Bai Luo Yin was halfway through his instant noodles when he suddenly heard the sound of a car door closing outside. He craned his neck to look out the window and to his surprise, it was Gu Hai's face that he saw.

He hasn't left yet?

Happiness flashed through Bai Luo Yin's heart. However, his first instinct was to shove the half eaten instant noodle cup into a drawer and cover the other two unopened ones with the blanket.

Then he wiped his mouth while the corners of his eyes flickered and radiated with surprise.

"You haven't left yet?"

Gu Hai perked his lips up into a smile, "The flight has been delayed for two hours, so I decided to drop by to see you since the base is close to the airport. You already know, my heart won't feel at ease without seeing you before I go."

With just those words, all the fatigue and grievance Bai Luo Yin had felt, instantly disappeared.

Gu Hai walked over and pulled Bai Luo Yin into a tight embrace. In all honesty, he could not bear to be apart from Bai Luo Yin. Even though they did not meet often, they were connected to each other by these daily lunch deliveries which, at the very least, could be considered to be a type of company and care.

However, this coming week, they would be completely separated and would only be able to use some ice-cold devices to communicate their feelings.

"I have a friend who owns a hotel. I've eaten there a few times, the food is quite delicious. I've asked Huang Shun to contact the manager and arrange for meals to be delivered to you as usual. It's only for one week. If you just stick it out, the days will pass quickly."

Bai Luo Yin smacked Gu Hai's back with as much strength as he could muster. "There is no need to bother anyone else, it's not like I don't have legs. There are a few restaurants in the courtyard, I'll just go there and eat, okay? Besides, the food at the dining hall is pretty good too."

"The food at the dining hall may be pretty good, but aren't I just afraid that a certain someone is going to be too lazy? It's better if I get someone to deliver the meals to you—that way, you'll be saved from eating junk food."

As he spoke, he released his tight hold on Bai Luo Yin, and out of habit he sat on the bed only to be forcefully yanked back up.

"That... how about I take the plane and fly you to Shenzhen?"

Bai Luo Yin was extremely eager to leave this place since danger was silently lurking in every corner.

"Fly me there? Just look at your tired little face, it's all pale," Gu Hai said with an aching heart as he pinched Bai Luo Yin's cheeks. "Let's just stay in the dorm for a while. I have to leave after chatting with you for a bit."

"Then, make sure you don't miss the plane!" Bai Luo Yin's eyes lit up. "How about I drive you to the airport? That way, you won't waste any time and I can be with you for a while longer."

Gu Hai attentively stared at Bai Luo Yin's glowing and energetic facial expression. When a person has a guilty conscience, they often act in a way which is completely contradictory to their usual behavior and mental state. Gu Hai, of course, was not stupid enough to believe that Bai Luo Yin was excited because of him. It was obvious that there was some hidden agenda in his actions.
