Reborn amidst natural disaster, my childhood sweetheart and dad help me stock up and win effortlessl

However, the joyful feeling only lasted for a moment.

Jiang Li still felt lingering fear when she thought about the sudden earthquake that happened tonight.

Before the rebirth, the earthquakes that occurred after the acid rain happened during the day.

It happened at night, so many people probably didn't have time to escape.

"Brother Mo, you said acid rain and earthquakes are happening earlier than usual. Will things change in the future?"

Jiang Li lowered her head in frustration, which meant that what she knew before might not be accurate anymore.

Her advantage of being reborn is now in jeopardy.

"Don't overthink it. Acid rain and earthquakes have occurred earlier than expected. But it also confirms the existence of natural disasters."

Ye Jingmo coaxed Jiang Li softly, gently wiping her face, which was covered in ash, with his right hand.

As Jiang Li felt the calluses on her cheek from her fingers, the gloom in her heart slowly faded away.

"Drip."

A communication message came through on my wristwatch.

Jiang Li answered Qin Yue's call, and a hoarse voice came from the other end:

"Sister Jiang Li, are you injured? Do you need our help?"

Jiang Li noticed that Qin Yue's voice sounded strange.

"We're fine. Are you injured? How serious is it?"

"I twisted my ankle while I was escaping, and now it's swollen like a pig's trotter. I probably can't walk far, but otherwise I'm fine."

"hiss!"

Qin Yue on the phone seemed to have accidentally moved her injured foot, and involuntarily gasped.

"Apply some medicated oil to your foot; it will help it recover faster."

In the current situation, going out might be even more dangerous, as aftershocks could occur at any time.

Mo and I decided to rest here in the front yard for a while. The foundation of the villa area is very solid, so there's no need to worry about it collapsing.

Let's wait until dawn to make other plans.

Jiang Li talked about her and Ye Jingmo's plans.

"My brother thinks so too; if we go out, we'll need to find a place to live."

My legs aren't what they used to be, so I can't walk very far. We don't have any other means of transportation, so it's more convenient to stay in the front yard and watch over our things.

"We'll contact you anytime if there are any problems."

Jiang Li ended the call with Qin Yue and told Ye Jingmo about the Qin family's situation.

Ye Jingmo remained expressionless; he didn't care about the Qin family's situation.

He simply listened quietly to what Jiang Li wanted to say.

"So, Brother Mo, what should we do now?"

Jiang Li, surrounded by complete darkness, subconsciously wanted to follow Ye Jingmo's lead.

"Let's check the area around the villa for any damage first. After that, we'll stay in the open space in the front yard to avoid any aftershocks."

Ye Jingmo's tone was calm, yet it was like a warm current in winter, giving Jiang Li strength.

Shining their flashlights on the road ahead, Ye Jingmo and Jiang Li began inspecting the villa.

Thanks to the generous use of materials in the villa and its subsequent reinforcement, the main structure of the villa was not damaged in this severe earthquake.

However, when Ye Jingmo and Jiang Li reached the backyard fence, they discovered that a section of the electric fence had come loose.

Ye Jingmo planned to reinforce the power grid again during the day.

The two walked back to the open space in the front yard.

Jiang Li took out the camping tents she had previously stockpiled from her spatial storage.

She shone a light on Ye Jingmo so he could set up the tent.

Ye Jingmo didn't even look at the installation instructions before skillfully starting the setup.

Jiang Li watched as he first laid the inner tent on the ground, then unfolded the folded tent poles and threaded them into the tent pole covers.

In no time at all, the tent's basic shape was completed.

Ye Jingmo set up the outer tent, and a perfectly sturdy tent appeared before Jiang Li's eyes.

Jiang Li went into the tent, took out a power-storing light bulb, and hung it on the top.

The dim light illuminated the tent.

"Bring out two blankets."

Ye Jingmo gave Jiang Li instructions.

Jiang Li took out two quilts from her spatial storage, assuming that Ye Jingmo and she would each have one quilt.

However, Ye Jingmo picked up a quilt and spread it on the ground.

"Your period isn't over yet, and the ground is too cold and damp. Laying down a blanket will help keep out the moisture."

"Go lie down and go to sleep. You're already tired and sleepy today."

Ye Jingmo patted the spot next to him, urging Jiang Li to lie down.

Jiang Li lay down at the very back of the tent, and a hand reached across her body to pull another blanket over her gently.

Jiang Li pulled the blanket up with her hand, covering half of her small face, revealing only her dark eyes that looked like they were glistening with moisture.

It made her appear soft and delicate.

"Brother Mo, aren't you going to sleep?"

Jiang Li, who was already exhausted and sleepy today, was now lying in a safe place after the terrifying earthquake, her mind completely scattered.

My head is foggy, like a tangled mess.

With a hint of weariness in her voice, Jiang Li forced herself to open her eyes and gaze at Ye Jingmo.

"You go to sleep first, I'll go to sleep later."

Ye Jingmo gently comforted Jiang Li.

Feeling Ye Jingmo's presence beside her, Jiang Li, finding solace in his presence, slowly closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

Ye Jingmo leaned against Jiang Li, with a small knife close to his chest, and closed his eyes to rest.

Pudding lay at Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo's feet, its ears twitching occasionally as it watched the commotion outside.

Two aftershocks occurred around midnight.

Jiang Li frowned slightly, her eyelids struggling as if she wanted to open them.

Ye Jingmo placed his hand on Jiang Li's eyes and gently coaxed her in her ear:

"Go to sleep, it's alright."

Upon hearing Ye Jingmo's voice, Jiang Li's eyelashes brushed against his palm, she murmured a few words, and then fell into a deep sleep.

A faint light appeared in the sky, and the morning sun shone on the earth, dispelling the darkness.

Ye Jingmo stepped out of the tent; nothing around him had changed.

Last night's earthquake seems like a dream.

Jiang Li rolled around on the bed twice, noticing that the mattress beneath her wasn't as soft and comfortable as usual, and she opened her eyes in a daze.

Pudding noticed that Jiang Li was awake and moved closer to her, humming softly twice.

Jiang Li hugged Pudding and stroked its fur.

She scanned the inside of the tent but did not find Ye Jingmo.

"Let's go out."

Jiang Li patted Pudding's head, making it get off her.

Pudding obediently stood up and waited for Jiang Li to walk out of the tent together.

She lifted the tent flap and immediately saw Ye Jingmo standing in front of it.

"Brother Mo."

Ye Jingmo turned to look at Jiang Li, a smile appearing on his usually cold face.

"Why didn't you sleep more?"

He walked to Jiang Li's side and used his body to block the direction of the wind.

Jiang Li shook her head.

"I can't sleep, Brother Mo, can we go home now?"

I'm worried about the crops and guinea pigs on the third floor.

Ye Jingmo said, "Okay, there were two aftershocks last night, but no more."

The earthquake should be over by now.

Hearing Ye Jingmo's affirmation, Jiang Li's lips curved into a smile, filled with joy.

Jiang Li grabbed Ye Jingmo's hand and rushed back to the villa without waiting.
