Chapter 905
Xue Tao nodded in agreement, "Yes, Yuxuan is always so good to us. Now that she's in trouble, how can we just stand by and watch? Zhipeng, you have to take care of yourself too. Yuxuan will definitely not want to see you exhausted when she wakes up."
Zhipeng listened to Chunchun's words, his eyes focused a little, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Okay."
Zhong Tiyun sighed, reached out and patted Zhipeng's shoulder, her tone loving: "Zhipeng, don't blame yourself too much. Yuxuan is a sensible child. She saved you from the bottom of her heart. What you have to do now is to take good care of yourself. When Yuxuan wakes up, she will still need you."
The tall man's eyes became red again.
Zhipeng felt that he had shed all the tears of the first half of his life when his parents died, and now that his sister was seriously injured, he had shed all the tears of the second half of his life.
They chatted for a few more minutes, and when Zhou Shuwan saw that Zhipeng's mood had stabilized a little, he decided to leave.
She stood up and said to Zhipeng, "Zhipeng, you should also rest more and don't get too tired. If there is any situation with Yuxuan, please inform us at any time."
Zhipeng raised his head, his eyes filled with gratitude: "Okay, Wanwan, you guys have worked hard too."
Zhou Shuwan and his family walked out of the ward. The light in the corridor was still dim, as if the burden on their hearts had not been relieved at all.
Zhong Tiyun lowered her head to adjust her scarf, her fingers unconsciously stroking the fabric, her brows furrowed.
Zhou Jianghai followed behind with heavy steps, occasionally looking up at the metal ceiling of the mothership, a trace of confusion in his eyes.
They walked in silence until they reached the rest area in the center of the mothership. Qi Mingyu suddenly seemed to remember something, stopped, turned around and said to everyone, "Isn't Captain Shang also injured? Where is he staying now? We should go visit him."
Zhong Tiyun nodded hurriedly upon hearing this, her voice carrying a hint of urgency: "Right, right, right! This is as it should be! Captain Shang and Captain Chen were both injured while trying to protect ordinary survivors like us. It would be unreasonable for us not to go and take a look."
They asked the soldiers on the road and learned that he was now in the captain's office.
They went to their own dormitories and took a few gifts.
After packing up, the few of them set off again, walking through the corridor of the mothership and heading towards the captain's office.
Along the way, they saw many people busy removing ice from the mothership's hull and clearing away debris.
Looking out the window, the outside world was still shrouded in endless darkness. Only the ice fields and the small islands appeared exceptionally clear under the night vision goggles, but what came into view was a mess.
Zhou Jianghai stood by the window, looking out solemnly, his voice low, "It's so cold, and if you don't live underground, you'll always feel uneasy. The mothership can keep you warm, but no one can predict how long the fuel will last."
Zhou Shuwan also walked to the window and looked at the island in the distance.
Under the dark night, the island seemed exceptionally peaceful, as if nothing had happened.
She was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "What does the military say about the victims?"
Qi Mingyu shook his head, his expression heavy. "Many soldiers and high-ranking officers also died on the warship side this time, but all post-disaster reconstruction work is underway right now, and the temperature is low, so the bodies can be preserved for the time being. Therefore, the burial of the victims may be postponed."
Zhou Shuwan didn't say anything else and returned his gaze to the window.
A heavy silence permeated the crowd on and off the mothership, as if everyone's morale had been crushed to the point where they couldn't even raise their heads.
Of course she understood this mentality. The sense of despair brought by the disaster was like cold air, penetrating every pore.
Several people arrived at the captain's office and knocked on the door. Captain Shang's voice came from inside: "Come in."
Zhou Shuwan pushed open the door and saw Captain Shang sitting at his desk with a bandage on his forehead. His face was a little pale, but he was in good spirits.
