Mo Qing's face was pale: "It's probably because I have some relationship with her, and I also made it clear that I would cooperate with all her requests."
Song Wenguang listened to Mo Qing's words, his expression unreadable: "Brother Mo is quite pragmatic and knows how to handle people."
With her last bit of strength, Mo Qing stared at Song Wenguang: "Because I believe everything she says, I believe she has the ability to do this to us again, and I don't want this to happen again. Next time, I'm afraid I really won't be alive to play this game."
The others who were secretly observing the two of them also pondered these words, including Song Wenguang, who was facing Mo Qing.
The reason Song Wenguang and his group survived was entirely due to the protection of their bodyguards, who were all highly skilled individuals whose physical abilities had undergone mutations.
Even so, protected by two bodyguards, he still had an extremely difficult time walking through the dangerous earthquake and flood disaster.
If it weren't for the timely arrival of the animal rescue team, they might have really lost their lives. But Li Ke, carrying Mo Qing in the raging wind and rain, amidst flying sand and stones, still maintained agile and steady posture, which was truly remarkable.
The roar of the rescue plane overhead grew closer, and people carrying rescue kits climbed down rope ladders and jumped into the water.
Song Wenguang sat up from the floating platform and patted Mo Qing on the shoulder: "Wake up, someone is coming to rescue us, just hang in there a little longer."
The rescue team released an inflatable speedboat and quickly came to the group: "The storm may come again at any time. We will help you board the plane and leave quickly."
When Mo Qing opened her eyes again, she was already in the military hospital in the first ring road of the safe zone, with Mo Bao'er, whose eyes were red, waiting by her bedside.
Mo Qing regained some strength and patted her daughter's head with a smile: "My darling, you're so big now, why are you still crying?"
Mo Bao'er, however, was unconvinced: "Do you know how dangerous this situation was for you? No matter what Li Jia's true identity is when the investigation is completed, I will never forgive her for what she did!"
Mo Qing explained, "This is a sudden natural disaster that no one could have predicted. We can't blame her. Besides, if she hadn't protected me all this time, I wouldn't be alive today. Bao'er, I hope you and she can still be as well as before."
Mo Bao'er frowned: "That's a paradox. If she hadn't taken you out without permission, you wouldn't have encountered any of these things."
Hearing Mo Bao'er's words, Mo Qing asked with some concern, "What's the talk outside right now?"
Looking around, Mo Qing cautiously added, "This time, we all agreed to go out for a walk; it wasn't Li Jia who forced us."
Mo Bao'er rolled her eyes helplessly: "You guys can really say such a terrible explanation without batting an eye. But you can say whatever you want, and we naturally have our own understanding and opinions."
There are all sorts of rumors circulating outside, and most of the people who have returned say the same thing as you—that's the surface level. But whether they're saying anything else behind the scenes is hard to say.
Mo Qing was exhausted, so she closed her eyes to rest for a while before speaking again: "What is the attitude from above?"
Mo Bao'er was also puzzled: "So many people were mobilized from above. We originally thought they were furious with Li Jia and that this matter would be difficult to resolve. But we didn't expect that they seem to have accepted your explanation. After analyzing the situation, my uncle said that the higher-ups value Li Jia very much and treat her with great courtesy. I'm afraid Sister Li has some secrets."
Mo Qing didn't say anything more after hearing this, only saying, "Arrange for me to be discharged. I want to go home to recuperate. This hospital feels a bit stuffy."
Mo Bao'er: "Wait a little longer. It's been pouring rain outside for a week now, and many places below the safe zone are flooded. Once the rain subsides a bit, I'll apply for your discharge and send you home."
Mo Qing could only suppress his anxious feelings. Here, he couldn't very well ask Bao'er how the investigation into Li Ke's background was going.
Song Wenguang was in good health. After getting off the plane, he was escorted home by his bodyguards. His wife was happy to see him return and had prepared everything she needed in advance.
As soon as Song Wenguang got home, he took a hot shower, a nutritious meal was prepared, and the family doctor was waiting outside. The arrangements were very thoughtful.
Lying in the bathtub, Song Wenguang asked, "Did Madam receive the rescue notification long ago, which is why she prepared so thoroughly?"
Madam Song shook her head: "Yes, we received a radio call. It was from Li Jia. She said you'll be home soon, that you've endured a lot of wind and rain, and that we should prepare to welcome you."
Song Wenguang sat up in shock: "When did you receive the notification?"
Madam Song: "Just two hours ago, not only I received the notification, but several other wives at the base also received the notification."
Song Wenguang sat for a while, his expression unreadable, but he didn't speak again. Madam Song draped a towel over him and asked if he wanted to get up.
After a while, Song Wenguang came to his senses and instructed, "Go and call the other ladies to inquire about the health of the heads of the families who have just returned. Then tell them that you need to call and check on the situation of Chief Qiushan. We'll go out for a walk together. We've been very grateful for Chief Li's care along the way. I wonder how she's doing? If there's anything we can do to help, we certainly won't refuse."
Although Madam Song had some doubts, she was used to listening to her husband. She told him not to soak for too long and to have others keep watch outside and listen to the sounds inside before doing what her husband asked her to do.
The continuous rain meant that Mo Qing stayed in the hospital for two more days, during which time other members of her family came to visit her.
