At this moment, the entire villa began to shake violently.
“What are you still doing at the door?!”
Nan Yu’s eyes widened: “Hurry up and go inside!”
Fei Yizheng didn’t say anything, but grabbed Nan Yu. The three of them rushed inside together.
However, just as they were about to step into the shelter, a long, flat rock fell from the sky; the villa couldn’t hold up.
Given the rock’s size, all three of them would have been hit.
In the critical moment, Nan Yu shoved Fei Yizheng into the shelter, simultaneously tossing the doctor behind her toward Li Yuanmo, believing that he would catch him.
As for herself, seeing the rock less than ten centimeters away, Nan Yu spun around and kicked its weakest point, then used the recoil to tumble and roll toward the shelter, finally managing to get inside.
The next second—
A massive slab of concrete blocked the exit, making it impossible for people to get in or out.
Nan Yu wiped the blood that had accidentally been splashed on her face by a stone, and as she got up and walked over to An Ning and the others, she didn’t forget to look around.
At this moment, even inside the shelter, everyone could feel the walls and everything around them shaking violently. For a moment, no one spoke.
In a corner, Nan Yu tightly hugged Fei Yunjin, An Ning held An Yiran, and Li Yuanmo shielded Li Yibai with his body.
If this place collapses too, at least protect the children!
Ten seconds? Or a minute?
No one knew.
All they could hear were deafening crashes.
Has something collapsed again?
Or had the island cracked?
“Woo, woo, are we going to die?”
As the shaking subsided slightly, someone finally broke down in tears.
It was a young maid.
Nan Yu remembered that she was the one who had shown her around the villa when they first arrived yesterday.
She had a cute smile, and it seemed she even had two prominent canine teeth.
Emotions are contagious; once the first person cried, a second and a third would follow.
Because of the earthquake, mobile phone signals were completely gone.
Would no one know they were trapped here, and would they just starve and die of thirst?
Would this shelter also collapse?
Isolation, helplessness, and an uncertain future—these complex emotions gnawed at the fear and anxiety in everyone’s hearts.
“No.”
At this moment, Fei Yizheng’s deep voice carried an inexplicable sense of reassurance.
“We have food and water. We had contacted Nan Ji, the chairman of the Nan Group, before the earthquake. He will come to pick us up soon. You don’t need to worry.”
His words were reasonable and well-founded, avoiding empty promises, which made them all the more convincing.
Then everyone remembered that Nan Yu and the others were also trapped here with them.
That’s right, the chairman’s wife and eldest daughter of the Nan Group were here!
Even if their lives were worthless, these members of the Nan family would definitely do everything in their power to rescue them.
Fei Yizheng’s words effectively calmed everyone’s bewildered and fearful emotions.
The small space fell silent once again.
It was clear that Nan’s father hadn’t cut corners when building this shelter. Even though the ceiling had been dented many times, it remained stubbornly intact, not actually penetrated.
Then, another violent tremor shook the house. No one knew if the house could hold out; earthquakes don’t just happen in one go.
There could be aftershocks at any time, and the power of those aftershocks might just be the last straw that breaks the camel’s back.
“Yu Yu.”
An Ning was nestled tightly beside Nan Yu.
“If anything happens, don’t worry about me!”
She felt a slight pain in her stomach, but An Ning didn’t want to cause trouble at this time, so she only said this.
