Chapter 593: A Forced Kiss on a Rainy Night (7)
Translator: 549690339
Because of the relationship she had with Zuo Hancheng, the psychological guidance Wenner had given her, and the fact that she had left the Gu family a long time ago, Anhao had already let go of the nightmares she had when she was young.
However, at this moment, her mind was filled with the things that happened more than three years ago. She could feel the temperature of her entire body drop bit by bit. Although Zuo Hancheng had protected her in a corner and asked her to maintain a posture to save herself, what she was afraid of was not the impending danger.
It was the moment the darkness invaded her, the moment Zuo Hanchengs aura surrounded her, and she was almost crushed by the memories of the past.
The words that she had been holding back in her heart for a long time, when she heard Zuo Hanchengs concerned question, she did not hear what he said. She slowly leaned her head into his arms, lowered her head, and said softly,”Zuo Hancheng…”
Zuo Hancheng heard a cracking sound coming from above. He placed his hands around Anhao’s body and said in a low voice, ”’What’s wrong?”
“I’m sorry.” Anhao said in a very soft voice.
However, the moment she finished speaking, the elevator suddenly descended rapidly. She did not know if Zuo Hancheng heard her, but he quickly hugged her tightly as he fell. Anhao closed her eyes and leaned into his arms.
When the elevator almost stopped at the second basement floor, it did not land directly. Instead, it acted as a buffer in the middle to reduce the damage that the two of them would suffer in the elevator. Finally, it landed heavily at the bottom of the second basement floor.
Even though there was a cushion in the middle and the fall was not too serious, Anhao still felt her calves go numb the moment she landed. She felt a huge pain under her feet and almost fell down. Zuo Hancheng held her with one hand and pressed the buttons in the elevator that had suddenly lit up with the other. However, the buttons were still not working and the emergency button did not respond.
In the elevator, only Anhao’s heavy breathing could be heard. Zuo Hancheng took out his phone and switched on the flashlight. At the same time, he looked at Anhao and saw that there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead and her face was pale.
“Did you fall?” Zuo Hancheng held her shoulder. Where does it hurt?”
Anhao shook her head.” I’m fine. I’m just a little out of breath. My legs were shaken. I’ll be fine in a while.’
The elevator was no longer so dark because of the light from the phone. Anhao raised her hand to cover her face.”l’m fine. Don’t look at me. Think of a way to get out first…”
However, before she could finish her sentence, the hand that she had raised to cover her face was pulled away by him. Zuo Hanchengs expression was serious and calm, which made her feel at ease.”Since there’s nothing else, let’s check if there’s any signal on the phone first. Now’s not the time to let your imagination run wild.”
Only then did Anhao react. She nodded and quickly took out her phone from her bag, but before she took it out, she had already thought of a result.
Indeed…There was no signal on his phone at all.
The elevator had always been isolated from the signal, and even the best phone was the same.
Zuo Hancheng also picked up the phone that he had placed at the side and glanced at it. Then, he put it down again and let the flashlight from the phone light up the entire elevator.
“Although the power in the elevator has been cut off, the security guards and staff will soon notice that something is wrong with the elevator. It won’t be long before they realize that we’re trapped here.”
Anhao took a deep breath.
Zuo Hancheng suddenly glanced at her, his gaze unfathomable and dazed.””What did you just say to me?”
Anhao suddenly remembered the darkness of the enclosed space and the emotions that had stimulated her so much that she almost cried. She also remembered the apology. She definitely did not have the mood or courage to say it now.
Otherwise, she was afraid that the drama would turn into a drama.
“It’s nothing. I just wanted to say that you shouldn’t only care about me. If the elevator falls, you have to be careful. In the end, the elevator fell before I could finish my words.”
Anhao avoided his gaze and rummaged through her bag.” Every employee in the construction department has a GPS transmitter because once the renovation starts, we have to go to the construction site often to observe. If there’s an emergency and we fall into a well, we can save ourselves…He did not know if this thing would be useful here.”
As she spoke, she took out the GPS transmitter. Seeing that there was still some signal on the transmitter, she pressed the emergency call button, hoping that the surveillance equipment at the government F would receive the emergency situation here and report the situation to the security department of this mall as soon as possible.
She was afraid that she would suffocate in the elevator if she was trapped for too long.
After she was done, she looked up and saw Zuo Hancheng looking at her.
She found it difficult to breathe because the air here was too tight.
Fortunately, the light on her phone made her feel less uncomfortable.
However, Zuo Hancheng did not look like he was trapped in the elevator at all. Instead, he looked like he was on vacation at the beach. He did not look embarrassed at all. He was even more calm as if he would not be anxious even if he was trapped here for a day and a night.
He indeed had a reason to be anxious.
After all, he was busy with work and had a lot of phone calls. If he suddenly lost contact with a big BOSS like Zuo Hancheng, after a certain period of time, there would definitely be people who would suspect that Boss Zuo had encountered some danger or unexpected situation. There would definitely be countless people who would rush to find him.
Unlike her, even if she really disappeared one day…Perhaps no one would be in a hurry to look for her.
“What were you thinking about just now? In my impression, you, Gu Anhao, are clearly a fearless little tyrant. How can a three-story building scare you like this?”Zuo Hancheng looked at her and asked,”ls it because it’s too dark here?””
“..”Anhao stood upright and took a deep breath.””When did I say I was afraid?”
Zuo Hanchengs smile was somewhat ambiguous.””Your ability to lie is no different from three years ago.”
Anhao’s lips twitched. She stood upright in the elevator and stared at the elevator door, hoping that a miracle would happen and that it would open immediately.
She stared at him while trying to remain calm. With a straight face, she said,”Now that this is a rare misfortune, I’m not in the mood to bicker with you.”
“Didn’t you scold me in your heart just now?” Zuo Hancheng scoffed.”
Anhao immediately turned to glare at him.
Did this man read minds or something?
When she glared at him, Zuo Hanchengs handsome eyebrows raised slightly,
as if he had caught her little emotions and found them funny. However, when Anhao glared at him in dissatisfaction, he just looked into her eyes.
Anhao retracted her gaze helplessly and looked up at the elevator door again. She clenched her hands into fists on both sides of her body and tried her best to suppress her voice to a flat tone..”Zuo Hancheng, do you think I’m especially unlucky whenever I meet you?”
