For the next three days, Lu Jue boiled brown sugar water for Ning Zhi every day. He didn't know how much brown sugar he had added.
And Lu Jue is very shrewd. When Ningzhi said he didn't need to drink any more, he would look at her with pitiful eyes and deliberately let her look at his reddish fingers.
When Ning Zhi finished drinking the brown sugar water, Lu Jue would stand by and stare at her blankly.
The intention was obvious. He also wanted to taste the brown sugar water in Ningzhi's mouth.
Ning Zhi would not refuse. Whenever she feeds, maybe because of the freshness, the little sun above Lu Jue's head will keep popping up.
After so many days, she collected 450 little suns, plus the previous 423, a total of 873 little suns, enough for her to complete the next mission.
At night, Lu Jue took a shower. He wore a red silk pajamas, wiped his hair a few times, then took the towel into the bathroom and hung it in a fixed position.
He walked out quickly and told Ning Zhi a little happily, "Zhizhi, boil brown sugar water for me."
He was going to cook brown sugar water for Zhizhi.
Having tasted the super sweetness these days, Lu Jue had already madly liked the task of boiling Ningzhi with sugar water. Even if he delayed his sleep time, he didn't mind at all.
Ning Zhi, who was sitting on the side of the bed, was so frightened that he quickly threw away the phone, and stretched out his hand to hold Lu Jue who wanted to go out.
"No." Ning Zhi quickly stopped.
Lu Jue looked at her with a blank expression and aggrieved.
"I'm already well, and my stomach no longer hurts." After drinking sugar water for so many days, her throat and mouth were very greasy.
Ning Zhi coaxed him, "Next month, when I am in my menstrual period next month, you will cook again."
Lu Jue blinked, next month?
He is now looking forward to the day when Zhizhi boiled brown sugar water next month.
The night is getting darker and the surroundings are quiet.
Ning Zhi heard the slight breathing from the side, knowing that Lu Jue was already asleep.
Ning Zhi called out the Overlord, "I have enough little suns, 800, right?"
The overlord’s cute little milk voice was so excited that he couldn’t help trembling: [Master, I don’t want to call your master anymore, let me call your father. 】Its owner is too powerful, and he got 800 little suns in such a short time!
Overlord thought that yesterday the rich and honorable had obtained a golden marshmallow and ran to it to show off. He turned around and wanted to kill it with 800 little suns.
After that, it can also borrow 100 little suns to give it rich. The rich has not found its owner. It is hungry every day, and the rich promises it. As long as it finds the owner, after earning merits, it will be doubled in the future.
Overlord happily began to plan how to consume these 800 little suns.
Ning Zhi: "Next time you save me half the sun, I can also call your father."
Overlord hesitates, if there is a real body, it must be like a little milk baby writhing fleshy body, [I still call you master. Ning Zhi snorted, and handed over 800 Little Suns to the Overlord with dissatisfaction.
Looking at the small inventory that was emptied in an instant, she felt a pain. It was originally golden, but now there are only 73 little suns left.
Ning Zhi hadn't had time to sigh, the next moment, her eyes went dark, and when she opened it again, the surrounding area had changed.
Right in front of me is the road where vehicles come and go. I would rather have the illusion of being disoriented for a while, and I don't know where it is.
She only knew that Lu Jue might be nearby.
Ning Zhi was a bit at a loss. She saw a street sign not far ahead and was about to confirm it. At the right moment, she suddenly heard a conversation from a passerby passing by.
"There seems to be a fire in the Expo Hotel. I just watched Moments. Many people are reposting live videos and photos."
"Are you talking about the hotel on Lurong Road, a few blocks away?"
"Yes, a while ago, my relatives just put wine there for dinner. The prices are cheap and the food is delicious. Usually, many people like to reserve a place for dinner."
"I passed that hotel before, it seems quite old, I haven't had a chance to go in yet."
"That hotel has been open for decades, and now the fire is getting bigger, I don't know if the firefighters have arrived."
"I hope no one gets hurt."
...
Listening to the conversation between the two, Ning Zhi had a bad feeling.
She felt that this time she was wearing Lu Jue's graduation year, and it might be the day of Lu Jue's graduation party.
Ning Zhi didn't have time to think, and quickly ran to the hotel. She raised her head and looked into the distance, vaguely seeing the thick smoke in the distance.
Because she is now in a state where no one can see her, she would rather go straight across the road without waiting for the traffic lights.
What's more, she walked through vehicles, crowds, and even buildings one by one. In less than five minutes before and after, she had rushed to the door of the hotel, breathing smoothly without panting at all.
At the entrance of the hotel, guests kept escaping from it, some were screaming, some had messy hair, and some even dropped a shoe and kept rushing out to flee the hotel.
The scene was chaotic.
The firefighters hadn't arrived yet, and thick smoke kept coming out of it.
Ning Zhi didn't hesitate at all, directly facing the crowd, passing through their bodies, and rushing in.
She knew that Lu Jue was saved in the fire, but thinking of the small scar left on his back, even if she knew he wouldn't feel pain, she would rather care.
She would wonder how Lu Jue was injured, and would he be afraid in the face of the sudden fire and people escaping everywhere.
Ning Zhi remembered that Lu Mu had said that at that time, Lu Jue and their dining place was on the seventh floor of the hotel.
The elevator in the hotel is no longer available, so I can only go up the stairs.
She saw people crowded, crazily descending the stairs, and crawling. Everyone couldn't care about the embarrassment at this time, and just wanted to survive.
Ning Zhi saw a young man suddenly squeezed to the ground, kicked several times, but no one helped him.
Ning Zhi glanced hurriedly, dressed in a personal body, and ran upstairs. To her, no one is more important than Lu Jue.
There were a lot of people shouting, screaming, helping people, and even the noise of burning things from the fire.
The whole hotel is noisy and messy.
Ning Zhi's current state of invisibility did not feel the rapidly rising heat wave and temperature around him.
Next to them were people who were escaping with their towels and clothes. They would rather know that they were not afraid of heavy smoke, and continued to run upstairs as usual.
On the fourth floor, Ning Zhi saw a fire in the entire corridor.
She continued to run up.
The fifth floor.
The sixth floor.
The last is the seventh floor.
The fire was on, and the corridors were crowded with people who had escaped. Some were guests who had just gotten off from above, and some were guests who were dining in the boxes.
Ning Zhi saw a lot of young faces. They should be graduates who had dinner here today.
Faces of panic, anxious, and fear, everyone squeezed each other, eager to escape.
Ning Zhi had just come up from the sixth floor. She knew how big the fire was below. Obviously, the people around had felt the heat wave from below, and they were so panicked.
Ning Zhi tried his best to search for Lu Jue in the crowd, however, he didn't find it.
The fire is getting more and more hot, and more and more people are escaping.
Ning Zhi was anxiously looking for Lu Jue in one box after another. He might not have followed everyone to escape.
At that time, Ning Zhi did not expect that she would wear it back to this day. She regretted that she had forgotten to ask Mother Lu about the box number of Lu Jue's graduation dinner.
Even if she didn't feel it now, Ning Zhi could know that the fire was getting bigger and bigger. She went straight through the fire and rushed into a box again without finding anything.
Ning Zhi searched quickly until she reached the third box from the bottom, and she saw Lu Jue standing blankly in the box.
It is not yet surrounded by fire, but thick smoke keeps pouring in.
"Lu Jue." Ning Zhi hurried over.
Hearing a familiar voice, Lu Jue raised his head and saw at a glance the person he had thought about for a long, long time.
Lu Jue's dark eyes lit up.
Blame sister, here comes.
"The hotel is on fire, I will take you out of here." Ning Zhi quickly stepped forward and took Lu Jue's hand.
Lu Jue looked at her quietly with beautiful peachy eyes, just looking at her. He nodded obediently, "Go with Sister Wei."
Blame the sister wherever he goes.
Lu Jue is now as tall as he was when he was an adult, with sharp edges and corners on his side, and a youthful look between his eyebrows. Wearing a red sports suit, he walked away from Ning Zhi with long legs.
Ning Zhi is not afraid of being burned in the current physical condition, but Lu Jue is different from her, she must carefully lead him to avoid the surrounding fire.
"You cover your nose with your sleeve." Ning Zhi was worried that he inhaled too much smoke, so he could barely avoid inhaling a little.
Lu Jue obediently put his arm in front of his nose, he even wanted to help Ning Zhi cover his nose.
"I don't need to, just take care of yourself."
Ning Zhi pulled him away from the fire and ran forward quickly, but at this moment, I didn't know which box came from the child's cry.
Ning Zhi didn't intend to pay attention, because she knew that no one died in this fire, that is to say, the child would be rescued.
Suddenly, Lu Jue next to him stopped.
Ning Zhi turned around questioningly, "What's the matter?"
Lu Jue turned his head and looked to the side, where the child's cry came from, he pursed his lips, and said slowly in his voice, "I'm crying."
The child cried.
Ning Zhi was taken aback, so Lu Jue heard the child's cry? Is he going to help that kid?
Ning Zhi suddenly found that his heart was quite cruel, and Lu Jue had a soft heart.
"Do you want to save him?" Ning Zhi asked him.
Lu Jue nodded, "Save it."
Ning Zhi pulled him and turned around quickly. If he wants to save, then save!
When he arrived at the box where the cry came from, Ning Zhi instructed Lu Jue, "You open the door."
Lu Jue unscrewed the door of the box directly.
When the heat wave hit, I saw a little boy standing at the big round table, crying blankly, and there was fire spreading around him.
Ning Zhi hadn't reacted yet. Lu Jue next to him seemed to be suddenly resuscitated. His tall body rushed forward, preparing to save the little boy.
At this time, on the ceiling of the box, the crumbling crystal chandelier couldn't stand it and fell down.
