I could no longer hear the rain, meaning it had stopped outside, although the sky remained overcast, it was indeed not raining anymore, it was just cold.
Tang Yuxin wrapped herself up in the blanket, but even so, she could feel the chill brought in by the cold wind from outside.
She had heard that Yun City never experienced winter, but the temperature difference within a single day was very significant.
She hadn’t noticed it before, but now she had truly experienced it.
Just a few days ago, it had clearly been summer, but now, after just one day, it felt like autumn had arrived.
“Get up.”
Gu Ning set up a small table and placed the food he had prepared that morning on it, “Let’s wait another half a day, and if nothing happens, we can go back inside.
We’ll come out again in the evening.”
Alright, Tang Yuxin had no objections, but she still felt safer here.
Indeed, she knew there were no more aftershocks, but under such circumstances, she couldn’t help but feel that safety was the priority.
Gu Ning brought out the food he had cooked.
It was two bowls of noodles and some potato strips fried by Gu Ning.
Gu Ning’s knife skills were a bit lacking, so the potato strips were rather thick, but the taste was good, and the meal was edible.

As long as one wasn’t too demanding, it could be considered perfect.
Especially now, they were not picky at all; as long as there was food in their mouths, that was all that mattered.
There were probably many people who had nothing to eat or drink.
“Let’s make do with this for now.”
Gu Ning handed Tang Yuxin the porridge, “I don’t know how to steam buns, so we only have porridge to drink.”
“I’ll go steam some soon,” said Tang Yuxin after sipping the porridge.
She would steam some buns and rolls because just drinking these soups wouldn’t fill them, and they’ll have to keep going to the bathroom.
After eating, I’ll take a look outside.
Tang Yuxin raised her head and gazed at him for a long while.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.
I’m just going to look around and see if there’s anyone else out there.”
Tang Yuxin took another sip of porridge from her bowl; she understood.
“I’ll go with you.”
Tang Yuxin quickly drained the porridge from the bowl.
If Gu Ning was going, she naturally wanted to accompany him.
She wouldn’t stay here alone.
Gu Ning frowned, likely preferring she didn’t go.
“Trust me,” said Tang Yuxin, certain that she had made her own assessments, and Gu Ning had no real reason to refuse.
“Under these circumstances, a doctor like me is more useful than anyone else.”
Gu Ning stroked her hair.
Yes, he couldn’t argue; a doctor was indeed crucial now, and with Tang Yuxin’s medical skills, she could do things others simply couldn’t.
After finishing the porridge and even devouring the whole plate of Gu’s special fried potatoes, Gu Ning cleaned up the dishes and headed to the kitchen to wash them.
When he came back out, Tang Yuxin had already changed into a new set of clothes.
Tang Yuxin powered on her cellphone, and seeing its full battery brought her immense comfort.
Having this small device gave her a profound sense of peace.
She held the phone to her ear and dialed Tang Zhinian’s number.
Meanwhile, in Beijing, Tang Zhinian had been waiting since early morning for his daughter’s call.
Not just him, a bunch of people were waiting, including the parents from the Gu and Wang Families, and Gu Ning’s older brother had come over as well.
People from the Wang Family had also arrived, and now apart from the children who were unaware of the world’s hardships, sent off to kindergarten, a group of people were all staring at a single phone, eager to know the situation on the other end.
When Tang Zhinian tried calling Tang Yuxin, however, her phone was turned off.
At that moment, his anxiety nearly sent his blood pressure through the roof, until Ren Li calmed him down.
Wasn’t it he himself who suggested that Tang Yuxin turn off her phone to save battery since the power might go out?
Tang Zhinian then managed to contain his impatience, but he was still anxious.
Without contact from his daughter, his heart was restless and worried.
Soon, he started glaring at his phone, his eyes hurting from the strain.
Each time the phone rang, his heart twisted, only to find that it wasn’t Tang Yuxin calling.
Annoyed, he told everyone not to call his phone unless necessary.
His daughter’s life was still uncertain, and he couldn’t stand to hear any other voices.
Then the phone finally rang, and this time, Tang Yuxin’s cell phone number appeared on the display.
Tang Zhinian felt tears nearly escape.
Finally, finally.
Yes, finally, the call had come.
He hurriedly switched to speakerphone so that everyone could hear the situation on the other end.
“Yuxin, how are you?” he asked urgently.
“Dad, both Gu Ning and I are fine,” Tang Yuxin replied, then handed the phone to Gu Ning to let him explain the situation to the family.
She had already heard many voices, so presumably, everyone had gathered.
Taking the phone, Gu Ning briefly outlined the current situation.
“Yuxin and I are going out to see if there are any other people around, and if it’s possible for us to leave?”
“Don’t just wander off,” implored Gu’s mother, who had not stopped crying since hearing Gu Ning’s voice.
“You should stay put and wait for rescue.
Oh and, do you have enough to eat?
I heard from your father that you had prepared quite a bit.”
“Yes,” Gu Ning didn’t hide anything, speaking optimistically, and the truth wasn’t far off.
“We still have two bags of rice, a bag of flour, several cases of instant noodles, and a bunch of snacks and milk boxes.

All these have filled up a whole room.”
“And what about water?” Gu’s mother immediately inquired further, having heard about the power outages and water shortage.
“We have water,” Gu Ning exhaled in relief.
“Yuxin doesn’t like the local water, so I had some delivered.
The person delivered too much, bringing over more than ten barrels, so we aren’t worried about running out of water.”
Hearing that there was both food and water, Gu’s mother finally relaxed.
As long as they had food and water, everything would be alright.
“You haven’t been hurt, have you?” She continued her questioning, struggling to hold back the tears in her voice.
“Mom, don’t worry, Yuxin and I were outside at the time and weren’t injured.
Also, the house is intact and hasn’t collapsed.”
“Thank heavens,” Gu’s mother finally exhaled a sigh of relief.
Her heart, which had been so tightly wound, relaxed as well.
