After Wang Zhiqiang hung up the phone, a thoughtful look appeared on his face.
Seeing this, He Lirong couldn't help but worry.
"Hubby, do you think Mingxue is in trouble?"
Wang Zhiqiang was silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head to express his denial.
"I don't think so. If she really had something wrong, she wouldn't behave like this."
He Lirong continued in confusion, "But this phone call was so strange. I still think she's hiding something from us."
"Also, are you really not going to the project?"
Wang Zhiqiang smiled bitterly.
"You don't even know your own daughter. With her temper, if you don't do what you promised her, she will definitely make a big fuss at home."
Wang Zhiqiang sighed and continued, "Okay, let's listen to her. It won't delay things if we discuss the project for a couple of days."
"Call the company and ask them to explain it to the other party."
"Also, call Mingchen and Mingyu and ask if Mingxue has told them anything. I'll ask the driver to bring back all the luggage."
After He Lirong had arranged the company's affairs, she and Aunt Chen packed their luggage. Suddenly, there was a loud explosion.
At this moment, there was a sudden loud "bang" and it felt like the whole room shook.
He Lirong was frightened by the sudden explosion. Her hands shook and the clothes she was holding fell to the ground in an instant.
Aunt Shen quickly walked to the window to check.
Looking through the window, I saw thick smoke billowing in the distance, like a giant black dragon rushing straight into the sky.
"Madam, it looks like there was an explosion in the south. There is thick smoke over there now." Aunt Shen said anxiously.
He Lirong, who had just picked up her clothes, immediately dropped what she was holding and hurried to the window after hearing this.
When she saw the thick smoke clearly, her face became very solemn.
She turned around and rushed downstairs without hesitation, and happened to meet Wang Zhiqiang who was returning from outside the yard.
"Honey, was there an explosion in the direction of the train station?" He Lirong's voice was full of worry and tension.
Wang Zhiqiang walked into the living room and sat down slowly.
"The noise seems to be correct. I have already sent the driver over to get information."
Although his tone was calm, there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
He Lirong sat down next to Wang Zhiqiang, feeling increasingly uneasy.
"Husband, if we hadn't received Mingxue's call just now, would we be in that dangerous direction now?"
Possible horrible scenarios kept appearing in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.
Wang Zhiqiang held He Lirong's hand soothingly.
"Don't let your imagination run wild. Aren't we all fine now? Besides, even if we were going in the direction we were going, it wouldn't be such a coincidence that we bumped into each other."
Despite Wang Zhiqiang's comfort, He Lirong was still frightened. She held Wang Zhiqiang's hand and waited quietly for the driver to come back.
He Lirong was still frightened. She held Wang Zhiqiang's hand and waited quietly for the driver to come back.
After a while, the driver Qian Xiang came back quickly.
He said with a look of relief, "Sir, Madam, there was an oil tanker leaking oil on Xiangyang Road, which caused the explosion. A large area of the houses over there collapsed."
Qian Xiang wiped the sweat from his face and continued, "Luckily we didn't go out just now. I roughly calculated the time. If we had set out just now, we would have almost reached Xiangyang Road. Mr. and Mrs. are really blessed to have escaped this disaster."
Wang Zhiqiang felt He Lirong's trembling hands and comforted her gently.
"Wife, look, we are all safe and sound now, so just relax and stop thinking about those unnecessary things."
"How about this, I'll ask Auntie Shen to make you some soothing soup, and you can rest for a while, okay?"
Wang Zhiqiang gently comforted He Lirong, then frowned.
"The tanker truck exploded, and there must have been heavy casualties around us. We were lucky enough to escape, thanks to God's grace. I'll contact the company's finance department and ask them to prepare a batch of supplies and send them to the scene as soon as possible. We'll help as much as we can."
He is fully aware of the severity of the disaster and hopes to provide some help to the best of his ability.
However, He Lirong held Wang Zhiqiang tightly as he turned to leave.
"Hubby, donate more money. Also, let Qianxiang keep an eye on things outside. Don't forget what Mingxue said. You can't go out today."
There was a hint of anxiety in her voice, but more of concern.
Wang Zhiqiang responded with a smile: "I know, don't worry, honey."
"And don't pack your luggage, we're going to Qing City to see Mingxue tomorrow."
After Wang Mingxue finished calling her parents, she felt particularly relaxed.
When she turned to look at Zhou Xiaofang's half-smile, a moment of embarrassment flashed across her face.
She realized that her behavior on the phone just now might be a little different, but she quickly adjusted her mood and tried to hide her inner uneasiness.
She then pretended nothing had happened and resumed her image as a strong, independent woman.
"Ahem, well... I still have things to do. Xiaofang, you should go first. I'll come find you after get off work."
Wang Mingxue tried her best to keep her voice calm, but Zhou Xiaofang keenly caught a hint of unnaturalness in her tone.
Zhou Xiaofang has known Wang Mingxue for many years. She has witnessed her countless moments of perseverance, as well as her embarrassment when she encountered various difficulties.
However, over the years, she had never seen Wang Mingxue act like a spoiled little girl like she did today.
This made Zhou Xiaofang feel curious and surprised.
Wang Mingxue always kept silent about her family situation, only occasionally mentioning that her parents did not want her to go out to work, but wanted her to stay at home and wait to get married.
Zhou Xiaofang looked at Wang Mingxue and smiled deeply.
It seems that she still has a lot of things to reveal to herself.
Faced with the malicious smile on Zhou Xiaofang's face, Wang Mingxue chose to turn a blind eye and quickly left the office.
Originally, Zhou Xiaofang planned to capture Wang Mingxue and interrogate her thoroughly, but then she thought, given Wang Mingxue's personality, if she didn't want to talk, then she must have something to hide.
Besides, these things shouldn't have much impact on the relationship between them. In that case, let it go.
Su Muxi and her family returned to Zhou Xiaofang's dormitory. After Su Muli practiced the song several times in the room, he couldn't wait to turn on the TV.
Seeing that everyone was watching TV intently, Su Muxi didn't disturb anyone and walked to the stairs alone.
Not long after, the female ghost in the white dress appeared in Su Muxi's sight.
Su Muxi quietly followed the female ghost and came to the rooftop on the fourth floor.
