Bo Yunshen took a deep breath, pushed Lin Man away, and said in a low voice, "Manman, go to a safe place first."
With that, he helped Lin Man steady herself and started walking toward Bai Le n’s entrance.
Lin Man froze.
Instinctively, she glanced at the expansive entertainnt venue. When they ca out earlier, the fire was still under control, but now, looking again, the entire building—every window—was spewing black smoke.
In comparison, the second floor was devoid of flas, but that only made it more terrifying!
Lin Man clenched her fingers so tightly that her nails dug deep into her flesh. Pressing her lips together, she rushed forward and wrapped her arms tightly around Bo Yunshen’s lean waist.
"Yunshen, where are you going?"
"Don’t leave, I’m scared, I’m not feeling well... Can you take to the hospital instead?!"
Lin Man’s eyes widened, her teary gaze shimring as though she was about to break into sobs.
Bo Yunshen’s brows furrowed slightly.
He truly didn’t believe Qin Yan, who cherished herself so much, would really let herself get into trouble, right?
The pressing issue now was Manman!
She had always been sensible, but having gone through sothing like this, she might really be hurt or shaken.
Bo Yunshen licked his lips, reached out, and pried Lin Man’s hands away. His lashes flickered slightly:
"Manman, Qin Yan ca with ; I need to take her back too!"
"The employees of Bo Group said they haven’t seen Qin Yan. I’ll go and take a look..."
Lin Man’s pupils contracted fiercely. "Yunshen, what if Yanyan isn’t inside?"
"Yunshen, the fire inside is too intense. Don’t go in!"
"Besides, the fire departnt is already here now. Maybe they’ve already found Yanyan?!"
But all of these are maybes, aren’t they?
If Qin Yan really encountered sothing terrible here, how would he explain it to the old man?
Under pressure from circumstances, the entire world now believed Qin Yinyin was his daughter. If Qin Yan died, in the future, her daughter would beco Bo Yunshen’s first heir!
That woman—the one who doted on that little brat—if she ended up taking her own life inside, wouldn’t he suffer a huge loss?!
Even their household registration docunts, the marital status column, would need to be altered for Qin Yan twice!
Once for "married," once for "widowed!"
Qin Yan wouldn’t get her way!
If there were to be any changes, it should be for "divorced!"
Bo Yunshen’s expression turned inscrutable as he stared straight at Lin Man: "I’ll just take a quick look. Don’t worry. Once I’m out, I’ll take you to the hospital!"
Lin Man, her eyes misty with unshed tears, held onto Bo Yunshen’s arm tightly, her nails pressing deeply into his flesh.
"Yunshen, do you..."
Love Yanyan?
Lin Man’s heart contracted sharply, but before she could ask the question, Bo Yunshen had already turned around. Just as he was about to move, a fist swung at him from out of nowhere.
The blow landed heavily on his face.
Caught completely off guard, pain erupted on his left cheek, and his body staggered back several steps.
"Yunshen!"
Lin Man instinctively reached out to steady Bo Yunshen, turning to glare at the attacker, her voice sharp with dissatisfaction:
"Mr. Lu, what do you think you’re doing?!"
"If I’m not mistaken, you’re the Director of Bo’s Public Relations Departnt, aren’t you? How can you assault your own boss?!"
Assault?
Lu Yi sneered, unceremoniously yanking Lin Man away. His gaze darkened as he stared at Bo Yunshen.
"Where’s Qin Yan?!"
Bo Yunshen extended his hand, wiping his lips, his fingertips sared with crimson.
The intensity of Lu Yi’s punch was evident from the blood on his finger!
He raised his head to et Lu Yi’s gaze.
His shirt, likely Armani’s latest design, was scorched to the point that it revealed his lean waist and its original color was unrecognizable.
His pale face was smudged with black soot, making him look as though he had just erged from the flas.
Bo Yunshen sharply caught onto Lu Yi’s words.
Qin Yan was still inside?
For Qin Yan again, his dear cousin wouldn’t even hesitate to get physical with him?!
Bo Yunshen’s lips curled into a sneer.
How wonderful!
He had really underestimated Qin Yan’s ability to seduce n!
"How would I know?"
"Director Lu, are you barking up the wrong tree?"
He clenched his teeth, furious, and spat out those sharp words.
Lu Yi narrowed his eyes, stepped forward, and grabbed Bo Yunshen by the collar with his large hands:
"Don’t play dumb with . Xiao Shen said she saw you follow Yanyan into the bathroom on the second floor!"
"Neither Yanyan nor you went up to the third-floor restaurant!"
"Tell , why did you co out, but Yanyan didn’t?!"
Yanyan!
A dangerous glint flickered across Bo Yunshen’s face.
Now, his dear cousin wasn’t even bothering to hide his covetousness toward Mrs. Bo?
He pressed a single hand against Lu Yi’s shoulder and shoved him forcefully backward.
"Qin Yan is my wife. Where I am with her, and what I’m doing, doesn’t seem to require an explanation to you, Cousin!"
"And besides, in what capacity are you questioning ?!"
Lu Yi glared venomously at Bo Yunshen.
He detested the smugness on Bo Yunshen’s face—the way he had Qin Yan’s devotion yet never knew how to cherish her!
With a gravelly voice, he spat out his words one by one: "Bo Yunshen, one day, you’ll regret this!"
Bo Yunshen had no desire to waste ti talking with Lu Yi. He pushed past him and strode into Bai Le n’s entrance.
Lu Yi, unwilling to back down, took a step forward. Then, soone who had remained nearly invisible until now—Lin Man—suddenly called out to him.
There hadn’t been much interaction between the two, and Lu Yi, preoccupied with Qin Yan, had no intention of engaging.
But Lin Man spoke up: "I know where Qin Yan is."
Lu Yi paused, turned around, and looked at Lin Man. The woman stood by Bai Le n’s entrance, her dress spotless and untainted by ash, resembling a peony blooming elegantly in the wind!
anwhile, Qin Yan remained unaccounted for, with no word of her fate!
Lu Yi stared at Lin Man sharply, his gaze piercing. He said nothing, but his eyes were focused intently on her.
The latter seed indifferent to Lu Yi’s attitude and spoke softly: "Yanyan is in the bathroom at the far end on the left side of the second floor!"
"Why should I believe you?!"
Lu Yi licked his lips, his expression tinged with a trace of darkness: "Miss Lin, you don’t seem to get along with Yanyan, do you? If Yanyan dies in this Bai Le n disaster, you’d likely be the one person delighted by it!"
"Director Lu, I’m not as vile as you think!"
Lin Man brushed back her long hair, revealing smooth, rounded earlobes. Her lips curved downward as she said quietly: "When Yunshen brought out by jumping from the second-floor bathroom, I saw her."
"She appeared to have fainted."
Lu Yi froze, and Lin Man continued with a laugh: "You’re mistaken. The person who most wants Yanyan to die... is Yunshen, not !"
"What did you say?"
Lin Man repeated herself, then added: "Director Lu, if you’ve got ti to waste bickering with here, I’d suggest you hurry up. With the fire spreading so fast, who knows if Yanyan will still be alive in the next second?!"
