Chapter 42 - Qin Ran trapped

Fu Jingyi did not feel at ease at all in her heart. She took a few deep breaths to adjust, then took out her phone to find the company's maintenance department's number and called the personnel on duty. She changed to her usual cold tone and ordered, "I'm Fu Jingyi, let me pass on Gu Lingfeng's orders. For some special reason, we need to temporarily suspend the use of the elevator.

Before she came, she already knew that Gu Lingfeng would be out for a meeting and wouldn't be in the company's main office. Only then would Fu Jingyi come here openly to find Qin Ran.

If no one found out that Qin Ran was trapped, it would take at most two hours before she would send someone to save him. At the same time, she would be a good person, letting Qin Ran feel that she owed him a favor.

Before Gu Lingfeng returned, these things could all be done.

The staff member was curious as to why Gu Lingfeng would suddenly stop the use of the elevator. However, why would the average person pretend to be Gu Lingfeng? They did not dare to disobey the boss's orders, and even though they were somewhat puzzled, they still acted quickly.

Fu Jingyi sat in the lobby and quickly saw a worker. She took the stop sign and placed it in front of the elevator.

"What's going on? How did the elevator suddenly stop working? " Qin Ran instinctively felt that this matter was a little strange, but he didn't have the time to think about it. He only thought that something had happened.

Qin Ran quickly took out his cell phone from his purse. Just as he was about to call for help, he realized that his cell phone could not be called even without the internet.

She could not stay here for long. There was less than 50% of her phone's battery left, and if she kept the flashlight on, she was afraid that it would only last for an hour. She had to think of a way to do it quickly.

She groped for the emergency button for the elevator and pressed it hard, but it was useless.

In the elevator control room, the staff quickly typed out a command on the keyboard. A minute later, the elevator officially shut down. After the elevator was closed, it would automatically descend to the first floor, making it easier to use once it was open.

After a dozen or so seconds of shock, the elevator stopped its descent. Qin Ran's head was covered with cold sweat, and his ears kept ringing. As the elevator suddenly descended, his phone dropped to the ground, and the lights disappeared.

When he came back to his senses, Qin Ran was fumbling on the floor for his phone. When he found it, he discovered that there was a crack on it. It seemed like he wouldn't be able to use it.

Qin Ran was sitting in a corner hugging himself, discouraged. He thought to himself that he was so unlucky. Now, he could only hope that someone would find out and save her.

Fu Jingyi was a little proud of herself. Hmph, Qin Ran, you are still too young to fight me. It was just closing the elevator. It wasn't enough to shut the dead. She would be taught a lesson and wouldn't get into any big trouble. It was perfect.

Just as she was feeling proud of her actions, she accidentally saw a familiar car stop in front of the company. Gu Lingfeng got out of the car and walked towards the company in large strides.

At this moment, Fu Jingyi started to panic. Sweat covered her clenched hands. If he found out that Qin Ran had been locked up in the elevator so quickly, she would have investigated the situation and found out that it was her calling the maintenance department.

Now, she didn't have time to think about anything else. Fu Jingyi stared closely at Gu Lingfeng's every move, and her lips turned white from biting it.

She noticed that someone had exchanged a few words with Gu Lingfeng. Gu Lingfeng nodded his head and looked at his watch, preparing to go upstairs and then walk towards the elevator. Fu Jingyi's heart seemed to leap into her throat as she tensed up.

When they were almost to the elevator, Gu Lingfeng turned around and walked towards his private elevator. When he saw Gu Lingfeng walking up the elevator, the stone in Fu Jingyi's heart fell.

Xiao Yan sighed in relief. This was really dangerous …

Gu Lingfeng arrived at his own floor. When he passed by the employee's office, he habitually glanced at Qin Ran's seat, wanting to ask her to make a cup of coffee to give him. However, she was never late, yet there was no one at her seat.

He was actually neglecting his duty during work hours. He really had to be taught a lesson. Gu Lingfeng frowned slightly. He took out his phone and made a call to Qin Ran. After a few beeps, a robotic female voice came, "Sorry, the number you dialed is not in the service area. Please try again later."

Gu Lingfeng confirmed that it was indeed not possible to connect from the service area. How could this be? Gu Lingfeng had a strange feeling in his heart, but he didn't know why, so he dialed Qin Ran's number again and walked into the office.

At the same time, when someone was using a humidifier on the second floor of the company, the power was not plugged in, causing the tissue in the trash can next to it to burn. Due to the remoteness of the corner and the fact that it was just past lunchtime, not many people came. At the beginning, no one noticed it until the entire trash can was set ablaze and the table beside it was set ablaze. Only then did someone react.

After discovering it, the staff wanted to put out the fire with the water in the water glass, but there were many combustible materials in the surroundings. The fire spread faster, and with the addition of the computer beside, the staff felt that things were not going well, and if they did not leave soon, it would explode.

After the fire alarm went off, many people started to evacuate quickly. Those present were all adults, and everyone knew that after such a thing happened, they had to avoid using the elevator as much as possible. Everyone went down through the emergency passage, so no one noticed Qin Ran in the elevator.

The pitiful Qin Ran still hadn't realized what had happened outside. She, who had been in the dark, finally started to feel scared. She couldn't help but call out for help.

"Is there anyone here!? Help me! I'm trapped in the elevator! "

Due to the fire, it was very noisy outside and no one noticed Qin Ran's shout. When Sun Xue ran to the elevator, she felt someone was shouting inside, but she didn't know it was Qin Ran inside. When she saw the yellow sign outside saying "Stop using it", she had a bad feeling and shouted to the evacuating crowd, "There seems to be someone inside! Come and take a look! "

A few male employees surrounded them and wanted to listen carefully, but the fire upstairs had already threatened the computer, causing a huge explosion. Even the first floor was shaking, and after a few people covered their ears to listen for the explosion, one of them pulled Sun Xue up and ran out, wanting to lead her out of here.

Sun Xue felt a bit uneasy as she looked back. However, she knew that she shouldn't stay here for too long, so she decided to leave and think of a way out.
