Chapter 142: Madam Jian, Qiao Shuyi
Startled, everyone looked up.
Looking closely, Jian Ai’s seat was empty.
The warm water flowed down Jian Ai’s smooth skin, and the coldness in her body because of the jump gradually subsided.
Under the shower, Jian Ai raised her head and let the water slap her face. Her chaotic emotions finally slowed down.
Although she had the mental cultivation techniques to protect her body, Jian Ai couldn’t help but feel a bit scared when she thought of what had just happened.
Fortunately, she was just more scared than hurt. However, Jian Ai’s emotions were a bit complicated when she thought of the unconscious Lin Yi.
After washing away her fatigue, Jian Ai dried her body and looked at the phone she had specially brought out. She walked forward and picked it up, but she could not use the phone because it had been drenched in water.
At this time, no matter how expensive a mobile phone was, it had no waterproof function.
Sighing helplessly, Jian Ai looked at the completely black screen of her phone and held her forehead in frustration. It was still alright to lose Bai Zhou’s number. However, the only way to contact Brother Wu Bi was saved in it.
At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
“Yiyi!”
The voice arrived before they could see anyone.
Then, they saw a woman rushing in nervously, with two men following her.
The woman had long black hair that reached her shoulders. Although she was almost forty years old, she maintained herself like a twenty-year-old girl. Her appearance was beautiful, and her temperament was outstanding. Even though she was walking hurriedly, it could not hide the dignified elegance she exuded from the inside.
“Mom!”
When Jian Yiyi saw the person, she cried and ran over.
“My baby, you scared me to death!” The woman hugged Jian Yiyi and cried with her daughter.
The person who came was none other than Jian Yiyi’s mother, Jian Changsheng’s wife, Qiao Shuyi.
“Quickly let Mom look. Are you hurt?”
Qiao Shuyi held Jian Yiyi’s ash-filled face and sized her up anxiously. Jian Yiyi shook her head with tears in her eyes. “Mom, I’m fine.”
“Auntie Qiao…”
Li Yunmei stood up and walked over. When Qiao Shuyi saw Li Yunmei, she asked with concern, “Xiao Mei, you’re fine too, right?”
Li Yunmei shook her head with red eyes. Qiao Shuyi could not help but feel relieved. “Don’t worry. Your father will be here soon.”
“Children, you’ve been frightened. Fortunately, everyone is safe.”
As she spoke, Qiao Shuyi didn’t forget to care about the other children. After all, this was their family’s resort hotel. If an irreversible tragedy happened because of the fire, they would hold their Jian Group accountable.
“Mom, where’s Dad…” Jian Yiyi looked at the door behind Qiao Shuyi repeatedly, but her father didn’t appear.
Qiao Shuyi sighed. “Your father went to the capital for a business trip tonight, but he knows about this big incident now. It’s just that he has to sign a contract with a business partner in the capital tomorrow, so he can’t rush back immediately. Fortunately, you and your classmates are fine. I’ll report your safety later to reassure him.”
As she spoke, the bathroom door was pushed open and Jian Ai walked out in a clean bathrobe.
As if she didn’t expect that there was another person in the bathroom, Qiao Shuyi was shocked. However, Jian Ai had a stony expression on her face. Before Qiao Shuyi could say anything, she looked at her and said, “Auntie, not everyone is safe. An unconscious person is lying in the medical room.”
