Chapter 259: Stunned by Your Handsomeness

From then on, this performance was called the "God-tier Performance."

Guo Tianwang was for a time called the "King of Koi."

If not for his performance, who knows how many casualties there would have been in this major earthquake in Chuan Shi.

When asked why he chose to hold a concert in such a place, Guo Tianwang only replied that it was fate.

In fact, he did not know who the person behind the scenes was either; regardless, the performance his agent booked for him paid more than those in big cities.

Very soon, relief supplies were transported in from all over the country.

After the aftershocks ended, that same night, the soldiers took the lead in starting the rescue, and Jiang Cheng and Xu Jie also joined the ranks.

And after basic communications were restored, Si Rong was the first to call home to report that she was safe.

"Mom, please come back soon!" Jiang Siyu said with a sobbing tone on the other end, "Brother and I both miss you!"

Seeing the news, they had been scared to death at home.

"There is no danger here now; there are many people injured, and Mom and Dad have to stay to help."

She also called her mother; her mother's worry seemed to be able to travel through the phone line to her side, and Si Rong's voice choked up.

In the end, she only urged her, "Stay safe, Mom is at home waiting for you to come back."

Si Rong then reported she was safe to her two brothers and Ming Zi, and was just about to turn off her phone when she saw that Wan Fang had called.

She was a little surprised.

"Sister Fang, everything is fine here."

"Mm, good."

Wan Fang said that she was very worried after seeing the news and was preparing to donate one million in supplies on behalf of the company.

With the restoration of communications, the figures of the four people running about before the earthquake in the county's surveillance footage were also discovered by reporters.

Every piece of their personal information was dug up completely.

For a time, everyone's focus was centered on Liu Ruxue.

Because she was a staff member at the Earthquake Research Institute.

"I knew it, it must be that Liu Ruxue predicted the earthquake in advance, which is why she planned this performance and saved so many of us."

"I think the country should build a monument and write a biography for Liu Ruxue's contribution; saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, and look at how many lives she saved."

"All of us should thank Liu Ruxue!"

Liu Ruxue felt unworthy of the credit and told reporters that the credit was not entirely hers, but mainly belonged to the couple, Jiang Cheng and Si Rong.

For a time, Jiang Cheng and Si Rong were once again pushed to the forefront of public opinion.

Si Rong had no choice but to face an interview.

"I heard you are a geology enthusiast? So, were these earthquakes predicted by you?"

"What specific details did you use to infer this?"

"You are a Dance Teacher in Huaiyang, how could you predict something so far away?"

"That's right, and since you predicted the earthquake in advance, why didn't you report it?"

"Are you trying to take all the credit? If you had reported the prediction results to the state, the people in the city might not have died unjustly at all!"

"Teacher Si Rong, why aren't you saying anything?"

"Ambulance!" Jiang Cheng stepped forward to catch Si Rong's limp body and roared, "Back off, all of you! I don't owe you anything!"

The reporters were startled by his imposing manner, and only then were the medical staff able to come in and send Si Rong to the makeshift relief tent.

"What's wrong with my wife?"

The doctor checked her over, "There are no instruments here now, but for the moment she should just be overly exhausted; there is no danger to her life. You can go to a hospital for a follow-up check later."

"Okay."

Half an hour later, Si Rong woke up, not expecting that the Deputy Mayor wanted to see her.

"Wait a moment," Jiang Cheng took glucose powder from the truck and mixed a cup for her, "I'll go with you after you finish drinking."

The Deputy Mayor was indeed very curious about this couple, and after learning of Jiang Cheng's identity, he was even more solemn when talking to the two.

The content of this conversation mainly revolved around how Si Rong predicted the earthquake.

Si Rong did not understand geology, so she had to say that she had a precognitive dream.

The Deputy Mayor continued to press, but was stopped by Jiang Cheng.

"There aren't actually that many 'whys' in this world; regardless of the reason, we all worked together to minimize the damage from this earthquake."

"Furthermore, we have records of the earthquake predictions being continuously reported back then; can you and the Mayor explain why they weren't reported up the chain?"

Deputy Mayor:...

In short, after this conversation, everyone kept their stories consistent.

Si Rong, as a geology enthusiast, predicted this earthquake together with Liu Ruxue and saved over ninety percent of the people in the city.

She became famous.

Half a month later, the rescue work had reached the final stages, and Si Rong and Jiang Cheng prepared to return to Huaiyang.

"We really are old," Si Rong stretched, "We've only been away from home for a few days, and I'm already homesick. I want to drink that hot and sour soup from the shop at the entrance of our compound."

"Alright, we'll drink it when we get back."

The phone rang, and Jiang Cheng picked it up, not expecting it to be Zhang Linsen.

The tone of the call this time was much warmer, saying he wanted to see them.

In fact, they were all living in the earthquake tents, and he had long wanted to come see Jiang Cheng, but felt embarrassed because of previous events.

This call was a probe to see if his teacher held any grudges against him.

"Not going, no time."

Zhang Linsen regretted it immensely; he was indeed holding a grudge.

But when the teacher went to his home, he didn't tell him it was about this; who could have imagined he would go look for Xu Jie again.

It is said that after this earthquake, Xu Jie will soon be promoted.

If he had known earlier, then the one getting this promotion would have been him.

The second day after Si Rong returned to Huaiyang, she woke up naturally.

Xiao Bai was sitting on the window, and seeing her wake up, he ran over and rubbed affectionately against her face.

Downstairs, the bickering of the two siblings drifted into her ears, faint and fragmented, feeling very intimate.

The fragrance of spicy soup wafted over, and Jiang Cheng brought the meal directly to the bedside, "Eat first, after you finish eating, we'll go to the hospital."

Si Rong was indeed very exhausted, so she did not refuse; the spicy soup paired with deep-fried dough sticks greatly whetted her appetite.

"No need to go, I feel perfectly fine, there's no problem."

"I know there's no problem," Jiang Cheng insisted, "it's just for a basic physical examination, the two of us together."

Si Rong fainting in Chuan Shi previously made him feel uneasy.

"You forgot, the physical exam organized by the school last year, I was perfectly fine."

"Listen to me this time."

Seeing him like this, Si Rong had no choice but to nod.

Si Rong sat in the passenger seat, and the moment she lowered her head, she suddenly felt a bit dizzy; she shook her head.

"What's wrong?"

Jiang Cheng leaned over halfway to fasten her seatbelt.

"Dizzy from your handsomeness," Si Rong joked.

Jiang Cheng curled his lips, and the car drove out of the Family Quarters, but it was surrounded by a group of reporters.

Outside the car window were cameras, "Hello, Teacher Si Rong, I am a reporter from the Huaiyang Morning Post, could we trouble you for two minutes to accept an interview?"

"Commander Jiang, we have some questions regarding the Chuan Shi earthquake that we would like to ask you; please step out of the car and cooperate."
