Chapter 18; She is the jinx!

Deep down, she was praying that he didn't have to rush in there sacrificing his life! She would protect him at all costs but she had overestimated his relationship with his adopted sister. They weren't that close that he would lose his life for her.

"Sister...." Zhou Yucheng tried to call her intimately, which he had never done, but in this lifetime, she would watch from the sidelines as everything unfolded!

"She is unconscious! She can't help them no matter what you say..." Third Master Mu glared back at him. He wasn't going to let them use Zhou Yuxi's emotions to blackmail her into doing things she couldn't manage to do that were so dangerous.

They didn't like her that much! Why would they think he would let them boss her around like that even at the risk of her life?

If they didn't love their mother and sibling that much, how did they expect Zhou Yuxi, who hadn't stayed with them that long, to sacrifice her life to rescue them? He wasn't going to allow anyone to endanger her life like that.

They could only pace around, gazing at that wildfire fiercely burning the mansion, and they could only watch until the fire rescuers arrived; Zhou Yuxi softly giggled, hiding in her Uncle's arms. Nothing calmed her like knowing they were struggling to breathe in that heavy smoke.

All the pain she felt in her previous life, they would receive it double! But who would have thought that her brothers and father wouldn't rescue them? She actually hadn't expected that her plan would fall through so easily! Was God on her side supporting her?

Third Master Mu kept her wrapped up as it was cold because of the rain! It didn't seem like the sun would be out any time soon as it was cloudy.

"Uncle, do you think I'm bad for not helping them?" Zhou Yuxi's aggrieved voice sounded as she sniffed sounding like someone who was crying.

"Since they don't think they are useful for them to rescue, then I don't think you need to sacrifice yourself like that! It's not a must for you to have parents to feel loved! I will always love you." He gently ruffled her hair gazing at those innocent round eyes that were gazing at him with adoration.

"Okay, Uncle." She felt better, even if he knew she was the one who did this, she hoped they wouldn't have any disagreements or fights. Her plan for revenge had to be flawless!

After ten minutes, they could now see two firefighter lorries with equipped rescuers driving into the compound. And behind them, it was Li Feng with their men. The moment he got notified of what was happening, he rushed over without delay.

With huge water horse pipes, they immediately began putting the fire out! Everyone stood at a distance, watching as they tried to put it out, wondering if Mu Shuang and Zhou Xiajong would survive this tragedy.

"Master, why did the mansion suddenly catch fire? What happened? Was there a robbery? Or it's someone who targeted you?" Li Feng, with his men, rushed over in their direction, looking worried; when he received that call, he immediately summoned their men and rushed over to see what could have happened.

"It's her... She is the jinx!" Zhou Zhenyu hurriedly pointed at Zhou Yuxi.

He hated her existence and wished she was never brought over to the Zhou family from the village. Today, with Third Master Mu's presence, things were getting out of hand, and the mansion had to burn down, If it wasn't for her, who would have brought bad luck to them?

His mansion was built with some fireproof material, and when they were awakened, they heard a first explosion closer to their bedroom. Someone must have targeted them and it could only be Zhou Yuxi.
