Chapter 710
Emily tried calling him many times in a row, but she didn''t get any answer.
There were several TV sets in each department, and they usually disyed different TV programs.
At this time, the news about the earthquake was disyed on each screen. The number of deaths
was constantly rising. Those shocking scenes made her even more uneasy.
"s, natural disaster is cruel!"
"That''s right. In the face of such a natural disaster, human beings are too insignificant! I heard that
this aftershock had increased the number of deaths. There were also many soldiers and doctors
buried there!"
Hearing the discussion of her colleagues, Emily was more anxious and worried.
When Tina, who returned from the broadcast room, saw that Emily was still sitting in front of the
desk, she asked in surprise, "Emily, it''s time to get off work. Why haven''t you left yet?"
Emily licked her lips and said, "I''m about to leave..."
"Let''s go together!" Tina returned to her seat and picked up her backpack. When she saw that Emily
was still sitting on the chair, she shouted. "Emily?"
As soon as she shouted, Emily suddenly stood up and rushed to the office of the chiefin-editor. Tina
quickly reached out but didn''t stop her.
The door of the individual office was pushed open hard, and the ss around it was shaking.
The chief-in-editor who was drinking tea was sacred by her. With his sparse hair raised up, he
red at her and said angrily, "Emily! You have started to teach interns. Why are you still so rude
and obtrusive? Can you be more sedate?"
Regardless of his scolding, Emily came straight to the point and said, "Editor, I want to go to the
disaster area!"
"You want to go to the disaster area?" The chief-in-editor was surprised.
"Yes!" Emily nodded heavily, trying to find an excuse to persuade him. "Editor, now the whole
country is paying attention to the earthquake, and the local TV stations are reporting it one after
another. If I go to the front line, I can contribute to reporting the situation in depth!"
Hearing this, the editor pondered for a moment and said, "The report from the disaster area is really
enough. The superiors also asked me to send some people to the disaster area, but I have already
thought of a good choice! It''s not easy to interview in the disaster area. I think that a male reporter
with better physical strength is more appropriate. You''d better stay on the station to deal with other
news!"
He told the truth objectively, because the conditions and environment of the disaster areas were
rtively tough,pletely different from the usual news scene. At this time, the advantage of men
stood out.
Emily pursed up her mouth and said with stubbornness in her eyes. "But what if I have to go?"
The chief- in- editor scolded. "Don''t you understand what I just said?"
Emily gritted her teeth. It seemed that she had made up her mind. "If you don''t agree, then I''ll...
resign!"
"Emily!" The chief-in-editor pounded on the table angrily. He red at her and said, "Now your are
so bold. After doing a few key interviews, you be so arrogant. How dare you threaten me with
the resignation!

Since you said you must go, give me an exnation!"
Emily took a deep breath and said slowly, "My husband is there!"
The chief-in-editor was stunned and sat back in his chair. After a few seconds of thinking, he said,
"I''ll arrange for you toe with the rescue charter tonight. You''ll have to prepare food and water
for yourself when you arrive. Don''t cause any trouble for the people in the disaster area!"
"Thank you, editor!" Emily was very excited.
After returning home from the TV station, she began to pack her luggage at the fastest speed. It
was neither a usual business trip nor a travel, so she only took a mountaineering bag. Besides the
devices used for interviews, she packed some clean clothes and lots of instant noodles.
At 10 o''clock in the evening, Emily boarded the flight to Yany State.
Derky County did not have an airport, and most of the winding roads have not been dredged after
the earthquake. What was worse, there was still a long distance for people to walk over the
mountains. After many twists and turns, Emily finally arrived at the disaster area at noon the next
day.
Emily came to such a scene for the first time. She was so shocked and even more sad.
The crowd was full of running firemen and soldiers, and even more conspicuous medical workers.
Many of the rescued people were crying with pain, but most of them were crying fortheir deceased
families in the ruins.
After looking around for a long time, she finally found the familiar figure that she missed so much.
She was suddenly relieved.
He was fine!
Simon was wearing a white gown, leaning over to wrap up the wound of the young firefighter
attending the rescue. The white gown on his body had been dirty, and the hem of the gown was
stained with a lot of mud. In such an environment, he still looked very handsome.
It seemed that Simon had sensed her existence, he suddenly stood up and turned around.
His eyes looked straight at her, and a hint of surprise shed through his eyes. He didn''t expect that
she would appear at the disaster area. After bandaging up, he strode to the front of her through the
crowd.
From time to time, people ran by them and it was very noisy around. Emily opened her mouth and
asked a little stupidly, "Simon, why can''t I get through to your phone?"
"A lot ofmunication towers are still under repair. There''s no signal!" Simon pointed at several
copsedmunication towers. When he arrived, he realized that his cell phone was useless.
"Oh!" Emily said in a low voice. Then she shrugged and said, "I went to the hospital yesterday to
meet Selena. Her arm was fine. She was discharged from the hospital after the arm was fixed with
nk. She told me that you came here for rescue!"
Simon''s eyes narrowed. "Then why did youe?"
With her eyelids lowered, Emily didn''t see the look of expectation in his eyes. She just awkwardly
exined with the device in her hand. "The people of the station are not enough here. I am sent to
help with the interview!"
Simon snorted and didn''t say anything. A nurse next to him came to call him, and he quickly said to
her, "I need to treat a patient!"
After Emily nodded, she saw him turn around and stride away.
A lot of tents were built on the scene of the
disaster area. There were temporary reporter stations. She found the other colleagues sent by the
station. After putting down her backpack, she carried the device and make interviews with them in
order to report the situation of the disaster area as soon as possible.
Looking at the people who were doing their best to rescue through the camera, Emily couldn''t help
turning her head to look in the direction of the medical team, where she saw the familiar figure.
She trudged across mountains and rivers just to confirm his safety with her own eyes.
