Chapter 141: The Fear in Their Hearts Couldn’t Go Away
Jian Ai was stunned for a moment before turning to look at the pillow on the bed.
A silver-gray fountain pen lay there silently. Wasn’t it the one she gave Lin Yi?
Jian Ai’s heart seemed to have been hit by something. This fool. Why would he risk his life for this pen?
The wind grew stronger, and the fire swallowed the third floor in an instant with the help of the east wind. Thick smoke rose, and the fire soared into the sky. The people in front of the villa cried for help. However, the sea of fire had already swallowed Jian Yiyi’s room. The fire had already eaten the rope that everyone had worked together with. It swayed and fell.
“Jian Ai!”
“Lin Yi!”
Everyone shouted their names with a hoarse voice, unwilling to give up. However, despair filled their hearts at this moment. Looking at the villa ravaged by the sea of fire, even if they weren’t willing to believe it, Jian Ai and Lin Yi were probably dead.
Thump…
Just as everyone’s hearts were dead, a clear sound of splashing water suddenly sounded.
Everyone’s expressions froze. Almost at the same time, they reacted and ran towards the pool behind the villa.
“Lin Yi! Jian Ai!”
Yan Tian was the first to rush to the pool. When he saw Jian Ai dragging the unconscious Lin Yi towards the edge, he immediately dived and swam over to help.
Seeing this, the others quickly rushed to the pool and reached out to help, quickly pulling the two drenched people to the side.
“Xiao Ai, are you okay? You scared me to death!” Guan Tao was so scared that her soul had left her body. Seeing that Jian Ai was safe and sound, she couldn’t help but hug Jian Ai and cry.
Jian Ai panted heavily. Because her body was drenched, she was shivering from the cold. But she didn’t have time to care about herself now. She patted Guan Tao comfortingly. “I’m fine. Don’t worry.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned to the others and said, “Is the ambulance here? Lin Yi inhaled too much smoke. We need to send him to the hospital immediately.”
Everyone looked at Jian Yiyi. This was her family’s resort hotel. Now that such a big thing had happened, they couldn’t see the fire truck or the ambulance.
Jian Yiyi was in a panic until she felt everyone’s gaze on her. She suddenly reacted. “There’s a medical room at the resort with complete equipment. Let’s send Lin Yi over first!”
The first vehicle to arrive at the scene was not a fire truck or an ambulance, but the sightseeing bus.
Everyone got on the bus and headed towards the medical room Jian Yiyi mentioned.
As Jian Yiyi had said, the hotel’s medical facilities were relatively okay. Lin Yi was pushed into the emergency room immediately. Jian Ai quietly stuffed the fountain pen that almost cost Lin Yi his life into the unconscious Lin Yi’s hand while no one was looking.
The staff arranged for them to be brought to a suite in the main building.
At that moment, no one had recovered yet. No one felt joy from surviving a calamity. Instead, they were all afraid and the fear in their hearts did not disappear even after a long time.
What happened tonight was too sudden. The fire was fierce, and there were too many uncontrollable factors. Most of them were fourteen or fifteen years old, so they had never experienced such a scene.
All in all, if Jian Ai did not stand up and directed everyone to escape, these people would probably have died in the villa.
Just as everyone was still in a dejected and dispirited state, the sound of running water came from the suite’s bathroom.
