Chapter 240 Heartache and Fear
After arriving at the police station, the police officers inside were also aware of their deeds, and they held Lin Yi and Han Xuewei in very high regard. If it weren't for their timely response, the situation might not have been resolved so smoothly.
Many people within the police station admired them greatly, especially after hearing some of the teachers' comments, they found Lin Yi and Han Xuewei's selflessness particularly admirable. Thus, the local police immediately posted a commendation notice on the internet.
It was specifically to commend those who had shown courage in the face of justice, including the two security guards at the kindergarten, as well as Han Xuewei and Mo Jihua.
Some of the crowd and teachers who helped extinguish the fire were also mentioned, with Han Xuewei and Mo Jihua standing out the most.
After all, the two of them had made great contributions and even managed to bring two children to safety. The incident was even captured in a rather blurry video, and the news about them spread across the entire internet platform that very day.
Their story made it to the top headlines, and various media outlets were racing to report on them.
Moreover, many people mistook Han Xuewei for Mo Jihua's wife, because they indeed looked like a well-matched pair, assuming they went to the kindergarten intending to enroll their child there.
Han Xuewei was unaware of this when she was at the police station; she hadn't expected the local police to misunderstand their relationship and to present them as a married couple in the reports.
It was also Han Xuewei's fault for not making it clear, but she hadn't anticipated that they would be mistaken for a married couple based on their appearance.
Their relationship was, in fact, that of teacher and student. By the time Han Xuewei returned home, she was very tired. She only saw those news reports late at night.
This time, she and Mo Jihua directly made it onto the trending search list. After this incident was released, the entire society was moved by it.
Setting fire in a kindergarten, where there were so many young children, was utterly devoid of conscience. Discussions about the incident on the internet were abuzz immediately, and the condemnation of the arsonist was boundless.
"My goodness, how could someone do such a thing, is her heart black?"
"Right, I had thought. Every kindergarten teacher would be very caring, but I never expected to encounter such a person; it's terrifying."
"Now, obtaining a kindergarten teaching qualification should have some conditions set, so one can't just pass the exam so easily."
"Ah, those things can't prevent malicious people; some are just born evil."
"I heard a rumor online that the woman actually had an affair with one of the managers, and she wanted to burn down the kindergarten in revenge."
"That's too horrifying. Even if she wanted revenge, that's her private business; how could she involve these children? Thankfully, my child doesn't go to that kindergarten."
"Yes, yes, it's way too dangerous. When choosing a kindergarten in the future, we'll definitely need to ask clearly and make sure there's assurance. People with such a strong vengeful mentality, who are a danger to society, should be given the death penalty outright."
The discussions on the internet were intense. This incident was indeed atrocious, and although it didn't result in any fatalities, it still attracted widespread attention. And a video was even circulating online, showing the moment when Han Xuewei treated a wounded Mo Jihua, holding a first aid kit.
At that time, Han Xuewei wasn't thinking too much; saving people was the priority.
However, the incident was shared online and immediately went viral. Nowadays, it's too easy to find someone's information on the internet, hence, Han Xuewei's personal information was quickly exposed by others.
From various clues, people learned that Han Xuewei was the long-esteemed campus belle of Xiangcheng University, rumored to have gotten married and had children. Therefore, based on the content of the video, people naturally assumed that Mo Jihua was Han Xuewei's husband.
Suddenly, the internet was abuzz, especially since Han Xuewei was very beautiful, which attracted even greater attention.
"Oh my God, such a beautiful girl and yet so kind-hearted, she's practically an Immortal sister."
"Right, calling her an Immortal isn't an exaggeration at all. If it were me, I probably wouldn't have the courage to run into that fire."
"You didn't see how chaotic the scene was, this Miss is really very brave."
"Yes, yes, and her husband is truly admirable, they are the most impressive model couple of the year."
Online, everyone began discussing the two of them. However, as it turned out, this was just a rumor, quickly quashed by the authorities of Xiangcheng University, as such talk wasn't good for either their teachers or their students.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Soon after, Han Xuewei returned home. She didn't know whether her family had seen the news or not, but she didn't say anything to them, not wanting to cause them worry.
Perhaps her family hadn't seen the news, and she could let the matter pass vaguely. But the moment she stepped through the door, she saw Lin Yi. Lin Yi was standing inside the room, his eyes reddening when he saw Han Xuewei.
He walked straight towards Han Xuewei, looked at her seriously, and then wrapped his arms around her tightly, "Vivi, I was really scared just now. Please don't do this again, okay? I was so worried about you."
Lin Yi's voice was choked with emotion, lacking his usual composure. Seeing this, Han Xuewei hugged Lin Yi tightly and patted his head.
"I'm sorry, husband. I thought you were angry with me just now. Please don't be angry, okay? Those news reports are all nonsense, I didn't do anything..."
Hearing this, Lin Yi hugged Han Xuewei tightly, and kissed her forehead, "Silly girl, how could I possibly misunderstand you? I was worried about you getting hurt. Think about how dangerous it was in there with the fire. Normally, I don't let you do anything risky, but this time you were quite brave, rushing straight into someone's fire scene!
Don't do this kind of thing again in the future, let the firefighters or the security handle it. You're a girl; you can't do this anymore. You scared me to death."
As Lin Yi spoke, he was somewhat confused, but very genuinely panicked. Seeing this, Han Xuewei nodded her head.
"I thought it was just a small fire at the time, so I grabbed a fire extinguisher and rushed up with everyone without thinking too much. This time I also saved two kids, husband, do you think I'm amazing?"
Han Xuewei said this to cheer Lin Yi up, revealing a smile.
Lin Yi still furrowed his brows deeply, simply holding Han Xuewei quietly.
"What would I do if something happened to you?"
