Chapter 1585: Danger Zone (2)

He rushed up the stairs and quickly reached the 19th floor. When he turned at the staircase, all he saw was the empty walkway in front of him. He hesitated for a moment before turning around to look at the staircase, however..

There were signs in front of the two elevator doors on the left that indicated that the elevator was under repair!

Qi Lei frowned. Just as he was about to rush towards the rooftop, something flashed across his mind—

He remembered that when he first came up, only one of the elevators was under repair, but now..

Qi lei seemed to have realized something. He quickly walked towards the two elevators and pressed the button. However, the elevator did not respond, while the other elevator made a ‘ding’ sound, and the door suddenly opened. Qi Lei rushed to the door almost immediately!

Sure enough, a hint of military green immediately entered his eyes. He did not have time to notice anything. He only noticed that Dongfang Liuyun’s face was a little pale. She wanted to rush out of the elevator, but unexpectedly—

“Be careful!”

‘Bang!’

A loud sound was heard. Qi Lei’s face instantly turned pale. Without thinking, he rushed in and wanted to reach out to pull her out.

“President Qi, be careful!”

“Stupid! ”

The black-clothed bodyguard’s voice and Dongfang Liuyun’s scolding were heard at almost the same time.

Dongfang Liuyun only felt a pair of long arms pull her over. Immediately after, there was a rumbling sound. The feeling of weightlessness was transmitted, and her entire body crashed into a broad and warm embrace.

“Hold tight.”

An urgent voice was heard. Qi Lei pressed all the buttons for the row of floors as fast as he could. His back was pressed against the wall of the elevator, and he held onto the handrail by the side with one hand!

The elevator fell rapidly. Dongfang Liuyun subconsciously held onto the handrail with one hand too. Although she was a little nervous and afraid, it was not to the extent of messing things up—

Her many years of life-and-death experiences had allowed her to experience quite a number of such life-and-death situations. Even in such a situation, she was still able to remain calm in the face of danger.

The man who was hugging her tightly with one hand did not make a sound. Instead, he quietly tightened his arms and hugged her tightly in his embrace.

The elevator fell for a moment before it suddenly became stuck. Dongfang Liuyun was also hugging his waist tightly with one hand. She looked around before she sighed in relief. After which, she lifted his head to look at him. She could see that although his handsome face was calm and solemn, there was also a trace of paleness within it. The dark light that was gathered within his starry eyes were a little deeper than usual. After watching him for a while, she suddenly laughed, “You are quite bold. If this elevator were to directly fly down, we would be reduced to a pile of meat paste.”

There was no fear in her hoarse voice. Instead, it seemed to be a little more gentle than usual. “Others will think that you are sacrificing yourself for me.”

“You wish. I’d be widowed at such a young age, it’s not nice to be a widowed husband.”

Qi Lei glanced at her and could not help but say coldly.

Dongfang Liuyun lowered her gaze, smiled quietly, and shrugged.

“What’s going on?”

Qi Lei asked as he signaled for her to take out her phone from his pocket to make a call.

“There’s no signal. I tried. When I came in, the elevator shook, and then I realized that there was a problem with the elevator. It was targeted at me.”

Dongfang Liuyun was rather calm.

“My father suddenly disappeared. When I remembered about the incident in Myanmar, I had to be careful. Maybe the other party set up a trap to me and my father suffer a little.”

Dongfang Liuyun raised his hand and rubbed the space between his brows, “All sorts of accidents have happened over the years, I’m used to it. It’s precisely because of this that I won’t let it go. I, Dongfang Liuyun, have never been a good person. The more it’s like this, the more I want to fight for what belongs to me. This is a responsibility and a duty.”

Qi Lei was stunned for a moment. The large hand around her waist tightened again. That kind of strength could almost break her waist—

He could understand Dongfang Liuyun’s feelings very well because he had once suffered just like that. Even if you did not want to fight for it, or take it, fate would not necessarily let you be. This was reality, the thing that one looked forward to and longed for, in fact, it had always been so simple, but...

She should have a deeper understanding of this feeling. She had always struggled in this predicament. That was why she was able to say those words calmly when he was down and out, perhaps it was because she had tacitly agreed to her own path from the start that she was able to remain calm?

At the thought of this, Qi Lei suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.

The elevator seemed to have stabilized and did not descend. Dongfang Liuyun wriggled out of his arms and glanced at him. Then, he leaned against the cold wall behind him and slowly sat down. Qi Lei looked down at her from above, then, he sat down next to her.

“I’ll accompany you.”

The two of them were silent for a long time. Qi Lei suddenly spoke in a low voice. When he said this, he did not look up at her. Instead, he quietly looked at the ground in front of him. On the clean floor, he could vaguely see the shadows of the two of them lying on the ground, one was tall and the other was short. Looking at them made him feel a sense of satisfaction and peace.

Dongfang Liuyun paused when she heard this. Then, she turned to look at him. Her gaze did not waver for a moment. After a while, she smiled faintly. “You are a very sincere partner, you are a comrade that is worthy of being trusted to have my back.”

“I will also be a very qualified husband,” Qi Lei glanced at her and quickly added.

“If I were to go back another 10 or 20 years, I wouldn’t mind being adopted into your family to be your bride first. However, this is fate. Fortunately, it doesn’t seem too late now. We will still get to know each other if it was meant to be. This is a good thing,” Dongfang Liuyun said calmly. After that, she looked up at the narrow space and took a deep breath. Then, she suddenly stood up and began to search the surroundings.

“Don’t worry. My people know that I’m inside. They’ll immediately arrange for someone to rush over to fix it. As long as your father is still in this hotel, we should be able to find him. However, I think that today’s incident is not so simple.”

Sensing the worry between her brows, Qi Lei softly consoled her.

Dongfang Liuyun silently observed the elevator for a while before replying, “The Dongfang Group has had quite a number of enemies with the outside world over the past few years. Even if we put that aside, dealing with internal conflict has been tiring enough for us.”
