"Azé!"
In her line of sight, Qin Ze rushed towards the river, jumped, and disappeared into the turbulent river.
Wang Zijin's shout was almost synchronized with the splash of him falling into the water. She never thought that Qin Ze would be so impulsive. Saving people was not something he should do. The water was so strong that it was not comparable to a swimming pool.
She took a few steps forward and stepped into the river. She shouted a few more times until her voice was hoarse.
"Aiyo, that kid jumped in."
"How can you save people like this? It's over."
The people on the side discussed animatedly as they pointed at the river. Their faces were also filled with panic.
One minute.
Two minutes.
Three minutes.
This was the most torturous moment in Wang Zijin's heart.
Five minutes later, there was no movement on the turbulent river.
"Azé!"
"Azé!"
A huge fear exploded in her heart. She had never been so scared and helpless in her life. Wang Zijin asked the people behind her for help, but they looked at each other and thought that there was no way to save him. They did not have any tools or equipment. She did not want to lose her life again. They advised her that someone had already called for the rescue team.
It was too late. When the rescue team arrived, they did not know where they had gone.
The sky was gloomy, and it was drizzling. A chill rose from the bottom of her heart.
Wang Zijin suddenly rushed towards the river. The water was above her knees and waist, but she was pulled back.
"Don't go, don't go. You can't save him." The middle-aged man who pulled her said in broken Mandarin.
I don't know how to swim, but I must save him.
This was the only thought in Wang Zijin's mind. People were like this. The moment they saw the most precious thing disappear forever, even if they knew that they would lose themselves, they would not hesitate to rush over.
She was forcefully dragged back by the middle-aged man and a young man and fell on the shore. Wang Zijin looked back at the river and remembered a sentence she read in a book a long time ago. It was the autobiography of a female scholar in modern times. She remembered her first love: In the 38th year of the Republic of China, there was a strong wind and heavy rain, and the flood flooded half of Yiyang. In this flood, I lost my love.
In an instant, the color of the entire world faded away.
"Hey, there's someone there," someone shouted.
Wang Zijin's entire body shook. She turned her head abruptly and looked over.
More than ten meters away, a human head popped out of the surface of the river. It bobbed up and down for a moment, then swam towards the shore. After climbing ashore, it walked towards them.
The sparse crowd let out cries of joy. The only regret was that he was alone.
Wang Zijin stood rooted to the ground as she watched him walk over. This idiot stood in front of her, stroked his bangs, and sighed. "I didn't save anyone."
He looked extremely miserable. His entire body was drenched, and muddy yellow water dripped down along his body. His hair and face were covered in mud and sand. His left ear was struck, and a stream of blood flowed out. There were many scars on his arms.
Qin Ze was a little depressed that he didn't manage to save her.
The undercurrent at the bottom of the river was turbulent, mixed with mud and gravel. It was impossible to open one's eyes. If a person was sucked into the undercurrent, they would disappear in an instant. No one could find them no matter how hard they tried.
He had overestimated himself.
"Wasn't I handsome just now?" Qin Ze tried to find joy in his misery.
"Slap."
Wang Zijin raised her hand to slap him in response. The tears that she had been holding back for a long time rolled down.
"I was wrong." Qin Ze opened his arms and wanted to hug her, but when he thought about his embarrassing appearance, he awkwardly stopped himself.
Wang Zijin took the initiative to throw herself into his arms. She cried and wailed.
"What does this have to do with you? Who told you to be a hero? If you save someone, at most I'll thank you. If you fail, you'll lose your life. Can you be more mature?"
"Are you crazy? Who wants you to save them? Who wants you to save them?"
"If something happens to you, how am I supposed to live? If I want to live, Bao Bao will kill me."
She cried and scolded at the same time.
Qin Ze kept saying that he was wrong, but he couldn't explain that he had measured it in his heart. With his physical strength, he could swim three laps in the whirlpool. Holding his breath for ten minutes wouldn't be a problem.
If he said that, he would probably be slapped again.
"I'm still angry. Slap me again." Wang Zijin cried.
"Slap, slap me to death." Qin Ze coaxed her.
"Slap."
A loud slap landed on her face.
Qin Ze: "…"
You really hit me.
"Slap."
Sister Ziyan gave her another backhanded slap.
This wasn't over. She slapped him twice more, as if to vent all her emotions.
Wang Zijin took two deep breaths. The anger in her heart was finally gone.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the rescue team came. They were dragging a kayak and wearing survival suits.
"Two were washed away by the water, right? Did any of them float up?" the leader asked.
"One, just one." The person beside him explained, "This one jumped down to save people. He came up, but the other one didn't."
They should be dead by now.
"I didn't touch anyone. They might have been swept away by the water," Qin Ze said.
The leader nodded. As usual, he said some words of thanks and criticism. He reminded him not to be impulsive if he encountered such a thing again. Then, he led the others and paddled the kayak downstream to try to pull the people up.
Wang Zijin wiped the sand off Qin Ze's face with a tissue. She wanted to take him back to the hotel where they were staying to take a shower and change clothes. At this moment, she received a call from the motorcade.
"President Wang, the car is blocked on the road. They want to rob the supplies. What should we do?"
The person who called was the head of Tianfang Entertainment's logistics department. This time, he was recruited by Qin Ze to be a strong man. He followed the motorcade all the way. The truck driver was hired.
Wang Zijin asked for the location and hung up the phone. She frowned and said, "The car is blocked on the road. They want to rob the supplies."
Qin Ze frowned. "Get the city government to deal with it."
Wang Zijin: "I called, but no one came to deal with it."
Considering how busy everyone was, it was understandable that they did not have enough manpower.
Qin Ze and Wang Zijin went back the way they came. After walking for about ten minutes, they saw dozens of residents of the disaster area blocking the three trucks. They blocked the front of the truck and did not want to let them go.
The head of the logistics department shouted. The residents were equally agitated.
"What's going on?" Qin Ze and Wang Zijin squeezed their way in.
The head of the logistics department heaved a sigh of relief. They had managed to hold on until the boss arrived, so he explained the situation to him.
There was a large-scale power outage in the city and suburbs. Many people's phones were out of battery and did not know where to get supplies. They were all relying on the surplus food at home.
Meanwhile, some people were panicking because of the flood and wanted to stockpile more food. Hence, they wanted to rob the transport trucks.
Qin Ze climbed onto the truck and stood at the front of the truck. He took a deep breath and said loudly, "Everyone, listen to me."
Everyone looked in the direction of his voice.
Qin Ze said, "You all know me, right? I'm Qin Ze."
The effect was not bad. The noisy crowd quieted down a lot.
Qin Ze continued, "There will be bread and mineral water, but not here. Go to the distribution point to get your supplies …"
There were still people who did not give him face. For example, an auntie retorted, "It's the same for us here. We won't leave if you don't give it to us."
Her tone was shameless.
A commotion broke out.
Qin Ze tried his best to suppress his voice and said loudly, "Listen to me. You can't get any supplies by blocking here. I can guarantee that not a bottle of water or a loaf of bread will be given. "And you have to be prepared to be detained for obstructing disaster relief. Don't think that the law can't punish the masses. This is a critical period. If you block the road like this, you will only add to the burden of the government."
Seeing the looks of disdain on everyone's faces, he said in a deep voice, "We're not a government department. Donating resources is out of kindness, not an obligation. If your actions are exposed on the Internet, what will other people think? What will other donors think? "Let's not talk about anything else. Just the fact that you are blocking the road will hinder traffic. "Just a few kilometers in front of us, there is a river. Not long ago, someone slipped and fell into the water. "Look at me now. I jumped into the water to save people. Unfortunately, I didn't manage to save them. "If such an accident happens again, but the road is blocked by you, what should I do? Tell me what to do. "
No one in the crowd answered.
Wang Zijin stood by the car, raised her head, and looked at the man who spoke in a rhythmic tone.
Qin Ze continued, "If you want supplies, you can follow behind the transport vehicle. It will take you across the river and take you to the distribution point to get food. But here, it is absolutely not possible. The outside world is paying attention to the once-in-a-century flood in Luoshui City, but there are not many people who can really help you. You have to know how to save yourself, not cause trouble. Shouldn't you all want to see us overcome this crisis as soon as possible? Everyone should cooperate with the government, not cause trouble. "
"Now, everyone step back and let the car pass."
A few scattered people retreated, causing a group effect. Most of the people retreated silently.
There were still a few uncles and aunties blocking the front of the car. Qin Ze jumped down and threw them away like chickens.
"Go, go, go. Hurry up and drive." The Logistics Minister took the opportunity to order the driver to drive.
When most people chose to let them go, a few aunties were unwilling to give up and tried to stop the truck. However, they were not enough to pose a threat and were thrown away by Qin Ze one by one.
The truck slowly crossed the flat bridge. Before crossing the bridge, Qin Ze asked the residents on the side. After getting an affirmative answer, he let the car pass.
The two of them did not follow the car to the next distribution point. Instead, they returned the way they came. At three o 'clock in the afternoon, they finally arrived at the hotel.
This place was far from the city and was not affected by the flood. The two of them drove here. They planned to rest for the night and return to Shanghai tomorrow morning.
On the way back to the hotel, Wang Zijin was still sulking. She didn't like to talk to him and had a sour expression on her face.
Qin Ze found it hard to imagine her fear and sadness. People's emotions were different.
Wang Zijin felt that his attitude of admitting his mistake was not sincere enough.
She was still considerate. If it were an ordinary couple, it would have escalated to a quarrel and a breakup.
At eight o 'clock in the evening, after dinner, Qin Ze sat by the window with a cigarette in his mouth and listened to the rain.
In the bathroom, Wang Zijin was taking a shower. Qin Ze shamelessly asked to take a shower with her and was kicked out by her.
The sound of water stopped, and then the noise of the hairdryer was heard.
A few minutes later, Wang Zijin walked to the window in a bathrobe.
"Hey."
"Hey, hey. You're willing to talk to me? "
"If I don't talk, can't you coax me? You don't even coax your girlfriend half as well as your sister."
"Actually," Qin Ze turned around and looked at her. "I watched a video during the day. Boom! The house collapsed and the people were gone. At that time, my heart clenched and I felt terrible. I wasn't completely impulsive. I thought about it and felt that I would be fine. However, I still couldn't save him. "
Wang Zijin sighed and hugged his head. She pressed it against her chest and said, "There are three great misconceptions in life. You can kill under the tower; I can kill him; you can save him."
Qin Ze said, "That makes sense. I won't do it again."
The fragrance of the shower gel wafted into his nose. Qin Ze licked her open collar.
Wang Zijin's delicate body trembled. She said softly, "Azé, let's sleep."
"Mm."
"Sleep with me."
"Mm … Mm?"
