67 Getting Together and Awakening
“Susu! Susu!”
A worried voice kept on ringing in her ears, calling out to her in her dreams.
Tang Susu instinctively wanted to answer it. Her dry lips moved slightly, but she couldn’t make a sound.
“Her head’s burning. She has a fever! Do you have any water? Give her some. She’s a little dehydrated.”
Immediately after that, Tang Susu felt her head being lifted gently. Someone gently consoled her and fed her some water.
Tang Susu immediately felt refreshed, as if she was blessed with a drizzle after a long, dry season. She puckered her mouth eagerly, but she still wasn’t satisfied after just two sips.
“Be careful not to choke yourself. Don’t drink too much!”
She opened her heavy eyelids and looked at him with grief. “More… More water…”
Dozens of people surrounded her and their hearts almost melted away when they saw the girl’s eyes!
“Hurry! Give her more water!” Everyone became frantic, wishing they could magically conjure water out of thin air and give her some water.
Mrs. Tang fed her a few mouthfuls, but seeing that she was gobbling them up, she asked her to take a break first before continuing.
Tang Susu drank more than half of the bottle of water in one go and her thirst slowly quenched.
Mrs. Tang wet the tissue and carefully moistened her lips. “Stay down for a little longer. Don’t get up so quickly or you’ll get dizzy!”
Since there were so many people gathering here together and they were only on the second floor, everyone was confident of their situation and it would only benefit them if they take a rest first before setting off again.
Tang Mingqi found something for her to rest on at this time. It was neither soft nor hard, and the height was just right. Tang Susu shut her eyes comfortably.
Her eldest brother draped a thin blanket over her. The owner of this place left it behind and it was spotless because it had seen little use.
Everyone simply watched as the rest of the Tang family rolled the little girl into a cocoon made of clothing. They were amused but also secretly envious.
In this post-apocalyptic world, it was probably everyone’s wish to stay with their family together!
Tang Susu noticed their expressions and looked around. The people who were seen by her couldn’t help but straightened their backs and smiled at her.
Especially those soldiers. They looked at her with shock on their faces.
They didn’t understand why a girl with such poor health would come to save them.
Tang Susu returned a smile and said, “I’m fine. You should take care of your wound first.”
They didn’t know how to deal with this and were about to say that it was fine since it wouldn’t kill them.
However, the members of the Tang family opened their backpacks.
The abundance of supplies they had with them surprised the soldiers.
Not only were there weapons and medicine, there were even food and water!
They had eaten nothing for a very long time. The food and water were becoming very tempting for them but none of them said anything. They took the first aid kit gratefully and hurriedly looked away as they treated each other’s injuries.
Mrs. Tang noticed that the girl who spoke up for Susu was secretly salivating. She waved her hand and said, “Come here, child!”
The girl, whose face was covered in dirt, walked over hesitantly. “Ma’am?”
“These are for you!” Mrs. Tang gave her food and water and patted her head affectionately. “This is a child that cared!”
After hearing what she had done, Tang Susu looked at the girl earnestly. She was not only thoughtful but also very sharp.
She reminded her of her past self, as she was an orphan too and had no one to rely on. She had to become matured at a young age.
“We’ll help you find your mother later, okay?” Tang Susu would not be stingy to help those who had shown her kindness.
The girl didn’t know what to do after she received food and water. But when she heard that, her expression brightened up. “Really?!”
The members of the Tang family smiled and nodded at her.
They didn’t intentionally lower their voices when they talked, so the other rescuers became restless when they heard it.
They had asked the soldiers about the survivors on the tenth floor and found out that none of their relatives were up there, so they came back down.
They were secretly hoping that if they had helped them, they might help them find their family in return…
When the seven soldiers heard their requests, they agreed without a second thought.
They had already saved the ungrateful. The family of those who saved them was in need of help and they wouldn’t stand idly by.
