Lan An cast his gaze on Su Yunling, feeling a bit confused. This person...her master?
But her master seems to be not yet an adult.
Lan An thought to himself, and his look at Su Yunling changed immediately.
Su Yunling didn’t notice Lan An’s gaze, but even if he did, he wouldn’t care. He turned his head to continue looking at Gu Zhiqi, hoping to get a less perfunctory answer from her.
Seeing the indifference and innocence in Gu Zhiqi’s eyes, Su Yunling had to ask another question, "How many days are we staying here?"
Gu Zhiqi thought for a moment and replied, "Three or four days."
She had already confirmed that the professors were taken to the new Luya Base, but the exact location was not yet clear.
This new base didn’t seem to be connected to the network, making it impossible to use the surveillance system to figure out the base’s defenses and layout, so they would need a day or two to understand and plan before taking action.
Besides, she hadn’t had a "coincidence encounter" with Jin Cenglv yet.
Hearing Gu Zhiqi’s answer, Su Yunling’s gaze deepened.
Thinking about the last time he ran into Gu Zhiqi at the Luya Base, Su Yunling had reason to suspect that this kid was here for the base.
"We’ll also be staying here for three or four days. If you need anything, you can contact me anytime." As Su Yunling spoke, he poured himself a cup of tea, then turned to Gu Zhiqi, "Where are you staying?"
Gu Zhiqi: "Huaixu Hotel."
Su Yunling was silent for two seconds before he continued, "What’s your room number?"
Gu Zhiqi replied, "808."
This kid seems to have a thing for room 808.
Su Yunling didn’t say another word, but Tang Yichen beside him spoke up, "So it’s Xiao Qi who booked room 808. No wonder I couldn’t book it."
This time, several teams came together. Tang Yichen had initially planned to book the entire 8th floor, but the manager said room 808 had been booked out without them knowing when.
Before anyone else could speak, Tang Yichen continued, "So, Xiao Qi, you decided to come to Virella before us?"
You see, the moment they confirmed they were coming to Virella yesterday, he called the manager here.
Gu Zhiqi nodded, "Probably."
After hearing Gu Zhiqi’s answer, Tang Yichen mumbled, "You both are amazing, really. If either of you mentioned coming to Virella, we could’ve come together."
Hearing Tang Yichen’s mumble, Su Yunling remained silent.
Every mission came with its own dangers; he didn’t think it was something worth mentioning.
Gu Zhiqi didn’t say anything either. She couldn’t say that by the time she received the mission trigger, they had already set off.
Besides, even if they hadn’t yet departed, she didn’t think there was any need to come together with them.
There was a moment of silence at the dinner table. Su Yunling took a sip of tea, then turned to Gu Zhiqi and said, "I’m staying in 809. If you need anything, you can find me anytime."
"Okay," Gu Zhiqi replied.
Lan An’s health wasn’t fully recovered; he couldn’t stay out in the wind for too long. After dinner, the two of them bid farewell to Gu Zhiqi and returned to the hotel.
Gu Zhiqi wanted to go shopping, so Su Yunling went with her while Tang Yichen excused himself and returned to the hotel.
What Gu Zhiqi called shopping was actually buying food. She bought everything that looked tasty.
Su Yunling followed beside her to pay for everything. Gu Zhiqi initially intended to pay herself, but Su Yunling always beat her to it.
After it happened a few times, Gu Zhiqi let him take over.
