"I...I don't know. Nan Nan told me to go find someone, and when I came back, this place was on fire..."
Over there, Gu Yibei was choked by the thick smoke as soon as he entered the fire. He covered his mouth and nose and searched for Ji Zhinan's figure in the thick smoke.
Knowing he had excellent hearing, Gu Yibei immediately turned his head to look in the direction of the sound.
The smoke was so thick that you couldn't see anyone at all until they got close enough to make out their figures.
Li Yuan unbuttoned his cuffs and rolled up his sleeves, revealing his beautifully shaped wrist bones and his well-defined, slender fingers.
His white shirt was a little dirty and messy, but it didn't stop him from showing off his physique. The thin layer covered his strong body, and you could vaguely see his well-defined abs and smooth lines. He paired it with versatile black pants, which perfectly outlined his good waistline and straight long legs.
Even though he was already in his early forties and had lived more than half his life, he lived a refined life. His face was so well-maintained that he looked like he was only in his early thirties. This was the first time that the usually aloof Mr. Ling Yin Warrens had ever been so disheveled.
Gu Yibei immediately spotted Ji Zhinan in Li Yuan's arms. Ji Zhinan had already fainted, and Li Yuan's coat covered her body.
This is the first time the two men have met. Ling Yin Warrens, the patriarch of the Warrens family, who sits firmly in the top aristocracy in Europe, meets Gu Yibei, who is young and has already made a name for himself in the business world and is the youngest person on the Forbes rich list. It is a clash of ice and fire.
However, Gu Yibei looked away after only three seconds of eye contact, not out of fear, but because of the woman in Li Yuan's arms.
Looking at the current state of his once beautiful and delicate little girl, Gu Yibei felt a strange mix of emotions.
If it weren't Li Yuan holding Ji Zhinan right now, Gu Yibei would have already snatched her back and held her himself.
Suppressing the urge to steal his father-in-law's daughter, Gu Yibei said in a deep voice, "Get out of here."
Li Yuan did not reply, but carried Ji Zhinan and followed Gu Yibei away from the scene.
Outside, the huge explosion shocked the nearby residents. Some people saw thick smoke rising from the area and immediately called the fire department. Firefighters arrived with professional equipment to put out the fire. Shirakawa calmly instructed his bodyguards to cooperate with the firefighters in the rescue work.
Xing Fei was injured, and Bai Chuan had two bodyguards take her to the hospital first. Although Xing Fei was extremely unwilling, she was no match for the bodyguards' strength and was taken away directly.
Shirakawa and Charleson kept their eyes fixed on the exit, anxiously waiting for their husbands to arrive.
Finally, the men's figures came into view. Gu Yibei was the first to come out, followed closely by Li Yuan.
“Sir!” Shirakawa and Charleson said in unison.
"Bai Chuan, go get the car!" Gu Yibei immediately gave the order without delay.
"Okay." Bai Chuan immediately turned and ran towards the Rolls-Royce. Gu Yibei opened the back door and tried to pick up Ji Zhinan, but Li Yuan didn't even look at him, let alone hand over his precious daughter.
Gu Yibei was the first to compromise: "Bai Chuan is a steady driver, so having him drive will save time and be safer."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuan carried Ji Zhinan into the car, with Gu Yibei following closely behind.
The car started immediately and drove away.
Inside the car, Gu Yibei took out his phone and quickly found Qin Yu's number.
"Go to the First People's Hospital."
Qin Yu's hospital.
The call connected, and Gu Yibei cut to the chase without any preamble: "Qin Yu, make the arrangements immediately..."
