The incident happened suddenly. Xie Qingyi was in a daze for a moment before he finally heard clearly what his subordinates said.
Why did it fail?
Isn’t Lu Ning just a little girl?
He sent so many people, including Li Che, but not only did he fail to catch the person, he was caught instead.
Xie Qingyi's blood pressure soared, and the expression on his face gradually began to distort.
A blush appeared on his pale face. If he hadn't had to face Xie Qingxing, he would probably have exploded.
Fortunately, he still retained a bit of sanity.
Xie Qingyi took a deep breath and made himself look confident.
"I wonder how Lu Ning would react if she knew that you don't want to save her." Xie Qingyi said as he took out his cell phone.
He pretended to make a phone call and asked his men to quickly synthesize Lu Ning's voice.
In short, he couldn't let Xie Qingxing find out that he hadn't caught Lu Ning at all.
The call was quickly connected, and Lu Ning's crying voice was heard from the other end.
"Xie Qingxuan, let me tell you..."
"Pfft..."
Someone behind Xie Qingxing couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Xie Qingyi froze in the middle of his words. He glared at the opposite side and found that the person laughing was a bodyguard behind Xie Qingxing.
"What are you laughing at?" Xie Qingyi frowned.
At the same time, Lu Ning's crying voice for help could still be heard from the phone.
This time, even Xie Qingxing couldn't help but frown.
"You... haven't seen Lu Ning?" Xie Qingxing asked, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
Xie Qingyi paused, then frowned. "What do you mean?"
“If you have met Lu Ning, you should have some understanding of her. Even if you really caught her, she would not ask for help in this tone.” After all, Lu Ning would only beat the person who caught her until he kneeled down and begged for mercy.
There was a moment of awkwardness in the air.
Xie Qingyi hung up the phone and pulled his sleeves. "It's a pity that I couldn't deceive you. In this case, there is nothing to talk about."
After taking off his disguise, Xie Qingyi finally decided to take action.
He arranged a lot of people here and even prepared others. Today Xie Qingxing can only die here, and will only die here.
After Xie Qingxing's death, he will find a way to take over the Xie family, take charge of the Xie family, and trample all those who looked down on him in the past under his feet.
He had already prepared for all this, and no one could stop him.
The smile in Xie Qingyi's eyes became even more intense, and suddenly, he turned around and stepped back.
The men behind him immediately protected him.
The next second, thick smoke filled the air.
Xie Qingyi took the opportunity to escape, and sneered, "Xie Qingxing, you will definitely die here today."
……
When Lu Ning rushed to the building, he saw flames shooting up into the sky and thick smoke billowing out from inside from afar.
"Oh no!" Lu Ning frowned and was about to rush into the building.
Xie Qingyi has explosives in his hands, and he will blow Xie Qingying to death here like in the original book.
Lu Ning didn't dare to think too much, she just wanted to rescue Xie Qingxing from there.
[Host, this is too dangerous! ] The system couldn't help but speak out.
Even though it was the one who issued the mission, it still couldn't bear to watch its host go in and die.
"I know it's dangerous, but Xie Qingxing is still inside." Lu Ning said without slowing down his pace.
She rushed to the building as fast as she could but was stopped when she was about to step inside.
The big fire here naturally attracted the attention of others, but the fire truck had not arrived yet.
Lu Ning glanced at the passerby who stopped her and said coldly, "I want to go in and save someone, please get out of the way."
"There's such a big fire in there, are you crazy? It's too dangerous. If you go in, you may not be able to get out." The one who was pulling Lu Ning was a middle-aged woman. She frowned and obviously didn't intend to let Lu Ning in.
"Listen to me, little girl. The fire truck will be here soon. If you go in now, you'll be asking for death."
Lu Ning didn't have time to wait any longer. She glanced at the woman holding her hand and waved her away when she wasn't paying attention.
The moment he rushed into the building, Lu Ning kindly reminded the other party, "It's very dangerous here, it's better to stay away from it to avoid getting hurt."
After saying that, Lu Ning leaped in.
The building was filled with smoke and dust, and for a moment it was impossible to tell the direction.
Lu Ning rubbed her way up the stairs, walking all the way up.
The fire seemed to have started on the middle floor. Lu Ning guessed that Xie Qingxuan was probably on the top few floors, which was not a convenient location for him to escape.
[Host, be careful, there is a big fire ahead.] The system couldn't help but warn again.
Lu Ning listened to what it said, but did not slow down.
If Xie Qingxing cannot be rescued, the mission will fail. If the mission is not completed, Lu Ning will not be able to break free from the constraints of his health points. No matter what, Lu Ning's ending is the word "death".
The only way to get out of this predicament is for Lu Ning to change Xie Qingxing's tragic death.
Lu Ning clenched her palms, and at some moment, a moment of confusion flashed through her mind.
She asked herself, was she really risking her life to save others just to complete that system mission?
Lu Ning's heart gave the answer almost instantly.
no.
Even if there was no system task, she would choose to save people.
Even if she couldn't save Xie Qingxing, she could die in the sea of fire with Xie Qingxing.
The fire above was getting more and more intense, and Lu Ning had no choice but to slow down.
She looked around, trying to find some tools to help her.
It’s a pity that the stairwell is empty.
Just when Lu Ning decided to move forward, he suddenly heard a faint cry for help.
She turned her head and saw a figure lying in the corner.
Only half of the other person's face was exposed, and the rest of his body was crushed by the collapsed beam, and he was dying.
Lu Ning tried to identify who the other person was, but unfortunately the smoke was too thick and Lu Ning couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly. However, she could vaguely confirm that it was not Xie Qingxing.
Just as Lu Ning was about to continue walking up, a hand in the corner suddenly grabbed her ankle.
Lu Ning was pulled unexpectedly and staggered, almost falling into the sea of fire.
“Who?” Lu Ning turned around and tried to pull his ankle free.
But before she could make a move, she heard the figure on the ground suddenly say, "Lu Ning...save me."
The other party called out Lu Ning's name, and Lu Ning subconsciously paused.
She leaned over, trying to identify the other person in the firelight.
As Lu Ning approached, a face that looked very similar to Xie Qingxing appeared in front of her.
"Xie Qingxing?" Lu Ning frowned.
"Yes...it's me, save me." Xie Qingxing spoke, and pulled Lu Ning tighter.
Lu Ning looked down, but when Xie Qingxing tried to use her to get up, she suddenly kicked him away.
"Are you worthy enough to pretend to be him?" Lu Ning's tone sank as he grabbed the man on the ground by the collar.
Behind that man was a raging flame. If Lu Ning wanted to, he could be sent into the sea of fire.
"Tell me where Xie Qingxing is." Lu Ning had lost her patience. She grabbed the other person, and the distance allowed her to see the other person's face clearly.
It’s Xie Qingyi.
Although this was the first time Lu Ning met Xie Qingyi, because of the previous impostor, Lu Ning remembered this face.
Although he is somewhat similar to Xie Qingxing, unfortunately they are very different in their inner qualities.
Xie Qingyi let out a hoarse laugh. He thought he could escape, but he didn't expect that in the end he would fall into Xie Qingxing's trap and be trapped here.
His leg was injured and unless someone carried him out, he would die.
But he was unwilling to do so.
He was unwilling to die before Xie Qingxing. Even if he was destined to be buried here, he wanted to drag Xie Qingxing to be buried with him.
"He's dead, you can't find him." Xie Qingyi coughed violently. He inhaled too much smoke and dust, and felt suffocated.
He knew that Lu Ning would not save him, and he also understood why his attempt to have someone pretend to be Lu Ning was instantly exposed.
Lu Ning is definitely not the type of person who would cry when she encounters danger.
Unfortunately, the first time he met Lu Ning was also the last time he met her.
Xie Qingyi suddenly laughed out loud, and then he suddenly reached out to grope for something.
Lu Ning noticed his actions and her eyes suddenly darkened.
It's the remote control!
Xie Qingyi is looking for the remote control.
Thinking of Jiang Yunxiao's batch of inferior bombs, Lu Ning's breath suddenly stopped.
The bombs that Jiang Yunxiao bought were not fake, but were replaced by Xie Qingyi.
Now those bombs are most likely placed in this building!
Although there had been speculations before, it was not until Lu Ning saw Xie Qingyi's actions that she finally confirmed it.
Can't let him flip the switch -
Thinking of this, Lu Ning immediately moved closer to Xie Qingyi.
Xie Qingyi was still groping for something when he suddenly saw Lu Ning approaching and subconsciously curled himself up into a ball.
He remembered that the remote control was in his pocket. As long as he found it and pressed it...
Suddenly, Xie Qingyi touched something hard, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
found it.
Just when Xie Qingyi was about to press it, Lu Ning suddenly approached.
She tried to take the remote control from Xie Qingyi, but Xie Qingyi tried his best to hold down her hand.
With a slight sound, the curve of Xie Qingyi's mouth suddenly widened.
He did it.
He flipped the switch.
In less than a minute, the building will explode and turn into ruins!
Seeing this, Lu Ning tightened her grip on Xie Qingyi's collar suddenly. She kicked Xie Qingyi aside and went upstairs.
“System, is there any way?” Lu Ning felt powerless for the first time.
Even though she came here, it seemed that she still could not change Xie Qingxing's ending.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the side quest of saving the female supporting role. The current quest reward has been issued. ]
The system's voice suddenly sounded, followed by its excited voice.
[Just now Chu Ling won an acting award. She has regained her confidence and will only become more and more confident and powerful from now on. ]
[Host! With the previous lottery rewards and this one, you still have 22 more chances to draw! ]
Thinking of the lottery system, Lu Ning's eyes suddenly darkened.
Although she didn't believe in her luck, she had no choice but to give it a try given the world's circumstances.
"System, open the lottery system!"
This time, Lu Ning chose ten consecutive draws without hesitation.
After two attempts, Lu Ning only won a consolation prize that was of no use at all.
[Host, there are two chances left.] The system tried to comfort Lu Ning.
After spending so much time together, the system obviously didn't want to see Lu Ning die.
"Go on." Lu Ning said, but did not stop.
With a slight sound, the lottery interface that appeared in front of Lu Ning suddenly burst into a golden light.
A dazzling light fell, and then a string of words appeared.
[Congratulations to the host for drawing the system's advanced item, the 'Cause and Effect Box'. ]
[This item can be used to offset a huge amount of damage and is a one-time consumable item. ]
[Host, it's still not too late to activate the item! ]
Lu Ning could hear the excitement and joy from the system's voice.
Even she herself did not expect that she would actually get a prop that could save the situation.
Seeing that the bomb was about to explode, Lu Ning immediately signaled the system to activate the props.
The moment the prop was activated, Lu Ning felt the ground beneath his feet suddenly shake.
The stairs she was standing on suddenly broke and collapsed, and for a moment it seemed as if the entire building was falling down.
[The current item 'Cause and Effect Box' has been opened——]
After a 'bang' sound, Lu Ning's surroundings suddenly fell into dead silence.
Lu Ning fell down the stairs and was about to hit the gravel on the ground.
The next second, a figure suddenly jumped down from a height and appeared in front of Lu Ning like the wind.
Lu Ning was hugged by someone, and his body turned around and landed steadily on the ground.
At the critical moment, Xie Qingying suddenly appeared, hugged Lu Ning, and ran downstairs with her.
"Xie Qingxing?" Lu Ning opened his eyes, obviously not yet recovered from the shock.
"It's me. It's okay. We will be able to escape soon." Xie Qingying said as he gently patted Lu Ning's back.
Lu Ning hummed. She had just tried her best to go up and save people, and she had almost used up all her strength.
Fortunately, she finally managed to prevent the explosion.
"System, thank you." Lu Ning thanked the system.
[Wuwuwu, host, as long as you are okay.] The system cried, and Lu Ning didn't find it noisy this time.
Xie Qingxuan pulled Lu Ning downstairs.
Perhaps due to the effect of the 'Cause and Effect Box', not only did the bomb not explode, but even the fire in the building was under control to a certain extent.
A few minutes later, Xie Qingxuan took Lu Ning out of the building, and those who were with him also followed out one after another.
In this fire, only Xie Qingyi and a few of his men were left inside.
Lu Ning stood below and looked over, finally feeling as if he had survived a calamity.
Xie Qingying was standing beside her, but he still had his arm around her with no intention of letting go.
"Why are you so stupid to rush in to save me?" Xie Qingxing looked down at Lu Ning, his eyes full of affection.
At a certain moment, even he himself felt that he could not escape, but just when he wanted to give up, he saw Lu Ning standing on the stairs.
Lu Ning did not feel uncomfortable being stared at, but instead stood on tiptoe to move closer to Xie Qingxing.
She had a smile on her face, her eyes fixed on Xie Qingxuan, the corners of her mouth slowly curled up, and finally she said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Because I like you, Mr. Xie!"
Xie Qingxing's expression flashed with a moment of daze. He looked at Lu Ning in disbelief, and finally regained his senses after a while.
He hugged Lu Ning tighter, as if relieved from a heavy burden. His feelings were finally reciprocated.
With a smile on his face, Xie Qingxing leaned over and kissed Lu Ning on the forehead.
"I love you."
