Chapter 464 Xia Ningxi Didn't Come Out
In the darkness, the firelight flickered and spread to every corner, and the thick smoke completely extinguished the light in the already dim surroundings.
The pungent smell filled every corner, startling the people around who scattered in all directions!
Seeing a group of people rushing towards them, Xia Luoluo didn't care about Xia Wanwan's life or death. She let go of the wheelchair and dodged to the side against a stone pillar. This was bad for Xia Wanwan, who was knocked to the ground by the rampaging group of people...
Several screams rang out as someone stepped on Xia Wanwan, causing her to cry out in agony.
Those behind couldn't see what was in front of them at all; they only knew it was a passageway. They ran forward one by one, only to bump into the wheelchair that had overturned on the ground. The group fell down one after another like a human pyramid.
"Miss, Xia Wanwan is over there." A man whispered from the crowd.
Surrounded by a group of people, Han Youling asked, "Where is Huo Nanxiao?"
"It seems they're still backstage," the man replied.
Han Youling said, "Our target is Huo Nanxiao. As for Xia Wanwan, let her suffer more."
"Understood." The man quickly left.
The darkness was chaotic, but if you looked closely, you could still see a tiny bit of light.
When Xia Luoluo, who was hiding in the corner, saw Han Youling, she was very puzzled. She wondered why Han Youling was here when she should be upstairs.
Just as Xia Luoluo was completely baffled, she saw a man in black walking in the direction where Xia Wanwan was.
"It's over, they're after Xia Wanwan." Xia Luoluo's face turned pale. She glanced at Xia Wanwan, who was lying on the ground unable to move. She was conflicted, unsure whether she should save her. But then she thought, if she saved Xia Wanwan, wouldn't that be the same as offending Han Youling?
"Forget it, I won't save him. It's so chaotic, no one will know I'm leaving him to die."
Xia Luoluo made up her mind.
With all her limbs intact, hiding was easy for her, but Xia Wanwan was in a terrible situation. She was trampled on several times and could only lie on the ground groaning.
Upon hearing Xia Wanwan's voice, Huo Nanxiao hesitated, even though he had intended to send Xia Ningxi away.
"Go straight ahead for 300 meters and you'll find a safety exit. Go out first," Huo Nanxiao said to Xia Ningxi.
Xia Ningxi also heard Xia Wanwan's voice and asked, "Are you going back to find her?"
“Wanwan is unable to move around easily, I must go and save her.” Huo Nanxiao’s voice was very firm.
Xia Ningxi said, "Okay, I'll go with you."
A look of surprise flashed across Huo Nanxiao's cold face. He hadn't expected Xia Ningxi to say that, and he asked in confusion, "What are you going there for?"
“The scene is so chaotic, she’s very likely injured. It would be much better if a doctor were there,” Xia Ningxi replied.
The fire was spreading inside the venue, and everyone was frantically running out, trying to escape this hellish place as quickly as possible.
Huo Nanxiao's return to save Xia Wanwan is an obligation and a responsibility, because Xia Wanwan saved him, so Huo Nanxiao cannot abandon Xia Wanwan. However, Xia Ningxi has no such obligation or responsibility, and she has no need to go back with Huo Nanxiao.
"You go out first. If something happens, I won't be able to protect you in time." Huo Nanxiao did not agree to Xia Ningxi's suggestion.
Xia Ningxi said, "I don't need your protection."
"Don't you understand what I mean? Get out." Huo Nanxiao's voice was even more resolute than before, giving Xia Ningxi no room to refuse.
He turned and left without hesitation.
"Fine, I guess I was just being presumptuous." Xia Ningxi was too lazy to keep trying to win him over.
The smoke grew thicker and thicker, and it was very choking. As Xia Ningxi covered her nose with her sleeve and ran outside, she saw Han Youling. Someone took advantage of the chaos to set fire to the cathedral, making the already chaotic situation even worse.
"What are they trying to do?" Xia Ningxi asked in surprise.
She looked up at the private room upstairs, but Han Musen had already disappeared.
"Could they have set this fire on purpose? What are they trying to do?" Xia Ningxi stopped and watched a group of menacing people rushing menacingly toward Huo Nanxiao's location. She was very puzzled.
"They went there because of Huo Nanxiao?"
"Should we go back and tell Huo Nanxiao?"
"With things so chaotic, we might not be able to find him."
"But what if something happens to Huo Nanxiao if I don't go back and remind him?"
Xia Ningxi didn't know whether she should go back and warn that bastard Huo Nanxiao, but if he went back now and the fire started, she would have a hard time escaping.
But if even she can't escape, Huo Nanxiao and Xia Wanwan will probably perish here as well.
The fire grew larger and larger, spreading fiercely outwards like a wildfire.
The cathedral's structure is very complex. Its centuries-old history means that the entire framework of the cathedral is actually made of wood. If the fire could not be extinguished in time, it would be a catastrophic disaster once it spread.
And now, it's clear that things are out of control!
After Xia Ningxi learned that all of this was Han Musen's conspiracy, she couldn't bear to watch Huo Nanxiao be burned to death. She gritted her teeth, turned around, and ran back.
Screams, cries for help, and the sound of trampling were especially clear inside this sacred cathedral.
The shrill sound was like the cry of a demon.
The scene was chaotic.
Many people were lucky enough to escape, but many others are still trapped inside the church.
Li Yancheng was one of the first people to come out of the cathedral. His car was parked outside the cathedral. When he saw a large group of people rushing out like madmen, he leaned against the car and lit a cigarette.
What's the situation inside?
This question was directed at Yao Qing.
Yao Qing replied, "Young Master Han must have made his move."
"This guy has been in prison for so many years and still hasn't been able to calm down. He dares to lay a hand on so many people. If we give him more power, wouldn't he be out of control?" Li Yancheng sneered.
Yao Qing said, "It's good that he made a move. We don't need to get involved. If Huo Nanxiao is unlucky enough to die inside, the capital city will lose a monopolist, and the Li family's future will be smooth sailing. Young Master Li might as well let Han Musen do it. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us, and we won't have to take responsibility if something goes wrong."
"That's true, why should I bother with this?" Li Yancheng snorted coldly. "Let's see what kind of show they can pull off now."
Yao Qing stood by the car door, watching the people running out of the exit one after another. Several groups of people had already escaped, but she still couldn't see Huo Nanxiao. It seemed that Huo Nanxiao was still trapped inside and hadn't come out.
Thick smoke billowed from the top of the cathedral, and without even going inside, one could tell that the fire inside must be extremely large. If Huo Nanxiao didn't come out soon, he probably wouldn't be able to get out.
Yao Qing couldn't help but wonder, "Logically speaking, someone as smart as Huo Nanxiao shouldn't have been unable to escape after so long, right?"
"It's easy for him to come up with this, but it's much harder for Xia Wanwan. If I remember correctly, Xia Wanwan is the only one in a wheelchair here," Li Yancheng sneered.
Yao Qing said, "Young Master Li is right, only Xia Wanwan has difficulty moving around."
“He should have gone to save Xia Wanwan,” Li Yancheng said.
Yao Qing: "It's also strange that Xia Ningxi didn't come out."
