Zhou Tianyu and Xu Tongxuan were paying attention to the fire scene while reading the news reports about it online . Although they were the victims, they were unaware of the details of the situation .
The reporters were rather efficient and within just a short period of time, numerous reports about the fire were already published online .
Some of the reporters gathered at the fire scene . Some were paying attention to the firefighters who were rescuing the victims and putting out the fire, while some were focused on the injuries of the casualties . There were even some who were focused on the victims’ feelings of grief and agony .
However, the most crucial of it all was the cause of the fire . One of the reporters interviewed the relevant personnel who claimed that the fire broke out in the washroom on the sixth floor . The building was used for hotel and club businesses and hence, there were numerous patrons . In the washroom of the sixth floor, there were numerous stacks of clothing and bedsheets, all of which would catch on fire easily . Besides, they would also cause the fire to spread rapidly . On top of that, the sofas and beds were all made of wood and hence, a fire would be uncontrollable .
To make matters worse, the fire had already spread to the fifth floor when Wen Xinya found out .
However, the fire had already stopped spreading and Zhou Tianyu felt a sense of relief . She suddenly grabbed Xu Tongxuan’s hand and asked, “Xuanxuan, look over there . Is that Xinya?”
Xu Tongxuan frantically looked in the direction that Zhou Tianyu was pointing at . Due to the fire rescue, the street lamps were all brightly lit and glaring . Hence, she could not see anything clearly . However, she could see the green figure moving around nimbly and suavely .
His dashing and domineering aura was indeed enviable .
At this moment, he was carrying Wen Xinya in his arms together with Han Mofeng, who was carrying Du Ruo . Ling Qingxuan and Gu Junling were by his side too .
Xu Tongxuan’s anxiety immediately faded and she said in surprise, “Tianyu, they’re alright . ”
Zhou Tianyu was over the moon too . She held onto Xu Tongxuan’s hand and received them .
“Xinya!”
Wen Xinya immediately got Si Yiyan to put her down after hearing Zhou Tianyu call her name .
Si Yiyan decided not to insist on carrying her because he knew that she was not injured .
Zhou Tianyu immediately hugged Wen Xinya and began sobbing . She exclaimed, “Xinya, are you alright? Did you get hurt?”
Wen Xinya shook her head and said in a dry and hoarse voice, “I’m alright . Fortunately, Yan arrived in time . I only inhaled some smoke which made my throat feel uncomfortable . ”
Wen Xinya still did not forget to praise Si Yiyan and put in a good word for him in front of her friends .
Xu Tongxuan also held onto Du Ruo’s hand to show her some concern . Du Ruo seemed to be in a poorer state than Wen Xinya and was laying feebly in Han Mofeng’s arms .
Everyone felt a sense of relief after checking up on each other .
Ling Qingxuan laughed and said, “Fortunately, everyone is alright and it was just a false alarm . ”
Si Yiyan apologized . “I’m so sorry . If it weren’t because of our arranged meeting, you guys wouldn’t have met with such an ordeal . ”
He had already been feeling guilty enough for being late and indirectly causing them to be caught in a fire .
As soon as Si Yiyan finished speaking, Wen Xinya frantically explained . “It was my fault too . You’ve just returned to Russia and you’re still very busy . If it weren’t because of my impatience, this wouldn’t have happened . ”
Since her friends were already upset with Si Yiyan for being late, she could not allow him to shoulder all the blame .
Si Yiyan’s sincere apology and Wen Xinya’s defense caused her friends to be amused, for they had long gotten used to Wen Xinya acting all calm and composed . They had never seen her this meek before .
Zhou Tianyu burst into laughter and said, “In that case, we’re also to blame for asking you two to meet us officially as a couple . If it weren’t because of the pressure that I kept giving Xinya, she wouldn’t have been so impatient and this wouldn’t have happened today . ”
Actually, they had never once spoken to Si Yiyan before, but one glance at him was enough to make them feel impressed and admire him .
Besides, Zhou Tianyu was thoroughly impressed by his brave decision to rescue Wen Xinya without considering his own safety .
Xu Tongxuan chimed in . “Tianyu is right . Life is full of uncertainties and we couldn’t have been able to predict this beforehand . How can we put the blame on you? We’re not that petty, don’t get the wrong idea about us . ”
Xu Tongxuan was also in awe of Si Yiyan . As the eldest daughter of the Xu Family, she grew up accompanying her grandfather in the police department . Hence, she had sharp senses and good judgment of people .
Du Ruo decided to give everyone an out . “Fortunately, we’re all alright . That’s a huge blessing . ”
However, Du Ruo seemed to be scanning Si Yiyan from head to toe while speaking . At last, she deduced that Wen Xinya was very compatible with Si Yiyan .
She knew that her friends were understanding and felt relieved that they did not put her in a spot .
Si Yiyan heaved a sigh of relief, for he was actually rather worried about Wen Xinya’s friends and afraid that they would be displeased with him because of everything that happened . After all… he had indeed messed up and made various blunders today .
At this moment, Gu Junling laughed and said, “Don’t think that you can forgo this meal with just an apology . ”
Gu Junling was fascinated by his ability to remain calm during a crisis and his bravery to risk his life in order to rescue Wen Xinya . None of them were displeased with him at all .
His character would be proven over a few drinks .
However, they finally witnessed his nature and personality after the ordeal .
Ling Qingxuan chimed in . “You were late today and we agreed to punish you by making you drink 300 glasses of wine . ”
Even Han Mofeng, who was displeased with Si Yiyan because of Xu Zhenyu, stood quietly by the side without showing any signs of unhappiness .
Si Yiyan said with a genuine smile, “You guys asked me out for a meal out of sincerity . However, Heaven did not let us have our wishes . Let’s pick another auspicious date for a meal . ”
Gu Junling and the other two men were more gracious than the girls . They did not take Si Yiyan for an outsider at all, which was to Si Yiyan’s pleasure . He respected Wen Xinya’s friends and hence, was glad to gain their recognition .
They cheered merrily .
Si Yiyan said, “I’ve already arranged for cars to send you guys to the hospital . You may not have any injuries, but it’s inevitable that you inhaled some thick smoke . It’s better to go for a checkup in the hospital . ”
No one had any objections because his arrangements were appropriate .
