Chapter 714


    What!


    Emily looked up subconsciously and saw that the beam on the top roof was falling straight down.


    The steps under her feet also instantly became unstable and shepletely lost her footing, so she


    couldn''t help screaming with fear, "Ah!"


    It was like sitting on a roller coaster and swooping down, which made her feel extremely horrified.


    However, Simon had been holding her tightly in his arms all the time, which made her less scared.


    For a few seconds when they fell down quickly, he always covered her head with his big palm, and


    the sound of his heavy and rapid breathing lingered around her ears.


    After a burst of loud crash, it finally quieted down.


    They should have fallen down between the first and second floors. It was dark in sight, and other


    smells could not be distinguished except for the dust.


    The thing that they were most worried about had happened!


    Fortunately, Simon made a quick response, so the beam fellter than them. Simon took the time to


    take self-protection measures and pulled her to hide in an iron rack in a corner of the wall.


    Because of the narrowness of the ce, neither of them dared move. She was still protected by him


    and curled up in his arms.


    Emily could feel his strong heartbeat beneath her palms. She asked in a trembling voice, "Honey,


    are we under the ruins..."


    "Hmm." Simon nodded.


    "Then what should we do?" Emily asked helplessly.


    Simon frowned and said in a low voice, "The survivors in the earthquake can be discovered. There


    is only one thing they can do."


    Emily spoke out a word, "Wait..."

    Indeed, under such circumstances, they couldn''t do anything but to hold on to hope for being


    rescued. It was just that the feeling of waiting passively was really not good.


    "Yes." Simon replied. Then he looked around in the darkness and said, "The building has copsed


    now. I don''t know how terrible the situation is. However, I know that we should wait for a few hours


    or a day at most. Someone watched us running in. If the rescue team knows that there are people


    still alive, they wille to save us in time!"


    "Really?" Emily pursed the corners of her mouth in a panic.


    "Well, don''t worry!" Simon held her tightly.


    In such a darkness with no trace of light, they could only rely on each other. Emily suddenly


    remembered the martial arts drama that she loved to watch when she was a child. There was a


    scene that a handsome man and a beautiful woman fell into a well together. At that time, she and


    Anthea were fascinated by the romantic love and the handsome man''s infatuation.


    When she realized that she was still thinking about the scenes in the drama at this time, she could


    not help feeling that she was too optimistic.


    She shook her head andughed. Then she couldn''t help saying jokingly, "Hoeny, if they can''t find


    us or miss the best time to rescue us, are we a faithful couple who died together?"


    After saying that, she raised her head subconsciously.


    Even though it was in the darkness, it was as if she could see his handsome facial features.


    Her forehead was next to his Adam''s apple, so she could feel that he smiled in a very low voice and


    seemed to be in a good mood.


    Emily frowned in bewilderment. She didn''t understand why he was in such a good mood. After all,


    they were under the ruins!


    Just as she was about to ask him, she heard him saying suddenly, "Silly girl!"


    Emily curled her lips unhappily. In fact, when she found him, she could tell that he had returned to


    this building from outside. She retorted with disapproval. "Don''t me me. Aren''t you also silly


    enough to run back!"


    As soon as she finished her words, they both became silent at the same time.


    Emily came in to look for him regardless of the danger, while Simon came back again after he had


    already gone out. Both of them seemed to be silly.


    Emily was moved with tears in her eyes.


    In the darkness, they stared at each other. For a moment, only the sound of breathing could be


    heard. A momentter, Simon said in a low and deep voice, "Mrs. Chin, do you regret it?"


    Emily was stunned.


    It was not because he had asked this question, but for the address.


    She hadn''t heard it for a long time. Since their rtionship became estranged, he hadn''t used the


    address for three and a half years. Now the sound was still lingering around her ears and her heart


    was beating faster and faster. She quietly put her hand on her chest.


    In order to hide her unnaturalness, Emily shrugged deliberately. "It''s meaningless to regret it. We


    have been trapped here."


    "You regret it?" Simon''s eyes immediately narrowed.


    Feeling that her shoulders were almost crushed by him, she frowned because of the pain, but


    honestly said, "In fact, I don''t regret it..."


    As the strength of the big hands decreased, Emily heard him snort with satisfaction.


    In the following time, the two didn''t spoke in order to preserve their physical strength. There was


    only the sound of heartbeat and breathing. Time passed, and the process of waiting for help was a


    kind of torment for them.


    Emily could not help but ask in a low voice, "Simon, do you think we''ll be saved?"


    It wasn''t that she was pessimistic. They were in a disaster area after all, so a small-level aftershock


    would cause more serious copse, which made the rescue more difficult.


    Simon''s Adam''s apple moved slightly. After two seconds of silence, he said slowly in a low voice, "If


    we can be rescued this time, give birth to a baby for me after we return to Ice city!"


    In fact, with careful listening, she could feel a little shyness and hope in his voice.


    Emily swallowed her saliva with a surprised expression.


    It was not the first time for them to mention having a baby. Although she had taken longterm


    contraceptives, she had not taken them for three and a half years, because he wore condoms every


    time and he had never expressed his thoughts frankly like this.


    Emily bit her lip and carefully asked, "Simon, do you want a child?"


    "Hmm." Simon''s lips curled up. He seemed to be afraid that she couldn''t hear clearly, so he even


    added. "Yes. I said that I preferred having a daughter."


    Hearing hisst remark, Emily couldn''t help rolling her eyes. "You are a doctor. You should know


    that it''s impossible to determine the gender pf a baby. Do you think you can have a daughter as you


    wish?"


    Simon frowned and said with a bit of stubbornness, "I still prefer having a daughter."


    It was said that the daughter was the lover of her father in thest life. It seemed that it was true. He


    had an obsession in his heart. If they could have a child, he really hoped to have a daughter,


    especially a girl as lively and cute as I!


    Emily''s heart was touched.


    After a long while, she shyly bit the lip and said in a low voice,"... Okay!"
