The most terrible thing about a fire was not the raging fire, but the smoke that drifted out.
Most of the people who died in the fire were not burned to death by the flames but were choked to death by the thick smoke.
“Use this to cover your nose and mouth!” Yun Gang handed Guan Hong a piece of cloth that had already been soaked in water.
“Where did you get these?!” Guan Hong covered her nose and asked in a muffled voice.
Although the two of them only got married later on in their lives, they had spent every day together and gradually understood what the other party was asking from the tone of their voices.
“I’m from the countryside, after all, and my house has been through a fire before. These are the methods I’ve recorded.” Yun Gang had always answered Guan Hong’s questions.
“Be careful!” As the two of them were talking, a pole on the stairs fell down into a big fire.
Yun Gang felt that the pole was about to hit Guan Hong’s head, so he ran two steps forward and pushed Guan Hong away without thinking. The pole smashed heavily on Yun Gang’s waist.
Fortunately, it was a slanted slope. The cylindrical pole did not stay on Yun Gang’s body for too long. It directly slid down Yun Gang’s back.
“Are you alright?” Guan Hong still looked like she had not recovered from the shock.
“I’m fine! Are you alright?”
Yun Gang was still covering his mouth with a wet cloth, but his eyes were sizing up Guan Hong.
Guan Hong’s eyes reddened at the sight of this!
Guan Hong had experienced a failed marriage before, and had ambiguous and intimate relationships with men, but never had a man protected her by her side like today.
“Let’s get out of here quickly. It seems like the fire is getting bigger!”
Yun Gang did not notice Guan Hong’s emotions. He held her hand and walked down the stairs.
At this moment, Guan Hong felt that the hand that was holding her was so heavy and powerful. Guan Hong was an admirable career woman in the business world, but she was still a girl who needed love and care.
The reason why Guan Hong was so immersed in an intimate relationship with a man was that she lacked a sense of security. Only when they were in bed could she feel that she was loved, but she did not know that being loved never needed proof.
Yun Gang was a greedy person, and he also had some small problems. However, the way he treated his wife was still not bad!
If Liu Fang had not been unable to continue living such a tough life, she would not have thought of separating from Yun Gang.
By the time the two of them escaped from the building, they were already drenched in sweat.
“Let me see the wound on your back!” As soon as she was exposed to the fresh air, Guan Hong lifted Yun Gang’s coat to check the wound on his back.
A large patch of green and purple skin was a shocking sight!
“This is too serious! Let’s go, let’s go, I’ll take you to the hospital! You need to get this wound treated!” Guan Hong could not care less about anything else. All she wanted to do was to bring Yun Gang to the hospital to treat his wound.
“Honey! Do you think this wound on my back is considered a work injury?” Yun Gang should be fine, and he even had the time to tease Guan Hong.
“Is it considered a work injury? Aren’t we using our family’s own money for the treatment?” Guan Hong had now accepted the fact that Yun Gang and she were husband and wife.
“If it’s a work injury, honey, can you give me a break?” Yun Gang gave Guan Hong a meaningful look.
Guan Hong’s face reddened immediately.
“You old fogey! It’s so embarrassing for others to hear these things!” Guan Hong gently nudged Yun Gang.
“Alright, I’ll take it as a work injury. I’ll give you a few more days off when we get back!” Guan Hong made a concession. She no longer needed sex to gain a sense of security.
“Then, you’d better let your husband recuperate for a period of time. When I recover, I’ll let you know what it means to be as vigorous as a dragon and a tiger.” Yun Gang also sensed the change in Guan Hong’s tone, so he continued to tease her.
Just like that, the couple walked in the direction of the hospital, one after another.
