Love So Sweet

335 I Can’t Find Our Daughter

Y City Hospital,

As the nurse turned around and left his office, Bai Qi grabbed his phone and dialed his girlfriend’s number. He waited for a while before the call finally entered the voice message.

Seeing that she did not pick up the phone, Bai Qi could guess that his girlfriend should be busy with her work in H City.

Earlier that day, Zhang Li Xue had mentioned meeting with the architect and the others to discuss the hotel building.

After sending her a text, he then left his phone in the office and headed to the operating theatre.

There was an important surgery and it was expected that it will take them a few hours.

He thought that he would be able to talk to his little fairy before going in. But it seemed that he will have to wait until the surgery is over.

...

Back in H City,

.....

A group of people began to gather around the collapsed hotel building.

Perhaps, the structure of the building itself was not that sturdy. Perhaps, cheap materials were used previously to build this hotel. Therefore, after the earthquake, the building easily collapsed.

Zhang Yu Han stood in front of the building, pulling out the rubble by hands one by one. At the side, the people who lived nearby began to come to look at the situation and helped him.

Someone called the authorities for help, but it seemed that they might be arriving a little late. There were a lot of affected areas and there are many places to go.

In the end, Zhang Yu Han could only rely on the local people for help.

Zhang Yu Han has been working on removing the rubble for a long time without resting. The only thing that he could think of was his daughter.

All sorts of emotions went through him and all sorts of thoughts went through his mind as he continued to look for her.

At this time, Zhang Yu Han was regretting his decision to come to H City. If he did not take his daughter to this city, his daughter would be safe.

He shouldn’t let his daughter go with the others. He should have stayed close to her side.

He should have...

Zhang Yu Han snapped out of his thought when he felt someone tugging on his shoulder. His eyes narrowed dangerously. One could see that he was annoyed that someone had disturbed him as he was looking for his daughter.

Turning around, Zhang Yu Han saw a young man standing in front of him.

“Hey, Mister, your phone has been ringing for a while, the young man spoke.

It was only now that Zhang Yu Han realized that his phone has been ringing for a while. He thanked the young man before pulling his phone from his pocket.

Seeing the name on the caller ID made his heart lurch.

Zhang Yu Han did not know just how was he going to talk to his wife about what happened.

However, he knew very well that if he did not answer this call, his wife will only be worried.

After a brief hesitation, Zhang Yu Han finally picked up the phone call.

He pressed the phone to his ear and heard his wife’s anxious voice.

“Yu Han, is that you?”

“Un. It’s me.” Zhang Yu Han’s voice was hoarse.

“Yu Han, I saw it on the news,” Li Qin Yao spoke. “They were reporting the earthquake in H City everywhere.”

Li Qin Yao was watching the television when she first saw the breaking news. A lot of photos and videos were shared. The moment she saw the news, Li Qin Yao began to worry about her husband and daughter.

She grabbed her phone and called her husband and daughter anxiously.

Her daughter’s number could not be reached.

Then, Li Qin Yao seemed to remember that her husband had mentioned that the signal in the building was not that good.

She dialed her husband’s number. However, her husband was not picking up the call.

Li Qin Yao was anxious.

As time pass by, her heartbeat accelerated and she was unable to calm down.

Fortunately, after dialing his number for the fifth time, the man finally picked up the phone. “Yu Han, fortunately, you are safe.”

This time, she did not go with her husband on this trip. If something was to happen to her husband, Li Qin Yao did not know how she was going to face it.

“Are you alright?”

Zhang Yu Han bit his lips to control his emotion. “Un. I’m alright.”

“What about Li Xue?” Li Qin Yao asked. “Is she alright?”

Zhang Yu Han felt a lump in his throat.

Tears brimmed under his eyes.

He did not know just how was he going to tell his wife that he could not find their daughter.

His lips parted for a few times, but he could not bear to tell his wife what happened.

Zhang Yu Han looked at the rubble in front of him and whimpered. “Qin Yao...”

All of the sudden, Zhang Yu Han could feel his legs getting weaker. He knelt on the ground and swept his gaze around him.

“Yu Han, what’s wrong?” Li Qin Yao could sense that something had happened. “Yu Han?”

“Qin Yao...” Zhang Yu Han called his wife’s name with difficulties again. He inhaled a deep breath and spoke, “Li Xue was in that hotel building when the earthquake happened.”

Li Qin Yao’s heart skipped a beat. She could tell that something had happened to their daughter.

“The building collapsed,” Zhang Yu Han spoke. “Li Xue... she was in the building along with the others. Qin Yao, I can’t find our daughter.”

As the words left his lips, Zhang Yu Han broke down and cried. He raised his hand and clutched at his chest. It was painful.

Zhang Yu Han inhaled a deep breath again to calm down.

He reminded himself that he have to be strong. He could not break down now. His daughter was still waiting for him. He has to look for her.

Li Qin Yao was in a pain as well. Zhang Li Xue was the daughter that they both doted on. She had carried her for months before giving birth to her. Their relationship was very good. Her daughter would share everything with her.

The thought that her daughter was trapped somewhere in the building and they were still unaware of her well-being made her heart ached.

However, Li Qin Yao could feel that her husband was in a lot of pain than her.

Everyone knows just how much Zhang Yu Han loved his daughter. Moreover, he was by Zhang Li Xue’s side when the incident happened.

Li Qin Yao forced herself to calm down. “Yu Han, it’s alright. You go and look for Li Xue again. I will call Qi Ming Wei and the others for help. Li Xue will be alright. We’re going to find her soon.”
