Many people were injured this time, but fortunately most of them suffered only superficial injuries.
Thanks to sufficient medicine and timely treatment, the overall outcome has exceeded everyone's expectations.
Moreover, having gone through a life-or-death ordeal together, everyone cherishes this hard-won peace even more now.
When Jiang Si came out, she saw a peaceful and harmonious scene.
She even saw two of the most notorious rivals in the family compound.
They actually shook hands, made peace, and sat down together!
When Huo Tingzhou returned, Jiang Si was still awake.
"It's past ten o'clock, why aren't you asleep yet?"
After saying that, Huo Tingzhou sat down on the ground and pulled the person into his arms.
Jiang Si leaned on his shoulder, and the couple snuggled together like that.
"If you're sleepy, you can rest your head on my lap and sleep for a while," Huo Tingzhou said softly.
Jiang Si shook her head, said she wasn't sleepy, and then asked, "What's the situation outside?"
"The rain has subsided a lot and should stop by tomorrow morning."
"However, it will probably take three to four days for the water in the residential compound to drain completely."
"So I can't go back for the next few days, I'll have to sleep on the floor here."
"What’s wrong with you?"
Noticing the low tone in his voice, Jiang Si squeezed his hand. "What happened?"
Huo Tingzhou remained silent for a long time.
"More than a dozen young soldiers were seriously injured. The military doctor said they needed to be operated on as soon as possible, otherwise..."
There was no need to say anything more; Jiang Si understood his feelings at that moment.
The entire military region is currently without water and electricity.
Even with tonight's extra-time repairs, the surgery can't be performed until tomorrow morning at the earliest.
Whether a wound soaked in sewage will become infected later is something even military doctors probably can't guarantee.
"Did you give them the ginseng slices to suck on?"
"Um."
Huo Tingzhou took her hand and placed it to his lips, his gratitude beyond words.
"The army doctor said that it was all thanks to your century-old ginseng, otherwise they might not have made it through the night."
Jiang Si reached out and hugged his neck tightly. "Don't think too much. Maybe everything will be fine after the surgery tomorrow."
Huo Tingzhou bent down following her force.
In the darkness, even though he couldn't see anything, he still managed to pinpoint the location of her lips.
After a light kiss, he said, "Sleep now, I'll stay with you."
After saying that, he gently massaged her scalp again.
Jiang Si wasn't sleepy at first, but as she massaged her, she unknowingly fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was already broad daylight outside.
Jiang Si looked up and saw that the soldiers from the defense unit were dismantling the window frames.
We have no choice but to demolish it; thousands of people have been trapped inside for a whole day.
The smell inside the auditorium now is comparable to that of a biological weapon.
Due to limited space in the auditorium, Jiang Si could only rinse her mouth with salt water and then went to the window to check the situation.
Although I had mentally prepared myself for it yesterday.
But after glancing at the situation outside the window, Jiang Si couldn't help but feel a little alarmed.
Xu Mingjuan sighed, "The roofs of the barracks and canteen have been ripped open so big, I guess the family compound isn't much better off."
Jiang Si comforted her, "What's done is done, there's no use thinking about it now."
"We are already incredibly lucky to be alive."
Xu Mingjuan touched her belly and smiled, "Yes, that's what I think too."
The wind was strong by the window, and both of them were pregnant.
So I only stood there for a short while before going back.
Jiang Si felt that there was nothing wrong with what she said.
But unexpectedly, it was just because of such a comforting word.
She was actually being criticized!
