Chapter 122 -122: Little Secrets

Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng arrived home, and since they had stored everything that shouldn’t appear in “Space” before leaving, there wasn’t much in the house—just some dust to wipe away, nothing to tidy up.

Duan Shumei finished cooking and asked Chen Lang to call Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng for dinner.

Everyone was especially happy during dinner, and Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng talked about their trip.

No one was surprised by the lack of news about the base, as they had been listening to the radio and hadn’t held out much hope.

Then, when Gu Pan mentioned that there were still places affected by the plague, it was unexpected, but everyone could understand.

After dinner, Cheng Yang packed a box of food and told Gu Pan that he wanted to deliver it to Fang Lanlan, asking if Gu Pan could come along.

Gu Pan realized that Cheng Yang wanted to speak with her privately, so she nodded, “Yeah, let’s go together. I’ve also brought some clothes for Lanlan, we can take them with us.”

Speaking of which, Gu Pan opened a package that had been sitting there, unopened, “I forgot about this. These are clothes for everyone, new ones. I found them in a department store. Everyone can share.”

Saying so, she took out a dark blue tracksuit and handed it to Cheng Yang, “Pack this, it’s for Lanlan.”

Since everyone was active at night, it wasn’t suitable to wear bright or light colors, so the clothes she brought were all black, gray, or other dark colors like blue and purple.

Girls still like something pretty, so she added a little color.

Cheng Yang agreed, repacked the clothes in a nice bag, took the food box, and left with Gu Pan for the Fang family’s house.

Once outside, Gu Pan looked at Cheng Yang and smiled, “Got a little secret?”

Cheng Yang nodded, “Yeah, I can’t tell anyone else, could only wait for you to come back. I almost burst.”

Gu Pan laughed, “That much trust in me?”

Cheng Yang nodded, “Yes, I trust you and Lu Ruisheng the most. But Lu Ruisheng might not understand this, so I had to talk to you.”

Hearing this, along with Cheng Yang’s behavior, Gu Pan more or less guessed something, “Do you like Fang Lanlan?”

Cheng Yang’s face reddened slightly, “Yes, you’re amazing, sister. You guessed right immediately. I know this isn’t the right time for these things, but I can’t control my feelings.”

Gu Pan nodded, “If you could control it, it wouldn’t be love. But in times like these, it’s indeed hard to make any promises.”

Cheng Yang continued, “No one else knows, I was holding it inside, just waiting to talk to you. I don’t want to confess anything to her now. If we break this relationship and later need to move, and I can’t bring them along, wouldn’t that be letting her down? I feel quite nice just being able to see her, I just wanted someone to talk to.”

“You’re clear-headed, so I respect your thoughts, but I discussed it with Lu Ruisheng. If we find a base, let’s bring Squad Leader Fang and our friends to the base. Cars are easy to find now, and we have fuel. If they all agree, we can go together.”

“Really? If so, that would be great, though I don’t know if Squad Leader Fang would be willing to come with us.”

Gu Pan shared the same concern, “That’s true. Many people are attached to their homes, and it’s not certain if they would want to go.”

“That’s why I won’t confess. If we can all go to the base, then we can talk about it more suitably then. For now, this is good.”

“Yeah, I think your idea is great. I support you. We have connections with them, and we’re not short of food. We’ll help them out more often.”

“After talking to you, I feel much relieved. Although I thought it was a good idea, I still didn’t quite believe in it without discussing it with someone.”

“Actually, I think Teacher Duan and others might have noticed too. Your face tells it all, and everyone trusts your choice by not saying anything.”

“Really?” Cheng Yang asked, appearing puzzled.

Gu Pan smiled, “What do you think? Lu Ruisheng noticed it, do you think Teacher Duan, who deals with puppy love daily at school, wouldn’t notice?”

Cheng Yang laughed too, “You’re right. When you put it that way.”

As they talked, they both ended up laughing. After all, these people were like family to them, so there was no need to be so reserved. Cheng Yang was willing to talk to Gu Pan, feeling that their sibling relationship was the closest within the family, and because Gu Pan was clear-headed, he trusted her even more.

After arriving at the Fang family’s house, Squad Leader Fang had just returned shortly before and hurried to greet them, “It’s been a while since we’ve seen Xiao Gu. Come inside.”

Gu Pan said, “We went out for a few days to see what’s out there. Let’s talk inside.” It wasn’t appropriate to discuss details in the courtyard.

Inside, Fang Lanlan also came out, greeted them, and poured them water.

After sitting down, Gu Pan discussed the trip with Squad Leader Fang, “This time we mainly wanted to look for news about the base. If there is a national base, we would like to go. What do you think about the base, Squad Leader Fang?”

Squad Leader Fang quickly said, “We naturally hope to go too. I am a soldier, and even if I retired, a lifetime is still a lifetime. We believe in the country, so if there is a base, I would naturally be willing to go. I just don’t know if there will be any requirements.”

Hearing this, Cheng Yang’s eyes lit up, “If there’s a chance, let’s all go to the base together. If there are any requirements or missions, we’ll tackle them together.”

Squad Leader Fang smiled, “I would love that.” After that, he asked Gu Pan, “Did you manage to gather any information?”

Gu Pan shook her head, “No, but we have a radio and keep listening to broadcasts. If there’s any news, we should hear about it. If we get any news, we’ll let you know. And if there are requirements for going to the base, as Cheng Yang said, we’ll figure it out together.”

Squad Leader Fang grinned, “That’s great. If we could go with you, we would feel much more at ease. It’s just my daughter and me at home. As long as we are together, anywhere is home.”

Gu Pan responded, “Then it’s settled. Oh, and we’ve brought back some vegetables and meat, we’ve brought you some cooked dishes. Try them. With this weather, they won’t last long, so eat them soon. We’ll head back now.”

Cheng Yang placed the items on the table, “And here are some clothes my sister brought for Lanlan.” He then pulled out a large apple, “This is also from my sister.”

Both Fang Lanlan and Squad Leader Fang looked at the apple with sparkle in their eyes.

Squad Leader Fang half-jokingly asked, “Xiao Gu, you can still get your hands on these things? That’s quite something!”

Gu Pan explained, “Finding any supplies now is all about chance. There’s a city with a special underground cold storage—don’t know how they maintain the temperature—but they had quite a bit of stuff, though it was priced high. I just brought back a little for everyone to enjoy.”

No need to delve deeper, just mentioning it was enough. The less talked about, the less room for errors.

Squad Leader Fang commented, “That’s really impressive. We haven’t seen this stuff in a long time.”

Gu Pan smiled, “Then you should eat quickly. It’s not good to leave the food out. We’ll head back now, and we’ll come over again when we have the time.”
