Chapter 432: Darkness
The warning light in the elevator flashed immediately.
Shrouded them in a faint and strange red light.
Su Qian didn't and couldn't move, at least not now.
A strange mixture of panic and satisfaction left her unable to move.
She leaned into his arms, her arms instinctively grabbing his waist while his arms wrapped around her.
This pose is ambiguous at other times.
But now, in the darkness of the environment, his heat, and his masculine aura, evoked a strong memory of everything that had gone before.
Her heart was racing, but the will commanded her to react.
Su Qian struggled to stand up.
For a few seconds, he increased the strength of his arms, as if to force her closer to him, and she must not leave.
His eyes darkened in the half-lit red light, and even so, she could still see the determination and intense feeling in his eyes.
Li Peinan didn't want to let go, at least not now.
For the first time in half a year, he was able to relieve his desire for the softness of this female body, and he remembered how he felt when he carried Su Qian to the hospital.
Now you can relive old dreams, even if it's just for a minute.
She obediently gave up the struggle, much to his satisfaction.
Su Qian leaned on her strong embrace, and even wanted to rest her head on his shoulder! It was closest to her heart, and she would hear the voice she remembered.
Calm, slow, and warm and safe.
But reason pulled her back.
She pushed him away hard, very firmly, without hesitation.
Though she could sense his reluctance, he let go of her at once, and stood up nimbly and forcefully, grabbed her arm, and pulled her up without much effort.
"Are you alright? Did it hurt anywhere? ”
She smoothed her skirt.
Today it seems that things are not going well.
"No, what about you?"
"I'm fine!"
He replied in a low voice, then quickly picked up the emergency microphone on the elevator wall and pressed the alarm device connected to the elevator maintenance personnel.
She waited, but he didn't speak.
Su Qian was nervous.
This is not the case.
Li Peinan frowned darkly, and finally fell back into the microphone.
"No one answered, and the maintenance team must have gone home early like everyone else."
She looked at the phone, there were other buttons besides a panic button, maybe they could call for help.
Li Peinan noticed her gaze, shook his head, and looked up.
"You didn't notice the air conditioning was off."
He stretched out his hand to probe, but no cold air blew out of the vent.
Because of his stature, he was closer there.
"There must be a power outage."
Su Qian turned her attention to the door.
This small space has begun to suffocate.
It's July.
She hated the feeling, the stuffiness would make people suffocate from dehydration in the elevator.
It is not possible that anyone will come to their rescue yet.
What kind of luck is this?
Su Qian wanted to keep herself from panicking.
But she couldn't.
"Maybe the electricity will come in a moment."
The voice is more like confirmation, but deep down it is also helpless.
"There's going to be a storm tonight, maybe it's already happening now, and the situation in front of us should be tripping. If it was a power outage, it would take hours to fix.
We have to get out of here. The batteries for the warning lights will run out quickly, and besides, the temperature here will soon rise, and we will not have water and enough oxygen. ”
As he spoke, his strong fingers were struggling to pull the elevator door open inch by inch.
Su Qian didn't know if Li Peinan could easily open the door, she tried to keep herself from trembling, and joined him in action.
She couldn't allow herself to stand quietly, that would make her panic worse.
It will also make her feel like she is worthless.
They are stuck right in the middle of the upper and lower floors, and the doors on the lower floors are up to one meter from the elevator.
She helped him pull the door open hard.
Before she could speak, he crouched down and slid off the elevator and downstairs.
It's really agile.
Su Qian was a little envious.
But more often than not, it's the loneliness of being left behind.
He turned and held out his hands to her.
"You jump down gently, I'll catch you."
She didn't speak, a little worried in her heart.
This height is not a problem! But I was still afraid.
"Okay!"
It was after the first meeting, and she answered him so meekly.
She took a deep breath and threw down the leather bag in her hand and the high heels on her feet.
Then take a deep breath and meet those arms.
His thick eyebrows raised high, and she stooped down.
"I miss it! It's as far away as a lifetime! “
He hugged her and muttered under his breath.
"Let go of me!"
Su Qian's face flushed in the dark, damn hug, damn hug.
Now this man can do nonsense.
It's just that she hasn't had the ability to lose her temper yet.
Always worry about him leaving himself alone.
The current relationship suddenly broke the previous pattern between them.
Time seems to have gone back to the past.
Li Peinan stabilized her body, and then let go of her.
Su Qian was a little disappointed, leaving that warm embrace, and seemed to be in a bad mood.
Li Peinan turned around and walked towards the stairs and made an intimate hint, but Su Qian did not jump like thunder, which was already the best phenomenon.
That's a good start.
Li Peinan felt that there was nothing wrong with being trapped in the elevator.
If it weren't for the risk of hypoxia and suffocation, he would have been reluctant to leave.
Su Qian followed behind him, not leaving an inch.
Li Peinan pushed open the door of the stairwell and suddenly stopped moving.
The stairwell is pitch black because it is located in the middle of the building and there are no windows either.
The black is unbearable horror.
Just now in the hallway, you can lean against an office with a window, and a faint light shines through.
But the stairwell was as dark as hell.
As soon as you walk in, it's like walking into a black well, and a sudden burst of primal instinct can make people feel retreated.
"Come, come to the front, I'll be behind you, and it will be fine! Trust me, I won't leave you a single step. ”
He turned close to her and pulled her in front of him.
Because of the proximity of this distance, she could easily feel the breath of his breath fluttering, and even feel his chest rise and fall with his breathing,
"I've only heard of claustrophobia before. Now I understand and feel like I can get this disease at any time. ”
Su Qian gritted her teeth and faced the darkness, every step seemed like torment.
"Absolutely impossible! You are so brave and strong, how can you possibly win! Take out your ability to clean up with me, any claustrophobia will shy away from you. ”
He smiled.
"We'll be out soon. At the moment we should be on the third floor, so walk up four short flights of stairs to get out. I will always be with you, you don't need to worry. “
Now they seem to have no choice.
Su Qian shrugged her shoulders and took a deep breath, as if she was about to die.
With a bang, the door closed.
Blocking the only glimmer of light.
They are immersed in darkness.
She clutches the stair railing! Take the first step down.
It felt like it was about to be swallowed up by a behemoth.
Su Qian stumbled in a panic and almost fell.
In a second, he was up to him, grabbing the handrail with one hand behind her back, and holding her upper arm with the other.
The power pulled her back to her familiar, muscular body.
"Hold on, I'm here."
With the warmth he came, she felt the suffocating darkness, as if she had also surrendered to his strength.
"I'm not going to fall again."
She couldn't control the tremors in her voice.
wants to break free from Li Peinan's big hand.
"It's not weird."
He calmly said that he would never let go again.
