Chapter 1657: A Blessing in Disguise!
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The fire was like a fuse!
After the explosion, it instantly detonated the surroundings!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
It was as if multiple bombs had exploded at the same time!
Deafening sounds, terrifying flames, and scary orange-red air currents appeared!
Ye Feng could see it happening.
The explosion caused by the cigarette butt next to the trash can seemed to have triggered some kind of chain reaction.
First, it caused an explosion in the Michelin star restaurant!
Then, on the second and third floors of the mall above the Michelin restaurant!
All the glass shattered instantly!
The air current carried the glass shards and shot out!
After that, it was the nearby building!
Street!
Cars…
It was as if in an instant, the area that was dozens of meters around the road construction project was covered in a sea of fire!
Countless screams rang out!
It was like hell on earth!
After a long time, the scene seemed to have calmed down a little when countless sirens and the shrieks of fire engines could be heard.
Then, there was an explosion of discussion.
“There really was a big explosion!”
“And it’s an unprecedented large-scale chain explosion!”
“To be honest, when I heard these emergency broadcasts just now, I thought it was nonsense or a prank.”
“Although I smelled a bit of natural gas, I didn’t think much of it.”
“Fortunately, a group of Chinese rushed into the mall and almost forced me out!”
“My legs are still weak!”
“My situation is similar to yours. At that time, I had just brought my lover to the hotel room and was ready to have a good time. When I heard the emergency notice, I was furious. At that time, a group of Chinese barged in and wanted to take us away. I was not happy and had a conflict with them. I kicked one of them!”
“Now that I think about it, I really deserve to die!”
“They were trying to save our lives!”
“Me too!”
“I was going to the toilet when I suddenly heard an emergency notice. Someone even broke into my stall. I was so angry…”
“It’s all thanks to those Chinese who suddenly barged in!”
“…”
“By the way, does anyone know who these Chinese people are?”
“Why did they suddenly appear, issue an emergency notice, and even help us evacuate!”
“Logically speaking, if abnormalities such as natural gas leaks are discovered, shouldn’t the city agencies and firefighters arrange for an emergency evacuation?”
“What’s going on?”
“Why are all the city agencies and fire departments absent? Why is it a bunch of Chinese people who came out instead?”
“And these Chinese people look familiar.”
“It seems to be someone from the Prosperity Society?”
“…”
“The Prosperity Society?”
“Right, now that you mention it, I remember now. These seem to be people from the Prosperity Society!”
“A Chinese man was in charge of maintaining order at the elevator entrance just now. I’ve seen him several times. He runs a restaurant on a nearby street.”
“Their beef chow fun, red rice sausage, and shrimp dumplings are all very delicious. I often go there to eat!”
“He is indeed from the Prosperity Society!”
“Yes, yes, yes. And the few people who were responsible for the cordon outside the first floor of the mall just now!”
“I like Chinese martial arts very much. I signed up for a Chinese boxing class, and those people are all students in the boxing school.”
“I know them. They are indeed from the Prosperity Society!”
“In that case, although I don’t know why the city agencies and fire departments were absent this time, we were indeed saved by the people from the Prosperity Society.”
“The Prosperity Society has done a great deed this time!”
“If it weren’t for their emergency warning and evacuation, at least a hundred people would have died in the explosion caused by the gas pipeline leak, right?”
“…”
As the discussions broke out, many people hurriedly thanked the members of the Prosperity Society.
They either took out their phones to tell their families they were safe or posted what they saw on social media.
…
At this moment, Yu Fengsheng’s phone rang.
After the call was connected, a slightly cheerful voice sounded from within.
Ye Feng did not want to listen to the content of the message.
However, from the way Yu Fengsheng looked at him from time to time when she answered the phone, he could vaguely tell something.
When Yu Fengsheng ended the call, he looked over again and smiled at her. “Your uncle?”
Yu Fengsheng nodded, her eyes shining with a strange light as she said, “He asked me to thank you.”
“This time, not only has the Prosperity Society become famous, but their image has also become much more positive.”
“The indirect value of these to the Prosperity Society is beyond imagination.”
Ye Feng smiled back. “That is also because the Prosperity Society was decisive enough, and their organization and mobilization skills were strong enough.”
“To be honest, the way your people were able to control the emergency broadcast in the major shopping malls and buildings immediately, and arranging for people to control the main passages and evacuate the traffic at the first moment… I’m also quite surprised.”
“Even some professional emergency teams might not be able to do so quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly.”
“Don’t be so humble.” Yu Fengsheng smiled. “Anyway, my uncle and I feel that the main credit for this is still yours.”
“My uncle will remember your kindness for this.”
“He said that after dealing with the aftermath of today’s incident, he will specially invite you over for tea.”
“Give me your contact information in the Sun Never Sets Empire. I’ll contact you later.”
Ye Feng did not bother with formalities.
Seeing that there was nothing else he needed to do at the scene and that his goal for the day had been achieved, he exchanged contact information with Yu Fengsheng and prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, just as he took a few steps, his phone vibrated crazily.
Cheng Fei’er called.
After the call connected, Cheng Fei’er’s slightly nervous voice came from the other end. “Ye Feng, after you left the restaurant with Yu Fengsheng, where did you go?”
“After I saw you guys leave, I turned off the communication and left with my colleagues. I just heard that there was an unprecedented explosion at the Michelin restaurant where you guys ate together.”
“Are you alright?”
“I’m fine.” Ye Feng could hear the concern and nervousness in her tone. He smiled and said, “Moreover, this is a blessing in disguise.”
“The connection at the Prosperity Society is stable.”
“I’ll tell you the details later.”
“In short, there’s no need to rush.”
“Alright.” Cheng Fei’er did not ask further. “It’s good that you’re fine.”
“Then I’ll continue to deal with some work with my colleagues.”
“If there’s any situation or if you need help, let me know at any time.”
Ye Feng agreed.
After hanging up the phone, he was about to leave when he suddenly saw two familiar beautiful figures in front of him.
Sister Hong? And Xia Qiu?
