Chapter 562: Kiss of Life and Death (Part 7)
Qin Xin saw that the center of this tremor was right where Song Anjing’s group was.At this moment, Song Anjing was cleaning and disinfecting a piece of glass embedded in a female teacher’s shoulder and bandaging it up.
The female teacher looked at Song Anjing, a student who always came last in exams and whom she had scolded countless times as a "bad student," yet now, in this moment of crisis, she had stepped forward to rescue her. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she deeply regretted having been so harsh and impatient with this student in the past.
She felt a tremor, but she thought it was her remorse that made her shiver.
Song Anjing, however, was fully focused on bandaging, completely unaware that danger was imminent.
In a flash of lightning.
Qin Xin pushed Ao Xinghao aside and charged toward Song Anjing.
Beside Song Anjing was a small medical cart with wheels. Qin Xin threw her onto the cart in an instant and stuffed the female teacher onto it as well.
The female teacher’s shoulder was not yet fully bandaged and accidentally got knocked by the handle of the cart, causing sharp pain, but she didn’t make a sound because she knew Qin Xin was saving their lives. She had already seen cracks appear in the ground where they had been, and the earth started shaking again.
There’s no time left.
Without thinking, Qin Xin kicked the medical cart away.
The cart rolled downhill towards Ao Xinghao, just in time to block his path.
"Xin, come back, you can’t—"
"Xinxin, don’t!"
"Sister Xin!!!"
The exclamations of the companions were drowned out by a deafening boom.
The Pharmacy College building collapsed again.
Qin Xin’s figure disappeared into the darkness.
The crowd was silent as if dead for a few seconds.
Ao Xinghao’s eyes were blood-red, and he bit his lip until it bled.
Song Anjing broke into a wail: "It’s all my fault, I’m so stupid, wuuu, Sister Xin got buried while saving me, wuuu..."
Hu Yi, with reddened eyes, rushed forward, furiously digging with his hands: "I will dig out Sister Xin, even if I ruin my hands, I will dig her out!"
Huo Zhen silently joined in, digging with more force and ferocity than anyone else.
Behind them.
The long-ignored captain of the medical team finally found an opportunity to sneer:
"What did I say earlier? She’s just a student, overestimating herself trying to perform surgery, and now, isn’t this retribution? This is heaven’s punishment..."
Before he could finish his words.
"Smack—"
A harsh and crisp slap landed on his face.
Without a word, Ao Xinghao slapped him, spat at him, and turned to jump into the pit made by the collapse, starting to dig frantically with his bare hands.
The captain covered his face, incredulous: "You, you dare hit me, a mere kid? I’m the director with a senior title of the hospital..."
Not even finished speaking.
"Smack—"
Another harsh and crisp slap landed on his face.
"Pah, you’re nothing!" A nurse, with reddened eyes, followed Ao Xinghao and slapped the captain, spat on him, turned, and jumped into the pit to help dig.
"Smack—"
"Smack—"
"Smack—"
The entire rescue team and medical staff all with choked voices repeated the action, following into the collapsed area to dig.
No one gave orders; everyone acted voluntarily.
Though everyone knew it was useless, the girl who had been buried had selflessly saved hundreds or even thousands of people just moments ago, and now that she was in trouble, no one wanted to stand by. Everyone wanted to do their best.
As for the one who mocked?
Why leave him alive for the Chinese New Year?
Ao Xinghao, while digging, kept muttering to himself: "Xin won’t die, she won’t die. Last time, in the four-car pile-up, she was fine, dodged a calamity. This time... she’ll be fine too..."
