Chapter 216 The Worst Result

When Jiang Wanning and "Shadow" returned to the Star Lord Hotel, the area had been blocked off by barricades pulled up by the local police.

The headset on "Shadow"'s side also recovered after the aftermath of the explosion.

It was indeed as the two had guessed before, except for a small number of people who were still out of contact, most of the others that Jiang Wenzhou had arranged here were fine.

Upon seeing this, "Shadow" followed Jiang Wanning's previous request and gave instructions to his subordinates one by one.

Afterwards, their car slowly drove to the front door of the hotel, and was stopped by someone as expected.

The patrolling police waved their hands, signaling them not to join in the fun.

Seeing this, Jiang Wanning exchanged a glance with Shadow, who rolled down the car window, smirked, and said hello to the police officer across the street. "Excuse me, my sister and I have reservations at this hotel, and it's almost time for dinner. Could you please tell me what happened up there?"

Perhaps because the "shadow" looked young and his face was not very aggressive, the police officer in charge of guarding him immediately believed what he said.

"You youngsters are really careless, aren't you? There was such a big commotion over here just now, didn't you see it?"

The middle-aged policeman clicked his tongue a little. "There was an explosion here just now. There are serious injuries inside. The source of the explosion has not been clearly identified. There may be a second explosion. Since you two are lucky to have missed it, you should get away from it as soon as possible!"

"Okay, thank you, officer!"

After "Shadow" agreed, he turned around and drove the car to the side of the hotel where the police presence was weak.

He raised his hand to help Jiang Wanning out of the car, and at the same time he heard the news coming from the headset: "Miss, our people went to check on the group of injured people who were just taken out of the hotel, and they didn't see the two young masters."

While the two were talking, they had already walked from the corner of the street to the main scene of the explosion.

Even though Jiang Wanning was mentally prepared, she was still shocked by the scene before her.

Jiang Wanning had stayed here about two hours ago. The hotel, which looked magnificent and grand, no longer existed. It was destroyed by a bomb and turned into ruins.

Looking at the extent of the damage to the tall building, it was not difficult for the two to guess how terrifying the amount of explosives deployed there was at that time.

The situation was actually worse than Jiang Wanning and the others had initially imagined.

"Miss..." Shadow hesitated and spoke, "According to your instructions, our people have already thoroughly surveyed this area... but unfortunately, they were unable to find the whereabouts of the Young Master and Mr. Xie."

At this point, the boy even didn't dare to look at the expression on Jiang Wanning's face.

He hesitated for a long time before speaking again: "You have seen it too, buildings that have collapsed after being bombed to this extent..."

If you are accidentally trapped in it, there is no possibility of survival.

He didn't mention the word "shadow" in the following sentence, but with Jiang Wanning's intelligence, how could she not hear the implied meaning in his words?

But at this moment, she really couldn't accept it.

Even though she had prepared herself for the worst on her way here.

Now she regrets it very much. If only she had not agreed to Chen Haishu's request that night.

Although that was really cold, if she had done that, would the explosion today have not happened?

Wouldn't she also not lose Jiang Wenzhou...

What's more, I won't lose Xie Yanchuan, right?

fraud.

I clearly told her not to worry, everything will be fine.

Jiang Wanning felt a dry feeling in her throat, and her fingertips trembled uncontrollably.

Because she had walked for a while, her hands and feet, which were injured in the car accident, were very painful at this time, but what hurt even more was her heart, which was twitching.

The "shadow" was watching her from the side. For a moment, he seemed to be enveloped by great sadness and fell into silence for a while, not daring to say anything.

What also surprised "Shadow" was that

Jiang Wanning didn't cry. She just stood there for a while, quietly waiting for the last wave of people who investigated the scene to come back and pass on the news. After confirming that there was no hope of detour, her eyes darkened completely.

Her long, narrow eyelashes cast deep shadows on her eyelids in the darkening sky.

After a while, he spoke again, his voice husky. "There may be a second explosion at the scene. Shadow, tell your men to evacuate as soon as possible."

"Then Miss, we also..."

Although this is cruel, if Jiang Wenzhou is really gone.

Jiang Wanning must not fall again. Jiang Qingyan has little contact with the company. As another important member of the Jiang family, she must adjust her mentality as soon as possible so that she can work with the other party to stabilize the Jiang family, which has just escaped from the dire situation and is about to fall into chaos.

Otherwise, the building will collapse, and those who are plotting against them in secret may start partying tonight.

Jiang Wanning had never felt the burden on her shoulders so heavy as it was at this moment.

She fluttered her eyelashes and remained silent for a long time. Then, as if all her strength had been drained away, she softly replied, "Well, let's go..."

After saying this, she took off her crutches, turned her back to "Shadow", and limped towards the opposite direction of the hotel.

I don’t know if it was the illusion of the “shadow”, but at that moment, Jiang Wanning’s entire soul seemed to be pulled out of the world, leaving only an empty shell.

Although he didn't seem to have any emotions, he seemed to be so sad that he seemed to have been abandoned by the whole world.

…

Jiang Wanning forced herself to return to the Jiang family, not even knowing how she had handed over the meeting to Jiang Qingyan.

She only remembered that after the other person sighed, her eyes went dark and she fainted.

Her old injury had not yet healed, and this stimulation caused her to develop a high fever that night.

In a daze, Jiang Wanning seemed to have had a very long dream.

In the dream, she seemed to be a child when her grandmother was still alive. She always chased after her grandmother's legs and played with several children from the neighborhood.

It's like there is a child who is always bullied by another child and keeps crying.

Jiang Wanning always protected that person behind her, and at first she couldn't see the face clearly.

Until midnight, she suddenly woke up from her dream, and a tear suddenly rolled down the corner of her eye.

Jiang Wanning only then realized it and matched the blurry face with another person in her memory, overlapping them perfectly.

...It turned out to be Xie Yanchuan.
