Chapter 20: The Man From Five Years Ago
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Qiao Zhen was waiting for the elevator when she heard footsteps. She turned her head and saw Gong Jue. It was a rare sight.
Gong Jue felt a little uncomfortable and came out for a walk. He didn’t expect to meet Qiao Zhen here.
Qiao Zhen took the initiative to greet him.
“Mr. Gong, what a coincidence.”
Gong Jue stared at Qiao Zhen with a cold face and looked away. Finally, he snorted.
“Hm.”
Seeing that Gong Jue had no intention of continuing the conversation, Qiao Zhen didn’t say anything. She lowered her head and played with her fingers. There was no need for her to stick to his cold face with excessive passion.
Ding.
The elevator door slowly opened.
Gong Jue took the advantage of his long legs and stepped in first. Qiao Zhen took a deep breath and walked in as well.
Qiao Zhen leaned against the elevator as soon as she entered. As she felt the coolness on her back from the wall, she felt a little more at ease. She stared at the numbers on the screen that kept dropping and her hands were clutched due to her anxiety.
Seeing that they were about to reach the floor she needed to go, Qiao Zhen finally let out a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, the elevator shook and the lights started to flicker. Qiao Zhen’s expression immediately changed. She quickly pressed on all the floors and waited for the doors to open.
However, it was useless. After three seconds, all the lights went out at the same time!
The elevator instantly fell into darkness.
“Ah!”
Qiao Zhen couldn’t help but scream. Because of her experience of being imprisoned for half a year five years ago, she was claustrophobic.
She curled up in a corner and tried her best to shrink herself into a ball. Her whole body tensed up and her hands covered her head tightly.
Except for the faint red light from the surveillance camera, the entire elevator was pitch-black.
The images of being imprisoned five years ago kept appearing in Qiao Zhen’s mind. She couldn’t get rid of it no matter how hard she tried. Her brain seemed to have frozen and she couldn’t think. She could only recall the fear from that time over and over again. And that trauma was magnified in the darkness..
Gong Jue saw that something was wrong with Qiao Zhen and reached out his hand.
“What happened?”
Gong Jue’s voice became the only light in the darkness. Just as he reached out his hand, Qiao Zhen seemed to have grabbed onto a life-saving straw. She hugged it tightly and refused to let go. In the next second, she actually hid in Gong Jue’s arms.
Gong Jue paused for a second. He felt that the person in his arms was trembling uncontrollably, so he didn’t push her away. She must be claustrophobic. He reached out his hand and pressed the elevator alarm.
“We’ll be out soon.”
Gong Jue lowered his head and looked at the ostrich-like woman in his arms. He didn’t reject her and allowed her to hide in his arms. His hands also reached Qiao Zhen’s waist.
The moment he touched her, Gong Jue retracted his hands. His mind inexplicably recalled the night when he was set up with “Qiao Yu”five years ago.
That night, that woman’s waist was soft and her moans were sweet..
She was completely different from the current Qiao Yu. He didn’t have any desire for Qiao Yu and never touch her again.
Qiao Zhen held on and kept pinching her thigh. Only then did she ease up a little. She pretended to be calm and pulled the corners of her mouth. However, her voice was still trembling as she forced a smile.
“Mr. Gong, I’m sorry to have offended you. This time you helped me. Let’s take it as the exchange for helping you with Eric. We’re even now”
Gong Jue didn’t say anything, which was a tacit agreement.
On the other side, Eric looked at the monitor on the screen and smiled evilly. He rubbed his hands excitedly.
They were hugging!
When would they move on to the next step?
Watching the two slowly separate, Eric chuckled and pressed two more keys on the keyboard.
Qiao Zhen felt much better and tried her best to get out of Gong Jue’s arms. After finally getting mentally prepared, the elevator suddenly jolted up and down.
Qiao Zhen hurriedly rushed back and hugged Gong Jue tightly. Then, she crawled into Gong Jue’s arms again, and her body became even stiffer.
A few seconds later, the elevator finally stopped shaking and hung in the air, neither up nor down.
At this moment, in the monitoring room, Qiao Yinuo came to take a look where she could find Qiao Zhen, only to found that Eric was also there.
“What are you doing?”
Qiao Yinuo quietly stood behind Eric and suddenly said.
Eric was shocked and quickly covered his laptop. He stared at Nuonuo and smiled, “Nothing!”
Qiao Yinuo stared at him suspiciously.
Eric tried to change the topic, “Nuonuo, do you want a good-looking brother with a rich family? I’ll give you a chance.”
“No!” Nuonuo looked at Eric as if he was a fool and remained unmoved.
“Why don’t you give me a chance! Good Nuonuo!”
Eric tried his best to promote himself. Who wouldn’t want such a cute sister?
Nuonuo:”…”
At night, Qiao Zhen had a wet dream.
In her dream, the scene from five years ago appeared again. The man’s hot breath seemed to be right next to her ear, her strong body, and her kneading…
Under the dim light, Qiao Zhen’s body moved up and down with his movements, trying to see his face clearly.
This time, his face became clearer bit by bit. The man’s face was dripping with sweat, and his eyes were filled with lust..
And that face was actually..
Gong Jue!
