After breakfast, Gu Shaoze prepared several bottles of water and a bag of crystal cores for the Rong siblings.
He held his girlfriend's hand and said, "Mo'er, be careful when you go out. Remember, no matter what the situation is, your safety comes first."
"I understand," Rong Mo'er nodded. After a brief pause, she added, "You have to be careful too."
"Okay."
After exchanging a few more words, they left the house together but went in opposite directions. The Rong siblings reported to the base's mission hall, while Gu Shaoze headed to the base's gate to meet up with Xun Che's team.
When he arrived at the base entrance, the sun had already risen on the eastern horizon. As he walked out of the base, he was surprised to see Xun Che present. Judging from his uniform, it seemed that he planned to join them on this mission.
Noticing him walking over, Xun Che smiled and said, "Good morning, Comrade Gu."
