Mu Xiaoxiao and Su Lin had no time to react as the other three pillars exploded after it.
Within about a second, the ceiling of the bamboo pavilion swayed and was going to crash down.
“Run——!” Mu Xiaoxiao shouted to Su Lin.
Su Lin was standing further inside. Pale-faced as she saw the ceiling about to e crashing down, Su Lin suddenly reached out and pushed Mu Xiaoxiao.
Falling out of the bamboo pavilion, Mu Xiaoxiao heard the loud crash behind her acpanied by Su Lin’s shriek.
“Su Lin!” Mu Xiaoxiao screamed anxiously.
Han Qiqing and Song Shijun had reacted immediately following the first explosion.
Unfortunately, when they ran over, it was already too late. They could only witness the scene of Su Lin disappearing under the sea of bamboo.
The other students who were playing nearby were also frightened by the crashing noises, and they turned to look.
Everyone was shocked at the sight of the collapsed bamboo pavilion.
Han Qiqing rushed to the Mu Xiaoxiao’s and asked worriedly, “Xiaoxiao, are you okay?”
Mu Xiaoxiao stood up and said anxiously, “I’m fine. Save Su Lin quickly! She is buried inside!”
Putting aside his usual playfulness, Song Shijun’s expression was strict as he instructed Han Qiqing, “Hurry up and call the resort’s staff!”
Then he quickly went forward to remove the toppled bamboos.
“Okay!” Han Qiqing was a little slow in her reply, her hand trembled as she took out her cell phone to make the call.
No one ever expected that the autumn outing would end in such a way.

Su Lin was sent to the nearest hospital by emergency evacuation.
Although bamboo was light, the weight of the bamboo when added up was not to be taken lightly.
Fortunately, she was standing in the middle of the pavilion, and the top of the pavilion was concave, so it didn’t crash onto her head, only crushing her foot. It could be said to be a fortunate event in the midst of all the tragedy.
“The damage on the lower leg is more serious. There are some fractures. It would take at least half a month of recuperation…”
After giving some instructions, the doctor assigned nurses to take care of her, and nodded at them before he left the ward.
After the anesthetic had worn off, Su Lin, who was lying on the sickbed, was in so much pain that she kept gasping heavily.
At the side, Yin Shaojie was holding Mu Xiaoxiao tightly as he watched Su Lin. Thinking that Xiaoxiao could very well have been the one lying there in pain instead, his hands tensed as he kissed Mu Xiaoxiao on her forehead.
After the doctor left, Mu Xiaoxiao looked a little grave. She pushed Yin Shaojie away lightly and went to sit by the bed. Then, she stared at Su Lin and said, “How are you feeling now?”
Su Lin was exuding cold sweat from the pain and bit her lower lip. She asked in reply, “What do you think?”
Mu Xiaoxiao sighed. “The doctor said that you have to wait for the anesthetic to wear off before you can take painkillers. Bear with it for awhile.”
“You don’t say?” Su Lin’s tone wasn’t very pleasant.
No one would be in a good mood if they were in this painful situation.
It was rare that Mu Xiaoxiao didn’t try to argue with her. Thinking about what happened earlier, she wore a plicated expression as she stared at Su Lin. Then, she finally asked Su Lin, “Why… Why did help me earlier?”
If it wasn’t for Su Lin who pushed her away, with how fast things happened and how close she was, she probably wouldn’t have been able to escape from the bamboo pavilion.
In other words, she might also have been caught in the collapse, and she probably would have taken greater injuries than Su Lin.
But what she could hardly believe was that Su Lin actually chose to push her away under those circumstances.
