Chen Shuning was lucky. Although she was in another world, she met someone she could trust. He Chaoyang was that person.
However, when the terrible earthquake disaster truly struck, countless lives were lost in an instant, and Chen Shuning, an ordinary person, had his psychological defenses collapse instantly.
So she poured out everything to He Chaoyang without reservation—telling that she was not a native of this world, but a lonely soul from another land; that she had perished in a sea of fire in her previous life, and that her soul had inexplicably possessed Chen Shuning in this era.
Anyone could have a mental breakdown under such immense pressure for so long.
Therefore, Chen Shuning no longer cared whether He Chaoyang would feel disgusted by this secret, nor did he have time to consider how their future would develop.
At this moment, all she needed was an outlet to release the secret that had been buried deep in her heart and suppressed for so long.
After recounting her ordeal, Chen Shuning stared at He Chaoyang like a statue, her eyes filled with anticipation and tension, as if she were waiting for the judge to pronounce her fate.
After listening to Chen Shuning's story, He Chaoyang's doubts gradually dissipated, and all the things he couldn't understand before became clear.
He finally understood why his wife often acted as if she knew everything beforehand; it turned out that she came from another parallel universe and had experienced soul travel.
Although He Chaoyang was still confused about the concepts of parallel universes and soul travel, there was one thing he was very clear about: his ability to meet and fall in love with Chen Shuning must have been an arrangement of fate.
After all, how could they have met by such a coincidence if they were originally in different times and eras? He felt deeply fortunate and grateful for this wonderful fate.
So, under Chen Shuning's expectant yet apprehensive gaze, He Chaoyang slowly pulled her into his arms and said softly, "Thank you, thank you Shuning, thank you for traveling through time to come to my side, thank you for being willing to become my wife, thank you for trusting me so much to tell me your secret. Marrying you is the greatest blessing for me, He Chaoyang. Thank you, Shuning, I love you."
Shuning, you must promise me one thing: what we said today is over. No matter what happens in the future, you must never mention this matter again, and you must never tell anyone, understand?
Shuning, I really can't lose you..."
Hearing He Chaoyang's words, Chen Shuning's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down. She immediately threw herself into He Chaoyang's warm embrace and burst into tears.
This heavy secret had been weighing on Chen Shuning so much that she could hardly breathe, but now that someone was finally able to share the burden with her, Chen Shuning instantly felt incredibly relaxed and at ease, and even her breathing became much smoother.
However, Chen Shuning then thought of He Chaoyang's special status as a soldier, and a sense of worry welled up in her heart. So she held He Chaoyang's hand tightly.
She said anxiously, "Honey, you must believe me. The casualties caused by this earthquake are extremely high. More than 90 percent of the buildings in the city have been completely destroyed."
Therefore, the government will definitely dispatch troops to the disaster area to carry out rescue operations as soon as possible.
So, honey, given your current position, you'll probably be one of the first rescue workers to rush to the disaster area, right?
He Chaoyang only needed to think for a moment to realize that if the earthquake was as serious as his wife said, then their unit would definitely become the vanguard in the rescue of Tang City.
Looking at his wife who was about to give birth, He Chaoyang felt extremely reluctant, but as a soldier, when many people urgently needed his rescue, he had no choice but to obey orders.
Chen Shuning said these words not to stop He Chaoyang. She had seen a lot of video footage of the earthquake, and if the current situation allowed, she would even like to go to the earthquake-stricken area to participate in the rescue work.
Therefore, when Chen Shuning saw He Chaoyang's conflicted expression, she smiled and patted his hand gently, comforting him, "Go in peace, but you must promise me that you will take care of your safety when you get there."
Such a massive earthquake is often followed by strong aftershocks, so please ensure your own safety during the rescue operation. Your child and I will be waiting for your safe return home.
He felt deeply comforted by his understanding wife and held Chen Shuning's hand tightly, assuring her, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back safely."
Next, Chen Shuning prepared a lot of useful and portable anti-inflammatory medicines and other items for He Chaoyang, and of course, spiritual spring water was also indispensable.
After making these preparations, the two left the space. Just then, the phone rang, just as they had expected. The call was an order for He Chaoyang to return to the team immediately.
He Chaoyang had just hung up the phone when it rang again.
This time it was Grandma He. As soon as the call connected, I heard the old lady's anxious voice: "Chaoyang, how is Shuning? Is she scared? Why didn't anyone answer the phone just now? It scared Grandma to death."
The old lady had called while the two were in the space, but no one answered, which frightened the two elderly people on the other end. Grandpa He immediately took the driver and came here.
The old lady originally wanted to come along, but the old man said that someone should stay at home to keep in touch with them, which persuaded her to stay.
"Grandma, Shuning and I are both fine, but I just received orders to return to the army immediately. I need to trouble Grandpa to send someone to pick up Shuning tomorrow morning, otherwise I'm worried about leaving her alone at home."
