Chapter 42 The Flood

His courage seemed to have been exhausted just now, his face was flushed red in the darkness that Ye Manman could not see, and he still gritted his teeth and asked just this sentence.

Ye Manman frowned, a little unhappy.

"No, your kissing skills are too bad, I was almost suffocated just now."

She pushed him away and turned her back to him.

"sleep."

He Chen's heart skipped a beat.

It’s over.

Ye Manman leaned back vigorously until she was close to his body, she chuckled softly.

"No more kisses today."

Is that possible tomorrow?

He Chen really wanted to ask, but he was too embarrassed.

He touched his face that was still hot, recalling the scene when he hugged Ye Manman and kissed him just now, he couldn't help being delighted and at the same time extremely ashamed and angry.

Why are you so shameless?
Why is it so useless?I actually cried and was found out...

Her lips are really like jelly, so soft and sweet...

Gradually, He Chen gently hugged Ye Manman's slender waist, and fell asleep amidst the pleasant aftertaste.

That night, both of them slept extremely soundly, and were not affected by the intensifying rainstorm outside at all.

It wasn't until He Chen reluctantly got up in the morning, and when he went out to go to the town, he found that the men in the village were rushing out, and not far away, the team leader was also knocking on the door of every house holding a red flag.

"Hurry up, wake up your wife, children, and the elderly. There is going to be a flood. The men go to the square to get life jackets and supplies, and everyone else quickly packs up their things and goes to the nearby mountain to take refuge."

"Oh, it's raining so hard, it's killing people!"

The team leader knocked on the door from door to door, and the men from every house also ran out to get their things, and the women hurriedly packed their bags and dragged the children and the elderly out.

He Chen was also shocked when he heard this, and hurried into the house to shout Ye Manman.

Ye Manman was still dazed when she was woken up. After hearing He Chen's story, she also panicked, and hurried to pack the necessities in the room.

He Chen quickly went to get the life jacket and came back, took her packed bag and carried her up the mountain.

The people in the village basically came out, and the heavy rain was still washing the sky like last night, with no intention of stopping.

The sky was dark, and the ground was full of dirty muddy water and miscellaneous broken branches and grass leaves. Most people's ankles were submerged in it.

Everyone was drenched by the rain with their clothes sticking to their bodies, and they were extremely embarrassed, but no one spoke, and everyone buried their heads in the mountains to escape. Only occasionally the captain shouted with a loudspeaker to keep everyone from getting separated.

Ye Manman couldn't remember exactly how many people died in the flash flood caused by the torrential rain in the original text, but she remembered that a group of people from the village came out too late and did not keep up with the team.

The torrential rain washed the mountain road into a mess. They didn't know which way they were going, and accidentally walked into a ravine. As a result, a group of people were all submerged.

What role does the heroine Ye Xiaotong play here?

She should still be in town now, right?

In the original text, Ye Xiaotong seemed to be raising babies in the town at this time, eating and drinking, and came back to mourn for those people and donate money to their families after the natural disaster was over.

She and the male protagonist Xie Fengmian also returned to the village very enthusiastically to help everyone rebuild the village, so they gained a lot of favor from passers-by.

But does it matter if the group of people who went the wrong way just died like that?

Is their existence and death just to provide opportunities for the heroine to gain favor?
When reading the book, she didn't think there was anything wrong with the heroine's vision, but living in this village, she suddenly felt that the plot was ridiculous.

Those people are all flesh and blood...

"He Chen, let's tie some clothes on the tree as a sign? I'm worried that some people will miss the team. The rain has washed the mountain road into a mess. It will be dangerous if we go into the ravine."

"In case someone really goes up the mountain behind, they should be able to know where to go when they see the clothes we tied."

She leaned on He Chen's back and whispered a suggestion, but the people next to her heard her.

The man saw her so badly, he was afraid that she would not even have a change of clothes when she went up the mountain, so he kindly reminded her.

"There will be no one left. The captain knocks on the door from door to door. Everyone in our village is here. Don't waste the clean clothes."

After the man finished speaking, he wiped the water off his face, and walked up again.

He Chen didn't ask her why, but just handed her one of several small packages.

"Use my clothes, I'll carry you on my back, and you tie them to the tree."

Ye Manman returned the bundle to her and took another bundle.

"With my clothes, the bright colors are easy to see at a glance."

With such a torrential rain, it is difficult for people to open their eyes when walking up the mountain. If they barely open their eyes, they can only see a gray area, which cannot be seen with dark clothes and white clothes.

Ye Manman took out her red dress and the blue one, and handed them to He Chen.

"Tear them up, don't tear them too small, just tear a piece of clothing in half."

He Chen took the clothes, a bit reluctant, but after Ye Manman patted him on the shoulder, he still tore the clothes obediently.

Then they walked for a while, tying a piece of clothing to a thick branch, until they reached their shelter on the ridge.

Everyone sits together, there is no shelter, and there is no dry place, only the big tree covering the sky can give them some buffer, so that the heavy rain will not wash them too uncomfortable.

"Listen everyone, our conditions are difficult. We haven't had floods in these years, and we don't have experience in flood control. At present, only this place on the mountain is relatively safe, and the floods can't reach it. Don't run around!"

The captain yelled again with the trumpet.

"The men came to help set up the tent. I don't know how long the heavy rain will last. Even the elderly and children can't resist it for a long time. Please move quickly!"

The captain distributed the materials for the tent to several men who had no family members or children. Although the men were exhausted at the moment, they still ran to help set up the tent very actively.

After all, only by setting up a tent can one rest for a while, otherwise the rain will keep pouring down, and no one will be able to live. Just a high fever and a cold can kill most people.

He Chen also went to help, and Ye Manman carefully gathered her bags with women, children, and the elderly. Only then did she suddenly realize that Ye Xiaotong was also in this group of people.

what's the situation?
Shouldn't she be raising a baby in the town?Why are you here?

Looking at Ye Xiaotong, who was soaked like a drenched rat like everyone else and was carefully protecting her stomach, Ye Manman's face became even more puzzled.

It's true that she is pregnant, but what about her?

"Manman?"

Yang Xiumei saw her, but her expression was very bad.

Hearing Yang Xiumei's voice, the haggard Ye Xiaotong also raised her head sharply.

"Ye Manman! It's all your fault! You killed me!"

"?"

Ye Manman was confused.

"It's all your fault! You vixen! Seduce my husband!"

"If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't quarrel with Fengmian, I wouldn't go back to my mother's house, and I wouldn't encounter such a thing! Woohoo, I'm still pregnant, you bloody vixen, you killed me Already!"

Ye Xiaotong pointed at her and cried miserably, and they were surrounded by the three aunts and six wives in the village. Immediately, everyone cast suspicious glances at Ye Manman.

"I just said why Ye Manman wears new clothes all the time recently, maybe it's money from seducing my brother-in-law, tsk tsk."

"Not necessarily, isn't her family He Chen also buying new clothes, why can't Xie Fengmian buy them for He Chen? That's too..."

"..."
