Chapter 295: Chapter 295 Not Pursue Bai Family’s Responsibility
"What happened! Why did the self-destruct start suddenly!"
Bai Lingling could not withstand the fear brought by darkness and started screaming loudly.
"Shut up!"
Qiao Yi’s head was spinning from the noise, the only thing she could hear was the cold, mechanical broadcast from the radio—she knew she had to escape quickly!
There were continuous sounds of explosions in the darkness. Qiao Yi forced herself to calm down and frantically ran around in the darkness looking for an exit.
"Yiyi!"
"Yiyi!"
"Where are you!"
Faintly, someone was calling her name. Qiao Yi heard it—it was Lu Yanchuan’s voice!
Lu Yanchuan had come to rescue her!
"Yanchuan! I’m here! I’m right here!"
Qiao Yi ran towards the voice while shouting loudly.
Lu Yanchuan’s voice got closer and closer, and there seemed to be some light appearing ahead. Qiao Yi knew she was about to reach the exit!
The explosions behind her were getting closer, and Qiao Yi could feel the ground shaking beneath her feet—the base was self-destructing!
She didn’t have much time left!
With the help of the light from the exit, Qiao Yi could now see Lu Yanchuan’s anxious figure.
"Yiyi! Hurry! Run faster!"
Lu Yanchuan desperately tried to come in, but the people around him were tightly grabbing him, refusing to let go.
Qiao Yi could feel the airwave from the explosion behind her; only a few steps were left, just a few steps and she would be out!
Suddenly!
Just as Qiao Yi was about to step out of the base, a hand suddenly appeared on her shoulder, gripping her tightly.
Under Qiao Yi’s shocked gaze, Bai Lingling pushed Qiao Yi behind her and rushed towards Lu Yanchuan at the door first.
"Yanchuan! I was so scared! Thank goodness you came to rescue me!"
Qiao Yi watched in shock as Bai Lingling blissfully threw herself into Lu Yanchuan’s arms, blocking the hand that was originally extended towards her.
Crashing heavily to the ground, the next moment Qiao Yi got up, the explosion followed right after!
"Get out of my way!"
"Ah!"
Bai Lingling had not yet enjoyed the warmth of Lu Yanchuan’s embrace when Lu Yanchuan mercilessly pushed her away.
"Boss!"
"Boss, come back, you can’t go there!"
No one expected Bai Lingling to pull such a stunt; in a moment of distraction, Lu Yanchuan broke free from those holding him and rushed towards Qiao Yi, who was still inside the base!
Bai Lingling’s face, still with a trace of smugness, twisted with shock and resentment.
Why! Why!
What did Qiao Yi have that she didn’t, why could Lu Yanchuan risk his very life for that wench!
Just a little bit more, if only Qiao Yi disappeared from this world, then Lu Yanchuan would be hers alone!
"Quick, save her! Go now!"
Amidst the chaos all around, Bai Lingling seemed to fall into a delusion, filled with visions of a happy life with Lu Yanchuan.
"Boom—"
The roaring explosion interrupted Bai Lingling’s fantasy. A burst of orange light exploded from the base, followed by an unstoppable shockwave!
Bai Lingling screamed as she hit the wall, curling up on the ground, unable to move.
The impact of the explosion was like a massive hammer, continuously pounding on her body.
Her already frail body suffered such torment and was now extremely weak; shaken by the shockwave, Bai Lingling immediately passed out.
"Boss! Sister-in-law!"
Someone was screaming, someone was crying...
Qiao Yi slowly opened her eyes, and before her was a snowy whiteness. Qiao Yi moved slightly, and a doll-faced, red-eyed young boy appeared in her view.
Hound was crying so hard he could barely catch his breath, his face unnaturally pale.
"I’m okay, don’t cry..."
Qiao Yi tried to lift her hand to comfort him, but it took a lot of effort, and she still couldn’t raise her hand.
"Sister-in-law, it’s all my fault. If it weren’t for my negligence, you wouldn’t have been captured by Dirk’s men!"
Hound’s last bit of strength broke completely upon hearing Qiao Yi’s soothing words, and he suddenly threw himself onto Qiao Yi’s bed and cried loudly.
After all, he was just a child. Qiao Yi rested one hand on Hound’s head, and it took a while before he stopped crying.
"What’s wrong with me? Why can’t I use any strength?"
"Sister-in-law, you’ve been unconscious for three days, not eating anything; of course, you can’t muster any strength. I’ll have someone send some food right now!"
Hound wiped his face, then remembered to press the bell to call someone.
Doctors and nurses rushed in, and after a lengthy examination, they just changed Qiao Yi’s IV medication.
Qiao Yi was eating porridge while listening to Hound narrate the events that happened after she passed out.
It turned out that after Bai Lingling pushed her away, Qiao Yi quickly climbed up, and at that moment, Lu Yanchuan also ran in, taking Qiao Yi and running outside with her.
The two had just crossed the threshold of the base when the base behind them exploded.
The two of them were hit by the strongest shockwave and were blown away by the blast, but fortunately, they were a distance from the explosion’s center, and their strong physiques helped them survive.
"How is Yanchuan doing!"
"Boss woke up a day before you; there was some business at the company he had to attend to, but he should be back soon."
Hearing that Lu Yanchuan was alright, Qiao Yi finally relaxed.
The plain porridge was tasteless, and Qiao Yi, enduring it, drank half a bowl before throwing it aside.
Hound was trying hard to persuade Qiao Yi to drink a bit more when Lu Yanchuan pushed the door open and walked in.
Qiao Yi looked up, their eyes met, and both felt an indescribable sensation in their hearts.
Hound looked at Lu Yanchuan and then at Qiao Yi, suddenly feeling as if he was shining brightly.
"I brought some food; I figured you wouldn’t like the hospital’s, try it while it’s hot."
Lu Yanchuan walked in, brought out two lunch boxes from behind, and upon opening them, a delicious smell of food wafted through the air.
Indeed, it was hundreds of times better than the hospital’s cafeteria food.
Qiao Yi, not severely injured, just weakened from lying down for a few days, fell asleep again shortly after eating.
Watching Qiao Yi fall asleep, Lu Yanchuan left the hospital room with Hound.
"Where are they?"
"They’ve been locked up, and Mr. and Mrs. Bai are outside right now, wanting to see you, boss."
"Go tell them, it’s impossible for Bai Lingling to return home; considering our past relationship, I won’t hold the Bai Family accountable."
If it was not for the years-long relationship with Lu Xiaohua and Zhao Liting, Lu Yanchuan would not even spare the Bai Family.
This time, to only hold Bai Lingling accountable, was already showing mercy.
Blame can only be placed on Bai Lingling herself; if she hadn’t harbored ill intentions, pulling at Qiao Yi as they ran out, Qiao Yi wouldn’t have nearly lost her life.
Now seeing that Qiao Yi was largely unscathed, given the circumstances at that time, if they had emerged just one second later, they would have been blown to pieces!
Hound conveyed Lu Yanchuan’s message exactly to Mr. and Mrs. Bai, and, of course, Hound kindly informed this couple of Bai Lingling’s actions!
"If you understand what our boss means, then you should know what to do!"
