Chapter 180: Can't get close, can't give up
Li Yao's voice was full of panic, and the speed of the car was surprisingly fast.
"I ......" Qiao Nian just wanted to answer, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a firelight in front of him, and the pungent smell of smoke floating in through the car window.
Naturally, Ji Bei also found out, and immediately stepped on the brakes, opened the door and got out of the car: "What's the matter!" ”
Qiao Nian also immediately followed, holding the mobile phone tightly in his palm, looking at the sea of fire in front of him, his mind was blank, and he even forgot that he was still talking to Li Yao on the phone.
The housekeeper who was arranged by Ji Bei in the villa was busy arranging personnel to fight the fire and save people, and when he heard Ji Bei's voice, he turned his head to look in the direction of Ji Bei and Qiao Nian, and saw that they came over immediately: "Young master, Miss Nian Nian......"
"What's going on! How so? Ji Bei's tone was full of impatience.
What Li Yao heard was a mess, and Ji Bei's anxious voice, but he didn't hear Qiao Nian's voice, Li Yao couldn't determine whether Qiao Nian was safe, so he quickly stepped on the accelerator according to the instructions on the navigation and drove towards the villa in the deep mountains.
The housekeeper was also full of anxiety: "Everyone rested after finishing the work in hand, they were still sleeping when the fire started, I don't know how to suddenly find the fire, Professor Xu and her two assistants were also rescued just now, the fire on the third floor is the most fierce, and now the rescuers can't get close, young master......"
Saying that, the housekeeper looked at Qiao Nian, who was following Ji Bei and was already pale with fright, and stopped talking.
Ji Bei looked up at the third floor, where the fire was so big that it couldn't be controlled, his face full of chagrin.
Qiao Nian noticed that the housekeeper's gaze fell on him, his eyebrows frowned, and he hesitated for a while before he slowly spoke: "My mother...... Is it on the third floor? ”
The housekeeper was a little unbearable, and turned his head to look at Ji Bei.
Sometimes, you don't need to say anything in the first place, and you can already understand it completely.
Qiao Nian looked at the raging fire in a daze, shook her head in disbelief, and muttered: "Impossible......" Before she finished speaking, she ran in the direction of the villa without hesitation.
"Miss Niannian!" The butler hurried over to stop him.
Ji Bei reacted, and immediately reached out to pull her into his arms, hugging her tightly: "Don't go, don't miss ......"
Qiao Nian put his arm between the two, desperately endured the fighting in his voice, gritted his teeth and said, "Ji Bei, I don't believe it, she must be fine......"
"I know I know, I'll go, don't go, I'll go in, I'll bring her out completely, you wait for me, you just wait for me here." Ji Bei tried to keep his voice steady, he didn't want to scare her, especially at this time.
Qiao Nian looked up at him from Ji Bei's arms, his calmness, the firmness and gentleness in his tone, were all relied on by Qiao Nian.
Moreover, Ji Bei's dependence on her was so deep that she was unforgettable, and even, to this day, only he can completely calm her emotions that are almost collapsed.
However, the next moment, looking at his face, Qiao Nian couldn't hold back his tears.
Ji Bei's wide palm controlled the back of her head, letting her lean on his arms, and then just for a moment, he pushed her away and handed Qiao Nian to the housekeeper: "Take her away, don't let her get close." ”
"Young Master......"
The fire is so big that if you go in now, you will undoubtedly be sent to death. However, Ji Bei couldn't care so much anymore, he didn't even look at Qiao Nian, not because he was afraid, but because he was reluctant.
was afraid to look at her more, so he was reluctant to go to the soup for her.

Li Yao held the steering wheel tightly with both hands, and the joints were blue and white.
He heard Ji Bei's words, and it was precisely because of this that he was so angry, so he was angry when he was not there.
Glancing at the navigation, he looked at the fire that was getting closer and closer, and the firefighters who came to the rescue before him, stepped on the brakes, stopped on the side of the road and immediately got out of the car.
When Li Yao found Qiao Nian, she was hugging Ji Bei tightly, and her voice was cold and clear: "Don't go over, don't go ......"
Firefighters rushed into the fire quickly to control the fire and extinguish the fire as quickly as possible.
From beginning to end, Qiao Nian didn't let go of Ji Bei, and Li Yao was standing not far away, unable to get close and reluctant to retreat.
Ji Bei turned his head to look at Li Yao, and his star-like eyes flashed with a touch of surprise, but soon, they were replaced by a cold mockery that raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Looking at the smile at the corner of Ji Bei's mouth, the corner of Li Yao's mouth pulled, the hands hanging on his sides couldn't help but tighten, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his sexy thin lips were pursed into a cold line.
The fire was extinguished, and the firefighters came out of the fire one after another, and the person in charge walked directly to Li Yao: "Mr. Li, it has been checked, and there are no casualties. ”
Ji Bei didn't say anything, and the housekeeper looked shocked: "There are no casualties?" This...... How is this possible? ”
The person in charge of the fire brigade said seriously: "Well, I guarantee with my profession that there is indeed no one inside." ”
Ji Bei carefully pushed Qiao Nian away, and his voice was gentle: "Don't be afraid, it's okay, I'll go in and take a look, wait." After saying that, he immediately went in, and the butler was not reconciled, and hurriedly followed.
The head of the fire brigade immediately pointed to two people who followed him in: "Pay attention to safety." ”
Qiao Nian tugged at Ji Bei's blazer on his body, his eyes were slightly constricted, and he couldn't see any emotion.
Li Yao took his eyes off her before asking again, "Are you sure?" ”
"Sure Mr. Li."
"What about the third floor?" On the way to Li Yao, he vaguely heard them say that the third floor, called the fire brigade, and specially told them that there were still people trapped on the third floor, the fire was so big, it was not a strange thing that they couldn't be rescued, but if there was no one, it would be a little strange.
Hearing Li Yao's question, the fire chief immediately said: "Because when you called, you reported that someone was trapped on the third floor, so we rushed to the rescue on the third floor as quickly as possible, and the fire was already uncontrollable when we went in. ”
Li Yao didn't speak, just raised his eyes and glanced at Qiao Nian, who was standing not far away.
The ambulance from the hospital had arrived, and a nurse had already gone to Qiao Nian, carefully helping her to go to the ambulance not far away to do simple first aid, followed by Professor Xu and her two assistants, who were slightly injured.
There are still a lot of things to deal with at the scene, and the person in charge of the fire brigade will not be able to say anything when he sees Li Yao, and he said carefully: "If there is nothing to do with Mr. Li......
Li Yao heard his voice, and responded in hindsight: "Well, it's hard work." After saying that, he immediately turned around and caught up with Qiao Nian.
"I'll do it." Li Yao took it from the nurse's hand, and helped Qiao Nian, the nurse hesitated slightly, but seeing that Li Yao insisted, he didn't say anything, and respectfully owed his body, and then turned around and went to someone else's side to help.
Qiao Nian's gaze fell on the man, and it took a while for Li Yao's voice to pull back his thoughts: "Nian Nian, are you okay?" ”
"En......" Qiao Nian retracted his gaze, responded in an extremely flat tone, and then shook his head and said, "I'm fine." ”
Li Yao breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and turned his head to look at Ji Bei, who was walking towards him from the villa that had become a ruin, and the strength that was originally carefully supporting Qiao Nian's arm involuntarily increased a little.
Qiao Nian's eyebrows twisted in pain, looked up at Li Yao, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "You hurt me." ”
The calm and waveless tone, the casual accusation, the eyes that were originally clear as water were more alienated and thin.
It's like, talking to someone you don't know, there is no emotion, not even boredom.
Li Yao's eyebrows drooped slightly, his eyes fell on the crook of her arm he was holding, and in the end, he loosened up a little, and just held on: "Go to the hospital first." ”
Qiao Nian didn't speak, just nodded.
Li Yao carefully helped Qiao Nian, and finally picked her up, and walked towards the place where he parked, before he picked Qiao Nian into the car, fastened his seat belt, and was about to close the car door, when Ji Bei ran over and stopped her.
He stubbornly stopped the car door that was about to close, looked at Qiao Nian, who was already sitting quietly in the co-pilot seat of Li Yao's car, and gritted his teeth and said, "Are you sure you won't stay and look for me with me?" ”
Qiao Nian didn't even look at him, and said slowly: "I'm tired, but I will ask the search and rescue team to search in the nearby mountains and forests, and you should go back and rest early, thank you for today's events." ”
Ji Bei's eyebrows tightened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Qiao Nian, do you know what you're talking about?" ”
Qiao Nian didn't speak.
Li Yao pushed Ji Bei away and closed the car door directly.
Ji Bei looked at Qiao Nian in disbelief, Li Yao turned his back to Qiao Nian, facing Ji Bei, his tall figure blocked his sight from looking at her, and his cold laughter was infected with endless ridicule: "Ji Bei, no matter what, I still have to say thank you to you, thank you for helping me stop her, not letting her in, not letting her get hurt." ”
After Li Yao finished speaking, he turned around and left directly, walked to the cab, opened the car door and got into the car, started the car and left with Qiao Nian.
Ji Bei stood in place sluggishly, until the housekeeper rushed over, looked at the direction Li Yao left, and asked with a puzzled face: "Young master, Miss Niannian ...... she"
This housekeeper has served the Ji family for many years, he was there when Ji Jun was there, he was the one who watched Ji Bei and Qiao Nian grow up, and naturally knew how deep the relationship between the two was, after the accident three years ago, he originally thought that they were no longer possible, but just now......
Even it is not difficult for him to see that Miss Nian Nian still has a young master in her heart, but ......
The corners of Ji Bei's mouth twitched, he smiled extremely sadly, and his voice was cold and desperate: "Next time I see her, remember to change my name to Mrs. Li!" ”
"This ......"
However, after Ji Bei finished speaking, he left directly.
*
On the ring road, Li Yao drove smoothly towards the city.
Qiao Nian leaned back in the seat, her beautiful eyebrows were tightly twisted, she was still wearing Ji Bei's blazer, her arms were folded and hugged together, and her soft hands were tightly gripping his clothes.
Keep an absolute distance from him when you are sober and calm, and when you are at a loss, is he the person you want to rely on the most in your heart?
