Chapter 698: Mommy Won’t Leave
Rainy held her mother’s neck tightly and was frightened.
Inside the mall, there were frequent screams, cries, curses, and calls for help from people. The smoke got increasingly bigger, and there was even a stampede.
Xia Ruoxin used her hand to cover her daughter’s mouth and nose while she coughed nonstop. She did not dare run towards the crowd as she was afraid that they would squeeze them.
Everyone ran towards a single emergency exit as perhaps the employees had forgotten, but the emergency exits on one side were all closed. Even the elevator stopped operating while the other end was filled with smoke. The fire followed the route and burned over. The mall was filled with flammable clothes so the fire became bigger and bigger and out of control.
Xia Ruoxin was worried to the point where she was pale. She followed the crowd and ran towards the central escalator. Before she even reached there, the escalator was filled with people. Bang! Someone cried out loud. The people getting down… perhaps they ran too fast or were pushed by the people behind, but they all rolled down.
Today was already a weekend and including the mass sales that the mall was having, there were many people in the mall. Additionally, the fire happened too suddenly so everyone started panicking and were vying to rush out for their lives.
Xia Ruoxin kept coughing and pressed her daughter’s face against her chest.
