Xiang Wan was saved!
The hotel urgently activated the fire emergency plan, and the fire was extinguished before the fire arrived.
With such a big event, Xing Feifei's 18th birthday party became even more exciting. The guests watched the fire, discussing and guessing about the cause of the fire.
The hotel quickly stated that after testing, it was the fire caused by the aging circuit.
The spread of the fire was not large, and the fire was quickly brought under control, causing no casualties.
The hotel's crisis public relations did a good job, and the power supply was quickly restored to appease the guests.
In this way, doubts gradually diminished.
When Xiang Wan returned to the lobby in shock, a hotel manager came to her, apologized with a smile, and said he would give her some financial compensation.
Xiang Wan waved his hand, "No need. Nothing happened to me."
The manager smiled professionally, expressed their company's apology again, and then said, "Madam, please leave your name and contact information. When we come out with a compensation plan, I can contact you to discuss specific matters..."
Xiang Wan frowned, glanced at him, no longer refused, and wrote to him.
"Thank you, Ms. Xiang." The manager smiled slightly, paused, and said suddenly, "If we were all like you, our work would be much easier."
Xiang Wan was taken aback.
Then I heard Xing Feifei's angry roar.
"I don't accept it, I don't accept it! No matter how much you pay, you can't make up for my perfect eighteenth birthday!"
Obviously, the hotel was also negotiating with them, but they were rejected.
At this time, no one in the banquet hall dispersed, and the frightened guests did not leave in a hurry.
But Xing Feifei started arguing with others, can't the interrupted birthday party continue
Tan Yuechun comforted the guests with a smile, then quietly pulled Xing Feifei, and said to the hotel: "How to solve this matter, we will talk about it later. My daughter's birthday party is not over yet, please do it well aftermath."
"Okay." The manager bowed, with a very friendly attitude, "We will try our best to cooperate."
…
The host of ceremonies, Namy, came on stage, and the interrupted birthday show resumed.
Xiang Wan looked around and found that the impeller was no longer there.
He should have left after singing the song. I just don't know if it was before the fire or after the fire...
"Wanwan." Fang Yuanyuan appeared out of nowhere and sighed in surprise, "Are you alright?"
"fine."
"Scared me to death! What the hell, why did it catch fire all of a sudden?"
Why did it catch fire all of a sudden? Xiang Wan also wanted to know.
She replayed the scene of the accident several times in her mind, but she couldn't find any useful clues. Under the eyes of everyone, sympathy or attention, she could only lower her head and play with her phone in embarrassment...
At this time, a WeChat message from Cheng Zheng came over.
"Are you hurt?"
Xiang Wan was silent, and replied, "No."
"Are you intimidated?"
It's not scary, it's fake.
But if it was scary, it was too intimate.
She replied lightly with a "doesn't matter" GIF.
End of topic.
Cheng Zheng didn't send any more messages, and no one came over.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall was much weaker than before the accident. Si Li worked hard to warm up the scene, wanting to explode his lungs. Xiang Wan looked at it for a while, and then sat down impatiently.
"Mom, I'm not feeling well, I want to go back first."
If something like this happens, even if she leaves, no one will say anything.
Xiang Wan got this right. Sure enough, Tan Yunchun agreed without saying a word.
"Why don't you go to Mom's place? Mom will cook delicious food for you, you won't be surprised..."
"No need, Mom. I'm not injured, but I'm a little tired." Xiang Wan glanced at the singing and laughing stage, "You stay and help Auntie pack up and see off the guests, and Yuanyuan will go back with me."
"Yes, yes, second aunt, you can rest assured that I will take care of your cousin!" Fang Yuanyuan also had grass growing in her heart, and when she said to leave, her face was full of excitement.
"Then... okay." Tan Yunchun did not refuse, but looked Xiang Wan up and down, "Are you all right?"
"You can rest assured!"
Tan Yunchun breathed a sigh of relief, and gave a few more instructions.
Xiang Wan responded one by one, then winked at Fang Yuanyuan.
From the time Xiang Wan was rescued by Forsythia until now, the hotel manager has come to offer condolences, but my aunt's family has not had a word of comfort.
Maybe there are too many guests and too busy. But more importantly, she is not that important.
Xiang Wan understood, and didn't care too much, and left the banquet hall silently with Fang Yuanyuan.
At the gate of the hotel, I ran into Forsythia and Xing Liehuo. The couple were holding hands and waiting for the driver.
Xiang Wan walked over and expressed his thanks to Forsythia once again.
"Don't be so polite, I'm ashamed if you are like this!"
"It should be, there are really not many people like you who are brave enough to stand up for righteousness..."
While Xiang Wan was talking, there was a sudden "beep" from the horn behind him.
A car came slowly and stopped in front of the hotel.
The man who got out of the car had a stern face, tall and straight, long legs with charming lines, and a pair of slightly closed eyes. Under the bright lights, there seemed to be a kind of seductive power, making people unable to look away when they looked at her...
Bai Muchuan
Xiang Wan was slightly taken aback.
He walked closer and stood in front of her.
"Are you okay?"
Seeing him on this night of narrow escape, Xiang Wan's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't know what to say.
Even more curious, why did he know something was wrong with her
Xiang Wan shook his head, squinted his eyes and looked at him, "Why did you come?"
Bai Muchuan glanced at her without explaining. Xiang Wan looked sideways at Fang Yuanyuan, Fang Yuanyuan shook her head, took a step back, and tilted her head innocently, indicating that it had nothing to do with her.
For a moment, Xiang Wan was a little stiff.
The news of Bai Muchuan came quickly, and the people also came quickly, wouldn't it be too weird? !
She looked at him strangely, but Bai Muchuan turned his eyes away from her face and looked at Xing Liehuo who was silent beside him.
"haven't seen you for a long time!"
Uh, they know each other
Xiang Wan turned her head, looked at Xing Liehuo, and then at Bai Muchuan, wondering what the relationship between these two people was.
Xing Liehuo smiled, "Long time no see!"
silence. Several people blocked the door.
After a moment of hesitation, Bai Muchuan raised his eyebrows: "Do you still mind?"
Xing Liehuo: "It's been so many years! What else do you mind..."
The people next to them did not understand what these two people said.
But they didn't seem to want to explain, they looked at each other, thousands of words slipped from the bottom of their eyes, and they didn't speak a word.
After a while, Bai Muchuan let out a low laugh and lazily extended the invitation.
"Tonight, I invite you for a supper."
Xing Liehuo did not refuse, "Okay."
"I'll call later. I have to do something now."
Bai Muchuan pointed to the hotel, and Xing Liehuo nodded, looking at him with a slightly heavy face.
At this time, the driver drove over and said goodbye to each other, and Xing Liehuo took Forsythia away.
Looking at the scene at the door, Xiang Wan felt that their relationship was a bit weird. It doesn't look particularly enthusiastic, but in his bones, he seems to be extremely familiar. Moreover, people like Xing Liehuo would casually agree to have supper, and it wouldn't be a particularly strange relationship...
"Let's go!" Bai Muchuan said suddenly, "Go in!"
Xiang Wan was startled and looked at him, "I'm going to leave."
Bai Muchuan smiled coldly, "You are interested in other people's cases, but not in your own crime scene?"
Crime scene? Is it that serious
Xiang Wan was not a person who thought of the worst in everything.
Especially since she considers herself to be an ordinary and simple person, who has never offended anyone, how could anyone plan to harm her
"What are you suspecting?"
"What do you think?" Bai Muchuan asked back, and then smiled, "Why aren't you so stupid!"
Arson, she guessed just now.
But she was the only one in the bathroom when the incident happened, who set the fire
Xiang Wan was more willing to believe it was an accident, but Bai Muchuan called her, and she couldn't refuse in terms of job responsibilities.
"Yuanyuan, you..." Xiang Wan looked at Fang Yuanyuan in embarrassment, "How about..."
"I know! Don't make light bulbs!" Fang Yuanyuan smiled with her mouth open, "I'm going back to continue to eat and drink, be careful!" After that, she squeezed her hand and turned her head with a smile, "Bai Police officer, my cousin was frightened today, her face turned pale just now, and she was trembling, please take care of her... "
"must!"
Fang Yuanyuan winked and walked away.
Xiang Wan and Bai Muchuan looked at each other and followed without saying a word.
The location of the restroom where the accident happened in the hotel has been put on the isolation line by the hotel, and the aftermath is being dealt with.
Bai Muchuan showed his police officer ID to the hotel manager, "We need to take a look at the scene."
That manager happened to be the one who approached Xiang Wan to connect with the compensation issue.
He glanced at Bai Muchuan who was beside Xiang Wan strangely, and then asked Xiang Wan, "Ms. Xiang, are you also a policeman?"
Just as Xiang Wan wanted to deny it, Bai Muchuan took it calmly, "Yes. The police are working, please cooperate."
The manager was stunned, and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, two police officers, this way!"
The burned toilet was no longer what it looked like when Xiang Wan escaped.
There were about a dozen hotel staff busy on the scene, carrying out the burnt things one by one, washing, flushing, wiring... People come and go, where can I find any traces
Bai Muchuan frowned deeply, looked at the scene, and went down to the security room to check the surveillance under the leadership of the hotel manager. There was a monitor in the corridor outside the bathroom, and nothing unusual was found, but there was no monitor in the bathroom, and nothing could be found. The manager repeatedly expressed his apologies to Xiang Wan, saying that the accident was the hotel's responsibility and that it was a mistake caused by their failure to do a good job of maintenance, and that he would definitely compensate.
He thought that Xiang Wan brought a policeman here to find fault, in order to demand more compensation.
Xiang Wan sensed the potential lines in his tone, which was a little awkward and hard to point out.
Bai Muchuan was so unconcerned, he listened carefully to Xiang Wan's account of the incident, frowned, and asked the manager, "How did you determine the responsibility for the cause of the accident?"
Manager: "The circuit is aging!"
Bai Muchuan stared, "The responsibility of the fire department?"
Manager: "Unanimously agreed."
Bai Muchuan squinted his eyes, didn't say much, glanced at the busy workers at the scene, turned his head towards Wan and said, "Let's go!"
Xiang Wan followed silently, and when she reached a place where there was no one outside, she stopped, "Where else should I go?"
Bai Muchuan: "Eat supper!"
Xiang Wan: ...
Don't you think it's strange that the two of them had such an awkward fight, and went to eat supper together again
"I'm full. I'm not hungry." Xiang Wan was suspicious of Bai Muchuan's sudden invitation, and refused to accept it. "If the Bai team has nothing to do, I'll go back first."
Bai Muchuan took a deep look at her without forcing it.
But as soon as she walked out of the hotel, the person who forced her called.
Lian Qiao warmly invited her, "Two men have a date for dinner, do you think I'm embarrassed and uncomfortable with a woman next to me? You just come to accompany me."
Xiang Wan: "..."
Lianqiao's tone was as forthright as her personality, "Don't come here, if you don't come, turn your face right away!"
The benefactor has a purpose, how can Xiang Wan not accept it
After glancing at Bai Muchuan, she remained silent and followed Bai Muchuan into the car.
If she doesn't ask, it doesn't mean she doesn't know. Although Lianqiao saved her today, she did not give Lianqiao her contact information, how could she directly call her mobile phone
The car drove away from the hotel, there was no words all the way, only the soothing voice flowing slowly...
The two were silent for a long time, and Xiang Wan suddenly asked, "What's your relationship with that Xing Liehuo?"
Bai Muchuan looked ahead expressionlessly: "Comrade comrade."
Xiang Wan knew that he had been a soldier, but he didn't know the details of his service at all.
Frowning and thinking about it, she also made things difficult for him, "But looking at the relationship between you two, it's weird..."
Bai Muchuan's eyes darkened slightly, "At that time, the Red Thorn Special Forces had just been formed. He needed me very much. I chose to change jobs."
One sentence explains it thoroughly.
Xiang Wan understood, "So, you guys had a conflict?"
"It's not a conflict." Bai Muchuan said lightly, his hands on the steering wheel were slightly clenched, "It's just that there was a fight."
"..."
A fight is not called a contradiction
Hehehe! Xiang Wan was overwhelmed with admiration for Officer Bai's logical ability.
She thought that Bai Muchuan was just being perfunctory, but soon she realized that she was wrong.
He didn't lie to her, and that sentence was not a joke.
There are really such comrades in arms in this world, there are disputes, no contradictions. They are taking different paths, but the friendship is still there. Even though the world has changed, the human relationship has not changed.
This is probably the relationship between carrying a gun together, right? Ordinary yet great!
The late-night supper invited by Bai Muchuan was really not high-style, and it completely exceeded Xiang Wan's expectations—
An ordinary string shop, except that it has a good reputation in Jincheng recently, the decoration and environment are very average.
There is no private room in the Chuan Chuan shop, the lobby is full of people, and the people sitting in it are all connected to the earth.
The four of them were seated by the window, blending in the noise and excitement. Forsythia was very excited, eating spicy food was very enjoyable, and Xiang Wan would occasionally cooperate with her to say a few words, and the main energy was also on eating. There are only two men who are always acting strangely and have no communication, as if they haven't gotten over the entanglement in the past.
"I heard that you are not in Red Thorn anymore?"
It took some time before Xiang Wan heard Bai Muchuan's voice.
"Yeah. It's gone." Xing Liehuo looked at him, "The barracks are made of iron, and the soldiers are flowing."
Bai Muchuan chuckled, "As long as the red thorns remain the same as before, that's fine."
Xing Liehuo's eyes deepened, "The red thorn is still the original red thorn. Can you say the reason why you refused to say it back then?"
Bai Muchuan's hand holding the skewer froze slightly.
The atmosphere froze immediately!
Xiang Wan pricked up his ears, and was also very curious. For a man who obviously had a military complex, what prompted him to change careers and become a criminal policeman
Bai Muchuan was silent.
After a while, the string in his hand slipped into the bowl, bringing out a chuckle that he didn't care about.
"It was never my wish to go to the army. It is my dream to be a criminal police officer."
Xing Liehuo stared at him without speaking.
Bai Muchuan looked at him, but also remained motionless.
The two confronted each other like this. If this wasn't a hot pot restaurant, they might have to fight again. The atmosphere was so gloomy that it felt like a stone had been crushed, even Lianqiao, who had been looking after her food, raised her head, "Brother Huo..."
When Xing Liehuo heard his wife's call, his face looked a little better.
"Humph! You are a very good boy. After all these years, I have been worried about you!"
Bai Muchuan laughed, "You don't have to mind it so much, do you? You are a generous person!"
Xing Liehuo raised his eyebrows, "Great? From the establishment of the Red Thorn to today, there have always been only people who are not wanted by the Red Thorn, and people who will leave the Red Thorn if they die or die! I just want to keep it..."
Speaking of this, Xing Liehuo couldn't continue.
Bai Muchuan's eye circles were also slightly red.
However, he laughed!
"Hey!" He took a breath casually, and put a bunch of pepper and mutton into Xing Liehuo's bowl, "Yes, yes, eat this piece of beef and make up for your injured self-esteem. Let's end this matter. Now! Whoever mentions it in the future will be the grandson!"
"..." Xing Liehuo glared at him with a dark face.
But what he wanted to say, he didn't say it.
Lianqiao was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly and pointed at Bai Muchuan.
"Wonderful! You're so jealous! He's the only one who needs to be dealt with like this!"
"..." How can there be such an elbow turned outward
Xing Liehuo gave her a cold gouged look, then looked at Bai Muchuan for a moment, then suddenly changed the topic, "I came to Jincheng this time to contribute to your dream!"
"Huh?" Bai Muchuan was slightly taken aback, "Me?"
"You!" Xing Liehuo snorted, "Otherwise I'm so free? Come to ask you to fuck?"
"Heh!" Bai Muchuan rubbed his forehead with his fingers, and seemed to be unable to help laughing, "You still haven't changed, your temper from back then! Tell me, what's the matter?"
Xing Liehuo pointed to the boiling red pot in front of him, "We don't talk about business at the dinner table, I will go to your office to discuss in detail tomorrow."
So formal
Bai Muchuan narrowed his eyes, nodded for a long time.
He had some guesses in his heart, so he didn't ask, just smiled, and turned to ask Xiang Wan next to him, "What dish do you want, I'll get it?"
The most convenient thing about kebabs is that you can take the dishes yourself. You can take what you like to eat, and take out as many skewers as you like. There is a lot more room for choice than hot pot.
However, when they were talking, Xiang Wan had already eaten a lot, he was stunned for a moment, and smiled.
"No thanks."
Bai Muchuan squinted at her, "You're so skinny, eat more!"
"..."
thin? She is too fat!
Bai Muchuan ignored her white eyes, glanced at her, and asked, "Oyster mushroom, coriander beef, do you want anything else?"
"..." Xiang Wan was embarrassed.
These two dishes were the ones she ate the most just now.
But he clearly knew that Mu Chuan didn't look at her, so why did he know
Also, if she remembers correctly, she and Mr. Bai haven't reconciled to such a close degree. Could it be that he just selectively forgot
"Why are you so stupid? Wait!" Bai Muchuan ignored her and got up to get the food.
Xiang Wan: ...
