My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s

Chapter 1069: Chapter 1051: Used Up Chapter 1069: Chapter 1051: Used Up She had actually used up all their gas, and now, even if he wanted to boil a pot of hot water for Tang Yuxin, it was impossible.

He pursed his thin lips tightly, and could only place the kettle he was holding tightly back down.

Even if he wanted to find some firewood, it was currently raining outside, and any he found would be wet, or he would have to dismantle a cupboard to use as firewood, but even so, it seemed he had not prepared many tools at home.

Gu Ning walked over, and Tang Yuxin took out a box of milk and placed it in front of him.

Gu Ning took it and also brought the milk to his lips, drinking it.

And Tang Yuxin herself also took out a box and drank from it.

“We still have plenty of water, enough,” Tang Yuxin turned around, tugging Gu Ning’s hand, “and there’s also this milk, yogurt and the like, which are all sufficient.

Plus, I suspect it’s just these next few days, it’s already been five or six days, so I think they should be able to find us soon.”

Gu Ning reached out and ruffled Tang Yuxin’s hair, “We also need to drink cold water for a few days, and rely on snacks to get by.”

“I know.”

Tang Yuxin smiled at Gu Ning and then rested her head on his lap, “It’s okay, it’s just for a few days.

No matter how it is, it will pass.”

“Plus, there are still so many snacks; when we were wandering in the wilderness before, we didn’t know for how many days, and we managed to survive that way too.”

Tang Yuxin handed her cell phone to Gu Ning, “You should call Mom and Dad, so they don’t think you’ve gone missing, since it’s always me who’s reassuring them.”

“Alright,” Gu Ning took out his phone, and talked with his family.

It may have been because of their frequent conversations that, once they knew they were safe, his family wasn’t as anxious anymore, unlike the first call when they asked everything and worried about everything.

Now, just a simple reassurance was enough for them to be at ease.

Gu Ning didn’t talk long with his family; after he put down the phone, he realized that Tang Yuxin had fallen asleep at some point.

He pulled up the blanket to cover her and looked outside; the rain had stopped without him noticing.

If nothing went wrong, someone might come to rescue them in the next few days, and even if not, waiting a few more days wouldn’t hurt.

They could probably go home soon, yes, they could likely go home soon.

Although they couldn’t cook meals and could only eat biscuits and bread, the good thing was that after the rain stopped, the weather warmed up a bit, so even drinking bottled water didn’t feel cold anymore.

When night fell, and Tang Yuxin was asleep, he heard someone knocking on the door outside.

He sat up and looked back at Tang Yuxin; she was already asleep, and these last few nights, she had slept particularly soundly, so ordinary noises couldn’t wake her.

The knocking outside continued, only pausing briefly before starting up again.

Gu Ning stood up and walked to the door, then opened it.

Qin Ziye stood outside, his face showing both embarrassment and discomfort.

“Is there something you need?”

Gu Ning blocked the entire doorway with his body, not understanding why this person had come again.

He took their water and food; what else could he want?

“I…”

Qin Ziye licked his cracked lips.

“Could you give me some more food and water?”

“You’ve eaten everything?”

Gu Ning narrowed his eyes.

It would take a real pig to eat so much food.

What he had picked were substantial rations; enough for five people to eat for two days, but the two of them finished it in less than half a day.

Were they using purified water for showering, or could it be they were kicking the food around like beanbags?

“I…”

Qin Ziye started to speak but found himself speechless.

He hadn’t even had the chance to eat what he had taken because, after fighting with Guan Jing, she had thrown all the food into the toilet.

No matter how hungry he was, he couldn’t bring himself to eat such things.

That’s why he came here, hoping to borrow some more.

But to speak of borrowing was easier said than done.

If it were the end of the world, these rations could mean life, not just sustenance.

He didn’t know if Gu Ning would lend to him, but he had to try.

If he didn’t come, he might starve.

No one wants to die, especially not such a suffocating death, in a place like this.

So, in the end, he came, thick-skinned and abandoning all pride.

“Wait here.”

Gu Ning did not let him in.

This time, Qin Ziye knew better than to intrude and stood at the door, waiting.

Gu Ning went into the room where the food was stored, took out some edibles, put them in a big plastic bag, grabbed two bottles of water, and a few boxes of milk.

He walked out, handed the items to Qin Ziye, “You should go, she doesn’t want to see you.”

Gu Ning didn’t say much else, just sent him away.

Tang Yuxin really disliked Qin Ziye now, and Gu Ning knew that if she saw Qin Ziye, she might not be able to sleep that night.

When someone despises another person, even the air they breathe seems tainted.

Qin Ziye’s body stiffened momentarily, and then he turned and left the entrance.

It wasn’t until the door behind him closed that he stopped, slowly turned back, and stood there, staring at the shut door.

Had he made the opposite choices earlier, would today have been different?

His grandfather would still be alive, the Qin Family a notable influence; he would have had a wife and children.

But these were all just what-ifs.

Everyone has their what-ifs, yet no one can turn any into reality.

He continued on, unevenly stepping forward with his bundle of stuff.

In that moment, he couldn’t remember what kind of life he had been living just a short while ago.

Would he have to keep begging for food, or might he end up dying here?

Involuntarily, he felt a sense of despair, like a cornered beast at the end of its run.

Bent under the weight, he failed to see that, just over the horizon, several stars had quietly appeared and were twinkling steadily.

With the stars,

Perhaps tomorrow will be a sunny day.

Maybe the sun will really come out tomorrow,

And perhaps, they can leave.

Tang Yuxin was woken by a ray of sunlight, so she instinctively shielded her eyes with her hand.

It had been a long time since she had seen such a pleasant sun.
