Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend

Chapter 789: Chapter 789 Reignited Love

Such remarks, even if they were in the Explosive Realm, would be quite explosive.

Jiang Xu thought to himself, “Goodness gracious.”

It was indeed too explosive.

However, having a penchant for gossip is the instinct of the masses, and Jiang Xu was no exception.

Sipping his drink, he perked up his ears, listening to the argument at the table next door.

Jiang Xiaoyan even turned on the recording function of her phone, walking at the forefront of the gossip enthusiasts.

“You slut, neither of the kids is mine. You’ve been deceiving me from the start!”

“Why are you so petty? Does it really matter if the kids are yours? They’ve been calling you dad, and that’s to your benefit, okay?”

“You bitch, I’m going to kill you.”

——————

Immediately followed by a series of screams and successive shrieks.

“Oh no, there’s a fire!”

“Run for it!”

——————

The scene instantly descended into chaos as thick smoke billowed up.

Jiang Xu’s face changed color.

Without further thought, he immediately grabbed An Nuonuo beside him and rushed outside.

The life and death of others were put aside; his wife’s safety was definitely his top priority.

The fire at the scene was fierce.

It was probably that man who threw high-concentration liquor into the charcoal stove, which triggered the blaze.

Many people bustled toward the exit en masse.

With his speed and strength far exceeding that of ordinary people, Jiang Xu forcibly squeezed through the crowd.

He then carried An Nuonuo and swiftly descended the staircase.

Fortunately, he had spotted the location of the stairwell when he went to the bathroom.

So he was the first to rush down, meeting no obstacles.

After reaching the ground floor, Jiang Xu finally let go of An Nuonuo, his heart settling down.

“My cousin is still inside~” An Nuonuo, pale-faced, only then realized the situation.

The incident had occurred too suddenly.

While most people were still reeling, Jiang Xu had already safely escorted her downstairs.

An Nuonuo, full of admiration, said, “Husband, you were so fast.”

Jiang Xu, with a head full of black lines: “What are you talking about, what is this?”

An Nuonuo knew he was misunderstanding her words.

But now was not the time to discuss such things: “There are others still up there, what should we do?”

Looking up now, one could see the smoke rolling in thick clouds.

People were rushing out of the establishment in a panic.

Soon, Chu Youwei, Jiang Xiaoyan, and Zhou Mengmeng all made it out.

They were all swept out by the fleeing crowds.

Zhou Mengmeng’s face was fraught with urgency: “My cousin is still in there! I’m going to go save her!”

No matter how cunning she was or how wealthy, she had only one thought: to rush back in and rescue her cousin.

After all, if you really got down to it, the only true relative she had in this world was Zhou Qingyue.

Everyone else was just a blood-sucking parasite.

“It’s too chaotic; you can’t get there,” Chu Youwei grabbed Zhou Mengmeng: “With so many people rushing down the stairs, you simply can’t get up.”

“I’ll go,” said Jiang Xu with a grave voice. “I’ll see if I can jump over from the neighboring rooftop, but I can’t guarantee that I can save her.”

Since they were in the Capital city, it was very safe, and Jiang Xu had not brought bodyguards along.

He hadn’t expected such an incident to happen.

Some gossip can’t be carelessly indulged in, for it may contain significant consequences.

This newly opened barbecue restaurant had only three floors.

Next to it was a four-story private house.

Jiang Xu quickly ran there, and after seeking permission from the homeowner, he headed straight for the top floor.

He also dampened his clothes.

The gap between the two buildings was two meters wide.

Jiang Xu took a deep breath and with a running start, he leapt across.

Jumping from a high place to a lower one, and with the distance being only two meters wide, it still wasn’t too difficult.

Zhou Qingyue collapsed on the ground.

Every person on the rooftop had already fled.

During the chaos just now, Zhou Qingyue wasn’t paying attention and was knocked over by someone, resulting in a fracture.

People with previously injured legs, even after healing, are more prone to injuries than others.

She found she couldn’t walk, any movement of her bones was extremely painful.

The fire around her was growing larger and had begun to spread in her direction.

The thick, pungent smoke accompanied it.

Even though she lay down, it barely alleviated the situation.

At this moment, Zhou Qingyue truly felt the threat of death!

She couldn’t help but let out a desperate, bitter laugh.

She hadn’t even achieved her business empire yet—was she going to die here?

A spark landed on Zhou Qingyue’s clothes and quickly started spreading upwards.

Zhou Qingyue no longer had the strength to stop it.

She slowly closed her eyes.

Perhaps it was for the best to end it this way.

After all, she was unloved and uncared for.

She guessed that probably only her cousin would be grieved by her death.

Just when Zhou Qingyue thought she was definitely going to die this time, a shadow engulfed her.

She opened her eyes, sensing something.

Then she saw Jiang Xu appear as if he had descended from heaven.

Jiang Xu took off his shirt and roughly pulled it over Zhou Qingyue’s head.

Then he hoisted her onto his back and headed straight for the stairway.

By the time Zhou Qingyue came to her senses, she was already on Jiang Xu’s back.

This was the first time in her life she had been so close to Jiang Xu.

She could clearly smell the scent of sweat on his body.

It wasn’t unpleasant, but rather had a strange effect, the more she smelled it, the more intoxicating it became.

The strong masculine aura emanating from Jiang Xu seemed like it could melt her entirely.

A faint blush appeared on her face.

The feelings she had for Jiang Xu, which had been long extinguished, were showing signs of reigniting.

No girl could resist the scenario where, at the most desperate moment when her life was threatened, a man would swoop down from the sky and rescue her.

Even if they were total strangers and it was their first encounter, there was a high chance of developing feelings of admiration.

Not to mention that Zhou Qingyue had liked Jiang Xu in the past.

Unconsciously, her arms tightened fiercely around Jiang Xu’s neck.

Her love felt as if it was a volcano that had been dormant for hundreds of years.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

When it erupted, it would overwhelm everything.

As Jiang Xu was running downstairs, he rolled his eyes, “You might as well choke me to death if you’re going to hold on that tight.”

“Oh, I’m sorry,” Zhou Qingyue came to her senses, and her face deepened in color.

Her heart thumped wildly, like a frightened deer.

Her gaze towards Jiang Xu was practically melting.

This little nemesis, why couldn’t she completely sever the ties with him?

Right now, Zhou Qingyue felt extremely troubled.

It was as if the phoenix had been reborn from the ashes, becoming even more powerful.

After reigniting her love for Jiang Xu, Zhou Qingyue horrifyingly found

that this love was purer, more steadfast, and deeper.

This involuntary panic made her unsure of what to do next.

While she was lost in her chaotic thoughts, Jiang Xu had already taken her down the stairs.

Surrounding them, a round of enthusiastic applause broke out.
