Chapter 401: Rendezvous with the Main Base
The journey that was supposed to take ten days stretched into thirteen before they finally arrived at the main base.
They didn’t need to enter the main base itself; they just had to wait for the main base’s team to come out and join them for the road ahead.
They arrived at midnight, having deliberately chosen this time, and then the leaders of both bases held a meeting to determine the next steps.
Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng stood outside the main base, looking at it from a distance. They had been there before and it felt familiar. A lot had happened here, but those things weren’t important to them. What mattered was that Second Uncle and Second Aunt were fine and would be transferring with them.
They weren’t sure whether Second Uncle and Second Aunt were both there and in good health, so they also wanted to hit the road as soon as possible to ask their father.
In the wee hours, they received the message to depart, and they continued on their way. They needed to reach the next city before nine o’clock in the morning when the sunlight was not yet too strong. The main base was more than a five-hour drive from the next city.
This part of the journey was relatively smooth, and it was only seven o’clock in the morning when they arrived at the next city. The air was filled with the scent of earth, a cool and comfortable morning.
After stopping the cars, Gu Pan and her group went to look for Lu Jianguo.
Upon reaching Lu Jianguo’s vehicle, they saw Second Uncle Lu Jianshe and Second Aunt Su Qing there. The two of them hurried over and called out, "Second Uncle, Second Aunt."
Upon seeing Gu Pan, Su Qing came over and gave her a big hug, "Panpan, did you miss Second Aunt?"
