Now, Ning Qi, Hu Bo, Kang Rong, and the supervisor were trudging through the blizzard. They were all sleep-deprived and the forced march was draining them.
Kang Rong, having the least stamina, could hardly hold up anymore, she muttered, "Do we really have to go out in this blizzard?"
"We have no other choice. Do you want Gu Fan and his team to notice our unusual behavior?" Ning Qi, although also a woman, had a stronger will than Kang Rong.
Kang Rong still had some concern, "Even if we managed to sneak out successfully, Gu Fan might still find out."
Ning Qi's face fell slightly, "There's indeed the possibility of being found out, but there's a greater chance we won't be. They won't check our tents for no reason. We just have to return before sunrise, before they get up, and we will be fine."
Hu Bo agreed, "Yes, this is our best chance."
Kang Rong still had reservations, "Didn't we agree to find a reason to part ways with them? They wouldn't know what we're up to then."
