After Shen Yichen knew the current location, he quickly drove back to the vicinity of the Guangdong base.
"Aren't we going in?" Chen Yuanyuan watched the gate of the second phase pass in front of her, but Shen Yichen had no intention of stopping.
"What's wrong? Do you want to stay in the hotel for a few more days?" Shen Yichen asked.
"No!" Chen Yuanyuan thought of those days of hell-like special training and decided to forget it.
The two arrived at the exit of the secret road where they intercepted the Li family's car last time, and Shen Yichen sent a message to Old Man Guazi.
But seeing Shen Yichen's brows furrowing more and more, it seemed like there was some trouble.
After all, it is an official secret passage. Even if you usually enter or exit, you have to apply in advance, and now temporary applications have to wait for approval.
But this time it was a problem caused by space. The two of them had no record of leaving the city, so they didn't know how to apply for it at the moment.
"Yuanyuan, bring out a few bags of melon seeds." Shen Yichen said.
Chen Yuanyuan understood immediately and took a few packs of melon seeds with novel flavors.
After Shen Yichen took a photo of the melon seeds on Chen Yuanyuan's hand and sent it to the old man, he received a reply soon.
"Let's go, it's done." Shen Yichen said.
"How about you wear a pair of shoes?" Chen Yuanyuan took out a pair of men's Crocs shoes from the space and gave them to him.
When I walked last time, there was a bit of moss on the ground, which would be a bit disgusting if you stepped on it directly.
"Okay." Shen Yichen said.
After Chen Yuanyuan put the off-road vehicle back into space, the two of them walked along the dark and damp passage again.
Soon we reached the pig trough.
"Humph, you kid is causing me trouble every day." The old man said.
"Didn't we come here just to get melon seeds for you?" Shen Yichen said.
"Why did you come back wearing slippers and pajamas?" the old man asked strangely.
"Grandpa, look at these tangerine peel-flavored melon seeds. It took me a lot of effort to find them. I immediately wanted to come back and give them to you." Chen Yuanyuan also immediately changed the topic and handed a few bags of melon seeds to the old man.
"Go quickly, go quickly, don't let anyone see you, it won't happen again!" Although the old man still had a straight face, his eyes showed a smile.
After Chen Yuanyuan and Shen Yichen left in a hurry, the old man shook his head and didn't know why they ended up outside in their pajamas in the middle of the night.
After the two returned to the main road, they took a shared electric vehicle and returned to the city.
Although there are almost no people on the road now in the middle of the night, it is not particularly strange to wear pajamas in the city.
After the two returned to Villa No. 38, as soon as they opened the door, a pan hit Shen Yichen head-on.
"It's us!" Shen Yichen quickly stopped the pan.
"Oh, why are you outside!" Grandma He said.
Grandma He usually gets up at four or five in the morning. Now at 4:30, Grandma He is boiling water in the kitchen. When she hears the door opening, she quickly picks up the pan.
"Didn't I just return to the room early in the morning, and I didn't see you guys going out?" Grandma He said to herself in confusion.
"Well, let's go for a walk." Chen Yuanyuan said.
"Going for a walk in the middle of the night?" Grandma He looked disbelieving.
"Grandma, you have a good sense of safety." Chen Yuanyuan said helplessly.
After the two deceived Grandma He, they went back to the room and took a bath in the space. After soaking in the spiritual spring water for a while, the mosquito bite disappeared.
"Go back to sleep. We will study this thing tomorrow after we have slept." Shen Yichen saw Chen Yuanyuan still squatting in front of the knot and watching.
It was almost six o'clock in the morning when the two of them returned to the room. After a long night of rest, Zhou Che fell into bed and fell asleep. When they came downstairs, everyone was having lunch.
"Yuanyuan, Achen, you guys are awake, come over and eat!" Grandma He said.
"Didn't you go to bed early last night? Why do you look so tired?" He Yuehua noticed that both of them had black eyes.
"They" Grandma He was about to say, but was interrupted by Chen Yuanyuan.
"I was playing PS5 with him last night and accidentally ended up playing games all night long." Chen Yuanyuan made a casual excuse.
"Do you have a PS5 at home?" Xiao Yan's eyes lit up.
Although Shen Yichen brought a PS4 to the office before, Xiao Yan was considered the elder in the department and was always embarrassed to compete with young people like Xia Yunhe and Cao Huaifeng to play with it.
"Yes, there is one in the living room and one in the room. You can take one back to your new home when the time comes. It will be a gift for you as well." Chen Yuanyuan bought two sets of each style in the space, and later searched for them in the industrial building. With two sets, there is simply no end to the game.
Although Xiao Yan repeatedly postponed it, game consoles were indeed hard to find in the base, so he accepted one.
"Don't take your children to play games every day then." Cheng Lingxiang said with a smile.
"That's definitely not the case. My wife and children must be given priority!" Xiao Yan said.
"Lingxiang, when are you going to have your baby?" Chen Yuanyuan glanced at her belly, which was already showing that she was pregnant.
"It's exactly twenty-eight weeks now, and there are still about three months left." Cheng Lingxiang said.
"Now that we are in the middle and late stages of pregnancy, although it is a bit harder, it is still relatively stable. After the first and second phases of pregnancy are exchanged after the new year, I will go to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic to prepare the traditional Chinese medicine for you during confinement." He Yuehua said.
"Okay, thank you." Cheng Lingxiang said.
"Do I still need to take Chinese medicine during confinement?" Although Xiao Yan had asked many people early in the morning to prepare for taking care of his wife after giving birth, he didn't know that he had to prepare Chinese medicine.
"In addition to some medicinal packets for bathing and washing hair, you can also take 28 prescriptions for postpartum conditioning. One dose a day will be very effective for body recovery." He Yuehua said.
"Okay, I'll transfer the points to you when the time comes." Xiao Yan said.
"It's okay, this is my gift to Lingxiang and the baby." He Yuehua said with a smile.
At that time, He Yuehua and Cheng Lingxiang had become quite familiar with each other when they stayed at United Gardens. In addition, they had been living together during this period, and He Yuehua had already booked the position of the baby's godmother.
"Why don't you go to your new home after giving birth and sit here for confinement? I also like children." Chen Yuanyuan said.
Chen Yuanyuan had asked about Xiao Yan and Cheng Lingxiang before. They were both childhood sweethearts in the orphanage, so they had no relatives or elders. They had supported each other over the years.
"Yes, you are a grown man and I'm afraid you won't be able to take good care of her. Confinement period is very important for women." When Grandma He was young, she did not sit properly during confinement period, and now she often suffers from back pain.
"I'm sorry." Cheng Lingxiang felt that she had already troubled them a lot. Because she was pregnant, she didn't usually help her with housework.
"You're welcome, it's settled." Shen Yichen said.
Everyone was happily discussing what they should prepare to replenish Cheng Lingxiang's health.
Chen Yuanyuan thought that if Zhang Linlin were here now, she would happily make clothes for the baby.
Alas, I miss her again.
