Life 1984

Lin Xin was so frightened that she hugged Li Yunhai and shouted in horror: "Brother-in-law, we won't fall and die, right?"

Li Yunhai also didn't expect that such a high-end imported elevator would break down.

He supported Lin Xin and said, "Don't panic. The elevator is equipped with safety gear, speed limiter, safety sudden descent device and hydraulic buffer. It will definitely not fall. There is electricity on the panel. It should be a mechanical failure, not electricity. Fault."

"Brother-in-law, what should we do?" Seeing that he spoke so firmly, Lin Xin was no longer so afraid. She held his arm and pressed close to him. It was likely that they would die together. The fearlessness of the same cave.

Li Yunhai tried all the buttons again, including the intercom button, which also failed.

There must be no cell phone signal.

The two of them slapped the elevator door, hoping someone outside would hear them.

It just so happens that this is Li Yunhai's special elevator.

This elevator goes directly to the office floor, with no stopping floors in between!
People don’t often pass by outside the elevator!
Li Yunhai and the others were trapped between the 13th and 14th floors.

No one passes by here anymore!
"Brother-in-law, what should I do?" Lin Xin became nervous.

Li Yunhai took a deep breath, took Lin Xin's hand, walked to the glass curtain wall of the sightseeing elevator, sat down against the wall, and said with a smile: "I'm trapped anyway, let's take a look at the scenery!"

There is a ventilation facility inside the elevator, so even if the elevator stops, the power is not cut off, so the air inside the elevator will continue to circulate to prevent suffocation.

"Brother-in-law, do you still want to see the scenery?" Lin Xin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Li Yunhai sat on the floor, looked outside leisurely, and said: "Speaking of it, I haven't been so free for a long time. I don't have to worry about anything, and I don't have to answer any calls. In a quiet place, I can be free and quiet, not to mention there are I can see such beautiful city scenery, and have a beautiful woman like you accompany me.”

"Brother-in-law! You are really good at joking!" After hearing what he said, Lin Xin slowly calmed down and said, "Speaking of which, like you, I haven't seen the scenery for a long time. I have been busy these years. It seems like I’m busy with a lot of things, but I don’t seem to have gotten anything. I don’t have a boyfriend, I don’t have a family, I don’t have a career.”

"So, God has given us a time and space for self-reflection. How good is this?" Li Yunhai said, "Stop talking. We don't have water to drink. We don't know when they will find us."

"Ah? I have a bottle of water." Lin Xin opened her bag with a smile, took out a thermos cup, and said with a smile, "Look! I always bring my own water bottle to work."

"Why don't you have a water bottle in the office?"

"I'm used to using a kettle! I used this kettle when I was in school. You see, the paint on it is all worn out by me."

"Well, you are a good and thrifty woman."

"Brother-in-law, would you like some water?"

"Keep it for now! We are in the desert now, so we must save the water for last."

"Oh! What if they don't notice we're missing for a whole day?"

"Then your sister will call the police. The police will come to us. There must be one or two smart people who will think that we are trapped in the elevator, right?"

"What if there is no such smart person?"

"When you said this, I remembered a joke."

"What a joke, tell me quickly. I'm so bored and want to hear your jokes."

"An expert went to the countryside and saw the donkeys wearing bells around their necks. He asked the farmers why they put this bell on the donkeys. The farmers replied that the bells would ring whenever the donkeys moved around. We didn't care whether we were there or not. If you hear the sound next to it, you will know that it is working, so you are not afraid of it being lazy. Experts say that if the donkey stands still and shakes its head, the bell will keep ringing. Farmers said that in our countryside. There are no donkeys as smart as you!”

"Hehe! Interesting! Say one more thing." Lin Xin leaned forward and back with laughter, leaned on Li Yunhai, and begged.

Li Yunhai said: "I can't say anything anymore, I'm really thirsty. We can finish the water you have in one gulp."

The time was relatively easy at the beginning, always hoping that someone would find them soon and come to rescue them.

But the terrible thing is that no one came at all!

Li Yunhai was the boss, and no one kept track of his attendance. Lin Xin was his secretary. If the two of them didn't come to work together, they might have gone to the factory, or they might have gone out to do errands.

No one will have any doubts.

Under the management of Li Yunhai, Sihai Group is like a sophisticated machine. Every component can operate freely, and they can be connected and coordinated. Even if the boss is not around, this machine can still operate without problems. .

In this way, Li Yunhai's sense of presence becomes lower.

In his absence, everyone performs their duties. If there is any undecided matter, go to Lin Zhi to resolve it.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Sure enough, the hardest thing to endure is thirst.

Loneliness is okay, at least two people are together.

But even without talking, the human body will continue to consume nutrients and water.

Li Yunhai and Lin Xin were so thirsty that their lips split, so they each took a sip of water.

The kettle is indeed a bit small, only 380 ml, and Li Yunhai can drink it in one gulp.

Lin Xin handed the kettle to his mouth and said, "Brother-in-law, drink some more, I'm not thirsty."

Li Yunhai shook his head gently: "When a person is in a desperate situation, he must leave water to give himself hope."

Lin Xin gradually felt the sadness and said with a choked voice: "Brother-in-law, we won't die here, right? Why haven't they come to us yet? The two living people are gone, aren't they worried?"

Li Yunhai was tired of looking at the scenery outside the window, so he simply lay down and said, "Get some sleep! Sleep is the least energy-consuming. Maybe when we wake up, they will come to save us?"

"Brother-in-law, can you sleep? Aren't you afraid that something unexpected might happen suddenly while we are asleep?"

"That's better. Being able to die in your sleep is the blessing of life."

"Brother-in-law, you are a billionaire and your life is precious. How can you be so open-minded?"

"Life is a process. Don't think about the future. The future is elusive. Just live in the present. Since I came to this world, I have never wanted to go back alive."

"Huh? It seems to make sense!"

Lin Xin also lay beside him and groaned: "Brother-in-law, the floor is a bit icey."

"Or you can lean against the glass."

"No, I'm afraid. I'll lie on your heart, hehe, so you won't be afraid of the ice."

"Uh--"

Lin Xin really didn't shy away from suspicion, lying on his chest and listening to his heartbeat.

"Brother-in-law, I'm thirsty again."

"You drink some water."

"You can't drink it. Save the last sip to give us some hope."

"Then just bear with it!"

"I read an article in Youth Digest, which said that when two people bang, a lot of moisture can be produced. Is that true? You and my sister have tried it. Did it produce any moisture?"

"Ah?" Li Yunhai was shocked by her harsh words.

"Is it true? That article said it was scientifically tested!"

"There are too many pseudosciences nowadays, and everything has to be disguised as science to deceive people."

"Just like the experts you just mentioned?"

"Haha! Yes!"

Lin Xin whispered: "Brother-in-law, I haven't had a boyfriend yet."

Li Yunhai exclaimed: "I know! You told me."

Lin Xin's breathing became faster.

"Brother-in-law, I want to do a scientific experiment."

"How to conduct experiments here?"

"It's the experiment I just mentioned, a life-saving experiment in critical moments, when you're thirsty to death."

"No!" Li Yunhai patted her face gently, "There is also a mouthful of water for you to drink. I won't be thirsty when I fall asleep."

Lin Xin opened the kettle, took a sip of water, and suddenly came forward and gave the water to Li Yunhai to drink again.

Li Yunhai was sleeping with his eyes closed and couldn't help but let out an ooh.

At this time, there seemed to be the sound of someone speaking outside.

"There's someone!" Li Yunhai stood up, slapped the elevator door hard, and shouted at the same time, "Who is outside? Is there anyone?"

Outside is the security corridor.

It turned out that it was already lunch time.

Some employees bring their own lunch boxes and eat in the corridor outside.

"Hey, did you hear it? Someone seems to be shouting!" A female employee with short hair tilted her ears and listened.

"Where is there? Are you hallucinating? Others have already got off work!" Another female employee with long hair laughed. "There really is someone! Listen!" Short Hair heard someone shouting again, "It seems to be calling for help!"

"Who would call for help? Is someone watching a movie?" The man with long hair laughed.

Lin Xin also heard people talking outside, so she and Li Yunhai patted the elevator door and shouted for help.

The girl's voice is sharper, and her voice is more penetrating than Li Yunhai's.

This time, people outside finally heard.

"Someone is really shouting for help! Listen, it's coming from behind this wall! How strange! Isn't there a street outside this wall? The floor is so high, how can we hear the shouting outside?"

"Oh my god, is there a ghost? A ghost living in the wall?" A fat female employee exclaimed, "I heard that when a building like this is built, people will die inside. What else? What kind of pile is that?"

"Don't talk nonsense! It's scary!" The long-haired man said, "How could there be a ghost in broad daylight? There must be someone. Listen, it came from between the two floors."

"Oh, no one fell down the building and got stuck on the wall outside, right?" The short-haired man was really powerful and said, "Hurry up and call the security guard! Don't really kill someone!"

Li Yunhai shouted: "Hey, do you hear me? I am Li Yunhai! I am the boss of Sihai Group, Li Yunhai!"

"Did you hear it? Someone seems to be calling Li Yunhai. Isn't that the name of our boss? It seems that someone is really trapped outside, or an employee of our company!" Short-haired shouted, "Hurry up and call someone over!" "

This time everyone heard it clearly, it was indeed a human cry.

Although the sound came from the elevator and passed through a wall, becoming very weak and somewhat distorted, it was clearly the sound of someone shouting.

Everyone ran back to their work stations and called building security.

The security guard came to the floor, listened carefully, and then looked at the location where the sound came from. He was shocked: "Isn't this where the chairman's private elevator is? Isn't Mr. Li trapped in it?"

They pulled their necks and shouted: "Mr. Li! Mr. Li! Is it you?"

"Yes! I am Li Yunhai!" Li Yunhai shouted until his throat became hoarse.

The security guards were sure that Mr. Li was trapped. They were horrified and quickly called their superiors to report.

After a while, Zhuang Yong, Ding Qiang and others rushed over.

Lin Zhi and Shen Xiulan had just returned home. When they heard that Li Yunhai was trapped, they were so shocked that they didn't bother to eat, so they returned to the company.

For a time, dozens of senior leaders of the company gathered on the floor.

Lin Zhi was so anxious that she was running around: "I said why can't I contact him! I went out early in the morning, and as soon as I went out, the person disappeared. It turned out that he was trapped in here! Oh, will everyone be okay? What are you still doing? ? Please find a way to save Mr. Li!"

Shen Xiulan took Lin Zhi's hand and said, "Don't worry, the logistics department has sent elevator maintenance workers to check it. Yunhai will be fine."

Lin Zhi hummed, calmed down a bit, held Shen Xiulan's hand, and said, "If anything happens to the sea of ​​clouds, I don't want to live anymore!"

Shen Xiulan said: "Nonsense! Yunhai will live a long life, nothing will happen to him. Are you willing to give up your three children?"

Lin Zhi said: "Xiulan, to be honest, I have never regarded you as an outsider. One day, I will entrust your three children to you. I know that you will treat them well and will not care whether they live or die. "

"Oh, stop talking! It makes me want to cry." Shen Xiulan said, "We are all living well, can't we?"

Lin Zhi hummed: "Xiulan, do you still blame me?"

"What's your fault?"

"Blame me for taking away the sea of ​​clouds."

"If it's really mine, no one can take it away. If it can be taken away, it means it's not mine."

"Do you really think so?"

"Yeah! So don't say these words anymore."

After inspection by technical workers, it was found that the elevator had a mechanical fault and it would take several hours to completely repair it.

Lin Zhi instructed them: "Find a way to rescue Mr. Li first! If the elevator is useless, it will be useless!"

The workers discussed it and decided to try using a manual winch to lower the elevator first.

After their efforts, the elevator was equipped with a manual winch and slowly slid down.

Lin Xin was so frightened that she hugged Li Yunhai tightly.

Although he was saved, the jumping elevator was terrifying.

Li Yunhai hugged her tightly, and the two of them squatted in the corner, motionless.

The elevator finally reached the bottom.

The elevator door was opened.

Lin Zhi and others rushed in.

"Yunhai!" Lin Zhi hugged Li Yunhai, held his face, and said, "I've made you suffer!"

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "It's okay, I just chatted with Miss Lin Xin about ideals and life inside. We learned a lot."

Lin Zhi chuckled and said, "You can still laugh!"

Lin Xin pouted beside her and said, "Sister, if you don't hug me, I thought I would never see you again!"

Lin Zhi let go of Li Yunhai, hugged her sister, and said, "Okay, it's okay! Come out quickly!"

Shen Xiulan looked at Li Yunhai with tears in her eyes.

Li Yunhai smiled gently and opened his arms: "Xiulan, let's hug one too! Let's meet again after the disaster!"

Shen Xiulan couldn't bear it anymore, threw herself into his arms and cried loudly.

She was very strong when Li Yunhai was trapped inside just now, but now she cried when she saw him again.

Li Yunhai gently stroked her back and said comfortingly: "Okay, it's okay!"

"I, I'm scared!" Shen Xiulan was comforting Lin Zhi just now, but now she was extremely scared.

If something happened to Li Yunhai today, it would really be a funeral with no time to say goodbye!
Li Yunhai felt mixed emotions when he thought about what happened in his previous life.

"Hello, Mr. Li!" The logistics staff came forward and said, "It's our fault. We didn't find out in time that the elevator was out of order. Let's do a review!"

Lin Zhi said solemnly: "What did you do? How often is this elevator tested? How could it malfunction?"

"Mr. Lin, the elevator is inspected every three months. The last inspection was two months ago. There was no problem at that time."

"No problem? Why did it malfunction? If something happens to Mr. Li, I can't afford to kill you all to compensate!"

"Yes, yes, it's our fault. We will definitely strengthen maintenance work in the future." The logistics people did not dare to talk back, and they were all silent.

After all, something happened to the boss. What does it matter if he gets scolded by the boss’s wife?
Li Yunhai said: "Check carefully to find out where and how the elevator malfunctioned!"

Lin Zhi said: "Why repair it? This elevator broke down once, and it may break down again in the future. Just replace it with a new one! I know you are trying to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, but you can't save this money!"

Li Yunhai said: "Okay, it's up to you."

Lin Zhi said: "Buy the best and the most expensive! You can't save money!"

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "Okay!"

Lin Zhi caressed her heart and said: "If you ask me, low-rise buildings are more reliable. This kind of high-rise building looks good but is really scary to live in! In life, you are not afraid of 10,000, just in case. Once something happens, there will be no future." "

Li Yunhai said: "Then we won't stop eating because of choking. Let's move to the first floor and work, right?"

Lin Zhi said: "Why not? I feel quite at ease. This building is too high. When we are in mid-air, we can't reach the sky or the ground. Alas!"

Li Yunhai comforted her a few words, and then Lin Zhi slowly calmed down.

Lin Zhi invited Lin Xin and Shen Xiulan to her home for dinner.

Lin Xin talked to them about the thrilling scene in the elevator just now, and said, "Fortunately, my brother-in-law is here. If I were alone, I would have been scared to death before you guys came to save me!"

Lin Zhi said: "Come on, eat some chicken drumsticks to calm down."

Lin Xin looked at Li Yunhai with a smile.

Li Yunhai glared at her.

Lin Xin chuckled and said, "Brother-in-law, the scientific experiment we just did in the elevator was quite accurate, don't you think?"

Li Yunhai coughed lightly and said sternly: "Don't talk nonsense!"

Shen Xiulan asked curiously: "What scientific experiments did you do in the elevator?"

Li Yunhai stretched out his foot and kicked Lin Xin under the table.

Lin Xin chuckled and said, "Hey, it's just a very scientific experiment!"

Lin Zhi suddenly asked: "You have been trapped for so long, are you thirsty? How did you spend it?"

Li Yunhai and Lin Xin looked at each other. (End of chapter)
