Shen Nanshan scratched his head in embarrassment and blushed because of Yao Shu's compliment.

He lowered his voice and said, "It's all because of the good teachings of the old lady."

The two of them were so indifferent to the conversation that Shen Fugui and Shen Jian'an didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, what happened today was safe, so Yao Shu didn't want to say anything more.

When she turned her head, she found Shen Fugui beside her with a face full of contemplation.

Thinking of what Shen Nanshan told her about Princess Chang'an today, she leaned over and said, "How is the situation between you and the princess developing now?"

Shen Fugui seemed to have suddenly come to his senses and said hurriedly: "Mother, I have returned the token to the princess and have not used it."

Yao Shu knew that Shen Fugui was talking about the Queen's Token given to him by the princess, and shook her head helplessly: "That's not what I'm talking about. It is risky for the princess to use the Queen's Token for you. Now you are giving it to the princess This is what you should do, and there is no need to be so nervous. It’s just that this time the princess suddenly approaches, so don’t take it lightly. The princess and we are not on the same level. Even if you two have begun to develop feelings, you should not be too nervous in any case. Too intimate."

Of course Shen Fugui knew what she said and nodded solemnly to show that he understood the truth.

Seeing that Shen Fugui was a sensible person, Yao Shu stopped talking.

After this incident, they had completely offended Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu is not different from the Minister of Rites. She is a member of the harem, and there is no other way to take revenge on the Shen family. The only thing she can do this time is to use the princess's affairs to make Shen Fugui suffer.

Yao Shu was very worried that Shen Fugui's future would be ruined in the hands of Concubine Shu, but now it seemed that he already understood the stakes, so he didn't say much.

What Yao Shu didn't expect was that she believed in Shen Fugui so much at the moment. Without this warning, Shen Fugui would be in trouble.

In the following days, the Shen family was safe and sound.

Yao Shu was still worried that the Minister of Rites would not let them go so easily. As time passed and nothing unexpected happened, she slowly relaxed.

At noon that day, Yao Shu stood in the restaurant lobby and suddenly felt particularly uneasy.

She subconsciously looked around, looking at the bustling scene, but didn't find anything wrong.

Shen Jian'an walked slowly to the side, looked at her appearance at this time, and asked with concern: "Mom, you look bad, has something happened to you?"

"I always feel uneasy in my heart, as if something big is going to happen. You should strengthen the inspection and management of the restaurant, and if there are any signs of problems, please inform me immediately."

Shen Jian'an smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, everything is going well in the restaurant now, and nothing major will happen."

"Never take it lightly."

"Don't worry, I will take people to inspect it now."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard an exclamation coming from the second floor.

Immediately afterwards, a person rushed out from the box on the second floor and fell in a panic in the corridor.

"Go away, go out!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the lobby on the first floor was extremely panicked.

Suddenly everyone was confused and subconsciously wanted to run out the door.

Yao Shu and Shen Jian'an looked at each other, obviously not knowing what was going on.

Fortunately, the two of them reacted quickly and ran to the second floor.

"You go and evacuate the guests on the first floor now, and I can go to the second floor alone to check." Yao Shu grabbed Shen Jian'an who was going up the stairs and said sternly while looking at the panicked people downstairs.

Shen Jian'an frowned and said in a low voice: "Mom, this is absolutely impossible. I don't know what the situation is on the second floor. If it is extremely dangerous, my son will definitely not let you go there."

"Without further ado, hurry up and evacuate. There is no room for us to discuss now."

Yao Shu pushed Shen Jian'an hard and ran to the second floor.

She came to the second floor and found smoke billowing from a box. The guests inside had already run out, leaving behind unused food.

She stood in front of the door and discovered that the thick smoke was not coming from the box, but from behind the restaurant.

As expected, at this moment, the waiter's repeated call came from the first floor.

"It's a leak behind the restaurant!"

Yao Shu hurried down, but it was too late at this moment.

Just as I was standing on the stairs, the beam above my head suddenly broke. In the next second, he only heard the sound of heavy objects falling, and then saw a beam falling heavily at his feet.

She subconsciously took a step back, and when she realized it, the road ahead was blocked.

The smoke was billowing and she couldn't breathe.

The rationality she retained reminded her of common sense in case of fire. She covered her nose with her hands, bent down, and wanted to go down the stairs on the other side.

I didn't expect the ferocity of the fire. In just one stick of incense, the entire second floor was already ablaze.

Cracks began to appear on the floor under her feet. Seeing that she was about to lose her balance, Yao Shu immediately retreated and hid in the corner room.

There were constant exclamations outside, and I wondered if anyone would notice that I hadn't gone out yet.

She felt uneasy in her heart, but fortunately, she was extra sane and clear-headed in times of crisis.

A few days ago, someone deliberately set a fire, and today the restaurant was hit by a fire. Presumably they also had trouble explaining, after all, no one could prove that the man who poured fuel on the fire that day really wanted to set the fire.

The thick smoke that kept pouring into her nose made her consciousness gradually disappear.

Looking back on the first day I came here, until now, I have experienced countless difficulties and tortures. Unexpectedly, as my life gradually improved, something like this would happen.

She was unwilling to let her life stop like this and began to think of ways to save herself.

She looked around and saw what seemed to be a rope in the open window not far away.

At that moment, she felt very strange as to why there was a rope suddenly hanging in a restaurant.

But at the moment, the rope has been continuously burned by the fire, and now it is completely unusable.

When he was exhausted, a basin of water suddenly poured in from outside the door.

She turned around subconsciously and saw Shen Nanshan kicking the closed door.

With her back to the fire, she couldn't see clearly what he looked like at this moment.

Shen Nanshan took out a handkerchief from his arms and stuffed it into Yao Shu's arms.

The hoarse voice spoke anxiously: "Cover your mouth and nose with it!"

Yao Shu hurriedly followed the instructions without having time to speak.

The next second she felt her feet were empty, and then she was on Shen Nanshan's back.

Shen Nanshan's back was exceptionally broad and secure. Yao Shu hugged her tightly, and suddenly it felt like she was hugging the whole world.
