Chapter 750: Dong Xuebing’s death!

The main hospital building is going to collapse.

The open area outside of the hospital is chaotic.

Wang Anshi and Xue Qingrong had escaped for their lives and left Dong Xuebing and a nurse to die. Instead, Geng Yuehua, Wu Liang, and the rest tried to rush back into the hospital to save them. Both are the District’s top leaders, and their behaviors showed their differences. The people can’t be bothered with Wang Anshi and Xue Qingrong anymore. A few bolder young men ran towards the hospital with Mayor Geng.

Wang Anshi is looking terrible.

Xue Qingrong is looking down and dares not to look at others.

Geng Yuehua and the rest were some distance away from the hospital, but they could hear Zhan Rourou’s cries for help.

“Help!”

“I cannot move my leg!”

“Help…. Help me!”

“Please help me!”

The hospital’s main building is away from the entrance, and it will take more than a few seconds to reach it. It was too late for Geng Yuehua to reach the main building.

Rumble! Crash!

The building started crumbling. It can’t hold on anymore.

“Mayor Geng!” Ma Jian quickly pulled Geng Yuehua. “Don’t go! It’s too late!”

Wu Liang and the rest stopped. “Xiao Dong!”

Geng Yuehua shouted. “Let go of me! We must save them!”

Ma Jian is crying. “It’s too late! We are too late!”

The District Government staff and other patients who followed Geng Yuehua looked at the collapsing building in anger. Wang Anshi and Xue Qingrong could have saved Dong Xuebing and that nurse. But it is too late now….

The building is collapsing.

The walls on the west side are breaking down.

Everyone saw Dong Xuebing, who was lying outside of the main building, getting back on his feet. He pushed away the window on his back and staggered to his feet. He is covered in blood, and he glances at Geng Yuehua.

Geng Yuehua shouted. “Xiao Dong!”

Wu Liang shouted at him. “Come over here! Hurry!”

“Director Dong! Get over here! The walls are coming down!” A few staff shouted.

No one expected Dong Xuebing to get back on his feet. His bleeding seems to have stopped, and he is covered with fresh wounds on his head, body, and legs. Many people know why he was warded, and he can escape if he still has strength.

Everyone is looking at Dong Xuebing.

But Dong Xuebing did not run toward everyone. He turned and ran into the collapsing building. A large piece of debris almost falls onto him as he rushes into the hospital lobby. His bloody back view disappeared.

“Director Dong! Director Dong!”

“What are you doing?! Run!”

“The building is collapsing! Get away from it!”

“Director Dong is trying to save the nurse inside!”

“Xiao Dong! Get out of there now!”

“This is the end for him….”

A few patients and staff started crying. No one expects Dong Xuebing to try to save that nurse in this critical situation.

Dong Xuebing is full of injuries and can’t even walk properly! Yet, he is trying to save someone unrelated to him!

Everyone held their breath and stared at the building’s door.

A few moments later, a loud crash and the building’s door collapsed.

Dong Xuebing’s only escape route is sealed, and the building might come crashing down within the next few seconds.

Inside the building.

Dong Xuebing could no longer hear the cries from outside. His eyes are filled with determination. “Xiao Zhan! Xiao Zhan!”

Zhan Rourou is crying and holding her leg in the lobby. A large piece of concrete is pressing on her foot. She could hear the cries outside and knew Director Dong was injured. The District Party Secretary and Organization Department Chief had dumped them and escaped for tier lives. She had given up hope. She continues to cry for help, but she knows no one can save her. She is going to die here today.

“Xiao Zhan! Where are you?!”

It’s Dong Xuebing’s voice amidst the loud noise of debris falling.

Zhan Rourou could not believe her ears and shouted. “I am over here! Help me!” Director Dong had returned to save her!

Two seconds later, Dong Xuebing appeared in front of Zhan Rourou.

Zhan Rourou cried when she saw the bloodied Dong Xuebing. “Director Dong…. You….”

“Stop talking and follow me.” Dong Xuebing was too weak to speak. He is in pain, and his bleeding has made him weak. He pushed away the giant concrete slab and carried Zhan Rourou up.

Zhan Rourou is crying like a baby.

“It’s alright. Everything will be fine.” Dong Xuebing gritted his teeth. “Don’t worry. I will bring you out. We will be fine. Trust me.”

But there’s no more time.

When Dong Xuebing carried Zhan Rourou to the building’s main door, he realized this area had collapsed. They can’t get out of the building. Crash! The building finally came crashing down.

Zhan Rourou looks at the ceiling and walls, crashing down on them helplessly.

Dong Xuebing cursed under his breath and said the command.

STOP!

Bricks and concrete slabs hung in midair.

Dust, chairs, and tables stopped.

Dong Xuebing quickly ran towards the light from a wall. That is the only window on the ground floor.

Dong Xuebing knows he only has a few seconds left.

Give me a bit more time!

Please! I need a little more time!

But the god did not hear Dong Xuebing’s pleads. The walls and falling debris start to crash down again.

Dong Xuebing had used up all his time, and STOP was disabled automatically.

Dong Xuebing is five to six meters away from that window, and they will not get out in time.

Dong Xuebing was severely injured, and it was impossible for both to escape. He knows he doesn’t have the strength to jump out of the window now. He took a deep breath and looked at Zhan Rourou. A decision was made, and he took a big step forward. He used all his strength and threw her forward.

This throw had used up all of Dong Xuebing’s remaining strength.

Crash!

Zhan Rourou’s body broke the window and landed outside of the building.

The last thing Zhan Rourou saw was Dong Xuebing’s smile before the falling concrete slabs buried him. In an instant, the building was gone.

“Director Dong!” Zhan Rourou screamed.

Everyone is looking at the hospital nervously. The hospital had collapsed, they knew Dong Xuebing and that nurse will not survive. But a body flew out from a window at the final second before the building came crashing down.

“Someone had jumped out!”

“Who is it?!”

“It’s that nurse!”

“She is still alive!”

This is a miracle.

The building had collapsed entirely into a massive pile of concrete debris. Zhan Rourou is very lucky and was not hit by the falling debris. She had miraculously survived.

The ground stopped shaking, and the tremors stopped.

Geng Yuehua, Wu Liang, and Ma Jian ran to Zhan Rourou.

Many patients and staff rushed forward to help.

“Where is Xiao Dong?!” Geng Yuehua looked at the crying Zhan Rourou and shouted. “I am asking you, where is Xiao Dong! Where is he?!”

Wu Liang had a bad feeling and clenched his fists.

Zhan Rourou pointed to the pile of debris and cried. “It was Director Dong who saved me. He threw me out of the window…. Sob…. Please save him….”

It’s Dong Xuebing?!

Dong Xuebing had thrown Zhan Rourou out of the window before he died?!

Everyone’s eyes changed when they heard this.

Zhan Rourou pulled Wu Liang’s leg and begged. “Please save him…. Sob…. Please save Director Dong….”

Wu Liang’s tears flowed down his cheeks, and he looked at the three-story-high pile of debris. He shouts. “Xiao Dong! Can you hear me?! Give me a reply if you can hear me! I know you will not die so easily! Hurry and reply!”

A few District Government staff followed. “Director Dong! Director Dong!”

“Say something! Director Dong!”

There was no reply.

Ma Jian covered her mouth and burst out crying.

Many patients and staff started crying, and the sobbing got louder. Soon, everyone is crying.

Only Geng Yuehua did not cry, and she didn’t even drop a tear. She took a deep breath and ordered. “Contact the rescue team to dig into the debris and get him out. I want to see his body even if he is dead!” She suddenly coughed and fainted.

Ma Jian was shocked. “Mayor Geng!”

Wu Liang shouts. “Doctor! I need a doctor!”

Everyone knows Director Dong had died to evacuate the hospital.
