Chapter 309 The Female Supporting Character's Husband is Going Bankrupt (29)
As soon as Chen Haoyu finished speaking, Luo Xian'er floated from the treetop into the cabin in front of him. There were several soldiers in the cabin, who stared at her but dared not speak.
Luo Xian'er was wearing a white top and black pants today. In the darkness of the night, the color of her pants was not very noticeable, making her look like a white shadow.
At night, anyone who sees a white shadow floating by would shiver.
"Thank you all for finding me. Driver, please remember this coordinate. We'll be back next time. Now, let's head back to base!"
After she finished speaking, someone in the darkness breathed a sigh of relief, and if you listened carefully, you could also hear "freedom, democracy..."
It seems she made a mistake again and scared people. Look how frightened these soldiers!
Back at the base, as soon as the helicopter door opened, Old Li, who had been waiting in the distance, darted out, his agile figure not at all like that of an elderly person.
"Xian'er, are you alright? You silly child, didn't I tell you not to go alone?"
Old Li couldn't hide the worry on his face.
"Uncle Li, don't worry, I'm fine,"
"Yeah, she's funny, holding a rabbit in her arms, making so many of us worry." A strange voice came from the side.
Luo Xian'er then noticed that there were several experts standing next to her.
"Still calling her a child? She's all grown up. Old Li still calls her a child. If my child were this insensible, I would have scolded her long ago..."
"We've been looking for her, and Teacher Shanyao still hasn't come back. She's ruined so many of our learning opportunities."
Just then, Shining Armor ran up from behind, a hint of panic showing on her usually calm face: "Cousin, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, sorry, cousin, I just got lost while walking." Not many people knew Shining Armor's identity, so he still addressed him as before.
As Luo Xian'er spoke, she glanced at the group of people who had been so assertive just moments before.
Those men felt guilty and dared not look her in the eye. They couldn't help but regret it: if they had known they had this kind of relationship, they would not have said anything. They wondered if Shining Armor had heard them.
Old Li snorted coldly. If these people weren't so professionally competent, he would have fired them long ago.
Seeing that Elder Li's expression was not good, Luo Xian'er thought that it was no use arguing with these people who had said so much. She had something very important to say.
"Uncle Li, I've found something really good in the forest. Would you like to talk here or in the office?"
"It's late at night, cold outside and visibility is poor, so of course we'll talk in my office."
After finishing his speech, Old Li said to the experts with a blank expression, "Thank you all for your hard work today. You may all leave now."
Mr. Li's office was quite simple; upon entering, one would see a desk with a computer on it.
There were a few stools in front of the table, and several cabinets for storing files behind the table.
"Please sit down. I don't usually come to the office; it's a bit simpler here."
After Luo Xian'er and Shan Yaojia sat down, "Xian'er, just say what's on your mind. You've both had a long day, so it's good to finish talking so you can get some rest sooner."
"Uncle Li, take a look at this!" Luo Xian'er opened her phone, found the video she had taken in the cave, played it, and pushed it in front of Yao Lao.
Mr. Li took the phone, initially somewhat puzzled. As the video played, his expression grew increasingly blank. When the three-minute video finished...
His hand holding the phone was a little unsteady: "Xian'er, this...this..." He was excited and wanted to confirm with Luo Xian'er.
“Uncle Li, this is why I came back late. I found this place.” She took her phone, but Old Li slapped it away.
"Xian'er, let me look at it one more time," Old Li said, protecting his phone as if afraid she would take it away.
"Uncle Li, I'm forwarding the video to you. Can you watch it slowly? I want to go back to my dorm to sleep. I'm so tired. Look how soundly my rabbit is sleeping."
"Alright, you'll take us there tomorrow. You go back and get some rest!" Old Li reluctantly handed the phone back to Luo Xian'er.
She quickly sent the video to Mr. Li. Looking at his somewhat haggard face, she realized that he was not yet of retirement age and she didn't want to exhaust him.
Luo Xian'er took a bottle of water out of her bag and handed it to him: "Uncle Li, here's some water for you. Drinking it should help you."
Without waiting for him to speak, she left with the rabbit and the Shining Armor.
Mr. Li opened the video and watched it again. Regardless of the time, he sent it to his superior and recounted the whole incident.
The thought of seeing these things tomorrow kept him awake at night.
Looking at the bottle of water on the table, I felt thirsty. Even if it was just water, it was a token of someone's goodwill, and I couldn't waste it.
He twisted open the bottle cap and started drinking. The water was incredibly sweet as soon as it entered his throat, and before he knew it, he had finished the whole bottle.
My body, which had been feeling a bit weak, has now become energetic.
Back in his dormitory, Mr. Li thought he wouldn't be able to sleep, but to his surprise, he fell into a deep sleep as soon as he touched the bed.
On her way back to the dormitory, Luo Xian'er was asked by Shan Yaojia if he could come along tomorrow.
"If you go tomorrow, won't it delay your progress in modifying the robot?"
“Master, not at all. I have done everything I was supposed to do. Liu Yang and Chen Hao are perfectly capable of handling the rest of the work. Besides, you won’t be gone for long, so it won’t cause any problems.”
"Alright, go if you want," what kind of robot loves to join in the fun?
Back in the dormitory, everyone went to their rooms.
Luo Xian'er was still not sleepy. Today was a very fruitful day. She took a shower, and before her hair was even dry, she slipped into her spirit ring space.
Upon entering the space, head straight for the Spirit Spring Well. The colorful lotus flowers float naturally on the well, occupying the entire wellhead and the water outlet.
The color was even more vibrant than in the cave. Luo Xian'er plucked a petal, put it in her mouth, and a delicate lotus fragrance filled her entire oral cavity.
The tired body is instantly refreshed, not with an exhilarating feeling, but with a gentle soothing sensation that nourishes both body and mind.
Luo Xian'er rubbed her eyes, feeling a little sleepy. She forced herself to stay awake and went back to her dorm, lay down on her bed, and fell asleep instantly.
The next day, Luo Xian'er was awakened by a series of loud knocks on the door.
She stretched, and the sun was already shining through the window onto the floor. She had no idea what time it was.
The knocking continued. She tidied her messy hair, glanced at her pajamas, quickly changed into her workout clothes, and then went to open the door.
The person standing outside was none other than Old Li. Behind him were several fully armed soldiers, who were presumably going into the mountains with him.
"Xian'er, I've been knocking on the door for ages before you finally opened it. I thought something had happened to you, and I almost broke down the door."
Old Li drank that water last night and slept well. He had no dreams all night and woke up automatically at the appointed time.
As people get older, they don't need to sleep for very long.
He picked up his phone, and there was a directive from his superiors on it, instructing them to find the hole at all costs and, if it was real, to protect the place.
