Wei Zilin: "…"
Hehe, he wanted to give Lin Chu maternity leave now, so that Yan Beicheng wouldn't come to his company to show off.
Everyone in the office was stunned. They never expected Yan Beicheng and Wei Zilin to be like this. The serious expression he had when he was working was all gone!
"Leave quickly!" Wei Zilin couldn't take it anymore and chased him away. "You're seriously affecting the work of my employees by staying here!"
The employees couldn't help but feel that the boss was too domineering. Only someone of his status would dare to speak to Yan Beicheng like this. His words were too reasonable, and they couldn't help but nod.
"Wait until my son moves." Yan Beicheng said calmly. He just couldn't chase him away. He lowered his head and said to Lin Chu's stomach, "Kid, hurry up and move. I'm being chased away. If you don't move, I'll hit you."
Lin Chu: "…"
It was so awkward.
However, she was too embarrassed to chase Yan Beicheng away in front of so many people.
Fortunately, the son in her stomach was very strong. Perhaps it was because she heard Yan Beicheng's threat, but not long after, she really moved. However, his movements were not very obvious. It gave off the feeling that he was testing the waters gently. After three or four seconds, he kicked again.
Yan Beicheng's face lit up. He looked at Lin Chu's stomach excitedly, his hands trembling. Suddenly, he grinned, looking very silly. "It … it moved!"
As he said this, he turned to Wei Zilin and said, "He moved!"
Wei Zilin nodded, expressionless.
Yan Beicheng rubbed Lin Chu's stomach. After rubbing it for a long time, he said unhappily, "Why aren't you moving again?"
"He's still young. Let him rest. If you move too much, I won't feel comfortable, "Lin Chu advised in a low voice. He knew how to deal with Yan Beicheng.
As expected, when Yan Beicheng heard Lin Chu say that he wasn't feeling well, he immediately stopped asking his son to move. Instead, he said, "Move less. Don't torture your mother."
"…" Wei Zilin really couldn't take it anymore. "Now that your son has moved, hurry back. Swallow Hui can't live without you."
In the end, he was gnashing his teeth in anger.
Lin Chu also quietly poked him, telling him not to stay here, making everyone uncomfortable.
Yan Beicheng did have work to do. He was supposed to attend a meeting but Zuo Qiu postponed it. Therefore, they really couldn't stay here for too long.
Hence, Yan Beicheng said to Lin Chu, "I'll pick you up in the afternoon."
She then stood up, not forgetting to remind Wei Zilin, "Although it's quite curious that my son moved, you can't touch him."
Wei Zilin: "…"
"Hurry up and leave!" Wei Zilin said with a black face.
But Yan Beicheng didn't leave. Instead, he kept looking at him.
The corner of Wei Zilin's mouth twitched, and he said speechlessly, "I won't touch."
Why would you touch your friend's wife for no reason? Even just feeling the fetal movement was very strange!
Only then did Yan Beicheng leave in satisfaction, leaving Lin Chu so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say.
Wei Zilin left with a straight face. Zheng Yuntong came over again. "You've touched Yan Beicheng. Can I touch him now?"
Lin Chu: "…"
"I'll call you when he moves again." The corner of Lin Chu's mouth twitched. She thought to herself that Yan Beicheng only cared about defending Wei Zilin, even though she felt that Wei Zilin really wouldn't come to feel any fetal movement. In the end, he failed to guard against what he should have been guarding against.
In the end, until Yan Beicheng came to pick her up in the afternoon, her son lazily didn't move again. Lin Chu walked out of the office under Zheng Yuntong's especially regretful and reluctant gaze.
In the elevator, Lin Chu looked at the time. It was 3: 30 pm.
There was enough time to get to Mo Jinxi's school.
She walked into the elevator, pressed the button for the first floor, and the elevator went down. Lin Chu took the elevator and habitually raised her head to pay attention to the changes in the floors above. When she reached the sixth floor, the elevator suddenly shook violently.
Lin Chu was shocked. She was suddenly frightened, and her face turned pale. She remembered reading on the Internet how to save herself if she encountered a situation in an elevator.
She first pressed the elevator alarm bell. She thought of the pictures on the Internet. If the elevator suddenly fell, she had to bend her legs and put her back and hands against the elevator wall. This would protect her if the elevator fell.
Lin Chu quickly positioned herself. She didn't ask for anything else. She just hoped that it would be a false alarm and that the child would be fine.
Just then, the walkie-talkie in the elevator rang. It was the building's property management.
Lin Chu quickly explained the situation.
The property management immediately sent security guards and workers to repair it. They also called 119.
Lin Chu was alone in the elevator. She couldn't help but feel a little scared. She took out her phone from her bag, but there was no signal.
Because of the lack of ventilation and the fact that she couldn't stand the heat during her pregnancy, she was especially nervous. It didn't take long for her to start sweating. She didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but her breathing wasn't smooth.
The elevator suddenly shook. Lin Chu couldn't help but scream. Her heart sank. She was afraid that the elevator would really fall.
However, as the elevator shook, the lights of the elevator suddenly flickered, as if responding to the rhythm of the shaking and bumping of the elevator. As the elevator shook, the lights flickered on and off, and the rhythm became faster and faster. Finally, after a few quick flashes, the lights went out with a snap.
The elevator was dark. She couldn't see anything. She couldn't even see her fingers in front of her.
Knowing that she was alone, Lin Chu couldn't help but feel nervous. She was very scared and didn't dare to look up. When she used to watch horror movies with her roommates in university, she always felt that there was something crawling in the dark corners. It was as if she could see the female ghost hanging above if she looked up.
Because the wall on the left was a mirror, Lin Chu didn't dare to take out her phone to light up. In a dim environment, the mirror was the scariest.
"Yan … Yan Beicheng …" Lin Chu couldn't help but sob. "Beicheng …"
Because she knew that Yan Beicheng was waiting for her at the company's entrance, she wanted Yan Beicheng to be by her side. Even hearing his voice now was good enough.
Because she was afraid, her tears came out uncontrollably. Since she had already cried, she couldn't help but cry more and more fiercely.
"Please wait a little longer. Our maintenance staff is already working on it!" A voice said from the walkie-talkie.
Listening to it, she seemed to feel more at ease.
"You … You guys hurry up." Lin Chu sobbed. "I'm still pregnant. It's hard to breathe now."
"Right away, right away!" The voice on the walkie-talkie also became nervous. "We've also called the fire department. They've already arrived and are opening the elevator. They'll be able to take you out soon. Don't be nervous. Take deep breaths with me. Try not to talk as much as possible and maintain your strength. "
Lin Chu sobbed. She had the urge to call Yan Beicheng over. Even if it was just to hear Yan Beicheng's voice, she didn't want Yan Beicheng to worry, so she resisted the thought.
It was hard to breathe. She couldn't stand still, but she endured it. No matter what, just in case, she maintained her original posture.
She touched her stomach with one hand. "Mommy will definitely protect you."
"Madam, please relax. We're the fire department. We'll get you out now." A man's voice sounded from outside. It sounded full of righteousness.
"Okay, okay," Lin Chu replied with a trembling voice.
Suddenly, another nervous voice sounded. "Lin Chu, are you inside?"
This voice belonged to Yan Beicheng.
Hearing his nervous and slightly trembling voice, Lin Chu's heart ached. This was the reason why she gave up on telling him about this. She didn't want him to worry too much.
If she was here, he would only be more nervous than she was outside.
"Beicheng, I'm here. I'm fine," Lin Chu said calmly. She didn't want Yan Beicheng to worry.
But Yan Beicheng had already heard Lin Chu's trembling voice when she answered the fire department. He didn't believe Lin Chu's calmness at all.
The elevator was stuck between the fifth and sixth floors. Right now, Yan Beicheng, the fire department, and the property management staff were all on the sixth floor.
Seeing the fire department open the elevator door, they could gradually see the interior of the elevator.
Even when it was completely separated, the light from the outside shone into the pitch-black elevator. Lin Chu was still not used to it and tilted her head to avoid the light. After a while, she turned her head back.
Because she was too nervous, she forgot to change her posture and kept leaning against the wall.
"Lin Chu, it's fine now!" Yan Beicheng leaned against the elevator door and looked down.
Only then did Lin Chu react. She slowly stood up and walked towards the door. Because she was too nervous and had been maintaining the same posture, her hands and feet were stiff and sore. It was especially uncomfortable.
The fire department saw that it was inconvenient for Lin Chu to climb up with a big belly, so they quietly went down. "Don't worry, I'll carry you up."
Lin Chu nodded and was carried up by the fire department.
Lin Chu didn't need to use much effort to climb up. Yan Beicheng was on top to catch her. Without needing Lin Chu to use any strength, Yan Beicheng directly clamped her armpits and carried her up.
He carefully prevented her from hitting her stomach.
It wasn't until Lin Chu stood firmly on the ground that Yan Beicheng hugged her tightly.
Lin Chu felt that she wasn't the only one trembling. Even Yan Beicheng was trembling.
"It's fine, it's fine," he murmured in her ear to comfort her and himself.
Lin Chu felt her legs go soft. After being hugged by him for a while, she finally recovered.
"Are you alright? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? "Yan Beicheng saw that her face was pale and her forehead was sweating.
He took out a handkerchief to wipe her clean. Lin Chu shook her head. "It's nothing. It's just that I was afraid when I was trapped inside just now. In addition to the lack of ventilation, it was difficult for me to breathe and I sweated a lot. I'm much better now."
"How about your stomach? Do you feel anything? "Yan Beicheng touched her stomach worriedly.
Lin Chu shook her head. "I'm fine."
Yan Beicheng was worried and wanted to take her to the hospital.
"I'm really fine," Lin Chu said. "I wasn't trapped for long and I didn't get hurt anywhere. At most, I was under a little more psychological pressure. I'm fine now."
Looking at the time, it was already 3: 40. She said, "Jin Xi is still waiting for us at school."
