The super rich starts with the self-discipline challenge

Chapter 50 Can You Be Gentle?

The lights in the elevator suddenly went out, and it was pitch dark.

Zhong Yun's heart was pounding and he subconsciously leaned his back against the elevator car. At this moment, something hit his chest.

His eyes went dark and he almost suffocated.

It took a second or two to catch my breath.

What the hell?

Zhong Yun felt a pain in his sternum from the collision. He was about to push the thing in his arms away, but when he reached out to touch it, he realized that it was a person.

Besides him, the only person in the elevator was President Xia.

is her?

He suddenly woke up and asked with concern, "Boss Xia, are you okay?"

At this time, the elevator stopped shaking and had stopped. Although it was pitch black all around, it was not so scary at all.

Zhong Yun felt that something was wrong with Xia Siyin in his arms. She was completely limp and her body was shaking uncontrollably.

This reminded him of the little kitten at his grandmother's house when he was a child. When he touched it for the first time, its body trembled slightly like this, which really aroused people's love.

"Mr. Xia?"

Zhong Yun called out twice, but she didn't respond. However, he could hear her breathing becoming more and more rapid, as if she was about to suffocate.

This made him feel a little uneasy.

Doesn't she have asthma or something?

He quickly took out his cell phone from his pocket, turned on the light, and shone it towards the person in front of him.

Xia Siyin's hair was disheveled, her eyes were tightly closed, her hands were covering her ears, she was sweating profusely, and her breathing was rapid, as if she was about to suffocate.

Is this epilepsy?

Or asthma?

Zhong Yun was a little confused. He had never learned much about first aid and really didn't know how to deal with it.

"Yes, ask for help first!"

He pointed his phone at the elevator's emergency button, but found that he couldn't reach it, so he moved a little. This time, Xia Siyin seemed to be stimulated and suddenly hugged his thighs.

At this point, he couldn't care less and took another step until he finally touched the emergency button.

He kept pressing the button and shouted, "Is there anyone here? We are trapped, come and save us..."

I shouted several times, but there was no response.

"Oh, right, the cell phone."

Zhong Yun called for help in vain and soon thought of his cell phone. He opened the screen and saw that there was no signal at all. He did not give up and tried to dial 119.

Can't get through at all.

After calling seven or eight times without success, he gave up.

"System, are you not a human being?"

He cursed in his heart, this broken system is always causing trouble.

This time, it must be the system that caused this. Otherwise, how could the elevator break down for no reason?
……

Zhong Yun looked down and saw President Xia kneeling on the ground with his hands tightly holding his thighs. This posture looked weird.

He squatted down and tried to calm her down, "Boss Xia, you can open your eyes now. Everything is fine..."

As he spoke, the light on his phone suddenly went out, and the elevator fell into darkness again.

"..."

I forgot to bring the charger up in the morning, and because I went out in the afternoon and my phone’s battery was almost enough, I didn’t go downstairs to get the charger.

When I came to pick up Xia Siyin just now, the battery was only 8% left. Now the battery is gone and it has automatically shut down.

Zhong Yun asked, "Boss Xia, where's your cell phone?"

I asked several times, but there was no response.

I can only find it myself.

"Most women carry their cell phones either in their hands or in their bags."

When Xia Siyin entered the elevator just now, she was holding a bag in her hand.

It must have fallen to the ground.

Zhong Yun wanted to look for it, but there was no way he could do it with such a burden hanging on his legs.

"Boss Xia, please let go first. I'll find your phone first. Boss Xia?"

As he spoke, he tried to pry her hands apart.

She clasped her hands tightly.

Zhong Yun didn't dare to use too much force for fear of hurting her. It would be troublesome if he accidentally broke her fingers.

no solution anymore.

He could only lie down and feel around in the dark, but he couldn't find the bag.

He stood up again and moved step by step to the other side of the elevator.

After spending a lot of time and being sweaty, I finally found a bag on the ground.

Zhong Yun couldn't wait to open the bag, find the cell phone inside, and press the power button.

After a few seconds, there was no response.

"No way?"

He didn't give up and pressed the power button again. After ten seconds, there was still no response. Her phone was also out of battery?

……

Well, it looks like there will be no light today.

Zhong Yun gave up struggling. It didn't matter if there was no light. Anyway, someone would come to rescue him tomorrow morning at the latest.

He lowered his head and said to Xia Siyin in the dark, "Boss Xia, you'd better let go. I can't run away..."

"If you hold my legs like this and get caught on camera, it will damage your image..."

"You must be so tired, how about we change positions?"

……

He talked until his mouth was dry, but Xia Siyin still didn't react at all.

He also lost his patience.

You're forcing me to use my special trick, right?
"Boss Xia, to be honest, I can't hold it anymore. If I accidentally pee, it will be bad for you."

No response to this?
Could he have fainted?

Zhong Yun was a little worried, so he reached out his hand and soon touched it. It was smooth, so it should be her face. He moved his hand a little to the side and touched her nose.

Going further down, I touched the soft lips.

Just a little bit up, here it is.

Zhong Yun pressed down hard with his thumb.

This was the only first aid method he could think of, pinching the Ren Zhong point.

After pressing hard a few times, Xia Siyin finally reacted, pulled her hand back, and then pushed his hand away with force.

“It really works!”

The ancient wisdom of the Chinese nation is indeed reliable.

Zhong Yun was just feeling overjoyed when he felt his arms tighten and was hugged tightly.

Just hug me.

It's always better to hug your arms than your legs.

He slowly sat down on the ground, and after struggling for a long time, he was finally able to sit down and rest.

However, he did not stop talking, "Boss Xia, elevators are very safe nowadays. The mortality rate is only 0.0002 per 10,000, which is much safer than driving."

"As long as there is a malfunction in the elevator, the safety mechanism will be triggered to lock the elevator car and prevent it from falling down, thus ensuring the safety of the people."

"Now we just need to wait for the firefighters to come and rescue us. Believe me, soon the security guards will find that the elevator is broken and come to check if anyone is trapped..."

"Don't be afraid, really."

When Zhong Yun said this, he swallowed his saliva and wished he would have brought a thermos cup with him.

He was always worried about being laughed at for being old, or middle-aged, so he didn't bring a thermos. Now he regrets it a little bit, he shouldn't care about what others think.

He continued, "Mr. Xia, do you know that fear is actually a self-protection mechanism for humans?"

"It's just like pain. When your body is injured, it hurts. It's your body asking for help and warning you."

"The difference is that emotions are more advanced than touch. If you feel pain, it means your body is hurt. But if you feel fear and terror, it doesn't mean there will be real danger."

"It's just like being afraid of the dark and ghosts. It's just the darkness and the unknown that trigger the fear in your heart. There's not necessarily any real danger."

"As long as you understand the mechanism of fear, you will find that there is nothing to be afraid of."

"You know what? When I was a kid, I was afraid of the dark. I would be scared to sleep alone in my room at night, so my sister bought me a desk lamp with adjustable brightness. Every time I went to bed, I would adjust the brightness a little darker than the last time. Until one day, I was no longer afraid to sleep with the light off."

"I was also afraid of ghosts when I was a kid. One summer vacation, my sister showed me horror movies every day, and then immediately showed me comedy movies. After one summer vacation, I was no longer afraid of ghosts."

"besides……"

As Zhong Yun was talking, he suddenly realized that Xia Siyin's body had stopped shaking since some point.

Just then, he heard someone outside shouting, "Is anyone in the elevator?"

"Someone. Is here!"

Zhong Yun was excited and finally saved.

At this moment, Xia Siyin beside him suddenly leaned close to his ear and whispered, "If you dare to tell anyone about what happened today, I will never let you go."

Ok?
Good guy.

It’s different when rescue arrives. It’s not the time when I was so scared that I hugged his thighs.

If you have the guts, just let go of your hand.

At this moment, Xia Siyin was still holding his arm tightly without letting go.

Zhong Yun asked in surprise, "Did anything happen today?"

Accompanied by the sound of prying the door, rays of light shone in, making it impossible for him to open his eyes, and he closed them subconsciously.

"Are you guys okay?"

"Are you injured?"

"Successfully rescued two trapped people"

……

Amidst all the chatter, Zhong Yun felt that Xia Siyin was clinging to him, her body extremely tense and somewhat stiff.

He wanted to say, "Can you be gentler? It hurts."

His hand must have turned purple from being pinched.
