"What?" Chen Fang and Wang Youyou said in unison.
The news was like a bolt from the blue, and it was hard to accept for a while.
Chen Fang's pupils suddenly dilated, his eyes went dark, and he fainted.
Fortunately, Wang Youyou supported him in time.
Wang Youyou was so panicked at this moment that her whole body was shaking and weak.
Even if she was like this, she had to rescue Chen Fang first.
The old man was also frightened by Chen Fang and shouted anxiously: "Chen Fang, Chen Fang, wake up!"
Wang Youyou pinched Chen Fang's philtrum hard, and Chen Fang slowly woke up.
Chen Fang asked excitedly, "Uncle, what did you just say? What happened to my old Sun?"
The old man sighed heavily, looking sad, and shook his head.
Wang Youyou's eyes were moist. She frowned and held back the tears. She advised, "Chen Fang, you have to hold on! You still have a pair of children to take care of. I believe that Deputy Battalion Commander Sun will be blessed by heaven and will return safely."
Chen Fang collapsed on her shoulder and asked tearfully, "Such a huge flood, it washed my son, Old Sun, away. Where did it take him?"
"Old Sun... wuwuwu... Old Sun..."
Chen Fang's cries echoed throughout the compound, and the military wives all left their homes.
As military wives, we all know what this crying means.
Everyone went downstairs to comfort Chen Fang and Wang Youyou.
Wang Youyou's tear point is very low. She couldn't even imagine the scene of Lu Xingfei being washed away by the flood. She kept holding back her tears and told everyone that everything was fine.
It was not until she returned home alone, back to the home that belonged to her and Lu Xingfei, that she could no longer hold back and collapsed.
She sat alone on the sofa in the living room, recalling every little detail of her time with Lu Xingfei, tears streaming down her face like a fountain, unable to be stopped.
Thinking that she would never see Lu Xingfei again, her heart ached so much that she couldn't breathe.
When she traveled through time, she knew that she would never see her parents again, but she knew that it was her own fault that she died. Although it hurt, she could accept it.
But it's different now, she's still alive.
She had to live to accept the loss of a loved one.
Lu Xingfei is the only person she can rely on after she traveled through time.
Now that she has lost her support, what should she do?
For the first time, she felt how terrifying it was to lose someone.
She curled up on the sofa, hugged her knees, and let her tears soak her clothes.
The next day.
Wang Youyou woke up. She cried on the sofa last night until she was tired and fell asleep without realizing it.
Thinking that her record would be released today, she had to force herself to go to the kitchen to boil some hot water and take a bath.
While boiling water, she went to the corridor to collect clothes.
When she saw Lu Xingfei's clothes, she wanted to cry again.
In the past, Lu Xingfei was the most active in collecting clothes.
The thought changed her mind and she told herself that Lu Xingfei would definitely come back, and she would keep Lu Xingfei's clothes and let Lu Xingfei come back to collect them himself.
"Lu Xingfei, these are your own clothes, you should collect them yourself!" She murmured and only collected her own clothes.
After taking a shower and washing her clothes, she put on heavy makeup to hide her fragility.
When she passed the gate of the compound, she took the initiative to greet the old man: "Uncle, good morning! Any news from my old Lu?"
Seeing that her eyes were a little swollen, the old man didn't dare to say anything to comfort her. He sat on the chair and said lightly: "Not yet. They are very busy. The higher-ups will send someone to call back when there is news. Are you at work?"
"Hey! Go to work." Wang Youyou nodded slightly, "I believe my old Lu will come back!"
After saying this, she was afraid that the old man would see that she was about to cry, so she quickly went to catch the bus.
When she got on the bus, she simply put on her sunglasses, looked out the window, and tried to think about work.
No one knows how she gets to work.
Just like that, I work normally during the day and go home to collapse at night.
…
In those days, rescue facilities were backward and most people still lived in mud houses. When floods occurred, many people were left homeless.
For people from poor families, their homes are undoubtedly devastated after the disaster.
This also makes the relief work for the Chenjiawan flood difficult and the subsequent resettlement work heavy.
Until one morning ten days later, a Sunday.
Wang Youyou got up, brushed her teeth, and prepared to go shopping for groceries.
Suddenly, the sound of cars returning was heard in the compound.
This means that the flood control and disaster relief work is over.
The military wives were overjoyed and opened the doors to welcome their loved ones back.
Wang Youyou still had a glimmer of hope, hoping to see Lu Xingfei among those jeeps.
But she stretched her neck to look and wait!
Even after everyone had left, there was still no sign of Lu Xingfei.
She couldn't believe that her Lu Xingfei would never come back.
She just stood there, looking at the jeeps, letting her tears blur her eyes.
Zhang Jingxu, who was sitting in the jeep downstairs, looked at the lonely figure on the second floor of Unit 2, feeling regretful and painful.
If he had not let go at that time, perhaps Lao Lu and Lao Sun would not have been washed away by the flood.
But he had to let go, because he was a soldier! He had to save the people first.
I’m sorry, Wang Youyou.
He really tried his best.
After seeing Wang Youyou walk back into the house, he adjusted his mood, mustered up his courage, and walked towards Unit 2.
Wang Youyou didn't close the door. She walked back to the living room to wipe her tears.
She suddenly lost her direction and didn't know what to do next.
I was completely panicked and scared.
