C19

After looking at the accounts, he originally wanted to rest for a while before getting up and sending food to the hospital, but then he closed his eyes lightly and actually passed out. It was only when he heard a very noisy sound come from beside his ears that he frowned and opened his eyes.

The moment he opened his eyes, his consciousness was still a little blurry. Looking at the smog that filled the study, he actually couldn't react to what had happened.

Only when he heard the shrill siren coming from outside the window did he suddenly jump up from his chair, but the moment he stood up, he immediately coughed several times. He hurriedly took out a tissue from the table, and poured some leftover tea onto it.

He was also confused. How could he go inside at this time? He should be running towards the window as fast as he could, waiting for the firefighters to give him first aid.

Thus, when Gao Cheng opened the study door in a panic, the fire that had originally spread to the corridor came in contact with a large amount of air, and the tongue of fire rushed into the originally surviving study room. There were already a lot of paper products in the study room, and as soon as the tongue of fire spread out, the fire immediately became bigger.

He took off his coat and put it on his head, then quickly ran to the balcony before the study was completely burned up, closing the balcony door tightly. He looked back downstairs, and when he saw the fire engine that had already arrived, he let out a huge sigh of relief, but when he looked back at his villa, he couldn't help but despair. This was already the only place he and Qi Hua had to live.

Soon, the firefighters found Gao Cheng hiding on the balcony on the second floor. He had built a fire escape ladder and saved the life, but the villa was completely destroyed by the firefighters' water guns.

Gao Cheng stood in front of the villa that had been burnt beyond recognition. He really wanted to cry, but no tears came out. He finally understood what it meant to be unable to face the rain. Without this roof, he didn't even know how to face the seven of them. Will there be any peace after that?

After the firemen entered the house and completely eliminated the fire, the leader of the firemen walked in front of the battered Gao Cheng and handed him a broken earthenware jar.

"Mr. Gao, we've found the reason for the fire, it's because the thing in the stew has dried up, but such a small stew should not have caused such a big fire, and we just observed your kitchen, the fire prevention facilities are doing pretty good, even if the kitchen is on fire, it shouldn't have spread to the whole mansion so quickly, so we think that this fire is strange, if Mr. Gao agrees, we will continue to investigate."

Gao Cheng stared blankly at the stew in the fire chief's hand, his heart full of frustration. He didn't even hear the words that came after, all he could think of was how useless he was.

The failure of a career, the failure of a marriage, the severe illness of seven or seven years, as well as the burning of a villa, all of these things happened one after another. Everyone would feel too much pressure in their heart, and Gao Cheng couldn't help but break down a little.

When he received the notification and dragged the patient to a sickroom not too far away, Gao Cheng still hadn't woken up. One of their neighbors was standing next to his bed, and they had met with him a few times.

"Miss Gao." When the man saw Gao Qiqi enter the ward with a wheelchair, he politely greeted him. His attitude was cold and distant.

"Did you send my father to the hospital? "Thank you!" Gao Qiqi sincerely thanked her. After all, Gao Cheng was the main target of her mission. If she were to accidentally die because of this accident, it would be a huge problem for her.

"You're welcome, it's just a small matter. Since Miss Gao has come, I will take my leave now." The man didn't bother with pleasantries and only replied with a simple courtesy before taking his leave.

Qi Qi knew that the people living in their area were either rich or powerful. She knew that the other party was definitely busy, so she didn't stay any longer. After seeing them out, she thanked him once again.

The man stood at the door and looked at his seven or eight hands that were still on his knees. He frowned slightly and took out a delicate card from his pocket. He took out a white card and handed it over to her.

"This is my name card. If Miss Gao needs any help, please do not mention it." Without waiting for Qi Qi to decline, he nodded at her and turned to leave.

Qi Qi looked down at the name card in her hand and saw that there was only one name and one phone number on it. Other than that, there was nothing else. It was not as gaudy and full of titles as the business cards beside it, as if it was afraid that others would not know of its status.

"Jia Kun" softly said the name on the name card. Qi Qi Qi couldn't help but be stunned. This name was really rare. Jia Kun, fake!

Realizing that she was staring at the name of a stranger she had only met a few times, Qi Qi Qi couldn't help but laugh involuntarily. She casually put her business card into her pocket, then signaled the nurse behind her to push her to Gao Cheng's bedside.

"Is my father's illness serious?" Qi Qi Qi frowned and looked worriedly at Gao Cheng on the bed before turning around to look at the doctor who was standing at the end of the bed.

"Miss Gao, don't worry. Mr. Gao is just overworked, and he's been frightened by the fire. As long as he can take a good rest for a few days, it will be fine." On the other hand, your body is still very weak. You shouldn't have gotten out of bed, you should have just gone back to your room and rested. "

This doctor was also the attending physician of Gao Qiqi, and was relatively familiar with the situation of the Gao Clan. He knew that his father was only concerned about his health, so he advised him out of concern.

"Fire?" Qi Qi previously only heard that his father had been hospitalized in a coma, so she didn't know anything about the fire, so when she heard about it, she couldn't help but feel shocked.

"Miss Gao, you still don't know?" There's been a fire in your villa with Mr. Gao. I saw the news before I came. It's burned pretty badly, so I guess we can't live here anymore. "

The doctor seemed to be afraid that his wrong words would affect her body, so he quickly added, "Miss Gao, don't worry. When Mister Gao wakes up, he will definitely be able to handle this matter properly. Moreover, most villas will buy insurance, so the losses won't be too severe."

Hearing the doctor's consolation, Gao Qiqi bitterly smiled. They really didn't buy insurance, Gao Dazhi had always felt that insurance was unreliable, and because the company's property involved everyone's interests, there was no way for them to not buy insurance. However, for private property like the villa, Gao Dazhi was not the type of person who bought insurance.

The doctor told Seventh Seven to go back to his room and rest early before leaving. Seventh Seven pushed the wheelchair closer to the bed of Gao Cheng. Looking at Gao Cheng, who had clearly lost a lot of weight during this period of time, his heart ached.

It was unknown if it was because the company wanted her to have a taste of her parents' affection that she had never experienced before, but during these two missions, she had experienced the selfless love of her parents for her children. Of course, there were exceptions, and that was Shen Tingxiao.

Qi Qi was convinced that a person's character was closely related to the environment she grew up in. She had an intuition that once she understood Shen Ting's past, she would understand the reason behind all of her actions.

"Seventh Brother, why are you here? Why aren't you lying in bed? " Seeing that his daughter, who was supposed to be lying on the bed resting, was actually in front of his bed, Gao Cheng immediately forced himself to sit up, looking like he was about to lift up the blanket and push Qi Hua back into the ward.

"Dad, dad, hurry up and lie down. My body is much better now, don't only worry about me, take note of your body. Do you still have some drops hanging on your hand? Don't recover your blood! "

"How could a child like you be so reckless? How long has it been since you last got out of bed? What if your wounds split open?" Gao Cheng was afraid that it might affect his wound, so he gave up on the idea of getting off the bed. He just frowned as he looked at him.

"I just came to see you. Now that you're awake, I'm going back to the ward. Don't worry." Qi Qi paused, then looked up at Gao Cheng. "But …" Dad, the house is on fire, do you have any plans for the rest? "

"…" Hearing about the house, Gao Cheng fell into silence. Right now, he didn't have a clue, but he still had some money, but it was only a few million yuan. If he wanted to renovate the villa or buy another house, he probably wouldn't have any money left.

Dad, I think it's just the two of us, so there's no need for us to live in such a big house. We might as well just sell that piece of land, since the house is gone, and the land can still be sold.

She understood that if someone encountered many bad things one after another, they would eventually feel discouraged, but now was not the time to relax. The road in front of them was still very long, and it was not easy to walk on it, so they had to have a firm conviction to walk through it.

"Sell it! "If we sell it, we won't have a place to stay anymore. If we buy another one, it'll be a lot of money!" Gao Cheng furrowed his brows in thought for a moment. In the end, he still felt a little hesitant.

"NO!" "Dad, let's not buy a house, right now is the time for prices to go down. Buying a house is equivalent to losing money in business, we'll rent one first and talk about the house when the business gets bigger."

"Business has expanded!?" Gao Cheng stared at the wall in front of him as he murmured these words. His heart was filled with uncertainty. If he grew up in business, would he still be able to wait for such a day? The heavens did not seem to want him to realize his dream. Every time his career went up, there would always be something like this. Could he do it again this time?
