Wife Loving Husband: Husband, spoil me some more!

Chapter 216 Save Me!



Before the phone call

Mu Yuehan was feeling restless. He removed his coat and then untied his tie. He threw them aside in his car. He glared at Li Tao and ordered to increase the speed of the car.

He was going toward the Zhou corporation, to look for her. He was angry at himself for not sending his elite team in the service of Zhou Liying till now.

He was feeling anxious. Cold sweat was flowing down his forehead. "Increase the temperature of the car." He ordered and took a heavy breath.

'Please connect my call this time. Please.' He pleaded to God. He took a deep shaky breath and dialled her number and this time, luckily, the call got connected.

"Hello, Lili. Are you there?" he asked with concern. He was answered by silence. "Hello, Lili, can you hear me?" he yelled, panicky. "Hello, hello, is someone there, please answer me dammit!"

Each passing second of pin-drop silence was crushing his heart. His breathing was laboured and there was clear fear in his eyes.

He clutched the phone tight. "Please, whoever has this phone answer me. Please, I am begging you. I am very worried about the owner." He was all ready to cry if he did not receive any answer.

He was at the edge of his sanity. His fright was killing him inside. He felt concerned for Zhou Liying.

Was she kidnapped and was this her kidnapper who received his call?

Was she in an accident and was this the witness of the accident who was on another side?

Was the phone answered without her knowledge?

Many worst to good scenarios ran in his mind. There were many knots in his stomach and his hand holding his phone was sweaty.

"Han." He heard her faint voice. He took a long deep breath in relief, that she was all right.

"Why did you not speak anything before, damn it?" he yelled. All his anxiety and fear were coming out in the form of angry words. "Hell will you women, were you enjoying my panicky state? Is not answering my call a joke for you? Was this another challenge of you to test me? Did you want to kill me with an anxiety attack?" He roared.

He was feeling furious, "You know what, I was only a minute away from deporting all my guards in search of you. But here you are, playing a joke on me? Tell me, why did you not answer my call? Tell me damm. Why aren't you saying anything?"

He angrily punched against the driver seat in front of him. His eyes were red with anger and worry. He was breathing hard.

He heard her sharp intake of breath, followed by her weak voice, "Han…. save….me…. ah…."

At the same time, they arrived at the Zhou corporation. He rushed inside the company, only to be stopped by Aiden. "What are you doing here?" he narrowed his eyes.

"I should be the one asking you the same." Mu Yuehan yelled. "What are you doing here, standing like a statue when your miss is stuck in an elevator from god knows how long?"

Mu Yuehan ran his hand over his face. He was feeling anxious for her safety. "Immediately prepare for her rescue."

An hour back

On not getting any reply of her calls from Mu Yuehan, Zhou Liying decided to pay him a visit to his company. She wanted to confirm that he was all right. She wanted to calm her anxiously beating heart.

She picked up her bag and made her way to the elevator. She entered in. The elevator was about to reach its destined floor when the elevator stopped because of sudden power break. It turned all dark in the elevator. Its inbuilt battery also failed, making the elevator stuck in the middle.

Terrified, Zhou Liying tried to press the buttons on the elevator. She panicked because of darkness. Many bad dreams related to dark tortured her mind.

'I am strong, I am strong.' She repeated the mantra. She gasped for breath and pressed the buttons of the elevator to no avail. She banged against the door of the elevator but no one was at the said floor to hear her cry for help.

She started to shiver in fear. She searched for her phone in her bag and then pocket. She pulled out her phone from her pocket with much difficulty. Her hands trembled as she unlocked the phone and switched on the flash.

She tried to call someone, anyone, but there was no network on her phone. She felt dejected.

There was fear in her eyes and she was gasping for air. Her shivering body leaned against the cold wall of the elevator. Her heart was beating fast. She feared dark and her fear was now affecting her.

The only noise in the small elevator was of Zhou Liying gasping hard for breath or of her fast-beating heart.

She was having a panic attack and she knew that. Cold sweat was falling down her forehead and she felt cold and alone. She felt weak and pathetic to be caged in this small area with no name of help. No one was coming for her. No one was going to help her.

She was unaware, Mu Yuehan was trying to call her. But because there was no or low network in the elevator, his call was getting disconnected.

When Zhou Liying's phone screen lite up with a call from Mu Yuehan, she felt as if she found heaven. With much difficulty, she answered the call. She was feeling dizzy and fatigued.

By the time she placed the phone on her ear, Mu Yuehan was already yelling at her.

She was feeling short of breath. She wanted to speak but nothing came out from her mouth. Her throat was dry and her lungs were burning. She inhaled a long deep breath and called for him.

She knew, only he was the one who could save her now. Even though, it was a thought of her unconscious mind.

"Han…save…me….lee…. elevator…. fifteen…."

**

After hearing the words of Mu Yuehan, Aiden and his team were immediately in action. They were aware of the power off and it was due to default of fuse. They fixed most of the fuses but to the bad luck of Zhou Liying, the fuse of the elevator in which she was caged was taking some time to repair.

In within a minute, they were able to find the elevator in which Zhou Liying was stuck. She was stuck in between fourteenth and fifteenth floor. Mu Yuehan looked at the elevator from the opened door of fifteenth floor. It was quite a far below from where he stood.

"I am going inside the elevator. I can't wait for you all to repair the fuse or search for some rope." Mu Yuehan declared.

"But mister Mu, it can be dangerous for you to jump and enter in the hanging elevator. Let me go in," Aiden said in a pointed voice.

Mu Yuehan glared at him. "Are you asking me to stay behind when I know Lili is struggling in a small box for breath? I am jumping in the elevator and going inside."

And with that said, Mu Yuehan prepared himself to rescue Zhou Liying.
