My Children Are Fierce and Adorable!

Chapter 330: Fire in the Middle of the Night

Needless to say, Ye Lulu was quite satisfied with this ancient ‘hotel room.’ She felt that it was quite good and comfortable. It looked clean.

“Then let’s each have a bed tonight.” Ye Lulu blinked and turned around. She pretended to be innocent and said to Guan Chibei, “This is a two-person room. It’s not good to waste a bed, right?”

Guan Chibei looked at her calmly and said, “Got it.”

Of course, he could only agree to her request.

She did not know that he had also changed his soul and thought that he was still the original owner of Guan Chibei’s body. Of course, she was worried about their relationship and wanted to find an excuse.

However, he knew that there was a different person in her body. He naturally knew that their current relationship was not of a husband and wife.

Ye Lulu smiled shyly, but her eyes flashed with a victorious smile. She pretended to not care and went to the bed behind the screen.

After resting in the inn for a while, the two of them went to the new shop and told the servants at the Golden Inn that they might return very late tonight.

The night was brightly lit. As expected, they were busy until midnight.

The artisans had finished their work and returned. It was only then that Ye Lulu and Guan Chibei walked to the Golden Inn in the dark.

The Golden Inn was open throughout the night because Yuan City was a special transportation hub. People could stay in the inn at any time, which made it convenient for Ye Lulu and the rest.

After entering their room and washing up, Ye Lulu and Guan Chibei planned to sleep on their separate beds.

It quietened down. When the lights were about to be switched off, there was indeed an ambiguous atmosphere in the room…

This was unavoidable.

Ye Lulu coughed softly in her heart and told herself that it was fine. After all, there was a screen separating them. Even though the lights were still on, she could only see a shadow on the other side, let alone turn off the lights. It would be so dark that she couldn’t see anything.

However, at this moment…

The crescent moon was hanging high outside. It was already past midnight, and the streets of Yuan City were dark. Only the light from lanterns hung at the open door of the inn was a little bright.

Coincidentally, in a dark alley diagonally opposite the Golden Inn, there was a faint fire. It was unknown what it was. It was late at night and it was quiet. No one was walking around.

Woof!

In the dark night, there was a sudden painful barking that made one’s blood run cold.

In the room, Ye Lulu paused in her actions of switching off the lights. Her heart skipped a beat and she instinctively said, “Where did this dog bark from? It sounds so tragic. It seems to be in pain.”

Guan Chibei’s expression was calm as he said, “It’s fine. Perhaps something happened to a dog from some family.”

Ye Lulu nodded.

However, outside the darkness, there was another dog barking.

The barking was really shrill and painful. It made one shiver involuntarily and feel uneasy.

A few people were woken up from their sleep. “What’s that sound?”

Ye Lulu frowned and said, “It sounds really tragic.”

With that, Ye Lulu blew out the candle and the room fell into darkness.

‘Cough, cough.’ Ye Lulu coughed in her heart and her face heated up. There was no choice. She had never shared a room with an adult man like this in her two lifetimes.

Their identities were still so sensitive, and they had been ambiguous for a long time… Also, when the black panther suddenly appeared in the bathroom previously, it was even more…

One was always full of imagination at night.

As soon as the lights were off, Ye Lulu could not help but think of the experiences she had with Guan Chibei. She felt like she was on fire. Moreover, she felt strange, mainly because she felt uncomfortable.

She did not know if Guan Chibei felt this way.

She could not see him in the darkness, and Guan Chibei was silent on the other side of the screen.

At this moment.

Outside, on the dark street.

In the alley dimly lit by fire, another miserable dog bark sounded!

This barking pierced through the darkness. Many people in the surroundings were jolted awake. This also attracted the attention of a servant guarding the door of the Golden Inn.

“Where did this sound come from? Which dog is it? It’s too noisy and frightening. Our customers are going to wake up.”

The servant felt that the barking was very close and walked out of the inn with an impatient expression. He saw a fire in the alley diagonally opposite and it seemed that the barking was coming from there.

“Who are you? What are you doing in the alley so late at night?!”

The servant was shocked. There was really someone there. It was already past midnight. Who was there and what was going on?!

The servant was still a little wary. As he turned around and shouted, “Someone! Let’s go over and take a look!”, he had already run towards the alley. “Who is it? Don’t think of running!”

“This alley has a dead end. You probably don’t know that. You definitely don’t live nearby. Where are you from? Why are you so sneaky? Don’t run. You definitely can’t escape!”

The fire in the alley flickered and hurried footsteps sounded as if someone was really turning around and fleeing into the alley.

As the servant had expected, there was no way out. At the end of the alley was an extremely tall building. On the front was a pawn shop. There was no way out.

There was a flurry of footsteps. At the same time, a few servants ran out of the Golden Inn.

The one in the lead had already run close to the alley. “Who are you? Come out!”

The alley was silent for a moment.

The servant from the Golden Inn felt that it was impossible for the people inside to escape.

As expected, in the next moment, a pitch-black figure ran out of the alley. He was wearing black clothes that blended into the darkness, making it impossible to see his figure!

He ran very quickly. The servant held a lantern in his hand and took a few looks at that person’s shadow. He only saw that his running posture was very panicked, and his back was slightly bent. He looked very panicked and his footsteps were fast.

From the looks of his figure, he was thin. He was a little tall and straight, but he did not have a majestic figure.

His footsteps were also strong. Although he was panicking, he was not weak or anxious.

The other party rushed out with his back facing the servant. The servant was stunned and hurriedly ran after him. However, at this moment, that figure turned around slightly. As he was fleeing, he actually threw something at the Golden Inn opposite him.

There was fire! A burning fireball was thrown out!

The servant’s eyes widened.

However, no, it was not a fireball—that fireball would still move. It seemed to be struggling in unbearable pain. In the large fire, he seemed to see legs and a tail…

That human was strong. He rushed out and threw the fireball into the Golden Inn!

The servant stopped in his tracks and subconsciously hesitated for a moment. The fireball had been thrown into the inn! Should he immediately go in and extinguish it? Otherwise, wouldn’t there be a fire?

In just two seconds, the person in front had already run far away and he could not catch up.

The servant was right. After the fireball was thrown into the inn, thick smoke immediately rose.

“Damn, what is this?!”

The servants following behind also quickly turned a corner and returned to the inn.

They saw that the fireball… was really a living creature.

Looking at the shadow in the fire, it was probably a dog. Its entire body was burning. When the servant ran forward, he happened to meet the dog’s eyes in the fire.

Despair, pain, bitterness, and struggle caused the servant to suddenly stop. For a moment, fear and compassion filled his body.

The dog was still alive. In the next second, it started running around the inn due to the pain. As a result, the entire inn burst into flames!

The servants who came in later smelled something in the air and exclaimed, “There’s kerosene!”

That’s right. There was even kerosene on that dog!

Wherever it ran, fire followed. Parts of the inn started burning as soon as they were ignited, and its momentum was extremely strong!

The smell of kerosene wafted everywhere.

“Oh… Oh my.”

“Put out the fire, quick!”

In the blink of an eye, the servants standing by the door saw with their own eyes that the inn was starting to burn.

“Hurry up and put out the fire! It’s starting to burn!”

The servants were too panicked and immediately scattered to get water to put out the fire.

However, the dog was in too much pain. With its body burning, it actually started to run towards the stairs.

“Stop it!”

The servant panicked. If the fire reached the upper floor, it would be bad.

The boss behind the Golden Inn was a rich man in Yuan City. He would not come to the inn by himself at all. He had asked the shopkeeper to oversee the situation, but the shopkeeper had already returned home to rest.

No one could care less about this!

The servants were almost scared to death. They shouted for everyone. Half of them went to put out the fire, while the other half rushed into the hall to stop the dog completely wrapped in fire so that it wouldn’t run around and cause a bigger fire.

The hall quickly became chaotic. Furthermore, what was worse was that the inn was filled with wood. It started to burn quickly. Fire in some places turned very fierce. It looked a little powerful.

The servants were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweat. They were busy.

The smell of smoke rose as well. People staying at the inn, especially in ordinary rooms like Ye Lulu’s, quickly smelled it.

“Hmm…?”

Ye Lulu, who had already lay down, suddenly sat up and said, “Why does it smell like something is burning? Is something burning?”

At the same time, there was a commotion below.

A faint noise entered the room. Ye Lulu stood up and prepared to light the lamp. “What happened? I feel like something happened. It’s very noisy downstairs.”

“Something happened.” Guan Chibei’s deep voice sounded. He had also heard the commotion and smelled an unusual smell. Furthermore…

He could already feel a soul burning.

It was extremely painful and tragic.

“What’s wrong?” Ye Lulu turned on the light and the room lit up. She walked around the screen and saw that Guan Chibei had already stood up. His eyes were dark as she looked at him before walking to the door and opening it.

There was a louder sound and a stronger smell. Ye Lulu frowned and said, “There must be a fire.”

The servants in the inn were afraid that the matter would blow up, so they were all anxious to put out the fire. Then, they thought about controlling the situation so that they wouldn’t disturb the guests in the inn.

After all, the fire was not very strong. It was just a small fire. The inn was generally safe and the fire had been discovered in time. They could immediately use water to put out the fire.

Unexpectedly, because the scene was too chaotic, it alarmed some foreign merchants staying on the second floor. These foreign merchants didn’t know what was going on, so they were stunned and immediately shouted loudly.

“There’s a fire!”

That shout was loud and clear. It was simply filled with penetrative power. The person probably had a shocking lung capacity to create such an effect.

In an instant, the guests on every floor of the Golden Inn were in a mess. Those who had rested woke up from their sleep and stood up.

“What?! There’s a fire?”

“Ah, it looks like it. I smell smoke!”

“There’s really a fire! I see it! In the hall!”

“Oh my, could there be a fire below? The people upstairs can’t escape anymore!”

It was unknown who let out this sentence in panic. The guests on the floors above immediately panicked. More people rushed out of their rooms and could not calm down as they walked around the corridor. Some went to the window to see what was going on, while others tried to go downstairs.

There were people who went downstairs afraid of facing a fierce fire.

It was unknown who spread the word that the fire downstairs was so strong that the entire inn was about to burn down. The guests on the top floor, who were rich or noble, were instantly panicked.

Madam Rufei and her daughter walked out of the room in a panic surrounded by the secret guards. They wanted to know if there was a fire.

In the room next door, the extremely arrogant Nangong Yupiao also walked out of the room surrounded by the maidservants. Her face was filled with fear. When she came out, she asked, “What’s going on? Is there really a fire? How does this inn do business? There are so many people living here, but it can still catch fire! What should we do? Are we going to disregard the lives of so many people?”

Nangong Yupiao’s voice was filled with anger, and it felt like she was offended.

Madam Rufei was relatively calm. She instructed the secret guards to use their Qinggong to go downstairs to see how the situation was and if it was really serious.

A few secret guards flashed down the stairs at the same time. On the top floor, the panic was the heaviest. Almost everyone came out of their rooms, and it was a little chaotic. Madam Rufei protected Qin’er with one hand and looked at Nangong Yupiao worriedly.

“Yupiao, come over to Second Aunt’s side quickly. Let’s stay together.”

Madam Rufei felt that it would be better for everyone to gather together, regardless of whether they escaped together or not.

However, Nangong Yupiao looked at Madam Rufei and frowned. “No, Second Aunt. I just want to lean against the window. I can’t smell smoke.”
