“Qian’er, I’m going too!” Jia Xiufang’s mind went blank, scared out of her wits.

“Mom, stay home, I’ll be fine going by myself,” Xiao Qian said.

“Sis, I’ll go with you,” Chen Zilong said.

Xiao Qian glared at him, “You coward, stay home and look after Mom. Can’t you see she’s scared out of her wits?”

“How will you come back later?” Jia Xiufang worried about her daughter’s safety.

Xiao Qian glanced at the sullen-faced Yu Minglang.

“This righteous-faced gentleman here will send me home safely, won’t you?”

This little troublemaker… Yu Minglang’s teeth itched with annoyance.

Yu Minglang took off his coat and draped it over Xiao Qian. Jia Xiufang found this action strange and stared for a few more seconds, wanting to say something but decided against it.

Wrapped in his warm coat, Xiao Qian was reminded of the feeling she had in her past life when he saved her and put a coat over her.

Yu Minglang was exceptionally clean, so clean that even his breath was faint. Perhaps it was because he was a sniper, and he wouldn’t use any scented cleaning products to reduce his presence as much as possible. Even though his clothes had no scent, Xiao Qian felt that wearing them gave her a unique sensation.

“I’m not cold,” she offered to return his coat.

“Keep it on!” He was still angry and didn’t look at Xiao Qian. His voice was cold.

Xiao Qian couldn’t figure out why he was so insistent on her wearing the coat until she looked down and saw her pajamas. She understood then.

Her face flushed slightly, and she buttoned up the coat.

At the police station, it took over an hour to cooperate and complete the record.

Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang sat together with both of them side by side on the sofa in the police station. An officer took notes on a small notebook.

“Reporting party, please describethe course of the incident,” the officer said.

“I was about to go to sleep when 1 heard noises downstairs. I opened the window and saw this righteous-faced gentleman here catching a bad guy. I went downstairs, and the fire started.”

“Comrade, please show your ID,” the officer said.

Yu Minglang took out his ID, his face darker than the bottom of a pot.

After completing the record, it was already 11 pm, and Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang walked out one after the other.

Yu Minglang grabbed her wrist.

“Follow me!”

Ignoring her protest, he dragged her to his car. As soon as the car door closed, the small space became exclusive to both of them.

“What do you want, to rob me of my wealth or…Ah! Oh no, I forgot, my wealth is loaned from you. You’re not interested in an 18-year-old girl, are you? Your overwhelming sense of justice wouldn’t allow you to take advantage of an 18-year-old, would it?”

She glanced at him from the corner of her eye, his face darkened for the whole night, still like that outside.

Yu Minglang hated himself for being momentarily distracted and letting his guard down, almost allowing this girl to cause a huge disaster!

“Chen Xiaoqian, do you even know what you’re doing! How dangerous it was just now, do you know?”

“What are you talking about? I don’t understand.” Xiao Qian refused to admit anything.

Yes, she deliberately set the fire, so what?

If she didn’t start the fire, wouldn’t those people be sentenced to lighter punishments? And the ones behind it all would get away scot-free?

They dared to mess with her, not realizing if she, Chen Xiaoqian, was so easy to bully!

“Stop playing dumb!” Yu Minglang’s voice was extremely stern, but Xiao Qian was not afraid.

“What am 1 pretending? We did the record together, you know what just happened. Are you saying you want to change your statement?”

She knew he couldn’t bear to hurt her.

If Yu Minglang was really uncompromising, he would have exposed her at the police station. Of course, there was no evidence and the police wouldn’t believe anyone could be so cruel as to burn down their own home.

“Chen Xiaoqian! Do you know how dangerous your actions were?!”

“When those people set fire to my home, did they consider that? Yu Minglang, what are you so angry about? If you didn’t take action, what would be the difference between our family now and before? If you hadn’t come, we might have been burned to death!”

Without Yu Minglang, her home would be burnt, and those people would run away and evade justice.

With Yu Minglang’s help, her house might not be burned but the culprits would receive lighter punishment at best considering their attempted arson.

How could she let her child’s father’s efforts be taken advantage of by the bad guys?

Xiao Qian wished the fire would be even more intense; the bigger it was, the more trouble the mastermind would be in.

“The fire could have been avoided! Did you consider your own safety? What if it burned you?” He really wanted to teach her a lesson!

Whenever he thought of the reckless things this girl did, his usually calm heart would start pounding with rage.

“How could it burn me when you were right by my side? How could you possibly let me get hurt?”

She blurted it out without thinking. Her subconscious thought was that with Yu Minglang by her side, she would not get hurt.

Once she said it, she felt awlward. Yu Minglang’s furious heart, however, calmed down somewhat.

The car fell silent momentarily before he broke the silence, clearing his throat first.

“Even so, it’s not allowed! What if it burned you?!”

“The fire wouldn’t spread to anyone else’s house. I calculated the wind speed, the amount of gasoline, and the distance between us and our neighbors and the fire department. Based on their response time, the fire would definitely be under control,” said Xiao Qian.

She never explained her actions to anyone, but somehow, she felt that if she didn’t explain this time, Yu Minglang might be upset for a long time.

“How can you be so sure!”

“The combustion rate of gasoline is directly proportional to the surface area at a unit of millimeters per minute. The burning speed of gasoline varies depending on the combustion environment. If the formula is used for the calculation, the fire would take at least 10 minutes to fully ignite and spread to the neighbors in at least 30 minutes or more. The fire station is just a few kilometers away from our village. Based on their response time, I calculated that the probability of controlling the fire is 99%. Are you satisfied?”

Yu Minglang frowned, “You studied science?”

“Liberal arts. If it wasn’t for a slight fever during the College Entrance Exam, I would’ve been the top student in the city.”

In her previous life, she had at least achieved a doctorate degree. If she couldn’t handle this much, she might as well knock her head against the wall and kill herself.

A bright girl indeed—wait a minute, where did this overwhelming sense of satisfaction come from?

Yu Minglang quickly corrected himself. With this girl’s recklessness, if left unchecked, who knows what trouble she would cause in the future.

But who was going to watch her? This girl was like a little tyrant, and everyone in her family listened to her!
