Chapter 13
The next day, Dongqing got up early and made breakfast for her mother and daughter, as if the quarrel last night had never happened.

Jia Lie didn't mention it again. In front of the children, they had to maintain the harmony and dignity that adults should have.

Dongqing turned on the TV to listen to the morning news, and the TV was broadcasting information about the "*******", and the report said that there were many new confirmed cases and deaths in Wucheng.

Dongqing looked worried: "This matter is getting bigger and bigger. We need to prepare more masks and disinfectant. Two days ago, I bought a pack of family-sized N95 masks online. If the situation is serious, we must wear them when we go out." Mask.”

Jia Lie was a little disapproving: "You are too unreasonable to worry about it. You actually bought a mask? How uncomfortable and ugly it is to wear a mask when going out. Besides, this epidemic is in Wucheng, several provinces away from here. Now the medical science is so If it is developed, it will definitely get better soon.”

Dongqing said sternly: "We don't care about discomfort or ugliness now. This is a matter of life. Wearing a mask will prevent you from being infected easily. Beauty and ugliness are nothing compared to life."

Jia Lie snorted: "I really didn't realize it, but you still cherish your life."

Holly glanced at her and said while feeding the child, "I'm afraid no one will take care of you after I die."

Two days later.

Dongqing went to wake Jia Lie up early in the morning. Jia Lie was sleepy and rubbed his eyes: "The holiday starts today, why are you calling me so early?"

"Get up quickly, Wucheng is on lockdown!"

Jia Lie lost all sleep in an instant and got up quickly: "Is the city closed?"

The next second, Jia Lie's phone rang. It was Sun Yan.

When Jia Lie picked it up, he heard Sun Yan crying, "Jia Lie, Liu Quantao was infected with a virus. He started to have a fever the second day after the party. I thought it was just a common cold and fever. It’s useless. I didn’t expect that when I went to the hospital today, I was diagnosed with the virus. Now the hospital has isolated him. The three of us had a party that day. You should also isolate yourself quickly, and don’t contact other people in the next two weeks. , I really didn't expect to bring you such a big trouble..."

Jia Lie couldn't listen to what Sun Yan said next. She couldn't help but think of the news mentioning that "**** was diagnosed in many places and there were many deaths. She originally thought it was just a more contagious form of pneumonia. She thought this was something in the news, far away from her. Unexpectedly, she also became a part of the news.

Jia Lie looked at the gloomy Dongqing and the bewildered daughter, and a fear that he had never felt before slowly enveloped his whole body.

After her mood stabilized, she immediately searched for the epidemic online and found that the hot search lists were all about the epidemic.She clicked in and read them one by one. When she finished reading them all, her heart felt like a ruins swept by a tsunami, dead silent and lifeless.

Her initial fear turned into fear of the unknown.

Dongqing has been watching the TV news. The news channel mentioned that they would be connected to experts soon to talk about this "****." Jia Lie came over to sit with Dongqing, intending to listen carefully to the experts' explanations.

From the words of experts, Jia Lie and Dongqing knew that they must isolate themselves first if they have been in contact with confirmed patients.Today is January 23rd, and those two weeks of quarantine mean that they will not be released from quarantine until around February [-]th.

Fortunately, Jia Lie and his company's holiday can be put on the Lantern Festival, basically they will go to work after the quarantine period.

Unable to go out, the top priority is to buy some vegetables and food online.Because it was the Chinese New Year, Dongqing had stocked up on a lot of food before, but it was not enough.Once in trouble, human beings' thirst for food will be infinitely magnified, because this is the basis for survival.

Dongqing ordered a lot of dishes on her mobile phone at once and stocked up the food at home. Jia Lie was worried that it would rot if she couldn't finish the food. Dongqing said that she would be prepared for any eventuality. If she has children at home, she would feel more at ease if she prepared more.

Speaking of children, Jia Lie suddenly felt sad when he looked at his confused daughter who was watching cartoons.They were sitting so close to Liu Quantao at that time, and Liu Quantao even hugged the little winter melon during the meal. If he was infected, then they were most likely infected too. Children's resistance is not that strong. Just in case... Jia Lie doesn't Dare to think about it, fearing to scare her daughter by crying in front of her, Jia Lie quickly walked into the bathroom.

When Jia Lie came out of the bathroom, her eyes were red, and it was obvious that she had been crying for a long time.

Dongqing has been with her for more than ten years, and Jia Lie has always been a woman in his mind who is independent-minded, able to withstand pressure, and is even more resolute than men.He rarely saw her cry. Looking at her red eyes and nose, he walked over and hugged her hard. He wanted to say something to comfort her, but couldn't.

Jia Lie became anxious, not knowing what would happen during the next quarantine period. She went from fear to anxiety. She didn't know whether her family would be infected, and if so, whether her life would be in danger.She tried to imagine what she would do if Holly or her daughter's life was in danger.

As soon as the thought came out, her face turned pale and she felt like she couldn't breathe.
