Chapter 362 Dream Accident (1)_1
Lin Yuan also followed with a laugh, but her heart ached immensely. Although Xia Zheng spoke lightly, she could imagine how especially grave the situation must have been. Suppressing a refugee uprising wasn’t something that could be done with just a few words; Xia Zheng surely omitted many details to prevent her from worrying.
Despite not wanting to dwell on it, Lin Yuan couldn’t help but envision the hardships he endured. Starvation and freezing were a given, and he probably had to do all sorts of grueling labor as well.
"Is disaster relief just about distributing food? Don’t you also have to manage the floods and settle the refugees?"
Xia Zheng looked at Lin Yuan with some astonishment, not expecting such a young village girl to think of so much.
Pecking affectionately at the back of Lin Yuan’s hand, Xia Zheng’s eyes shone with admiration. "I always say, how could my woman be compared to ordinary women? Even in matters of disaster relief, my woman understands well. Let’s see who else dares to look down on me, ahaha."
Lin Yuan was startled, shocked by his sudden laughter. What had she said? Wasn’t it just managing floods and settling refugees? Was this some great matter? In her previous life when she watched TV, wasn’t this what was frequently reported in the news? Oh right, one must also prevent epidemics. Floods often brought the greatest hidden danger: beyond refugee uprisings, there were rampant epidemics.
However, looking at it now, since Xia Zheng returned so early, there probably wasn’t an epidemic.
Thinking of the epidemic, Lin Yuan suddenly smacked her forehead belatedly, asking with a bit of embarrassment, "That’s right, we’ve only talked about you. What about Lao Fan? Why didn’t he come back with you?"
Upon mentioning Lao Fan, Xia Zheng couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth, barely suppressing a laugh before he said, "Well, he, he still has some business to attend to and won’t be back for a couple of days."
