Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Divorce Agreement

Houses collapsed, roads cracked open; a city turned into ruins.

The air was filled with a suppressive atmosphere—cries and moans of agony.

Rescue teams from neighboring cities arrived; when Fu Yi got there, a mother was dragging her leg, crying as she searched for her daughter.

Fu Yi took a deep breath.

...

Shen Liguang slowly opened his eyes. Through a crevice, a faint light seeped in; it was blinding. It took a while before his eyes slowly adapted.

He opened his mouth but couldn’t make a sound.

The air was thin, and he felt dizzy from the lack of oxygen. There was a void before his eyes, with the blurred face of a girl.

He knew they were hallucinations, yet he smiled anyway.

Trapped in the small space beneath the ruins, he finally managed to pull his phone out of his pocket. It turned on but had no signal.

His hand was sticky with blood, making it hard to type on the screen. Shen Liguang paused then wrote a divorce agreement.

Fu Ying didn’t know what she could do. She had waited at home for two days, constantly trying to call Shen Liguang, only to find it unreachable.

On the third day, her elder brother called home and said they hadn’t found Shen Liguang; he might have left City A when the earthquake happened.

If he were fine, he would always answer his phone.

Unable to restrain herself any longer, on the afternoon of the third day after the earthquake, Fu Ying followed a group of university volunteers to the disaster zone.

Entering the disaster area, it was as if it had been washed in blood—life and death laid bare, with crying everywhere. Children were crying out for their parents, desperately, without anyone responding or feeling their pain.

The silhouettes of the rescue workers were tremendously tragic.

Mountains had collapsed, and the vegetation carried their sorrow.

"Fu Ying."

"I’m here." Fu Ying snapped back to reality, withdrew her gaze, and followed after the call.

"There’s someone under here."

Someone shouted, and Fu Ying went to help. A few girls were moving stones with bare hands, clearing the rubble bit by bit to rescue someone trapped below.

For a moment, Fu Ying was dazed, imagining one day she would become useful like him.

Before she knew it, night had fallen, and Fu Ying had never been so exhausted. She went with some university volunteers to rest for a while.

Captain Fu briskly walked past her, but a familiar silhouette made him stop in his tracks.

"Why are you here? This is no place for your whims!"

Fu Ying’s motions of stuffing bread into her mouth halted, her eyes reddened, but her voice was surprisingly calm: "I—I’m not being willful. I’ll be good, rational, and not be a burden to you. Big brother, I want to stay. Please don’t send me away, is that okay?"

Captain Fu let out a deep sigh, feeling terribly upset.

He even wished she would cry, act willful—but in fact, in a real emergency, she was too composed.

Captain Fu reached out, pulled her into his arms, and gently stroked her head with a deep sigh: "Take good care of yourself."

Fu Ying nodded: "I know, big brother."

"Captain Fu, we’re moving out."

Captain Fu was ready to leave.

Fu Ying quickly stood up and called out to him: "Big brother."

"Hmm?"

Fu Ying: "Be careful."

Captain Fu smiled: "Take care of yourself."

Fu Ying nodded gently and then realized her brother had disappeared before she knew it.

The next day, Fu Ying helped wherever she could while seeking news of Shen Liguang.

There was no news of him on the third day.

Nor on the fourth.

By the fifth day, Fu Ying felt utterly dejected.

"Is it really you?"

Someone called out to her. Fu Ying turned around. The man before her looked familiar; she remembered he was Shen Liguang’s high school classmate, Zhao Zhi.

"You..."

"Oh, doctor," Zhao Zhi pointed to the white coat on him.

Fu Ying nodded, hesitated to speak.

Zhao Zhi saw it: "You want to ask about Li Guang?"

Fu Ying’s lips were chapped, she nodded slightly.

Zhao Zhi shook his head, sighed, "Haven’t seen him, might not be in this area, maybe he’s fine, don’t worry too much."

"Thank you." Fu Ying nodded slightly and turned to leave.

On the fifth night, people outside were pacing back and forth, and Fu Ying couldn’t sleep at all.

She saw a small wooden table with many things on it, including cell phones, keychains, photos, all kinds of personal items.

"What’s this?"

"Picked up from the ruins."

Fu Ying’s gaze fell on a black phone inside, she recognized it, it was in her hands.

She took a breath, her heart ached and was suffocating, her heart beating furiously, she couldn’t wait to ask the girl she’d known for a few days, "Is there a place to charge it?"

"I have a power bank, but there’s not much charge left."

"Thank you, I just need it to power on."

Fu Ying hurriedly plugged the phone into the power bank and patiently waited a few minutes before turning it on.

The girl asked, "Do you know the owner of this phone?"

"Um, I know them." Fu Ying bit her lip tightly, took a deep breath not to let tears fall.

He had once recorded his own fingerprint, If her fingerprint didn’t work, it would confirm that she was mistaken.

Her hands trembling, she lightly placed her index finger on the screen, it didn’t unlock, she just breathed a sigh of relief and was about to withdraw her finger when it suddenly unlocked.

The wallpaper was a photo taken that summer day when she followed her grandmother to the countryside, with a green cornfield behind her.

Fu Ying stared blankly, the phone suddenly vibrated, it was a reminder from the memo.

The girl behind reminded her, she came back to her senses, rubbed her eyes, and clicked into the memo.

The screen froze on the glaring words ’Divorce Agreement.’

"Divorce, divorce agreement?" The girl was surprised.

Fu Ying blinked, tears falling down, she shook her head, murmuring, "Impossible."

That day, Fu Ying kept Shen Liguang’s phone on her person, as if nothing had happened, running about everywhere, helping out.

She didn’t even feel the blood from the blisters on her hands, as if she was numb.

It wasn’t until the evening that she had the courage to look carefully at the memo.

Divorce Agreement

Name: Shen Liguang

ID number: 2311xxxxxxxxxxxx622

Both parties were registered for marriage on August 9, 2021, and my relationship with Fu Ying was dissolved on August 24.

Fu Ying lowered her head, her fingers caressing the screen, at this point she didn’t want to cry, but still her nose turned sour, her eyes reddened, and tears fell.

Suddenly someone called her, she quickly wiped the tears away with her hand and ran over.

Fu Ying stayed in the disaster area dazedly for a week, so numb from the exhaustion that she didn’t feel the pain anymore.

School was about to start again, some of the university student volunteers began to return to school.

Fu Ying took Shen Liguang’s phone, found a seat by the window, the car was moving slowly, Fu Ying heard someone outside shouting Shen Liguang.

She quickly turned her head to look out the window, searching for that figure.

That person was limping and heading into the crowd with a few firefighters.

Fu Ying quickly stood up, moving to the door: "Master, I forgot something, can I go and fetch it, just a few minutes."

The driver didn’t say anything, just opened the door.

Fu Ying quickly got off the bus, running in the direction where the person had disappeared.

The person was facing away from her, talking to someone else.

Fu Ying stood still, staring blankly at the person’s back, she opened her mouth, but before she could speak, her eyes reddened first: "Brother, big brother."
