Boom!
A loud noise erupted in the calm Number 6 containment area. Ning Yu'er had just stepped out of a small door when she seemed to sense something unusual. She stared dumbly in the direction of the blast.
The courtyard where she resided, a place filled with memories, was engulfed in flames and debris as a column of fire exploded outward!
In an instant, memories flooded back. She thought of her father, Ning Tianlang, and her heart gave a painful jolt. It was like being gripped tightly, a feeling of near suffocation making her struggle for breath.
"No!"
All her earlier resentment towards her father vanished in an instant. Blinded by tears, Ning Yu'er choked out a cry and started running in the direction of the courtyard.
"What are you doing, come back!"
The moment Ning Yu'er tried to rush forward, Bai Jindong acted swiftly and reached out, grasping her hand and stopping her.
"My... my dad! Something's happened to my dad! I need to go back, don't stop me! Sob..."
