Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 332 - 331: The Storm Approaches

"Take a look."

Sheng Zexi didn’t expect that Ningning could produce another future newspaper.

What exactly did the future newspaper report to make Ningning so worried?

With doubt, Sheng Zexi quickly took the newspaper and glanced at it.

After reading it, his heart sank as well.

A typhoon of magnitude 13, such significant casualties and property damage.

No wonder Ningning was so anxious.

Sheng Zexi also knew that this couldn’t be ignored; preparations had to be made.

It’s just...

This typhoon is coming at such an inconvenient time.

Ningning is due to give birth in a few days.

In such a challenging situation...

"Brother Xi, what do you think we should do?" Gu Jia Ning asked.

"This newspaper definitely can’t be leaked out," Sheng Zexi said. Of course, even if the newspaper is shown to the higher-ups, they might not believe it.

He couldn’t expose Ningning.

"The only thing we can do now is issue a warning in advance."

Inform the leadership as soon as possible that a major typhoon is approaching, with massive destructive power.

Ask them to evacuate residents from dangerous areas on the island within three days.

Minimize casualties and property damage as much as possible.

This is the only way.

But...

"Would the leaders believe it?" Gu Jia Ning asked.

Sheng Zexi fell silent; this was exactly what he was worried about.

Currently, the technology for detecting typhoons isn’t very advanced; predictions can only be made one or two days in advance.

Moreover, due to lagging technology,

The typhoon’s wind direction, changing paths, wind speed, etc., are difficult to monitor.

If monitoring is difficult, disaster preparedness is also challenging.

Just like what the future newspaper said, even though it’s clearly a strong typhoon, a magnitude 13, what the military meteorological staff detected was merely a tropical depression.

As a result, disaster preparedness was insufficient.

This led to such a high number of casualties and significant property damage.

Now, we have to make the leaders believe that this time it’s a major typhoon.

And it will land in three days.

If the leaders believe this, everything will be much easier to handle.

By then, the military will surely use the highest standards to prepare for the disaster.

"As for how to make the leaders believe..." Sheng Zexi murmured, pondering, "Ningning, I’m afraid you’ll have to handle this."

Gu Jia Ning was puzzled: "Me?"

"Yes, do you remember when we first arrived at Huan Sha Island, and you predicted the weather?"

Gu Jia Ning remembered.

At that time, she checked the weather forecast, which showed heavy rain at sea, so she chose to rest at the hotel and wait until the next day to go to the island.

And back then, Zhao Weiguo and others didn’t believe her words.

They insisted on heading to the island.

As a result, they encountered heavy rain halfway and had to turn back.

Because of this incident, Zhao Weiguo and others no longer underestimated Gu Jia Ning’s ability to predict the weather.

"This time we can tell Zhao Weiguo, saying that it was your prediction."

"I think, after what happened last time, Zhao Weiguo and others will believe you."

We are involving Zhao Weiguo because his brother, Zhao Hongxing, works in the military meteorological department.

If Zhao Weiguo relays this information, Zhao Hongxing might take it more seriously.

"Then they can spread the word, and we can inform the leadership again."

"The leadership will be more inclined to believe it."

"Moreover, we can directly reach out to Mr. Lu for this matter."

After the last incident, Sheng Zexi had a positive impression of Mr. Lu.

Additionally, Mr. Lu currently holds the highest authority in the military and is in charge of the entire Huan Sha Island.

Therefore, as long as Mr. Lu believes, it will be straightforward to handle everything else.

Gu Jia Ning nodded, "This is the only way."

"Alright, let’s proceed with this plan tomorrow..." The couple huddled together, meticulously planning the next steps.

After a long discussion, they finally nailed down the plan.

"Okay, that’s settled. Ningning, don’t worry too much."

"Now that we know about it, there is a chance to change things."

"No matter what, it won’t turn out like the future newspaper said."

"You’re right." After Sheng Zexi’s reassurance, Gu Jia Ning finally relaxed after a whole day of worry.

"I’m just not sure what the outcome will be..." Gu Jia Ning murmured.

Sheng Zexi held her hand, "Ningning, knowing these things, we just need to try our best."

"If we do everything we can and still can’t change the outcome, we can at least have a clear conscience."

Gu Jia Ning: Alright.

"What I am most concerned about now is you." Sheng Zexi stroked her head.

Then placed a hand on her swollen belly.

"Your due date is just these few days, and coincidentally, the typhoon will come."

"Though I’ve taken leave, I’m worried that if the military lacks manpower, I might still need to help."

"If that happens, I won’t be able to be with you, Xingxing, and Yueyue."

This was what worried Sheng Zexi the most.

If he’s not around, the household would only have Ningning, who’s about to deliver, and the young Xingxing and Yueyue.

Even though Amber is there,

Amber, while smart, is a dog after all.

If anything happens, no one would understand Amber’s words.

Moreover, there’s only one Amber against Ningning and the two children, Xingxing and Yueyue.

At that moment, Sheng Zexi regretted that if Hong Ying and Lei Ting hadn’t gone to be military dogs.

At least with them at home, he wouldn’t be so worried.

Otherwise, if there were a grandmother or mother-in-law around, he would feel more at ease.

But now...

"How about I hire someone to take care of you?" Sheng Zexi suggested.

If they were in the Northwest Military Region, Ningning would have neighbors and friends like Zhang Shuwan for support, but on Huan Sha Island, they had no one else to rely on.

Sheng Zexi could only hire help.

Gu Jia Ning felt like refusing.

However, she knew that Sheng Zexi’s concern was valid.

If the typhoon comes and Sheng Zexi needs to help, while she needs to give birth, it wouldn’t be a good situation.

"Alright, then you find someone," she said.

"Moreover, once the leadership believes in the typhoon threat, I’ll be admitted to the hospital."

"At least, by being in the hospital ready to give birth, if you aren’t around, it won’t be as chaotic," Gu Jia Ning suggested.

"Alright, let’s do that!"

Meanwhile, Xingxing and Yueyue had been watching since their parents went into the room.

Seeing their parents come out, and observing that their mom seemed in better spirits,

The two little ones were also relieved.

Only when Gu Jia Ning came out did she realize that the children hadn’t had dinner yet because they were worried about her.

She felt a little guilty.

She pulled the two children in close, "It’s Mom’s fault, Mom made you worry."

"Mom’s fine now, let’s eat together."
