Chapter 268 Leaked
Tang Qiyue became somewhat curious after hearing the man repeat himself.

"Why are you so decisive?"

You should know that these people who carry out these missions only speak out when they suffer to the point of no return, and they would rather be killed than speak out.

But this person was too cooperative.

"Because I don't want to die, and I also know you're too special, it's better to cooperate than to be half-dead by you!"

Tang Qiyue: ...

He's someone who knows how to adapt to the times.

It also makes people feel very good.

Now that she already knew the outcome, there was no need for her to listen any further.

She readily removed the man's jaw back: "Don't blame me, I don't want to explain to him either. You'd better go back to normal!"

Under the man's angry gaze, Tang Qiyue calmly left the room.

The police officers at the entrance looked on with admiration.

He couldn't learn Tang Qiyue's technique of dislocating jaws.

Back in the lobby, it was still incredibly noisy, but Tang Qiyue didn't seem to mind. She picked up her teacup and told the police officers to go about their business while she quietly waited for Zhan Zeye to return.

However, he was thinking about the news he had just received.

That's really impressive.

She knew that what she had taken out, and the large-scale operation on the island, would not remain a secret forever, but she never expected so much to be leaked.

The problem is that we don't yet know how serious the consequences will be.

If it's good news, she can pretend not to know, but if it's bad news, she doesn't mind killing a few more people.

Blood can often bring someone back to their senses.

Tang Qiyue clearly understood this principle.

In a good mood, she continued listening to the gossip.

Zhan Zeye and Gu Yanting were not idle either; they took a car to a house.

The security level inside is very high, with guards every few steps, just in case someone breaches the defenses.

Zhan Zeye clicked his tongue in astonishment: "I was wondering how afraid of death the person behind you is? Why are you being so cautious?"

Gu Yanting told him to shut up.

Why are they always so unscrupulous?

They're not young anymore, yet they still can't learn it.

"If you don't want to get into trouble, behave yourself and be polite to people!"

Knowing too much about Zhan Zeye meant I didn't want anything to happen to him.

Zhan Zeye shrugged; he would decide whether to cooperate based on the situation.

He's not stupid; who knows if he can actually do it?

Neither Zhan Zeye nor Gu Yanting told anyone what happened at the meeting. Even when Zhan Zeye returned home, he only told Tang Qiyue, "I met a comrade-in-arms, nothing happened!"

Tang Qiyue did not press the matter further.

She knew Zhan Zeye's character very well. The fact that he could say that meant that the person was not someone who could be easily revealed, and that there was even a great risk of implicating Tang Qiyue as well.

Fortunately, Tang Qiyue didn't pay attention to such things.

Thinking about what she'd learned during today's interrogation, she still reminded everyone, "Safety first, there's no need to worry about so much!" Now, even if someone wanted to cause her trouble, they'd have to see if they could control her.

Zhan Zeye clearly understood these things as well.

The two exchanged a smile and did not continue the topic.

Now that I'm back, I should spend more time with Zhan's mother and try to persuade her to go to the island.

Zhan's mother still didn't want to leave, but Tang Qiyue told her, "Chunying is too busy taking care of three children. She doesn't even have time to find a partner. We need you to come and help!"

The main reason is that Zhan's children are all grown up and don't really need Zhan's mother to take care of them all the time.

Another issue is that Sister-in-law Zhan has been wanting her child to move to Zhan's mother's place because of the house. It's not only cramped but also uncomfortable for the whole family to live together.

If Zhan's mother could leave with Zhan Zeye, wouldn't that mean her children would have rooms?
Sister-in-law Zhan persuaded Brother Zhan, and Mother Zhan understood as well.

The eldest daughter-in-law was afraid that she would become a burden when she got old, so she took this opportunity to let her leave.

She didn't want her eldest daughter-in-law to succeed, but she was also worried that her youngest daughter's marriage and the triplets would cause trouble if no one was watching them, causing her son and daughter-in-law a lot of trouble.

He eventually agreed to go to the island, but warned Brother Zhan: "You can stay in the house, but you're not allowed to use my room!"

Chunying is getting married, so the room doesn't need to be kept. Zhan Zeye will probably come back very rarely in the future, so it doesn't matter.

However, since the house still belongs to Zhan Mu, she naturally doesn't intend for her eldest son and daughter-in-law to take it over.

Sister-in-law Zhan didn't care about any of that. As long as it was habitable, who knew what the future held?

In fact, she was well aware that she had such a capable brother-in-law as Zhan Zeye, and that they received preferential treatment at work. She wasn't so heartless as to embezzle everything.

When the children grow up and get jobs, they will naturally have dormitories, and they won't need to be as crowded as they are now.

Everyone had their own ulterior motives, but fortunately, they all achieved what they wanted.

Because Zhan's mother had agreed to go to the island, Zhan Zeyi and Tang Qiyue discussed that once they finished their business at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, they would come and pick up Zhan's mother to leave together.

Zhan's mother also had time to say goodbye to her old friends and neighbors, and also to prepare some things and tidy up the house. It was a good thing that she didn't have to rush things.

Zhan Zeye and Tang Qiyue did not linger and went to meet with the experts from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences the next day.

After they left, Gu Yanting went to find Zhan Zeye again, but found no one there. He couldn't help but curse Zhan Zeye inwardly for being unreliable, not even bothering to send a message before leaving.

Fortunately, knowing that Zhan Zeye would be coming back, he wasn't in such a hurry.

Leaving aside how upset Gu Yanting was by Zhan Zeye's sudden departure, after Tang Qiyue and Zhan Zeye met with the experts from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Zhan Zeye had nothing to do.

He couldn't help in any way, and could only chat with the local person in charge of accompanying him.

Tang Qiyue and the veteran experts were extremely busy every day.

Tang Qiyue was only allowed to proceed after the test results came out.

Since almost a month had passed, Tang Qiyue and Zhan Zeye went back to pick up Zhan's mother without stopping.

They've been gone for almost a month and don't know how the children are doing. They're even more worried about what's happening on the island.

Unfortunately, upon returning home, Zhan Zeye was taken away by Gu Yanting, who had been lying in wait for him for many days. Even though Tang Qiyue was anxious, she could only comfort Zhan's mother and wait for Zhan Zeye to return.

Fortunately, she still needed to make purchases, which relieved a lot of her anxiety.

Zhanmu did have a son who was a soldier, and a very capable one at that; he was quite perceptive.

"July, when you told your mother, why did that guy take Ono away? Did something happen?"

The old lady was full of worry; even when she went out with Tang Qiyue to buy things for their trip to the island, she couldn't rest easy.

Tang Qiyue knew that telling Zhan's mother too much would only increase her psychological burden, so she avoided the main point and said, "Gu Yanting is Zhan Zeye's comrade-in-arms. The two of them want to help the families of those fallen soldiers!"

Zhan's mother didn't believe her. She sighed, "You all only report good news and never bad. Do you think you can fool this old woman like me?"
