Chapter 1160: If Only It Was Just a Dream
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Instead, Nian Xiaomu, his granddaughter borne by his first son, already had the aura of a Queen at a young age, with a drive that was comparable to that of any male!
She had been the precious gem of the elderly head of the household since she was young.
Long ago during Nian Xiaomu’s coming of age ceremony, the elderly head of the household had already explicitly indicated that he wanted to directly groom his granddaughter to be the heir. In addition, he even made an exception and passed her the Mo Family warrant in advance for safekeeping.
On the day of the accident, Nian Xiaomu walked toward the direction of the study room upon hearing the quarrels in there.
As Tan Bengbeng was her secret guard, she spent most of her time protecting Nian Xiaomu in the dark and did not interact with her at all.
On the other hand, the Young Mistress of the Mo Family had heard some commotion outside and walked out to stop her.
She said that her father was merely discussing some business matters with her uncle and that it wasn’t anything serious. She did not want her precious daughter to remain standing for too long with her pregnant tummy and helped her back into her room to get some rest…
All Tan Bengbeng did was to follow behind Nian Xiaomu, who was easily exhausted as her labor was due very soon.
After she fell asleep, Tan Bengbeng hid in a dark corner and silently watched over her.
Groggy, she took a short nap as well after she saw that she was sleeping soundly.
However, when she woke up, the dark night was already filled with bright, huge flames…
The fire that had started from level one seemed to have been splashed with gasoline.
The fire spread at a shocking speed.
Within a few minutes, it had engulfed the entire villa.
However, the bodyguards seemed to have been sent away as none of them could be spotted in the villa.
Just as Tan Bengbeng was about to make a phone call, she realized that there was no signal in the entire villa…
She had some sort of premonition at that very second.
The fire had started from level one. Mo Qian and Nian Nianyu’s room was on level one too, while thick, warm smoke started to swarm up to level two.
Tan Bengbeng woke Nian Xiaomu up immediately and wanted to take her away.
Nian Xiaomu was unwilling to be taken away and was in a hurry to look for her parents, but the fire was too big.
The moment they pulled the door open, the horrifying tongue of the flames rolled in.
A normal human being would not be able to withstand the thick smoke, much less Nian Xiaomu, a pregnant lady.
Despite so, she still rushed into the bathroom and took a wet towel to cover her mouth.
Then, she ran out, determined to look for her parents.
The fortunate thing was, Mo Qian and Nian Nianyu had retreated upstairs and she bumped into both of them the moment she stepped out of the door.
A group of ruffians clad in insulated suits and armed with weapons followed closely behind them…
Mo Qian and Nian Nianyu seemed to have been drugged; not only were their entire body filled with burn injuries, but they were also walking with unsteady footsteps.
When Mo Qian and Nian Nianyu noticed Nian Xiaomu, who was standing at the front of the room, they screamed and told her to run away with piercing voices.
“Daddy!”
“Mummy!”
However, how could Nian Xiaomu run away when her severely injured parents were standing in front of her?
Just as she was about to rush forward, Mo Qian shouted at Tan Bengbeng, who was standing beside her.
“What are you waiting for? Take Liuliu away!”
Very quickly, the raging fire started to spread to the second level.
Judging from their current situation, even if they were not burnt to death by the fire, they would definitely be killed by the ruffians.
Before Tan Bengbeng could react, Mo Qian had already used up the last ounce of energy in him and rushed forward to both of them. Along with Nian Nianyu, he pushed Nian Xiaomu back into the room and locked her in.
He howled at her.
“Liuliu, listen to Daddy, quickly leave! Daddy and Mummy are fearless as long as you are fine…”
“Remember, you must survive… No matter what happens, you have to carry on living life well…”
“Also, Daddy and Mummy love you… You will always be our precious gem… Quickly leave!”
