Gu Yun took on the task of going to C City to exchange experiences and left Imperial Capital that day, boarding a plane to C City. Upon arrival, he found C City even hotter than he had imagined, with waves of heat overwhelming him.
He had only been off the airplane for a few minutes before sweat had already soaked a patch on his back.
He declined the car C City sent to pick him up, opted to leave the airport himself, and took a taxi to downtown. He reserved a room at a five-star hotel near Li Zhiqian's lab, where he took a shower, changed into a shirt and dress pants, donned sunglasses, and went to pick up Li Zhiqian from work.
He hadn't informed Li Zhiqian of his plans to come to C City beforehand; he wanted to surprise him. By the time he got to the lab building, it was almost time to get off work.
