Although the voice was as thin as a mosquito, it was still heard by the keen Cheng Jiayan.

Following the voice, he strode towards the window. Through the faint moonlight, he saw a thin and small figure squatting on the ground wearing a mask.

"Lu Yao!"

For some reason, Cheng Jiayan's heart tightened, and he ran towards her with big strides.

I saw the woman curled up weakly into a ball, her eyes were tightly closed, her face was so pale that she had no blood, and she looked extremely weak.

Seeing her like this, Cheng Jiayan actually felt nervous.

"Lu Yao, wake up, are you okay?"

It wasn't until he heard the shout that Lu Yao slowly opened his eyes.

In the dark, she couldn't see anyone or anything, but she could hear it. The person beside her was the most familiar voice, probably because she had been in the dark for too long, and suddenly saw a familiar person appear, and Lu Yao almost subconsciously hugged her. He said Cheng Jiayan, and blurted out.

"Brother Jiayan, I'm afraid!"

After speaking, he began to break down and cry.

Feeling the woman's warm body, Cheng Jiayan was stunned. Out of instinct, Cheng Jiayan subconsciously wanted to push her away.

But feeling that the woman in his arms was extremely thin and trembling slightly, Cheng Jiayan suddenly realized something, and said in a deep voice to the hotel manager who followed up.

"Why isn't the light on here? Hurry up and turn on the light!"

The manager didn't expect that the person Cheng Jiayan had been looking for for a long time was actually here. He was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he hurriedly explained.

"Mr. Cheng, the circuit in the conference room is being repaired tonight. I'll send someone to check the situation now."

After speaking, he hurriedly turned and left.

Cheng Jiayan didn't have time to take care of so much.

His thoughts were suddenly pulled back to a long time ago, when he and Lu Yao were still young, they could be called childhood sweethearts, and at that time, they used to be the best friends who talked about everything.

And he naturally knew that Lu Yao had a habit of turning on the lights when he went to bed at night.

Cheng Jiayan, who was young, ignorant and arrogant, used to laugh at Lu Yao for this matter.

"I'm so ashamed for you that you're afraid of sleeping alone at such a young age."

At that time, Xiao Lu Yao was so angry that he clenched his small fists and hit him several times.

It wasn't until later in high school that the school they were in had a power outage, and Cheng Jiayan saw Lu Yao's fear in the dark, and then he realized that it wasn't that she didn't dare to sleep alone, but was simply afraid of the dark.

Thinking about it this way, Cheng Jiayan did not push away the girl in his arms, but instead slowed down his voice and coaxed her gently.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

The familiar voice plunged Lu Yao into fond memories.

In a daze, she even had the illusion that she and Cheng Jiayan were still the same childhood sweethearts as before, and he was still the same as before, patiently comforting herself during a power outage.

Although he knew that this was probably just a dream of his own, Lu Yao just wanted to indulge in this dream and never wake up for the rest of his life.

Cheng Jiayan thought for a while, took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight, and illuminated Lu Yao with a weak light.

"Is this any better?"

Lu Yao leaned against his arms tremblingly, nodded with a pale face.

It was also at this time that Cheng Jiayan realized how ugly her face was.

I don't know how long he was locked up in the conference room. Lu Yao's whole body was icy cold, especially his hands, which were so cold that there was no warmth at all.

Seeing her trembling slightly, Cheng Jiayan guessed that Lu Yao was probably cold, and hugged her even harder.

"Hold on, I'll be calling soon!"

This sentence was exactly the same as what Cheng Jiayan said during the power outage in high school.

Without saying a word, Lu Yao just leaned into his arms quietly and obediently.

It wasn't until the hotel manager hurried over and ran aside to press the switch that the meeting room finally saw light.

But seeing the scene in front of them, everyone opened their eyes wide in surprise and covered their mouths in disbelief.

"President Cheng..."

Who can tell them how the famous Cheng Jiayan hugged a young intern in their company, and even comforted her patiently.

The hotel manager wondered if he was crazy.

Seeing the light for the first time, Lu Yao narrowed his eyes and adjusted for a while before finally being able to fully open them.

The appearance of the lights dispelled the nightmare in her heart, and gradually brought her back to consciousness.

"Cheng Jiayan?"

Looking at the person hugging him in front of him, Lu Yao was dumbfounded.

Especially when he realized that he was leaning against Cheng Jiayan's arms in such an intimate manner, Lu Yao couldn't believe it.

One must know that Cheng Jiayan hated her to the extreme, let alone give her a hug on weekdays, Cheng Jiayan was even unwilling to use the things he had touched.

"woke up?"

Cheng Jiayan quickly retracted his caring gaze, still with the same cold face as before.

He snorted coldly, let go of Lu Yao's hand, and looked down at her.

"I ran into the meeting room by myself and was locked up, Lu Yao, you are really going to cause me trouble!"

Cheng Jiayan's tone was full of disgust.

Hearing these words, the hope that had just risen in Lu Yao's heart was instantly blown away by his attitude.

Yes, he is no longer the brother Jiayan he used to be, so how could he treat himself with a gentle and patient attitude.

The consolation just now is probably nothing more than my imagination.

Lu Yao didn't feel wronged, but just defended himself softly.

"I came here for a meeting, but I don't know why the meeting room was locked, and then there was a power outage, and it happened that my mobile phone was also out of power. I'm sorry, Mr. Cheng, I didn't mean to bother you."

In fact, Lu Yao also felt a little strange, how could this incident alarm Cheng Jiayan?
Could it be that Director Chen hadn't seen him for a long time, so he reported it to Cheng Jiayan.

But it shouldn't either.

After all, with Cheng Ci's personality, there was no need to worry about himself so much.

He hates himself so much, he should wish that something really happened to him.

Lu Yao thought so sadly, but saw Cheng Jiayan frowned impatiently.

"Isn't that why you called me to save you?"

Lu Yao was stunned, and looked over with puzzled eyes.

But Cheng Jiayan quickly pulled out his phone, and there was indeed a call from him on it.

According to the length of the call, Lu Yao quickly recalled something.

It turned out that my call didn't go to Lu Jingchuan, but to Cheng Jiayan by accident.

In fact, Cheng Jiayan's phone number was not stored in her phone, but out of habit, Cheng Jiayan had always been a quick contact in her phone, and she didn't expect to call Cheng Jiayan instead when there was an accident this time.

Lu Yao lowered his head with a guilty conscience.

"I was just careless, don't think about it."
