Li Xin'er stroked her chin, seemingly lost in thought.
"The last time I saw you was in Haishi. If you're looking for someone, you can try going there. As for anything else, I can't help you. I'm just giving you a clue."
"Also, I have some minor disagreements with him right now. You can look for other people, but don't mention me."
Lu Chen agreed without hesitation, "Okay, don't worry, this matter won't involve you."
"In any case, I will definitely send people to look for it. I am very grateful for the information you provided."
Li Xin'er waved her hand casually. She had only discovered it by chance, and since she thought Lu Chen was a nice person and didn't really want to find her child, she just considered it a good deed.
She pulled a piece of paper from a folder on the desktop, wrote down the orphanage's address and some basic information about Li Yiyuan, and then handed it to Lu Chen.
"Hope this helps."
"Also, be nice to him; he's had a tough time."
In the original owner's memory, the two children often talked about family when they were young.
They wanted to think about it, but they dared not.
They fear being abandoned, a burden to be discarded, yet they also hope that one day, like their fellow orphans, they will have parents to come and take them home.
Lu Chen took it with both hands, and upon hearing Li Xin'er's instructions, his eyes involuntarily reddened.
He nodded sincerely, "Don't worry, it definitely will."
In the past, even if the person he found turned out not to be the one he was looking for, he would still help them find their real family. If there was really no other way, he would continue to secretly provide financial assistance.
He also thought that if he helped one more orphan, perhaps his child somewhere would also be helped in the same way.
That's what he hoped for.
After that topic was put aside, we returned to the original subject.
Lu Chen then took out another list of supplies.
"We'd like to purchase some daily necessities, not a large quantity. How many crystal cores would you like?"
Li Xin'er took the list, glanced at it, and saw that it was mostly food or daily necessities, and the quantity was indeed not much. Buying these supplies would require more than a thousand crystal cores in the space supermarket.
"Three thousand crystal cores will suffice for these."
Lu Chen had originally thought he would need around five thousand crystal cores, so he brought seven or eight thousand more this time. He hadn't expected it to be so much less than he'd anticipated.
"Sure, I brought extra this time, so we'll settle the bill with you all at once."
“I see you have a truck following you this time.”
Upon Li Xin'er's reminder, Lu Chen nodded in agreement.
"Yes, there aren't many supplies this time. Let's see if we can take them back with us so we don't have to trouble you to deliver them again."
Regarding the two bizarre deliveries and the supplies that suddenly appeared at the base, Lu Chen and his team deliberately ignored them and did not delve into the matter in front of Li Xin'er.
Li Xin'er pretended to be ignorant, knowing full well that this was the best outcome.
"Sure, we happen to have some in stock."
Carl and the others cleared out the garage in the villa to use as a storage room. It was big enough that she could put her things there later.
Lu Chen seemed to suddenly remember something, "Oh right, there's another question, I wonder if it's convenient to ask?"
Li Xin'er raised her chin. "Go on."
When did you set off to deliver the last batch of supplies?
Li Xin'er knew that this seemingly casual question actually concealed a lot of issues.
If she answers, Lu Chen will indirectly know whether these supplies came from Li Xin'er or from other sources.
In addition, she initially said it would be delivered in three days, but given the current situation, it's impossible for it to arrive from S City to there in three days, except by plane.
If it's an airplane, where would it be? This is quite a large shipment of supplies...
Li Xin'er raised an eyebrow slightly. "What, does Mr. Lu have some plans?"
Lu Chen remained calm and continued the conversation naturally.
"Here's the thing, if you're starting from this side, I'd like you to take Jin'an with you."
"If there's a need for his work over there, he'll also bring one of our people with him so you can find your way and won't get lost."
Li Xin'er blinked, her eyes filled with words, "See if I believe you or not?"
At first, they confidently assured me that once we got there, someone would come to guide us.
Li Xin'er glanced at Lu Jin'an beside her. There was a moment of surprise and confusion in his eyes, but then he pursed his lips firmly.
It seems that Lu Chen made this decision on a whim, but it doesn't matter. Bringing someone along is fine too. If nothing unexpected happens, the place we're going to should be this country's secret base.
At this time, things inside must be in turmoil and quite chaotic.
She just wanted to do business and didn't want to get involved in so many complicated matters. Having Lu Jin'an, who was familiar with the inside story, would make things better.
"Bringing one person is fine. We'll leave tomorrow, and I'll pick them up from the base then."
"Okay, I'll let the guards know."
Entering and exiting the base is much more strictly controlled than entering and exiting the secure zone.
Lu Chen thought he would be rejected, but Li Xin'er agreed readily.
He didn't intend to dig up Li Xin'er's secrets or anything. It just so happened that Li Xin'er was thinking about something similar: things weren't very stable inside the Starfire Security Base.
The delivery of those supplies was not entirely public; it was a unilateral decision by Lu Zheng. What kind of turmoil Li Xin'er and the delivery of those supplies would stir up remains to be seen.
Having one of their own people with her was a way of indirectly protecting Li Xin'er from being disturbed by others.
After confirming this, Li Xin'er put the supplies into the warehouse in advance and then asked Lu Chen's people to move them.
The warehouse originally didn't have many supplies, just enough for Li Xin'er and the others to eat and use daily.
After all, she could replenish the supplies at any time, but to prevent Lu Chen and the others from noticing anything amiss, Li Xin'er brought out quite a few extra items besides those on the list.
So much so that even after they moved all 3,000 crystal cores, more than half of them were still left in the warehouse.
As soon as Lu Chen left, Li Xin'er couldn't wait and took the crystal core into the space.
I just spent nearly 10,000 points on supplies, I need to replenish my points quickly!
This time, a total of 133,000 crystal cores were collected. In addition, everyone also had awakened ability crystal cores, and a hundred or so were kept as spares, making a total of 140,000 crystal cores for recharge.
As soon as the money was deposited, Little You on the door panel, with its big, bright eyes, started broadcasting.
"Current points".
"When you accumulate more than 300,000 points, the redemption system can be upgraded."
Before Li Xin'er could react, a 'ding' sounded, and in the blink of an eye...
"Exchange system, assistant Xiao You has been upgraded."
Li Xin'er asked, "What was upgraded?"
Then, on the door panel, beneath the two pairs of eyes that were originally 00, a capital '1' appeared...
It's like a face with a mouth...
That's it?
Xiao You: "Yes."
Li Xin'er was speechless. Was she playing a game with her?
Then I lost interest in dealing with it anymore. I had enough points, so I needed to buy the equipment and materials to send to Huangxia Plain.
Following the list and placing the order, 1.2 million points vanished in an instant!
Current points: /100 million
Seeing her points decrease again, Li Xin'er couldn't wait to earn crystal cores!
