Behind the reporter, Lu Ti saw a familiar figure.
"Husband, husband! Come quick!" Lu Ti shouted, directly summoning Zhen Lei.
"What's wrong!"
"Look, isn't that Yuzhi!"
"It's him, it's this kid." Zhen Lei slapped his thigh, confirming that he hadn't misjudged the situation.
How could he be wrong about the boy who grew up around them?
"What was that brat doing at the earthquake site! It was so dangerous!" Lu Ti was both angry and anxious.
"It was probably arranged by the leadership."
"He doesn't know how to do rescue work, and he's not a professional. What's the point of him going there? What kind of leader is this, making such a terrible decision?"
"Oh, my dear wife, you can't say things like that." Zhen Lei immediately covered Lu Ti's mouth: "Walls have ears, let's not cause trouble for the children."
“I know. But…” Lu Ti pointed at Ji Yuzhi, whose face was covered in soot, and felt heartbroken.
"Children have their own ideas too, don't rush them."
Zhen Lei comforted Lu Ti, but for the rest of the time, the two of them stared intently at the television, searching everywhere for Ji Yuzhi.
When Lu Ti saw Ji Yuzhi go in with the rescue team, her heart was in her throat.
"This child... he's going to get hurt..."
Lu Ti dared not look.
Zhen Lei was also worried.
...
The MG team's Summer Split is in full swing in L City.
A match has just ended, and MG's matches for today are over.
A group of people were having dinner in the hotel restaurant.
Calling it dinner is an understatement; it's more like a late-night snack.
"It's so late, why is the restaurant still so lively?" The coach said, eating and looking around.
"Who knows, maybe they're our fans or something, pretending to eat here so they can secretly see us," the support player said with a grin.
"No." The jungler walked over and pointed to the television not far away: "I just came over and heard them talking about the earthquake."
"An earthquake? Another earthquake?" The top laner shook his head. "This year has been anything but peaceful. Wasn't there an earthquake somewhere a while ago?"
"Earthquakes are nothing; our hometown floods every day. We're pretty used to it."
"This is too tragic..."
Lu Lin and Yuan Yuan ate quietly, not participating in the group's discussion.
"Where was the earthquake?" the coach suddenly interjected amidst the heated discussion.
"It seems to be City B. I didn't notice!" the jungler said.
"Where!" Yuan Yuan slammed the fork in her hand onto the table.
"Um?"
"Where did you say the earthquake occurred?" Yuan Yuan stared wide-eyed.
"B...B City..."
The jungler was startled by her.
Yuan Yuan quickly took out her phone; without even checking, the number one trending topic was it.
An 8.2 magnitude earthquake struck City B.
"What's wrong?" Lu Lin asked.
"Qingyan's concert is in City B!" Yuan Yuan looked up again, her eyes filled with horror.
"You mean, Tian Tian is in City B?" Lu Lin jumped up, his chair hitting the chair of the person behind him.
"Yes, Qingyan and Tiantian are both here!" Yuanyuan panicked and didn't know what to do.
"Make a call, make a call." Lu Lin took out his phone and called Tian Tian directly.
Yuan Yuan also called Ye Qingyan.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is currently switched off. Sorry..."
"Sweetie's phone is off."
"Qingyan refused to accept it."
Lu Lin thought for two seconds, then turned and ran.
"Hey, where are you guys going!" The coach and manager stood up, and saw Yuan Yuan also running out.
"What's going on?"
The team members were completely baffled.
Yuan Yuan took out her phone and called Ye Qingyan and Taozi, but no one answered.
"Call Ye Qingyan's management company; they should know the address. The concert address."
Neither of them knew the company's phone number.
Yuan Yuan suddenly had an idea and directly searched on Weibo: "Ye Qingyan Concert".
The first result that came up was a broadcast of the earthquake.
She steadied herself and scrolled down, piecing together a fact from the snippets of comments from netizens.
"How about it?"
"The theater... collapsed." Upon hearing this, Yuan Yuan went limp and collapsed to the ground.
"It collapsed..." That was all she could say.
"Holy shit!" Lu Lin kicked the pillar in front of the hotel hard, then took out his phone and called his third uncle, who was the most powerful among his brothers.
"What is it?" Lu Kai's voice was cold.
"Third Uncle, there's been an earthquake in City B. Tian Tian is there. Try to find her location," Lu Lin said quickly.
"Is Tian Tian here?" Lu Kai's voice changed.
"Yes, she went to Ye Qingyan's concert, and now the theater has collapsed. Tian Tian doesn't know what's going on, so hurry up."
"knew."
Lu Kai hung up the phone immediately, leaving the people in the conference room behind him behind, and strode out.
"Get me in touch with the person in charge in City B and find out if there were any casualties at the Beijing Film and Television Theater."
Zhen Tian's situation in City B cannot be kept secret. Lu Kai knew this.
He acted as an intermediary and informed Tian Tian that she was in City B.
The entire family was in an uproar.
When Zhen Lei and Lu Ti learned that Tian Tian might be in the earthquake zone, they almost couldn't catch their breath.
“Sweetie! My daughter…” Lu Ti’s breathing became rapid.
"It's alright, don't panic." Zhen Lei seemed to know why Ji Yuzhi had appeared in City B, but now was not the time to think about it. Compared to the Ji family, the Zhen family knew far fewer people.
Without hesitation, Zhen Lei called Ji Quanzhou directly.
Having briefly described the situation, Ji Quanzhou naturally understood the gravity of the matter.
He made a phone call home and only then did he realize how serious the matter was.
They only found out when Ji Quanzhou called back...
"The hotel where Zhen Tian was staying has completely collapsed, and Yu Zhi is on site assisting with the rescue."
This is what the helicopter captain told everyone.
Upon hearing this, Lu Ti rolled her eyes and fainted.
Zhen Lei's figure swayed, unable to believe what his daughter, who had grown up safely, was going through at this moment.
The Zhen family fell into a deathly silence.
"I'm going to City B." Jin Ze couldn't sit still any longer. "I'm going to contact my former teammates to help with the rescue. You guys wait for my news at home."
"Don't go. We're already worried enough about Tian Tian, let alone you. We can't handle it."
"Trust me." Jin Ze walked straight out of the Zhen family's house.
No one stopped them, because if they didn't know that going would only be a hindrance, none of them would want to go to the site.
As soon as Jin Ze left the Zhen family's house, he contacted his former military unit and some of his retired colleagues.
After contacting a small team, Ji Quanzhou arranged for them to have a helicopter crew ready to move at any time, which headed straight to the disaster center in City B.
Even from the helicopter, the scene of City B was like a living hell.
The tall buildings are all leaning or falling over.
Fireworks soared into the sky, cries echoed everywhere.
