Madam Li's Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 2179: Chapter 2188: Damn It, I Can’t Reach Her Phone

Si Chen reacted very quickly, pulling him to calm him down a bit, ”Beijue, don’t rush, first let her explain what happened. What if it’s just a misunderstanding?”

”Hurry up and speak,” he said to Qiao Yimo.

If she doesn’t speak soon, he worries Beijue might lose control and choke her first.

Li Beijue’s heart was in turmoil, but he tried his best to control himself and let go of his grip.

Qiao Yimo dared not delay, and despite the discomfort from the collar pressing against her throat, she intermittently explained what she knew, ”Earlier, when I was passing through the hotel lobby, I happened to see Mrs. Li getting into the elevator. Initially, I didn’t think much of it, but because...”

She paused, unsure how to express that at the time she was reminded of President Li’s help this afternoon, and seeing Chi Enen enter the elevator, she hesitated about whether to follow to see if Chi Enen needed any assistance. If she did, she could lend a hand and repay a bit of President Li’s kindness this afternoon.

As a result, while she was hesitating in front of the elevator...

”I was standing in front of the elevator, wanting to use it. But just as I was about to press the elevator button, I suddenly heard a sound from inside, like the elevator wobbling. Then, the floor indicator on the elevator screen paused for a moment and resumed displaying floors. I don’t know why, but I felt something strange at that moment, so I pressed the elevator button. I waited for ten minutes, and the elevator screen showed it stopping at the 2nd floor, then continued to the 3rd, 4th, endlessly without stopping at the first floor.”

”That’s why I suspect Mrs. Li might be in some kind of danger.”

”Because that elevator seemed quite normal, but it just wouldn’t stop on the first floor, and the more it acted that way, the more uneasy I felt.”

Qiao Yimo explained the situation she encountered as calmly as possible, then glanced at the people present, ”I’m just guessing, so...”

Originally, this matter didn’t concern her, and she shouldn’t have been involved.

But considering that President Li had helped her this afternoon, she didn’t want to be ungrateful.

If Mrs. Li is fine and she’s just overthinking, that’s the best outcome.

If Mrs. Li really is in trouble, notifying President Li in time might count as repaying him.

Qiao Yimo told herself this internally, but her hands still clenched tightly into fists out of tension, not realizing her fingernails were digging into her flesh.

She’s afraid.

Afraid on one hand that she’s overthinking, while on the other hand unwilling to see Chi Enen truly in trouble.

The conflict between the instinct to protect herself and the hope for Chi Enen’s safety waged within her, leaving her emotions swinging unpredictably.

Li Beijue heard her out, his expression already darkened to the extreme. Face ashen, he didn’t even glance at the people beside him, pulling out his mobile phone as he walked aside.

Damn it!

Chi Enen...

Chi Enen...

”Beep beep...” The staticky sound of the phone filled the air.

His heart felt like it was tethered by an invisible string, lifted up high. The sensation was as if his heart was terminally ill, unbearably painful.

Finally.

The phone on the other end rang with a tick.

”Chi...”

”Sorry, the user you dialed is temporarily unavailable, we will notify the user via text message later.”

Chi Enen’s phone can’t be reached?

Li Beijue’s neck felt as though someone was squeezing it; he truly couldn’t breathe!
