Chapter 732 - 349: 58 Lives Saved! God Jiang Goes Viral Again! (Part 2)
"Hello, ma’am, I’m Lin Zhe, the owner of the Youfu Inn. We owe it to your warning today; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable..."
A young man in his twenties, quite handsome and charming, squeezed through the crowd to Bai Yulan and thanked her sincerely.
If it weren’t for Bai Yulan’s warning tonight, more than fifty guests would have been buried by the landslide at the inn!
More than fifty lives, reaching the standard of a major accident.
Although it’s a natural disaster, Lin Zhe, the owner, would still have to bear significant legal responsibility!
Compensation for injuries and fatalities would cost in the millions, and he might even end up in jail!
Tonight is indeed a blessing in disguise.
The inn is gone, causing great economic loss, but fortunately, there were no casualties.
Bai Yulan said, "It’s my brother who notified me, and then I informed everyone. If you want to thank someone, you should thank my brother the most."
"Ah? Your brother?"
Lin Zhe glanced around, trying to find Bai Yulan’s brother.
"He’s not here, he’s over in our hometown, just now..."
Bai Yulan patiently repeated what she had just explained to everyone.
Though this event seems somewhat bizarre, it genuinely happened.
Facts are the best explanation.
"Oh, my brother is a very positive streamer on KuaiDou, called Xiao Jiang Can’t Run."
To gain more exposure for Jiang Tao, Bai Yulan directly revealed his KuaiDou account.
With such overwhelming traffic, she naturally wanted to redirect it to Jiang Tao.
"Ah? The Xiao Jiang Can’t Run you mentioned wouldn’t happen to be God Jiang, would it?"
Lin Zhe was immediately astonished upon hearing the nickname that Bai Yulan revealed.
Bai Yulan nodded, "Yes, that’s him. I see many netizens also call him God Jiang."
"Oh my God! It’s God Jiang! It’s him! I’m a fan of God Jiang; just two days ago, I was watching his videos!"
Discovering that Bai Yulan’s brother was his idol Jiang Tao, Lin Zhe was both surprised and delighted, even feeling a twist of fate!
Though they had never met, a single call from God Jiang saved the lives of over 50 guests at his inn!
For Lin Zhe, this was indeed a huge favor!
"God Jiang! It was God Jiang who saved us! I’m also a fan of God Jiang! Fate truly is incredible!"
"Me too, me too! God Jiang is so cool! I’m a diehard fan! Next time he streams, I’ll sincerely thank him!"
"God Jiang? Wasn’t he the young man on the hot search a few days ago for playing amazing golf?"
"That’s him! To save one life is considered greater than building a seven-story pagoda; this young man saved so many lives, that’s a great act of merit!"
Rain continued to fall, with more and more guests evacuating from the inn gathering at the pavilion where Bai Yulan and others were.
Upon hearing the conversation between Bai Yulan and Lin Zhe, more people expressed their recognition of Jiang Tao, each praising him highly.
Though Jiang Tao didn’t appear tonight and was miles away, everyone’s appreciation towards him remained unaffected!
After thanking Bai Yulan face-to-face, as everyone’s emotions gradually stabilized, they began sharing their survival joy on social media.
"Tonight I narrowly escaped death, thanks to God Jiang @Xiao Jiang Can’t Run for saving my life!"
"The wonder of fate, though we’ve never met, God Jiang has become my lifesaver! @Xiao Jiang Can’t Run"
"This life was given by God Jiang @Xiao Jiang Can’t Run!"
"After surviving such a calamity, I’ve turned into a diehard fan of God Jiang @Xiao Jiang Can’t Run! Thank you, God Jiang, for saving my life!"
"One phone call saved 58 lives! God Jiang @Xiao Jiang Can’t Run deserves immense gratitude! I hope to thank you face-to-face!"
Some posted on their friends’ circles, others on Weibo, and still others shared their terrifying moments on KuaiDou.
While everyone posted their updates, the accompanying images were quite similar.
The nighttime scene of torrential rain.
The inn in the distance buried by the landslide.
The pavilion where everyone huddled for warmth.
Though everyone came from different backgrounds, various ages, and genders.
Having experienced tonight’s event and faced life and death together, they felt a connection.
Someone suggested creating a WeChat group to maintain contact.
The proposal was quickly accepted unanimously.
Moreover, they suggested making Bai Yulan the group leader.
Realizing it would benefit both herself and Jiang Tao, Bai Yulan gladly agreed.
She had been staying at the Youfu Inn, originally an unremarkable inn within the scenic area.
But recently it had gained sudden fame, becoming the most popular inn in the area.
As the inn upgraded room quality, prices rose sharply, with the cheapest room costing 2888 yuan per night.
Those able to afford such an inn generally had good financial standing.
Both Bai Yulan and Jiang Tao were in business, and meeting quality customers would benefit their future business and career.
After forming the group, Bai Yulan gathered everyone in, finally adding Jiang Tao to it as well.
"Thank God Jiang for saving our lives!"
"Thank God Jiang for saving our lives!"
"Thank God Jiang for saving our lives!"
"..."
As soon as Jiang Tao joined the group, everyone uniformly expressed gratitude towards him.
Clearly, a few simple words couldn’t fully convey their appreciation!
This wasn’t some minor favor; it was a life-saving one!
Feeling their warmth and gratitude, Jiang Tao was at a loss for words.
Believe it or not, saving so many people with one call gave Jiang Tao a great sense of accomplishment.
The group remained lively until after 3 AM before gradually quieting down.
Bai Yulan mentioned that key figures from the scenic area, even the committee and the city, had sent dedicated teams to the site to manage the situation.
Late at night, a time when all should be tranquil.
Yet the rain and mudslide thousands of kilometers away unstintingly made it to the local trending topics.
Spreading quickly, it even landed on the national hot search.
"Thank God Jiang for saving my life!"
"One phone call saved 58 lives! God Jiang is amazing!"
"God Jiang truly has divine status now!"
"58 lucky people!"
This major natural disaster incident did not cause any casualties.
Moreover, it involved a significant influencer with millions of fans.
Thus, local departments were proactive in their cooperation with the publicity.
Misfortune with blessings to follow!
Maybe this incident’s impact could even help promote the local tourism industry.
Under varied promotion, Jiang Tao went viral again within two days!
The development of this incident was beyond Jiang Tao’s expectations.
Originally he just intended to notify Bai Yulan to evacuate the dangerous area.
While also reminding other inn guests.
Beyond that, he hadn’t thought much.
Now, he became a hero who saved 58 lives!
Late at night, Jiang Tao received over a dozen calls.
Some were thank-you calls from inn owners and scenic area committees.
Others were calls from various government departments where the scenic area was located.
Aside from verbal gratitude, there were promises of numerous rewards.
Including honorary and material aspects.
Overall, what seemed an ordinary piece of information brought Jiang Tao unexpected value.
AM.
After over three hours of continuous calls and receiving over 20 calls, Jiang Tao’s phone finally quieted down.
Luckily, he was staying in a suite with a meeting room.
The sleeping He Jing wasn’t disturbed.
"Phew, finally no more calls."
"Why does it feel more tiring than working a whole day..."
Exhausted, Jiang Tao turned off his phone and returned to bed to cuddle He Jing and sleep.
