As Gong Yi’s chances of survival decreased, the rescue team became more anxious throughout the rainy night.
However, the rain seemed to have a mind of its own, intensifying as if to oppose them.
Hua Mi stood in the rain, feeling waves of spasms in her lower abdomen, which were very uncomfortable.
Behind her, a lifeguard brought out several protective goggles from the tent and asked,
“Sister Hua, are these prepared for us?”
Hua Mi turned around and looked at the lifeguard holding the protective goggles that shimmered with multicolored light. She had been preoccupied with pulling out supplies and hadn’t noticed exactly what she had taken out.
At that moment, seeing the protective goggles in the lifeguard’s hand, she immediately nodded,
“Yes, these make things look quite clear.”
The lifeguard quickly put one on, no longer caring whether the goggles looked cool or not.
In such heavy rain and under such dark skies, goggles that could clear their line of sight were a significant and immense help to them.
Sometimes, it’s such an inconspicuous little thing that plays the most critical role at the most crucial moment.
In the thick of the night, the colorful light twinkled, and one by one, the lifeguards put on their goggles.
Eventually, everyone discovered that they could rescue people in the rain at night without even needing lighting lamps.
The protective goggles that Sister Hua had gotten were simply too effective.
By late night, the first batch of severely injured patients had been dug out, received initial treatment, and had been sent back to Xiang City by the lifeguards.
Gong Yi had still not been unearthed.
Hua Mi, covering her lower abdomen, sat in her tent and couldn’t help but pull up the control panel for “Apocalypse Supermarket.”
She stared at her remaining “Lucky Draw X8” and silently prayed:
If in her previous life, her luck had been bad for a lifetime, then this life should grant her a stroke of good fortune.
After praying, Hua Mi felt the spasms in her lower abdomen slowly subside. She closed her eyes and pressed “Lucky Draw X8.”

“Received Orange Tree growth speed X12, time-limited: 72 hours.”
“Received Newborn Onesies X100,000.”
“Received Nanny Car X10.”
“Received Garbage Recycling Station X1.”
“Received Universal Signal Connector X1,000,000.”
“Received Self-heating Mini Hot Pot (Dark Mustard Flavor) X1,000,000.”
“Received Folic Acid X1,000.”
“Received Xiao Chaihu Granules X100,000.”
This was all… Hua Mi went through the list item by item, grateful that her level 10 storage had been cleared quite a bit; otherwise, she couldn’t have fit all these miscellaneous items.
She was interested in the Universal Signal Connector, so she flipped her hand and took one out from the level 10 storage.
The Universal Signal Connector was like a small mobile phone stand, quite a compact device in the shape of a robotic cat.
It could be attached to the back of a phone case and could indeed be used as a phone stand.
Hua Mi affixed one to her phone and found that in this wild and remote area, where her phone signal had been weak, just one or two bars, it was now full strength.
On a whim, she used her phone to call Gong Yi.
After a burst of noise, the voice clearly connected.
“Hello? Hello? Gong Yi? Are you still alive?”
Hua Mi asked loudly, which was actually a redundant question—if the call had connected on Gong Yi’s end, how could he not be alive?
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, as if he himself couldn’t believe it. To think that in such an environment, surrounded by damp mud and rocks, his phone, having been submerged in the mud for more than ten hours, could still receive a call from Hua Mi.
Gong Yi chuckled, his voice deep and hoarse,
“Guess.”
“I guess you’re still alive.”
Hua Mi breathed a sigh of relief, her spasming lower abdomen also relaxing a bit, feeling much more comfortable.
“You guessed right.”
From inside the phone, Gong Yi’s laughter grew stronger, surrounded by a mound of muddy darkness.
Actually, his phone was out of power too, but Hua Mi’s voice just pierced through the broken vessel in his hand.
It was like a redemption in the darkness.
Unable to see the light, he could only hear the sound, which to him was a form of encouragement.
“Hold on, they’re so worried about you, working hard to save you. You have to hang in there, don’t you dare die, don’t close your eyes.”
“Mhm.”
Gong Yi responded, but what he didn’t say was that he actually wasn’t afraid of dying; what he was afraid of was dying hopelessly trapped.
But now his mood was much better since Hua Mi told him that he hadn’t been abandoned, that his guys were doing everything they could to dig him out.
And all he had to do was wait.
Hua Mi leaned against a pile of supplies, one arm cradling her small belly, the other holding a cellphone.
At this moment she also didn’t know what to say, it was enough to know that Gong Yi was still alive, but having finally gotten through to him, she didn’t really want to hang up the call.
So she asked again:
“Is it dark in there?”
“Dark.”
Gong Yi’s voice came through the phone, paused, then he asked back,
“You seem to care a lot about me?”
Hua Mi didn’t speak. In a moment like this, the atmosphere, the tone, the topic were all a bit dangerous.
But thinking about hanging up the call, she wasn’t sure if she could get through to Gong Yi again after.
Coincidentally, Gong Yi also didn’t want to hang up the call.
He showed an unusual leisure, asking:
“Actually, I’m quite curious, do you really not remember me, or are you pretending not to?”
“What?”
Hua Mi couldn’t understand where the grievance in the big boss’s words was coming from. She asked,
“I’ve always been curious too, where have we met before?”
“3302, remember now?”
On the other end of the phone, Gong Yi revealed a hint of grinding his teeth,
“Do you need me to make it any clearer?”
“3302?” What is that???
Hua Mi was even more confused. Her genuine confusion turned into infuriating annoyance for someone.
Because that damn room was the one she dragged him to!
On the other end of the phone, Gong Yi fell silent again for a moment, suddenly realizing that he seemed to have been played by this heartless woman!!!
What on earth did she take him for?
When she coaxed him into getting a room, it was all sweet talk.
Too hateful.
On Hua Mi’s side, she continued to rack her brain thinking, what is 3302?
A safe combination?
Some sort of secret code?
Unable to figure it out, she simply lay flat,
“Why don’t you just tell me straight, where have you seen me? Do I owe you money? If not, we’re good, but if I do, let’s call it even right now.”
Her nature was very straightforward because she remembered not owing anyone money in her past life, and if she did, the amount wouldn’t have been much.
A few hundred, a few dozen? In the face of natural disasters and calamities, she’d just deny it!
Suddenly, Hua Mi, as if enlightened, asked quite boldly,
“Are you saying I owe you 3302 yuan? Alright, alright, that amount is a bit much, I’ll sell you 10 boxes of Xiao Chaihu Granules to settle it.”
Gong Yi, stuck in the mud, was infuriated to the point of nearly spitting blood. He scoffed,
“That won’t settle it. Just you wait, once I get out, we’ll have a good talk.”
