The Engineering Boss

Chapter 686 Hongshan Earthquake

After seven o'clock in the afternoon, after dinner, Chen Yang accompanied Xu Mengyu for a walk in the community.

"Honey, I'll get up and get you what you want to eat tomorrow morning." Chen Yang said, "I haven't got you a meal for such a long time, I want to make up for it."

Xu Mengyu smiled and said: "Come on, just give me back your little cooking skills. I'm afraid Mom and the others will finish it when you get up."

It is true that every morning when I get up, my mother Tan Lin or the mother-in-law usually make breakfast. After all, Chen Yang’s father, Chen Fugui, and his father-in-law get up early, and they have to eat breakfast when they get up.

"They make their breakfast, I'll get up and make you something to eat." Chen Yang said, "I can tell Mom and the others first and tell them to make less."

"Forget it, don't bother." Xu Mengyu said, "Obviously it can be done in one meal, but I have to make two."

The two walked forward for a few minutes, and suddenly Chen Yang felt the ground shaking. At the same time, Xu Mengyu grabbed Chen Yang's arm, and Chen Yang immediately hugged Xu Mengyu's body.

It took seven or eight seconds for the ground under his feet to stop shaking, but Chen Yang and Xu Mengyu were still hugging each other tightly.

"It seemed like an earthquake just now?" Chen Yang said in a low voice.

"Yes, it should be an earthquake." Xu Mengyu said hastily, "The earthquake was so strong just now, I don't know where the earthquake happened."

At this moment, Chen Yang and Xu Mengyu saw people from the villa in the community rush out of the house quickly, and after a while, many people appeared on the road where they were standing.

Everyone was talking and guessing where the earthquake happened.

Soon someone checked it on their mobile phone and said, "It's an earthquake in Hongshan, and it's predicted to be a magnitude 7.5 earthquake."

The destructive power of a magnitude 7.5 earthquake is quite strong, no wonder there was such a strong shock just now.

And Hongshan is five to six hundred kilometers away from Changxi City. They all felt such a strong earthquake here, so I don't know what it will be like at the epicenter.

Fortunately, they only shook a bit here, and the housing construction was not affected much.

If it is close to the epicenter, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Let's go, let's go home!" After Chen Yang finished speaking, he helped Xu Mengyu walk towards his home.

And along the way, everyone was talking about it, and the daring ones had already returned to the house.

The timid stood in the open and waited.

Ten minutes later, Chen Yang and Xu Mengyu returned to the gate of their villa. At this moment, some family members were there at the gate, and they did not return to the villa.

"We also said we'd look for you, but we didn't know where you were walking. Meng Yu, were you okay when the earthquake shook you just now?" Chen Yang's mother, Tan Lin, asked hastily.

"Mom, I'm fine! Chen Yang was hugging me during the earthquake." Xu Mengyu said, "By the way, where is my dad?"

Xu's mother said: "After your father ran out, he said to look for you, but he didn't know where to look for you. If he couldn't find you, he should come back. I don't know if it's safe to rest in the house tonight?"

The earthquake shook everyone's hearts into panic, and they dared not go into the house to stay.

No one knows whether there will be an earthquake in the future, whether the earthquake will be strong or not, and whether the house will be shaken down.

So many people rushed back to the house with courage and took out the quilts, planning to rest outside tonight.

"For the sake of safety, we will rest here at the door tonight. I will go back to get my things. You are waiting for me here." Chen Yang thought for a while and said.

Mainly thinking that his wife is pregnant now, Chen Yang must ensure the safety of his wife Xu Mengyu, and cannot take that risk.

Seeing Chen Yang rushing back to the villa, Tan Lin confessed and followed Chen Yang.

Chen Yang just returned to his room and felt another shaking, but this time the shaking was not very strong, but it still made Chen Yang a little scared, he quickly wrapped the things on the bed into a ball and carried them outside.

When he was going downstairs, Chen Yang met his mother, who was walking out carrying some things on the bed.

"Son, did you shake again just now?" Mother Tan Lin asked.

"It seemed to shake a bit just now, but it wasn't that strong." Chen Yang said, "Mom, be careful."

Soon Chen Yang came to the entrance of the villa. He put the things on his shoulders on the ground and said: "Wife, wait a moment, I will go into the house and bring out a stool for you to sit on."

At this moment, Xu's father and father Chen Fugui also ran back. After seeing Chen Yang and the others moving some things out, they also joined the team that went in to move things out.

Half an hour later, Chen Yang, Chen Fugui, and Xu's father moved a lot of things out of the house, and they even moved out a small bed so that Xu Mengyu could have a good rest at night.

As for the food, several people also moved some out, in case of accidents.

After looking around, those neighbors basically moved some things out like their home, and they all planned to rest outside tonight.

"It has been reported online that the magnitude of the earthquake was confirmed to be 7.5, and the epicenter was near Zhonggou Village in Hongshan. The specific situation in Hongshan is not yet known." Xu Mengyu told everyone about the earthquake.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Mengyu continued: "At present, a rescue force has been organized to head towards Hongshan, but the road to Hongshan has been severely damaged, and there are still some difficulties in entering Hongshan's epicenter."

Chen Yang also took out his mobile phone to look at the news on the Internet. At present, there is very little earthquake information published on the Internet, and this is an earthquake that occurred near night.

At this time, Chen Yang saw a familiar figure passing by his house, and Chen Yang immediately shouted: "Mr. Zhou!"

Zhou Zongzheng was eating outside the gate of the community with his friends, but before he had eaten a few mouthfuls, the earthquake struck, so he put down the bowls and chopsticks and ran home.

"Hey, Mr. Chen!" Zhou Zong turned his head to see that it was Chen Yang, "Mr. Chen, does your family live here?"

"That's right!" Chen Yang said, "President Zhou, what is this?"

"I'm going home. I just had dinner with my friends outside the gate of the community. I didn't know there was an earthquake. Why don't you hurry home and take a look." Zhou Zong said, "We'll talk another day, I have to go back and take a look."

"Okay, Mr. Zhou, you pay attention to safety!"

After a while, Chen Fugui suddenly said: "Son, why don't you call your sister and ask her how things are going?"

The distance between Hongshan and Rongcheng is basically the same as the distance between them and Hongshan. Since the earthquake felt so strong here, the situation over there must be the same as here.

"Okay, I'll call and ask right away."

However, before Chen Yang dialed out the call, his cell phone rang.

"Brother, the 7.5-magnitude Hongshan earthquake felt strong at home. Are father, mother, and sister-in-law all right?" sister Chen Qin asked immediately.

"It shook a few times just now, but the shock is still a bit strong! How is your place?"
