Qi Yantang rarely dreams, but he knows that he is dreaming now.

In the dream, there was a man standing in front of him with a long sword in silver armor and a cold face. He pulled out the long sword at his waist and swung it down, his voice was cold and decisive:

"kill him."

When the words fell to the ground, Qi Yantang heard the blunt sound of Han Feng's skin being ripped open, something warm splashed on his face, he unconsciously raised his hand to wipe it off, his hand was stained with scarlet, and then he heard the man's deep and tender voice:

"Yantang..."

The man in the battle armor was indifferent, his body was as straight as an eternal rock, and his face was covered with a daunting ruthlessness. Qi Yantang was horrified to find that the face was exactly the same as his own, so he turned around inch by inch—when he saw a pair of sad The eyes, which grew on Gu Lique's face, were stained with blood and a bleak beauty that could not be washed away by time.

Qi Yantang stared wide-eyed, unable to utter a single word as if his throat was stuck in lead...

"Don't kill me." The man choked on his sobs, and blood gushed out from between his lips, endlessly.

Hot liquid fell out of the eye sockets, Qi Yantang panted deeply, and suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were completely dark.

The hand was close to the warm and flexible skin, Gu Lique's long and soft breath was close to the ear, Qi Yantang's heart beat like a drum but remained motionless, he didn't want to wake him up.

Not wanting to wrap an arm around his neck the next moment, Gu Lique's vague comfort sounded:

"Having a nightmare?" He grabbed his head and pressed it to himself, smacked his lips and patted it, comforting him:

"I'm here."

Qi Yantang opened his eyes, held his arm tightly, and then hugged him tightly, with a hoarse voice:

"Did I wake you up?"

Gu Lique grinned:

"No, but I know you're having nightmares."

"How do you know?" The colic in the dream gradually dissipated, Qi Yantang smiled lazily, kissing his earlobe and asked.

"... Well, I just know." Gu Lique patted the back of his head, motioned him to calm down, and then fell asleep in a daze.

--------

The peace and joy of the first day of the new year was shattered by a sudden earthquake in the south.

The whole country was stunned by this news. The ice disaster in the south was already enough, but this happened again during the Chinese New Year. How many people should die... Some people were panicked for a while.

Qi Jianyi knocked on the door of Gu Lique's apartment early in the morning. His face was full of solemnity. After Gu Lique opened the door, he didn't have time to say hello, so he hurriedly said to Qi Yantang:

"The two of us have to board the plane quickly and go to Wan County. The plane is already parked at the airport and waiting."

Before Qi Yantang made a sound, Gu Lique turned pale first. Wan County is near the epicenter and one of the hardest hit areas. Where is Qi Yantang going now?Gu Lique's palms were sweating, he couldn't even care about the hangover headache for a moment, he grabbed Qi Yantang's hand, and said in a panic:

"I'll go as well."

Qi Yantang frowned, and blurted out his rejection:

"No."

Gu Lique pursed his lips tightly, without saying a word, picked up Qi Yantang and his coat without saying a word, Qi Yantang stretched out his hands to hold him down, only to find that his hands were trembling uncontrollably, and he was stunned for a moment. One soft:

"You can't go. You still have a bunch of announcements after the year. You must show up to express your opinion about this disaster relief. It's not a good idea to rush to the disaster area. I'll be fine..." Qi Yantang said kindly comfort.

Gu Lique raised his head with a swipe, his eyes flushed, and said angrily:

"There's an earthquake there! Who's controlling what? You can hide a stone, so how about ten or a hundred yuan? How many mountains are collapsing together? Why do you..." Qi Yantang hugged Hold him and whisper in his ear:

"With you, just because you are waiting for me here, I will not let anything happen to me no matter what."

Gu Lique's voice was hoarse, and his lips were trembling—he couldn't tell him not to be so irresponsible. This was the first time he showed his face in front of the public, and he was not qualified to bear the responsibility of the royal family to appease the public. reject.But there is nothing he can do if he smiles and sends him away, he closes his eyes in pain, and groans:

"Let me go, it's fine to pretend to be the accompanying person..." He was really afraid, worried that Qi Yantang would get hurt somewhere he couldn't see or worse, make some fucking announcement, those are not important.

"Li Que, you can't go." Qi Jianyi patted Qi Yantang's shoulder, smiled bitterly and said to Gu Lique:

"Because the place you are going to is dangerous, the plane is specially made, and the personnel are limited. There are no extra places..." He sighed, and then looked at him:

"I promise, as long as I'm here, nothing will happen to Yantang."

Qi Yantang took a deep look at him, didn't speak, then turned back and stroked Gu Lique's eyebrows and eyes over and over again, and raised the corners of his mouth:

"You forget who dragged you up from the cliff at that time. A special soldier can't compare to me. Besides, my main mission is not disaster relief, right? I won't go to places that are too dangerous."

Gu Lique nodded stiffly... but... who knows when the time comes?

He didn't know how he looked at the plane he got on, and he didn't know how he got back into the house. His face was terrible, his eyes were empty and lifeless, and this is what Wen Bin came to see—but there was no need to deliberately Pretending to be sad to cater to the public, Wen Bin thought happily.

"You have been invited to the disaster relief meeting in the afternoon, so hurry up and tidy up." Wen Bin said softly.Nanhua has always reacted quickly to disasters, not to mention any disturbance in the entertainment industry can cause waves.

Gu Lique raised his head blankly, realized what he heard, took a breath, wiped his face, smiled, and nodded.

"I heard that Young Master Qi and Second Young Master flew to the disaster area." Wen Bin asked casually.

Gu Lique nodded sullenly, then forced a smile:

"He said he'd be fine."

Wen Bin lowered his eyes and hummed:

"He'll be fine."

Gu Lique nodded silently, looking through the car window, he suddenly thought of whether Qi Yantang's nightmare last night foreshadowed something... the corner of his mouth twitched self-deprecatingly, he should ask him what he dreamed of of.

--------

This earthquake is different from any previous ones. It is not that Nanhua has experienced earthquakes, but it is normal for a large earthquake to be followed by a series of small earthquakes.But this time the earthquake seemed to be concurrent. An hour after the two cousins ​​of Qi Yan landed, another earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 erupted in Wan County. If it weren't for the empty location of the airport, they might be under the rubble now.

Looking at each other, the other party's eyes are filled with lingering fear and doubts.This place is a relatively safe place specially estimated by the National Earthquake Administration. Even if there is the threat of aftershocks, the magnitude of the earthquake will not be so high. They looked at the big crack five meters away from their feet in horror, and they went to The ferocious smile that cracked the ground.

------

Gu Lique's mind went blank when he heard that there was another big earthquake in Wan County, and then he went out of the venue like crazy, and kept calling Qi Yantang, his hands were trembling, until Qi Yantang's intermittent voice came from the receiver. The moment it came out, Gu Lique broke down and cried:

"Yantang! Yantang, are you okay, are you okay!" He tried his best to suppress the choking in his voice, and he didn't have time to control the tears that kept oozing from his eyes.

"I heard that there was another earthquake in Wan County, are you going to move?" Gu Lique swallowed, holding back the sobs in his throat with air pressure.

"We're fine, we're with the troops, don't you worry... Li Que... Li" the line broke.

Gu Lique was startled, he called back again and again, but couldn't get through, sweating anxiously, stomping his feet, biting his fingers and walking up and down the narrow aisle outside the venue, pulling his Hair, cursed in a low voice and hit it again—it was still a busy tone, and a sense of powerlessness hit my heart.

Someone patted his shoulder lightly, and he turned his head unconsciously. Wen Bin looked at him with a frown, and asked with a sigh:

"what happened?"

"He, he's in Wan County." Gu Lique's voice trembled slightly, and then he held the cross on his chest, which was given to him by his mother on his birthday, a cross that had been baptized by a priest.He didn't really believe in these things at first, but now he repents for his previous impiety, and he doesn't know if it is useful to hold Buddha's feet temporarily, and he doesn't know which god to believe in to keep Qi Yantang safe.

Wen Bin's expression froze, and just as he was about to comfort him, his eyes suddenly tightened, and he stared towards the end of the aisle:

"Who?"

Two girls with kt boards moved out, cringing a little under Wen Bin's vigilant gaze, but looked at Gu Lique longingly, but were stunned when they found his red eye sockets and bad complexion.

"I, we..." The girls' tongues were tied.This is a charity banquet, and the celebrities and rich people donate generously, or call on the public to raise donations.But the fans are also very realistic, digging out their pockets with the intention of watching idols, feeling guilty about their impure thoughts, and at the same time feel at ease, because they responded to the idol's call, and it shouldn't be too much to ask for some benefits by the way.

Looking at the poster photos they were holding in their hands and the plastic boards at their feet, Gu Lique understood, turned sideways slightly, cleared his throat, rubbed his eyes, and tried to force a normal smile... .But he failed. As soon as the muscles on his face were stretched, the sore eye sockets couldn't stop the tears from overflowing. He wiped his eyes in embarrassment and cursed secretly, and smiled apologetically:

"I'm sorry...do you want an autograph? Bring it here... I'm sorry, I'm not in a good state today, can I change it?" He wiped the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand, trying to make himself smile more easily. ...but Qi Yantang doesn't know whether he is alive or dead now, he almost collapsed.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, no, no, no need!" The fans were terrified by his appearance, blushed and shook their heads repeatedly, brushed away the pen and photo, and almost cried together with Gu Lique.

Gu Lique was taken aback for a moment, then smiled dimly, nodded and did not speak.

"No, what we actually want..." The girls were so anxious that they didn't know what they were talking about. They paused and one of the girls said:

"...Is there any family member in the disaster area?" The girl next to her stepped on her right after she finished speaking. She felt that she had slipped her tongue and bit her lip.

The muscles at the corners of Gu Lique's mouth twitched, and he forced a smile and said:

"My... my lover...he is in Wan County..." After finishing speaking, he was almost on the verge of tears again.

There was a sudden suffocation in the aisle, and the eyes of several girls turned red, and a sudden sense of guilt swept over their bodies. They had no relatives and friends in the south, and they were separated by thousands of miles. Those who grieve empathize with each other, express their sadness appropriately, and live as usual.

But at this moment, that irrelevant mentality turned into a strong guilt and condemned himself. The girls lowered their heads, not knowing what to say to comfort Gu Lique.

"It's okay...you don't have to worry about it..." Gu Lique smiled bitterly, and then heard the host calling his name, Wen Bin patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to hurry in here and deal with it, Gu Lique squeezed Looking at the phone, he nodded indiscriminately.

"Leave the address here. After a while, someone will send the signed photo to you. It's hard work for you to travel all the way here."

The girls hesitated, but finally shook their heads:

"It will be fine."

Wen Bin nodded with a smile.

The girls looked at each other, then raised their heads, summoned up their courage and said loudly to Wen Bin:

"Please tell me that no matter what happens, we are with him."

Wen Bin froze for a moment, then laughed:

"I must know."

------

The moment the call was cut off, the military vehicle that Qi Yantang was in shook violently, the signal was weak, he hurriedly changed the satellite phone, but the ground suddenly trembled hysterically again.

"Fuck!" Qi Yantang cursed while holding on to the armrest, and when the vibration subsided.

Frowning and looking at the broken satellite phone, he felt nervous for a while, not knowing how anxious Gu Lique would be.

"This earthquake is weird and powerful. Just now there was news from the Tianji Military Region that there was an earthquake in Tianji, magnitude 8.3." Qi Jianyi said to Qi Yantang with a serious face.

It's not like an earthquake, it's more like something underground hitting the surface, or like the Doguno card, someone pushed the first one, and then a chain reaction of earthquakes exploded in the southern land.No one knows where the next earthquake will occur. Surrounding the site of the first earthquake, there is no longer a single inch of good soil in the surrounding cities. There has been no news from the rescue team for two hours, and the rescue work is really difficult.

Whether the earthquake will spread to the north, everyone has a huge rock in their hearts, and whether the whole south will be shattered, this kind of thought almost makes everyone breathless.

The strange earthquake in the south spread throughout the country every hour. The citizens who were only sympathetic or had nothing to do with themselves were suddenly swept away by panic.Everyone stared at the TV in fear, chasing the first-hand reports.

"We have to bring people into the disaster area for rescue." Qi Yantang said in a deep voice, putting down the temporarily disabled mobile phone.

Qi Jianyi's eyes widened suddenly. They came to appease the victims, and leading the rescue team was not within the scope of their duties. What's more, the road leading to the earthquake area has been blocked due to the large earthquake and the continuous small earthquake that will erupt again. Stop it, Qi Yantang's statement is a joke about his own life.

"You promised Li Que." Qi Jianyi reminded.

Qi Yantang gave a wry smile, and subconsciously squeezed the black screen phone in his hand, as if he was feeling the temperature of Gu Lique.

"But now the rescue work has come to a standstill. Except for the army, the rest of the rescue force has retreated a bit. This weird situation has scared people..." He paused slightly and sighed:

"But if there is no rescue, let alone the survivors under the ruins in the earthquake zone, even if they are not buried, they will not be able to survive. We can save every one, and we must not let the people lose confidence in us." Qi Yantang looked at him, always The cold eyes can be said to be gentle now, but there is an indescribable force in them.

The Qi family, you can't let people down... He vaguely understood the reason why his grandfather asked Qi Yantang to come with him by name.

"I'm really afraid that Xiao Que Que will kill me with a kitchen knife when I go back."

"Then I promise not to help." Qi Yantang touched his nose, spread his hands and smiled.

"The dog has eaten your conscience, why don't you still help pass the knife?" Qi Jianyi scolded with a smile.

Qi Yantang shrugged and smiled, then turned his head and said to the reporters around him who were trying to protect the cameras:

"After reuniting with the rescue team, we will broadcast live. Can the equipment still work?"

The reporters were still in shock during the turbulence just now, and when they heard Qi Yantang's words, they nodded hastily as if they had found a backbone, and looking into his calm eyes, their hearts miraculously gradually settled down.

The rescue tent was set up in a large open space, but the rescue operation was stuck in a bottleneck.The members of the rescue team looked solemn and hurriedly bandaged the wounded who came back before, but they couldn't say a word to their begging and questioning eyes.The captain paused his actions, and the entire army that had been sent to the earthquake zone was wiped out. Although saving lives was the top priority, he couldn't make fun of the lives of his subordinates. He dropped the phone hard, cursed angrily, took a few breaths, and resigned to his fate to make another call—and finally connected.

The order given by the General Administration was vague, and it was a little different from the beginning. Later, they were asked to figure it out by themselves. This had never happened before. He was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes, but he still had to endure it. I asked in a low voice, but the line was broken again.

The captain put the phone down heavily and let out a sigh of relief. The anger in his heart caused panic, but he couldn't spread these emotions to the victims or team members—what should he do?He tore his hair in frustration, and then he heard a team member come in and tell him that the two royal princes had arrived.

------

Gu Lique had been fidgeting since the beginning of the banquet, and just now he rushed out regardless of what someone was talking on the stage, and the unknown stars around him all looked at him strangely.Gu Lique didn't care at all, the phone in his pocket suddenly started to vibrate, he picked it up as if it was on fire, made a random gesture and ran out, and started answering the phone without even looking at it:

"Hey, Yantang!" He said eagerly, his voice was hoarse, with inaudible sobs.

"......No." It was a slightly cold female voice, there was a trace of hesitation in the voice, but it dissipated immediately.

"Mom?" Gu Lique stood still, his expression froze for a moment.

There was a pause on the other end of the phone, and then the woman responded:

"Well.... I just had an earthquake here. I heard that Nanhua was also shaken. Are you okay?" Her tone was calm. If it weren't for the slightly hasty speaking speed, no one could capture her true mood.

"I, I'm fine." It wasn't Qi Yantang, Gu Lique leaned against the wall in a slumped manner, couldn't help covering his eyes with his hands, and bit his lower lip to answer his mother's question.

"What about you, is there something going on over there?" Gu Lique asked hoarsely.

"The manor can withstand a magnitude [-] earthquake, don't worry." She hesitated for a moment and asked again:

"What happened?"

He clenched his teeth tightly, but still let out a little cry in his mother's familiar voice:

"Yantang—my lover, he is in Wan County, in the earthquake area...I..." He suddenly choked up.

"Qi's family?" She had obviously heard the rumors, and she was worried that the little prince was playing with him, but she heard that Qi Yantang valued him very much, so she hesitated in her heart and did not intervene to ask him anything.

"Yes."

"He should go to fulfill his responsibility." His mother's comfort was a little pale.

Gu Lique gritted his teeth, of course he knew, but...

"Don't tell me you're crying." The woman's voice suddenly turned cold, Gu Lique was taken aback, and instinctively choked her neck to refute.

"That's good, don't cry like a big girl, and ask him to worry about you on the front line. If you want to help him, make yourself stronger." The woman's voice was cold.

Gu Lique was stunned for a long time, until the silence was too long, the woman on the other end of the phone finally softened her voice:

"Li Que... If you love each other, you have to support each other and take care of his rear. If he decides to go, don't let him have worries, and vice versa. If he is worthy of your love, you should also be worthy of his love." OK."

Gu Lique's lips trembled, and he slid down the wall slowly, covering his mouth and nodding, thinking that his mother couldn't hear him, so he replied in a hoarse voice:

"well.."

"Take care of yourself," the woman sighed.

"Mom...Thank you, I love you." Gu Lique swallowed tears, took a breath, and wiped away the remaining water marks at the corners of his eyes.

"I love you too." The woman replied in a low voice after a long silence, and then hung up the phone.

He knew, he always knew - Gu Lique stood up straight, his eyes were still red, but he stopped crying.
