"I heard there's a fire?"
"Mm, the fire is very high!"
"How terrible. Are so many children okay?"
"It's a good orphanage. Why would it be on fire?"
Wen Tiantian stopped and turned her head.
This place is near the western suburbs, the Morninglight Orphanage is not far away!
"Where did you say there was a fire?"
The few of them turned around and pointed at the fiery light that soared into the sky.
"The orphanage."
Wen Tiantian raised her head to look at the direction of her finger and her face instantly turned pale!
In the direction of the Morninglight Orphanage, flames shot into the sky!
Wen Tiantian's body shuddered as she ran in that direction.
As she ran, she noticed that many people were looking in the direction of the orphanage.
Some people were talking about the dead and wounded, while others were worrying about when they would be able to extinguish the fire.
But Lili didn't hear him.
The item in her hand had long since been thrown somewhere, and she ran in that direction like a madman.
There were many people surrounding the Morninglight Orphanage, and before they could even get close, Wen Tiantian already felt the light of fire shooting towards the sky!
Wen Tiantian couldn't help but take a step back when the heat wave hit her face. She saw a lot of firemen putting out fire.
Huge jets of water hit the walls of the orphanage, but the water was nothing compared to the intensity of the fire.
Even if several pipes worked at the same time, they wouldn't be able to reduce the fire in the slightest.
Wen Tiantian rushed over and grabbed the bystanders.
"Where are the people inside? You saved him? Have the 23 children, the dean, and the employees been rescued? "
The man shook his head.
"I don't know. I heard the fire developed very quickly and soon enveloped the orphanage. "The person inside …"
Wen Tiantian's heart instantly turned cold when she heard this.
Just then, another person explained, "He's been saved! I just saw them take the kids to the hospital. "
Wen Tiantian hurriedly turned her head to look at the person who had just spoken.
His mood immediately turned from sadness to joy.
"They were all saved?"
The man nodded and sighed regretfully.
"It's a pity, but the fire is too fierce. Before the fire brigade arrived, it was already set ablaze. "Those kids were all carried out by the dean one by one, but in the end …"
Halfway through her sentence, she shook her head.
"What a sin."
As if struck by lightning, Wen Tiantian almost couldn't stand steadily.
"The dean hasn't come out yet …" "The dean hasn't come out yet …"
She rushed towards the orphanage.
"President!" "Dean!"
she screamed, trying to get in.
As soon as she burst out of the fire, she was stopped by the firemen.
"Miss, don't be like this. We are experiencing fire suppression!"
Wen Tiantian pulled him back.
"The dean is still inside!" "The president of the orphanage!"
Wen Tiantian struggled, but was blocked by the firefighters.
She had been brought up by the Headmaster and had always treated the Headmaster as her only family.
She had planned to leave the orphanage behind and renovate it to accommodate more children.
However, before she could complete all of this, she already …
Tears welled up in his eyes. Before they could land on the ground, they were already dried up by the flames.
Wen Tiantian, who was waiting for the scarlet flame in front of her, burst into tears.
"Dean —"
"Some of the firemen couldn't hold her back." Miss, this will affect the rescue work. "
They pulled Wen Tiantian out and forbade her to come any closer.
Wen Tiantian sat limply on the ground.
The crackling sounds of burning flames, the sound of flowing water, and the voices of the surrounding people all entered his ears.
Every scene from the orphanage once again appeared in his mind.
Wen Tiantian hugged her knees as she sat on the ground and wailed.
She wanted to protect the orphanage. She wanted to protect the dean. She wanted to protect her everything.
But now, it was gone.
All gone …
Tears rolled down his face.
Wen Tiantian sat at the back of the crowd, crying like a child.
Someone in the crowd slowly approached her.
"Do you want to know why the orphanage was on fire?"
A voice suddenly sounded from behind him.
Wen Tiantian froze for a second and turned around abruptly.
A man in black clothes and a hat was quickly leaving.
Wen Tiantian's heart skipped a beat when she thought of that sentence.
Principal Chen had always been very careful. How could he suddenly catch a fire?
Everything around here had been dismantled, so it was impossible for them to be implicated.
The only possibility was that someone had set a fire!
She was scared out of her wits by her guess. She quickly stood up, gritted her teeth, and chased after the figure.
The black shadow ran very fast. Wen Tiantian chased after him and soon left the crowd.
This area was bought by Jiang Family and was going to be used as a villa. All the houses nearby had already been demolished, making it extremely desolate.
The more Wen Tiantian thought about it, the more suspicious she felt. She followed him to a pile of ruins.
On the other side, Min Ann'ge, who just left the museum, heard the news of a fire in Morninglight Orphanage and hurried over.
As soon as he arrived, he saw Wen Tiantian's back before he even got close to her.
Instead of going to the orphanage, she ran in the other direction.
Min Ann'ge looked at her doubtfully, changed his direction and followed her out.
When the news of the orphanage's fire spread throughout the capital, Ji Jingchen's car slowly stopped in front of the museum.
After waiting for a while, he realized that it was getting late and that Wen Tiantian still hadn't come out. He was ready to personally go in and capture her.
The moment he got off the car, he met Elder Peng, who was walking out.
He looked around but didn't see Wen Tiantian.
"Where's my wife?"
Elder Peng glanced at him. Originally, he didn't like Ji Jingchen, so he wanted to ignore him and leave.
However, when he thought of how he was still the husband of his disciple, he snappily replied, "I'm going back."
"As her husband, you don't even know when she's coming home?"
Ji Jingchen frowned.
"You just asked the butler. She didn't go back."
"How is this possible?"
Elder Peng looked at him in dissatisfaction, " Do you still think that I'm lying to you? "
Seeing Ji Jingchen's suspicious gaze, he was so angry that he opened his eyes wide.
"Why would I lie to you?"
As the two of them were talking, the conductor standing at the door suddenly asked, "Elder Peng, are you asking about Miss Jiang?"
Elder Peng turned around and saw her, so he quickly pulled the witness.
"You've been here all along. You should have seen her leave long ago, right?"
That person nodded and said, "Miss Jiang did come out, but the moment she heard the orphanage was on fire, she ran over."
She pointed at the flames that soared to the sky diagonally, somewhat puzzled.
"It looks like she's in a hurry and lost everything."
With these words, she brought out a box, which was the toolbox Wen Tiantian usually used.
