Love So Sweet

339 Should She Just Give Up?

The rescue team was divided into two groups.

One group was helping the others to rescue the people that they had located a while ago and another group was going to continue to look for Zhang Li Xue.

Bai Qi and the others were joining the group to look for Zhang Li Xue.

At this time, Zhang Li Xue’s location was unknown and the others began to scatter to look for her.

At the scene, the people continued to shout the girl’s name loudly, hoping that she would be able to hear them and answer. The paramedics were on standby to treat the victims after they are rescued.

They were afraid that something had happened to the girl. The longer it takes to rescue her, the more dangerous the situation will be for Zhang Li Xue.

Moreover, the temperature around the place continued to drop. They were now worried that Zhang Li Xue would freeze.

It was cold, but Bai Qi’s body was full of sweat.

Some of the stones were quite heavy, but it almost seemed as if Bai Qi could not feel anything. In his mind, the most important thing was to look for his little fairy.

.....

Thinking of how the girl had to stay alone underneath the rubble made his heart ache.

His girlfriend was someone who was afraid of the dark. At night, she had to switch on the lights to sleep. She could only be at ease once someone was accompanying her in the dark.

Bai Qi could still remember how she had hugged him tightly because she was afraid of sleeping in an unfamiliar place in the dark.

How scared she would be to be trapped alone?

Bai Qi was sure that his little fairy was still waiting for them to come and look for her. He had made up his mind that he would not disappoint her.

After removing another piece of rubble, Bai Qi stood up straight and wiped the sweat that almost entered his eyes.

He swept his gaze around the place and saw everyone was working hard to look for Zhang Li Xue. Those people are her family who cared about her a lot.

From the corner of her eyes, Bai Qi saw a woman approaching the collapsed building. A while ago, Bai Qi had seen this woman and another man speaking to Zhang Yu Han. This person should be one of the family’s friends, right?

Just then, that woman took out something from her pocket and whispered some words.

Bai Qi was not too far from her. Naturally, he was able to hear what that woman had spoken: “Go on, Mushu.”

His brow furrowed, wondering if he had misheard her words.

However, this was not something he should be concerned about. The most important thing was to look for Zhang Li Xue.

Bai Qi was about to look away when his gaze met the elder woman’s. Then, he lowered his gaze and started to look for his girlfriend again.

He wanted to find her quickly before something bad was going to happen.

Bai Qi raised his head and coincidentally met the woman’s gaze again. The woman stretched her hand into the rubble before placing her hand back into her pocket.

He could not help but think that this woman’s movement was a little strange.

“Hey, you! Young man!” the elder woman spoke to him. Her expression was a little anxious. “Help me. I think Li Xue is trapped in this part. I can hear her voice. It’s weak, but I’m very sure of it.”

Bai Qi quickly headed over to the elder woman’s side. He did not care if this woman was acting suspiciously. Once he heard that Zhang Li Xue was in that area, Bai Qi quickly went over to look for her.

Listening to the woman’s instructions, Bai Qi continued to pull out the rocks to look for his girlfriend. He was very careful as he did not want the building to collapse again and hurt his girlfriend.

“Li Xue!” Bai Qi shouted her name, hoping that she was going to answer his call.

...

Zhang Li Xue stared at the darkness in front of her and shivered.

She did not know just how long has she been trapped underneath the building. But the darkness made her wary of everything around her.

Once in a while, she could hear some noise. However, no matter how hard she shouted, no one could hear her voice.

Her voice was hoarse. She was in pain, cold, and afraid.

In front of her was a collapsed pillar.

Zhang Li Xue was afraid that if she made some movement, the pillar would crush her to death.

As time passed by, the pain around her legs was starting to numb.

Her eyes were starting to droop. She was too cold and too tired. All she wanted to do was to sleep.

Just then, Zhang Li Xue heard a familiar voice, calling out her name.

Her brow furrowed.

Zhang Li Xue tried to focus on the voice, but she could no longer hear it.

Her lips turned into a sneer.

Zhang Li Xue wondered if perhaps she was dying. Otherwise, how could she hear Bai Qi’s voice calling her name? Everything was her imagination.

Her Doctor Bai was thousands of miles away. How can he suddenly appear in this place?

Zhang Li Xue told herself that she should not be too hopeful. She lowered her eyes again, wanting to succumb to the sleepiness.

Then, she heard the man’s voice again.

“Li Xue!”

Bai Qi’s voice was loud as if telling her that he was close by.

“Li Xue, where are you?”

Hearing his voice again made her sure that she was not imagining things.

Zhang Li Xue forced herself to stay up and shouted, “Bai Qi! I’m here!” Tears streamed down her face. Her voice was too hoarse that she did not know whether Bai Qi was going to hear it.

What if he missed her and could not find her in time?

Zhang Li Xue shouted the man’s name a few times, hoping that he could hear her.

However, she could no longer hear Bai Qi’s voice. Her heart lurched, wondering if Bai Qi had missed her and had gone to look at some other places.

Zhang Li Xue had never felt so disheartened. Should she just give up?

Just then, she heard some movement from the top.

Her cry stiffened and her ears perked up to listen.

One of the stones on top of her was removed and the light was too bright.

Then, she could see Bai Qi’s anxious face through that small opening.

Her lips quivered and Zhang Li Xue started to cry again.
