Summer actually heard Ning Jie's shouts, but he completely ignored them. Although he didn't know where to go now that he had left the Yiren Fashion Company, he felt that even aimlessly wandering around would be better than staying there.

"I haven't visited Wife Meimei for a few days. Is she missing me" Summer muttered to himself and began pondering whether he should reach out to Song Yumei first.

When Summer thought about it, he was ready to act, but just as he took two steps forward, he stopped abruptly. The back view ahead looked so familiar!

A man and two women were standing at the elevator entrance, clearly waiting for the elevator. One of them, a tall woman with an ample posterior, seemed incredibly familiar to Summer; he had once stared at this part of her body for a long time in a certain hotel.

Summer quickly moved beside the tall woman and exclaimed cheerfully: "Sister Yun Qing! It really is you!"

This woman was indeed Yun Qing, a famous female lawyer from Jianghai City. She still wore her conservative professional attire, but it couldn't hide her mature figure. As for her most alluring phoenix eyes, they were as enticing as ever, and the hint of melancholy in her gaze remained unchanged.

"Mr. Xia, is that you" Yun Qing was also quite surprised to see Xia Tian. To be honest, Yun Qing didn't really want to meet Xia Tian because she knew he had been plotting against her all along. However, even in the capital city, they ran into each other, and she couldn't help but feel that the world was indeed a small place.

"Senior Sister Yun Qing, what are you doing here" Xia Tian asked curiously.

"I just finished handling some business," Yun Qing replied, then changed the subject. "Oh right, Mr. Xia, the court has notified me of your trial date; it's after National Day. I was going to inform you a few days ago, but I couldn't get through on your phone."

"Oh, Senior Sister Yun Qing, I've gotten a new number," Xia Tian said quickly. "Let me give you my current one!"

"Alright." Yun Qing didn't refuse; after all, now Xia Tian was her client, and if she didn't have his contact information, it wouldn't look too good.

"Ms. Yun, the elevator is here," a woman next to Yun Qing said at this moment. This woman was in her thirties with an average appearance and decent figure, while the man accompanying them looked to be around forty, of medium build and rather ordinary-looking.

The elevator was empty; there wasn't anyone inside. The four people stepped in together, and Yun Qing took out her phone to write down Xia Tian's number.

The elevator started descending and soon reached the fifth floor, where it stopped. The elevator doors opened, and about seven or eight people rushed in, filling the elevator to capacity; Yun Qing and Xia Tian were suddenly pushed into a corner.

The elevator doors closed again, and it began to descend. Just as it was reaching the fourth floor, there was a sudden loud bang, followed by a rapid free fall of the elevator!

"Ah..."

"The elevator is broken!"

"Help me!"

There were cries of alarm inside the elevator. Yun Qing also became tense at once. At this moment, she felt strong arms wrap around her waist, and a familiar voice said beside her ear, "Don't be afraid, Miss Yun Qing. I'm here to protect you."

Yun Qing, who had been feeling as if she was falling rapidly, suddenly found herself standing on level ground, just like taking an ordinary elevator ride.

"Mr. Xia, please let go of me!" Yun Qing protested softly, uncomfortable with Xia Tian's intimate embrace.

"Sis Yun Qing, if I let you go, you'll get hurt." Xia Tian wouldn't release Yun Qing naturally; he could never miss such a great opportunity. Not only did he not let her go but held her even tighter, their bodies pressing closer together.

Yun Qing wanted to say something more when another loud noise came, signaling that the elevator had landed. The elevator filled with screams and she even smelt blood; the lights inside suddenly went out. Even though it was daytime outside, the interior of the elevator felt rather dark.

"The elevator won't open, what should we do"

"Quickly call for help!"

"This emergency phone isn’t working; there's no response!"

“My leg hurts so much, it seems to be broken!”

"My head is bleeding, help me!"

The dozen or so people in the elevator appeared unusually panicked, with only two individuals remaining calm: Xia and Yun Qing. Xia's composure was nothing new, but as for Yun Qing, she had stayed calm because she hadn't felt anything amiss since the beginning—although in reality, Yun Qing did feel a bit unsettled, not due to the malfunctioning elevator, but because Xia was still holding her, leaving an odd feeling in her heart.

"Lawyer Yun, are you... alright" A man's voice came from nearby.

"I'm fine. How about you all" Yun Qing quickly replied.

"My leg hurts a bit, but I don't think it's broken." The man answered.

"I might have broken my hand." A woman’s voice was heard next, "Lawyer Yun, what should we do Will someone come to save us"

"Someone will come for sure. Just wait a moment," Yun Qing comforted the woman.

"Sis Yunqing, we don't need to wait for someone to rescue us." Xia Tian spoke at this moment. "Once I open the elevator doors, we can get out."

"Can you open the elevator door" Yun Qing couldn’t help but ask.

"Of course, I am all-powerful," Xia Tian began boasting again.

Yun Qing didn't think much of it. She had heard that men liked to brag, and indeed this was true; even this little brat who always had designs on her enjoyed boasting as well.

"Hey, make way!" Xia Tian shouted at one point. Then he hugged Yun Qing tightly and forcibly pushed through the crowd in front of them until they reached the elevator door. It wasn’t until then that he reluctantly let go of Yun Qing.

Next, he pressed both hands on the elevator doors; Yun Qing only saw him effortlessly push them inward with just one try—the elevator doors opened up and Xia Tian immediately re-hugged Yun Qing and slipped out of the elevator. The other people inside naturally followed suit right away.

Yun Qing was momentarily stunned, this guy really wasn’t bragging; he actually managed to open the elevator door!e asking for a beating," Xia Tian’s voice interjected angrily, "You hit my wife's car and need to pay up immediately before leaving. If not, I’ll beat you up!""What I, Lu Ziming, have never been threa...
