Chen Xin was naturally unaware of what was happening to Qin Lan; at this moment, he was still on his way home.
"Mr. Chen, why are we passing through the three towns? If we went through Huanggang City, we could save quite a bit of time," Han Ping questioned while studying the map in his hand, somewhat puzzled by Chen Xin's choice.
Even though there were no other shelters or supply points along the way as he returned the same route from Anhui Province that he had come before, which made it necessary to replenish supplies due to significant consumption, Huanggang City was an important city in Hubei Province with shelters where supplies could be replenished.
So Han Ping didn't quite understand why Chen Xin would choose to detour through the three towns, taking a much longer route.
Chen Xin simply responded, "I made an agreement with someone when I came here, and I need to make a trip to the three towns on the way back."
