Xavier took a deep breath and said casually, “Nope. I only smell tea. 11
“No!”
Renee’s senses had always been sharp. She frowned and said, “I think I smell smoke, and it’s really
strong!”
“Smoke?”
Xavier inhaled again, and this time, he could indeed detect the smell of smoke, but he did not think
much of it. He waved away her concern and said, “Who cares? Maybe your neighbor’s having a
barbecue party.”
“I’ll go outside to take a look.”
Renee could not sit still any longer. She immediately stood up and went out of the tea room to
investigate.
“Ah!”
What she saw shocked her.
The ground floor was on fire, and the fire was spreading to the second floor along the stairs. The entire
house was filled with smoke.
“Holy crap, why is the house on fire?!”
Xavier was shocked too.
The fire was getting fiercer and seemed to have spread everywhere. The staircase was made purely
out of wood, so it had completely caught fire and looked like it was about to collapse.
“What should we do? We have to get out of here, now…”
Xavier was nervous. He squatted down, pointed to his back and told Renee, “Hurry, I’ll carry you
downstairs!”
Renee was slightly stunned.
She did not expect him to stay and help her. The first thing he thought of in the face of disaster was not
to run as hard as he could, but to save her first…
She would remember this favor.
“Can’t you see that the stairs are about to collapse? We’ll die if we take the stairs.”
Renee looked at the spreading fire and calmly analyzed the situation.
“Then what should we do? We’ll die if we just stay here too… Shit, the fire is spreading really quickly. If
we don’t run now, we’ll actually die!”
Xavier was so anxious that he was sweating all over. He wished he could just knock Renee out and
carry her away.
After all, Renee was pregnant. She was like a delicate flower in a greenhouse which must be carefully
protected.
But why was she so calm about this whole situation? As a pregnant woman, she should be worried!
“The fire hasn’t reached the second floor yet. Come inside first.”
Renee pulled Xavier into the tea room and slammed the door shut. The tea room was big and had
good ventilation. The large windows were their only escape route now.
Renee did not panic in the face of danger. She tore two pieces of cloth and wet them. She used one to
covered her mouth and nose and handed the other to Xavier, telling him, “We can try escaping through
the window!”
Xavier ran to the window. He saw that it was not very high and there were footholds that they could use
to climb down. A tall, healthy man like him could reach the ground safely if he was careful.
“Good idea…”
Xavier squatted down again and gestured with his head for her to climb on. “We don’t have much time.
Hurry up, or we’ll be in trouble when the fire reaches us!”
“No way!”
Renee firmly refused. “It’ll take too long for you to carry me downstairs, not too mention too dangerous.
Why don’t you climb down alone first and look for help?”
Although the window was not very high and the climb was not that difficult, it would be a different story
if he was carrying someone on his back. She did not want to be a burden to him.
“Nonsense! I’m not a coward! I’m not gonna run away by myself and leave a pregnant woman here to
die! I can’t do that…”
Xavier urged, “Stop wasting time and hop on. I’m actually a skilled rock climber, so it won’t be a
problem for me.”
The fire burned ever fiercer. Even the tea room’s door was burning by now, pouring black smoke and
embers into the room. The situation was pressing…
Renee touched her belly. There were two living beings inside, so she did not dare take risks.
Therefore, she steeled herself and climbed onto Xavier’s back. She put her arms around the man’s
neck, held on tightly and thanked him. “Okay, I’ll leave my life and my babies’ lives in your hands!”
Xavier took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure we all get out of here safe and
sound!”
