After that meal of white rice, Gu Xi noticed that Wei Heng was a completely different person.
He was full of vigor and brimming with hope.
Looking at him, Gu Xi was suddenly reminded of the saying—to the people, food is heaven.
The two of them, having snuck out for a private meal in the middle of the night, slipped back home under the cover of darkness.
The next morning, Gu Xi discovered many strangers in the vicinity. Besides the construction crew, there were also armed patrol teams in the distance.
It seemed the base was taking the professors' test field very seriously.
After breakfast, Gu Xi ambled over in that direction.
Along the way, she noted that more than half of the patrol members were ability users.
This was hardly the security detail for a typical research unit.
Mr. Zhao and Mr. Zhang were both very busy at the moment, discussing the test field with the head of the construction crew. They didn't have time for Gu Xi and told her to go find Shen Yue first.
