Back to the 80s, I was a military wife and was pampered by a tough guy with a pure heart.

She couldn't sit still anymore, so she went to see Xiulian to see if she could give her some advice.

However, she unexpectedly got another news from Xiulian——

In the early morning, a huge earthquake occurred in Tanglin City, North China. Hao Yonggang and Ji Lianqi had already rushed to the earthquake at the first moment of dawn.

"There was an earthquake?!" Ye Ying covered her lips in surprise.

No wonder the bed seemed to shake violently several times when she fell asleep last night.

Tanglin City is about 500 kilometers away from here, and you can still feel a slight earthquake.

Xiulian nodded: "Yes, around three or four o'clock in the middle of the night, it is said that many people died."

"Hey, these people are so pitiful! Their lives were taken away while they were still sleeping. Who could have imagined that an earthquake would come at this time?!"

Ye Ying sighed, "Did all three battalions participate in this operation?"

She was a little confused. The two provinces were obviously separated by a distance of 500 kilometers, so why did Ji Lianqi and the others need support?

Couldn’t the nearby provinces provide support?

At this time, Xiulian said: "That's not the case, just Lao Hao and your family's family took the people there."

"Did you just go to a camp?"

"That's right." Xiulian explained while breastfeeding the child: "Old Hao said, let Lian Qi go over to see what's going on first, and then decide whether to send more manpower."

Ye Ying no longer knew what to say.

God seemed to be playing tricks on her. At this moment, something like this happened suddenly and he was 'taken away' again!

I also thought about sorting out the things between them and talking about it, but in the end...

Seeing that Ye Ying didn't say anything, Xiulian added, "Relax, they'll be back when they're done."

Ye Ying sighed and nodded, chatted with Xiulian for a while and then returned to the house.

Now that things have happened, what else can she do except wait here?

After all, the documents to go abroad don’t come out that quickly.

Earthquake zone.

After a day of hard work, Ji Lianqi, Hao Yonggang and others finally arrived in Tangxing City.

This huge earthquake affected 200 kilometers around.

What is sad is that the earthquake area is in the urban coverage area, and the earthquake occurred in a densely populated industrial area.

As far as the eye can see, there are actually collapsed houses, a dilapidated scene.

Because the disaster affected a wide area and the towns and villages were relatively scattered, it was impossible for the people to receive timely rescue simply by relying on the troops dispatched by the province.

After the superiors learned of the major earthquake in Tanglin City, they immediately ordered the surrounding provinces to dispatch reinforcements and make every effort to protect the lives of the affected people.

So after receiving the order from above, Hao Yonggang and others rushed to the front line of the disaster area.

The military vehicle had just entered the worst-hit area when a slight aftershock suddenly occurred and lasted for a few seconds.

Hao Yonggang and Ji Lianqi did not dare to delay. After getting in touch with the local rescue force, they participated in the rescue.

The earthquake disrupted all local transportation, water supply, power supply, and communications, and this industrialized city with a population of one million was razed to the ground in just a few seconds.

There were cries everywhere at the scene.

Some survivors were frantically digging through the rubble with their bare hands, trying to save their loved ones.

There are also those who kneel on the ruins, kowtowing in despair to their dead relatives.

...

Hao Yonggang and Ji Lianqi watched this with mixed feelings in their hearts.

Suddenly, a stumbling figure rushed toward them, and Ji Lianqi quickly caught him with quick eyes and hands.

It was a girl with messy hair, her face was stained with dust and mixed with tears, and her true face could hardly be seen clearly.

The girl was crying while pulling Ji Lianqi and Hao Yonggang, "Can you help me and rescue my father?"

Ji Lianqi frowned: "Where is your father buried?"

The girl cried even harder, pulled them to a crack in the ground, and said desperately: "My dad is inside! During the earthquake, I saw him fall from here with my own eyes! Then, he couldn't be seen anymore."

Ji Lianqi's body was shaken.

The look he looked at the girl was a little more sympathetic.

"If your dad fell from here, then he... would have no chance of surviving."

Although it was cruel, he still wanted to tell her the truth.

The crack in the ground is now only as wide as two fists. If someone really falls from here, the consequences can be imagined.

The girl was only sixteen or seventeen years old. After hearing Ji Lianqi's words, she threw herself on the ground and cried bitterly.

"No, wuwuwu...that's not true! He also wants to help me earn tuition for college!"

Hao Yonggang sighed and asked someone to take her away from the disaster area.

There may be danger here at any time, and they have to get people with vital signs out of here first.

"Go on, brother, let's get started. I think this will be a tough battle." Hao Yonggang said to Ji Lianqi with a wry smile.

Ji Lianqi nodded heavily, turned around and formally joined the rescue effort.

On the other side, Ye Ying, who had been watching the TV for two days, finally saw the scene of the disaster area on the black and white TV.

The severity of the disaster was far beyond her imagination.

The news said that the number of people affected by the disaster was as high as more than 400,000.

This is still only a preliminary statistics.

It was at this time that she suddenly understood why people had to be dispatched from such a far away place to support them.

Maybe one camp in the past was not enough.

Sure enough, the next day, Ye Ning, He Peng and others also left.

Only the military wives were left in the entire compound.

That evening, Xiulian suddenly came to Ye Ying with a solemn face and asked her to answer the phone.

When Ye Ying saw Xiulian's expression, an ominous premonition flashed through her heart.

"What's wrong, Sister Xiulian? Who called?" Did something happen to Ji Lianqi?

Xiulian frowned and hesitated to speak: "This...hey! You will know after you pick it up."

Seeing this, Ye Ying's uneasiness gradually amplified.

When she arrived at her duty station, she felt as if all her strength had been drained from her body.

She knew this wouldn't be a good thing.

"Hello? Who is it?"

"Is that you? Ye Ying."

There seemed to be Wang Qiuhong's voice on the other end of the phone.

But this polite tone was strange to her.

Moreover, why did Wang Qiuhong call him suddenly?

Ye Ying said with full of doubts: "Yes, it's me. What's the matter?"

Wang Qiuhong suddenly started sobbing: "Where is Lian Qi? Where is my A Qi? Where has he gone?"

Ye Ying's heart skipped a beat, and she tightened her hand on the microphone: "There was a big earthquake in Tanglin City, and he rushed over to rescue immediately."

"What's wrong? What happened?"

After a while, Wang Qiuhong choked and said: "His father left this afternoon."

In an instant, Ye Ying's mind went blank.

Ji Xingguo is gone...
