sensible

Mao Qingdou went to her hometown alone with the urn, and Sister Diu's only last wish was to go back to her hometown to have a look.

Lu Qiubai wanted to follow, but Shi Qing and He Li persuaded him to come down.

Lu Qiubai is no longer the former Mr. Lu who was in charge of administrative affairs, and he can't delay the affairs of the company for a moment. Besides, he doesn't have any say in such matters.The three secretly bought air tickets and planned to visit together on the day of the funeral.

Lu Qiubai called Mao Qingdou for several days in a row, knowing that Mao Qingdou was busy with the funeral, after chatting for a few words, he stopped bothering and hung up the phone.

"Qiubai." After listening to their conversation, Lao Hu gave a look from the driver's seat, and asked cautiously, "Did Mr. Mao take over the house?"

Lu Qiubai tugged on his tie, and replied, "Not yet. Let's pick it up when he comes back."

Old Hu said: "Then why don't we accompany him to pick it up? I know a Feng Shui master. He has a good view. If there is something bad for Mr. Mao in the house, we can find a way to resolve it."

Lu Qiubai gave a rare smile, and replied: "Old Hu, we have worked together for so long, and this is the first time I know that you are still such a superstitious person."

"It's okay not to be superstitious." Seeing Lu Qiubai smile, Lao Hu immediately relaxed his tone, and replied: "I think Mr. Mao's luck is too bad, maybe it's really because there are some unclean things around him. Woolen cloth."

Lu Qiubai said: "Old Hu, they all say that the older you get, the more superstitious you are. I didn't believe it before, but now that you're like this, it seems to make sense."

"Oh, no, Qiubai, I have a basis for saying this. Mr. Mao may really have unclean things around him. I remember the last time I brought him over to look at the house, he walked around the construction site and came back and said I saw something that was very familiar."

Lu Qiubai was taken aback for a moment, and said, "What is it?"

Lao Hu replied: "I don't know. Anyway, it must be something unclean. Later I asked specifically, the workers in that construction site often threw things for no reason, and there was a fire last time. The workers also ran away. They haven’t been found yet.”

Lu Qiubai's face froze: "That worker...does he have any information?"

Old Hu said: "Yes. This happened not long ago, just two days ago." After Lao Hu handed over a document, Lu Qiubai took it, saw the name on it, frowned and said, " Hu, pull over and stop."

Lao Hu parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car and took a cigarette to smoke.Lu Qiubai opened the information page by page and turned back, her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

All of a sudden, the world was spinning, and there was a rumbling sound from under the feet, and the whole car shook violently.

Lu Qiubai hurriedly grabbed the handlebar of the car, but the car was still shaking, as if it wanted to shake Lu Qiubai out of the car.In a trance, Lu Qiubai looked out the window and saw the pedestrians on the road running in a panic, the street lights kept flashing, and Lao Hu staggered and ran towards him calling his name while shaking.Lu Qiubai couldn't understand why, at this moment of extreme danger, when he didn't know whether he was going to die or live in the next moment, Mao Qingdou was the only one left in his mind.

It seemed that it took a century for the shaking to stop slowly, Lu Qiubai grabbed the phone and quickly dialed Maoqingdou's phone number, only the prompts "no answer" and "user is busy" came from the phone.After a long time, when I called again, there was only a busy tone.

The voice of the news broadcast came from the radio: "Interlude an urgent news. An earthquake just occurred in our country. It is estimated that it reached magnitude 8. The epicenter is in the southwestern part of our country..."

Lu Qiubai only felt as if a knife had been stabbed out in his heart, and there were waves of dull pain, but what was more unbearable than this pain was the heart-piercing panic.

The phone rang, and Lu Qiubai quickly picked it up, only to hear He Li's voice: "Qiu, Mr. Qiu, are you okay?"

Lu Qiubai regained his composure and said, "I'm fine, how about you? How about Shi Qing?"

He Li said: "Everything is fine, everything is fine. It's just that Mao Qingdou's phone can't be reached."

Lu Qiubai chatted for a few words and hung up the phone. Amidst the noise, he leaned back on the chair and couldn't help thinking, Maoqingdou, where are you now?

When Mao Qingdou woke up, he found that he was not in his own bed. There were people coming and going. Doctors and nurses quickly rushed from one bed to the next after the diagnosis. Ended up in a funeral ceremony.

His arm felt slightly cool. He raised his hand and found that he had a drip on his arm, and the medicine flowed down the thin tube into his blood drop by drop.Mao Qingdou called the passing nurse to stop.

The nurse hurried over and asked, "How is it? Do you still have a headache?"

"Nurse, I..." Mao Qingdou felt a fishy smell welling up in her throat, and tried her best not to cough it up.

"Don't worry, it's all right. It's just that you were hit by a rock. You may have a stress reaction. Don't worry. Are there any relatives at home? Where are they all? Register."

Mao Qingdou took the pen and paper from the nurse in a trance, paused for a moment and said, "Can I write my friend's name?"

"Friend? Are you also in our county?"

"Oh, well, no no no...my friend isn't with us."

"That's not necessary, just report to your friend that you are safe. What we need is for the family to provide clues to the missing relatives after the earthquake, so that the rescue team can save people."

"Earth... quake?" Mao Qingdou was stunned.

Mao Qingdou looked around, and found that the room was full of people, and the wounded on stretchers passed by the corridor from time to time in the distance.

A figure skipped by, walking in a hurry, as if looking for someone.The slender figure stopped at the door of the ward opposite Mao Qingdou, looking in anxiously.An old lady came out with a kettle, and the man grabbed her arm and kept asking.

Mao Qingdou looked at this figure as if it had been a lifetime ago.

He didn't know where he came from with a burst of strength, propped himself up from the bed, and yelled out the door: "Lu Qiubai!"

The slender figure immediately stood there in a daze, loosened his hands slightly, and turned his head slowly.There are mixed feelings in the eyes.

Mao Qingdou couldn't tell what the expression on Lu Qiubai's face meant, only that his eyes seemed unprecedentedly sad, breaking any impression he had of him in the past.The calm and self-reliant Lu Qiubai was gone, and there was only one worried, flustered, or... fearful Lu Qiubai.

It seemed as if a century had passed before Lu Qiubai took one step, and then, two steps, three steps, almost running towards Mao Qingdou.

Mao Qingdou looked at Lu Qiubai standing in front of the bed for a long while, and then quietly said, "Lu Qiubai, don't worry, I'm fine."

Lu Qiubai slowly moved the quilt away, her eyes swept from the feet to the neck one by one, her Adam's apple moved slightly, she seemed to be a little relieved, but she was still afraid of something.

"Lu Qiubai, look at me." After Maoqingdou finished speaking, she raised her head and gave Lu Qiubai a big smile, "There is a Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten to death in the world, but I am Maoqingdou who can't be beaten to death. You Right?"

Lu Qiu's eyes were red, but he didn't say a word.

After a long time, he suddenly stood up and handed Mao Qingdou a glass of water.After a long time, he asked, "How long have you been lying down?"

"It didn't take long. I just woke up. It seems that the earthquake was really strong. Even you came to see me."

"Yeah." Lu Qiubai said, "This earthquake...has never happened in a hundred years."

"Haha, is that so?" Mao Qingdou said, "I met you. Lu Qiubai, I really need to buy some lottery tickets this time. Survive a catastrophe without dying. Haha."

Suddenly there was a cry of a baby, and a group of medical staff in white coats rushed to the corridor with a bloody child in their arms. There was a burst of crying and shouting, and a young nurse cried anxiously: "Are there any beds? Hurry up and make room for a bed, this kid is about to pass out."

No one should.

Mao Qingdou shouted at the medical staff without hesitation: "Here! I have a bed here!"

Mao Qingdou vacated her bed, and walked for a long time with Lu Qiubai behind her.

This is the largest hospital in the county. After the disaster, many wounded were brought in quickly.The elderly, children, and women all need to be taken care of.Mao Qingdou felt that he was not qualified to compete with these people for medical resources, so he and Lu Qiubai sat down in a clean place in the open space surrounded by the ward, and the two of them looked at the entrance of the emergency department one after another. Poe's wounded were carried in, in silence.

In the evening, someone took a tent and set it up in the open space. Mao Qingdou just realized it a little bit, but saw Lu Qiubai at the side also came at some point and set up a tent with many quilts inside.

In this way, the two got into one of the countless tents in this open space before nightfall.

Mao Qingdou lay on his back in the tent, and suddenly said, "Xiaobai, how did you get here?"

Lu Qiubai was lying beside Mao Qingdou, also staring blankly at the sky, and replied, "I came here when I saw the news."

Came here when I saw the news.

The occurrence of this disaster was beyond anyone's expectation. In the chaos, and even the mobile phone signal could not be received, how could he be able to "see the news, come here"?Mao Qingdou didn't dare to think about it, and couldn't think about it, just seeing his haggard face made him feel sad.

After all, Lu Qiubai is such a confident and gentle person. In all these years, Mao Qingdou has never seen him being pushed by anything.Now, Lu Qiubai is very anxious.It was completely undisguised, and it was displayed bloody in front of Mao Qingdou.

Maoqingdou suddenly laughed for no reason.

"Xiaobai, I still remember that I said before that I will take you to my hometown and cook the most delicious fish for you."

"But now... even I am like this."

Lu Qiubai suddenly turned around, looked at Mao Qingdou and smiled, and gently stroked Mao Qingdou's hair.

"Xiaobai." Mao Qingdou said, "Xiaobai, you have to remember, I owe you a fish in this life."
