257 I hope you can be a femme fatale 6
Leng Yejin was jealous. After three rounds of drinks, he naturally did not pester her anymore after dinner. He went straight back to the Leng family manor and threw himself on the bed. The more he thought about it, the more upset he felt!
Tong Lu had some alcohol, so she fell into a deep sleep with Shanshan in her arms. She was in a daze when she choked and woke up. Shanshan was already bawling her eyes out in bed.
Tong Lu’s heart was in her throat. She turned to look out of the window. It was already in flames outside, and thick smoke was billowing.
!!
His mind went blank.
“Mommy, I’m scared. Mommy, I’m scared.”
Shanshan hugged Tong Lu tightly.’When has a child ever been trapped in a fiery apartment?’
Tong Lu paused for a few seconds before she suddenly found her breath again. She hugged the blanket and rushed into the bathroom to wet it. She quickly wrapped the wet blanket around her body and rushed out with Shanshan in her arms.
Who knew that when she opened the door, the railing of the stairs outside had already been burned black. She had never seen such a big fire before, and she was forced to retreat back into the house.
“Mommy, I’m scared of Yingluo, mommy, I’m scared of Yingluo.”
“Shanshan, don’t cry. Yingluo, cough, cough. Yingluo, mommy will think of something.”
mommy, I want daddy. I want daddy. Daddy is Superman.
“Even Superman can’t make it in time.” But was he really unable to make it in time?
A wild thought suddenly flashed across Tong Lu’s mind. She did not dare to let her thoughts run wild, but she had no other choice now. When she heard Shanshan calling him ‘daddy’, she subconsciously took out her phone and called Leng Yejin.
Across the street, the neighbor’s house opened their door and someone rushed out, shouting, ” run upstairs. The fire is burning from downstairs. Run to the roof, quick!
Tong Lu could no longer care if anyone was picking up the phone. Without another word, she wrapped herself in a wet blanket and rushed upstairs with the neighbor. The corridor was filled with smoke and fire. She choked on her food and burst into tears.
“Shanshan, hold Yingluo tight, cough cough, Yingluo, hold mommy’s neck, Yingluo.”
Shanshan grabbed the phone and suddenly burst into tears. daddy, save me! Daddy, save me! Wuwu! Daddy, save me!
Leng Yejin was awoken from his sleep by the phone. “What’s wrong with Shanshan? don’t cry and speak slowly.”
“Fire, fire, I’m scared, daddy is scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared, scared
“Get your mother on the phone.” Leng Yejin suddenly stood up. He put on his slippers and asked, ” “The apartment building is on fire, Wuwu”
‘Damn it!’ Leng Yejin’s heart clenched when he heard those words. He did not have time to ask anything else. He strode toward the balcony and disappeared into the night. In the dark, he saw the apartment building that was on fire. His heart was in his throat. He had forgotten how to react. All he wanted to know was where they were in the burning apartment building.
Tong Lu, tell me where you are now.
I don’t know, cough, cough. I’m going upstairs. I’m going upstairs. just as she said that, the slippers under her feet started to burn. She couldn’t put it out even if she stomped on them. In a hurry, she didn’t think of throwing off the slippers. She ran up the stairs barefooted. The soles of her feet were so hot that she screamed, ” ah, cough, cough.
Tong Lu gritted her teeth and forced herself not to slow down. Otherwise, she would either be burned to death or poisoned to death by the smoke she inhaled. Shanshan, in particular, could not take the poisonous smoke!
A shrill scream came from the other end of the phone. Leng Yejin felt as if his heart was about to break into pieces. He rushed into a sea of fire. The heat was overwhelming. He had no idea which floor she was on. The smoke was too thick, and the noise was too muffled. He pricked up his ears, but he could not hear her voice.
“Don’t stop talking.”
“I’ll be poisoned to death if I talk.” As soon as Tong Lu finished speaking, she shrieked in pain again. She gritted her teeth and was about to stomp on the ground again when her body was lifted into the air.
