Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived-Chapter 504 - 505: Explosion Incident (3)

Breathless gasps came from Nangong Xi at my side.

"No good, run!"

"But I really can’t run anymore..."

As the weight in her palm grew heavier, Gu Qiangwei seemed to sense that Nangong Xi’s strength had been exhausted, yet the long corridor continued to collapse without end.

Looking up, a door appeared on the right ahead. With a gamble-it-all attitude, Gu Qiangwei held on to Nangong Xi tightly, then bent down to lift him up and dashed into the door.

She prayed that after entering through this door, they could avoid the incessant collapsing.

"Ah——"

"Ah——"

Two cries of alarm plummeted with them the moment they went through the door!

.

No one knew how long had passed when the sensation of splitting and the sound of bombardment finally ceased.

Subsequently, nearly half of Jingcheng’s population joined the search and rescue operation.

And within less than five minutes after the incident, all television stations were broadcasting the breaking news of this sudden terrorist attack.

Huo Yishan, who was shocked to hear the news, also rushed to the scene immediately. Upon learning that Gu Qiangwei was trapped inside the building, and it was unknown whether she was alive or dead, Yishan cried her heart out in despair.

"Qiangwei... Qiangwei..."

If only she had known, she would have left with her, then this wouldn’t have happened!

When the shaking stopped, a group of people, almost heedless of the fact that the J Building had changed beyond recognition and could collapse at any moment, charged heroically towards the direction of the first-floor restroom.

However, the corridor leading to the restroom had completely collapsed; there was no way to get through, and even the original restroom had been disfigured beyond recognition, leaving only a pile of ruins.

"No... it can’t be... don’t..."

Looking at the ruins before her, Tang Yuyan’s heart shattered. The next second, she collapsed as she could no longer bear the weight of the devastation, and her body went limp and fell down.

"Yuyan!"

Nangong Mingchuan beside her caught her in time and slowly slid down with her falling body.

With his son’s life and death unknown on one side and his wife falling unconscious on the other, Mingchuan felt as if his heart and lungs had been ripped out in that instant, overwhelmed with grief.

.

"Sister Qiangwei..."

On the other side, the regaining consciousness of Gu Qiangwei was greeted by pitch darkness, as a faint voice came from nearby.

She could not see Nangong Xi, only hear his weak voice.

"Xi?"

Guided by the sound, she fumbled around until she finally found Nangong Xi in the narrow, dark space, but she could not see his condition.

"Xi, are you alright!?" she asked, nervous and scared, as if the person beside her was her closest family member.

She touched Nangong Xi’s clothes, and following the line of his body, she drew him into her arms, comforting him, "Don’t be afraid, Sister is here!"

"Sister... my leg hurts so much..." Nangong Xi’s voice sounded increasingly weak.

Gu Qiangwei was startled, noticing that something was off in his voice.

But it was pitch black in front of her, and she couldn’t see Nangong Xi at all.

Right, the cell phone!

Remembering the cell phone still in her down jacket’s pocket, Qiangwei quickly reached for it, relieved when she felt the familiar touch.

The cell phone was still there!

She took out the phone, quickly turned on the screen, and then activated the flashlight feature. Pointing it downward, she saw that Nangong Xi’s handsome face was still covered in dust, and his complexion looked extremely pale.

Feeling the light, Nangong Xi opened his eyes. Seeing Gu Qiangwei’s face, he seemed to feel a bit more at ease.
