Qiu Tong thought that Chen Jia would be the key to solving all the problems and doubts, but she didn’t expect the clues to stop again.

Jin Yang changed the password and redesigned the login verification method.

The sun slowly rose from the east. It emitted a warm light that illuminated every corner of the room through the thick clouds.

Qiu Tong wanted to go and comfort the children. She walked to the door and Jin Yang grabbed her elbow. “Let’s talk.”

The two of them sat on the edge of the bed. The slew of troubles made their expressions solemn.

Jin Yang rubbed Qiu Tong’s knuckles. “We might not be able to stay in this villa anymore.”

“We have no idea what forces are behind Chen Jia. The people who are chasing after Ye Luan might find this place at any time. Also, Lin Shan and Shu Xian, as well as the foreign forces targeting Professor Dong…”

“Although you and Qiu Xingyuan created an electric fence as a defense mechanism, it’s still not safe for us.”

Qiu Tong agreed with him. During the famine riot, the electric fence had not been able to stop the hooligans from the neighboring city, much less an enemy with high IQ and powerful firearms. Seeing that she was not objecting, Jin Yang continued to suggest, “I have a house in S City. It’s very secretive.”

“There are dozens of soldiers stationed there. They can protect the children.”

“Might as well move over for now and come back when things are settled.”

Jin Yang didn’t use a commanding tone. Instead, he asked for Qiu Tong’s opinion.

Qiu Tong paused for two seconds, then nodded after a moment of hesitation. “Thank you.”

Jin Yang hugged her and comforted her gently, “I know you have feelings for this place. Believe me, you will come back soon.”

After Qiu Tong and Jin Yang finished their discussion, she informed the children to pack up their things.

Ke Le wanted to go to the kindergarten to apply for leave for the children, but Qiu Tong stopped him.

She had two thick stacks of bills in her hand. “You’ve done very well during this period. I’m very grateful.”

“But we might face many dangers in the future. I don’t want to implicate you. I am going to another place this time and you can take up another job from the Dark Web. It’s best to find some easy jobs. Don’t go looking for troublesome employers like me anymore.”

Ke Le looked at the envelope in his hand and refused with a frown. “Boss, it’s our fault for letting Chen Jia escape.”

“Give us another chance. We will definitely bring her back!”

Ke Le was very emotional. His chest heaved up and down. Their conversation attracted the attention of the other mercenaries.

Qiu Tong patted his shoulder and said softly, “I’m not blaming you.”

“You’re all my friends. I don’t want… to see you get hurt because of me!”

Ke Le finally understood what she meant. He said with a stubborn and serious expression, “We don’t have any family or relatives. We accept missions in the Dark Web just to earn a living. Our previous employers treated us as tools. No one has ever treated us like family like you!”

“Over the past period, we’ve already treated you and the children as family!”

“Boss, we are willing to follow you if you don’t mind. Although we can’t compare to Mr. Jin Yang’s guards, we can still help you block a bullet at critical moments.”

Ke Le’s words filled Qiu Tong with gratitude. She sighed and gave in.

Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao tidied up the room. They looked at their own beds reluctantly before packing up their test tubes and sandbags. “Elder Brother, I didn’t expect us to have so much luggage!”

Little Yu ran in with red eyes. She wiped her snot with her hand. “I can’t bear to leave. There are so many memories of us and Mommy here!”

This was where the whole family had breakfast together for the first time, the first time they argued, the first time they reconciled… just as they were about to leave, all these memories surged up. Even Qiu Xingyuan, who usually hid his feelings deep in his heart, started to choke up.

Qiu Xingyuan patted Little Yu’s head comfortingly. “As long as we are with Mommy, we will create many new memories in the future.”

Qiu Xingyu raised her teary eyes. “Really?”

In the bedroom on the top floor, Qiu Tong was checking to see if there was anything left behind.

She looked up and saw a dust-covered luggage on top of the bedroom closet. Qiu Tong moved a stool over and dragged it down.

Dust floated in the air. Qiu Tong coughed twice and wiped away the dust.

The luggage contained many toys from when Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao were very young. Qiu Tong did not recognize any of them. Qiu Rong must have packed them. She sat by the bed and slowly looked through them. When she saw some yellowing photos at the bottom of the luggage, she could not help smiling.

“Auntie Qiu, Uncle Jin Yang asked how much longer would it take?”

Ye Luan ran in from outside. The sudden sound frightened Qiu Tong so much that she accidentally scattered the photos all over the ground.

Ye Luan hurriedly squatted down to help her tidy up.

When he picked up one of the photos, he suddenly stood rooted to the ground.
