Hua Chang's expression was filled with anxiety. "Brother, is there any surveillance at home?"
Shen Changmin's eyes flashed, and he said smoothly: "Yes, but Qi Mu also asked me for the key to the surveillance camera just now. He should have arrived at the monitoring room now."
"Take me there." Hua Shang immediately responded.
Every moment she couldn't see Zi Ning, her heart became more panicked.
"Come with me."
Hua Chang followed Shen Changmin's pace, silently hoping that nothing would happen to Bo Zining.
A moment later, the two stood at the door of the monitoring room.
Sure enough, the door of the monitoring room was open.
"I'll wait for you outside." Shen Changmin spoke first.
Hua Chang nodded and walked into the monitoring room.
Qi Mu's tall and slender figure was seen adjusting the surveillance equipment, his god-like face staring at the surveillance screen.
He looked so absorbed that it seemed as if he hadn't noticed anyone entering the monitoring room.
Hua Chang did not say anything to interrupt him, but admired Qi Mu's appearance.
If this face entered the entertainment industry, I wonder what kind of trouble it would cause.
As Hua Chang was admiring it, the man spoke slowly, "I found out."
"Huh?" Hua Shang was stunned: "You knew I was here?"
Qi Mu frowned and shifted his gaze from the surveillance screen to Hua Shang: "Do I look stupid?"
How could he not know that a living person had come?
Hua Shang coughed. She didn't expect that Qi Mu's senses could be so sharp even when he was concentrating.
"How is it?" Hua Shang walked to Qi Mu with a serious expression.
At this moment, the door of the monitoring room suddenly closed.
"Bang!"
When Hua Chang heard the sound of the iron gate closing, she felt something was wrong.
But when he thought that Shen Changmin was outside the monitoring room, his anxiety was reduced by half.
However, the next second.
The lights in the monitoring room went out, and the surroundings instantly fell into darkness.
Hua Chang's heart skipped a beat.
It seems her uneasiness is not groundless.
Hua Chang walked quickly to the door, but found that the door handle could not be turned.
Obviously locked.
"Mr. Qi, give me the key." Hua Shang said, "The door is locked. It can be opened with the key."
However, what she waited for was a counter-question: "What key?"
Hua Chang was stunned: "Don't you have the key to the monitoring room?"
This was what Shen Changmin told her himself.
She didn't think Shen Changmin would lie to her.
"I don't have the key. Shen Changmin opened the door and called Xie Ze away."
Qi Mu tried his best to remain calm.
Fortunately, it was dark all around and no one noticed that he was trembling slightly all over.
The car accident that year left him with a sequelae: claustrophobia.
No one else knew about this except Xie Ze.
After hearing Qi Mu's answer, Hua Chang had an idea in her mind: "I suspect that someone deliberately locked us up here."
Even the suspects are there.
"Do you think it's Shen Changmin?"
"Yes." Hua Chang admitted generously: "First, they took Zi Ning away, then they sent Xie Ze away and locked us up here."
"What is his purpose in doing this?" Qi Mu asked back.
Doing this will not benefit Shen Changmin at all.
Hua Chang pursed her lips. This was also what puzzled her: "Maybe it's just a coincidence."
Hua Chang gave up the idea and took out her cell phone to call Shen Changmin.
But I found that there was no signal in the monitoring room.
The corners of her mouth twitched. Could it be that she and Qi Mu would have to wait until the staff came to work tomorrow before they could be rescued?
Just then, Hua Chang discovered that Qi Mu was no longer moving.
She turned on the flashlight and found that Qi Mu had huddled in the corner at some point.
"Mr. Qi, what's wrong with you?" Hua Shang frowned and asked with concern.
She walked closer to Qi Mu and saw that his body was trembling slightly. Hua Shang had the answer in her mind.
Qi Mu's symptoms are very similar to claustrophobia.
Knowing that people with claustrophobia are afraid of being alone in a confined environment, Hua Chang reached out and gently placed her hand on Qi Mu's shoulder: "Mr. Qi, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Qi Mu raised his dark eyes, his eyes filled with fear and helplessness.
This was the first time Hua Chang saw other emotions in Qi Mu's eyes.
There was a bit more concern in her eyes, and her voice was as soft as a clear spring: "Mr. Qi, you are not alone, I will accompany you."
Qi Mu pursed his thin lips.
For some reason, he didn't want Hua Chang to see him like this.
"Don't come over." Qi Mu resisted.
Hua Shang didn't take it to heart. At this moment, Qi Mu was just a patient in front of her.
"Mr. Qi, resisting outside help won't help with claustrophobia."
Qi Mu's pupils shrank sharply, and he held Hua Chang's arm: "How did you know?"
"I've read the relevant information." Hua Shang didn't want to reveal that she knew medical skills.
She wrapped her arms around Qi Mu's and used her own warmth to warm him.
"Try taking a deep breath." Hua Shang guided.
Knowing that Hua Chang had no ill intentions, Qi Mu relaxed a little.
Feeling the warmth in his hands, Qi Mu gradually relaxed and began to regulate his breathing.
Hua Chang's eyes were always on Qi Mu, observing Qi Mu's reaction.
Seeing that he still had trouble adjusting his breathing, Hua Chang thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Qi, I'm sorry for the offense."
After saying that, Hua Chang gently held Qi Mu in her arms and explained, "Hugs have a soothing effect on claustrophobia."
Qi Mu did not resist, but felt complicated.
Did you do this just to appease him?
In the study, Mr. Shen and Bo Zining, who saw this scene, seemed to have won a battle, and the two of them clapped their hands.
Looking at this heartwarming scene, Shen Changmin couldn't bear to ruin it.
But if Hua Chang finds out, she will be caught in their plan...
"I'll go let Shang Shang out." Shen Changmin said and walked out.
Bo Zining pouted, she hadn't seen enough.
Although it was not a good idea to do so, she also wanted to promote the relationship between her mother and the handsome uncle.
Mom is a princess and needs a knight to protect her.
Both she and the handsome uncle can be mom's knights!
"Zining, don't worry. This is just the beginning." Old Master Shen saw that Bo Zining was still unsatisfied and said to comfort her: "Grandpa will help you match your mother and Qi Mu."
"Really?" Bo Zining immediately smiled brightly.
Shen Changmin left the study and quickened his pace until he came to the outside of the monitoring room and opened the door.
"Shangshang, Qi..."
Shen Changmin didn't finish his words. When he saw Hua Shang put her finger to her lips, he fell silent.
Hua Chang let go of Qi Mu and said softly, "Mr. Qi, we can go back now."
Qi Mu raised his eyes, looked over Hua Chang's shoulder and met Shen Changmin's gaze.
Shen Changmin was stunned.
This look... is terribly cold.
"Sorry, I just took a call and when I came back I found the door was locked by the staff."
"Really?" Qi Mu stood up and regained his usual calm and dignity: "I thought this was Mr. Shen's script."
"How is that possible? I did answer the phone." Shen Changmin looked at Hua Shang, his eyes full of nervousness: "Shang Shang, how are you? Did this kid do anything to you?"
