Lian Xinying met with Kim at the hotel after eleven o'clock, then they entered the elevator together.
As they got on the elevator, Kim muttered, "That's really odd, it's just the two of us. Shouldn't there be a lot of guests in such a large hotel?"
Lian Xinying's answer was: "Maybe we just missed the peak of the guest flow."
That answer was terribly wrong.
When they reached the 44th floor, the elevator suddenly malfunctioned!
Of all floors, it just had to be the 44th floor that malfunctioned!
This was going to scare someone to death!
It made Lian Xinying think of the horror novels she read when she was little.
Fortunately, the elevator only stopped at the 44th floor, it didn't plummet!
Kim immediately started crying, and Lian Xinying felt like crying too, but now was not the time for tears.
She had to think of a way to get out quickly!
Otherwise, it was too distressing.
The baby in her belly must have been frightened as well.
The elevator's alarm system was functioning.
