Chapter 649 - Zheng Ren, You Bastard!
Chapter 649: Zheng Ren, You Bastard!
14 hours ago.
Xie Yiren was in the supermarket, buying daily necessities for Zheng Ren. She was pushing the cart leisurely.
Chang Yue was busy and did not have time to accompany her so she was a little bored.
Every time she thought of Zheng Ren, the corner of her mouth would carry a sweet and shy smile.
The ground shook slightly, and the things on the shelves scattered all over the floor. Xie Yiren sent a few WeChat messages to Zheng Ren to ask if he felt anything on the other side. After that, she helped the salesperson clean up.
A few minutes later, a WeChat notification sounded.
[I’m going down from the operating theater. Where are you?]
[I’m buying something for you in the supermarket. What’s wrong?]
[There’s a rehearsal mission. I’m going out for a while. I’ll be back soon. It’s fine. Don’t worry.]
Xie Yiren’s eyebrows moved slightly. She squatted on the ground and stared at her phone in a daze.
“Little sister, be careful. Don’t get knocked down by others,” the salesperson reminded her as she looked at the panicking crowd.
“Oh.” Xie Yiren stood up. She was a little confused as if she had encountered a difficult problem.
Because the vibration only lasted for about ten seconds, the crowd gradually calmed down.
Soon, some people began to talk about the earthquake in Western Sichuan.
After a while, a WeChat notification sounded on her phone. Xie Yiren picked up her phone and saw that it was from Zheng Ren.
[It’s a drill so I’ll be away for a while. I’ll be back soon.]
[Is it really a drill? I think everyone is in a hurry. Is It related to the earthquake from earlier?]
[No, don’t worry. Wait for me to come back.]
Xie Yiren was stunned for a moment. She immediately realized that something had happened. Zheng Ren… That bastard, how dare he lie to her!
Xie Yiren, who had always been gentle, was angry.
She sent another WeChat message but Zheng Ren went silent. Xie Yiren became stubborn and called Zheng Ren’s cellphone.
His cellphone was turned off!
Xie Yiren realized that something had really happened.
It was not a drill, but…
She was a little flustered. She prayed silently in her heart, hoping that it was just a drill or a false alarm.
When she started the car, her hands were trembling. It did not work. Xie Yiren sat in the car and calmed down for a few minutes before she focused on starting the car. As if she was performing surgery, she focused on driving back to the Imperial Capital Hospital.
The supermarket was not far from the Imperial Capital Hospital. She arrived in more than ten minutes.
The hospital was still crowded as if everything she had just experienced was a delusion.
Xie Yiren parked the car and jogged around to look for Chang Yue.
“Sister Yue, Sister Yue, have they left?” Xie Yiren asked.
“Su Yun told me just now that there was a mission. Yiren, do you know what mission it is?” Chang Yue adjusted her glasses and looked confused.
Zheng Ren, you bastard!
Xie Yiren cursed in her heart.
She began to search in the hospital aimlessly, like a headless fly.
The hospital was also very chaotic. Many doctors rushed over from their homes. The frontline doctors were all transferred away at once. It was impossible for it not to be chaotic.
Xie Yiren said many times that he was a bastard, but in the end, her worry for Zheng Ren destroyed her anger. She sat on the steps with tears in her eyes and began to search for relevant information.
On the forum, the first thing people posted was that there was an earthquake…
After a few hours of accumulation, the strength of the earthquake had been posted online—from the initial magnitude of 7.8 to 8.0 on the Richter scale.
Every half an hour, there was also an aftershock broadcast.
Xie Yiren saw that just the aftershock above magnitude 6 had already happened twice…
Level 6 aftershocks…
Zheng Ren, you bastard! Xie Yiren scolded him fiercely in her heart but could not hold back her tears.
“Yiren, what happened to you?” Chang Yue appeared behind her at some point. Seeing that Xie Yiren was crying, she immediately asked her that question.
“They went to help with the earthquake,” Xie Yiren said while crying.
“Earthquake? How big is it?” Chang Yue still did not think much of it but after hearing Xie Yiren’s reply, she also fell silent.
“It’s fine.” After a long time, Chang Yue managed to squeeze out a smile and comforted Xie Yiren, “Disasters have been around for a thousand years, they will definitely be fine.”
“Su Yun will be fine, Zheng Ren will also…” Xie Yiren cried even harder.
Crying could not solve the problem. The two of them were not in the mood to eat. It was already past five o’clock and the sky was already dark. They discussed that in the face of a major disaster, they would probably need a lot of fresh frozen erythrocytes. They should go and donate blood. As for the hospital…
Professor Shen was also dragged away by a car. Chang Yue and a second-line doctor on duty said that if the hospital still wanted to send a medical team, they would definitely inform them.
They left their phone number and got into Xie Yiren’s car. The two of them drove aimlessly in the river of cars in the Imperial Capital.
They passed by many blood donation cars on the streets but without exception, there was a long line—one that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Many staff members of blood donation vehicles were trying to persuade everyone to leave. Each vehicle carried 300 blood bags. With so many people, there were simply not enough blood bags.
However, no one left.
Xie Yiren looked at the long line with some distress. Instead of standing there, she felt it was better to look for a place somewhere further.
She kept thinking of doing something. Otherwise, she would feel very uncomfortable. It was as if there was something pressing against her chest. She felt uncomfortable even when she was breathing.
“By the way, Sister Yue, let me take you to a place to try,” Xie Yiren said excitedly as she suddenly thought of a place.
Seeing that her attention was distracted, Chang Yue did not dare to provoke the young lady. If she really hugged the steering wheel and cried on the road, what would she do?
“Where are we going?” Chang Yue was also a little curious.
“It’s a school,” Xie Yiren said. “Usually, the school will have a special blood donation car. Let’s go and take a look.”
As she spoke, she stepped on the gas pedal and the car drove straight toward Haidian.
It was the evening rush hour, so it was impossible to go fast.
When they reached the entrance of Tsinghua University, it was already past six o’clock.
The peaceful campus seemed to have changed today. It was a mess inside, and many people were shouting something.
Xie Yiren and Chang Yue both felt like the situation was strange. They immediately parked the car outside the campus and pretended to be students as they walked into Tsinghua University’s campus.
On the campus playground, countless people crowded the area.
Someone took the lead and shouted a slogan. It was so rhythmic that it was like a tsunami, completely igniting the blood in their hearts.
“Classmate, what’s going on?” Chang Yue pulled a passing male student and asked.
“An earthquake requires a large amount of blood plasma. The blood donation vehicle only brought five hundred blood bags. How can they be so irresponsible?” The male student was wearing a hurdle vest. His body was drenched with sweat and he was holding a basketball under his arm. He brimmed with youthful vigor.
“Then what are they doing?” Chang Yue asked.
“They’re too irresponsible. If they ask the blood bank to send another vehicle over, they’ll need at least three thousand blood bags.”
“Three thousand? Are you kidding me?” Another male student was disdainful. He pointed at the crowd and said, “Count how many people are here. D*mn, if they knew the news earlier, they wouldn’t have been so honest. When they were here, they could have given four hundred or six hundred blood bags. Each person would take two or three blood bags. Wouldn’t that still be not enough?”
Chang Yue was stunned.
“The president of the student union is negotiating with them. If they don’t agree, they definitely won’t stop the blood donation vehicle. However, they will definitely go directly to the central blood bank. In the future, not even a blood donation vehicle will be able to go out. There will be plenty of blood,” he said as he patted his chest with a thud.
