Zuo Zixian did not have the energy to care what Ling Yiheng was up to, as she felt her head grow dizzy and her body became colder and colder. She no longer had any strength left in her body.

Ling Yiheng looked at the delicate girl who was trembling and slowly closing her eyes. He frowned and pulled her over to him uneasily. He then held her waist and held her tightly in his arms.

"You are not allowed to sleep! You will lose your temperature when you fall asleep! " His sharp voice did indeed work, causing Zuo Zixian to immediately widen his eyes.

Lowering his eyes to look at her, he secretly felt relieved when he saw that her eyes were open.

Zuo Zixian raised his head and glared at him. He wanted to open his mouth to scold him, but he couldn't. He could only hatefully say, "It's all your fault."

He wrapped his good arm around her slender waist, looked up at the air conditioner, looked around, and then led her to the least covered area.

Zuo Zisheng did not resist, and followed him step by step.

Because the air conditioning was so strong, she could not help but sneeze from the cold. She was on the verge of losing all her strength.

It was currently summer, and both of them were wearing very thin clothing. There weren't any clothes that could help her withstand the cold.

The man's expression turned increasingly cold. He was extremely regretful about the fact that he had closed the door just now. If he had known earlier that the door to the wine cellar would be locked, he would not have let her in.

The temperature in the wine cellar dropped lower and lower, Zuo Zixian's face turned paler and his lips trembled.

She didn't even have the strength to scold Ling Yiheng. She could only collapse in his arms and lean against him in a corner.

In the end, when Zuo Zixian couldn't hold on any longer, the man could only carry her and sit on the ground with her. The surroundings became colder and colder, and even at the place farthest from the air conditioner, the cold was enough to make Zuo Zixian shiver.

Ling Yiheng looked at her body which was getting weaker and her lips which were starting to turn purple from the cold. He couldn't help but feel his heart tighten.

He didn't want anything to happen to her, didn't want to see her so vulnerable.

"Zuo Zixian, don't sleep!" When she closed her eyes again and was about to fall asleep, he hastened to remind her with a pat on her shoulder.

He had no time for the quiver in his heart that had never been frightened by her appearance.

"I... "I understand." Zuo Zixian replied, but his voice was abnormally weak, as though it was extremely strenuous for him to say even a single word.

Indeed, in this sort of situation, speaking even one more word would be exhausting.

Ling Yiheng frowned. If this carried on, she might really be unable to hold on and pass out. If he lost his temperature at that time, it would be very easy for something to happen.

He looked around, trying to find something that would help them get out.

But there was only a pile of red wine in the barrel, and nothing else.

"Wait here for me. I'll be right over." The man suddenly thought of something and stood up.

But at the same time, he took off his short-sleeved T-shirt and covered her with it.

Although the fabric of her short-sleeved sleeves was very thin, it was still better than letting her be frozen like this.

Zuozi looked at the half naked body in front of him in a daze, not knowing what to do.

She could feel her body growing colder and colder, and unconsciously, she wrapped herself tightly around his clothes.

Ling Yiheng didn't hesitate at all. He picked up a 20-liter barrel of wine and walked towards the door.

He lifted the keg and slammed it against the door, hoping to break it open.

Dong Dong Dong …" "Dong Dong Dong …" After a dozen consecutive collisions, there was only the sound of colliding, but the door didn't budge at all.

"Stop hitting me, it's useless." Zuo Ziwen looked at his movements and called out from behind.

She knew he was strong enough, but that didn't mean he could break the door open.

Ling Yiheng also knew that this wouldn't work, so he put down the wine barrel and returned to her side to sit down.

"Put your clothes on quickly, or you'll get sick." When she saw him coming, she quickly handed him his clothes.

Even though she was shivering from the cold, she didn't want anything to happen to him.

Ling Yiheng's heart quivered. Because of her actions, a warm feeling flowed through his heart. All the anger that had been directed at her seemed to vanish in an instant.

If he wasn't worried about her health, he felt that staying here might be a good idea.

At least, he could see her sincerity.

"You care about me." he said sharply, a smirk on his face.

Zuo Zizhen's mind shook, and he stuttered at these words, "I, I'm afraid you'll freeze to death, when that happens … "It's even more troublesome for me to be locked up here by myself …"

"Oh? "Is that so?" The man's black eyes slightly raised and his thin lips curled up. It was obvious that he didn't believe her words.

Zuo Zixian unconsciously shivered again, turned his face away, did not look at him, and did not have the extra strength to bicker with him.

At times like this, it was better for her to stay alive first. It was not wise to waste time and effort arguing with him.

The man seemed to realize this at once and quickly put on his only short sleeve before pulling her into his embrace.

Although his actions were very rough, when Zuo Zixian touched the warmth in his arms, he immediately gave up resisting.

She felt his broad chest and unconsciously shrank deeper into his chest. Immediately, she felt a constant stream of warmth coming from his thick chest, which made her feel much warmer.

When she thought of her actions, her frozen face immediately turned ashamed.

The man lowered his head to look at his coquettish body, which was still tightly cuddled in his embrace, before a smile broke out on his face.

"Ling, Ling Yiheng, aside from this time, have you ever been locked up like this?" Zuo Ziwang suddenly asked, his soft voice resounding in his ears, touching to the ear.

Although he didn't know why she would ask this question, he thought for a moment before answering, "Yes, I did. I was in my first year of high school."

"Ah?" Where were they locked in? Why are you locked up? " Zuo Zi Wu was immediately interested.

In fact, she was only afraid that she would fall asleep, so she thought of talking to him and didn't expect him to answer her. But hearing his unexpected answer, she couldn't help but want to know more.

The man couldn't help but laugh, feeling a little stunned. "Why are you interested in this?"

She raised her head, her bright eyes like cold stars shimmering for a moment, "Because it's hard for me to imagine that the omnipotent CEO Ling would also be locked up, unable to do anything about it."

After saying this, she was somewhat regretful because she didn't know if he would be angry because of this sentence. After all, he was like a ticking time bomb and she didn't know when he would explode.

However, his reaction this time was beyond her expectations.

Ling Yiheng's response to her question was to give her a big supercilious look. He looked at the two of them and asked, "Am I not now?"

"Mm, this is also because of you." Zuo Zixian replied matter-of-factly, and Ling Yiheng felt that there were a few black lines on his forehead.

On the other side, Rui Chen Yang and Tabolte were in the office for a long time and didn't see Zuo Zi Shi come back, so they were a little worried.

Tabolte went out to look around, but she didn't see Zuo Zixian, which made her even more baffled.

Rui Chen Yang tried to call her, but he heard her phone ring on the table.

With a grim expression, he turned around and walked out of the office.

He knew that Tabolte couldn't find Zuo Zixian in the wine cellar, so he went straight to the door.

Even when they found the opposite street, they didn't see the figures of Zuo Zixian and Ling Yiheng.

Rui Chen Yang's expression became even more serious, thinking back to Ling Yi Heng's black face, he couldn't be really going to do anything to Zuo Zi Wu, right?

Standing at the street corner, he looked around and saw Ling Yiheng's car in the parking lot not far from the wine cellar.

There was no one in the car, no one around.

When Tabolte met up with Rui Chenyang again, neither of them found Zuo Zixian or Ling Yiheng.

"Director Rui, maybe Director Ling wants to talk to Konnie. Since you've gone somewhere else, why don't you go back first? I'll wait here at the wine cellar. Konnie will definitely look for me when he returns." Tabolte knew that continuing without a goal was not an option, so she suggested this to Rui Chen Yang.

However, he was worried about Zuo Zizhen and couldn't leave right now, so he immediately rejected Tabolte's suggestion.

"I'll wait here as well." His expression did not change, and his tone was firm. Then, he walked inside.

After a moment of helplessness, Tabolte could only follow.

The two of them searched the wine cellar for a while, but to no avail.

Zuo Zixian felt that his body temperature was getting lower and lower, her strength was getting smaller and smaller, and she didn't even have the strength to cling onto Ling Yiheng's arms. She could only rely on his arms to support her and hold her in his arms to absorb his body temperature.

He did not tell her the story of when he was in his first year in high school, but he held her tightly. He did not dare to let go for even a moment, and used all his strength to warm her up and prevent her from fainting.

The two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding. They didn't say anything more, but their eyes were open as they waited for the time to pass.

They had never felt such a long period of time. It was obvious that a century had passed. However, when Ling Yiheng looked at the time, only one hour had passed.

There were still three hours left before the three o'clock deadline.

His clear eyes stared unblinkingly at her, watching her lips turn purple, and his heart sank.

No, I can't wait like this any longer. If she didn't do anything, she might really freeze to death!

He looked calm on the surface, but his heart was frantic and restless.

Suddenly, as if he had caught a glimpse of sunlight in the dark, he saw something shining silver in a corner.

Upon closer inspection, it was a sharp axe with a long handle.

Ling Yiheng didn't hesitate as he took off his clothes and placed it on Zuo Zixian's body. Then, he quickly ran over and picked up the axe.

The axe should be new and heavy.

Ling Yiheng pursed his lips, looking at the sturdy door in front of him, he raised his hand and fiercely smashed it down.
