Unfortunately, the slippers on Lin Mai's feet were not as strong as Fang Zhuoran's. One slipper even flew away and he fell to the ground.
The fire downstairs was far more terrifying than the one in the corridor on the third floor, and it was comparable to the fire in her office.
Even the cement floor was burned like a soldering iron, so hot that she almost became a teppanyaki and bounced off the ground.
She was too slow. She didn't want to drag down Fang Zhuoran and was afraid that both of them would be killed in the fire.
So he pushed Fang Zhuoran: "Run quickly and leave me alone!"
Fang Zhuoran's eyes were filled with fire: "I risked my life and rushed up, was it just to escape alone!"
Without saying a word, he picked up Lin Mai and ran downstairs.
Although Lin Mai was lying head down and almost vomiting from the jolt, his heart was full of happiness and emotion.
In this life, who doesn’t want to find a partner who won’t let go of you even if it’s life or death?
The fire on the second floor became more intense, and Lin Mai smelled the smell of protein from burned hair.
Fang Zhuoran's hair must have been burned. Her head was in a wet quilt and her hair couldn't be burned.
When Fang Zhuoran carried Lin Mai all the way to the first floor, Lin Mai finally heard the sound of the fire truck.
No wonder the fire trucks come so slowly every time.
In this era, there are not many firefighting stations in Jiangcheng, and it takes time for fire engines to travel long distances.
When everyone saw that Fang Zhuoran had rescued Lin Mai, they burst into cheers.
Many employees gathered around and asked Lin Mai with concern whether he had been burned.
Lin Mai, who had breathed fresh air, had been placed on the ground by Fang Zhuoran.
She shook her head: "I'm okay. I'm afraid Professor Fang has burns on his body. I have to accompany him to the hospital for a checkup."
After that, he took Fang Zhuoran's hand and walked to the carport.
Fang Zhuoran hesitated: "You don't handle matters in the factory?"
"Those things can be dealt with tomorrow."
Let alone catching the arsonist, Lin Mai didn't want to care about it at the moment even if the sky fell. In her eyes, nothing was more important than Fang Zhuoran.
Along with the fire trucks, reporters from TV stations and several newspapers arrived.
They were scattered around the fire scene, taking photos, or interviewing workers and cadres in the factory.
Niu Lili was also among these reporters. She saw Lin Mai at a glance and ran over to stop her and Fang Zhuoran.
Half concerned and half interviewing, he pointed at Lin Mai's right hand and said, "Your hand is bleeding."
Fang Zhuoran and Lin Mai looked at her right hand at the same time.
There was a cut on the back of his right hand, and blood was dripping from it. He probably didn't pay attention when he was running for his life.
Fang Zhuoran suddenly became nervous and took out a clean checkered handkerchief from his pocket to bandage her.
Niu Lili wrote down "one wounded person" in the interview book very seriously.
Then he raised his head and wanted to continue the interview, but was coldly rejected by Fang Zhuoran.
His face was so gloomy that Niu Lili didn't dare to be tough. She watched them go to the garage to get their bicycles and ride away together.
When they arrived at the hospital, because Lin Mai lost all her slippers while escaping, Fang Zhuoran carried her to the emergency department.
Lin Mai struggled to think: "Why are you hugging me? It's not like I have no feet or legs."
"But you don't have shoes, what if your foot gets pricked while walking?"
This sounded so reasonable that Lin Mai had no choice but to let him go.
But when seeing a doctor, Lin Mai saw that Fang Zhuoran was admitted to the surgical emergency department. She was surprised and asked: "Shouldn't he be admitted to the burn department?"
Fang Zhuoran explained: "Your injuries are surgical."
She said in his arms: "We are here to look at your burns. My little injury is fine."
Fang Zhuoran said without hesitation: "If I say something happens, it will happen!"
Lin Mai couldn't resist him and had no choice but to obey him.
When he was carrying her to the emergency room, two young men waiting in line to see Lin Mai thought Lin Mai was in bad condition and wanted to give their place to her, but Fang Zhuoran refused.
Lin Mai's minor injuries didn't deserve her priority as an emergency room patient.
He just treasures her.
When the emergency doctor took off the handkerchief wrapped around Lin Mai's wound, the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably several times.
The small wound has scabbed over and will be healed later.
But Professor Fang was staring at him intensely, and he did not dare to complain that Lin Mai's injury was too minor.
While applying iodine to Lin Mai's wound, he asked Fang Zhuoran for his opinion: "In this case, should I have tetanus?"
When Lin Mai heard this, his face turned slightly pale and he looked at Fang Zhuoran for help.
Fang Zhuoran hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's fight."
Although Lin Mai's wound was not big, he was worried that it was scratched by rusty iron or metal.
Then you must have tetanus, otherwise it will be very dangerous if you are infected with Tetanus bacilli.
With a pale face, Lin Mai was pulled by Fang Zhuoran to get a tetanus shot.
The head nurse gave her the injection herself.
Fang Zhuoran knew that Lin Mai was afraid of injections, so before she could see the injection medicine the head nurse was holding, he used a big hand to cover her eyes.
Lin Mai's long eyelashes brushed against his palms. It was itchy, but also very comfortable, with a tingling sensation.
Tetanus shots can be given not only on the buttocks, but also on the deltoid muscle of the upper arm.
When the head nurse was trying to smooth out Lin Mai's sleeves, Lin Mai was so nervous that he dug his toes into the ground.
The head nurse smiled and said, "I'm afraid of injections. It won't hurt."
Lin Maisan smiled.
Fang Zhuoran pressed her little head and pushed it into his chest.
Lin Mai suddenly heard the sound of his heart beating vigorously.
Immediately afterwards, she felt a pain on the back of her hand. At the moment when she was most relaxed, the needle pierced the flesh.
"Okay, doesn't it hurt?" the head nurse said with a smile, and then went to give injections to other patients.
The next step was to show Fang Zhuoran his burns.
Not only did he have several blisters on the back of his hands, but his shirt also had many small holes burned by the sparks.
Every small hole was left with shocking burns. The burns were like cigarette butts, and it hurt just to look at them.
Fortunately, the burn was not serious and I only needed to apply burn medicine for two weeks and it would be fine.
Even so, Lin Mai was still extremely distressed.
After seeing the doctor, Fang Zhuoran hugged Lin Mai and left as he had come, put her on the back seat of his bicycle, and pushed her out of the hospital door.
Seeing Lin Mai's tearful look, he held the bicycle with one hand and scratched her pretty little nose with the other:
"There's nothing to cry about. Didn't the doctor just tell me that this is a minor burn and it will be fine in a few days."
Lin Mai wiped away his tears sheepishly: "Although it's a minor burn, it still hurts."
Fang Zhuoran smiled and said, "Kiss me and I won't feel any pain."
Lin Mai looked around and saw no one on the street in the early morning.
She got off the bicycle, stood on the road barefoot, stood on tiptoes, and kissed Fang Zhuoran on the lips.
It wasn't as fleeting as before, but it stayed there for more than ten seconds.
After the sweet kiss ended, Lin Mai shyly asked: "Does the pain feel better now?"
"It's not enough, it still hurts."
Lin Mai bit his lip and gave him another sweet kiss.
Fang Zhuoran was then satisfied and still held Lin Mai in the back seat of the bicycle and pushed her forward.
He asked her angrily why she was so reckless tonight and actually put herself in danger.
Lin Mai also knew that it was because of his poor thinking that he almost killed himself and caused Fang Zhuoran to be harmed.
She felt very guilty and said: "It's all because I was lucky and thought that the possibility of the arsonist being on the third floor was low, so I didn't call anyone.
I didn’t expect that the arsonist not only hid on the third floor, but also attacked me. Damn it!”
Seeing that she realized her mistake, Fang Zhuoran's expression softened and he told her not to take any chances in the future no matter what the situation was.
Lin Mai pushed his head on his back and said coquettishly: "I know!"
Fang Zhuoran sent her back to her home and then returned to the villa.
Zhou Caiyun hadn't slept yet, so he was shocked when he saw Lin Mai being carried back by Fang Zhuoran, thinking she was seriously injured.
Knowing that she had lost her slippers, Fang Zhuoran carried her home and said to her, "Look, Professor Fang treats you so well!"
Lin Mai poured himself a cup of tea and looked at her sideways: "Did you call Professor Fang and say there was a fire in the clothing factory?"
Zhou Caiyun chuckled: "I'm afraid something will happen to you~"
Lin Mai was speechless: "I've told you many times, don't bother him because of me.
If something really happened to me, it would only hurt him if he rushed over.
Fortunately, the two of us rushed out of the sea of fire just now, otherwise we would all be buried in the sea of fire, then Zhuo Ran's death would be so worthless."
Although Zhou Caiyun did not refute, he did not agree with Lin Mai's words.
What does it mean that Professor Fang's death was not worth it? Shouldn't a man save his sweetheart?
She changed the subject and asked about the situation in the clothing factory.
Lin Mai said: "Fortunately, the arsonist was discovered as soon as he set the fire, and there were no casualties."
"What about property damage?"
Lin Mai thought about it and said, "It should be very big. I don't know the specific situation yet."
In fact, she knew the specific situation. Although the warehouse was almost burned, the damage was not huge.
Most of the items piled in the warehouse are leftover materials left over from tailoring clothes. Only the top layer is stacked with cheap second-quality fabrics, which add up to less than five thousand yuan.
Good Fabrics As early as when Guan Yonghua sent someone to find out where the Unique Garment Factory got its cheap fabrics, Lin Mai asked Chen Feng to secretly transfer them for her.
She is cautious by nature. As long as she foresees danger, she will take precautions and prepare in advance.
When Zhou Caiyun heard that the loss was considerable, he felt sad for a long time and asked, "Has the arsonist been caught?"
Lin Mai shook his head: "I'm in a hurry to send Zhuoran to the hospital. I don't know yet."
It was already past three in the morning. After taking a shower, Lin Mai fell asleep.
During the darkest period before dawn, a black shadow quietly came to the hotel where Guan Yonghua was staying...
