After photocopying the documents, Zuo Weiyi sent them to the manager’s office. When doing so, she opened her mouth.
“Manager, the pipe upstairs probably has some problems. The water keeps leaking, the machines are almost soaked through.”
The manager lifted his head from his work and glanced at Zuo Weiyi before frowning slightly. “Is that so? I’ll call the handyman later to fix it.”
“Sure.”
Zuo Weiyi pursed her lips and left.

After working for the whole day, Zuo Weiyi had almost missed the fact to get off work without Gu Yansheng’s reminder.
5:05 PM, she who was bored took out her phone and scrolled through Weibo.
As soon as she opened the application, her attention was caught by a headline.
“Country Z’s tycoon, the CEO of Dizun and the rich bachelor who is loved by all the single ladies, Shi Yuting, was rumored to have had his engagement party in Country Z!”
When she saw the eye-catching title, Zuo Weiyi was stunned. She felt that her heart was hollowed out.
Shi Yuting, engaged?
With Tangteng Xi?
She clicked into the link and unsurprisingly, saw a photo of Shi Yuting and Tangteng Xi. There was not a single thing that was out of place when the two of them were standing together, a perfect couple.
“Weiyi! We’re off work!”
5:31 PM, almost everyone had left the building.
The last office worker saw that Zuo Weiyi did not move and reminded her when they passed by her desk.
Yet, Zuo Weiyi’s attention was all on the news about the engagement, her colleague’s reminder was overheard by her.
All of a sudden, she was the only one in the whole department.
6:00 PM, the sky had darkened.
It was half an hour after her off-work time. The security guard came to patrol the building, locking the door after checking for unlocked doors and windows.
Of course, there were still some workers who were still working overtime.
When the security guard saw that the lights in the Planning Department were still on, they did not think much, only turning around and waited for her to leave so they could come back and lock the doors.
After closing Weibo, Zuo Weiyi raised her gaze and realized everyone had left.
Stars had appeared in the sky as well.
She turned her head and shut down her computer, packing up her stuff.
As she was about to leave the office, a bizarre noise echoed from a quiet place.
Zuo Weiyi stopped in her tracks and frowned.
Listening to the sound intently, she realized it was coming from the photocopy room.
She walked toward the room and saw the soaked machine and plugs, which were buzzing.
Zuo Weiyi entered the room and saw that the circuits were drowning in water. To make things worse, there were sparks flying.
Her eyes widened, the first thought that came to her mind was, ‘Well, this isn’t good.’
Looking at the circuits and machines that were spewing out deadly sparkles, Zuo Weiyi grew anxious. She quickly turned around, wanting to switch off the electricity.
Yet as she turned around, the well-lit office room became pitch black with a “pop!”.
Zuo Weiyi’s heart dropped as she stood in the dark.
Buzz—
Another buzzing sound. Zuo Weiyi turned her head and saw a sparkle spread over the circuits, forming a pattern that was similar to a bolt of lightning. The noise did not make the situation less frightening.
Zuo Weiyi’s heart squeezed tightly, a wave of terror attacking her whole body.
Without a moment of hesitation, Zuo Weiyi ran toward the exit!
