Chapter 242 Setting oneself on fire

"do not want!"

Fang Li felt a loud bang in front of her, and flames instantly spread, followed by scorching heat.

When she lowered her hands, which she had instinctively used to cover herself, she saw a bright red scene before her eyes, with flickering human-shaped flames in her eyes.

It was at this moment that the police pushed through the crowd and arrived at the scene.

Yang Miao and a driver carrying a fire extinguisher, looking terrified, arrived with the police.

"Hurry!!!"

"on fire!"

"My God! She poured gasoline on herself!"

There were whispers all around, but Fang Li couldn't hear anything.

All she could see was that frantically struggling humanoid fireball.

Fortunately, the driver who came with Yang Miao reacted quickly and immediately ran over with a fire extinguisher in his hand.

"Madam, back off!"

"Auntie..." Yang Miao, standing behind, was completely terrified.

White powder shot out rapidly from the nozzle, and Fang Li felt as if she was surrounded by an overwhelming white, which quickly obscured the dazzling fiery red.

"Stop looking! Move aside! Everyone disperse!"

Call 120!

"Protect the scene, and all unrelated personnel must leave immediately!"

As the driver extinguished the flames on Yan Haoyu's mother with a fire extinguisher, the police quickly brought the scene under control.

Police tape was put up around the area, and onlookers were driven far away.

Cao Haoxuan's father, who had immediately dodged away in fright the moment he saw Yan Haoyu's mother light the fire, was also driven to the perimeter.

Fang Li stared at the black figure lying on the ground, barely alive, and remained in a daze for a long time.

until.......

"Miss! Miss, what's wrong?!"

Fang Li turned around abruptly when she heard the driver's exclamation.

Yang Miao collapsed to the ground, her face pale and limp. The driver was squatting beside her, looking panicked and helpless.

-

"It was the shock that caused her heart to race and her blood pressure to drop sharply, leading to fainting. I've given her a sedative, and she'll wake up soon, so don't worry too much."

Chen Yingsheng came out of the ward and looked at Fang Lidao, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room.

"Thank you."

Fang Li's voice is still weak.

Seeing her like that, Chen Yingsheng couldn't help but worry, "Are you alright?"

Fang Li shook her head. "It's nothing."

“I’ve heard about what happened. Yan Haoyu’s mother is also in our hospital now. She has third-degree burns all over her body, and it remains to be seen whether she can recover.”

Chen Yingsheng sighed, "I didn't expect that even after so much time has passed, she still hasn't accepted the facts and has done something so extreme."

"......"

"The wound on your hand looks quite deep."

Upon hearing this, Fang Li remembered the wound on the back of her hand. She looked down and found that it had stopped bleeding, but the wound was still turned outwards, which did look rather frightening.

"Let me take a look at you." Chen Yingsheng came over with his medicine box and sat down in the chair opposite her.

Fang Li didn't speak, but paused and slowly reached out her hand.

As Chen Yingsheng disinfected and applied medicine to her, he said, "After Yan Haoyu's incident, I was worried that it would cause Yang Miao some psychological harm, as well as withdrawal symptoms from nitrous oxide... I didn't expect that none of my worries would come true, but now this has happened..."

Fang Li looked up at the bed in the inner room and could just see half of Yang Miao's face as he slept unconscious.

"She was quite frightened this time, and it's unlikely she'll be able to forget it quickly after waking up."

“That’s what I’m worried about too, but I’ve already contacted the hospital’s psychologist in advance. They’ll come over and check on her as soon as she wakes up.”

"sorry to bother you."

Chen Yingsheng smiled faintly: "Yang Miao calls me Uncle Chen, after all. Why are you being so polite with me about this?"

"..." Fang Li also felt that her mind and mouth were still a bit out of sorts. "Mainly because this happened so suddenly, I haven't quite recovered yet."

"I understand. Any normal person would be scared if they were that close."

"It's not that I was scared, it's just..." Fang Li paused, wanting to say something but realizing it would be pointless, and smiled faintly, "Things are already like this, saying anything now won't help, but..."

Fang Li looked up at Chen Yingsheng across from her and said, "Could you please not tell Han Xi about what happened today? His project has just started, and he needs to oversee many things temporarily. Anyway, it will be over in a few days, and I don't want to distract him."

Chen Yingsheng paused in applying the medicine, then smiled and said, "I'm afraid I can't help you with this. Besides, it's probably too late for you to think about keeping it from him now."

Fang Li: "......."

The northern city, hundreds of kilometers away.

The project supervisor sent by Han Yi was named Chen Song, who was in his forties, less than 1.7 meters tall, and weighed over 170 pounds.

He was originally in charge of another project and planned to come over after finishing things there in a few days. Unexpectedly, Third Master told him that Taihu Bay was urging him to come over urgently. Thinking of the person who made the announcement, he had no choice but to finish handing over the previous project and rush over here.

He really didn't waste any time. After the handover, he rushed over as fast as he could. Even so, by the time he arrived at Taihu Bay, it was already close to seven o'clock in the afternoon.

Although he arrived a few hours earlier than Han Xi had requested, he managed to get there that same day. He figured that out of respect for Third Master, Han Xi wouldn't be angry about such a small matter.

He arrived at the construction site dusty and tired after getting off the plane, and was about to explain with a smile when he realized that things were not as he had imagined.

As dusk fell, the entire project site was shrouded in gloom.

However, no matter how dark the sky was, it couldn't compare to the expression on the face of the young master in front of them.

Before he could even get past, Han Xi, looking like a demon crawling out of hell, walked straight past him with a gloomy expression.

He wasn't even given a single glance from beginning to end.

When Chen Song saw it, his heart skipped a beat and his heart jumped.

"Mr. Han...Mr. Han..."

Chen Song lifted his foot to chase after him, but after only two steps, Jiang Bei, who was following behind Han Xi, turned around and blocked his way.

"Supervisor Chen."

Chen Song paused, stunned.

Jiang Bei's face was cold, and his tone was businesslike: "President Han said you were late, before noon."

"But I needed to hand over my work from the previous project, so..."

"It seems Third Master didn't convey the message clearly to you. Late is late. President Han doesn't have time to listen to your explanations. He's already found someone else to take charge of the project. As for Supervisor Chen..."

Jiang Bei raised his hand and glanced at the wristband beside him, saying, "There should still be flights back to Mingcheng. Take care, Supervisor Chen."

After saying that, without waiting for Chen Song's reaction, Jiang Bei immediately turned around and quickly followed Han Xi ahead.

"It's over..."

Chen Song and his assistant stood there dumbfounded, watching the scene unfold. It wasn't until the black figures in front of them got into their car and left that he finally came to his senses.

"Quickly, call Third Master!"
