Chapter 1718: The building is also on fire?

Yu Xiaoke couldn’t care about the things in her room anymore and quickly went to wake the Dean,””Master, it’s not good. There’s a fire!”

The principal was sleeping very lightly, and Yu Xiaoke’s voice woke her up. She was shocked when she saw the situation outside,”Quick, go save the child!”

And so, Yu Xiaoke and the Dean quickly ran into the children’s dormitory!

Fortunately, both of them were disciples of Feiyan sect. Although they were in the sea of fire, they could always find a place to stay. The two of them risked their lives to Save the Children in the orphanage. The orphanage behind them was already in a sea of fire!

The wind was very strong today, and the air was very dry, so the fire became out of control in an instant. From the orphanage, it was already showing signs of spreading to the other areas …

Yu Xiaoke only reacted after they got the kids out,””Master, let’s call the fire department. The orphanage is going to be burned down!”

In her hurry, the old principal did not bring her phone. The orphanage was close to the construction site where the shanty town used to be, and on the other side was the business district. However, all the shops were closed at night, so it was difficult to find a single person!

The old principal looked around and finally found a public phone to call the fire alarm. However, the fire had already spread to the construction site of the shanty town next to the orphanage …

By the time the fire engine’s alarm went off, the fire had already gotten out of control! Even though more fire trucks arrived to help, the fire was only put out at daybreak due to the strong wind and the large fire. There were also piles of flammables on the construction site, such as wooden prescriptions.

Qibing, Cihua, and boss Zhu, on the other hand, had a good night’s sleep. The next morning, after they woke up, Qibing couldn’t wait for Cihua to turn on the TV,”Quick, look at the news. I think the orphanage is now in ruins!”

“Haha, that must be it!” Li Cihua nodded and turned on the TV.

The three of them sat on the sofa, ready to see the ruins of the orphanage.

“At around 1 a.m. Today, there was a major fire in the orphanage near the old shantytown. When the firefighters arrived, the fire was already out of control and began to spread to the nearby construction sites. After the hard work of the firefighters, the fire was finally put out at about 7 a.m. Today. However, the orphanage and the newly built Qibing skyscraper were all burned to ashes …”Following the news was a group of shots of the orphanage and the Qibing skyscraper being burned down …

“Gah!” Zhao Qibing heard the news and jumped up with a “whoosh”! He looked at the news in disbelief.””Impossible! How was this possible? My building!”

Li Cihua and elder Zhu looked bitter as well. They didn’t think that they would burn down the Qibing skyscraper next to the orphanage. The Qibing skyscraper was newly built, and it hadn’t even been used for a day …

“Who can tell me what’s going on?” Qibing was so angry that he kicked the TV, breaking it into pieces. It fell to the ground and made a “Chi Chi” sound, but Qibing didn’t care. How much did a TV cost? what he cared about was the Qibing skyscraper!

Qibing’s skyscraper had been destroyed twice since the start of construction. The first two times were done by Lin Yi, but the third time, he burned it down with his own hands!

“This … Master Bing, we didn’t know that this would affect the Qibing skyscraper …” Cihua was troubled,””I just followed your instructions and found a weather that is easy to set fire …”

“Master Bing, I was just following your orders and poured the gasoline on the fire …” Elder Zhu said with a bitter face. He and Cihua weren’t experts in this area, and they didn’t have any experience. How could Cihua predict the fire? And elder Zhu was focused on cultivation, he wouldn’t have known that the fire would affect the Qibing skyscraper!

“It’s not your fault …” Zhao Qibing waved his hand helplessly and sat down on the ground. If he knew that the fire would cause such a big problem, he would have given the orphanage more money or built a new orphanage for them somewhere else!

However, it was too late for regrets. Qibing had achieved his goal, but the price he had to pay was too high!

Cihua had hoped to earn more money from this project to pay back the debt, but it seemed like that was all for naught. He had been frowning all day long.

However, compared to li Cihua and Zhao Qibing, the orphanage was in a much more difficult situation. Without the orphanage, the old Dean could only bring the children and rent a cheap duplex apartment. Over a hundred children were squeezed into a three hundred square meter room. It wasn’t too crowded at all!

Yu Xiaoke did manage to get a large sum of money for the orphanage, but it wasn’t enough to rebuild it. After all, they couldn’t just rebuild the old house, could they? They had to rebuild it properly, and the money was for the orphanage’s daily expenses. If they took it out from the bank and used it on the orphanage, it wouldn’t be enough. What would they do after they used it up?

Yu Xiaoke’s treasures were only worth around five million! Five million. It wouldn’t be a problem if it was just to build a simple one. However, if all the supporting facilities were built, it probably wouldn’t even be enough to buy the supporting equipment!

“This fire must’ve been set by Zhao Qibing’s company. They didn’t put it properly and burned down their own company nearby!” “I think they deserve it,” Ken said angrily.”They deserve it!”

“That li Cihua will probably come and talk to us about the land again. This time, we’ll have to change it no matter what!” The old principal sighed and said helplessly,”We really can’t afford to offend the Hidden House Zhao! If it was back then … Sigh …”

What the old principal wanted to say was, if it was in the past, would she have taken a small hidden house like the Zhao family seriously? But now, the Hidden House Zhao was a huge force to her!

However, Yu Xiaoke didn’t know much about what happened back then, and the Dean didn’t want to talk about it in case her enemies came to her and destroyed her peaceful life.

“How about … I go and take on another big mission?” Yu Xiaoke pondered for a while and gritted her teeth. This was the only way she could think of. She had to come out of the mountains again. Otherwise, where would she have the money to build an orphanage? (To be continued.)
