Luo Zheng estimated that Shi Qian was unwilling to leave with him because he had other matters to attend to, and did not insist. He left the hotel with Lan Xue and Lan Xing. On the way, Lan Xue suggested they visit her grandfather, to pay respects and discuss their mission since they couldn't act without upper-level support. Luo Zheng naturally did not object. Lan Xue immediately called her grandfather, and after saying a few words, the three headed to a certain secret military base.
About ten minutes later, they arrived at the base, parked the car, and walked to the familiar compound. There were guards waiting at the door who led them to the living room. Just at the doorway, they heard Mr. Li's cheerful laughter: "You still have some conscience, knowing to come and see this old man."
