Chapter 88: Mutual Admiration Part Three

ilitation project to operate normally, withdraw the lawsuit against Hongzheng Law Firm, and restore everything to normal. This was her only requirement for agreeing to divorce.Cheng Zhimin agreed: "Ms..."This depends on how long Sro City can hold out. If the northern part of the city is captured by the rebels, the airport will be closed, and this place will become the most dangerous."

Several people huddled in the cramped office, studying a map and discussing the quickest and safest evacuation plan.

While separated by the glass window, Chen Ning could see the crowded airport waiting area, filled with people from all over the world, all waiting for their flights to depart. Each face showed a mixture of urgency, anxiety, fear, and exhaustion.

Chen Ling was arranged by Teacher Zhang to go to the front waiting hall with Teacher Liang to assist the colleagues from the local embassy in organizing the scene. There were compatriots from an entire waiting hall who would be able to leave today.

"Before we arrived, Teacher Zhang had already contacted three domestic airlines and arranged for over 30 civilian aircraft to be deployed here. If everything goes smoothly, all compatriots in the north of Sro City today will be able to leave safely."

Thousands of people were to evacuate on the same day, and the enormity of the task was immediately apparent. When they arrived, the entire waiting area was bustling with activity, with a dozen local embassy colleagues checking passports and processing boarding passes, while others maintained order at the scene.

Chen Ning and Teacher Liang also hurriedly joined the line. Teacher Liang held up a loudspeaker and shouted: "Please take out your passports, line up in an orderly manner, and refrain from making noise."

Even though everyone was being quiet and speaking in hushed tones, the airport terminal remained noisy because there were so many people.

Some were on the phone in hushed tones, reporting to family that they were already at the airport and about to board their flight home.

There was some hushed grumbling, complaints about having to leave in such a rush, and that many things were left behind locally and couldn't be taken back home.

Chen Ning stayed at the back of the line and checked if everyone's documents were complete beforehand, which helped to improve the efficiency of the colleagues who were checking passports ahead.

Soon, planes on the distant lawn took off one after another, and there were fewer and fewer compatriots in the waiting hall.

When she finally looked up at the sky, night had already fallen. She hadn't realized how much time had passed; she'd been busy all day long.

As darkness fell, the flames from the south of the city raged into the sky, painting it a fiery red. The sound of gunfire grew louder and clearer throughout the night, seeming to get closer and closer. So close, in fact, that even the agonizing cries of the wounded were audible. She, with her keen hearing, felt a sense of dread creeping over her.

Teacher Liang shouted over there: "There's one last plane, give it to them. Let's go eat first."

They had been on a plane for over ten hours, and as soon as they got off, they plunged into urgent work. They hadn't slept properly or had a decent meal in over a day.

When she was busy, she didn't feel tired or hungry at all. It wasn't until Teacher Liang reminded her that she realized she was hungry.

As Liang Lao Shi walked out, she held her phone in hand, intending to send Song Jingye a message. All day long, she had only sent him a brief message when they boarded the plane, and hadn't contacted him since.

Before the message could be sent, her gaze suddenly fixed on a corner behind a pillar. There, a middle-aged woman was holding a two-year-old child against the pillar, muttering to herself and never going to check in.

Chen Ning walked back and squatted in front of them, kindly reminding: "Have you finished checking in This is the last flight today."

She looked up at her and suddenly grabbed her hand: "Are you here to help us I can't leave, my husband is still in the south of the city, I have to wait for him to come back together."

Chen Ling was startled. "In the southern part of the city, you definitely can't get out today," she said. "What's your husband's name I'll help you contact him. But you and the child must go back first, it's too dangerous here."

The woman shook her head, tears streaming down her face: “I can’t get in touch with him. You’re all lying! I can’t get in touch with him. I won’t leave. We made an agreement to meet at the airport and go back together.”

The woman clung tightly to the child, huddled in a corner, extremely resistant.

Chen Ling knew that there was nothing to say at this point, so she could only adopt a firm attitude and say: “I understand your feelings, but this is our last flight leaving Xili country. If you don't leave now, no one can guarantee your safety in the future. You should consider yourself, but also your child. I believe that your loved one would want both you and your child to be safe wherever they are.”

"You give me information about your loved one, and I guarantee I will help bring him back safely."

The woman wouldn't have listened, but the baby in her arms started crying more and more as the sounds of approaching gunfire and explosions grew louder. She had no choice but to grit her teeth and give him her husband's information: "His name is Wu Jian. He's a construction worker from Zag City. He came to Slovik specifically to see me this time. Who knew it would turn out like this Please, please bring him back safely."

"We'll meet."

As soon as Chen Ning finished speaking, a deafening roar echoed overhead. It sounded like several helicopters were flying over, followed by a massive explosion that ripped through the sky. A fiery inferno erupted, and countless shards of debris flew towards them. The ceiling above the entire airport trembled violently.

The airport was bombed!

This was her first reaction, so instinctively she rushed forward to the woman and child, shielding them inside.

The entire airport was filled with screams and the chaotic sounds of people running everywhere. Women and children inside were terrified, their eyes wide as they huddled in the corners behind pillars, trembling.

There were still shards of glass falling from the ceiling and chunks of wood coming down, but the explosion had subsided. As she rose slightly, she saw through the front glass window into another waiting area, where a group of violent men in green uniforms rushed in, guns blazing, occasionally firing shots at the top of the airport. People were terrified, crouching with their heads covered, not daring to move.

Chen Ning immediately told the woman in front of her, "Go to the boarding gate quickly."

Seize every opportunity to escape. If the airport hasn't been taken over yet, there's still a chance of survival.

She rushed toward the boarding gate, shielding the mother and child. The woman trembled as she pleaded, "Please find Wu Jian for me and tell him that I'm waiting for him at home with our child. Please, you must."

"Don't worry, I will." Chen Ning replied with assurance.

Finally, I got the women and children onto the last plane. But the plane was on the tarmac outside, and it wouldn't take off because air traffic control had them on hold.

I saw Teacher Zhang running over with people, arguing with the airport staff. The staff spread their hands and said it was a regulation from their superiors and they couldn't do anything about it.

In a short while, hundreds of government soldiers in camouflage uniforms arrived to drive away the mob. The two sides clashed, and the entire airport was filled with smoke. Bullets frequently pierced through the glass and flew toward them.

Chapter teacher shouted: "You guys go back to the embassy first."

He stayed to help the last plane leave.

Chen Ning was unwilling to leave, wanting to stay and help, but Liang teacher dragged her out, saying: "One person can complete the work, there is no need to have more people increase the risk."the distance.As she walked towards the tea room, her phone rang. Seeing "Brother" on the screen, a sudden ache filled her nose. There was both grievance and a sense of comfort. She realized that if so...
