's getting late, brothers, you should get some rest."
Tang Yue went to meet up with Chang Yin and told him about Chen Sanmei.
Chang Yin was surprised that Tang Yue found out so quickly. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Wait here for me for a while. I'll be back in a bit."
After saying that, Chang Yin left, but he returned very quickly, about ten minutes later.
The two went to the underground research lab together. On the way, "Commander, I think if the underground lab isn't working out, let's try another place. Those spies might have already gotten some leads."
Chang Yin kept his eyes fixed ahead, but he agreed with Tang Yue's assessment. During the daytime interrogation, the Japanese spies confessed that they had discovered Chang Yin frequently drove to the beach, suggesting there might be some secret there. They hadn't yet traced the scrap metal yard.
"Yes, I've already spoken to Commander Kang, and the relocation will take place soon."
Tang Yue felt relieved. The people in the underground research lab were all senior national scientific experts, each a national treasure. Any incident involving any one of them would be a huge loss to the country, let alone an incident involving them all.
Commander Kang's thinking was quite thorough.
What Tang Yue didn't know was that these researchers were involved in all aspects of scientific research in China, and they were all the experts that China had secretly kept hidden away. Their importance was evident.
Tang Yue arrived, and the people in Lab 5 quickly gathered around. Although they were underground, they were well-informed. They already knew that Tang Yue's father was missing and that her mother had suffered a difficult childbirth after finding out.
As soon as Tang Yue entered the room, Shao Yan and the others quickly surrounded her, asking all sorts of questions, "Little Yueyue, what brings you here? Is your mother alright?"
"Little Yueyue, is your mother alright?"
"Little Yueyue, why didn't you stay home a couple more days?"
"Little Yueyue, you..."
Suddenly, Tang Yue's somewhat anxious and aloof heart was strangely soothed. She smiled and answered everyone's questions one by one. Only then did she explain that she would be away from the lab for a while and would not be coming to the research lab during that time.
