Originally, the Fire Phoenix members intended to stay at Ye Cunxin's house until evening and then wait for dark to carry out their mission. Knowing that her mother usually didn't come home until past ten o'clock at night, Cunxin hadn't notified her in advance. Upon seeing He Wenjie, though she felt a strong curiosity about what kind of mission her mother and He Wenjie were carrying out together, she was well aware of the importance of confidentiality discipline and managed to suppress her curiosity firmly.
Just as everyone was preparing to leave, President Zhang suddenly walked in accompanied by a woman. Knowing yesterday that He Wenjie was leaving today, Zhang Haiyan hadn't given him advance notice when she brought someone back with her. Stepping through the door and seeing so many people, she assumed He Wenjie had suddenly changed his mind and come to arrest her, and her face instantly turned pale. But when she saw clearly that these people were her daughter's comrades-in-arms, she realized she had misunderstood. Composing herself, she asked, "Cunxin, what is all this?"
Ye Cunxin walked over and hugged her mother. "Mom, there's a battle going on outside. We're hiding here for a bit, and soon we're heading out to execute a mission."
