The boundless darkness surrounded her, and she slammed on the door in fear, shouting loudly as she slapped: "Is there anyone outside? Is there anyone?"

She yelled a lot, until her voice became hoarse, but there was still no sound outside.

After all this tossing, she leaned feebly against the edge of the wall, panting.

Quiet, the darkness made her curl up into a ball, trembling, terrified.

When she was a child, she was bullied by the girls in her class, who tricked her into the dense forest, and then they ran away, leaving her alone in the woods, and she was very afraid of the dark.

The endless fear made her nerves tense, almost to the verge of collapse.

With such a weak will, I thought of a way to escape.

Suddenly, a light flashed in her head, and she hurriedly searched for her phone in her bag in the dark, but she couldn't find it after several times of searching, and then she remembered that she might have left her phone in the office with a lot of worries just now .

Suddenly, my heart was full of despair, and my face was ashen.

The boundless darkness made her feel like she was in hell, the intense fear tugged at her heart, and she screamed almost collapsed.

Her mind was full of being abandoned in the woods when she was a child, the shrill crows of crows around her, and the hideous trees like ghost faces, which made her run blindly in the woods in fear.

It was dark all around, loneliness, fear, helplessness, and confusion entangled her tightly. She kept running desperately, running, short of breath, and felt that there was a devil chasing after her. . . . . .The fearful encounters in her childhood invaded her body and mind like a demon, and tortured her cruelly.

She fell to the ground, her body twitched slightly, straight and stiff, and her mind was filled with images of panic and helplessness in her childhood.

"Help, help..." She murmured in pain, her body and mind seemed to be suffering, and her whole body was drenched in sweat.

She had been trying her best to keep the terrible childhood experience in her heart, trying to forget it, but tonight it invaded her mind like a flood of beasts, tormenting her almost to the point of collapse.

A beautiful figure walked out of the office building clutching her bag, and when she saw him walking towards her tall and straight, she burst into a smile full of joy.

He stood in front of her expressionlessly, and said, "Why are you coming down so late? Where's Shui Xi? Didn't I ask you to bring her along?"

She kept a gentle smile all the time: "I didn't finish some things during the day, so I stayed until the things were done before I came down. I'm sorry for making you wait so long."

"Where's Shui Xi? Is she still in there?" He looked at the already dark building and asked.

She shook her head: "I saw that she left early as soon as the off-duty time came. When I remembered to call her together, she had already disappeared at the door."

Seeing that he was silent and staring intently at the dark building, she hurriedly said, "Let's go."

"I suddenly remembered that I have important business to deal with. I'm afraid I can't go to dinner with you, so I have to go first." He said in a flat tone.

Her throat was hoarse and she couldn't speak, but she just looked at him with watery eyes.

Xia Lan is a rare beauty with temperament, especially when she is in tears, she has a touch of loveliness and tenderness, which can easily touch a man's heart.

In fact, in the magazine office, although she was a bit indifferent, she still had many male colleagues chasing after her, which proved that she had a lot of charm, at least she had the charm that made men palpitate.

And her charm is obviously not much in front of the man in front of her.

I saw him turn a deaf ear and said: "I'm sorry I can't accompany you tonight, you can call back, and I will call you tomorrow night depending on the situation."

After finishing speaking, we should turn around and leave.

Suddenly, a pair of catkins wrapped around her waist, and her soft and warm body was pressed against her back.

He closed his eyes in disgust, and said in a cold voice: "Don't do this, let go, I still have things to deal with urgently."

A muffled voice said, "If she came out with me now, I guess you don't have any urgent matters to deal with!"

No doubt is asserted.

"You think too much, I thought of it suddenly, I almost forgot, let go, I have to go." He grabbed her two tightly circled hands and separated them, but she closed them again.

Being entangled and hugged by a woman he doesn't love makes him disgusting like swallowing a fly. He is not as sentimental as Ling Muze, as long as a woman with a decent figure will want it.

Xia Lan looks good, with outstanding temperament, and a curvy figure, she is a beautiful woman, but he doesn't feel it, what he always wants is that haunted figure, which is the demon left behind when he saw her for the first time.

Her face was pressed against his back, and her eyes were shining with hatred, but the words she said were pleading: "I've been thinking about meeting you at night all day, if you just leave like this , I don't think I'll be able to sleep all night."

"Xia Lan, I thought you were a reasonable woman, not the clingy, self-willed one. You really let me down. I told you that I have business to deal with and I can't accompany you. You still want to pester me like this."

Xia Lan's voice was sad: "I don't want to do this either, but after looking forward to it for a day, it turned out to be nothing. I can't bear it. Ling Yucheng, I think I really love you."

"That's your business, I have to go." Unmoved, he was not in the mood to entangle her any longer, and pushed her hand away forcefully.

Seeing him resolutely walking towards the car, she trembled with anger. If she didn't have a little sense left, she would definitely throw her bag on the ground in embarrassment to vent her unwillingness.

His car drove into traffic, and she staggered back.

Looking up at the building, she smiled coldly, walked towards the intersection with her bag in her hand, stopped a taxi and jumped on it.

There were chattering voices all around her, which made her ears ringing and dizzy.

Forcefully opening her heavy eyelids, she vaguely saw many figures flickering.

He wanted to see clearly, but his tired eyes couldn't be opened no matter what.

"She's awake, she's awake." A woman's voice shouted.

She wanted to see what happened, who woke up, and who was really confused.

So tired, so painful, she couldn't even maintain the light, she closed her eyes again, only to vaguely hear someone shouting in her ear again: "She fell asleep again, pinch her, pinch her.

"

"Oh, isn't this Shui Xi? Why did she faint in the elevator?"

A very familiar and loud voice, this person must have a lot of lung capacity, Shui Xi was thinking in a daze, what else they said later, she lost her consciousness and could no longer hear it.

Suddenly, a sharp pain pinched her, pulling her out of the endless coma.

Opening his heavy eyes, a fat face that was about to ooze oil appeared in front of his eyes.

At this moment, seeing the face of seeing each other and hating each other, she was so moved that she wanted to cry, and said hoarsely: "The editor-in-chief..."

She saw tears flickering in the eyes of the editor-in-chief who wanted to be known for his violence.

He lifted her soft body up, let her lean half of her body on her body, and shouted at the office workers who were watching: "Turn your head away when you look at it."

For the first time, she felt that the chubby editor-in-chief was cute.

When she reached the magazine floor, the editor-in-chief helped her into the office.

It was a new day, and she passed out all night in the elevator.

As soon as I walked into the office, no colleagues came to work yet, and it was empty.

The editor-in-chief helped her to sit in the editor-in-chief's office, poured her a glass of water, and asked, "Why did you faint in the elevator?"

The memories of last night came like a flood, endless darkness and intense fear entangled her tightly, her breathing became difficult all of a sudden, the hand holding the cup was trembling, her face was as pale as paper.

Seeing that something was wrong with Shui Xi, the editor-in-chief hurried up to snatch the cup from her hand, stung by her terrified appearance, she stroked her back in relief, and comforted her in a voice: "It's okay, it's okay, It's in the past."

The editor-in-chief's comforting voice was soft, dispelling her fear little by little.

She looked up at the editor-in-chief with a pale face: "I didn't faint in the elevator, but the elevator broke down last night, and I shut it down all night."

"What?" The editor-in-chief opened his eyes wide in astonishment, and suddenly understood why Shui Xi was so weak and even in shock, thinking to himself: "Why did the elevator break down all of a sudden?"

Shui Xi was also at a loss, how could the elevator, which was so good, break down.

Seeing that Shui Xi's face was so pale, the editor-in-chief patted her on the shoulder and said, "I'll give you a day off today, go home and have a good rest."

Shui Xi nodded, stood up limply, and walked towards the door.

Looking at Shui Xi's leaving back, the editor-in-chief rested his chin on his hand and thought deeply, why did the elevator break down even though it was fine.

Shui Xi's shocking eyes kept flashing in front of her eyes, making her look firmly at one place.

This matter needs to be investigated clearly so that no one else encounters such an incident next time.

When Shui Xi walked out of the office, several colleagues had already gone to work, including Xia Lan.

Xia Lan saw Shui Xi coming out of the chief editor's office with a pale face, her eyes flashed a gloomy coldness, and then, she changed into worried eyes and walked towards her.

"Shui Xi, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so pale?" The tone was full of worry.

Shui Xi frowned: "I was stuck in the elevator last night."

"Ah, why are you trapped in the elevator all right? Are you okay? Is there anything wrong with you?" She panicked.

Not wanting to worry Xia Lan, she shook her head: "Just a little dizzy, the rest is fine."

"I knew that this kind of thing would happen to you. Last night, no matter what I said, I wanted to go downstairs with you. It's all my fault. I should have dragged you along." She blamed herself.

Shui Xi smiled weakly: "It's none of your business, once a person is unlucky, even drinking water will get stuck between his teeth."

"Is it scary to be trapped in the elevator by yourself last night?"

Shui Xi nodded noncommittally.
