Chapter 18: Being a cannon fodder!
The other party moved too quickly, and Wen Shuang couldn't even see who it was. There was a burst of cold air all around, but a surge of evil fire rushed from his heart and lungs to his limbs. Wen Shuang quickly calmed himself down, worried that he would be angry to death at such a young age. He took out his mobile phone and looked at it. As expected, there was no signal.
Wen Shuang laughed in anger, then raised his middle finger to the sky.
In his previous life, he came from a scholarly family and had been well-mannered since childhood, but recently he had used up all the swear words he had ever used in his life.
Wen Shuang was talking non-stop in his mind, but he felt much better after cursing, his anger subsided, and he only then noticed the coldness. He put on a shirt when he came down. Wen Shuang looked around and found some dusty work clothes in the corner. Without caring about anything else, Wen Shuang put them on first, and then studied the buttons at the door. There were no instructions on them, but Wen Shuang still tried them one by one, especially the red button in the middle. There was still no signal on his phone, and he sniffed, thinking that the whole company would have its first inspection at around seven o'clock, and he would definitely be discovered by then at the latest.
After about three hours, Wen Shuang rubbed her hands and thought to herself, "God, you have the guts to kill me!"
God must have heard his call and very considerately lowered the temperature again. Half an hour later, a layer of frost and snow covered Wen Shuang's eyelashes. He huddled in the corner closest to the door, his limbs stiff, with only a ball of heat left in his heart.
"Where is he?" Xuan Zhe frowned slightly when he saw Cao Nanyu coming in with a confused look on his face.
"Boss Xuan, we can't contact Wen Shuang." Cao Nanyu was also very confused. "The Propaganda Department said he didn't take his things. He went downstairs around four o'clock and never came back."
Xuanzhe keenly sensed that something was amiss and made a quick decision: "Check the surveillance."
Quanyi's surveillance covers a wide area. Xuanzhe stood in the surveillance room, and the staff didn't dare to make a sound. They saw Wen Shuang take the elevator on the left and reappear on the underground floor. Due to structural problems on the underground floor, only one cold storage camera could be installed every three warehouses on the left. After Wen Shuang walked past the first camera, the second surveillance camera never captured his figure again.
Xuanzhe's eyes were cold, and he thought of many possibilities in an instant. He turned around and strode away, followed by a group of people.
Two of the three cold storage rooms separated by the surveillance station were locked.
Xuanzhe said without further ado: "Open it."
The staff member in charge of this area immediately stepped forward and unlocked the key. It was not Wen Shuang's fault. The password of the cold storage was changed every day. Once locked, it could only be opened from the outside. The red alarm system he pressed would not be accepted at all.
There seemed to be some movement. Wen Shuang opened his eyelids with difficulty. He raised one hand with great effort to knock on the gate, but after just one knock, he fell out.
The door opened.
Wen Shuang thought it would be nice to have a warm hug with the ground, rather than being frozen into an ice sculpture inside.
Before he fell to the ground, Xuanzhe quickly stepped forward and caught him.
Wen Shuang's hair seemed to be frozen, and his whole body was filled with a biting cold. He subconsciously raised his head and rubbed his cheek against Xuan Zhe's jaw, and even Xuan Zhe trembled slightly.
"You're here..." Wen Shuang's brain was almost frozen and she couldn't think normally. Her rationality was offline and her instincts took over her entire mind. In Wen Shuang's opinion, Xuan Zhe was the only person she could trust and rely on since she came to this world. His simple three words disturbed Xuan Zhe's mind in an instant.
Xuanzhe took off his coat with a serious face, wrapped Wen Shuang in it, stood up and looked at the staff member.
The staff were also shocked. Why did she go to the cold storage room for no reason? And the temperature during the period was usually maintained at -3 or -4 degrees Celsius. Why did the sign on the door indicate that the temperature of -15 degrees Celsius could only be controlled from the outside after closing the valve? In other words, Wen Shuang couldn't have locked herself in and then lowered the temperature. Thinking about it carefully, it was terrifying. In all likelihood, she was being set up. The staff was dejected. "Don't worry, Mr. Xuan, I will investigate thoroughly!"
In front of other people, Wen Shuang would definitely keep silent, but Xuan Zhe was different. His throat was sore and he made a small sound, "Someone pushed me."
"Yeah." Xuanzhe responded and strode away with the person in his arms.
After the extreme cold, Wen Shuang felt like he was thrown into a charcoal brazier. The high temperature threatened to burn his skin to ashes. He felt so uncomfortable that he kept pulling at the quilt. The back of his hand stung slightly, and then he heard an angry shout in his ear: "Don't move!"
It sounded familiar, and Wen Shuang became more obedient. He had a high fever and didn't go away. When he held that hand, he felt the coolness and comfort, and then he refused to let go no matter what.
The other party struggled for a few times and then stopped.
Xuanzhe let him grab him and rang the bedside bell, waiting for the doctors and nurses to come in and give Wen Shuang another injection. Cao Nanyu followed in, not even looking away, not daring to look at this "beautiful" scene. In his eyes, Wuchen would never touch the Boss of worldly affairs!
"Your physical condition is not very good, but you are young. You just need to take good care of yourself after you are discharged from the hospital." The doctor inserted the needle, gave a few instructions and then left.
"Boss Xuan." Cao Nanyu whispered after everyone had left, "We checked all the surveillance footage. About five minutes after Wen Shuang was locked up, we caught a blurry figure at the corner of the right exit. But it was only a small fragment. They must be familiar with the blind spots and were very quick."
"I understand." Xuanzhe's expression remained unchanged. When he asked Cao Nanyu to investigate, he was prepared for a "headless case". The other party's target was Wen Shuang. She dared to act so recklessly in the Quanyi Building. It seemed that she was a "big vendetta". If he failed to get what he wanted once, there would probably be a second time. As long as that person dared to do it again, Xuanzhe would find her out.
But this little thing... Xuanzhe glanced at Wen Shuang. As he got to know her better, he began to wonder if the soul under this skin had changed. Why was her behavior so different from before?
Cao Nanyu: "..." Wen Shuang is sick, is President Xuan so worried? Look at that look, so focused!
Woo woo woo, I bumped into something.
If Xuanzhe knew what Cao Nanyu was thinking at this moment, he would definitely kick him out of the ward.
Wen Shuang finally woke up two days later. It felt like all the bones in his body were broken and reassembled. After the high fever, he felt like a pool of rotten meat. He opened his mouth and burst into coughing. Someone immediately stroked his chest and handed the straw to his lips. Wen Shuang took two deep breaths. Everything in front of him was shaking, and finally fixed on Fang Su's concerned face, "Sister Fang..." Wen Shuang shouted.
Fang Su hurriedly said, "I'm here, I'm here."
After Wen Shuang was fully awake, Fang Su told him one thing. It was true that she had sent that WeChat message, but Fang Su himself had no recollection of it. To be precise, his memory of that period was completely blank. Last night, he heard that Wen Shuang was hospitalized, and when he was looking through his phone to ask about the situation, he found that WeChat message. When he looked at the time, Fang Su was a little confused.
It was obvious that Wen Shuang wanted to go to the underground garage after seeing this WeChat message.
Fang Su kept apologizing, and he could only attribute it to the fact that he was too busy and sent the wrong message. Wen Shuang smiled and said it was okay. In fact, he knew very well in his heart that it was not Fang Su's intention, nor was it any coincidence. It was simple - he was being targeted by this world.
There must be an unknown force controlling the development of the plot. Wen Shuang has been avoiding too many risks recently, and the other party is unhappy.
Fine, Wen Shuang curled her lips. He would definitely do his best to avoid them one by one and be cannon fodder for nothing!
