At this time, in the club's private room.
By 8:05, the friends expressed their dissatisfaction with Si Yiyan's lateness.
The meeting was originally scheduled for 8 o'clock, and they arrived at around 7:40, so it wouldn't have hurt them to wait for the host, but the problem was that they had to wait from 7:40 until after 8 o'clock.
So, when it comes to punctuality, the guys put a big XX on Si Yiyan’s report card!
The sight of her friends sharpening their knives made Wen Xinya break out in a cold sweat, and she quickly explained, "He is usually very punctual. He has never been late when we date. He just came back from Country E and has a lot of things to do. He was held up by other things before, and it's not intentional that he's late. He's on his way now and will be here soon."
Well! She really hadn't made many appointments with Si Yiyan, but Si Yiyan was never a person who was not punctual. Besides, he knew the importance of things and would definitely know the importance of today's meeting. The only explanation was that his previous video conference was very important and he had no way to refuse.
Wen Xinya's explanation did not make her friends understand.
Zhou Tianyu gnashed her teeth and said in dissatisfaction: "He dared to play late to me when he met my family for the first time. I will show you how I will punish him later."
Xu Tongxuan was peeling an apple with a shiny white fruit knife: "Men are like apples in your hands. You have to peel them to know how powerful they are."
Ling Qingxuan looked at Xu Tongxuan's weird smile, her white teeth were as white as a knife, and he couldn't help but shudder: "If you ask me, this guy is really not very kind. He turned a good meeting with his mother's family into a scene of swords and sabers."
Han Mofeng whistled with a certain gloating attitude: "Xinya, it seems that your boyfriend is not that good. Do you want to consider kicking him out and finding another one?"
Since his brother was away, he had no choice but to use the revolutionary friendship of his good friend from Country Z to poach people for his brother.
Sister Du blinked her big, innocent eyes and looked at Han Mofeng: "You look like you really want Xinya to break up with her boyfriend."
The innocent girl Du revealed Han Mofeng's evil and dark thoughts in one sentence.
Han Mofeng quickly took Du's hand and explained to her how pure and kind he was, and how heinous a crime it was that Xinya's boyfriend was late.
Only Gu Junlin remained calm.
At this moment, Gu Junlin's glass heart was shattered because of what Du Meizhi said before. In everyone's eyes, he seemed very powerful, a top male god who was far ahead of him. His methods of pursuing women seemed to be very clever. Mr. Si, who was far ahead of him, was late, which made everyone dissatisfied. His heart was filled with a strange sense of balance.
The legendary male god is not that great!
When it comes to punctuality, he is miles ahead of him!
The friends expressed their dissatisfaction one after another.
Wen Xinya suddenly smelled a burst of smoke and asked, "Do you smell anything strange?"
Zhou Tianyu glared at her fiercely and said, "I sue you, don't deliberately change the subject."
Du Meizhi also said: "I seem to..."
Xu Tongxuan shook the shiny white knife in her hand and smiled gently and amiably: "Don't say good things for her."
Although Du Zhimei is sharp, her sympathy is extremely excessive. Wen Ya cannot take any opportunity to use Du Zhimei to escape the blame.
At this time, Gu Junlin also noticed something was wrong and sniffed the air: "It seems to smell like smoke."
Wen Xinya's heart was filled with alarm. She suddenly stood up from the sofa, ran to the window, pulled open the curtains, opened the window, stuck her head out, and saw thick smoke billowing from the floor above theirs.
Her expression suddenly turned ugly: "There's a fire upstairs. It looks like the fire is quite serious. The fire will soon spread. Let's go quickly."
Several people's faces changed. Du Ruo had always been timid, and when he heard about the fire, he was so scared that his face turned pale.
Wen Xinya held her hand and said, "Ruoruo, don't be afraid. The fire hasn't spread here yet."
Several people hurriedly picked up their things, opened the door of the private room, and ran out.
The fire spread quickly, and the entire club was surrounded by thick smoke. The fire had already spread to the floor where they were.
By this time, the news of the fire had spread, and the aisles of the club were filled with guests fleeing in panic. The club was not too big, and the aisles were not wide either. There were quite a few service staff and guests, and everyone was running away in panic, and collisions, falls, and tramplings occurred constantly.
Screaming, cursing, and complaints were heard everywhere.
At this time, everyone ran to the elevator entrance, and a few panicked guests wanted to take the elevator to leave.
Wen Xinya quickly stopped them loudly: "Everyone take the stairs, don't take the elevator. Elevators are prone to malfunction at a fire scene."
However, a few people simply didn't listen.
Wen Xinya is not a saint, but she will not ignore any life, so she stuffed Du Meizhi's hand into Zhou Tianyu's hand, rushed to the elevator door, pulled out a middle-aged woman who had already entered the elevator, and stopped the two people who were about to enter the elevator outside.
"You guys are going to die!"
Several people woke up as if from a dream.
"Don't panic, there is a safe passage here, everyone evacuate here."
This building has more than ten floors in total, and is relatively densely populated. Wen Xinya and the others are on the fifth floor, which is not too high, but the fire is spreading more and more violently at this time. The entire floor is filled with billowing thick smoke, which makes people's eyes dizzy and choking sounds are heard everywhere.
"Run! The fire has spread." Someone screamed.
There was quite a commotion among the fleeing crowd. Wen Xinya witnessed the life-and-death situation and the cruelty of life. The narrow stairs were filled with the sounds of pushing and cursing. She even saw a middle-aged woman who was pushed by a man and rolled down the stairs with a bloody head.
Du Ruo screamed, quickly shook off Wen Xinya's hand, and ran down the stairs.
As a doctor, she could not ignore any injured person who appeared before her.
Wen Xinya quickly chased after him: "Ruoruo... Ruoruo..."
At this time, Du Ruo was squatting on the ground, using her special acupoint massage technique to stop the bleeding for the middle-aged woman. In the thick smoke, she forgot that she was in deep danger. Her eyes were red from the smoke, her nose kept dripping, and her throat kept making choking sounds. She was suddenly moved and stayed by Ruo Ruo's side to prevent anyone from bumping into her and stepping on her.
However, she felt that she was worrying too much, because the people who were fleeing behind, in groups, saw this scene, and although they did not come forward to help, they automatically avoided colliding with Ruoruo.
People fled in waves, and gradually there were not many people left.
Wen Xinya judged from the thick smoke that kept pouring into the stairs that the fire would soon spread toward them. There was a lot of noisy noise outside, and she also heard the sound of a fire truck.
