Chapter 122 Picked up a little baby
The fire burned more and more fiercely, and soon a young and strong man began to fetch water to put out the fire. The woman saw that the fire was getting more fierce, and started to make a fuss about breaking in.
What I am more worried about is Yunyue’s safety. I don’t know if there is anyone else in the inn who couldn’t escape.
Fortunately, the people from the government office came over quickly, and the young man saw me at a glance: "Girl, where is the person you were with?"
I saw the people he led start to put out the fire, and because he led so many people, they were able to effectively contain the fire quickly.
"He's not here, but there are still people in the inn who haven't come out yet."
When the man heard this, he stopped talking and just as he was about to rush in, he put on a half-wet blanket, but he couldn't help turning back and asking me, "Don't you have anyone to protect you?"
I shook my head and stopped talking.
He just told me: "Then you have to be careful."
I nodded and watched him rush into the fire.
Not long after, several young men quickly rescued the people and the fire gradually became smaller, but I didn't see Yunyue.
I panicked and immediately ran inside, but the young man stopped me and said, "Girl, there is no one alive inside."
I pushed him away: "My friend is still in there."
The young man immediately asked me to wait outside and he ran in quickly.
I couldn't care less at this moment and just ran in. No matter what, Yunyue went in to save people because of me, and his arm was injured, so I couldn't just stand outside and watch.
The fire inside was quite big, and the hot breath hit me, and I felt like I was in a sea of fire.
"Yun Yue, Yun Yue."
I ran inside, shouting.
The thick smoke made it hard for me to breathe, and I felt suffocated instantly. I looked around but didn't see anyone.
"How did you get in? Did you find your friend?"
I shook my head and he smiled gently, "I'll go with you."
I won't say any more.
"Is this friend of yours important to you?"
I didn't answer him, but kept shouting, "Yunyue, Yunyue."
Suddenly I felt my foot kicked something. Due to the thick smoke, my vision was blocked, so I had to squat down. A man was crushed by a beam. The uninjured man was holding a baby in his arms. The baby was protected in his arms. At this moment, the baby was still safe and sound, with his big eyes open, looking around curiously.
I held the baby in my arms, and the man on the ground suddenly opened his eyes in a daze: "Save...save him."
It was just these two words, but they shocked me. He was a secret guard, and he killed many people according to Yun Hance's orders, but at the critical moment, he held the unrelated little baby in his arms.
"Yunyue, he's fine, we'll all be fine."
I don’t know if he heard it or not, because as soon as he said those two words, he fainted.
The young man carried Yunyue on his back, and I walked out holding the baby.
The fire outside had been put out and the crowd had almost dispersed. I held the doll and asked, "Everyone, come and see, whose doll is this? Can you take it away?"
No one in the small crowd came forward to recognize me, so I could only look at the young man. The young man came over and said, "Why don't you leave it to me and slowly check if there is anyone else at the kid's home and then send him back."
At this moment, I have no way to take care of the baby. Besides, according to the law, he should be handed over to the government so that they can find the baby's family.
I asked, "What's your name?"
The man took the child and said, "Wan Chenyuan."
I silently memorized this name in my heart.
As soon as the baby was in his hands, he started crying non-stop, with his little face wrinkled. After all, Wan Chenyuan was not married yet, and he was very unfamiliar with holding a child.
Although I was also unfamiliar with it, the little baby was inexplicably very well-behaved lying in my arms.
Wan Chenyuan was helpless and put the baby in my hand again: "This baby is really tactless. You are so ugly, but he is not scared by you. He will become a great man in the future."
I rolled my eyes. What do you mean I’m ugly? My appearance is not good in Beijing... Well, that was all in the past.
I didn't refute. I held the baby in my arms, not knowing where to go. At this moment, Yunyue hadn't woken up yet, and I was penniless. It seemed that everything was back to the starting point.
I sighed: "I am penniless at this moment, can you lend me some money?"
Wan Chenyuan was stunned for a moment, then immediately responded: "I'm working. I didn't bring any money, and it's getting late now, how about you stay at my house for a night?"
I looked back at the end of the long street, and I didn’t know when Yun Hance would come back. Yun Yue was still lying unconscious on a stretcher.
At this moment, I have no other choice.
"Then please ask Lord Wan to send someone to wait here. If Ah Ce doesn't see me when he comes back, he will probably be anxious."
What I want to say is that he will have an attack, but Yun Hance hasn’t had one for a long time now.
"Asan, wait here. If anyone comes looking for someone, bring him to me immediately."
A bailiff agreed immediately.
I followed Wan Chenyuan to his home. His house had a small fence with an unknown green vine climbing and winding around it.
The yard is not big, and occasionally unknown wild flowers bloom on the muddy ground.
There were three thatched huts. Wan Chenyuan pushed open the one on the far left and said, "Miss, is this one ok?"
I took a look around and saw the coarse cloth bed curtains, the grayish-white bedding, an octagonal table that was neither new nor old, and a candlestick that was about to go out.
It is indeed the worst environment I have ever lived in, but I have no other choice now.
"Miss, my humble abode is simple, but it's not safe outside, and you're alone with your injured friend. You should also know that Nanxi Pass has been in turmoil recently, and many women have mysteriously disappeared. I can only ask you to stay here first."
I shook my head: "It's good to have a place to live."
Wan Chenyuan was a little embarrassed at first, but now he smiled, his two little tiger teeth looked honest and cute: "Then your friend will be arranged next door to you?"
I couldn't help but ask, "Where are your parents? There are three houses in total, and we can't occupy two of them."
I had never seen anyone else at his house before, so I thought his parents had already gone to bed, after all, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
"Miss, you don't have to be polite to me. I'm the only one in my house, and I happen to have two empty rooms." He smiled gently.
Seeing that he didn't want to say more, I naturally didn't ask more questions.
He carried Yunyue to the next room and was about to ask for a doctor. I stopped him and said, "At this moment, I'm afraid no doctor is willing to come. He has a knife wound and a burn. I'll feel his pulse. If there is no other problem, I'll trouble you to find these two medicines for him."
He looked at me blankly, and I muttered to myself, feeling so stupid.
"Is it because you don't have these medicines at home?"
He scratched his head: "I have all the medicine, but I didn't expect the girl to be able to take the pulse!"
I didn’t want to say more: “By chance, I learned some medical skills from an old senior.”
