Chapter 208 Who will save me?
Wake up.
Xue Wen is no longer by my side.
Wang Ma knocked on the door and brought in a bowl of soup.
"Madam, the master said you were exhausted from packing yesterday. He asked me to bring you a bowl of nourishing soup this morning, with some calming herbs in it. Please get some more sleep and rest."
Fu Ling looked embarrassed. She said she was tired from packing, but it was clearly Xue Wen who didn't know how to control himself last night.
Such a grown man, yet he acts like a hothead, staying up until three or four in the morning before finally falling asleep.
"What time did Brother Wen leave?"
Without hesitation, Wang Ma replied, "The master left at 6:30."
Fu Ling took the calming soup and drank it in small sips.
"How was he when he left? He only slept for three hours, so we don't know if he'll be able to handle it."
Aunt Wang smiled and said, "Sir looks very energetic. Madam, don't worry. Please finish your drink and rest for a while."
Fu Ling nodded; she was indeed still a little sleepy.
She handed the empty bowl she was drinking from to Wang Ma.
"Wang Ma, call me around noon, I need to go to the hospital to see Yanbin."
Wang Ma agreed, took the bowl, and left the room.
......
"Cough cough cough~"
"Ring ring ring~"
"Cough cough cough, Aunt Wang?"
Fu Ling's alarm clock rang.
She made this decision on a whim after finishing her soup and preparing to take a nap, afraid that she wouldn't wake up and would miss seeing Xue Yanbin.
"Luckily, I set an alarm."
She only noticed the strange thing in the room after turning off the alarm clock.
"Why is there so much opium? Is it Wang Ma?"
"Cough cough cough~ It's so choking."
Fu Ling was choked by the thick smoke and couldn't stop coughing.
She hurriedly got up, wanting to get out of the bedroom as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, the moment my hand touched the doorknob, it was jolted away by the scorching touch.
"Ah! So hot!"
Her palms were bright red, and the stinging pain brought her fully awake.
"Wang Ma, there's a fire!"
Thick smoke billowed from the crack in the door, and a wave of heat rushed in.
Fu Ling quickly grabbed the clothes at hand and stuffed them into the crack in the door to prevent the thick smoke from entering the bedroom.
"Cough cough cough~ What's going on?"
"Wang Ma? Are you there?"
"Cough cough~"
No, the room is filled with smoke, we need to open the windows!
Fu Ling bent down and ran to the window, then pushed it open.
This bedroom is on the third floor; it's impossible to jump down from that height.
She took out her phone and dialed the fire department.
The fire department responded quickly: "Hello, this is the fire command center."
Fu Ling leaned against the window, breathing in the fresh air.
"Help! I'm in Building 88 of Hengliu Villa District. My house is on fire. There's a lot of smoke, and I'm trapped in my bedroom and can't get out."
The fire command center immediately issued a dispatch order, and the firefighters were ready to go.
The operator on the other end of the phone did not hang up.
"Okay, the fire department has already dispatched personnel to Building 88 in the Hengliu Villa area."
"Please remain calm. Is there a bathroom or water source in the bedroom? If there is water, wet the blanket and block the door crack with it, open the window for ventilation and wait for rescue."
Water source? Fu Ling was stunned.
Their bedrooms have bathrooms.
But yesterday, while she was packing Xue Wen's clothes, the two of them got into the mood and ended up sleeping in the bedroom in the walk-in closet.
This bedroom has no bathroom or water supply, and contains a lot of wooden furniture.
"No, there is no water in this bedroom. I am in the second room on the west side of the third floor, facing the sun."
The operator continued, "How many people are in your household? Are you alone?"
Fu Ling didn't have time to think and instinctively answered the operator's questions.
“There were two people, me and the nanny, but I can’t hear the nanny’s voice now. I opened the window but I can’t see her in the yard. She might be trapped in one of the rooms.”
The operator continued, "Please open the windows for ventilation, do not do anything dangerous, and wait for rescue. Our team will arrive in 5 minutes."
Fu Ling nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay!"
After hanging up the phone, Fu Ling gripped the window frame and leaned out the window to breathe in the fresh air.
'Crackling' 'Crackling'
Upon hearing the sound, Fu Ling turned her head to look inside the house.
While she was making the call, the clothes hidden in the crack of the door caught fire due to the high temperature.
Right now, a corner under the door was being scorched by the flames, making a crackling sound.
This door... is also made of wood, it won't last long.
Fu Ling's gaze swept across the room, then she took out an iron clothes rack from the wardrobe and extinguished the burning clothes.
Then drag the heat-sensitive items away from the doorway.
This way, even if the door does catch fire, it can reduce the spread of the fire.
"Cough~ No, I have to throw all these things out."
Thinking of this, Fu Ling picked up the flammable items and ran to the window.
Before Fu Ling could throw the thing in her hand away...
"Boom!"
With a shattering sound of glass breaking, billowing black smoke rose from below, and the window was engulfed in flames.
Fu Ling stared wide-eyed and knelt dejectedly on the ground.
It's over, she's finished.
It's the downstairs room; the downstairs room has been completely overrun.
The flames burst through the tightly closed doors and windows on the second floor and spread from outside to Fu Ling's eyes.
'Crackling'
'Crackling'
The fire at the door grew larger, and the window, the only escape route, was also blocked.
Large tears welled up in her eyes, and even Fu Ling herself didn't know whether it was from the choking smoke or from the fear of death.
"No, no, my son is still in the hospital."
"Yes, Brother Wen, Brother Wen."
Fu Ling frantically found her phone, which had been thrown in the corner.
"Brother Wen, answer the phone. Xue Wen, answer the phone!"
All she got in response to the phone call was a cold busy tone.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is turned off. Please try again later."
"No, no, you have to answer the phone."
Fu Ling mechanically repeated the action of dialing the phone.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is turned off. Please try again later."
She didn't want to die, why? Why did the house catch fire? If she dies, what will happen to Yanbin? What will happen to Brother Wen?
"Cough cough cough, vomit, cough cough cough."
"Smoke, yes, we need to disperse the smoke."
Fu Ling struggled to get up and dismantled the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall.
The background board for the calligraphy and paintings is a hard, thin wooden board, and it is quite large.
Fu Ling picked up a wooden board and fanned the window, trying to blow out the thick smoke that had seeped into the room.
However, the fire downstairs was too intense, and this amount of wind power was far from enough.
"Waaaaah~"
The sound of fire sirens came through, which Fu Ling clearly caught.
"They're here! The firefighters are here! They're finally here! Waaaaaah!"
Fu Ling burst into tears of joy.
It should be quick from the doorway to here; she's saved.
But the sirens didn't get as close as he expected.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes...
The room was gradually filled with smoke, and Fu Ling's vision became increasingly blurry.
Why hasn't the rescue arrived yet? Who can save me?
The fire at the window grew larger and larger, with flames burning into the room from outside. The curtains by the window were already engulfed by the raging fire.
The door collapsed at that moment, and scorching flames rushed into the room.
Fu Ling found it increasingly difficult to breathe.
"Brother Wen, Yanbin, Mom and Dad..."
"Help...help me..."
