Chapter 1040: Chapter 1042: You’re Going to Be a Dad—Are You Happy?
The next day, Chen Bin arrived at the task force’s office location.
He called Zheng Junjie aside and talked about the possibility of a mole in the task force.
Upon learning this, Zheng Junjie quickly patted his chest in assurance.
He promised to handle this matter and would definitely root out the mole in time.
Chen Bin originally intended to discuss this with Ju Jun and planned to conduct an internal investigation in the Security Department as soon as possible.
However, considering Ju Jun’s term was about to end, with a new minister taking office after the Spring Festival,
even if he informed Ju Jun, it was likely Ju Jun would be reluctant to offend anyone at this time.
Meanwhile, Ma Anna also met with Firefox.
Firefox was equally shocked upon learning that Cheng Yan was a traitor.
However, he did not intend to act directly but instructed Ma Anna to investigate first to see if the core samples were still with Cheng Yan.
At the same time, he urged Night Charm to step up efforts, aiming to steal all formulas related to the core samples from the Thermodynamics Institute before the end of the month.
After returning, Ma Anna first sent Xiao Yaxin to search Cheng Yan’s residence.

However, they found absolutely nothing.
So she decided to go to the hospital again to probe Cheng Yan’s mindset.
"I’ve been quite busy lately and haven’t had time to visit you. How’s your recovery going?"
Cheng Yan replied, "I’m recovering quite quickly. The doctor said I’d probably be discharged in two days."
"Alright, then, you better hurry back to the company to help out when you’re discharged. Something major has happened recently."
"What major event?"
"The core samples were stolen!"
While speaking, Ma Anna fixed her eyes intently on Cheng Yan.
The latter was genuinely shocked, "Oh my God, something like this happened? Who did it?"
"I don’t know yet, we haven’t found out. However, we have already obtained the formula for the core samples and are currently arranging for people to conduct experiments. If all goes well, we should have results in three days."
"Is that so? That’s wonderful!"
Although Cheng Yan said this, he was harboring other plans in his mind.
Two days later, he was discharged immediately and returned to work.
Ma Anna seemed very surprised, "Didn’t you say it would take a few more days to be discharged? Why did you come back to work so soon?"
"You said the company was busy, so I rushed back to assist you. Alright, I won’t talk to you any longer, I’ll go see if there is any work that needs handling."
Looking at Cheng Yan’s departing figure, Ma Anna’s expression turned very cold.
As expected, she had used a ploy to lure the snake out of its hole, and the traitor had lost his composure.
After leaving Ma Anna’s office, Cheng Yan immediately went to Lab B.
After swiping his card and entering, he found several Beautiful Country chemical experts engrossed in their experiments.
He didn’t dare to disturb them, just glanced a few times before leaving.

That night, two figures rapidly appeared in the MA Company’s office building.
Soon, they came down from the building.
They then drove off in two different cars, heading in completely different directions.
One of the sedans hadn’t gone far before it was stopped by the police.
After showing their documents, the police conducted a security check on the car.
But finding nothing inside, they eventually had to let it pass.
After Cheng Yan returned home, he immediately went to bed.
Meanwhile, a car slowly parked beside his vehicle.
Ma Anna used a key to open Cheng Yan’s car door and began inspecting it with Xiao Yaxin.
Cheng Yan had previously stolen the core samples, and this time he dared to act again, indicating he planned to steal Core Sample No. 2.
Unfortunately, Ma Anna had already handed the items to Firefox, so he was destined to gain nothing.
However, after a thorough search, the two found absolutely nothing, and finally, they could only drive away.
The next morning, as soon as Cheng Yan drove away from the neighborhood, Xiao Yaxin once again searched his house.
Finally, in a hidden compartment under the bed, they found the data of last night’s stolen core samples, but nothing else was found.
After learning of this, Ma Anna instructed her to continue tracking Cheng Yan.
However, a week passed silently, yet there was still no breakthrough.
Ma Anna decided to have Night Charm act immediately to re-steal the experiment data from the Thermodynamics Institute.
But just as Night Charm began her operation, someone from the task force exclaimed.
"Look quickly, this guy has finally acted!"
After a series of operations, they were finally able to track Night Charm’s IP address, surprisingly, to Ma Anna’s house!
Clearly, Ma Anna was not Night Charm; otherwise, Chen Bin would have noticed when he checked her computer last time.
If that’s the case, the real Night Charm can only be Xiao Yaxin.
Upon receiving this information, Zheng Junjie immediately called Chen Bin.
After reporting the situation, he then asked, "Should we take action?"
Chen Bin replied, "Let’s wait a little longer, we’re still missing one piece – Firefox. Once we figure out his identity, we can catch them all in one go!"
Xiao Yaxin soon realized she had been exposed and immediately reported the situation to Ma Anna.

The latter instructed her to leave quickly and wait at the secret base.
Now that Xiao Yaxin had failed, Ma Anna felt the urgent need to leave.
Returning to the Beautiful Country, she could then execute the ultimate plan.
Before leaving, Ma Anna went to see Firefox again.
After she reported her work, he handed her a specially made cellphone card.
Instructing Ma Anna to leave tonight, and that she could use this card to contact him in the future.
By the time she returned to the company, it was already four-thirty in the afternoon.
Ma Anna first called Cheng Yan, instructing him to remain in the office after work as there was an important mission that night.
She then contacted Chen Bin and called him to her office.
As soon as Chen Bin entered, he immediately asked, "What’s the matter?"
Ma Anna walked right up to him and embraced him, her face earnest as she asked,
"Darling, do you love me?"
Sighing, Chen Bin looked a bit helpless.
"What, don’t tell me you want to test me again?"
"No! I just want to hear it from you, do you love me or not?"
Chen Bin tightly hugged Ma Anna’s slim waist, answering sincerely,
"I love you, you’re the only one I’ll ever love in this lifetime!"
Ma Anna took Chen Bin’s big hand and gently placed it on her belly.
"I... I’m pregnant."
"What? Really?"
"Of course, it’s true! You’re going to be a dad, aren’t you happy?"

"I’m thrilled, I couldn’t be happier! Darling, I absolutely adore you!"
Chen Bin hugged Ma Anna tightly, his expression extremely excited.
But in his mind, calculations were running rapidly, evaluating if this truth or a ruse.
Meanwhile, Ma Anna’s voice echoed again.
"Now that we have our baby, can you do something for me right away?"
"Your concern is my concern, as long as it’s achievable, I’ll surely help!"
While speaking, Chen Bin’s hand slipped under Ma Anna’s clothes, softly caressing her smooth belly.
"The head of that smuggling ring wants to meet with you; it seems they might try to threaten you into smuggling an important batch of goods. I feel this continuous tension isn’t the solution; why not get rid of him while meeting tonight?"
"How do you propose we do that?"
Ma Anna didn’t speak but simply made a throat-slitting gesture.
Seeing this, Chen Bin looked utterly terrified.
"Can... Can this really work?"
