"Is there anyone inside?" The voice came again.
"Yes, two."
"Oh, are you alright?"
"I'm fine."
"Alright, stand still and don't move. We'll pry the door open immediately to rescue you all."
"Alright." Ling Qiao turned around and looked at Shu with a sincere expression. "See, I really didn't stop the elevator on purpose. It really was broken."
ShuShu smiled. "Yes, yes. I don't know which boss it is. He only knows how to make money and he doesn't know how to maintain his hardware and equipment well. What a black-hearted man."
"…" Ling Qiao reached out and pinched her face. "I'll take care of you after I get out of here."
The paramedics quickly opened the elevator door with a crowbar. The elevator stopped between the fourth and fifth floors. Ling Qiao took a horse stance and crossed his arms. "Step on my hands, I'll help you up."
Shu Shu nodded. She stepped on his hand and headed up. Someone from above was also supporting her. Two emergency medical workers were working together to pull her up.
She crouched on the floor and looked back at him, worried. "How do you get up here?"
Ling Qiao smiled. "That's simple." He took a few steps back, leapt for life with a run, grabbed the floor of the fifth floor in a single leap, and then, with a stomp on the handrail of the elevator, climbed up nimbly, without any help at all.
There were a lot of people up there. The hotel's manager had come over, but when he saw that the person who was trapped was actually the CEO, he quickly apologized, "CEO Ling, I'm really sorry."
The manager of the hotel was a middle-aged Mediterranean man who had dedicated most of his life to the hotel. He had encountered an elevator accident on his first day in the manager's position and had even sleepy the CEO.
However, Ling Qiao smiled and patted the manager's shoulder, saying, "Today's elevator is bad at the right time, it's fortunate that I caught it." Seeing the stunned expression on the manager's face, Ling Qiao quickly added, "If the other guests meet it, won't they have to complain?"
The manager wiped away his sweat. His hands were truly wet. "Yes. CEO, please rest assured. The elevator will definitely be repaired and well maintained."
"En!" Ling Qiao easily pulled Shu Shu along as the two of them quickly slipped away. There were so many people talking, yet the rumors were unshakable.
Ling Qiao drove the car all the way to the Green Court. The more they were outside, the easier it was for them to find each other. It would be better to find a quiet and safe place where the two of them could talk.
The receptionist at the Green Court greeted Ling Qiao politely.
Ling Qiao was in a great mood. He tossed the car keys to the receptionist and even gave him a tip, "Stop my car properly. This is for you."
"Thank you, CEO Ling."
"I asked him to borrow my bicycle from him. I said that I would borrow his bicycle to chase the girls. He told me that he would definitely succeed because he also used that bicycle to catch up with his current girlfriend."
"Hur hur, so that bicycle is also a necessary means of transportation for picking up girls."
"Isn't it so? It's even more useful than my Bentley."
Walking to the door, Ling Qiao held the card as he reminded him, "Hey, we agreed that we were just going to sit here and drink tea. Don't do anything rash again."
Ling Qiao smiled, "Got it. Do you think that the only thing I, a bug, want to do is to play with you?" "Then you are underestimating me. I am also a person with hidden meaning."
"Tsk, come on you. I can't tell what it is, but my blabbermouth skills have become very powerful."
He opened the door and entered. Everything was the same as before. Green plants could be seen everywhere, filling the room with a refreshing feeling. The scenery in front of the French windows was still beautiful. Because it was noon, the seaside park was not very lively, but there were still couples sitting together eating lunch.
They could tell at a glance that he was a graduate with a clean smile on his childish face. No matter how busy and tiring his work was, the girls would prepare lunch in advance and eat with the boys at noon. They might not have eaten the best, but the smiles on their faces were the easiest and sweetest.
"In the blink of an eye, a year has passed. At this time last year, I was busy working at both the hospital and school. Oh, no, I was also busy working at a television station."
Ling Qiao felt his heart ache. How helpless and helpless he would have been at that time. He went to the window and hugged her from behind. He wanted to turn back time, wanted to go back to the moment they had met, so he would not quarrel with her. He wanted to know her and protect her.
"I will definitely not let you suffer in the future."
Shu Shu reached for his neck, touching his face. "Alright, you don't have to write a blank cheque."
"Definitely not." Ling Qiao vowed.
"Oh right, I've been thinking about something these past few days. Last time, you told me about Sister Zhang. I wanted to ask, did she really harm our child?"
Ling Qiao's expression and tone became heavy, "Yes, Aunt Zhang was an old servant of Li Changzhi's family and served the Li Family's parents for most of her life. Back then, the Li Family emigrated abroad, so she didn't do it." It was my carelessness that allowed her to approach us on the condition of treating her son's illness. In fact, I also ate an apple that day, and even had diarrhea when I was travelling, but I thought it was because I couldn't accept the situation, so I didn't have any doubts about her at all. "
"Later on, when something happened to you, when Sister Zhang was captured, she insisted on not revealing the mastermind's identity, insisting that she was careless. During this time, his son went to visit him, so the police found a way out. Sister Zhang's son had successfully performed a heart transplant operation and was recovering well. He knew why his mother died. "After Mrs. Zhang's death, I was afraid that Li Changzhi would harm her son, so I sent him to the Netherlands to continue recuperating. He told me the truth, and the police already have his records, but they've been keeping them as confidential documents."
"Li Changzhi's goal is extremely obvious, and everything is for Tang Siqing. I feel that he is simply a pervert who can actually go crazy by loving someone." And Tang Thirty-Six is not a good person either. Even though she knew what Li Changzhi thought of her, she still didn't let him go. She's too selfish, she thought that the whole world should revolve around her. "
"The most unfortunate thing is Deng Zijun, I've looked for him and also talked to him, it turns out that he has always been secretly in love with Tang Xiuqing, he said that he regretted it and didn't have the face to see us, I arranged for him to go to New Zealand's branch office, he went with his girlfriend. This is in return for all the hard work he has done for me. "
"As for finding a room in the hotel, there's also Zhu Yixiang and the weekly reporter Zhu. One of them is an expert in hype and the other one is a professional dog. The news is as good as it can get." "Zhu Yixiang is also a bastard, I shouldn't have banned him back then, I should have sent him straight to the prison, where he would have accepted bribes for corruption. Any one of these crimes is more than enough for him to bear, but there will be retribution for evil, and now that he has done so many more bad things, the punishment in the future will definitely be the most important."
"Now, all I have to do is wait for Grandma to get better. Mom and Dad and I need to communicate for a while, and then we can fight back."
ShuShu listened attentively. It turned out that during this month, Ling Qiao had investigated so many things, and the relaxed person was actually herself. However, she had a whole new level of respect for Tang Thirty-Six. Although she already knew that she was shrewd and scheming, she had always thought that she just loved Ling Qiao too much.
"In my opinion, Li Changzhi and Tang Yuanqing are a perfect match. Only they should be together."
Ling Qiao shrugged. "I only hope that we can be together forever. I don't care about other people's matters."
After a while, Ling Qiao's cell phone rang. When he saw that it was from home, he picked it up, "Hello, Mom, what's the matter?"
"What did you say?" Ling Qiao asked in surprise. He tightened his grip on Shu Shu's arm as he revealed an expression of disbelief, "Alright, got it. I'm going to the hospital to take a look."
After hanging up the phone, Shu Shu puzzledly and worriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Is there something wrong with Grandmother? "
Ling Qiao's eyes were immediately filled with pain as he stiffly shook his head, "It's not Grandmother …"
"That's …"
Ling Qiao stared blankly at the woman in front of him. Just now, he had said that he would protect her for a lifetime and give her a lifetime of happiness.
Shu Shu saw that he remained silent, yet her expression was ferocious. She became even more anxious. "What's going on?"
Ling Qiao pulled at his hair in frustration. He didn't dare to say that he had finally managed to restore some relations with Shu Shu. He didn't want to lose her again.
"What's wrong? Say it! " Shu asked, grabbing his arm. The more he said nothing, the more anxious she became.
"Tang Xiuqing …" Ling Qiao looked at her. How he wished that this news would be Tang Zuqing's smoke grenade again. "He's pregnant!"
Tang Qing was pregnant again? Tang Qingqing was pregnant again! ShuShu silently lowered her eyes, laughing lightly as she took a step back and leaned against the window. This news once again reminded her that Tang Beiqing was Ling Qiao's wife now, all right? She was pregnant, but she was pregnant once!
Ling Qiao was a little flustered as he continued to explain, "I swear that I haven't slept with her ever since we got married. We're just an unreal couple, Shu Shu, believe me."
Shu smiled. "I believe in you. But before you got married, didn't you already have a couple? Didn't you also get married this way?" "Being pregnant is great, Grandma always wants to hug her great-grandson, she will definitely be very happy."
She really shouldn't have held any hope. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. During the divorce, she should have completely let it go. She felt that the heavens were always toying with her. They were the real family of three, and she couldn't bear to break them apart. She didn't want to be a sinner, and even more so, she didn't want to follow in the footsteps of her mother.
Ling Qiao held her hand. It was a summer and her hand was terrifyingly cold. "Don't worry, I'll go check at the hospital."
Yesterday, she had a small car accident and was just scared. There was also a little skin wound, so she quickly went home to rest, but today the hospital called. The blood test showed that she was pregnant for a month, so it was recommended that she go to the hospital for a more detailed examination.
Everything was so unexpected and sudden.
