Cheng Su told Zhu Lifen and the others to leave first and head back to Qing City, while she stayed behind with Qi Taiguo. Qi Taiguo was participating in the rescue efforts, and seeing the crying children, she felt she should do something too.
Zhu Lifen and the others couldn't persuade her, so they could only remind her to stay safe before they left.
The earthquake was a magnitude six, and since it occurred in the evening when everyone was still awake and able to flee, the number of casualties was less than expected. However, there were still people buried in the rubble.
And the news was broadcasted immediately everywhere.
When Joy Soon Loy and Xiao Pinshan saw the news, their faces turned pale.
"This, isn't this the county town that Susu and the others went to?" Ying Xiaoya asked with a pale face.
Xiao Pinshan nodded, his face as white as paper.
Ying Xiaoya burst into tears with a loud wail, "Susu, what do we do now? Susu, ah..."
