Yan Su took out the key and opened the door of the attic.
Lin Ning was surprised, "I didn't expect you to have the key to the attic. It seems that Mrs. Qin is good to you."
Yan Su smiled bitterly, turned on the light and said, "Let's check! I remember that the set of crystal cups was placed in the cabinet in the southwest corner last year. "
"Wow, there are so many things!" Lin Ning opened her mouth in surprise. The room was full of dazzling things, and the big room was full of good things.
Although it was arranged in order, and some things were even packed in boxes, just looking at the things outside was enough to surprise her.
"These are some defective products, and they are useless. The real place to put good things is not here. The key to that place is not something that I can obtain. "Yan Su smiled bitterly.
Lin Ning was embarrassed. She remembered that she was envious of him being used by Mrs. Qin, but she didn't expect that he was just looking at defective products.
"I'm sorry!" Lin Ning apologized.
Yan Su smiled and said, "It's okay. My identity is awkward, and it is my honor to be able to enter the old house of the Qin family."
Lin Ning pursed her lips and said, "Don't say that. You … are also a member of the Qin family, and it is natural for you to come here."
Yan Su shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "You must have heard about me! But you must not know that if I was born two days earlier, my identity and Qin Chengyan's would have been swapped. At that time, my mother and Mrs. Qin were pregnant at the same time, and my mother's due date was a week earlier than Mrs. Qin's. The old man said that whoever gave birth to a son would be his next wife. But I, who should have been born earlier, was born two days later. Because of this, my identity and Qin Chengyan's identity were very different. Originally, the old man wanted to kill me. He couldn't let his heir have a threat like me, but my mother ran away with me. When I was brought back, I was already ten years old. The old man wanted to drown me, but my mother saved my life. That's how I got my current identity. But my mother died for me. It is already a great honor for me to be alive. How can I ask for anything else? When my mother passed away, she told me that I must live well, not resent anyone, and live with her. "
"Ah, there's such a thing?" Lin Ning was horrified.
She had only seen this kind of thing in TV dramas. She didn't expect it to happen in real life. Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs. Old Master Qin had actually done such a crazy thing.
"You don't have to look at me with pity in your eyes. In fact, I feel very good now. At least, I'm much better than the average person," Yan Su said with a smile.
Lin Ning pursed her lips and sighed softly. She didn't know what to say.
This was a matter of the Qin family. Her own position was very awkward, so naturally, she couldn't say anything to Yan Su.
"Is it that cabinet? Let's see if it's filled." Lin Ning quickly changed the topic and opened a cabinet with a crystal cup written on it.
Sure enough, there was a set of eleven crystal cups in it. There should have been twelve in it originally. Now there was one less, just as Yan Su said.
"It's not filled! It's better to talk to Mrs. Qin, "Lin Ning said.
Yan Su nodded, "I'll talk to her! She won't ask how you know. I'll say that I accidentally saw the account book, so I know about it. "
"Thank you!" Lin Ning thanked him.
Yan Su said with a smile, "You're welcome. It's what I should do."
"It's so stuffy inside. Let's go out!" Lin Ning wiped the sweat on his forehead and said.
This attic was really stuffy. Maybe it was because there were no windows, but she couldn't stand the heat after a while. Her forehead was sweating, and her clothes were soaked. She had to go out and get some fresh air.
Yan Su nodded and walked to the door first. He opened the door and was ready to go out.
But he didn't expect to pull the door and frowned, "Why can't I open the door?"
"Ah?" Lin Ning was surprised and quickly pulled the door.
She was strong enough, but she couldn't open the door. It was clearly locked outside, so she couldn't open it.
"It seems … locked." Lin Ning murmured.
Yan Su was stunned and immediately pulled again. He gritted his teeth and pulled hard, but he still couldn't open it.
His face became ugly, and he quickly said, "Someone must have secretly locked the door when we weren't paying attention."
"Ah, what should we do? I'm dying of heat. Does he want to suffocate us here? Don't you have the key? Try using the key. "Lin Ning said hurriedly.
Yan Su took out the key and tried, but it couldn't open at all. She gritted her teeth and said, "It's locked from the outside. My key can't open it at all. I think the person who locked the door didn't just want to suffocate us. "
"Then what else does he want? Who's so wicked? This is too much." Lin Ning said angrily.
She started to look for her phone. Only then did she realize that she was in a hurry and didn't bring her phone with her.
"Did you bring your phone?" Lin Ning asked hurriedly.
Yan Su took it out and looked at it. She frowned and said, "It's out of battery."
Lin Ning: "…"
"What do we do now? We don't have a phone. We can't even call for help." Lin Ning was so anxious that she stomped her feet.
She hesitated for a moment and rushed to the door. She knocked on the door and shouted, "Help! Help! We're locked inside. "
"Don't shout." Yan Su quickly covered her mouth and dragged her to the back.
Lin Ning struggled and struggled out of Yan Su's arms. She said, "What are you doing? Why don't you let me shout? If I don't shout, how will someone come to save us?"
"If someone knows that we're here, do you think they'll be able to explain?" Yan Su asked.
Lin Ning was stunned and quickly understood.
"We just came to look at the crystal cup. We didn't do anything. What's there to explain?" Lin Ning said embarrassedly.
She didn't believe it herself. Mrs. Qin had long been waiting to catch her by her pigtails. This was not a great opportunity.
Yan Su smiled bitterly and said, "If Mrs. Qin knows, with her hatred for you, she will definitely tell Qin Chengyan with exaggeration! At that time, do you think Qin Chengyan will believe you? He doesn't like me. If he knows that you're with me, I'm afraid he'll be even angrier. I think this is the reason why the person outside deliberately locked the door and locked us inside. "
"But if no one comes to save us, how are we going to get out? Are we going to stay here forever?" Lin Ning anxiously said.
"I know this door." Yan Su said, "The person outside locks the door and it's also an electronic door. They're afraid that we'll encounter a thief, so they set up this function. Generally, after three hours, it will automatically open. We can only take advantage of that time to get out. "
"Three hours?" Lin Ning cried out.
Not to mention three hours, even if she stayed here for thirty minutes, she would collapse from the heat.
It was too hot and there was no ventilation on all sides. Moreover, it was an attic. It was simply like a big steamer.
"Go out now and be misunderstood. Or wait for three hours. It's your choice." Yan Su said.
Lin Ning thought about it and sat on the ground. She gritted her teeth and said, "Wait for three hours!"
