I suddenly woke up from my drowsiness.

"What happened?"

In an instant, many terrible possibilities came to my mind.

Something happened to King Yao's project? Li Zhenyue acted like a monster again? Or are there any new rumors?

"Wait until you get to the company and tell me in person!" Li Yunzhou said seriously and hung up the phone.

I didn't have time to think too much. I didn't even bother to comb my hair and immediately drove to Li's Group.

It's already ten o'clock in the evening, and all my colleagues have gone off work.

I stood under the office building and looked up to see that only Li Yunzhou's office on the top floor was still lit.

Quickly take the elevator upstairs.

I thought something happened to the company, and Li Yunzhou must have summoned many people overnight.

After entering the office, I was dumbfounded. Apart from him, where else was there?

The suit jacket he took off was casually placed on the chair. The office had plenty of heating on. He only wore a thin shirt with the collar buttons unbuttoned, revealing his fair and slender neck.

He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. After seeing me, he stared at me with a pair of black eyes without saying a word.

"What happened?" I asked blankly, "Didn't you ask me to come to an emergency meeting?"

He snorted coldly, looked away, and said in a gloomy voice: "I heard that you went to your dad's birthday party?"

That's it?

Even if he is dissatisfied with the Ruan family using his name to cheat, there is no need to ask me to come to the company for a meeting in the middle of the night!

I was speechless, but I was wrong, so I could only respond: "Well, it was only after I went to the scene that I found out their true intentions."

"Stupid." Li Yunzhou uttered two words coldly.

I pursed my lips: "Have you finished scolding Mr. Li? After scolding, I will go back to sleep."

"Report to work." He stared at me and suddenly gave the order lightly.

I was stunned: "What?"

Li Yunzhou narrowed his dark eyes: "As the vice president of the company, don't you have any work that you need to report to me?"

"Now?"

"Do you have any comments?" He frowned slightly.

I finally understood that he actually wanted to torture me by calling me to a meeting in the middle of the night.

Who made me his subordinate?

I didn't dare to have any opinions, so I could only suppress the dissatisfaction and sleepiness in my heart and do as I was told.

"Okay, can I borrow your computer?" I asked him through gritted teeth.

Li Yunzhou nodded, I opened his laptop, entered the mailbox, downloaded the work report, and then reported to him word by word.

I don’t know if he really had nothing to do, but Li Yunzhou actually listened very seriously.

He sat down on the leather sofa nearby and stared at me for two hours.

By the time the report was finished, it was already one o'clock in the morning.

My mouth was dry as I spoke, my upper and lower eyelids were fighting desperately, and I stood up extremely exhausted: "Mr. Li, I've finished my report."

"good."

In exchange for his two words of understatement.

I yawned and felt like I could fall asleep standing up: "Can I go?"

"Together." He walked out of the door first with his long legs.

I followed closely behind and entered the elevator with him.

I leaned against the elevator car, staring blankly at the numbers counting down on the screen.

"boom!"

Suddenly there was a loud noise, the numbers on the display disappeared, and the lights in the elevator went out instantly.

There was a power outage!

I shivered instinctively and couldn't help but think of the experience of being trapped in the darkroom.

The next second, Li Yunzhou turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone and pressed the emergency call button, but there was no response at all.

"Does your mobile phone have a signal?" He looked at his mobile phone and asked me with a frown.

I quickly took out my phone, then shook my head in despair, my lips began to get dry, and I couldn't even utter a word.

My legs were a little weak and goosebumps appeared all over my body.

I slid down the ladder car and sat on the ground, curled up into a ball, and began to tremble non-stop.

"What's wrong with you?" Li Yunzhou noticed something was wrong with me and walked towards me.

I shook my head, but I was still speechless. In my mind, I uncontrollably recalled the cold, desperate and suffocating feeling in the darkroom.

"Claustrophobia." A term came out of Li Yunzhou's mouth. He knelt down and hugged me gently, calling me in a deep voice, "Ruan Shi, listen to me. Close your eyes now and don't think about anything.

Don’t worry either.”

I closed my eyes and heard Li Yunzhou continue: "The control room is manned 24 hours a day. The security guards should have discovered the elevator malfunction by now. They will come to rescue us soon. Don't be afraid."

I understand everything he said, but I just can't control myself at all!

I was shaking harder and harder, my breathing became rapid, and a desperate feeling of suffocation swept over me.

I opened my eyes suddenly.

Just when I couldn't help but scratch my neck with my hands, Li Yunzhou's big hand held the back of my head, lowered his head and kissed me.

My eyes widened, and after a few seconds of panic, I unexpectedly calmed down.

The trembling of my body stopped, and I looked into his pair of dark starry eyes, my consciousness gradually becoming clearer.

"Ding!" The elevator door opened.

A call has come.

The lights in the elevator came on again, and Li Yunzhou and I were blinded by the bright light and closed our eyes at the same time.

At the same time, two voices sounded outside the door one after another——

"Mr. Li, are you okay?"

"Ah, this... is disturbing!"

Realizing that Li Yunzhou and I were still kissing each other, I pushed him away suddenly, and my face suddenly burned to the base of my ears.

This is too embarrassing!

Several security guards clearly wanted to continue watching, but due to the identities of Li Yunzhou and me, they did not dare to look directly at us blatantly. They could only step aside and peek at us with their peripheral vision.

"Thank you for saving me just now. I'm going home first." I said like a mosquito, got up and left the office building quickly.

On the way home, I felt particularly sober.

When I got home and lay on the bed, I didn't fall asleep immediately. My mind was filled with what just happened.

It is clear that Li Yunzhou and I have divorced, but the moment he kisses me, my heart beats faster.

But what does this mean?

He kissed me to save me, and it was because of my claustrophobia that I fell in love with him again.

My mind was so messed up that I forced myself to empty my mind and fell asleep without realizing it.

On Monday morning, I was getting ready to go to work.

The doorbell rang. As I opened the door, I asked, "Who is it?"

"Madam, it's me." The voice sounded familiar.

I opened the door and saw that the person standing outside turned out to be Butler Chen.

Butler Chen saluted me and said to me respectfully: "Young madam, the old man invites you to meet me at my old house."

"Does Butler Chen know what grandpa wants to do with me?" I was very surprised and asked subconsciously.

If Mr. Li has something to ask me for, he can call me directly. Why would he send Butler Chen to pick me up in person?
