1422 Unexpected Event
Jian Ai couldn’t help but say helplessly, “Uncle doesn’t have to be so polite. I’m studying in the capital. Isn’t it only a matter of time before we meet? Why are you in a hurry?!”
Yang Xiaoman said, “This is different. My father initially thought that he might not be able to thank you in person in this lifetime. In the blink of an eye, two years have passed. You suddenly appeared, and you were in the same dormitory as me. Of course, my father has to see you immediately.”
“If I hadn’t stopped him and said that it wasn’t appropriate for him to suddenly go to school to look for you, he would have gone to school to look for you.”
Jian Ai widened her eyes in fear. “Don’t. I’m a junior. It’s more suitable for me to see Uncle.”
She did not want to attract attention anymore. In the four years, she was at Capital University, she only wanted to be a student and start a career.
Seeing Jian Ai’s reaction, Yang Xiaoman couldn’t help but laugh. “Look, I knew you wouldn’t like it, so I didn’t let him go.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she pushed the menu in the shop to Jian Ai. “Find something that you want to eat. My father spent a lot of money to hire the chef for this main shop. I heard that he even took part in a state banquet before. His culinary skills are excellent.”
Jian Ai raised her eyebrows and nodded. She wondered if the chef’s culinary skills could compare to Chi Yang’s.
After ordering roast duck and four signature dishes, Jian Ai blinked at Yang Xiaoman. “Let’s drink some?”
“At noon?” Yang Xiaoman widened her eyes in surprise. In the next second, she quickly nodded. “Give me a bottle of alcohol!”
The two of them hit it off and had a drink.
The dishes were served. Just as Yang Xiaoman had said, it was the style of a chef. Putting aside the taste, just this appearance was worth the price.
The roast duck was still the same taste in her memory. In her two lifetimes, Jian Ai had never eaten a roast duck better than Yang Ji.
“By the way, Xiao Ai,” Yang Xiaoman suddenly said.
Jian Ai had a slice of roast duck in her mouth and couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows at her. Yang Xiaoman said, “My father always wanted to thank that brother in a suit last time at the police station. If possible, I can bring him to the shop to treat him to a meal.”
“Him?” Jian Ai pursed her lips helplessly. “He’s usually very busy, but I’ll pass on your thanks.”
Yang Xiaoman was talking about Yu Wuyuan. Jian Ai knew that Yu Wuyuan wouldn’t specially come for a meal just to get someone to thank him, so she rejected him on his behalf.
The two of them chatted as they ate. The atmosphere was relaxed and happy for a moment. They quickly finished the bottle, but considering that both of them had classes in the afternoon, they didn’t continue drinking.
“He should be done soon. I’ll go over and look,” Yang Xiaoman said and stood up, letting Jian Ai eat first and wait for her for a while.
Jian Ai said that there was no need to rush Uncle, but Yang Xiaoman had already gone out.
In less than ten seconds, there was a sudden bang, and the entire ground shook. The surrounding glass shattered, and countless fragments flew over.
Jian Ai subconsciously waved her hand and blocked all the fragments.
Everything happened so suddenly that Jian Ai didn’t know what had happened. There was only one word in her mind: Xiaoman!
Without thinking, Jian Ai quickly stood up and rushed out. The hall was in a mess. The customers screamed and ran in all directions. Many of them were injured, and blood could be seen everywhere on the ground!
“Xiaoman!”
“Xiaoman!”
Jian Ai called out loudly but screams instantly drowned her voice. Jian Ai was burning with anxiety, afraid that something would happen to Yang Xiaoman.
Rushing into the crowd, Jian Ai activated her X-ray vision and searched for Yang Xiaoman on a large scale. As she searched, she kept shouting her name!
However, too many people were at Yang Ji’s main shop for lunch. There were dozens of service staff in the shop alone, so the number of customers was naturally a few times more.
Now that a dangerous incident had happened, everyone was like headless flies. Their instinct to escape made everyone rush towards the door immediately. The path was blocked!
Jian Ai was the only one running in. One could imagine the resistance.
A few minutes later, Jian Ai finally saw Yang Xiaoman in the innermost area of the roast duck house with the most damage through her superpower. At this moment, there was already a fire in the roast duck house!
If there was gas inside, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Jian Ai broke through the crowd and ran towards Yang Xiaoman.
“Dad! Dad!”
“Someone help me!”
“Please help me. Save my father!”
At this moment, Yang Xiaoman was squatting on the ground and pulling her father, who was half-pressed down. Father Yang had fallen unconscious and did not react at all.
Yang Xiaoman’s back clothes were also tattered, and the exposed skin was a wound caused by intense friction. It kept bleeding.
It was not difficult to guess that when it happened – Yang Xiaoman was sent flying. She lay on the ground and slid for a long time to have such injuries.
However, she could not care less about herself. Now that her father was under the hanging furnace, she had to save him!
“Xiaoman! Xiaoman!”
Jian Ai rushed forward. The injury on Yang Xiaoman’s back had all her attention but when she ran in, she saw a person under the huge hanging furnace!
It was Uncle Yang!
“Xiao Ai, help me. Help me!” Yang Xiaoman was in a sorry state and cried for Jian Ai’s help.
The hanging furnace looked to be a hundred kilograms. Fortunately, a massive piece of cement cushioned one side and distributed some weight!
Jian Ai quickly calmed herself down. Saving people was the most important thing now. Someone had already called the police outside. Before the police arrives, she had to bring them away from this dangerous place and resolve the safety hazards.
Not far away, there were a few fire extinguishers scattered around. Jian Ai immediately said to Yang Xiaoman, “Xiaoman, get the fire extinguishers. Put out the fire inside first!”
“Xiao Ai, my father. Save my father!” Yang Xiaoman didn’t want to leave. She just wanted to pull her father out.
Jian Ai knew that Yang Xiaoman’s mind was in a mess. She could only say calmly, “Xiaoman, listen to me. There’s no smell of gas here, so it shouldn’t be a gas explosion. However, there’s already a fire in the roast duck house. If there’s a gas pipe here, do you know the consequences? Uncle Yang will be in even more danger. The entire roast duck shop will be affected.”
“Listen to me. Get the fire extinguisher. Spray it out while the fire seed is still young. Leave Uncle Yang to me!”
Yang Xiaoman was already panicking. Jian Ai’s calmness calmed her down a little. She immediately nodded with tears in her eyes and staggered towards the fire extinguisher!
Picking up a fire extinguisher, Yang Xiaoman ran into the blasted roast duck house. Just as Jian Ai had said, there were only a few small fire seeds inside and the fire extinguisher extinguished them with a spray.
Taking advantage of the smoke from the fire extinguisher that blocked Yang Xiaoman’s vision, Jian Ai immediately waved her hand, and the fifty-pound hanging furnace instantly floated up.
With her other hand, she pulled Father Yang out.
