"Not exactly, what I mean is that I..." Mr. Meng considers himself eloquent, but at that moment, under Mo Siyu's indifferent gaze, his heart ached as if sliced by a blunt knife. "If possible, I truly wish you weren't a grandson of the Meng Family." Mo Siyu spoke somberly, the old man on the sickbed, with his white, sparse hair, clearly should arouse sympathy, yet Mo Siyu couldn't muster any. Not to mention the issue with Meng Yanzhi, even the matter concerning Qu Feng, if it wasn't for Mr. Meng's significant disapproval of him, how could Qu Feng possibly move against him privately? Doesn't he understand what taking over the shipping company's contract means for their newly established company? Whether it was done by Qu Feng or orchestrated by Mr. Meng through Qu Feng, Mo Siyu would hold him accountable. After Mo Siyu spoke, he turned and left. Upon exiting, he encountered Meng Jin. Once Meng Jin met Mo Siyu's dark and deep eyes, he seemed to instantly understand what Mo Siyu was thinking. Meng Jin immediately made his stance clear, saying, "Si Yu, I have already strictly punished Qu Feng, and from now on, he will no longer be a part of the Meng Family." A person rushed over excitedly, saying, "We just received news that a major earthquake has occurred in Yishi." "What?" Meng Jin's pupils contracted, and he couldn't even bother to go in and comfort Mr. Meng; instead, he hurried back to the company. An earthquake signifies trouble; with hundreds of employees from the Meng Family in Yishi, as the top decision-maker of the Meng Family, he must make a trip to Yishi. Once Meng Jin returned to the company, he had already gathered several people, ready to set out for Yishi—to see if they could save anyone, and also hoping to send some food and medical supplies, for both the employees of the Meng Family and the innocent victims. Mo Siyu, his upright figure standing in front of Meng Jin, said, "I'll go too." The moment he heard about the disaster in Yishi, Mo Siyu thought of his former colleagues. He knew well what such a major earthquake implies, saying, "Mr. Qin's fleet is also in Yishi; I need to go and help." Meng Jin looked at him, feeling a surge of pride. This was truly his son, Meng Jin. Even though it wasn't particularly bustling, this district now tugged at the hearts of all Huaxia people due to the earthquake. "An Yu? Qin Anyu, where are you?" Chu Hong, carrying the roast duck he had just bought, was still on his way when the earthquake struck. His face turned pale, and he rushed towards the Star Bright shop. Star Bright was rented on the busiest street in Yishi, a three-story building. Along the way, there were collapses everywhere, many buildings twisted and askew, some completely collapsed, and the ground, as if unable to withstand the strain, cracked open with a huge fissure. Chu Hong used all his sprinting power to reach Star Bright, and upon seeing the building that might collapse at any moment, his heart couldn't help but lift. Star Bright, the originally exquisitely decorated sign, had fallen to the ground, the three-story building, though yet to collapse, had cracked walls, and many rooms had fallen. While others were running out, Chu Hong stubbornly ran into the building, which could collapse a second time. "Qin Anyu!" Chu Hong quickly searched for where Qin Anyu might be, his complexion turned somewhat pale. If he had known an earthquake would occur, how could he have specifically gone to buy roast duck, he should have stayed right by Qin Anyu. Star Bright's store rented two floors, initially thinking it would be good for storage, and it also provided a place to rest when coming here. Chu Hong couldn't find any of the staff, so he had to search the place on his own. Qin Anyu's foot was crushed by a cabinet, and she couldn't walk out at all. She faintly heard Chu Hong calling her and thought she was dreaming. "Qin Anyu!" Chu Hong's voice carried a roar and, upon listening carefully, also fear. The beautifully displayed clothes in the store were all scattered on the ground, the second floor was even more disastrous. "I'm here." Qin Anyu said through gritted teeth, half her body pinned down, lying on the ground in an extremely unflattering position, but now, she couldn't care less about her looks. Seeing Qin Anyu still alive, Chu Hong's heart that had been tightly clenched finally began to calm down. The next moment, Chu Hong saw the large bookcase pressing down on Qin Anyu. "Bear with it, I'll move that large bookcase off," before Chu Hong finished speaking, the building shook again, and chunks of plaster fell from the ceiling. "Chu Hong, you should leave." Qin Anyu, looking at the mess, felt a bit scared. If the whole building collapsed, would they still be alive? Chu Hong didn't even look at her or care whether it was shaking, he lifted his hand to move the large bookcase. "Anyu, carefully move your leg out." Chu Hong lifted the large bookcase to allow Qin Anyu to crawl out. "I can't, I don't have the strength." Qin Anyu tried moving with her hand, but her body wouldn't respond, and she couldn't crawl. Chu Hong, knowing that her body might be injured, saw a large desk next to them, thought for a moment, flipped the desk onto the ground, and then moved the bookcase onto the desk. The tall bookcase pressed against the desk, creating a triangular space. "Anyu," Chu Hong crouched down and saw the blood on Qin Anyu's back. He hadn't noticed it when she was being pressed down, but now lifting her up, Qin Anyu's back looked particularly frightening. "Wait for me," Chu Hong cautiously reached out to carry Qin Anyu out. But then, a violent shaking ensued; the building shook as if someone was violently rocking it, things clattered down. Qin Anyu only had time to shout, "Be careful." Chu Hong, seeing the situation, only had time to move Qin Anyu's whole body into the triangular space. Google seaʀᴄh NoveIFire.net The house, it all collapsed, falling rocks hit the wooden bookcase, making a loud noise. Not knowing how much time had passed, when Qin Anyu woke up again, it was pitch-black, she moved her hand, and every movement caused pain. "Chu Hong?" Qin Anyu reached out in the dark to feel for Chu Hong, touching his fluffy head. She felt uneasy and scared, her voice trembling: "Chu Hong, Chu Hong." After the earthquake, Qin Anyu was knocked unconscious, waking up to the sound of Chu Hong's voice and then fainting again, into complete darkness. Not knowing how much time had passed, Chu Hong's faint voice came: "I'm okay." "You not speaking for so long scared me to death." Hearing his voice felt like a huge weight had been lifted off her chest. "Don't worry, I still have to keep my life to marry you, I won't be harmed." Chu Hong firmly held her hand and said, "Anyu, if I'm not mistaken, the house must have completely collapsed."
