Chapter 204: Chapter 204 Betrayal

In the anti, Si Chen received news that soone had spotted a very beautiful girl from the rescue team in a village called Zhang Village, a few kiloters away. This girl reportedly saved many people. Without hesitation, Si Chen rushed to Zhang Village. But when he arrived, he found the place deserted. According to the villagers remaining there, there had been a man and a woman before. The woman was called Tong Yao and the man was Gu Hongwei, they had left that morning.

Although he didn’t find them, at least he confird that Tong Yao was with Gu Hongwei and they were safe. He heaved a sigh of relief and hurried back to Shuitang Town.

To return to Kyoto, they would have to pass through Shuitang Town. The earthquake had passed for several days now, and the best ti for a rescue is long gone, leaving only the governnt and doctors to handle the rest. Spontaneously organized rescue teams from various places were also gradually withdrawing. Normally, Si Chen should also be withdrawing now.

The only reason he hadn’t withdrawn was his anxiety for Tong Yao’s wellbeing. That said, these past few days, he hadn’t been idle either and ended up treating many minor casualties.

Since Tong Yao had left Zhang Village, she should also be on the way back. Based on the timing, she should have arrived at Shuitang Town by now.

As it turned out, Si Chen guessed correctly. Tong Yao did indeed plan to withdraw back to Li City. However, Gu Hongwei stepped on a piece of floating floor slab on their way to Shuitang Town and fell directly into a pile of rubble. With great difficulty, Tong Yao managed to rescue him from the rubble, but Gu Hongwei still remained unconscious.

Tong Yao tried to wake him up by pinching his philtrum but there was no response. He was still breathing and apart from a swollen lump on the back of his head like a chicken egg, he had no visible injuries. Most of the people nearby had already fled, and Tong Yao couldn’t find anyone. She wanted to go to Shuitang Town for help imdiately but she wasn’t sure if the town doctors had left.

Considering that there are quite a few holess cats and dogs in their surroundings, Tong Yao didn’t feel comfortable leaving unconscious Gu Hongwei around, and she bit her teeth to carry him and walk to Shuitang Town.

Gu Hongwei was slim but his 1.8 ters tall body was not light at all, like a sack of cent more than anything. Tong Yao grunted as she carried him for about a kiloter and frequently checked his breathing in fear that he would die. Luckily, tough Gu Hongwei was unconscious, he still breathed strongly, much like he was rely asleep.

Hadn’t it been for the large lump at the back of his head, Tong Yao would have suspected that he was feigning unconsciousness.

After carrying him for a kiloter, Tong Yao was all sweaty and her legs were sore. Initially, she was already a bit slly due to the lack of bath in these past few days, and now it was even worse.

Finally, as the sun was about to set, she arrived in Shuitang Town carrying Gu Hongwei. From a distance, she saw several tents. Just as she was about to shout for help, a doctor in a white coat ca out from one of the tents. Seeing Tong Yao carrying soone on her back, the doctor paused, and then yelled to the people in the tent.

"Everyone, co over to help, there’s a casualty."

His yell attracted not only the dical personnel but also the lightly injured patients to help.

Seeing everyone rushing over, Tong Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was so exhausted that she almost passed out. Fortunately, the dical personnel rushed over to help Gu Hongwei and they lifted Gu Hongwei into one of the tents. Seeing Tong Yao’s condition deteriorating, a nurse also walked her into the tent and handed her a bottle of water.

"Are you injured?"

Tong Yao gulped down half a bottle of water and wiped off the sweat from her forehead, before replying: "Thank you, I am fine."

Seeing the doctor checking on Gu Hongwei, Tong Yao quickly reported his condition, "He fell into a pit caused by the earthquake. I think he hit his head. There’s a big bump on the back of his head, but I didn’t see any other external injuries."

Upon hearing that Gu Hongwei had a head injury, the doctor imdiately perford a brain examination. After about ten minutes of examination, the doctors finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don’t worry! He’s fine. He probably just fainted from exhaustion. A good night’s sleep should solve everything."

"He’s asleep?"

Hearing the doctor’s diagnosis, Tong Yao was dumbfounded. She almost couldn’t resist the urge to kick Gu Hongwei awake. After all the strenuous effort, she finally realized Gu Hongwei was rely sleeping. She had worried he might die along the way. Is he a reincarnated pig? She wondered, recalling how he didn’t wake up despite all her tossing and turning on the way.

No, was he pretending to be asleep?

With that thought, Tong Yao stared at Gu Hongwei for a while and then asked the doctor, "Is there a chance that he has been pretending to be asleep?"

Everyone was amused by Tong Yao’s playful deanor. They felt a bit sorry for her. After all, it was quite sothing for her to carry Gu Hongwei such a long distance given her petite figure. Still, they had to tell her the truth: "He really just fainted from exhaustion."

Tong Yao felt sowhat relieved. After all, Gu Hongwei had barely slept and rested over these past few days as he was busy rescuing people. He must have reached his limits.

After sitting next to Gu Hongwei for a while and eating two stead buns handed out by the dical personnel — they were a bit hard yet tasted good — Tong Yao finally relaxed a bit.

For the past few days, she’d only eaten dried sweet potatoes and so boiled vegetables salvaged from the rubble, causing her to lose quite a lot of weight. She wished she had a standalone space, like in novels, to carry stuff. Instead, she ca here empty-handed.

Her ability to understand animal language has saved many people, but it has put her through a hard ti.

Now that she has finally been able to relax after days of exhausting work, she felt sleepy. As she was about to drift to sleep, she heard a nurse ntioning in a conversation that they were about to pack up and leave the town the next day. "We need to wait for Doctor Si to co back, don’t we?" the nurse suddenly said.

Upon hearing that, Tong Yao beca alert imdiately and quickly asked, "The Doctor Si you’re talking about, is he Si Chen?"

"Yes! Do you know Doctor Si?" The nurse looked at Tong Yao in surprise.

The rest of the people also looked at Tong Yao. Honestly, they were amazed by her beauty the mont they saw her. And she had such a kind heart, it was quite surprising to know that she knew Si Chen. It seems that Si Chen is very popular, just as one beauty leaves, another one arrives.

And each one is more beautiful than the previous one.

Once confird that the Doctor Si they ntioned was indeed Si Chen, Tong Yao’s eyes lit up, "I am Tong Yao, his wife."

"Doctor Si is married?" Everyone present was surprised.

They had been all busy rescuing people these days, without the ti or energy to chat. Si Chen looked quite young so everyone thought he was single. They had no idea he was married.

No wonder Si Chen showed no interest in Lin Man, turns out his wife was so beautiful, and so kind-hearted.

Who else would not be satisfied if they had such a beautiful and loving wife? They would no longer look at girls like Lin Man.

In comparison, they initially thought that Lin Man was very beautiful, kind, and brave, which are rare traits in a girl. But after eting Tong Yao, they instantly learned there were always better people and greater worlds out there.
