Tang Chuxia looked at her second older brother as he hunched over and gritted his teeth sympathetically, really afraid he wouldn’t hold up, and called out, “Mom, I’m hungry!”

Madam Tang dropped what she was doing with her son and came over to check on Tang Chuxia, her heart aching for her.

When the earthquake first struck, Madam Tang had been searching for Tang Chuxia, to no avail.

It was later that Father Tang received a call and found out that his son and daughter had come to the disaster area.

Since his unit was organizing a rescue team, Madam Tang signed up to join in.

She immediately inquired about her son and daughter upon arrival, and it just so happened she learned that Tang Chuxia had displayed astonishing powers, only to collapse from exhaustion, which led to the scene just now.

Madam Tang took out a lunch box from her bag and set it in front of Tang Chuxia, “Eat up, I guessed you definitely haven’t had time to eat properly.”

The lunch box was filled with Tang Chuxia’s favorites.

It was clear Madam Tang really doted on Tang Chuxia, to the extent that even when Tang Jianjun peeked over wanting a bite, he was glared back.

Cuddling against Madam Tang, Tang Chuxia acted coy, “Mom is the best, brother just knows how to be mean to me!”

Tang Jianjun: …

Sometimes he doubted whether his sister was the mutant of the family; how could she wear so many different faces?

And why did it always sound so convincing?

When it came to setting him up, she never pulled her punches, did she?

And to think he had just been worried about this girl.

Madam Tang shooed Tang Jianjun out, watching Tang Chuxia eat with a pained expression, fearful she wouldn’t eat enough and lose even a little weight—that would surely break her heart.

Tang Chuxia didn’t eat much, as her body was currently in a state of repair.

Although it was invisible on the outside, every muscle inside her body was trembling, making her feel like screaming at any moment.

After yawning, Tang Chuxia told her mother, “Mom, don’t worry, I’m fine, I’ll feel better after some sleep!”

Madam Tang patted her back, “Alright, you rest, I’ll stay here with you.”

Tang Chuxia hummed in acknowledgment and closed her eyes to sleep.

Listening to her daughter’s snoring, Madam Tang carefully stepped out only to see both her son and husband waiting at the door.

“She’s asleep, is she really okay?”

Madam Tang looked worriedly at Tang Jianjun, who shook his head, “I don’t know, little sis said she’s fine.”

Madam Tang sighed, “She’s always been one to share good news and not the bad, she’s known never to tell us the truth since she was young.”

When it came to her health, Tang Chuxia always tended to hide the truth.

They only discovered something was amiss when Tang Chuxia couldn’t bear it anymore.

“Jianjun, you should also go rest inside a bit.

Your father and I need to get busy, after all, we did sign up to work.”

Tang Jianjun didn’t object and told them to be careful; he indeed needed some rest.

Father Tang and Madam Tang busied themselves with their own tasks, naturally, they did not notice that a conversation was happening inside a tent at that moment.

The leader gestured for Beihuai to sit down and talk.

“The person was your recommendation, what are you thinking now?”

Simply possessing Divine Power wasn’t enough to keep them overly concerned, but Tang Chuxia was different.

The leadership had investigated her life and knew she might be even more formidable than she appeared!

Beihuai, shocked by Tang Chuxia’s previous nonsensical talk, now only uttered a sound of acknowledgment when he heard the leader’s words.

“No thoughts, it’s up to the leadership’s arrangements!”

After he finished speaking, the leader sighed, “I’m your uncle, not a stranger; why so cautious?

What could I possibly do to that girl?”

He scrutinized Beihuai up and down, “Or is it that you have some thoughts about that girl?

Do you not want to let her go with us?”

Beihuai looked up at him, his eyes filled with disbelief.

“Is there a problem with my ears, or are you joking with me?”

The leader cracked a smile but then collected himself, realizing that this place was definitely not suited for laughter.

“Alright, no more chit-chat, get busy.

Rescuing people is critical.

Think about what I said; I don’t believe you have no plan at all.”

Gu Beihuai was shooed out, and he didn’t hesitate to join the ranks of those rescuing the disaster-stricken populace.

The damage here was significant, and more and more people were joining the effort.

However, the frequent aftershocks made the rescue very difficult.

This night was destined to be sleepless.

In the middle of the night, someone went looking for Tang Chuxia.

“Mr.

Tang, we need you to work hard again!”

The person who came felt bashful, but their eyes were filled with hope.

They had found a spot where children were trapped underneath rubble, unable to lift the stone by any means, and afraid that breaking it would surely injure the children.

Without asking any questions, Tang Chuxia threw off her blanket, got out of bed, and put on her shoes.

Tang Jianjun opened his mouth as if to say something, but Tang Chuxia placed her hand on his arm: “Second Brother, I know what I’m doing!”

Tang Jianjun could only sigh and went along with her, for he was worried about Tang Chuxia.

Having rested for half the night, her body had recovered quite a bit.

Tang Chuxia arrived at the disaster site.

Many people held flashlights and torches, clearly illuminating the scene.

She saw Gu Beihuai and the others, said no unnecessary words, and went straight to assess the situation.

“I can pry this stone off, but I can’t guarantee that no small stones will fall!”

She didn’t know whom to address, so she simply spoke to everyone there.

“Just do it, it’s better than just waiting here helpless,” a person who seemed to be in charge made a swift decision.

Tang Chuxia hummed in acknowledgment.

Lightning illuminated the sky, suggesting that vast weather changes were bound to follow the disaster.

If people weren’t rescued in time, the chances of survival for those buried below would become even slimmer with snow or rain.

She asked someone to shine a flashlight below and called out to the children.

The massive stone block was pried off by her like tofu, and regardless of how many times they’d seen it, the people on-site gasped in amazement.

Tang Chuxia noticed that dropping the stone still caused the adjacent rocks to tremble and fall.

Without a second thought, she kicked, shattering the nearby falling rocks.

“Quick!”

She yelled, and the people waiting nearby rushed to extract the children from the ruins.

“My little sister is still down there!”

Just when they thought everyone had been rescued, a girl pointed downward and yelled.

Tang Chuxia happened to stand at an angle where she could see a child lying motionless.

She had an ominous hunch.

This was the first time she felt helpless.

Tang Jianjun jumped down and carried the lifeless child out.

Tang Chuxia glanced over; the child had already stopped breathing, and their small form was unrecognizable, limbs dangling, a sight that saddened anyone who saw it.

Someone couldn’t hold back their tears, and Tang Chuxia stood there in a daze, the sense of helplessness dissipating any previous feelings of relief.

“Look at me!”

Gu Beihuai’s voice sounded behind Tang Chuxia, and he slapped her shoulder vigorously.

Tang Chuxia looked at him blankly.

“It’s not your fault; she was dead already!”

After Gu Beihuai had finished speaking, Tang Chuxia responded with an “I know!” She could tell—if the child had been affected by her actions just now, she wouldn’t look the way she did.

“So don’t blame yourself.

There are so many more people waiting to be rescued by you, not for you to feel miserable here!”

Gu Beihuai pulled her away from the wreckage to another site.

Tang Chuxia followed him blankly, her gaze fixed on the hand holding hers.
