I Went Viral After Dating a Superstar-Chapter 192 - 182: The Gap in the Dream

"Sister Qianli, is there any food left? A new boy just arrived here."

"I’m coming,"

Mu Qianli brought some food over.

The pale-faced boy looked at Mu Qianli, numbly eating what she had given him.

That was the expression she saw most frequently today.

"This child is also pitiable; it seems his whole family was buried. He was at school, unaware of his family’s situation, and now he can’t even contact them. It’s unsure whether they can be rescued or not."

Given his age, just eight or nine, his bewildered and helpless demeanor was normal.

Mu Qianli watched as an elderly person walked by, leaning on one another, sighing.

"Where’s Old Li? I haven’t seen him."

"Ah... he didn’t make it out; he’s probably buried..."

"I was outside taking a walk at the time; otherwise, I wouldn’t be here either. When you think about it, young people might withstand being buried, but for us, it would be..."

"Let’s drop it, fortune favors the bold, this isn’t the time to discuss this."

The passing elderly chatted with each other, sighing as they entered the tent.

Having managed to distribute everything, Mu Qianli found a tent to sit down in.

"Sister Qianli, you haven’t eaten yet, have some food."

A young volunteer named Xiao Lan came over to offer Mu Qianli some biscuits.

"It’s okay, I’m not hungry. Do you know about the missing volunteers? Have there been any updates?"

Xiao Lan shook her head, "No news yet; it seems a rescue team has been dispatched. Sister Qianli, you can’t skip meals though. The conditions here are harsh and it’s easy to fall ill. You need to eat well to keep yourself safe!"

Mu Qianli smiled and accepted the food.

"It’s just unexpected; the conditions here are so harsh. Sometimes, seeing these people who’ve lost their family members gives me this overwhelming feeling of helplessness, and I regret why I studied something so useless. If I were a doctor or a soldier, maybe I could change something."

"Sister Qianli... Sometimes I think that way too, but every profession helps people. Some change the world, others might be helping someone fulfill their dreams. I actually envy you, Sister Qianli. You’ve created so many stars and idols, giving us direction in our dull lives, adding so much fun. Changing the world is amazing, but the process is quite mundane, and you all are the zest in that process!"

Mu Qianli paused, looked at Xiao Lan, and smiled warmly, pulling her hand.

Sometimes, the warmest things are encouragements from strangers,

because it feels like receiving a different kind of recognition.

The next day, there was still no news of the volunteers.

On the third day, Mu Qianli entered the tent and heard someone inside saying, "We’re preparing to take a group directly into Kangli; they must be fine, just out of contact. We’re taking powerful radios, it would be great if we could send back news!"

"Captain, do you need more people? I’d like to go."

Mu Qianli lifted the curtain and walked in.

"Mu Qianli? You want to go?" their bearded captain remarked in surprise, "I admire your persistence, but it’s too dangerous for a girl to go."

"Are you being sexist? Captain, this is when I have to advocate for women’s rights. I look stronger than Skinny here next to you, let me go!"

"Hey, is that a personal attack?" Skinny looked helpless.

"Please, I really want to go; I won’t be a burden,"

At times, a girl’s appeal is indeed more effective than sternness.

Big Beard pondered for a moment and finally agreed.
