The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Chapter 271: Saving Dongfang Yu_1

All the other houses remained standing, only the one Dongfang Yu was in had collapsed.

He was buried under the wreckage, nowhere to be found, and no sound came from him…

“Dongfang Yu…” Hai Xiaotang scrambled through the rubble, crying as she searched for him.

The rescue team was there, too, conducting urgent retrieval operations!

Hai Xiaotang ignored their dissuasions and obstinately continued looking for him. Rainstorm continued to pour, soaking her completely. Her hands were abraded, oozing fresh blood…

Yet she felt no cold, felt no pain.

She was desperately using her hands to keep on digging, fretting that even a second of delay would mean not being able to save Dongfang Yu.

But after searching for a long time, there was still no sign of him!

“Dongfang Yu—” Hai Xiaotang yelled painfully, kneeling on the ground, breaking into loud sobs.

She felt an unbearable pain in her heart, akin to being stabbed by a knife!

She didn’t know, if Dongfang Yu died, what would she do.

Only now did she realize that, whether in her past or current life, she cared deeply for him, she couldn’t forget him.

But why, when they finally got to be together, did this have to happen?

Why would something like this occur out of the blue?

Hai Xiaotang felt disoriented, her whole body was freezing stiff.

Just as her vision started fading, suddenly, she heard shouts of joy!

“He is found, over here!”

Hai Xiaotang instantly came back to her senses, staring with bewilderment…

Several firefighters lifted a large slab. A man’s hand was uncovered.

It was… Dongfang Yu’s…

Hai Xiaotang got to her feet, stumbling towards it, “Dongfang Yu!”

Sure enough, it was him. He lay on the ground unconscious, his life, uncertain.

The doctor quickly arrived to check on him, triumphantly declaring, “He is alive, hurry and get him to the hospital!

Upon hearing these words, a smile emerged on Hai Xiaotang’s face, but then she fainted!

Hai Xiaotang had a nightmare.

In her dream, Dongfang Yu died. Her crying was heart-wrenching, her sorrow as if she was dying.

Tears kept streaming down from the corners of her eyes. Hai Xiaotang awoke from the nightmare with a start!

“Dongfang Yu—” She cried out.

“Xiaotang, you’re awake!” Hai Zhiyuan, who had been keeping vigil by her bedside, was overjoyed, “Child, you finally woke up!”

Hai Xiaotang gave him a blank look, then instantly remembered what had happened before she lost consciousness.

“Grandfather, where is Dongfang Yu? Where is Dongfang Yu?” she asked urgently, but her voice came out hoarse, and her throat was in immense pain.

The old man comforted her, “Don’t worry, for now he’s okay, he’s just not awake yet. Rest assured, he’ll be alright.”

Hearing him say this, Hai Xiaotang broke into a relieved smile, her tears welling up again.

Hai Zhiyuan handed her a tissue to wipe her tears, and said sympathetically, “Xiaotang, you two gave me quite a scare. Although Ayu had an accident, I’in grateful that you’re okay…”

“Grandfather, I want to see him.” Hai Xiaotang, propping up her weak body, said with great sorrow.

Hai Zhiyuan nodded, “We’ll let the doctor check on you first, then we’ll go.”

The doctor soon came to examine her.

Hai Xiaotang had been out in the storm for a long time; her body had nearly frozen.

After losing consciousness, she had a sustained fever and was in critical condition.

However, now her fever was gone, but she still needed to rest for a while to fully recover.

After taking her medication, Hai Xiaotang was eager to see Dongfang Yu.

Dongfang Yu was still in the ICU, not entirely out of danger.
