Bai Wutong sat on the soft sofa and looked at the heavy rain outside the window. She tightened her cloak and couldn’t help but worry about how much the crops planted would be affected.

“Whoo—”

The wind howled and black shadows quickly passed by the horizon. It was probably someone’s tent that had been blown away again.

The trees outside the door swayed crazily, as if they were playing rock and roll.

“Bang—”

Something fell and shattered outside the door.

Xiaobai rushed to Bai Wutong immediately, as if she was facing a great enemy and wanted to protect her.

Xiaolv and the cubs followed closely behind and surrounded Bai Wutong.

In the cold night, Bai Wutong felt extremely warm as she looked at their furry backs.

She touched the top of Xiaobai’s head and comforted it to not worry. Only then did Xiaobai relax and rub its head against the back of Bai Wutong’s hand.

The cubs were unwilling to fall behind and fought to be patted on the head by Bai Wutong, pushing Xiaobai to the side.

Bai Wutong touched them one by one, and her lonely heart was filled because of these cute furry things.

The child in her stomach suddenly kicked her. Bai Wutong chuckled and gently stroked her stomach. “1 didn’t forget you.”

The rain did not stop, but it was time for Bai Wutong to rest.

She returned to the bedroom. The wide bed looked empty without Chu Tianbao’s traces.

Disappointment flashed across Bai Wutong’s eyes, and her sleepiness dissipated. She sat on the desk and picked up a wooden figurine to study it carefully.

This was a set of gifts that Chu Tianbao had specially carved for her after learning that she was pregnant. There were a total of 10 figurines, and each figurine was a lifelike version of herself.

Every little figurine smiled so brightly and beautifully. Chu Tianbao had given them souls. He had exquisite carving skills and a heart that loved her deeply.

She wondered where he was and if things were going well. Bai Wutong closed her eyes and thought of his gentle expression. Her heart skipped a beat. Suddenly, she missed him very much…

Suddenly, she felt a strange touch on her hand. Bai Wutong suddenly opened her eyes and took the little figurine closer to look. She realized that there was a circle of small words on the base of each little figurine that was not easy to discover.

Bai Wutong’s eyes lit up. She picked up the other little figurines and sized them up carefully. In the end, she placed them neatly in a line. It was a sentence that Chu Tianbao had left for her.

“Tianbao and my wife will be together forever.”

The moment Bai Wutong said it, her nose stung and tears rolled out of her eyes. She hurriedly wiped her tears and replied while looking far away, “Definitely.”

Bai Wutong hugged the little figurine and fell asleep blissfully. When she woke up the next morning, as she had expected, more than half of the crops were destroyed.

Everyone was waiting for Bai Wutong to organize them and arrange work.

After Bai Wutong heard the preliminary report of the disaster from all sides, she looked at the cloudless sky with a mere glance.

Countless seabirds cried out and circled around, as if they were foreshadowing something.

Bai Wutong looked at the situation. The heavy typhoon was still waiting for them.

It was not convenient to save the crops at this time. It would be very dangerous if a typhoon suddenly struck.

Bai Wutong asked everyone to clear the roads blocked by the rainstorm sludge and check the drainage and dangerous buildings and areas. She sent someone to remind them and check the population to ensure that everyone had food to eat and clean water to drink when seeking shelter from the typhoon. She also arranged for people who needed treatment to be saved in time.

Everyone did as they were asked and hurriedly worked until the afternoon. As expected, another huge wave rose on the sea, like the mouth of a huge beast, trying to engulf Carefree City.

Fortunately, Carefree City was in an excellent location and would never be submerged by the seawater. The drains in various areas were also operating very smoothly. So far, Carefree City was not too affected by the typhoon.

Another night passed.

The next morning was bright and sunny. The world was finally calm.

Bai Wutong personally patrolled the disaster situation. The crop loss rate was as high as 60%, and the sapling loss rate was as high as 70%.

Fortunately, they had saved a portion of the vegetables and food previously. Otherwise, their losses would have been even greater.

Yu Suisheng’s newly recruited citizens were about to reach Carefree City, and the population would increase to more than 500,000. If they did not have this batch of food, they would have to buy food again.

Previously, it was relatively easy to buy food, but Bai Wutong had already established her own country. It was definitely not easy to buy food from the Central Plains.

Therefore, it was very important to plant more food.

Village Chief Zhao looked at the farmland that they had carefully taken care of and felt sorry for it.

Many acres of land here were planted with Bai Wutong’s high-yielding seeds. They were still waiting to plant a large number next year after the harvest.

Now, it was all ruined!

Village Chief Zhao’s heart ached.

In particular, he wanted to cultivate corn and wheat with high yield according to the genetic grafting method mentioned by Bai Wutong.

No matter how much Village Chief Zhao’s heart ached, it was useless. He could only send people to save the food crops that could still be planted.

Apart from the serious destruction of the crops, several large fishing boats had also suffered varying degrees of damage. For the time being, they could not go out to sea to fish.

The pearl farmers were even more miserable. Many fish baskets containing sea clams had been swept away by the typhoon and waves.

The houses were still being built. The wooden frames had either collapsed or the building materials were soaked with water. They could no longer be used.

There was too much water in the mushroom cultivation shed, and many mushrooms that needed to be picked had already rotted before they could grow.

There were also the various losses by each family. It was quite heartbreaking.

Bai Wutong arranged for people to be transferred to support areas where there were insufficient manpower. She introduced a series of disaster support policies for the workers, farmers, and merchants who had suffered heavy losses.

Soon, under Bai Wutong’s guidance, everyone resumed work.

Zhao Pengfei was in charge of repairing the road. Su Yue was one of the people transporting the supplies, so she finally had a chance to approach Zhao Pengfei.

She sized up Zhao Pengfei and was very satisfied with his tough appearance. She took out a few peach crisp biscuits from her pocket and handed them to him with a face full of love. “Engineer Zhao, you’ve worked hard. Eat something before continuing. Don’t tire yourself out.”

Zhao Pengfei did not know Su Yue at all. He naturally refused to accept what she handed over and waved his hand. “I’m not hungry.”

Su Yue was not discouraged. “Then Engineer Zhao, drink some water.”

With a delicate voice, she looked at Zhao Pengfei with gentle eyes. She looked very similar to Mingyue back then.

Zhao Pengfei’s expression suddenly darkened. “This is where 1 work. Unauthorized people can’t walk around casually!”

Su Yue’s smile froze, but she quickly reacted and explained, “I’m not an idler. I’m here to deliver cement to you.”

Zhao Pengfei said even more bluntly, “Since you’ve already sent it, leave quickly! Don’t delay things here!”

He said it especially loudly, and everyone around looked at Su Yue strangely. Su Yue could not hold back the smile on her face anymore and turned to leave in embarrassment.

She cursed in her heart that he was old-fashioned and did not get married at such an old age.. He must like men!
