Thirty meters under the ground,
Luo Mengmeng, who had lost consciousness, gradually came to.
When she opened her eyes and saw nothing but darkness before her, a huge wave of fear instantly surged inside her.
Or had she gone blind?
And why did she feel a bit suffocated?
It wasn’t until several minutes of terror passed that Mengmeng realized there had been an earthquake, and she seemed to have fallen underground.
No wonder she felt panicked and short of breath.
When the realization hit her, Mengmeng almost fainted again.
But since she had already been unconscious for quite a while, even if she wanted to faint, she couldn’t.
The thought of being trapped underground and possibly not living much longer deeply saddened the young girl. Yet, when she considered she had not yet married Gu Zhihan, nor had she given birth to his children—the biggest wishes of her life unfulfilled—how could she just die !
In this way, Mengmeng’s will to survive finally kicked in.
She gritted her teeth and began by moving her limbs.
Good, her limbs were not injured.
Then she moved her head.
Her head wasn’t injured either.
Her butt hurt a little.
But that shouldn’t be a big deal.
After checking her body, Mengmeng let out a sigh of relief.
Even though the environment was terrible, at least she wasn’t injured.
That was a small piece of good fortune in an otherwise unfortunate situation.
Mengmeng then tried to move and extended her small hands to feel around in the darkness.
She remembered that when she had fallen, her suitcase, which had been placed beside her bed, seemed to have been dragged down with her. She wondered if it was here now.
Her suitcase was filled with snacks and water; if she could find it, she would probably be able to survive for ten days or even half a month.
However, after a long search, she couldn’t find her suitcase. Instead...
She found her cellphone!
"A phone! That’s great!" Mengmeng’s spirits lifted instantly, but when she checked, there was no signal.
Mengmeng’s emotions plummeted again like a roller coaster.
A cellphone without signal was utterly useless!
Then she thought about it again—the phone could serve as a flashlight. Mengmeng cheered up once more and quickly turned on the flashlight.
The beam of light immediately illuminated the entire underground space.
It was then that Mengmeng realized the reason she hadn’t been crushed to death was because two huge rocks had wedged against one another, and she was right below them.
The space was extremely small, less than one square meter in size.
In the darkness, Mengmeng couldn’t help but hold her chin in her hand and sigh, then she lifted her phone to continue searching for her suitcase around her.
Regardless, at least she was still alive, and she had to keep going. With any luck, rescue workers might discover her soon!
Fortunately, perseverance paid off, and Mengmeng finally found her suitcase.
Only now, it was being crushed by a pile of rocks.
Seeing this, Mengmeng put down her phone, rubbed her hands together, and then, with all her might, tried to pull out her suitcase.
Believe that you are the strongest!
Mengmeng hummed a tune she made up on the spot while clenching her teeth and pulling at her suitcase.
After an excruciating hour, Mengmeng, exhausted, finally managed to pull out the suitcase.
Although it was dented, the snacks and water inside were still intact.
"At least it wasn’t for nothing," Mengmeng thought with relief and grabbed a bag of instant noodles to devour hungrily.
Heaven knows she was nearly starved...
