Yu Minglang wasn’t trying to look on purpose, but, well, he ended up seeing it anyway.
He even saw the part wrapped in snow-white and pink, with matching colors on both her top and bottom, which actually looked quite good…
One of Xiao Qian’s slippers fell off during her jump, and Yu Minglang wanted to let go of her and help her pick it up. But Xiao Qian wrapped her arms around his waist, her body pressed up against him.
Yu Minglang instantly petrified.
His ears turned red, unable to conceal their color even with ink.
He only heard the girl’s sweet voice as she softly said,
“I’m so scared!”
Though she said she was scared, her eyes were calm. Yu Minglang was somewhat at a loss due to her sudden, seemingly coquettish action, not knowing where to put his hands.
“It’s alright, I’ve already subdued them, don’t be scared.” He comforted her stiffly.
Feeling that something was off, the girl in his arms seemed to shift her legs slightly, and Yu Minglang looked down.
How could Xiao Qian let him see what she wanted to do? Clinging to his waist and not letting go, she extended her leg slightly backward, hooking the burning papers with just a small flame left and kicked them towards the gasoline barrel without a trace.
She did it with the barefoot that had lost the slipper, which was slightly hot. Xiao Qian couldn’t care less about that and quickly kicked the burning papers towards the gasoline barrel. Fearing that Yu Minglang would discover her little trick, she continued to cling to his waist and keep talking.
“I’m really scared…”
Hehe, really scared, there’s no way to scam these bad guys-
She did the mischievous deed while speaking all along, so slick!
When the sparks met gasoline, they instantly ignited. Yu Minglang furrowed his brow, and Xiao Qian pushed him away. She hopped on one foot to pick up the fallen slipper and put it on. The flames roared to life.
“You— ” Yu Minglang understood.
Xiao Qian, under the firelight, was exceptionally calm. That beautiful face of hers showed not a trace of panic.
He had been fooled by this girl, she was up to some mischief again…
Jia Xiufang finally came out, and the sight of the roaring flames startled her. “Quick, call 119! Remember, tell them clearly on the phone that it’s a fire caused by gasoline and they should bring enough fire extinguishers!” Xiao Qian’s reminder made Jia Xiufang suddenly realize, and she stumbled back into the room.
Yu Minglang looked around and saw that less than 10 meters away from Xiao Qian’s house, there was a pile of sand in the neighbor’s doorway, with a wheelbarrow used to transport sand next to it. He didn’t hesitate any longer and quickly picked up the sand in his hands.
Annoying guy, he’s so smart!
Xiao Qian watched Yu Minglang’s swift action and mentally flipped him off. She wanted to lead Yu Minglang to put out the fire with water, but she didn’t expect him to be so clever.
Water should never be used to extinguish a fire ignited by gasoline because the water would sink below the gasoline, causing the fire to spread and make the situation worse.
Xiao Qian was a top student, and so was Yu Minglang. He was bound to know this basic physics knowledge.
At this moment, Chen Ziiong, drawn by the commotion, saw the scene and was startled into a yell.
“Sis, why are you playing with fire instead of sleeping at night?”
The fire was already more than half a meter high. Xiao Qian’s house had a stack of wood nearby for her dry-cleaning shop’s stove used to heat water, so they stored extra wood for this purpose.
Seeing that the fire was about to burn the wood, Chen Ziiong stepped forward to move the wood away. If the fire burned the wood, extinguishing it wouldn’t be that easy.
Xiao Qian grinned at Chen’s attempt to help. She subtly tripped him, causing Chen Dalong to fall forward with his hands outstretched and palms faced down. The position of his fall was close to the gasoline barrel that the bad guys hadn’t had time to pour out yet.
“Ouch!” Chen Ziiong cried out in pain. Xiao Qian went over, pretending to help him up, but her foot “accidentally” kicked the gasoline barrel!
The fire suddenly blazed up. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸𝘦𝒷𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝘮
The gasoline-soaked wood pile instantly ignited.
“Watch out!” Yu Minglang had just gotten half a cart of sand when he looked up and saw Xiao Qian’s side ablaze.
He threw caution to the wind and rushed over, quickly pulling Xiao Qian to one side.
The fire raged fiercely, and two of the three bad guys who had been subdued by Yu Minglang were conscious. Seeing the situation escalating, they ignored the pain in their bodies, scrambled up, and tried to flee.
Yu Minglang held Xiao Qian’s arm, his eyes like those of a hawk, staring intently at her.
“What on earth are you doing!” His voice was unconsciously filled with sternness.
Xiao Qian’s tricks might not be noticed by others, but Yu Minglang had a clear understanding.
This fire was clearly instigated by her.
Even if he had been gathering sand just a moment ago to put out the fire and hadn’t seen what she had done in those few dozen seconds, Yu Minglang was certain that it was her mischief!
Meanwhile, Chen Ziiong was rendered speechless, shouting at the top of his lungs.
“Come on, people, there’s a fire!”
The houses in the area were connected, so people gathered quickly. Jia Xiufang, having just called the fire department, came out to see the fire already burning her woodpile, her face pale with terror.
“What’s going on…”
When she went inside just a moment ago, the fire hadn’t been this big!
The chaos around them escalated. Some called for water, others shouted to put out the fire. Yu Minglang ignored the complex surroundings and just stared fiercely at Xiao Qian.
At this point, even if they wanted to put out the fire, they couldn’t control it. They would have to wait for the firefighters. fre ewebno vel.com
“Do you know how dangerous this is!” Yu Minglang pulled Xiao Qian to a safer place, his usually calm heart now engulfed by an uncontrollable rage.
A top sniper would have unparalleled emotional control, far beyond what ordinary people could achieve.
Yu Minglang had forgotten the last time he had been so angry, but at this moment, his heart was being pulled by this reckless girl.
“What did I do? Weren’t they the ones who came to set our house on fire? Why don’t you chase after those two arsonists who escaped?”
Yu Minglang raised his hand to point at Xiao Qian’s nose. His finger was less than a centimeter away from her nose. Even though he didn’t say anything, his motion clearly showed that he was warning her.
You just wait!
He turned and went chasing after the fleeing criminals, and Xiao Qian snorted. Wait? Sure, bring it on!
She wished the fire would burn bigger, the bigger the better! Once the fire was ablaze, the charges against these people wouldn’t be attempted arson, the sentences would be different.
The firetruck arrived four minutes later, spraying fire retardants. The fire was quickly brought under control, and within three minutes, the police arrived. They took the two bad guys Yu Minglang had captured, as well as the Unlucky Guy who hadn’t woken up yet, back to the station.
The outer wall of Xiao Qian’s house had a large patch charred black, and neighbors gathered around, whispering.
Jia Xiufang and Chen Ziiong were still in shock, while Xiao Qian’s eyes sparkled with amusement.
Hehe, how amusing this is.
“Who will come back with us for the investigation?” someone asked Xiao Qian.
Xiao Qian replied, “I’ll go back with you for the investigation.”
“I’ll also go.” Yu Minglang glared at Xiao Qian.. You naughty girl, just you wait!
