Huo Yanqing interrupted Zhang Guosen's flattery. "The weather bureau has already predicted that there will be a magnitude 3 to 5 earthquake today. Evacuate everyone at the construction site immediately."
"Huh? R-there's really an earthquake? "
"Are you doubting my words?" Huo Yanqing raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I wouldn't dare. I'm just too shocked. Okay, I'll listen to you, President Huo. I'll arrange for the workers to evacuate the construction site now."
When Zhang Guosen heard Huo Yanqing hang up, he lowered the phone from his ear. His face was pale. He didn't expect Shuxin to be telling the truth. There was something wrong with the pillars. If there was really an earthquake, then …
Zhang Guosen couldn't help but look at the finished construction of the movie theater. If such a tall building collapsed …
The consequences would be unimaginable!
Just as Zhang Guosen was recovering from the shock of Huo Yanqing's news, he suddenly felt the ground shake.
Was there an earthquake?
Zhang Guosen was so scared that his face turned ashen. His first reaction was to run for his life. As he ran, he shouted, "There's an earthquake. Everyone, run!"
The workers had also felt the tremors. When they heard Zhang Guosen's shout, their faces were full of panic. They hurriedly threw away the tools in their hands and ran toward the construction site entrance like a swarm of bees.
In an instant, the construction site was in chaos. Screams, footsteps, and the screams of workers tripping over their tools and falling down filled the air.
The people painting the outer wall on the metal frame were as anxious as grasshoppers on a hot pan. They really wanted to fly down and escape, but they had to do it one step at a time. They could clearly feel the tremors. When the metal frame shook, it made a buzzing sound. This sound was like a demonic sound from hell. It scared them so much that every bone in their body was trembling.
Some people were so scared that their limbs went limp. They only knew that they had to go down, but their limbs didn't listen to them. Their hands clutched the metal frame tightly and their feet stomped in the air in a panic.
A timid woman was so scared that her whole body was trembling. She climbed down the metal frame with difficulty, but her clothes were hooked somewhere. No matter how hard she pulled, she couldn't move them. She was so scared that she wailed, "Help … Help …"
On the other side, Shuxin was standing at the construction site entrance and analyzing the current situation with the security guard. Suddenly, she felt the tremors, followed by screams from inside the construction site.
Not long after, Zhang Guosen was the first to run out with a pale face.
The security guard turned around and saw the workers running over like crazy. He shouted, "Earthquake, earthquake …"
The security guards and the guards reacted and ran away.
Shuxin looked at the watch on her wrist. It was 8: 45. There were still more than ten minutes before the building collapsed.
Now that no one was stopping her, Shuxin was worried about the workers inside, so she wanted to go in and take a look. However, she had only taken a few steps when her arm was grabbed by someone.
"Miss Shu, you can't go in. It's dangerous inside."
Shuxin turned her head and saw that it was Yang Ji. She was surprised, but she didn't have time to ask why he was here. She just said, "Let me go. The building is about to collapse. I have to go in and see if there are any workers who haven't come out."
"It's about to collapse, so you can't go in. If something happens to you, I won't be able to answer to The Fifth Lord."
Shuxin was stunned. She couldn't explain it to Fifth Uncle? Did Fifth Uncle ask him to protect her?
While Shuxin was in a daze, the workers inside had rushed to the door. Dozens of people suddenly rushed to the door, which was not very wide, so it was naturally very crowded.
Someone bumped into Shuxin. Shui Xin staggered back a few steps. Thinking that the building would collapse in ten minutes, she had to go in and take a look. Shui Xin didn't want to see the tragedy of her previous life again. Moreover, the woman in her memory hadn't escaped yet.
