Seeing the familiar boy running among them, Emily immediately stopped him and asked, "What happened?"
The boy pointed to a place near the mountain. "The rescue team found more than a dozen survivors in the front ruins. It seems to be a factory. When the earthquake occurred, many people were trapped on the ground floor!"
While they were talking, a soldier ran to them in a hurry, and the cap on his head was a little tilted. "Dr. Chin, we just found a survivor whose leg was pressed by stones and he can't move. The rescue team is trying to rescue him. But the survivor has a serious heart disease and has begun to breathe hard and spit blood now! It's too dangerous below. The rescue space is temporarily supported by air cushion, and it will not last long. People need to take the risk of life to rescue. No doctor dares go down now..."
Humanity was being tested at this moment.
Although doctors shouldered the responsibility of saving lives, they were also ordinary people after all, with emotions, desires and fear. Not everyone was like like
soldiers who made preparations to sacrifice at any time in order to protect the country and people.
"I'll go there!" Simon said without hesitation.
"Simon..."
Emily grabbed his big hand and looked at his left leg. "Your leg is still injured!"
On this bumpy way, some blood oozed out of the re-bandaged wounds in the hospital. After all, the wound was long and deep, with more than 20 stitches. If he joined in the rescue, it would probably be more serious.
"It doesn't matter. Saving people is the most important thing now!" Simon curled his lips and smiled faintly. He touched her head and said, "Emily, you go back to the tent first, or interview. Now we have found a new survivor. You should report the news soon. I am fine. I will come out after saving the person!"
After that, he was ready to lift his leg and follow the soldier.
However, Emily didn't let him go. Instead, she held his big hand tightly. Seeing his mouth twitching lightly, she knew that he must have mistakenly thought that she wanted to stop him. However, she quickly said, "I'll go with you!"
She understood that he wanted to save the dead and heal the wounded. She also admired his manly charm at this moment despite the danger, but she didn't want to experience the shock of the aftershock yesterday again. Instead of being scared outside, she would rather be with him.
"No!" Simon frowned tightly and refused decisively. "It's dangerous inside. Didn't you just hear it? It's like the situation in the building yesterday. It's likely to be more dangerous. The place is in the underground floor and there's a mountain behind. Now it's all supported by the air cushion, so it's more dangerous. We won't be as lucky as yesterday!"
"Then I'll go too!" Emily insisted.
Simon pursed his lips and refused to easily agree.
Emily gritted her teeth and said, "Even if you don't agree, I'll secretly follow you inside!" Seeing that he still disagreed, she pursed her lips, pinched his thick palm, and said seriously, "Mr. Chin, we're a couple!"
Simon's Adam's apple rolled and he satared at her with a meaningful look.
He clasped his fingers with hers and took her into his arms with a little force. Then he asked the soldier next to him, "May I take one more person?"

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
