Zhao Huaiming asked Han Yixian and his wife to explain the situation to their family, while he and Zhao Huaiming went to the village to request leave for Han Yixian and He Yuhan. Han Yixian and He Yuhan were leaving Beili Village for official business, so the village officials needed to be informed. After all, Han Yixian and his family were still under the village's jurisdiction while they were in Beili Village.
Upon hearing that it was a leader from Kyoto inviting He Yuhan to Beijing on official business, Gao Shuwen naturally offered his support, especially since Han Yixian was accompanying her. "The fact that a leader from Kyoto is here must mean something important," he reasoned, "we must support them."
Once the itinerary was finalized, Han Yixian explained his decision to go to Kyoto to his father and father-in-law.
Han Xiao and He Chenglin both knew that He Yuhan was definitely going to Kyoto, and they felt more at ease with Han Yixian accompanying her.
Han Xiao instructed, "Yi Xian, Kyoto is still not peaceful. When you get there, you must protect Yu Han and prioritize her safety."
Han Yi nodded and said, "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely protect Yuhan, and we will definitely come back safely."
He Yuhan said, "Dad, Minister Zhao said that if I help them solve their problem this time, he guarantees that he won't let anyone disturb our peace. It's worth it for me to solve their problem in exchange for such a promise."
Besides, we can't just stand by and do nothing when the country is in trouble. My brother and I will be careful. We'll leave the family in the care of our elders.”
Han Xiao said, "Don't worry about the family, we've got a few people looking after them."
Gu Qishen said from the side, "I'm here too. I'll take good care of the house for you. Don't worry about the children and elders at home. Try to go and come back as soon as possible."
The two mothers were naturally worried, but they knew they couldn't stop anything; all they could do was protect their home.
Wen Jinyu and Yu Huiru quickly helped He Yuhan pack some luggage, as she was waiting outside and they couldn't delay her for too long.
After packing two bags, everyone saw Han Yixian and He Yuhan off at their doorstep.
At this moment, Gao Shuwen also came over and said to Han Yixian and He Yuhan who were carrying luggage, "Yixian, Yuhan, you can go with peace of mind. Don't worry about things at home."
Han Yixian said, "Thank you for your help, Uncle Gao."
Because of the tight schedule, everyone didn't linger. Han Yixian and his wife said goodbye to everyone, got into the car, and left Beili Village.
After arriving in the city and resting at a guesthouse for one night, the driver took them to a military airport the next day, where they boarded a military plane and arrived in Kyoto that same day.
He Yuhan finally experienced the speed and convenience of airplanes again, which was much faster than taking the train.
Upon arriving in Kyoto, Han Yixian and He Yuhan were accommodated in a relatively high-class guesthouse. Zhao Huaiming told them to rest and wait for his news before leaving with his entourage.
He Yuhan knew that Minister Zhao must have gone to discuss with the relevant leaders how to get her to repair the equipment.
Although she had traveled by plane, He Yuhan was still quite tired.
Han Yi first made up the bed and said, "Yuhan, you should rest for a bit. Minister Zhao has already arranged our meals, and someone will bring us food later. I'll just wait."
He Yuhan lay down on the bed and said, "Brother Yi, you'll have to work hard for a while. I want to sleep for a bit. I'll sleep on the inside, and you can lie down and stretch your back too. Once the food is delivered and no one disturbs us, we'll lock the door and go into the space to eat."
Han Yi nodded, covered He Yuhan with the blanket, and lay down beside her. As long as He Yuhan was by his side, he felt at ease.
He Yuhan drifted off to sleep. Their plane was a transport plane, and the journey was very uncomfortable; He Yuhan was indeed quite tired.
About an hour later, someone knocked on the door. Han Yi knew it was the food delivery person. He quietly got out of bed and opened the door.
Outside the door was a staff member carrying several lunch boxes. He said, "Excuse me, are you Comrade Han Yixian? This is dinner that Minister Zhao instructed us to deliver."
Han Yixian took the lunchbox and said, "Thank you, comrade. You can come and pick up the lunchbox tomorrow."
After seeing off the food delivery person, Han Yixian turned around and saw that his wife was awake. He quickly locked the door and went to the bedside, saying, "Yuhan, dinner has been delivered. I don't think anyone else will come for a while. But let's go into the space to eat and come out as soon as possible, just in case someone comes looking for us."
Han Yi was worried that Zhao Huaiming and the others would come looking for He Yuhan that night.
He Yuhan nodded and led Han Yi into the space first. The two of them processed the rice in the lunchbox to make it look like they had already eaten, and then the couple cooked a few dishes in the kitchen, ate the rice, and left the space.
As Han Yixian had expected, Zhao Huaiming knocked on Han Yixian's door around 8 p.m.
Han Yi opened the door and saw Minister Zhao, saying, "Minister Zhao, it's so late and you're still not home?"
Zhao Huaiming said, "There's no other way, the mission is urgent. I'm here to inform you that I will be picking up Comrade He Yuhan at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. Please have Comrade He Yuhan prepare in advance."
Han Yixian said, "Minister Zhao, I will follow Yuhan wherever she goes. I think you must have investigated and know that Yuhan has been kidnapped more than once before. I am not at ease letting her out of my sight."
You should know my past identity; I certainly won't reveal any secrets.
After thinking for a moment, Zhao Huaiming said, "Alright, you can stay by Comrade He Yuhan's side. I trust your character."
After Zhao Huaiming left, Han Yixian told He Yuhan about the arrangements for tomorrow. The couple went to bed early.
The two of them got up very early the next day, and breakfast was still delivered to them. Han Yi returned the lunchbox from the previous night.
The couple still made their breakfast from the virtual space, instead of eating the food delivered by others. Firstly, it wasn't tasty, and secondly, it was for safety reasons.
At eight o'clock sharp, Zhao Huaiming arrived with his driver to pick up He Yuhan and Han Yixian, and then took them away from the guesthouse.
The car drove for a short time before pulling into a place guarded by armed personnel. The guards at the entrance checked Zhao Huaiming and his group's identification, indicating that the place was heavily guarded.
The car soon stopped in front of a small building. After getting out of the car, He Yuhan and Han Yixian followed Zhao Huaiming into the building.
Upon entering the small building, He Yuhan knew that this was a place for conducting experiments, and she had a general idea of what kind of experiments were being conducted.
Zhao Huaiming led them into a room that was spotless, practically immaculate. This was just one of the outer rooms; the cleanliness inside was even more stringent. He Yuhan and the others were all required to wear shoe covers and white lab coats. The requirements were extremely strict.
Zhao Huaiming then led them into a room inside. Inside, they could see several large pieces of equipment. He Yuhan immediately recognized that the instruments she needed to repair were here; she was finally seeing the real thing.
These instruments are already quite advanced for this era, and it's really not easy to get them in China. No wonder they can't be bought now and can only be repaired.
