215: You heartless person are finally back!

Hearing someone call him, Jiang Zhengkang turned around, his eyes instantly welling up with tears: "Fei Fei!"

"An earthquake suddenly happened two days ago. Liu Yuan was injured in his right leg protecting Xiao Shi. He and Yao Jin are now at the Hospital in the Safety Shelter."

"All the goods in the store were crushed underneath. Han Yang and I came back to see if we could dig some out."

Jiang Zhengkang and Han Yang were wearing dirty short-sleeved shirts, with slight abrasions on their faces and arms.

Their gloves were also torn, and their exposed fingernails were covered in blood.

A small pile of dried vegetables and fruits they had dug out lay on the ground beside their feet.

Jiang Fei felt a pang.

She understood that Uncle and Han Yang wanted to minimize her losses.

After all, both stores and the warehouse on the back street had collapsed.

In the eyes of others, these were her storage places for supplies, and now they were all buried under the rubble, no different from bankruptcy.

Unable to mention the existence of the Gold Swallowing Supermarket, Jiang Fei took out a plastic bag, put the dried vegetables and fruits inside, and said:

"Don't worry about the goods inside, you two get in the car and tend to your wounds."

"My boss still has a lot of goods, so there’s no need to worry about not having supplies."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhengkang and Han Yang obediently got into the RV.

Taking out the first-aid kit from a cabinet in the car, Jiang Fei and Lu Yu together helped them treat their wounds.

Only then did they learn that the residential buildings in the Safety Shelter and the buildings in Dongyang District had undergone a second reinforcement and were not damaged by the earthquake.

However, the single-reinforced low-rise houses, shops, and Common sleeping area were mostly affected.

Even the Planting Base had a third of its buildings collapsed.

Fortunately, the staff were fine. Ling Zhaorui returned from the Planting Base and is currently at the Hospital taking care of Su Liuyuan.

Yao Jin and Niu Er are also at the Hospital.

On the day of the earthquake, Yao Damang, worried about Yao Jin who was at the store, drove over but was hit by a collapsing wall halfway.

Fortunately, he encountered a Rescue Team, and Yao Damang was promptly sent to the Hospital for emergency treatment.

With the store collapsed and no place to live, Jiang Zhengkang, Han Yang, and Jiang Xiaoshi are temporarily staying at 0-04 in Dongyang District.

Jiang Fei drove Jiang Zhengkang and Han Yang back to clean up.

The water contamination issue had been resolved, so they could use water without worry.

Afterward, following the ward address given by Jiang Zhengkang, she went to the inpatient department of the Hospital.

As soon as she reached the corridor on the second floor, she saw Yao Jin sitting on a long bench.

He was looking down, fiddling with a tissue in his hand, his leopard-print suit dirty and stained with a little blood.

Niu Er stood beside him, his eyes red, clearly having cried.

Noticing Jiang Fei and Lu Yu, Niu Er forced a smile: "Miss Jiang, when did you two get back?"

Jiang Fei: "Just now, Yao..."

"Let's talk over there." Niu Er interrupted Jiang Fei for the first time.

They walked to the corner of the staircase before he said,

"The big boss is dead."

"It happened yesterday at noon. The big boss's injuries were too severe, with multiple open comminuted fractures, organ damage, and excessive blood loss. The Hospital couldn't save him."

Niu Er tried hard to control his emotions: "The young boss can't accept reality. He hasn't said a word for a day and a night, just sitting outside the ward where the big boss passed away."

"I was afraid you might mention the big boss and upset him, so I brought you here."

Unexpectedly, Yao Damang had already passed away, and Jiang Fei fell silent.

The scene of Yao Damang coaxing Yao Jin to eat food inexplicably appeared in her mind.

The person who loved Yao Jin the most was gone.

There was no way to comfort him in such a situation. Jiang Fei went downstairs and found a secluded corner, then took out a box of beer from the Supermarket warehouse.

Immediately, she handed it to Niu Er.

"Let him vent."

"Thank you, Miss Jiang." Niu Er hugged the beer box, no longer able to control his grief, and burst into tears.

Jiang Fei and Lu Yu walked towards the ward at the end of the second floor.

It was a five-person ward.

The door was not closed. Su Liuyuan's bed was the closest to the door.

His right leg was in a cast, and he was sitting up, eating cup noodles.

Ling Zhaorui sat by the bed, peeling oranges he had brought from home for him.

Su Liuyuan was the first to see Jiang Fei and Lu Yu, exclaiming in surprise: "You're back!"

"Sister Jiang, Brother Lu, please sit." Ling Zhaorui pulled out small stools from under the bed and gave them to the two.

Jiang Fei sat down and asked Su Liuyuan: "How is your leg?"

"I'm blessed with great luck; I just got hit by a shelf. The doctor said it's a hairline fracture and will be fine after three months of rest."

"Didn't Chu Xia come with you to see me?"

"She didn't return to the Safety Shelter." Jiang Fei told Su Liuyuan and Ling Zhaorui about Xiao Chuxia staying in Changhai.

Including the Underground City established by the Dark Night Mercenary Group,

Lu Yu: "I brought back the diamonds you wanted. I'll give them to you when you get home."

"Then let's go back now!" Su Liuyuan didn't even eat his instant noodles anymore.

"My injury isn't serious; staying in the Hospital would only occupy a bed and delay those who truly need treatment."

"If it weren't for the car breaking down, Ling Zhaorui and I would have gone home already."

Just in case, Lu Yu still went to ask the doctor.

After confirming that Su Liuyuan could be discharged to recuperate, he used his points to buy a wheelchair and pushed it back, helping him out of bed.

Ling Zhaorui, meanwhile, gave the remaining food and drinking water to the other people in the ward.

Passing by Yao Jin on the long bench, Su Liuyuan and Ling Zhaorui, usually talkative, were surprisingly quiet.

Living on the same floor, they knew Yao Damang had passed away.

At such a time, any words seemed pale and powerless.

Yao Jin could only come to terms with it himself.

Jiang Fei and the others silently left.

There was no elevator in the Hospital. Ling Zhaorui and Lu Yu supported Su Liuyuan, one on each side, helped him downstairs, and put him in the car to lie down.

Lu Yu was responsible for driving, and Jiang Fei sat on the sofa, stating her plan to move to the capital.

"If you don't want to go, I will leave you with enough supplies."

Ling Zhaorui: "Sister Jiang, I'll follow you."

His life was saved by Sister Jiang, so he naturally had to stay by her side.

At least if danger arose, he could still help Sister Jiang block a knife.

Su Liuyuan also chose to go to the capital.

The RV was comfortable and wouldn't be bumpy, allowing him to recuperate in the car.

Upon arriving in Dongyang District, Lu Yu and Ling Zhaorui took Su Liuyuan home.

Jiang Fei asked Su Liuyuan for the key and returned to 0-02.

As soon as she opened the door, the first, second, third, and fourth chickens clucked and cackled, surrounding her.

The wooden perch in the cage had fallen, but it hadn't injured them, and there was still more than half of the millet in the feeding trough.

The potatoes and sweet potatoes from the field had been harvested and were placed in a box in the corner.

Noticing a notebook placed on top of the box, Jiang Fei picked it up and flipped through it.

It was Su Liuyuan's record of crop growth data.

The Supermarket's fountain water, diluted a hundred or a thousand times, still had a ripening effect on crops.

She could give some to the Planting Base before leaving.

Jiang Fei thought, entering the house.

It was a mess.

The table lamp and vase were broken, and furniture like the sofa and cabinets had shifted from their original positions due to the earthquake.

Suddenly, a pattering sound rang out.

Big Yellow ran down the stairs and climbed up Jiang Fei's leg into her arms.

"Meow meow meow!"

You heartless bipedal beast, you're finally back!

The house is almost torn apart!

"Be good, don't move." Jiang Fei checked Big Yellow's body.

Finding no injuries, she felt relieved.

She poured a small bag of catnip on the table for Big Yellow to play with, while Jiang Fei took tools to clean up the glass shards and other trash on the floor.

Some of the kitchen utensils were also lost.

After cleaning the first floor, Jiang Fei went upstairs to check the rooms.

There were no fragile items in the bedroom; only the generator and floor humidifier had fallen but were still usable.

Big Yellow's cat room was a sight to behold.

The cat litter in the litter box, mixed with excrement, was scattered all over the floor.

The coral fleece cat tree had fallen to the ground, conveniently flattening a few piles of cat poop.

Various toys were strewn everywhere, all covered in used cat litter.

The only things completely intact were Big Yellow's two stainless steel bowls for food and water.

Jiang Fei put on a mask and cleaned up.

There were still many pet supplies in the Supermarket warehouse. Jiang Fei was too lazy to clean the cat tree and toys, so she took them downstairs and threw them away directly.

When they went to the capital, she would set up a proper cat room for Big Yellow.

After piling all the trash in the yard, Jiang Fei was about to go out and throw it away when Lu Yu came over.

"Uncle Jiang has made dinner. He asked me to come and call you to eat at 0-04."

"I also came to get the diamonds I promised Su Liuyuan."

"Okay." Jiang Fei led Lu Yu into the Supermarket warehouse.

Lu Yu chose three green diamonds the size of pigeon eggs and two red diamonds.

Jiang Fei led the person out.

Before leaving, Lu Yu conscientiously helped Jiang Fei take away the trash in the yard and throw it away.
