Gu'er didn't pay it any mind. She was in an excellent mood: Liu Yuan wasn't going to die, the factory casualties had been minimal, and she was about to open a private shopping center with Li Zhi and the others. It was time to really show what they could do. Gu'er was so full of drive that she had no time to sweat the small stuff.
Two days later, Gu'er and the others set out for the Soviet Union again. She knew securing the contract wouldn't happen in a day or two. The city still had to review the application, and it might not even be approved by the time she returned. So, she left without any worries.
After getting off the train, they first went to their lodgings to drop off their things. Then, they went to see Marina.
"Oh, Lin, what took you so long? I've been waiting for you! What wonderful things did you bring me this time?"
Marina was incredibly warm and welcoming the moment she saw Gu'er.
