Chapter 1047: Chapter 1029: There May Be a Typhoon Coming Chapter 1047: Chapter 1029: There May Be a Typhoon Coming But compared to that place, it was a lot safer here, largely because there were no tall buildings around.

The city had apparently seen a significant death toll in the last disaster, and the concern over collapsing buildings was very high.

It was unclear whether it was due to the shoddy construction of the buildings or the strength of the earthquake, but Yuxin didn’t know how many people had been rescued.

However, it was possible that only a third survived.

This earthquake could be considered an overwhelming catastrophe for this small town.

Indeed, relative to the city center, this place was much safer.

Yuxin had specifically looked up the reports because many vacationers had gone missing here, but now the area where she and Gu Ning were staying was comparatively safe.

So she hadn’t thought about leaving.

Don’t ask her why she didn’t leave.

She had checked for flight tickets; since it wasn’t the tourist season, there weren’t many flights here.

If they wanted to fly back, the earliest flight wouldn’t be for another three days.

By then, a severe typhoon would hit, meaning the plane wouldn’t be able to take off.

They would end up having to come back here and wait, which could be even more dangerous than now.

Rather than waiting for that kind of danger, she would rather take the initiative to prepare.

At the very least, they wouldn’t starve in the next half month, nor would they die of hunger.

And even though they were near the sea, she couldn’t possibly drink the seawater, right?

In the meantime, she kept trying to buy tickets back to Beijing but never could.

She considered flying with connections, but coincidentally, all the flights were booked up for the next three days, which was when the typhoon was supposed to hit.

Even if she bought a ticket, they would still end up stranded in the end.

She propped up her face, grabbed a handful of hair, then decided to change her clothes.

Gu Ning would take her out to eat.

As for the supplies in the kitchen, it was better to save them.

Although they had enough to last more than a month, it was wise to prepare more.

She hadn’t shared this with Gu Ning and didn’t know how to say it.

Could she really tell him, “Gu Ning, there’s going to be an earthquake here soon, and we’ll be trapped for half a month”?

Congratulations to us, we’ve won the jackpot again, getting to stay here for half a month waiting to be rescued.

If she told him, Gu Ning might laugh, thinking it was a joke, or he might believe her.

But if he believed, how would she explain it to him?

Could she really talk about such a supernatural thing?

It was her biggest secret, and it was better for her to carry it alone.

As for others, simplicity in their lives was preferable.

She could only prepare secretly and with great effort had managed to secure enough supplies for them for half a month.

“What’s up, awake?”
Gu Ning opened the door and walked in to see Tang Yuxin still sitting there, seemingly lost in thought.

Awake now, Tang Yuxin stretched lazily, hiding the excess emotions in her eyes as well.

Time had brought her many benefits and a quite secure disguise.

She could perfectly embody anything she pretended to be.

Besides, she wasn’t really pretending or acting; she had just told a small lie.

It was a lie she couldn’t share with others, and some burdens had to be carried alone, unknown to outsiders.

“I’m hungry,” Tang Yuxin hopped down, looking for her shoes to wear.

“Let’s go for a big meal today, at that place.”
“Okay,” Gu Ning agreed, pleased to see Tang Yuxin regaining some energy.

Whatever she wanted to eat was fine; wherever she wanted to go, no matter the distance, he would take her.

Soon after, they arrived at the stall’s entrance, ordering plenty.

For Tang Yuxin, it truly felt like another lifetime.

Who knew if this place would even exist after the storm passed?

So while they still could, they might as well eat more, look more, and think more about these days.

In the evening, with nothing to do, Gu Ning noticed Tang Yuxin bored, propping up one side of her face.

She wasn’t reading or watching TV, just holding a bag of snacks, hardly eating any.

She seemed pretty bored.

“How about I take you out shopping?”
Gu Ning tentatively suggested.

Tang Yuxin’s face lit up, “Really?”
“Yeah, really.”
Gu Ning got up and went out to put on his clothes, intending to call for Tang Yuxin when he returned, only to find that she had already put on her shoes.

Indeed, after days of shopping outside, she must be longing to do so again.

Once they spoke of going out, she instantly revived.

“Let’s go,” Gu Ning had no other choice but to take the car keys and leave.

After all, sitting around was boringaEUR”they were here on vacation, not waiting for work the next day.

Vacation should be relaxed and enjoyable; everything unrelated to that can be put aside for the moment.

But when Gu Ning stepped outside, he held his hand in the air, feeling the wind blowing against him.

“Is the wind a bit strong?”
He muttered to himself.

The wind was indeed strong, and they hadn’t experienced such winds in the four days they had been there.

It’s not that there were no winds over the seaaEUR”in fact, there were often winds, but this kind of wind carrying such dense moisture was unusual to him.

Or was it because he had been away for so many years that even the wind here had changed?

It could also be possible.

The whole world was warming up; what could not change?

He didn’t dwell on this and drove towards the city.

However, upon getting out of the car, Gu Ning still felt the wind was unusually strongaEUR”could a typhoon be imminent?

Having lived here for several years, he had some understanding of the climate.

These winds felt very abnormal and might indeed indicate a coming typhoon.
