Chapter 468: Chapter 473 Endless 1
The light in the elevator flickered a few times. The cramped elevator suddenly plunged into darkness, and then the elevator began abruptly descending…
Gu Qingxin screamed in fright. She tried desperately to calm herself down, recalling the emergency procedures for elevator malfunctions circulating on the Internet. She rushed to the elevator buttons, pressing each floor’s button in turn. Then she bent her legs and pressed her upper body tightly against the elevator wall.
The elevator abruptly shuddered a few times and then stopped. Gu Qingxin let out a sigh of relief. She heard a thump sound next to her. Startled, she nervously called out, “Ming Shang, are you okay?”
Just as she was about to check what was happening, the elevator suddenly began to drop rapidly again. Gu Qingxin quickly pressed herself back against the wall, her body trembling with fear. She didn’t want to die!
The elevator had already risen to over thirty stories. The odds of surviving this free fall were slim.
She regretted now. Regretted not being with her mother yesterday. Even more regretted… not seeing Beiming Han this morning, not even saying goodbye to him.
Thankfully, after descending a certain distance, the elevator got stuck again. The emergency light in the elevator lit up. Gu Qingxin breathed a sigh of relief and looking down, she saw Ming Shang lying in the elevator, his eyes tightly shut.
Gu Qingxin got a big scare. She quickly crouched down and began slapping his face forcefully, “Ming Shang, Ming Shang, wake up! What’s wrong with you?”
Gu Qingxin forced herself to calm down. She checked his pockets, made sure he had no emergency medicine, then quickly unbuttoned the top button of his shirt and started doing chest compressions…
After about three minutes, Ming Shang still showed no reaction. Gu Qingxin could only pinch his nose and perform artificial respiration, then continue chest compressions…
Gu Qingxin was now praying for the rescuers to arrive quickly. She didn’t dare stop pumping, and the elevator was stuffy. Sweat was already appearing on her forehead…
After performing thirty more chest compressions, Ming Shang still had no reaction. Gu Qingxin was losing confidence, fearing that he would not wake up. Just when she was at her wit’s end…
Ming Shang’s eyelashes trembled a few times, and his eyes slowly opened…
Seeing him still unconscious, Gu Qingxin took a deep breath, about to perform artificial respiration a second time. She saw his eyes open, but his gaze was scattered…
“Ming Shang, you’re awake!” Gu Qingxin helped him lean against the elevator wall, asking, “What’s wrong with you? Do you have some sort of condition?”
“You’re the one that’s sick!” Ming Shang couldn’t help but glare at her.
“Got any water?” Ming Shang’s voice faded, revealing his claustrophobia. The severe attacks could lead to unconsciousness, and if not rescued in time, it could be fatal.
Not expecting this stupid-looking girl to know first aid.
Gu Qingxin was angry at his rudeness, but seeing him so weak, she decided to let it slide for now and turned to take out water from her bag.
She unscrewed the lid and brought it to his lips. Ming Shang opened his mouth to take a few sips, saying, “Undo some more of my shirt.”
His chest felt uncomfortably stuffy right now.
Gu Qingxin undid two more buttons for him.
“Have you called for help?” Ming Shang asked.
“You really are stupid!”
“It was to save you! Otherwise, I would have called long ago!” Gu Qingxin glared at him in anger. She had never met such an annoying person before.
