Chapter 185 A World of Cultural Discontinuity (7)
What are they doing here?
"Maybe they wanted to come because they saw we were helping them."
"I'll go check it out!" Zhao Dalong ran off to inquire about the situation and returned shortly afterward.
"Boss, they really did come to help."
"Come on, there's strength in numbers!"
In this way, those who were rescued and were unharmed began to consciously devote themselves to the rescue work. With the help of people from other places who came to participate in the rescue, as well as professional rescue teams, the people buried underground were rescued as quickly as possible.
When the final casualty count was tallied, the total population of Anju was a staggering 30 million, but the death toll was only 800. When the identities of these 800 people were finally verified, it was discovered that several of them were actually wanted fugitives.
Finally, perhaps out of boredom, someone delved into the life stories of these more than eight hundred people who died and discovered a shocking fact: apart from one person who was killed by a falling hammer at the construction site, the others all had more or less dirty hands.
The blogger posted what he had investigated online, causing a huge uproar. This earthquake was also called the earthquake of justice.
After that, the people of Anzhou suddenly began to believe in the theory of cause and effect, and for a time, the appearance of Anzhou improved a lot.
At the same time, Wangyou's new song "The Lone Warrior" was released, and another wooden carving appeared on Wangyou's table.
The last line of this song is truly amazing: Who says only those standing in the light are heroes? Everyone who participated in the rescue efforts after the Anju earthquake is a hero!
[This song is dedicated to the hat-wearing uncles who fell from the sky!]
Salute to the heroes!
……
This song also spread like wildfire across the country. Moreover, instead of finding a professional singer, Wang You sang it herself once but felt it lacked power, so she simply asked her classmates from the international class to record it together.
Therefore, the performers became all the international students in the junior and senior high schools of Anzhou City.
"The song became a hit, and the students in the international class became famous too."
"Boss, this is the yogurt I brought you. I have all kinds of flavors. I'll buy you all your yogurt from now on!" Liu Yiyi, a yogurt tycoon, said generously.
"Boss, here's some snacks for you. I'll take care of all your snacks from now on!" This was Wang Wan'er, the eldest daughter of the Wang family, who ran an import and export business specializing in snacks.
“Boss, these are three houses: a villa, a large apartment, and a storefront. They all belong to you, and they're in the best locations.” This was Luo Tianxiang, the son of a real estate tycoon.
"Boss, I'll take care of your breakfast from now on, and I promise it won't be the same every day." This is Song Qian, the daughter of Chef Song of the private restaurant.
"Boss, I'll cover your lunch from now on."
"Boss, I'll take care of your dinner from now on."
"Boss, I'll take care of your clothes from now on. I guarantee you'll have a different outfit for each season, and I'll try to wear a different outfit every day."
……
"Stop!" Wangyou gestured for a halt. "Is it really that serious?"
"Of course there are! We're actually getting a good deal!" The students were very enthusiastic. Wangyou thought about the lack of entertainment in this world and decided to accept it. After all, she had saved their lives, so she felt no guilt about accepting it. Besides, these families didn't lack these things.
It's definitely more comfortable to have a world where things go back and forth. What bad intentions could the students in the international class possibly have? They're just a little willful!
Of course, Wangyou also knows that you can't judge a book by its cover, and not all international students in schools are the same as those in Anzhou. There are definitely plenty of bullies and disruptives to public order in other places.
After the school was rebuilt, Wangyou's life returned to normal. Every day, she went to school, slept, checked in, and went home—it was incredibly routine.
When Wangyou returned home, there was hardly anyone there. Before, her brother would keep her company, but now only the nanny robot remained. However, Wangyou didn't really want to spend so much time with a robot, so she hired a maid and a housekeeper so that at least there would be some life in the house when she came home each day.
"Boss, let me take you home."
"No need, I'm going to the hospital to see my mother and bring her some food."
"Then I'll go with you, boss, and visit your aunt while we're at it." Several tall, burly boys rushed to the nearby supermarket to buy things, while the girls stayed with Wangyou to prevent her from running off.
Before long, the group had amassed quite a collection of spoils, including milk, bread, and nutritional supplements. Seeing the happy smiles on their faces, Wangyou naturally let them join in.
Seven or eight people carrying things came directly to the First Military Region Hospital. "Nurse, I'm looking for my mother. My mother is Fu Xue."
"You're looking for Director Fu? Director Fu just went to make her rounds. I'll take you to Director Fu's office." The nurse kindly led the group to Fu Xue's office.
"Nurse, you go ahead and do your work. We'll wait here," Wangyou said with a smile to the enthusiastic nurse.
"Yes, nurse, we can stay here by ourselves."
"You must be the international students who sang 'The Lone Warrior'!" The nurse, reluctant to leave, said happily, looking at the group of incredibly good-looking students.
"Yes, nurse, go ahead and get busy!" The smiles on their faces were barely contained, but they all knew that Wangyou didn't really like crowds and social niceties, so they coaxed and tricked the nurse out of the room.
"Phew, the nurses are so enthusiastic, I can't handle it!"
"Alright, Wang Wan'er, I see you're quite comfortable with coaxing her!" Everyone laughed for a while, but didn't dare to make too much noise.
"It's just a kidney. Nannan can be fine without a kidney, but Yu'er will die if she doesn't have one!"
"Your daughter hasn't fully recovered yet, and you still want her to donate a kidney? Are you even human? She's your own daughter!"
A slightly familiar voice came from the doorway. Wangyou couldn't help but run to the door to listen. The more she listened, the more familiar it sounded. Wasn't that the madman from the earthquake site?
"Is this man sick?"
"This woman is something else, why doesn't she just divorce her husband?"
Several students eavesdropping couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
Wangyou opened the door and went out. Seeing that it was indeed someone she knew, she asked, "Do you two have some serious illness?"
Seeing one person crying and begging while the other thought that harvesting a kidney was a normal thing, Wangyou felt speechless. The most pitiful one was probably the child.
"It's you! It's you who got me fired from the hospital!" Qin Shaoan saw Wangyou as if they were old enemies, his eyes blazing with hatred.
"A person like you being a doctor? That's irresponsible towards patients. This is a military hospital, and you actually want to take a young girl's kidney? Do you think the law is your private property?!" Wangyou kicked the madman who rushed at her.
The woman glanced at Qin Shaoan, her eyes filled with hatred. "Qin Shaoan, there's no way I'll let Nannan donate a kidney to your mistress's daughter. Forget about it. And I'll divorce you!"
"Holy crap, this man has completely shattered all moral standards! Auntie, my family are all lawyers, we'll make sure he's bankrupt!" Yan Hui saw the woman from the Wangyou Gang and figured that the people her boss was helping couldn't be bad people, so she naturally spoke up.
"Yes, the Yan family's lawyer is quite famous, so we're not afraid he won't get a divorce!" other students chimed in, eager for a good show.
