Chapter 451: Having News About Them

Yan Huan wiped her face again, smiling. She did not look pretty but rather in a mess. Before the sight of a catastrophe, there is no film celebrity, no woman, only a female soldier, although I have already been discharged from the military.

Yan Huan cracked a smile, but at this moment, her eyes were fogged up. The feeling of experiencing life and death, regardless of whether it was herself or others could not be put into words with a touching response anymore.

She turned around again, and joined the rescue team. At this juncture, a middle-aged man in front of her looked over his shoulder, and was instructing others to lift the floor slabs which were blocking the bottom.

“Start from here and focus on this part.” He said as he was holding one side of the floor slabs. At this point in time, only his regularly straight back could be seen.

Moreover, the continuous echoes of his voice across the atmosphere made him sound like a backbone of the team, allowing these people without families to gather together as a team and brought them hope and expectation.

“Listen to my command.”

“One, two, three, up.”

He continued to speak even when his voice was hoarse until it was almost completely gone.

Yan Huan ran over, squatting down on the ground and started to move the rocks with others. A little girl was successfully rescued, and later another one. All these were children. They were all crying with their eyes opened up widely for being frightened.

“Be quick, these are all children.”

Lu Jin hurriedly said to make sure others dig faster. It was not known whether it was a collapsed school or the school was organizing an event for the children as there were mostly children around the age of eight to nine years old. How could they stand this? How could they bear it?

The medical staff rushed over. Yan Huan carried a child and ran forward. At this moment, it began raining again. The rainwater fell from her hair like a stream of water droplets and flowed down to her chin, not sure if it was tears or rainwater. But regardless of whether it was tears or rainwater, she would still wipe them dry, stood up and rushed to the most dangerous spot to save others.

At this time, this precious scene was finally spread across the television. From the start of the earthquake, for exactly 24 hours, the condition of Serene City was first shown to the public.

Those people with the faces of survival, those elders who were sobbing and those innocent and crying children being scared silly gathered at the tarp. They were all casualties with different injuries.

“Oh my god!” Once Luo Lin saw the woman who was carrying a child, she did not say a word for half a day. She hastily fetched out her cell phone to call Lu Yi.

“It’s me, Lu Yi! You faster watch the news on Five Sets. Right now.”

Lu Yi was accompanying Ye Shuyun who did not eat or drink for the whole day. Her fingers were cold, refusing to let others feel her body temperature.

Lu Yi put down his cell phone, and then grabbed the remote control to turn on the television while Ye Shuyun was constantly staring at the walky-talky in her arms.

Upon turning on the television, his heart was as though the rain, suppressing himself as he felt ill and hard to breath.

The camera shot showed the mess and ruins. Everywhere was full of debris with soldiers in uniform, medical staff in uniform as well as civilians running around.

The camera focused on a woman with one hand holding a cup of instant noodles, and another hand grabbing a bottle of water. She was eating and swallowing with all her might. She seemed to have choked herself, thus, she hurriedly took a sip of water.

At this time, a hand stretched out and tapped her shoulder.

Lu Yi’s pupils dilated abruptly as he placed his hand on Ye Shuyun’s shoulder.

“Mom...” He cried out to Ye Shuyun, but she was still not moving with the walky-talky in her arms, not willing to say a word as though she had lost her soul with a stupefied expression on her pale face.

“Mom, Dad is still alive, he’s still alive.”

Lu Yi’s fingers tightened up, causing the flesh on Ye Shuyun’s shoulder to feel the pain.

Ye Shuyun suddenly lifted her face, “What did you say? Your dad is still alive? He is still alive?”

“Yes, Mom. Look here.” Lu Yi pointed to the television. His father was still alive and had saved many people. Huan Huan was there as well. As he was saying that, he felt as if his heart had a hole, even between breathing in and out, he could feel the sudden excruciating pain.

Ye Shuyun kept her eyes wide open, fixing her gaze at the television. The camera was constantly focusing on that person. He calmly instructed the people on the scene to carry out the rescue plan. Although he was in a big mess, his face was full of mud, and his hair tangled up, Ye Shuyun could still recognize him at first glance since he was her other half whom she had lived and get along with all her life.

Lu Jin’s back was regularly straight because he was a soldier. He started to join the army since he was 18 years old, and now he was already 50 years old, but still a soldier.

His sitting and standing posture were always dignified and down-to-earth. He was a soldier, a real soldier.

“Lu Jin, the old man...” The walky-talky on Ye Shuyun’s hand fell to the ground. If Lu Jin heard the phrase, ‘the old man’ he would probably start to cry. He was still very young and in his prime life. He might be aged but still vigorous, so, all in all, he was not considered old.

Ye Shuyun covered her face and began crying again. The only thing Lu Yi could do was to pat on his mother’s shoulder, comforting her silently.

He bent his body to take the walky-talky, and then placed it on the side of the table.

His eyes were fixed on the television, and once in a while, the camera would display his lady. She was like a man for she would join a group of men to save others. She would eat a few bites of the instant noodles when she was hungry and drink a mouthful of water when she felt thirsty, but sometimes, she did not even have time for a drink.

She could carry a man who was a lot taller than her. Her clothes were drenched and her face was dirty, even her hair was full of all sorts of ashes. She was not a film celebrity now, not Yan Huan, but a soldier, a female soldier.

At this moment, his cell phone rang again, but now Lu Yi’s heart was already at a peace of mind and stable because they were still alive. His family was not separated, they all would reunite for sure.

He fished out his phone, and realized the call was from the Ye family.

He accepted the phone call, and the first thing he realized was Ye Chuji’s heartbroken voice.

“Lu Yi, Xinyu that boy is also at Serene City. I still dare not tell your grandfather about it. Can you help to search and locate this boy?”

Lu Yi nearly dropped his phone. What is this little brat doing at Serene City? After letting go of his worries a while ago, his heart became tense again.

“Rest assured, Uncle! I will look into this right away.”
