Gu Ci saw that she seemed to be lost in thought. She had lost so much weight, she must have suffered a lot here.
If possible, he hoped she could finish her work here and return home as soon as possible.
Chen Yao thought about it and decided to tell Gu Ci: "When I first came here, I had some problems with my body because of food incompatibility. After that, I avoided some foods and it got much better. So, you should also pay attention to it in the future."
Gu Ci: "Okay, I will. Thank you for your reminder, but did you find it difficult at that time?"
After a moment of silence, Chen Yao smiled and said, "No matter what, I've made it through."
Gu Ci lowered his eyes and said softly, "Yes, I got through it."
There was silence in the air for a moment.
Then, Gu Ci asked her: "Yaoyao, what if..."
But at this moment, Chen Yao's phone suddenly rang. It was her mother calling her on WeChat.
"Um, Gu Ci, excuse me, I have to take a call first."
Gu Ci nodded and took back what he was about to say.
Chen Yao picked up the phone.
"Mom? Yes, I'm out now. I won't be coming over for the next two days. You and Dad should have a good rest."
"Yes, I'm going to have dinner with my colleagues tonight and then take another day off tomorrow."
"Okay, I understand. I'll pay attention."
"Okay, let's do this for now. I'll come see you in a few days."
After listening to her mother's instructions, Chen Yao hung up the phone.
Then Gu Ci beside me said, "Did you want to tell me something just now?"
Gu Ci thought about it and just said, "Nothing."
Chen Yao raised an eyebrow, unable to guess what he wanted to say.
She silently opened her cell phone and took a look at the distance from here to the base, estimating that it would take more than half an hour to get there.
It’s still quite long.
If possible, she really wanted to close her eyes and take a nap. When she woke up, she should have arrived at the base.
However, considering the current situation, this should be a bit impolite.
Thinking of this, she held back.
…
I don’t know how long it took.
The vehicle continued to move at a relatively steady speed. It was very quiet in the car, no one was talking, and there was no sound of music.
Chen Yao just felt that she was gradually getting sleepy, and her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier. Sometimes her eyes were closed, but they would suddenly open again.
Gu Ci, who was standing by, quickly noticed her sleepiness and said bluntly, "Close your eyes and go to sleep. Wait until I call you."
She didn't have to be so tense in front of him.
Chen Yao finally fell asleep, and when she opened her eyes again, she had already arrived at the base.
The truck arrived about five minutes earlier than them, so they were a step behind.
After the car stopped, Chen Yao quickly stood up, straightened her messy skirt, opened the car door and walked out.
When Special Assistant Zhou saw them arrive, he walked over with a smile and said to Gu Ci, "Mr. Gu, this is our main base. Would you like to take a look around?"
Gu Ci waved his hand and said, "No need. Everyone is tired today. Let's pack up and go back to rest."
Special Assistant Zhou understood: "Okay."
…
Afterwards, the project leader took the inspection team to a place arranged in advance to settle down. However, before leaving, he waited for Chen Yao on purpose.
"You didn't eat much at noon, and you've been running around. If your blood sugar gets low again, it won't be good. Coincidentally, I brought some candy today, fruit-flavored. Here, all for you."
As he said that, he put all the fruit candies he had been holding in his hand into Chen Yao's hand, then ran back to the team with a smile.
Chen Yao was stunned. This was the second time she received candy from him. It had been two months since the last time he encountered and helped her when she had hypoglycemia.
"Thank you, Team Leader." She said to him,
The tall man just waved his hand and left quickly.
Gu Ci, who happened to see this scene not far away, suddenly felt unwell.
He stared at the man's back with a serious look and gritted his teeth.
"Doctor Shen." He suddenly called out to Shen Yao who was about to leave.
Chen Yao stopped and asked in surprise: "You haven't gone back to rest yet?"
She thought he would leave before them.
Gu Ci looked at the colorful fruit candies in Chen Yao's hand with a dim gaze, and suddenly said, "I have low blood sugar."
Chen Yao was stunned. Regardless of whether it was true or false, she walked over and gave him some of the candy in her hand.
Gu Ci looked at the few candies still in her hand and said shamelessly, "That's not enough. I want them all."
Chen Yao widened her eyes slightly and looked at him in surprise.
Gu Ci raised his eyebrows to indicate that he was not joking.
Chen Yao raised an eyebrow and stuffed all the candies in her hand into the small backpack she was carrying without giving any to him.
