Chapter 2361 Breaking News
The fire was fierce and came without any warning. It started burning vigorously almost at the same time. Flames shot up into the sky and thick smoke billowed. It was extremely thrilling in the dark night.
The whole villa was suddenly in a panic. The officials attending the banquet fled in panic. The servants serving at the banquet were also terrified. They cried and screamed, scrambled to escape, bumped, pushed, and wrestled... it was a mess!
When the banquet in the villa was almost halfway through, in the backyard of the government office, Ruan Lijuan ran to find Qiao Xuan in a panic. She looked panicked and stammered to ask Qiao Xuan to call a doctor to take a look. "My grandma is not feeling well. Madam, please call a doctor. Wuwuwu... Actually, grandma was a little uncomfortable two days ago. She said it was okay and she would be fine in two days... In the past, we always got through minor illnesses and pains at home, so no one took it seriously. Who knew, who knew... wuwuwu..."
Ruan Lijuan cried so hard that she was out of breath and almost knelt down to beg Qiao Xuan.
Qiao Xuan was surprised.
While ordering someone to call a doctor, he comforted her, "Don't worry, I think she's in good health. I think she's fine. The doctor will be here soon. Let's go and see her first."
Mrs. Ruan was old after all, and her family had always lived in poverty. During the turbulent times, life was even harder. It was normal for her to fall ill after sleeping in the open air on this journey.
Qiao Xuan felt a little regretful. She should have thought of this earlier. She should have asked a doctor to examine the old man two days ago. Maybe the problem could have been diagnosed.
After comforting Ruan Lijuan, Qiao Xuan accompanied her to take a look.
In the bedroom, Old Mrs. Ruan was lying on the bed with her eyes closed and her old face full of wrinkles. Ruan Erlang and Mrs. Ding were standing beside her, and both of them looked unhappy.
Seeing Qiao Xuan coming, the two of them hurried forward to greet her.
Qiao Xuan waved her hand and lowered her voice: "No need to be polite, how is the old man?"
Ruan Erlang wiped his eyes and whispered, "I should be fine, I just feel a little uncomfortable... I'm sorry for disturbing the lady."
"You're welcome. I should have come over to take a look." Qiao Xuan smiled and walked forward.
Qiao Xuan came to Old Lady Ruan's bed and looked down. Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in the back of her head. She cried out "Oh no!" and was shocked. Before she could think of anything else, she lost consciousness...
Who could have imagined that this family, who seemed timid and honest, rubbing their hands and looking uneasy when speaking more, actually had bad intentions!
Soon, the fire broke out in the backyard of the government office. There were four fires in the kitchen, two in the garden, and in the side rooms. The scene was really scary. Everyone was panicking to put out the fire. When the fires were all extinguished and fortunately no serious consequences were caused, Caiyue and others who were serving Qiao Xuan suddenly realized that they did not seem to see the lady...
Qiao Xuan woke up slowly, and it was already the next day.
The sunlight shone in through the gaps in the old, heavy wooden windows. In this dark room that smelled strange, dense dust was visible flying in the beams of light.
Qiao Xuan's hands and feet were still able to move, perhaps the people who captured her didn't take her seriously at all.
The ground was cold, so she sat up and breathed a sigh of relief.
I'm not really afraid.
Now her abilities are much stronger than before, and with the space to her benefit, she can easily get away with it.
Now that she calmed down and thought about it, how could Qiao Xuan not know that she had been fooled!
