Chapter 114 Safe Journey
"Ding ding ding ding."
The alarm clock that Bai Tang set rang on time, and Bai Tang raised her hand to turn it off.
Gu Yanxu, who was standing nearby, was also woken up by the alarm clock and grumbled as he snuggled over.
The two cuddled for a few more minutes before fully waking up.
After getting up and washing up, Bai Tang put the canned food into her space for Mu Mu to take.
Gu Yanxu called out to Bai Jiyang and Lin Fan.
The two had a clear division of labor and quickly got ready. They went downstairs, drove to the Gu family's house, and had breakfast.
Lin Fan and the others were still yawning even when it was time for breakfast.
Seeing this, Grandpa Gu asked, "When did you all go to bed last night? Why are you so tired?"
Lin Zhou said, "I'm fine. I went to bed early. The three of them have been studying Go and are completely absorbed in it."
Grandpa Gu laughed and said, "Hahaha, it seems I'm still the best."
Gu Yanxu said, "Once we get back to the Shengshi base, you'll have plenty of time to play."
We're leaving tomorrow, so everyone should get a good rest tonight.
...
After breakfast, Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu drove Gu's mother to the base center.
I arranged to meet Qian Duoduo there yesterday.
When they arrived, they saw Qian Duoduo and his sister already waiting there.
Without any delay, the group quickly went to the relevant counter and completed the transfer procedures.
They gave Qian Duoduo two keys, and kept one for themselves.
Gu Yanxu said to Qian Duoduo, "When we leave tomorrow morning, please leave this key on the table inside the house."
Qian Duoduo readily paid the contribution points to Gu's mother.
After everything was done, Bai Tang said:
"Then we'll head back now, and we'll move out tomorrow morning."
Qian Duoduo asked, "Where are you moving to?"
Gu Yanxu said succinctly, "Go to other bases."
The rest was left unsaid, and Qian Duoduo wisely refrained from asking any further questions.
After parting ways with Qian Duoduo and her siblings, the two took Gu's mother back home to pack their things.
Tonight will be their last night here.
We need to clean up the house. We'll give the furniture away as a free gift to Qian Duoduo and his family.
After tidying up, we had a simple lunch.
At this point, only the bed and blankets remained in the house.
Bai Tang told them, "Get some rest early tonight."
I'll probably be leaving very early tomorrow morning, so please be prepared.
Grandpa Gu said, "Don't worry, we're not the kind of people who are sentimental."
Gu Yanxu continued, "Grandpa, I know you're not a sentimental person, but you're getting on in years, that's why we're worried about you."
...
During dinner that evening, they gave him a few more instructions.
Just as Bai Tang returned to her temporary dormitory to rest and was about to wash up, Chen Weiliang's voice came through the walkie-talkie again:
"Hey, everyone can hear me, right?"
Everyone should get some rest early tonight. We'll meet at 4:00 AM tomorrow and depart promptly at 4:30 AM.
You will be responsible for the consequences of not arriving on time.
Just to reiterate, we'll meet at 4:00 AM tomorrow and depart at 4:30 AM.
After he gave the notification, there was a lot of noise as people walked out of the building.
They're probably all going to tell their families to get some rest and what time they're leaving tomorrow.
Lin Fan and the others also heard the announcement and came over.
Linzhou said, "Let's go and tell Grandpa and the others."
Bai Tang said, "I'll go with him, you guys can rest."
After saying that, Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu went out and downstairs.
They drove to the Gu family's house; they hadn't rested yet.
When Grandpa Gu saw the two of them coming over, he asked them, "Why are you here again?"
Gu Yanxu said, "You guys should go and rest. We'll meet at four o'clock tomorrow morning and leave at four-thirty."
"So early?" Grandpa Gu asked with a hint of doubt.
Bai Tang said, "Yes, and we need to go even earlier."
I'll come pick you up; you'll need to get up around 3:50.
Mr. Gu also walked over from the side: "Then get some rest early, and you should all go back and go to sleep early too."
Gu Yanxu said, "Okay, we probably won't have time for breakfast. You can have breakfast in the RV."
After informing them, Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu drove back to their temporary dormitory.
On my way upstairs, I ran into Jin Zhiyu, who was returning with two dogs.
Jin Zhiyu said, "I heard that Miss Bai, you are leaving tomorrow morning?"
Bai Tang stopped and said, "Yes, we're leaving first thing tomorrow morning. Aren't you leaving yet?"
Jin Zhiyu said, "Our base will depart for back tomorrow night."
I hope you have a safe journey and that we meet again someday.
Bai Tang also said, "I wish you a safe journey, and I hope we will meet again someday."
After saying that, Bai Tang and the other person went upstairs.
Back in the room, Bai Tang went to wash up in her spatial dimension. After washing up, she went straight to bed.
Gu Yanxu lay down next to her and said, "I've set an alarm. Go to sleep."
...
Rest time always seems so short, and the alarm clock rings on time.
Bai Tang looked up at the alarm clock, which showed that it was 3:30.
She reached out and nudged Gu Yanxu next to her, and the two of them quickly got up and got ready.
Bai Tang was tidying up the room and putting the mattress back on the bed.
Gu Yanxu then woke up Lin Feng and the others.
While they took turns washing up, Bai Tang also tidied up the things in their bedrooms.
Bai Tang restored the things in the house to how they were when they arrived.
They quickly packed up and went downstairs one by one with their backpacks on their backs.
Bai Tang, Gu Yanxu, and Lin Feng drove two cars to pick up the people first, while Lin Fan, Bai Jiyang, and Lin Zhou watched over the car from inside the RV.
They soon arrived at the Gu family home. There was an alarm clock left by Bai Tang, and Grandpa Gu and the others had already gotten up and packed their things.
Bai Tang walked over and said, "Mom, Dad, Grandpa, you get in the car first. I'll pack my things."
Lin Feng helped Grandpa Gu into the car, followed closely by Grandma Gu and Grandpa Gu's parents.
Bai Tang left the key on the living room table and then quickly put their packed belongings into the space.
After leaving the house and locking the door, Bai Tang got into the car.
I rushed back to the dormitory building, and it was already four o'clock.
The team members have almost all assembled.
Chen Weiliang instructed them to drive the cars out in the order that had been assigned beforehand.
Bai Tang and his group arrived just in time, and exchanged cars with Lin Fan and his group.
Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu took their parents and grandfather into the RV.
Bai Jiyang, Lin Feng, and the other three continued to drive in pairs, each in a car.
Bai Tang had already placed food in the other two cars so that the four of them could have some breakfast to replenish their energy.
Then it was soon their team's turn to drive the car out.
Gu Yanxu drove the car behind the car in front, and Bai Tang took out some easy-to-eat breakfast for her parents and grandfather in the common space of the RV.
Let them eat some breakfast if they want, and if they don't want to eat, they can sit on the sofa and rest before the car leaves.
