Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Lu’s Confession 5_1 Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Lu’s Confession 5_1 I don’t know how long it had been, but just as the two of them were about to collapse from exhaustion, they finally heard a slight movent coming from above.
“Soone must be coming to rescue us!” Xia Ningxing imdiately knocked with more excitent, trying to signal that they were still alive.
Because if the rescuers confird there were survivors below, they could be prioritized for rescue.
As expected, the rescue team above heard the noise and shouted urgently, “There’s movent in this spot; there must be people underneath. Hurry, soone co and give a hand!”
With everyone’s help, Xia Ningxing and Lu Tingli finally saw daylight again.
The dical team imdiately draped a black cloth over their heads to prevent the sunlight from harming their eyes.
“This man is injured; get a stretcher quick!” a dic exclaid upon noticing the injury on Lu Tingli’s leg.
“Lu, you’re injured?” Hearing this, Xia Ningxing imdiately lifted the black cloth from her head, enduring the pain of the sunlight searing her eyes to look at him.
The sunlight caused her imnse pain, but it was nothing compared to the heartache she felt upon seeing the mangled flesh on his leg.
The dry bloodstains indicated he had been injured for quite so ti.
Xia Ningxing suddenly beca angry, her eyes reddening with both anger and heartache, “Why didn’t you tell you were injured before?”
This liar!
He had pretended everything was fine and stayed with her underground for that long.
“Baby Xing…” Lu Tingli also dropped the black cloth from his head, his gaze at her filled with a hint of vulnerability; even his voice grew softer, “I didn’t want you to worry about , but I promise, this is the first and the last ti I’ll deceive you. Will you forgive , please?”
As the dical staff prepared to take him to dress his wound, he stubbornly stood in place, insisting on waiting for her answer. His dark eyes, filled with trepidation and nervousness, fearing that she would be angry at having been deceived by him.
“Forgive! Of course, I’ll forgive you! Stop talking and get your wound dressed quickly!” Xia Ningxing saw his stubbornness and instantly beca as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, rushing him urgently.
Fortunately, although his leg looked very severe, it was just a superficial injury, not affecting the bone; he would be alright after a rest of about ten days or so.
Xia Ningxing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She thought so, how could a man with the male protagonist’s halo be so unlucky!
They were in a simple white tent for treating wounds, and while Lu Tingli’s injury was being attended to, Xia Ningxing heard her family’s voices.
“Bao’er!”
She was startled, then turned her head to see her parents and several brothers had all arrived, except for Tuanzi.
Originally, Tuanzi wanted to co too, but such a place was not suitable for a child, so everyone refused, leaving the nanny and the grandmother to look after him at ho.
Xia Ningxing was both shocked and overjoyed, quickly walking towards them: “Dad, Mom, brothers, why have you all co?”
“Bao’er!” Mrs. Xia’s eyes turned red swiftly when she saw her, holding her tightly while weeping profusely, “You girl, what are you doing here? Do you want to worry us to death?”
Heaven knows how scared and fearful she was upon hearing about the earthquake in Tom City, worried that she might never see her again!
Seeing her eyes full of concern, swollen from crying, Xia Ningxing felt unbearably guilty, “Mom, I’m sorry, I just wanted to see Lu and ca looking for him…”
Xia Ningxing deliberately omitted the crucial point.
If they knew she was aware of the impending earthquake and still recklessly ca to take Lu Tingli away, they would surely scold her to death.
And perhaps they would then take their anger out on the big boss.
