Clinging to Devoted Fiancé, Heiress Slays the World!-Chapter 982: Suddenly, a Huge Fire Broke Out!
The woman breathed in the long-lost air of freedom and pulled out a crumpled old newspaper from her pocket.
She unfolded the newspaper, and the most striking feature was the coverage of the summer charity gala. The bold black headline boldly proclaimed: Mr. Gu attends charity gala with beloved wife and announces the joyful news of her pregnancy!
The article was accompanied by a photo of Gu Moqian embracing Ji Wei in his arms. Their eyes met with uncontrollable smiles, conveying their happiness and sweetness to everyone.
The woman fiercely crumpled the photo on the newspaper into a ball, looked up at the Gu Group Building, a landmark in Rongcheng, and her gloomy eyes shot out intense hatred.
You caused my family to be ruined, wasting away time in prison, yet you continue to live so happily!
How can the heaven be so unfair?
Just wait and see. Soon, I’ll turn all your happiness into bubbles!
...
"Mo Qian, the baby is due in a week, and I’m suddenly feeling a bit uneasy." That evening, after dinner, they strolled in the garden as usual, and Ji Wei suddenly spoke up.
For some reason, as the due date drew closer, her anxiety was gradually intensifying.
Even she herself couldn’t understand the reason behind it.
"Don’t worry, I’ll be with you in the delivery room, accompanying you all the way," Gu Moqian said softly.
When Ji Wei gave birth to An An, he was in London and couldn’t see the child immediately. This time, Gu Moqian wouldn’t miss the chance.
"It’s better not to."
Ji Wei blushed at his words and lowered her eyelashes, saying, "There’ll be a lot of blood, and it’s very, very painful. I don’t want you to see me like that."
The first time giving birth to An An was premature, and Ji Wei went through a painful process.
Knowing how weak and embarrassed she was then, she still wanted to maintain her lovely image before Gu Moqian.
"You saying this makes me want to stay by your side even more."
Gu Moqian held her hand and intertwined his fingers with hers, "When you’re in pain, working hard, how can I stand by and watch? I’ll be by your side to give you strength, so you don’t have to be afraid of anything."
His words struck her deeply, and suddenly her eyes reddened.
Ji Wei no longer refused, looking up passionately at him wanting to say something. Just then, Gu Moqian’s phone rang.
He took it out to see it was from Chen Ke.
"What’s up?" he asked in a deep voice.
"Mr. Gu, something happened! I just received an emergency call saying the Gu Building suddenly caught fire, and the flames are still spreading..." Chen Ke said urgently over the phone.
Listening to his voice, Gu Moqian’s expression became stern: "Alright, I’ll head over right away. You organize the evacuation first to prevent any casualties."
Ji Wei guessed that something must have happened from his grim expression.
"Mo Qian, if there’s something, you should go. Don’t feel obligated to stay with me," Ji Wei said immediately upon seeing him hang up the phone.
"Call me if anything happens." Gu Moqian kissed her forehead and turned to leave briskly.
Ji Wei returned to the living room but couldn’t sit still.
She hadn’t asked Gu Moqian in detail what had gone wrong, but she felt deep down that it was serious. She instinctively picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.
As the TV screen switched to Rongcheng TV Station, a breaking news alert suddenly blared:
"Emergency broadcast: A fire broke out at the Gu Group Building in the city center. According to eyewitness reports from our channel’s reporters, the fire is raging, with billowing smoke above the twentieth floor. Personnel have been evacuated urgently, and firefighters are rushing to the scene... The cause of the fire is still under further investigation..."
