Those Classmates who Suddenly Disappeared

Chapter 763 - 763 763 We Are a Team

763: Chapter 763: We Are a Team 763: Chapter 763: We Are a Team After disembarking from the plane, three vehicles were parked at the airport.

Zhuo Hang gathered everyone together and began assigning tasks.

This time, the main decoys were Gu Fan and Qian Ye.

They took the lead in one vehicle.

Thankfully, Gu Fan had recently obtained his driving license, allowing him to take full control of the wheel.

Zhuo Hang, Su Hui, and Gu Ling were in the second vehicle, and the rest in the third vehicle.

As before, each vehicle would set off after a certain time interval to maintain a safe distance.

Zhuo Hang repeatedly emphasized the need for constant communication.

If anything unexpected happened, they should report immediately, and if necessary, fire a flare.

However, before the departure, Gu Fan had a final discussion about the conditions with Zhuo Hang.

Zhuo Hang reassured Gu Fan that such a simple matter would certainly not be a problem and that Gu Fan should set off without any worries.

“Alright then, let’s go!” Gu Fan signaled Qian Ye to get in the vehicle.

However, Qian Ye seemed somewhat reluctant.

The vehicle started, and after a short while, Qian Ye couldn’t help but grumble, “Although what you said makes sense, we’re collaborating with these people for protection, and avoiding Qian Feng.

But what if these people lose to Qian Feng and then turn to us for help?

Won’t that just add more trouble?

Can we really trust these people?”

Seeing Qian Ye’s unwillingness, Gu Fan reassured her, “Actually, I asked Zhuo Hang a special favor: to have a document prepared, stating that you have been hired by a certain jobsite and then sent overseas.

This gives you a legitimate reason to not return to Lin Xi’s home.”

Upon hearing this, Qian Ye was overjoyed.

This was an excellent arrangement, “Gu Fan, you’ve made the right call.

I never thought you would think about me this much.”

“Nonsense, I’m afraid if you continue interacting with Lin Xi’s parents, being discovered isn’t the worst thing that could happen; what if you guys actually end up in a fight?

It’s serious business.” Gu Fan lived in fear every day as Qian Ye had on multiple occasions complained about being spanked.

It was unbearable to know that a queen was subjected to this kind of treatment.

This cooperation offered not only protection but also freed Qian Ye from the constraints of daily life.

It was perfect and there was no reason for Qian Ye to refuse.

Seeing Qian Ye’s happy face, Gu Fan couldn’t help but ask, “So, how does it feel to have a family?

It’s not as wonderful as you envisioned, is it?”

However, Qian Ye responded, “They’re Lin Xi’s parents, not mine.

If they were my real parents who raised me with great hardship, I, of course, would not mind.”

“Okay, okay, you’re right,” Gu Fan laughed, then he added, “In a week’s time, we’ll go to that research base, use the Time Travel machine, and switch you and Lin Xi back.

Everyone can return to their normal lives.”

“Yes, that’s true.

It’s been an unforgettable journey.” Qian Ye sighed with deep emotion, then looked out the window as the evening dusk filled the sky, her eyebrows furrowing slightly.

Gu Fan did not notice Qian Ye’s expression as he was focused on driving.

“This Time Travel thing is really incredible.

It allows people from the future to go back to ancient times, and people from ancient times to come to the future.

There should be many such Time Travel machines in this era, right?

Can we go anywhere we want?

Why do we have to go to that research base?

Don’t you think it’s too far?

Exhausting, isn’t it?” Qian Ye made it clear she wasn’t thrilled about the long trip.

Gu Fan reassured her, “It can’t be helped.

Only the research base has the Time Travel capability.

We don’t have a choice.”

Qian Ye uttered a little “oh,” and then said, “So only they can create this Time Travel device.”

Gu Fan nodded his head in affirmation, but he failed to notice Qian Ye’s slightly upturned lips.

Qian Ye posed another question, “I’m a bit worried about not being able to go back to ancient times on the appointed date.

If you encounter trouble on the promised date, could others accompany me to the research base and bring Lin Xi back?”

This question caught Gu Fan off guard and he furrowed his brow, “That’s right, I need to have a plan B.

Once this task is completed, I think I will talk to Su Hui about it.

If I get trapped, she can handle it.”

“You’d better talk to her now considering what we’re about to face could be daunting.

No one knows what will happen.

Maybe you’ll end up getting trapped.” Qian Ye’s words weren’t pleasing to hear, but they were just a precaution.

Gu Fan thought about it and realized it wasn’t the right time to talk to Su Hui since Zhuo Hang had been by her side and he didn’t want him to know too much.

Thus, Qian Ye proposed, “Gu Fan tell me how to contact the research base and where to go.

Even if you get trapped, even if no one can help me return to ancient times, I can still take action on my own.”

“That’s true!” Gu Fan found her words reasonable and therefore revealed contact information and directions to the research base.

To be honest, Gu Fan didn’t see any problems in telling Qian Ye.

On the contrary, it was like adding an extra layer of insurance.

Gu Fan didn’t want Lin Xi to be stuck in the ancient times due to an unexpected situation with him.

But he felt uneasy.

Today, Qian Ye talked a lot about Time Travel and going back to ancient times.

She considered all the possible issues and was actively discussing contingency plans, just in case.

On the surface, she seemed to care much about being able to return to ancient times successfully.

But why was Gu Fan still feeling unsettled?

Gu Fan told himself not to overthink.

At this time, the primitive forest was completely shrouded in darkness.

The car sped along the dark highway, surrounded by silent woods.

Danger could come back at any time, and Gu Fan was feeling a bit nervous.

Despite having been through many battles, he was still somewhat afraid, his hands gripping the steering wheel trembled slightly.

Qian Ye glanced at Gu Fan’s slightly trembling hand.

She then took action: she extended her hand and grabbed Gu Fan’s, steadying the steering wheel, saying, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here with you.

My supernatural strength is very strong, much stronger than Lin Xi’s.

I have enough power to ensure your safety.”

Hearing this, Gu Fan felt suddenly calmer.

He looked appreciatively at Qian Ye and felt lucky to have such a powerful and reliable companion by his side.

Feeling the warmth from Qian Ye’s hand, it felt as if Lin Xi was by his side, and Gu Fan couldn’t help but laugh.

Then, Qian Ye added, “If anything happens later, remember that you have to follow my commands.

If you don’t, I can’t easily guarantee your safety.”

“Rest assured, I’m always obedient.

Whatever you say goes.” Gu Fan had just finished his vow when the car suddenly broke down.
