Kang Chen's heart skipped a beat. Shutdown?
Why would the phone be shut down at this time?
Previously, Ming Mei would also shut down her phone, but it was usually after a call at night; she never shut it down during the day. Could it be... something really happened?
Kang Chen was uneasy, but he didn't want to jinx it by scaring himself about Ming Mei.
He hesitated for a moment and then called Beitang Qing.
The call went through, but Beitang Qing's secretary told Kang Chen that he was in a very important meeting and that right after the meeting, he needed to depart immediately for an inspection because there was an earthquake in a city in the southwest of UC last night. Beitang Qing had to go there to stabilize the situation.
Kang Chen hung up the phone.
He quickly checked the news and indeed saw recent reports about a 6.5 magnitude earthquake in Ji City in the southwest of UC, which had already caused significant casualties. It made sense for Beitang Qing to go there.
