Chapter 1005: Chapter 999: Earthquake_1 Chapter 1005: Chapter 999: Earthquake_1 “Liang Shaohui, do you think this incident happened on my sister-in-law’s parents’ side, could our boss be there too?” Deng Kai asked Liang Shaohui.
“Maybe he will go, I don’t know.” Liang Shaohui replied, he genuinely didn’t know if Chu Molin would go or not. After all, he is currently studying in the Imperial Capital and is not under the jurisdiction of any local area. Even if he heard the news, it wouldn’t necessarily an that he would rush over imdiately.
What Jing Xin and the others didn’t know was that Qin Xue’s county was unaffected, so by the ti they got the news, it was already the next day.
They didn’t wait long before the plane arrived. After everyone was seated on the plane, it took off straight to H Province without any delay.
“You all should rest now, there won’t be ti to rest after we arrive. I know you all just got back from your assignnts and haven’t had good rest before being given this urgent task. We, as the nation’s support personnel, shoulder great responsibilities, from various research missions to being prepared to head wherever we are needed at any ti. We must be always ready, and seize the ti to rest now. Once we arrive, we’ll have to dive right in, and there will be no ti for rest.
So it’s not just for the people in the disaster area, but also for ourselves and our families, isn’t it?” Jing Xin didn’t know what else to say given the heavy mood, so he simply uttered a few words.
“Deputy Director, we get it. You should take a rest too. We’ve had a few hours’ rest but you haven’t had a minute’s rest yet.” Ding Xi knew what had happened to Jing Xin and how he had been coping these few months. He also knew where Jing Xin went upon returning, and seeing his state now, Ding Xi figured that things still hadn’t been resolved.
Ding Xi never told anyone about Jing Xin and his wife’s issues; he knew what would happen if that news got out. He could guess what would be waiting for Jing Xin if those eager for promotion got their hands on such information. To them, Jing Xin was their superior and friend, so Ding Xi would never dream of causing him harm.
He observed how Jing Xin changed, gone was the gentle, smiling Captain Jing, replaced by a Deputy Director who seed to be influenced by their boss.
In fact, Ding Xi also hoped that Jing Xin could find Fang Xiu and her child soon, because Jing Xin had been living a really harsh life, almost as if he was punishing himself.
“Alright, you all rest now.” Jing said nothing more after hearing Ding Xi’s words, he simply closed his eyes and began ditating.
Seeing Jing’s state, everyone else also closed their eyes to rest, as they were all well aware of the situation they would be heading into, given that this was not their first ti partaking in such a mission. As soon as they arrived in H Province, they imdiately threw themselves into the rescue work without any further conversation.
While waiting for the train, Xie Jun went back ho and left a note for his wife to tell her that he was going to H Province and not to worry about him. He asked her to take good care of herself, especially with her belly growing, and not to work too hard. She should take leave and rest if she could. He was afraid that he might not be there for her if sothing unexpected happened.
Xie Jun knew that he had no control over such incidents, being a civil servant ant that he had the responsibility to go wherever he was needed, hence all household matters had to be handled by his wife.
Xie Jun left the note on the table, locked the door, and walked to the field. He saw that everyone joining the rescue mission had arrived and led them to the train station, leaving only a few people at key positions to continue the research work at the institute.
