chapter7

Jiang He, who arrived late, skillfully and quickly pulled out the fire extinguisher, and sprayed wildly at the live seedlings, but to no avail.

Seeing that the fire could not be suppressed, Lu Cong was dazzled by the smoke, wanted to catch Ren Zhen but couldn't find her, turned his head and shouted: "Jianghe! Find Ren Zhen! Take her out!"

As soon as he turned around, he collided head-on with Jiang He, who was pulling Ren Zhen in his hand.

The costumes on the second floor were burned only with fragments of stumps, sparks wrapped in rags and falling down, and sparks falling like rain in the house.

The three of them held each other tightly, and were about to rush out, when the wooden shelf above their heads broke with a thud and smashed straight to the ground.

Lu Cong's eyes were quick, and he pushed the two brothers and sisters out, and a towering wall of fire ruthlessly separated the three on the spot.

Jiang He panicked and shouted at Lu Cong, but no matter what he called, Lu Cong didn't make any sound.

Ren Zhen on the side was already choked by the smoke, and the whole person began to sway.

"Brother... Brother—" she cried out intermittently, in a very small voice.

Jiang He really had no choice, so he had to drag Ren Zhen out first, and he just wanted to rush into the house again, but was caught by Jiang Hao, who came in time.

"Sister, Lu Cong is still inside!!" Jiang He shouted.

Jiang Hao's head buzzed, and she desperately called Lu Cong a few times, but there was no movement in the room.

She turned to the butler and shouted, "Quick, get me wet!"

The housekeeper was stunned, not understanding what she meant, Jiang Hao snorted anxiously, snatched the water gun, brought it to the top of his head and instantly wet himself, and then rushed into the sea of fire desperately: "Lu Cong... cough cough..."Jiang Hao, who was choked by the smoke, couldn't speak, she lowered her body and tried to find it, and soon found Lu Cong, who was already unconscious.

"Lu Cong!" Jiang Hao rushed forward.

Overnight, the fire in Yuexin Garden spread overwhelmingly, Jiang family relatives, city leaders, reporters, onlookers... The entrance of Yuexin Garden is impassable.

Grandpa stayed at home to deal with the constant external pressure, while Jiang Hao ran up and down in the hospital.

When He Jiaren arrived, he was about to lose his tracks, because Lu Cong had rescued him 4 times in one night and was dying.

Jiang Hao stood in front of He Jiaren in embarrassment and kept apologizing and explaining, but He Jiaren couldn't listen to a single star. Because, Jiang He and Ren Zhen stood in front of her intact.

He Jiaren seemed to have lost her heart and gone crazy: "Why?!Why is it my son who is lying inside?!Why can the two of them stand here unscathed?!Didn't you say that all three children went in?!Then why is my son rescuing inside now?!What do you say?!!"

Jiang Hao couldn't speak for a long time, she didn't know how to answer, her head was dizzy, and her heart was even more confused.

He Jiaren felt angry when she said that, so she began to push Jiang Hao again and again, crying and shouting: "If my son has a good day today, I want you to accompany the funeral !! the whole Yuexin Garden."

……

Wang Chen, the secretary beside He Jiaren, kept trying to pull her away and persuade her to calm down, but she shook Wang Chen away and asked him how to calm down.

Jiang He stood behind his sister and kept crying silently, and Ren Zhen on the side had a thick bandage wrapped around his hand, and he was already crying.

At this time, her hands hurt and her heart hurt.

This matter continued to ferment in the next few days, because Lu Cong was admitted to the ICU because of a serious lung infection, and he was still in danger. He Jia was so angry that he went to the reporter, and the reporter kept asking Yue Xinyuan, why didn't he save Lu Cong at that time?

The overwhelming and unbelievable reports have plunged the entire Yuexin Garden into an unprecedented crisis.

For this reason, his grandfather had a heart attack and was also admitted to the hospital, Jiang Hao could only withstand the huge pressure alone, running on both sides of the hospital house, and the whole person instantly lost a few big circles, looking yellow and tired.

Ren Zhen looked at the messy home, but she couldn't help anything, she hated herself to death, she might as well be burned to death.

A cordon had been set up around Linglong Pavilion, and the housekeeper led people to rummage carefully on the ruins, but to no avail. The honor of the Jiang family for generations turned into green smoke with a fire.

The old butler was unkempt, knelt in front of the ruins and cried, and said, "Nothing, nothing..."

In those days, Jiang He fell into endless self-blame, taking all the responsibility on himself.

Ren Zhen cried and said no, it was all her fault, if she hadn't brought it up, no one would have thought of going.

The mutual comfort of the brother and sister was particularly powerless at this time.

Lu Cong's bedroom has been packed empty by his aunt, and all his luggage has been taken to the hospital. Ren Zhen couldn't help but run to his room.

But there was no one in his window anymore, and every word spoken in the empty room was echoed.

Ren Zhen rarely entered his house before, but now that he is gone, no one stops her anymore.

She entered the house and walked around the room, and his shadow was everywhere.

In front of the desk, the drawers were not tightly closed, and the light was shining through.

Ren Zhen opened it, and the sugar in the half drawer was given by her. Auntie didn't bring it to him!

She was suddenly anxious, and ran back to her room to get a beautiful glass jar, which was stuffed to the brim.

Jiang He went to her house and didn't see anyone, and when he thought she was here.

As soon as I walked in, I saw her sitting on a chair with a glass jar of candy and crying.

Jiang He walked over and whispered softly: "Don't cry, brother will take you to him." ”

Ren Zhen wiped his tears, and shed more as he wiped, and the person choked: "Really, really, really?"

"Hmm. Jiang He stretched out his hand.

There were no adults at home, Jiang He called his driver to send them over, and Ren Zhen carefully hugged the sugar jar all the way to the hospital.

At the door of the ICU, Ren Zhen looked in through the crack in the door, there was a glass room inside, and she could only vaguely see a person lying on the hospital bed wearing an oxygen mask, it was Lu Cong.

He seemed to be asleep, motionless.

The tears flowed more and more, and Ren Zhen wiped his tears vigorously with one hand holding the sugar jar and the other, in order to look at him a few more times.

"Lu Cong, do you want to eat sugar?" she asked vaguely.

Not far behind, He Jiaren and Wang Chen were walking this way, He Jiaren recognized these two children at a glance, and a wave of anger rushed into the brain, and the person suddenly lost his mind and walked a few steps quickly to pull Ren Zhen away.

……

Ren Zhen stumbled a few steps in fright, almost fell down, and was steadily held by Jiang He.

"Auntie, what are you doing?" Jiang He's voice was a little loud because of dissatisfaction.

He Jiaren sneered and pointed at herself, her eyes glaring at the boss: "What are you asking me for? I still have to ask you what you are doing! Do you still think my son is not miserable enough? Are you willing to kill my son?"

Wang Chen saw Ren Zhen crying, and tried to persuade He Jiaren but was ignored. He had no choice but to hint at Jiang He to hurry up and take his sister away.

But the sugar jar hadn't been given out yet, Ren Zhen didn't want to go, and whispered with tears in his eyes: "Auntie, I'm sorry, it's me who is wrong." I'm not coming again, but... Can you take this for Lu Cong?"

She lifted the sugar jar high above her head.

He Jiaren twisted her eyebrows and looked at a jar of candy, her anger did not decrease but increased, I can't beat you, I can't break the jar! She took the glass jar and smashed it to the ground without blinking, and in an instant, the glass splashed everywhere, and the colorful candy fell to the ground.

Jiang He reacted quickly and pulled Ren Zhen behind him, a piece of bounced glass slag crossed his calf, the wound was a little deep, and the blood was bubbling up.

Ren Zhen was frightened and stunned, staring at the ground silently, even forgetting to cry.

The number of onlookers gradually increased, but He Jiaren didn't feel that she had done anything wrong at all, she hated to strangle the two children in front of her.

Wang Chen couldn't look past it, he didn't want it to get worse, so he pulled He Jiaren into the ward, and before entering the door, He Jiaren suddenly turned around again and pointed at Ren Zhen: "I warn you! Don't show up again! Otherwise, this will be your fate!"

Ren Zhen watched a candy turn into powder at her feet, swallowed in fright, and shrank back.

After settling He Jiaren, Wang Chen quickly folded it out, holding gauze in his hand.

He sighed lowly and squatted down to wrap the gauze around Jiang He's calves.

After getting up, he pinched Jiang He's shoulder: "Take my sister back." Lu Cong's mother has been resting badly recently, so her state is a little poor, don't mind. ”

After speaking, he smiled bitterly and rubbed Ren Zhen's head again.

Ren Zhen glanced at Wang Chen, as if he saw hope, and suddenly bent down to pick up a piece of candy and raised his arm: "Uncle, can you help me give this candy to Lu Cong?"

Wang Chen nodded and spread out his palms, and Ren Zhen carefully put the candy on it and said thank you.

She wasn't sure if Wang Chen would give it, but in this way, she could at least deceive herself that he gave it.

After returning home, she shook off the river and ran to the pear blossom forest crying, today she was not afraid at all, there were no monsters that ate children, there were no terrible cries, there was no... Nothing!

She ran all the way to the big rock that Lu Cong was hiding from that day, panting and staring at the back of the stone, and Lu Cong was gone...

Jiang He hid under a tree not far from her, looking at her silently, she was like a wounded kitten, hunched over and squatting on the ground, waiting to be comforted, but the person she was waiting for was not him.

She cried at a big rock for a long, long time, Jiang He didn't know why she chose this place, he only knew that the last time she cried like this was when her grandfather died.

Ren Zhen cried and cried, suddenly stood up, wiped a few tears indiscriminately, and said a little groggy: "Pear blossoms bloom... Spring with rain... Pear blossom falls... Spring into the mud... This life is only for one person..."

The hoarse voice echoed in the pear blossom forest, which should be the most ugly time she sang, but it was the most attentive time.

She kept singing, singing over and over again, but he would never stand still waiting for her, never look back, never look down at her with anticipation.

"Lu Cong, let's be friends......" She didn't have time to tell him yet.

For 9-year-old Ren Zhen, friendship is the supreme emotion in addition to family affection.

Jiang He is her favorite brother. Lu Cong is her favorite friend.
