"Disembark," Guo Xuyang murmured to himself.
The craft materialized abruptly on the surface of the moon.
Yet, it was inconspicuous against the vastness of the planet, no larger than a crater.
He climbed into the craft and found Tong Xin and Xu Dahai just waking up.
"Where are we?"
"Where? You two were sleeping so soundly, I couldn't wake you no matter how much I shouted, so I had to carry you into the ship."
"Ah? That's impossible! Did you do something to us?" Tong Xin asked nervously.
"Why would I do anything to you? That's absurd."
"I-I'm sorry, Captain Guo, I didn't mean it like that. Ah, how did I fall asleep?"
"Perhaps you were just tired," Guo Xuyang said.
Tong Xin always felt that Guo Xuyang's words were directed at her.
The last time, she and Li Minyu had secretly followed Guo Xuyang back to the capital. Seeing him go to find Jiang Qixin, they had returned to the team.
Unexpectedly, before she could even rest, she was notified to report to Guo Xuyang.
With no other choice, she had rushed to the provincial capital to find Guo Xuyang.
It was her own fault for being so nosy, insisting on following Guo Xuyang.
When she heard that only she and Xu Dahai were going on this exploration, she even wondered if Guo Xuyang was using his authority for personal revenge against her.
However, she also knew that if she and Xu Dahai could follow Guo Xuyang to find rare metals or better supplies, she could definitely advance further within the team.
Perhaps she could even replace Xin Dali.
Thinking this, she encouraged herself again.
But after having lunch with Guo Xuyang and being told to sleep, she had actually slept like a log.
When she opened her eyes, she was already inside the spacecraft.
She even secretly felt herself over, and when she found nothing amiss, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She knew very well how scummy Guo Xuyang was.
At Li Minxi's wedding banquet, several women had unclear relationships with Guo Xuyang.
Although she wasn't as beautiful as those women, she wasn't far off either.
She didn't believe Guo Xuyang was indifferent to her.
Unfortunately, she was mistaken. Guo Xuyang had no interest in her whatsoever.
"Yangzi, where are we now? I don't hear the engine running," Xu Dahai asked.
"Engine? Our craft isn't moving, so how could there be engine noise?"
"Then where are we now?"
"On the surface of the moon."
"The moon? How is that possible? How did we get here?"
"Of course, we came by spacecraft. Do you think we flew here?"
"My god, you're not kidding me, are you? Pinch me, am I dreaming?"
"Why don't you pinch yourself? Look at the time, what time is it?
It took us over five hours to fly here.
You didn't believe me when I said you were sleeping soundly." Guo Xuyang was now a natural liar.
"We reached the moon in five hours? You should at least prepare your lies beforehand!
What kind of spacecraft can reach the moon in just over five hours?"
"Believe it or not. In a while, when Yu'er finishes refueling the craft, I'll show you how amazing this flyer is," Guo Xuyang boasted.
"This spacecraft doesn't run on fuel?"
"Are you trying to be funny? What spacecraft runs on fuel? Can fuel provide that much power?"
"I just misspoke. Then what powers this spacecraft?"
"Crystals, diamonds," Guo Xuyang said.
"Crystals, diamonds?" Xu Dahai was stunned.
