Cheng Su told Zhu Lifen and the others to leave first and head back to Qing City, while she stayed behind with Qi Taiguo. Qi Taiguo was participating in the rescue efforts, and seeing the crying children, she felt she should do something too.
Zhu Lifen and the others couldn’t persuade her, so they could only remind her to stay safe before they left.
The earthquake was a magnitude six, and since it occurred in the evening when everyone was still awake and able to flee, the number of casualties was less than expected. However, there were still people buried in the rubble.
And the news was broadcasted immediately everywhere.
When Joy Soon Loy and Xiao Pinshan saw the news, their faces turned pale.
"This, isn’t this the county town that Susu and the others went to?" Ying Xiaoya asked with a pale face.
Xiao Pinshan nodded, his face as white as paper.
Ying Xiaoya burst into tears with a loud wail, "Susu, what do we do now? Susu, ah..."
She rushed to the phone, tremblingly trying to dial, but nobody answered Cheng Su’s home phone.
The army, she didn’t know Qi Taiguo’s office number, didn’t know it.
Ying Xiaoya panicked, not knowing what to do.
"What should we do?" Ying Xiaoya looked helplessly at Xiao Pinshan, "We have to tell Qi Taiguo!"
"Don’t panic, I’ll think of something." Xiao Pinshan took a few steps, saying, "Is there a phone book? Is it written down there? Or, I’ll go to the military base personally."
"Go to what military base? What happened?" Ning Ge walked in from outside, carrying a backpack on his shoulders.
Just as he was about to take off his backpack, Ying Xiaoya rushed over like a whirlwind and grabbed his sleeve, "Susu, she went on a business trip to the Shu region. But there, an earthquake happened last evening."
Ning Ge’s face turned drastically pale as he snatched the newspaper Xiao Pinshan handed over and skimmed through it rapidly, his expression stern.
"Why did she go on a business trip at this time?" Ning Ge’s cold gaze swept towards Xiao Pinshan.
Xiao Pinshan, intimidated by that glare, sweat breaking out on his forehead, explained the reason for the business trip.
