Chapter 408: Chapter 434: Flood Resistance
These people braved the rain, walking ahead, checking each household in the village. Everyone was unwilling to
leave their homes. In shouses, the water was already over a foot deep, but families were hiding on rooftops
and still refused to leave.
A stubborn old man shouted, "A ruined his worth a fortune! We can’t leave, how could it just happen to
flood our hby chance!"
Gu Junming patiently explained, and when he couldn't get them to understand, he forcibly took them away.
The villagers were more concerned about their grain and livestock. In the homes of the young people, there were
valuable items like televisions and sewing machines. They wanted the soldiers to help take them. Their big
trucks seemed quite large.
Gu Junming was filled with anger, thinking, we're here to save your lives, not to move house! But he calmly said,
"Each family can only take one item. If everyone loads up, others won't be able to get on the truck. You decide
for yourself! Lives are at stake, hurry up! What's the use of having valuable stuff if you lose your life?"
Most people complied, but a few stubborn old folks refused to cout. A young soldier tried to drag them out,
getting scratches on his hands, but they refused to leave.
"You're bullying us, are you bandits? Why can’t | stay in my own house!"
Ssoldiers were pissed, thinking we're doing this for your own good, and yet we get cursed?
Gu Junming checked his watch, "These people must be taken! Tis of the essence!"
He personally got involved, lifting the old people up. These two stubborn ones were thrown into the truck, still
shouting, but no one paid them any mind.
Next, they helped move the sick and weak who couldn't move on their own to the truck and continued to the
next village. There were people on the truck crying and shouting, saying they would report to higher-ups.
"You bastards, they should strip you of your ranks!"
Gu Junming acted as if he hadn't heard a thing, remaining calm.
Yan Kai faced the schaos, but managed to get everyone out before the flood hit.
When the two met up that night, they saw each other's faces covered in wounds from scratches, and couldn't
help but laugh.
"Pretty chaotic over there too?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Absolutely, they're still complaining, someone even said they'd report to higher-ups to haveremoved." Gu
Junming laughed, utterly unconcerned.
Luckily they evacuated in time. Not long after they left, a massive flood submerged the village, and those
shouting villagers finally quieted down.
Yan Kai said, "Got anything to eat? Two days of eating dry buns is drivingcrazy."
"Got two bunches of noodles, packed by Sun Chan. Just add ssalt."
"Great!" Yan Kai happily went to get the noodles.
Just then, a flash of white light outside the tent was followed by rumbling thunder and the torrential rain poured
down. Yan Kai and Gu Junming exchanged a glance, both with a complex expression, worried that sof the
more peripheral farmland and homes might not hold up.
They were on high ground, but even at night, water seeped in as they slept. They laid a layer of plastic and
wooden boards to ward off dampness, yet still woke up to soaked bedding, and many soldiers had developed
rashes.
Gu Junming got up early to light the stove, letting everyone take turns drying themselves and their bedding, and
distributed sointment for the rashes.
These were previously suggested by Sun Chan. Gu Junming suddenly felt that his young wife had quite some
foresight.
At the thought of Sun Chan, the gloom and worry in his heart seemed to lessen. He was also worried that Sun
Chan might not be doing well.
The next day, while Sun Chan was eating at the school canteen, she saw pictures on the television in the hall,
showing several villages flooded. She was eating fried rice at the time, and her chopsticks trembled and fell to
the ground.
Gu Junming seemed to be carrying out a mission there, and seeing images of soldiers fighting the flood made
her heart leap into her throat. Fortunately, it was mentioned that villagers had been evacuated, with no
casualties, which finally brought her srelief.
Liu Enming, sitting not far away at another table behind her, walked over and said, "Don’t worry too much, the
state will have a plan, people are the priority."
Sun Chan nodded, but no matter how others reassured her, she couldn't feel at ease.
Wu Qiong, eating beside her, watched Sun Chan's worried expression and smirked to herself, thinking, I'm glad |
didn’t choose that soldier, | can’t bear such suffering! Better find a rich man to marry. But her dad refused to set
her up with Han Dong, which really annoyed her.
After eating, as Sun Chan walked out, Liu Enming caught up, "Wait for me."
"What's up?"
"You took your food tray with you," Liu Enming said with a laugh.
Sun Chan’s mind went blank; after eating, these were supposed to be left for the canteen to clean—did she just
beca thief?
"Sorry, | didn’t mean to." She quickly apologized.
Liu Enming took the tray, laughing, "What you should focus on now are your finals; it'll be trouble if you fail." He
nodded to Sun Chan and turned to leave.
Sun Chan sighed; how could she study right now? But she had no choice but to force herself to.
Gu Junming and the others were still

Yan Kai wasn’t any better; after a day of hauling sand, his back felt broken, making sleep impossible. He tossed
and turned, feeling itchy all over, his feet wrinkled and numb from soaking.
He took smedicine, rested on two planks of wood; the tent had a slit open, otherwise it would be too stuffy.
Staring at the pouring rain, he

and saw a fopd GH

Yan Kai quickly reacted, dashed out, and grabbed her, "What are you doing?"
"Ah!" the female soldier exclaimed, startled, "I’m a military reporter, taking photos for a report. Why not?"
Yan Kai frowned, "You're a distraction, don’t go forward, it's dangerous there. After taking photos, stay put. If
something happens, someone might have to save you. The soldiers here are already exhausted enough."
The female soldier pouted, clearly upset, "Are you saying I'm getting in the way?"
