Chapter 141: I Can't Live Without You

Since successfully assisting the Wang family in organizing a birthday banquet last time, Xiang Jiuling has also taken over several banquet helpers one after another, and she didn't care too much about the Ding family's birthday banquet.

Because of the abundance of personnel in the Ding family, Xiang Jiuling did not bring Qin Zhenzhen and Xiao Yu'er, and asked them to help in the restaurant, she went to the Ding family a day in advance according to the custom, familiarized herself with the environment and prepared various ingredients.

Finally finished being busy, Xiang Jiuling followed the maid of the Ding family to the room prepared for her to rest.

As soon as he entered the door, he heard a sound of footsteps outside, and looked up at the maid who lived on the other side, Xiang Jiuling glanced at it unconsciously but frowned unconsciously.

This back...... Seems familiar!

Xiang Jiuling stepped forward quickly to take a look, but the back just now had long since disappeared, for some reason, Xiang Jiuling always felt that something seemed to be wrong, the experience of mercenaries in the previous life always made her retain a trace of caution at all times, especially since this is still a new environment, and she must be a little more vigilant.

Seeing that it was already late, thinking that there would be a tough battle to be fought tomorrow, Xiang Jiuling could only force herself to sleep, but as soon as she closed her eyes, she could think of that familiar back, and she always had a bad premonition in her heart, and she really couldn't sleep.

Suddenly, a shadow flashed outside the window, Xiang Jiuling immediately cheered up, quietly got up and touched the window, and looked out the window through the gap.

The shadow outside the window looked petite, and it could be seen that it should be a woman, looking at the person coming straight towards her room, Xiang Jiuling instantly understood that this person's target should be her.

If she hadn't kept an extra eye on her, I'm afraid she would have been calculated today.

It's just that she is very strange to the Ding family, and it is the first time she has come to the Ding Mansion, how can anyone stare at her?

Seeing that the man had already arrived at the door, Xiang Jiuling hurriedly quietly hid his figure.

I thought that the man should enter the house, but she just quietly tinkered at the door for a moment and then left.

Seeing that the person was leaving like this, Xiang Jiuling was about to chase out, but her nose suddenly smelled a strange scorching smell, which made her frown subconsciously, she didn't see what the person did just now, but Xiang Jiuling knew that she couldn't stay here for long, so she quickly took a few important things and left from the window.

Not long after Xiang Jiuling left, the room where she lived suddenly burst into flames, and it intensified.

In the night, the fire was spreading silently, and it took a while for someone to find out in a daze.

"Oh no, no, it's on fire, put out the fire! Hurry up and put out the fire!"

Someone got up at night and finally found a raging fire in the backyard, this shout broke the calm night, and for a while Ding's house was in chaos, and the chief steward hurriedly commanded the maid and servant to fetch water to extinguish the fire.

Xiang Jiuling, who was standing in the dark, looked at the raging flames, half of her face was hidden in the darkness, and she couldn't see her expression clearly in the light of extinction, if she was still in that room, I am afraid that she would ......

This night is not destined to be peaceful!

Tomorrow is the birthday banquet of the Ding family, but tonight the house suddenly ran out of water, and the whole house was frightened and hurried to put out the fire.

At this time, Wen Xi was still reading at night in the cold window, and he seemed to raise his head to look in the direction of Ding's mansion, he knew that Xiang Jiuling went to Ding's house to help cook, but for some reason, he always had an uneasy feeling in his heart today.

The two families were not far apart, Wen Xi got up and pushed open the window to look in the direction of Ding's house, but frowned violently, only to see that the direction of Ding's house was red and there was billowing smoke, it looked like something should have happened.

When Master Ding and Master Ding rushed over, the fire was still burning, but fortunately, it was discovered in time to stop the fire so that it did not cause a greater spread, otherwise the entire Ding Mansion would be destroyed.

"What's going on?"

"Master, the fire here is too big, you and Childe should stand farther away, we are doing our best to put it out!"

As soon as he saw Master Ding, the housekeeper hurriedly ran over and touched the dense sweat on his forehead.

"Why did it suddenly catch fire? Are there any people living in it, are there any problems with people?"

Ding Gongzi looked at the direction of the fire and determined that it was the guest room, and hurriedly asked about the situation

Fire is a small thing, but hurting someone is a big thing!

"Yes...... It's the cook lady who helps the cook, it seems...... It seems that the surname is incense!"

"What?"

There was a sudden exclamation from the crowd, it was Wen Xi who hurried over to see that the situation of the Ding family was wrong, as soon as he arrived, he heard that Xiang Jiuling lived in the house where the steward said that the fire, and immediately turned red, stepped forward and grabbed his collar.

"You...... What are you talking about, are you saying that Xiang Jiuling is still inside?"

The housekeeper was startled by the sudden appearance of the person, especially when he met the pair of eyes, he did not dare to answer, and suddenly there was a "bang", and he saw the beam of the house fall to the ground in the fire and make a noise, which startled the people who put out the fire.

Wen Xi also came back to his senses at this sound, seeing that the relentless fire was still spreading, he could only let go of his hand, stopped a subordinate beside him, snatched the bucket in his hand, took off his coat and soaked it in the water and draped it on his body, and rushed in without thinking about it.

Fortunately, the steward and Ding Gongzi quickly grabbed Wen Xi and hurriedly persuaded him, "This son, don't worry, this fire is so big, you will die if you charge it."

Wen Xi didn't care so much, so he shook them off and rushed in.

The fire in the house was burning, and the scorching temperature made Wen Xi unable to open his eyes at all, but fortunately, Wen Xi was vigorous and walked around in the fire looking for traces of Xiang Jiuling.

"Xiang Jiuling, where are you? Xiang Jiuling, did you hear me speak? Xiang Jiuling, you will say yes when you hear it!"

Wen Xi shouted at the top of his voice as he searched, but there was only the sizzling sound of fire burning around, and no one responded.

The fire in the house was too big, and there was billowing smoke, Wen Xi really couldn't see clearly, so he could only grit his teeth and insist on groping forward.

"Xiang Jiuling, are you here? Xiang Jiuling!"

Because of the shouting, Wen Xi also inhaled a lot of smoke and dust in his throat, which stimulated him to cough uncontrollably, but fortunately, he had good bones and kept supporting the search.

"Xiang Jiuling, you can't have anything, if something happens to you, I'll ...... What should I do with my children?"

Wen Xi had this feeling of despair for the first time, just like the despair and heartache when he saw the tragic situation when the Wen family was wiped out, it was like a sharp knife slamming his chest, and he couldn't even breathe in pain.

If he could do it all over again, he wouldn't have so many quarrels with her, and he would definitely treat her well!

"Xiang Jiuling, you must not have anything, I beg you, I beg you not to have anything, you can do whatever you want me to do, I ...... I can't live without you!"
