Night.
Nan Shan District First Hospital.
The bleak autumn wind slowly swept across this land that was riddled with holes. The sound of the wind drifted through the streets that were scattered with ruins, as if it was crying.
Orthopedics Department.
In a single ward.
Everyone had left, and Dong Xuebing was the only one left. He sat up on the bed in his patient's gown and stood in front of the window, looking at the mess outside. He looked at the busy rescue workers and felt anxious. He wished he could take off his bandages and go back to Guangming Street Office to help with the rescue work. Dong Xuebing is not someone who can sit still. Furthermore, the City was in a crisis, and Dong Xuebing was worried about his office's situation.
Suddenly, the ward's door opened.
"Chief Dong? Why are you not resting? "A young nurse entered the ward.
"I can't sleep." Dong Xuebing did not turn around and looked outside.
"You can't." The young nurse stared at Dong Xuebing. "The doctor said you must rest well. Hurry and lie down, or the Director will scold me."
Dong Xuebing replied. "He won't dare to scold you. If he dares to scold you, you can come and look for me."
"Dong! Master! Ren! "The young nurse was very professional." Hurry and lie down! Before Mayor Geng left, he had asked me to keep an eye on you. "
Keep an eye on me?
Am I a prisoner now?!
Dong Xuebing was frustrated and walked back to the nurse. "Alright, alright. Help me up."
"That's right." The nurse giggled and helped Dong Xuebing to the bed.
"Oh." Dong Xuebing felt an itch in his chest and whispered to the nurse. "Do you have cigarettes? Give me one. "
The nurse stared at Dong Xuebing. "You are in this state, and you still want to smoke?"
Dong Xuebing's craving was triggered. "Hurry up. Please, just one cigarette. Find me one, stealthily. "
The nurse shook her head. "No. If people know about this, they will scold me."
"Who will know if you don't tell anyone?" Dong Xuebing replied. "Don't worry. Don't you know what kind of person I am? I will not betray you. "
"No … no."
"You are so boring."
"The hospital doesn't allow smoking. I can't go against the rules."
Dong Xuebing tried to persuade Geng Yuehua, but she did not say anything. He knew Geng Yuehua must have told the hospital something before she left. Dong Xuebing was speechless. "Nurse, can you get me a radio? I can't even travel to the outside world. Can you find someone to check on Yan Tai County and the surrounding areas? "Dong Xuebing is worried about Xie Huilan after what happened to Geng Yuehua.
The young nurse said, "We can get through now."
"What? Is it working? "
"Yeah, it'll be fine in the afternoon. I think the equipment has been fixed or they've gotten some kind of satellite signal or something. Anyway, we can make calls, but there are too many people calling, and the line is very busy, so we might not be able to connect."
"Stop talking. Give me my phone!"
"Uh, where is your phone?"
"My phone is where my clothes are. How would I know where you took it off?"
"Wait a moment, I'll find it for you."
After a while, the young nurse ran back to the ward with Dong Xuebing's iPhone 4 in her hand. "I found it. Here you are."
Dong Xuebing's hands are not in the position to move. "Go through the phone book and find a number with 'Xie Huilan' on it."
The young nurse nodded and dialed the number. "… it's not working. Wait a minute. Let me try again … Ah … it's working." The young nurse immediately passes the phone to Dong Xuebing's ear.
Ring … ring … ring … ring …
After a while, Xie Huilan's voice came through. "Xiao Bing?"
Dong Xuebing asked anxiously. "Sister Xie, are you alright? Are you injured? Where are you? "
"I'm fine. Wait a minute …" The phone is very noisy, and Dong Xuebing could hear Xie Huilan shouting at someone. "Move this away! Ask the rescue team to hurry up! " She paused for a while, and the signal is not good. Before Xie Huilan could say anything, the line was cut off.
Dong Xuebing asked the young nurse to call a few more times, but the line did not go through.
But since Xie Huilan is fine, Dong Xuebing is relieved. He knows she must be very busy on the other side and did not call again.
After that, Dong Xuebing called his mother.
Dong Xuebing called Luan Xiaoping four to five times before Luan Xiaoping answered. "Son! Where are you?! You had scared me to death! Why can't I get through to you? "
"The signal tower had collapsed. It's fine, Mum. I am fine."
"Glad to hear you are fine. You had scared me to death."
"Tell Sister Yu and the rest not to worry. Oh, how is my Uncle Yang?"
"He is also fine. He had just called me to let me know he is fine."
"What about Beijing?"
"There were a few tremors, but it's not serious."
After making a few phone calls, Dong Xuebing is relieved. As long as his family is alive, there is nothing he cannot overcome.
But when Dong Xuebing was about to ask the young nurse to take the phone away, his phone rang.
Dong Xuebing immediately replied. "Answer it. Thank you."
The young nurse answered and passed the phone to Dong Xuebing.
Qu Yunxuan's mother asked anxiously. "Xiao Bing, is there an earthquake in your area?"
It's Qu Yunxuan's mother?
Dong Xuebing quickly replied. "Mum, it's an earthquake."
"Are you alright?"
"I am fine, and I am commanding the rescue team."
Qu Yunxuan's mother was relieved. "It's good that you are fine. Hurry back to Beijing."
Dong Xuebing was stunned. "I cannot go back now as many things are waiting for me here. Mum, what's wrong? Did something happen at home? "Why did Dong Xuebing suddenly ask him to go back?
But what Qu Yunxuan's mother said shocked Dong Xuebing.
Qu Yunxuan's mother replied. "Something happened! Yunxuan is going to give birth! We are all at the hospital now! "
Dong Xuebing asked. "Isn't her due date October 1st?"
"There was an earthquake, and Yunxuan is panicking. That's why she is giving birth earlier."
Qu Yunxuan's father suddenly shouted. "Can't you explain it clearly? Give me the phone!" One second later, Qu Yunxuan's father said. "Xiao Bing, you don't need to come over. We are here. I know what is happening in your area, and it is time for the Party members and leaders to lead the way. You must not leave now and must focus on your rescue team! I am here at home! Do you hear me? "
"Thank you, Dad!"
"Don't worry. Yunxuan is fine, and I will call you after the baby is born. Take care of yourself. Yunxuan is worried about you and had asked about your condition before entering the operating room."
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing's emotions are complicated, but he is still excited!
Aunt Xuan is going to give birth!
I am going to be a father!
