Shutdown



Shutdown

Xu Xi remembered Chen Shuning's words that her family would force her to marry into an alliance, and her heart ached. If she ran into other family members when she returned, would they embarrass her? Xu Xi couldn't help but stand up.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered one more thing, which was the news she knew before her rebirth: the youngest daughter of the Chen Group fell to her death from a high-rise building.

I think it happened recently.

The two of them were together due to various coincidences, and she no longer worked overtime to make money like she did before her rebirth, so she didn't die suddenly. These were all personal reasons, and if she hadn't done that, she could have avoided the incident.

But what if it was someone else who did it? Chen Shuning said she wouldn't do anything extreme, so what would happen?

The news that she committed suicide by jumping off a building before her rebirth was fake news. It might have been homicide.

When this thought came to Xu Xi's mind, she was shocked. But she couldn't help but think about it in this direction.

She turned on her cell phone again and called Chen Shuning.

This time it was turned off.

Xu Xi was stunned for several seconds, and her palms were sweating unconsciously. She didn't know Chen Shuning's current situation, but she was very afraid that something like that would happen again.

Now all that was in his mind was the picture that accompanied the news of the person falling from a building before his rebirth. Although it was blurred, Xu Xi was very scared.

She grabbed her car keys and ran outside. No matter what the result was, she had to go to the rooftop of the Chen Group to take a look. What if it was true? What would she do without Chen Shuning?

Xu Xi drove the car to the front of the Chen Group building as fast as she could and got out of the car quickly. When she got out of the car, she couldn't help but look up at the tall building with infinite fear in her heart. If she fell from such a tall building, she would be smashed to pieces.

She couldn't help but pray in her heart: Chen Shuning, please don't be on top of that.

Xu Xi ran into the building, but was stopped by the security guard at the door. She was extremely anxious, but she had to tell herself that she would not be able to get in by force. Only by communicating smoothly could she have a chance to get in.

She told the security guard she was looking for someone and lied that she had an appointment. The security guard then let her go to the front desk to talk to the front desk staff.

The lady at the front desk asked Xu Xi, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

Xu Xi took a deep breath, her palms sweating with anxiety. "I'm looking for Chen Shuyao. I have an appointment. Please tell her my name is Xu Xi."

She didn't have any contact information for anyone else in Chen Shuning's family, so she could only try this opportunity. It would be good if she could contact Chen Shuyao. If she could contact Chen Shuyao, she should be able to find out where Chen Shuning was.

After the call was answered, fortunately, Chen Shuyao asked her to go upstairs to find her.

Xu Xi followed the directions given by the front desk, got into the elevator, and went to the 28th floor. When she saw Chen Shuyao, she had just emerged from the conference room, accompanied by an assistant. Xu Xi couldn't help but look around for Chen Shuning.

Xu Xi: "Hello."

Chen Shuyao responded briefly, turned around and told the assistant beside her to prepare tea, and then asked Xu Xi to go into her office to talk.

But Xu Xi was anxious. Although she couldn't confirm whether Chen Shuning was on the roof, she was terrified and worried, afraid of missing every second, afraid that Chen Shuning would fall from the roof in the next second. So she didn't want to explain too much, nor did she want to ask if Chen Shuning had come to see her.

She wanted to go directly to the roof.

Xu Xi's eyes were already misty, and her words were a little slurred. She asked softly:

"I, can we go to the rooftop and talk?"

This is Chen's company building, and she has no right to go up there alone.

"Okay." Chen Shuyao nodded. Actually, for her, going to the rooftop might be a better option. If she were in the office, getting ready to leave at this time, her family would occasionally come in, and if they saw Xu Xi, it probably wouldn't be a good idea.

Xu Xi followed Chen Shuyao into the elevator. While waiting to go upstairs, Xu Xi finally couldn't help but ask.

"Shunning told me before that she was coming to see you, and we agreed to go shopping together in the afternoon, but when I called her, she didn't answer, and then she turned off her phone."

Chen Shuyao frowned and looked at Xu Xi. "She came to see me? But I was in a meeting all afternoon and didn't see her."

Xu Xi froze instantly when she heard this answer. If that were the case, then her guess was possible: Chen Shuning might be in danger.

She took a deep breath, her voice trembling. "Then Shu Ning might be in danger..."

Chen Shuyao was confused. Is Chen Shuning in danger? If she's in danger, then what are they doing on the rooftop? Why do they have to go there?

Chen Shuyao had a rough guess in her mind. She turned around and faced Xu Xi. She couldn't help but grab Xu Xi's arm with both hands and shook it vigorously. "Do you know something? Is Shu Ning also up there?"
