The drama in the front hall happened again. It turned out that the door was locked at some point.
This is the security door for the study room! Not the kind of wood in the front room that you can knock holes into.
I am dead.
Ye Mingqian hugged this thought, and despair surged into her heart, and she fell to the ground weakly.
Without the air outlet, the smoke in the room gradually became thicker. No matter how hard she held her breath, she still had to breathe, but just for ventilation, she already had an uncomfortable and strong cough.
Same scene.
This happened once to the Zhou family six years ago.
But her mother was protecting her during the fire, and she fought desperately to save her. But this time, no one could come to save her. She had miscalculated and overestimated herself.
Even though she knew that the person who set the fire was still in Huo's house, and that the study was just a trap set by him, she still couldn't resist the temptation and got in.
This person is very clever and smart, and he understands her thoughts.
Who on earth is it?
Ye Mingqian arched his body and shrank himself into a small shrimp.
If Chi Yanchen were here, he would definitely laugh at his own stupidity, right?
He grabbed his neck and breathed in as much oxygen as possible.
But no matter how hard she tried to avoid it, the oxygen in her lungs became less and less, her breathing began to become difficult, and smoke and dust came in with every breath she took.
So be it.
She lowered her hands feebly, her eyelids began to become heavy, her head felt dizzy, and she could no longer think.
Chi Yanchen, I hope you can keep your promise and burn to me the ins and outs of the Zhou family fire next year.
Ye Mingqian closed his eyes.
Start waiting quietly for death.
boom!
There was a slight vibration from the door behind me.
somebody is coming?
Is it Gu Erya?
She burst out with a strong desire to survive, suddenly opened her eyes, stood up, and started banging on the door hard.
But this was a King Kong security door. No matter how hard he banged, the sound could not be heard. Ye Mingqian couldn't even hear any noise outside. She could only guess by the vibration of the door panel that someone outside was really trying to save her. .
With hope, she would no longer wait to die.
He raised his head and looked at the small ventilation window at Chi Yanchen's entrance and exit last time. The smoke did not go out there, so it was closed now.
The bookshelves and books on the second floor were completely burned. Without the help of Wia, the exhaust window above the head would definitely not be able to get out.
But what is different from the front hall is that there are no windows around Huo Jili's study, and the only escape route is the security door.
Ye Mingqian didn't despair this time. Now that she knew that someone outside was really trying to save her, she didn't feel so panicked.
Returning to where we were just now, we found that the safe on the ground had been buried in the fire, so we had to give up looking for another one.
In an environment full of fire and smoke, time passed extremely long. While she was paying attention to the fire under her feet, she also had to avoid falling pieces of wood on her head, which limited her movement.
Ye Mingqian is not afraid of fire on the ground now, because the ground is paved with blue bricks and cannot be burned. What is scary is the smoke and the beams and pillars overhead that may fall down at any time.
Without enough oxygen, the limbs of his body seemed to be tied with thousands of pounds of cotton. He was no longer able to lift it up, and his consciousness became increasingly blurred. He was holding a white safe he had just picked up in his hand.
This is the last hope.
Ye Mingqian thought, as if he saw Chi Yanchen's face at the last moment when he lost consciousness.
She was not mistaken, it was really Chi Yanchen.
He came to save her.
"Are you okay? I, I'll take you to the hospital."
Chi Yanchen carried Ye Mingqian out of the sea of fire. His palms were covered with sticky blood. For a moment, he was so frightened that he went blank.
Fresh air entered her lungs again, and she seemed to come to life. Her throat was itchy, and she couldn't help but cough a few times and spit out a mouthful of ashes.
"fine."
Ye Mingqian opened her eyelids to make sure she was not dreaming and hugged the man's waist tightly with her hands.
In her arms was a safe that she desperately carried out of the fire.
"You really don't want your life. What should I do if something goes wrong?"
Chi Yanchen saw Ye Mingqian's hand tightly protecting it. The small safe was furious, "Do you know you almost died? Ye Mingqian, are you a pig in the head?"
"Have you found out who set the fire?" The voice was hoarse and unpleasant.
Ye Mingqian started to think about other things when she had some strength. She didn't care about Chi Yanchen's impending rampage, but just held his hand tighter.
"When I find this guy, I'm going to cut him into pieces."
Chi Yanchen's jaw tightened, and the words came out of his mouth through gritted teeth.
"Where are the other members of the Huo family?"
The house was on fire, but no servants were seen putting out the fire.
"I don't know, I didn't see anyone when I came here." Chi Yanchen's eyes were gloomy.
Hearing this, Ye Mingqian had no choice but to lower his head and check the safe that he had finally rescued from the fire, and found a thin booklet at the bottom of the box.
"What is this?" She lowered her head and read out the words on it: "Lease contract?"
"What's inside?"
Chi Yanchen also asked with interest.
She briefly glanced at the text inside and sorted out the general meaning.
"It's the Qin family's Central African Coffee Land. Didn't it say it was sold to the Gu family? Why is it listed as rent?"
"Originally, it was renting." A voice suddenly interrupted.
She and Chi Yanchen both looked in the direction of the sound. Qin Luoying was sitting in a wheelchair and slowly walked towards them.
"Luo Luo, please don't run around when the house is in danger. Where is the aunt who takes care of you?"
"have no idea."
Qin Luoying stared at the contract in her hand unblinkingly, "This is my thing, give it back to me."
If she had a nicer tone, Ye Mingqian would really consider giving it to her, but she was rebellious.
"Why do you say it's yours? It's clearly written on it that it's a contract between the Qin family and the Gu family. If you want to give it to the Gu family, it's for the Gu family."
"Brother Chen, help me say something nice to Sister Ye. This thing is of no use to her."
Qin Luoying pitifully asked Chi Yanchen for help.
"Being obedient is of no use to you. Don't remember what happened in your early years."
Chi Yanchen had the patience to talk to her.
"I am the only one left in the Qin family!" Qin Luoying suddenly became emotional, "Shouldn't I remember? If even the Qin family forgets that I am a member of the Qin family, who else will remember?"
"I remember." Chi Yanchen said solemnly.
"No, you don't remember." Qin Luoying raised her little face and said reluctantly with tears on her face: "Brother Chen, ten years ago I would have preferred my father to really sell this land to the Huo family, so that my legs would not It will break, and you and I can continue to grow up together."
"If the Gu family hadn't rented the coffee land in order to make progress, my father would never have thought that one day he would use it to pay off debts. It was the Gu family who had bad intentions and deceived us from the beginning."
