Chapter 698 Everything Will Improve

They knew very well that the current situation was extremely critical - the load-bearing wall on the first floor was crumbling, and people did not dare to step forward to rescue them. Their bodies had been trapped in the small space for a long time, and they were gradually numb and weak, and breathing was difficult. At the same time, in order to keep the table from collapsing, they all used their remaining strength to support it, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

It was dark at night, and the two could only sense the fear from each other's panting. "Lao Ma..." Zhang Jian's voice was almost inaudible.

"Don't talk, save your energy." Ma Hui replied with his eyes closed and his head against the table.

"I heard someone calling us outside."

"I know, my voice is almost hoarse."

The conversation between the two was brief but powerful, and they encouraged each other to keep going. But as time went on, they could no longer hold on...

At this time, busy figures outside were working hard to use wood to prop up the building. A person in charge asked in a low voice, "Secretary, is it safe inside?"

Secretary Peng looked heavy-hearted, and felt something was wrong. "Hurry up and find a way to rescue them!" He then called on more people to join the rescue. At this moment, an urgent call came from the rear - a team of reinforcements arrived!

These new faces were sent by the factory to look for the trapped workers. Several workers in the team brought professional equipment and went directly to Secretary Peng who was directing the on-site operations.

"Secretary! These are technical experts from the machinery branch of the head office! They have specially brought all the things that can be used to ask for your help!"

Secretary Peng was deeply surprised by the sudden arrival of the rescue team, especially Manager Yang. He knew this person, who was a well-known excellent engineer and one of the chief engineers who managed multiple projects. "Everyone, please follow me." He led everyone to quickly engage in rescue work.

Secretary Peng immediately briefed the high-level leader on the latest developments and stressed the urgency of the situation. At the same time, Wangcai (a clever dog) suddenly ran over, sniffed the gaps between the rubble for a while, and then excitedly barked, while the voice of assistant Wei'er came from the other end of the headset - "Find the two survivors in the corner." Then, Manager Yang decisively issued a series of instructions to ensure that the rescue work was carried out efficiently and orderly. Subsequently, with the joint efforts of everyone, the two old colleagues, Master Chen (Ma Hui in the text) and Master Zhang, who were the most seriously injured and in a semi-comatose state, were successfully transferred safely from the predicament.

As the injured were out of danger and follow-up medical support was in place, the whole process demonstrated the collective strength and sense of responsibility. Yang Xiaotao's behavior of going deep into the scene to rescue without regard for his own safety left a deep impression on everyone. Although he was exhausted after completing the task, he knew that his efforts were worth it.

During the process of sending the patient to the hospital, Xu Mingying watched everything silently and began to think about some of her previous attitudes. She realized that this young and promising but low-key young man not only shouldered heavy responsibilities, but also always put the safety of employees first.

Lin Xiaofeng nodded, "We followed the vanguard troops."

"They first headed south to Xinshun, where the situation was more serious."

"Everything will improve once the main force arrives."

Secretary Zhang nodded, with a hint of excitement on his face.

"The superiors will not forget us."

“The people will remember us, too.”

Lin Xiaofeng said softly, and everyone's heart was shocked. Su Mingying nodded solemnly.

As long as there is a helping hand, there will be hope.

The crowd carried the two injured people to the first aid station. Many doctors, nurses and country doctors gathered around, and everyone was busy helping.

"Let me see."

Just as everyone was carrying the two injured people in, an old man came over with a stethoscope and immediately began to examine them.

Lin Xiaofeng was holding a pack of instant noodles in his hand, eating them with a crunch.

Beside him, Zhou Wei and several others also held a bag each.

Su Mingying looked at the round instant noodles and held it carefully in her hands, not wanting to spill even a single crumb.

This kind of instant noodles must be a product from the old city.

It really is, the Forbidden City.

"Well, I'm weak and need nutrition."

"The bones are fine, just rest and recuperate."

After checking, the old man confirmed that the two were not in danger of life and walked out.

Lin Xiaofeng finally felt relieved. He walked over and sat aside, leaning against Zhou Wei. He picked up the kettle and drank from it in small sips.

Everyone was silent, watching the scene in front of them quietly.

Lin Xiaofeng finished a pack of instant noodles and took out another pack from his backpack. At this moment, he suddenly saw a pair of tender little feet appear in front of him.

Lin Xiaofeng looked up.

There stood a little girl in front of him.

She was wearing a worn gray coat, was slightly taller than Duanwu, her hair was covered in dirt, and her bright big eyes were staring at the instant noodles in Lin Xiaofeng's hand.

In an instant, Lin Xiaofeng felt a pain in his nose and tears almost burst out.

"Little boy, are you hungry?"

The little girl didn't answer. She just put her hand under her nose, stared at the instant noodles, and swallowed her saliva unconsciously.

Lin Xiaofeng noticed her bare feet, which were covered with dust and blood. At that moment, his heart ached so much that he could not help but pick up the little girl and put her on his knees.

The little girl was as obedient as a cat.

Perhaps in her young mind, this sudden change has made her lose her consciousness of resistance.

But after this incident, the deep scars left behind will be unforgettable and difficult to heal.

Lin Xiaofeng looked at the little girl with pity, carefully broke the instant noodles into pieces, and put them to her mouth bit by bit.

The girl ate slowly.

"Eat slowly! Drink some water."

Lin Xiaofeng handed over the kettle.

No matter what the food was, the little girl accepted it with pleasure, and the two of them fed each other.

Zhou Wei covered his face with his hands.

Along the way, I saw so many children, elderly people and wounded people, and I thought I was so strong.

But this scene reminded him of his daughter who was far away at home.

If his Xiaoyu became like this, he would feel heartbroken and heartbroken!

Zhou Wei wasn't the only one who had this reaction.

When Su Mingying saw all this, she couldn't help wiping away her tears. She took the instant noodles from Lin Xiaofeng's hand and handed it to the girl to continue eating. Tears also began to well up in the little girl's eyes.

"Thank...thank you!"

Hearing this childish voice, Lin Xiaofeng finally couldn't help it. He turned his head to the side, tears falling silently.

"Good boy, good boy."

He smiled and turned back, "What's your name, little girl?"

The girl was too timid to answer, but couldn't help bursting into tears!

"Stop crying, be good."

Lin Xiaofeng hurriedly coaxed her, rummaging in his bag and taking out a large White Rabbit candy for her, "Uncle gives you candy, it's sweet and delicious."
