Chapter 2320: Fire (5 Updates)

2320

Xu Taiping didn't contact anyone from the Thompson family, but he didn't care because he had already left a message. After the Thomson family saw his message, they would naturally reply to him.

Xu Taiping put away his cell phone and was about to take a rest. At this moment, Xu Taiping's cell phone rang again.

The caller this time was Sister Chen.

After Xu Taiping hesitated for a moment, he picked up the phone.

"Xiao Xu, are you home yet? I called you before, but you haven't answered yet. I'm worried about you." Sister Chen said on the other end of the phone.

Xu Taiping smiled, sat on the sofa, and said, "Sister Chen, I'm already home. I have a showdown with her today and said I want a divorce."

"Really? This marriage is not a child's play. Have you thought about it clearly?" Sister Chen asked.

"I've thought about it clearly. I have suffered too much cowardice in this family. I don't want to suffer it anymore. I want to leave this family immediately. For no other reason than to breathe a sigh of relief in my past life!" Xu Taiping said excitedly.

"Hey, I still think you're too impulsive, but I can't say anything more. By the way, I'm going to..." As soon as Sister Chen said this, Xu Taiping interrupted her.

"Sister, let me tell you something." Xu Taiping said.

"What's going on?" Sister Chen asked.

"My wife's family has a big business. If I want a divorce, I have to hire a lawyer. However, I really don't have any money in my pocket. My wife used to take care of most of my money. Now I want to divorce her. She didn't return the money to me, so I didn't have money to hire a lawyer. I've asked about it. If I can hire a better lawyer for a divorce case like mine, the chances of winning are still very high. I will definitely win when the time comes. I can get at least 10 million yuan from their family! Sister, I am only a relative like you, and I want to ask you, can you lend me three thousand yuan? I will hire a better lawyer, so that I can get more Money." Xu Taiping said.

"You... want to borrow three thousand yuan from me?" Sister Chen asked in surprise.

"Yes, Sister Chen, I am really homeless and helpless now. If you don't help me, then I will have to fight alone. However, I am not very clear about the legal provisions. If we go through the divorce lawsuit like this, I'm afraid it's going to be a disaster," Xu Taiping said.

"Sister...I'm not very wealthy recently!" Sister Chen said hesitantly.

"Really? Then forget it. Hey, I can't always ask you to help me. I think you helped me so much in the beginning, and now I still ask you to help me. I really... Hey, since Sister Chen is in a tight situation, then forget it. Well, I'll go find someone else and see if I can find someone to help with the situation or do some online lending," Xu Taiping said.

"Online loans...don't want it anymore, right?" Sister Chen said.

Hearing Sister Chen's words, Xu Taiping was a little surprised and asked, "Why? I see that many people are taking out online loans now!"

"Online loans are a trap. Really, you will only owe more and more. If you can win the lawsuit by borrowing online loans, that's fine. If you can't win the lawsuit, then you may be trapped in unlimited routine loans. It won't take long for you to go bankrupt, so you might as well borrow it from relatives and friends," Sister Chen said.

"Really? Sister Chen, are you familiar with online loans?" Xu Taiping asked.

"This..." Sister Chen on the other end of the phone hesitated. To be honest, their telecom fraud is related to online loans. If they deceive someone deeply, they can even ask the other person to borrow money from a special platform. , this is not as simple as defrauding people of their savings, this is to deceive people into losing their money, selling cars and houses, but... Sister Chen will not do such a thing. After all, she... doesn't really want to harm people. people.

"I'm not very familiar with these, but I've seen them on TV. Anyway, don't go for online loans." Sister Chen said.

"Okay then. I can only find friends to make ends meet. I can't count on my relatives. I'm a married woman. Everyone sees me as a freeloader. How could they lend me money? We haven't contacted each other anymore. , Sister Chen, thank you, you are the only one who still cares about me!" Xu Taiping said.

"It doesn't matter, it's nothing." Sister Chen said.

"What about that, Sister Chen, I still have something to do, so that's it for now!" Xu Taiping said, hanging up the phone without waiting for the other party to reply, and then threw the phone on the sofa.

"This liar has no conscience at all!" Xu Taiping said to himself with a smile. According to his understanding of liars, the liar is eager for you to borrow more money and be deceived by her, but this Sister Chen still stopped him. Let him take out an online loan, which at least shows that this scammer still has some conscience.

Xu Taiping didn't go back to bed, he just lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.

Sleep until dawn.

Xu Taiping seemed to have not slept so comfortably for a long time. However, what surprised Xu Taiping was that the Thompson family did not return any calls to him in one night.

This is a bit abnormal. At night in China, it is daytime in Chu Ye Kingdom. From the time Xu Taiping called to Xu Taiping woke up, about an hour passed. During these ten hours, it is impossible that no one from the Thompson family would be there. Did you see your message?

Xu Taiping tried calling again, but received the same reply.

"Hello, this is the Thompson family. We are not at home. Please leave a message after the beep!"

Xu Taiping did not leave a message this time, but chose to hang up the phone. Then, Xu Taiping called his subordinates in Chu Ye Kingdom.

"Go to xx City, xx District, No. xx, and look for someone from the Thompson family."

Xu Taiping issued an order to his men, and then Xu Taiping's men could set off to where the Thompson family was.

Xu Taiping put away his phone and fell into deep thought.

At this moment, the sound of a rushing fire truck suddenly came from the block ahead.

Xu Taiping stood up and walked to the window to look out.

Fire trucks were driving away one after another.

on fire?

Xu Taiping raised his eyebrows, then looked into the distance.

In the distance, there seemed to be thick smoke coming out.

That direction... seems to be the direction of Jiangyuan University.

Xu Taiping picked up his cell phone and called Chen Wen, but the result was that he was on a call.

Xu Taiping hung up the phone and waited for about a minute before Chen Wen's call came back.

"Director Xu, are you looking for me?" Chen Wen asked.

"I saw a fire truck going in the direction of the school, and I also saw smoke, right in the direction of the school. Is the school on fire?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Yes, the mountain behind the school is on fire. I don't know what happened. It suddenly caught fire. Now the fire truck has arrived, and the fire is still very strong. I am now organizing people to go up the mountain to put out the fire!" Chen Wen said.

"Is the back mountain on fire? There are many trees on the back mountain. You have to be careful." Xu Taiping said.

"Well, no problem." Chen Wen nodded.

Xu Taiping hung up the phone and was about to go to the company. However, at this moment, Xu Taiping's cell phone suddenly rang again. This time the caller was Lin Youran.

Xu Taiping was a little surprised because Lin Youran had never called since he gave Lin Youran his phone number.

Xu Taiping picked up the phone.

Lin Youran's cry came from the other end of the phone.

"Director Xu, help me, help me." Lin Youran shouted.

"What's wrong?!" Xu Taiping asked quickly.

"There's a fire here, it's all fire, Director Xu. I'm in the back of the school. I'm so scared. They said the fire truck is coming, but the fire here is so big. I don't know where to go. Xu Director." Lin Youran cried.

"Where are you in the back mountain?" Xu Taiping asked.

"I...I'm here at the reading pavilion." Lin Youran said.

The Reading Pavilion is a place for people to study in the back hill of Jiangyuan University. Students often study there because it is quiet enough and the environment is good.

"Then just wait, I'll be there right away! Remember, you must not stand downwind, understand?" Xu Taiping said.

"I...I understand!" Lin Youran said.

Xu Taiping hung up the phone and quickly went downstairs towards Jiangyuan University.

Ten minutes later, Xu Taiping arrived at Jiangyuan University.

A warning cordon had already been set up at the entrance of Jiangyuan University, and thick smoke rose into the sky from the hill behind Jiangyuan University.

The fire was very fierce.

Xu Taiping passed directly through the cordon and headed towards the back mountain.

A few minutes later, Xu Taiping arrived at the foot of the back mountain.

At this time, at least one third of the entire back mountain was on fire.

Chen Wen and his group were standing at the foot of the mountain. Their faces were dark, and it was obvious that they had just finished lighting the fire.

"Why are you here? Where is the fire truck?" Xu Taiping asked.

"The fire trucks have already entered the mountain, but they won't let us in, saying it's too dangerous," Chen Wen said.

"How many fire trucks entered?" Xu Taiping asked.

"There are many, at least ten, and hundreds of people will enter the mountain!" Chen Wen said.

"Hundreds of people? Still not enough." Xu Taiping shook his head and walked up the mountain.

At this moment, a demonic wind suddenly blew, and the fire on the entire mountain suddenly became more intense. Moreover, the direction of the fire also changed. Originally, the fire was from west to east, and such a blow directly It burned from south to north.

Xu Taiping rushed straight into the mountain without staying at the foot of the mountain.

"Director Xu, be careful!" Chen Wen shouted.

Xu Taiping did not answer. His figure gradually moved away and disappeared in front of Chen Wen.

Xu Taiping entered the mountain much faster than the vehicle. He rushed towards the mountain. Not long after, Xu Taiping came into contact with the mountain fire.

Directly in front of Xu Taiping, several fire trucks had stopped. Someone was building an isolation zone and someone was putting out the fire.

"What are you doing? Come down the mountain quickly!" A firefighter shouted loudly when he saw Xu Taiping.

"I'm Xu Taiping, I'm here to help!" Xu Taiping shouted.

Xu Taiping is a golden name in Jiangyuan City, and everyone recognizes it.

Upon hearing the words Xu Taiping, all the firefighters present became energetic.
