Love So Sweet

338 Zhang Li Xue was Not with Them

Zhang Li Xue shifted her body in the dark. Her lips were pursed tightly as she tried to bear the pain. After successfully leaning on the pillar, Zhang Li Xue could not help but cry.

She could not see what was going on, but Zhang Li Xue knew that her legs were injured.

Zhang Li Xue moved her hands around to touch anything within her reach. A breath of relief escaped her once she found that her bag was still beside her.

However, her bag was in the rubble. With a few tugs, Zhang Li Xue managed to pull it away.

The slight movement made her so tired.

Zhang Li Xue inhaled a few deep breaths. Then, she took out her phone, wanting to call her father. However, she soon found out that her phone was no longer working.

The screen broke.

No matter how many times Zhang Li Xue pressed the button, she could not switch on her phone.

Zhang Li Xue could only lean on the pillar again in disappointment.

.....

Tears streamed down her face.

She could not help but worry about her father. Zhang Li Xue hoped that her father was not in the building when the earthquake happened. She did not want anything to happen to him.

Her father would be worried when he could not find her.

She wanted to let her father know that she was safe, but had no way to contact him.

Zhang Li Xue wiped the tears from her face. She bit her lips as she told herself that she was going to survive this.

At this time, Zhang Li Xue did not know just how long has it been since she had been trapped inside the building. But, she knew that her father would be looking for her.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Li Xue then tried to shout for help. However, her voice was too weak and she could not hear anything other than her own voice.

She did not know where she was or where was everyone else.

...

Bai Qi and the others arrived at the side just after midnight.

When they arrived. There were a lot of people around the site. Everyone was working together to remove the rubble to save the people who were trapped underneath the collapsed building.

His gaze was on the building. Bai Qi swept his gaze around the place, trying to guess his girlfriend’s position.

“You guys are here as well. Thank you.”

Hearing the voice, Bai Qi turned and saw Zhang Li Xue’s mother walking in their direction. She walked over to Qi Ming Wei’s wife, Yang Ran. The two of them were hugging each other tightly as Yang Ran spoke a few consolation words.

“The others arrived an hour ago,” Li Qin Yao spoke as she pulled away from her friend’s embrace. She turned to Qi Zheng and Feng An Yu and nodded. “There will be a briefing on the latest situation soon.”

“Where’s Yu Han?” Qi Zheng asked.

“He should be with the others.” Li Qin Yao pointed at the tent at the side. “Go ahead.”

Bai Qi watched as Qi Zheng and the others left. He stepped forward and looked at Li Qin Yao’s haggard face. “Aunty.”

Li Qin Yao’s eyes started to get teary again when she saw Bai Qi. Her lips parted, but no words seemed to come out. She still remembered that her husband had mentioned his meeting with Bai Qi. Li Qin Yao knew that Bai Qi adored her daughter and was planning to propose.

Seeing him made her heart ache. She could tell that Bai Qi too was in pain after hearing the news.

Bai Qi walked closer and hugged the elder woman. “Aunty, we will find her. Li Xue will be alright.”

Li Qin Yao blinked and the tears streamed down her face. “Bai Qi, thank you for coming over.”

Bai Qi helped to support Li Qin Yao and the two of them walked over to the tents together.

When he arrived, Bai Qi was introduced to several of Zhang Li Xue’s uncles and aunties who came to help. Everyone came from all parts of the country to look for the girl.

Qi Ming Wei stood at the center and gave a briefing on the situation.

By this time, they had managed to find out the location where the architect and the others were trapped. However, Zhang Li Xue was not with them.

Their emotions fluctuated.

A few seconds ago, they were relieved to hear that the group was found. However, their hope was crushed again upon hearing that Zhang Li Xue was not with them.

Li Qin Yao hugged her husband tightly and buried her face in his chest.

They all understood that the longer it take to find Li Xue, the more dangerous the situation would be for her. They still did not know whether Zhang Li Xue was injured or not.

According to the rescue team, rescuing the group of men would be quite tricky. They will have to be careful and avoid injuring others.

Bai Qi stood at the side while listening to the briefing carefully. Once it ended, Bai Qi walked over to Qi Ming Wei and volunteered to help with the rescue mission.

Qi Ming Wei warned him that he could not be reckless and had to listen to the rescue team’s instructions. Otherwise, it was better for him to stand at the side and wait.

Bai Qi quickly agreed. No matter what, he could not stand at the side and watch. He wanted to look for Li Xue. Or else, he could not be at ease.

Just as they were about to make their move, a pair of a husband and wife walked over to the tent.

Zhang Yu Han looked at the friend in front of him and nodded. “Long Fei, you are here as well.”

“I heard from Lu Xun and come over as soon as I can,” Long Fei said. He glanced at the team who were preparing to go and continue the rescue mission and spoke, “Have they found your daughter yet?”

Zhang Yu Han swallowed. Then, he shook his head. “They found the others. However, Li Xue was not with them.” He glanced at the rescue team and spoke, “They are going to rescue the others and look for Li Xue.”

Zhang Yu Han understood that the other’s life was as important as his daughters, but his heart was still aching.

If Qi Ming Wei did not remind him that he could not act recklessly and hurt his daughter in the process, Zhang Yu Han would surely go over and looked for his daughter with his bare hands.

Long Fei glanced at his wife before patting Zhang Yu Han on the shoulder. “Rest assured. They will find your daughter. I will go and help them to look for her as well.”

Zhang Yu Han nodded. “Thank you.”
