An encounter at first sight
In May 2008, 22-year-old Shaou had just graduated from university. She is not only good-looking, but also has an elegant temperament.
As the only daughter in the family, Shaou has been pampered since she was a child.
In order to celebrate his imminent entry into society, Sha Ou and a few close friends decided to go on a graduation trip.
And the destination they chose was the beautiful land of abundance - Sichuan.
Sha Ou and his friends toured the streets and alleys of Chengdu with great interest, tasting the famous local hot pot and snacks.
A few days later, they drove to Wenchuan County, where they planned to relax for a few days.
However, at noon the day after they arrived in Wenchuan, an accident came.
A sudden earthquake broke the trip of the sand gull group.
Sand Ou was dining with his friends at a famous local restaurant when the ground suddenly shook violently.
Cutlery and glasses fell to the floor with a screeching sound. The sand gull was so frightened that he subconsciously wanted to hide under the table.
Unexpectedly, a tall man rushed over, grabbed the hand of the sand gull, and ran out without saying a word.
As soon as they rushed out of the restaurant on the front foot, the restaurant collapsed on the back foot.
If it weren't for this man, the sandgull might have been buried under the rubble.
The sand gull who survived the catastrophe came back to his senses and hurriedly expressed his gratitude to the benefactor who saved his life.
The man's name was Ba Shuai, and he was a local construction worker.
After a few brief greetings, Ba Shuai rushed back into the rubble to continue rescuing the other trapped people.
Sha Ou waited anxiously on the side, looking at Ba Shuai's desperate figure, her heart swelled with an inexplicable emotion.
Although Ba Shuai is covered in dust, in the eyes of Shaou, he is extremely handsome and reliable.
After the rescue work was over, Ba Shuai was surprised to find that the sand gull was still waiting for him.
Sha Ou asked for Ba Shuai's contact information, and wanted to find an opportunity to thank him in the future.
Ba Shuai was a little embarrassed, but still left his phone number. After the earthquake, Shaou contacted his friends.
The group was unharmed, and although there were some skin injuries, they finally managed to save their lives, and they were placed in a makeshift aid station.
In the days at the aid station, Shaou met Ba Shuai again.
It turned out that Ba Shuai, a local, had been helping rescue teams evacuate and resettle survivors in the disaster area.
Sha Ou always thought that if it wasn't for Ba Shuai who saved him in time, he would probably have been buried under the rubble. Despite the 18-year age difference between the two, Shaou still developed a special trust and dependence on him.
Whenever Ba Shuai came to visit Sha Ou, Sha Ou would intimately send him a bottle of water or a boxed lunch.
Life at the aid station passed day by day, and finally the day came when the sand gull returned to Henan.
Since the road repair work has not been completed after the disaster, Shaou had to leave early. Before leaving, Ba Shuai was busy with rescue work and could not find time to see off the sand gull.
Sitting on the bus home, Shaou's heart was filled with loss and reluctance.
After returning to Henan, Sha Ou always felt empty in his heart and became absent-minded.
At first, her parents thought she was scared, but the more she got to it, the more she felt that something was wrong.
Unwavering love
Under the repeated questioning of his parents, Sha Ou finally told about the experience of being in distress in the earthquake and being rescued by Ba Shuai.
Sha Ou's parents were very emotional after hearing this, and felt that it was a great luck for their daughter to meet such a benefactor. They encouraged Shaou to take the initiative to contact Ba Shuai to express his gratitude and ask him about his current situation.
Sha Ou plucked up his courage and dialed Ba Shuai's phone. Since then, Sha Ou and Ba Shuai have started talking on the phone and texting frequently.
In the heart of the sand gull, there was also a throbbing that he had never felt before. However, when Sha Ou confessed his feelings for Ba Shuai to his parents and friends, he was met with strong opposition.
Sha Ou's parents felt that their daughter was still young and inexperienced, and it was likely that they mistook the life-saving grace for love.
Moreover, Ba Shuai is 18 years older than Shaou, and the age gap between the two is too big.
Shaou's friends also expressed their disapproval.
A man who is still single in his 40s will have any hidden diseases or character defects?
In the face of everyone's opposition, the sand gull was extremely determined.
Sha Ou believes that love should not be limited by age, as long as two people truly love each other, they can overcome any obstacles.
In order to prove his determination, Sha Ou came to Wenchuan again and expressed his heart to Ba Shuai.
But what Sha Ou didn't expect was that Ba Shuai hesitated after hearing it.
He was worried that Sha Ou was still young and might not be able to distinguish between respect and love, and whether his current heartbeat would be just a momentary impulse.
He didn't want to delay Sha Ou's youth, so he politely rejected her. But Sha Ou still uses sincerity and persistence to prove that his feelings are not a momentary infatuation, but love from the heart.
At first, Shaou's parents were still not reassured.
But seeing the happy smile of their daughter and Ba Shuai when they were together, and seeing Ba Shuai's meticulous care and care for her daughter, they slowly changed their attitude.
Happy married life
In 2010, 24-year-old Sha Ou wore a white wedding dress, holding the hand of 42-year-old Ba Shuai, and entered the marriage hall with the blessing of relatives and friends.
After marriage, Sha Ou and Ba Shuai's life was plain and happy.
A year later, they gave birth to a son.
Three years later, the lovely daughter was also born, and the family of four was happy.
Ba Shuai is a simple man, he may not know any romance and sweet words, but he silently guards this home in his own way.
He worked diligently and pampered the sand gulls and children at the tip of his heart.
Sand Gull also does its best to create a warm and comfortable nest for the family.
More than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and in 2022, Sha Ou took Ba Shuai and two children to participate in Hunan Satellite TV's "Mamma Mia" program.
On stage, Sand Ou shared their extraordinary love story.
tells how Ba Shuai saved himself in the earthquake, and how he touched his heart with sincerity and persistence.
In order to express his gratitude for this relationship, Sha Ou created his own song "The Most Important Decision".
Even the well-informed Venus sincerely sighed that the love between Sha Ou and Ba Shuai has been strengthened by the baptism of the earthquake.
