Chapter 290: Do You Think He Will Come?
Jiang Yuning remained calm and composed while she kept muttering to herself. “Find a knife handle on the chair, find a bucket in the box, and find the key in the basket...”
As time passed by, Vera started to get more and more anxious. “It has already been more than ten minutes. Yuning, have you thought of any solutions yet?”
“Are you already so worried right now?” Jiang Yuning could not help but teased Vera when she saw the anxious expression on her face.
“There is no air, water, nor light in that room...”
Jiang Yuning found a knife blade under an umbrella and she quickly attached it to the handle before she continued searching for more of the hidden hints.
At this time, the the windows on the eighteenth floor were crackling and rumbling as the strong winds blew against it. Of course, this was not a special effect that could be arranged by the production team.
Jiang Yuning was just about to unlock the door when she finally discovered the passcode but at this time, she suddenly heard some screaming and weird noises. The hotel’s electrical circuit system was burned because of the thunderstorm.
“What is happening? What is happening now?” Vera asked as she started to panicked when she saw that the advertisement box had already turned off. Xiao Chennan was still trapped inside the room.
In a short while, some of the hotel crew came running up to the eighteenth floor with a toolbox and some tools in their hands. One of the service crew started unlocking the door using the tool in his hand. “I would like both of you to please stand back. We are going to break the door down.”
“What is happening?”
“We are being hit by a level fifteen typhoon. The movement of this typhoon is extremely unpredictable and out of control. It seems like the typhoon has already hit our island in advance, way beyond our expectations. Therefore, the production team has already decided to end the shooting. After this, you should return to your rooms where you will be safe.” One of the hotel crew members explained the situation to the both of them before they continued working on unlocking the door.
At this time, Jiang Yuning took the opportunity to walk towards the window on the eighteenth floor to take a look at the situation outside. She realized that there was a massive storm outside and that the sea water was already rising rapidly. Fortunately for them, the five star hotel was built on relatively high grounds and would therefore not be flooded despite the rising sea level. In fact, this hotel was currently the most ideal refuge on the island right now.
Very soon, the hotel crew managed to break the door down and Vera quickly followed after the crew as they entered the dark room. Vera could finally heave a huge sigh of relief when she saw that Xiao Chennan was safe and unharmed.
“You guys...resorted to such violent methods?”
Vera rolled her eyes at Xiao Chennan and replied immediately, “Violent my a*s! A level fifteen typhoon has just hit the island. Hurry up and get out of this room now.”
Vera spoke as she lost her temper.
Xiao Chennan could not help but smile before he walked out of the room with Vera. The three of them quickly returned to the lobby to meet up with the rest of the guests.
At this time, the production team and the production crew of were also dumbfounded and lost because this was the first time that they had ever encountered such a situation after filming so many different issues of the program in the past. The island was now on a complete lockdown and all roads leading to the island were already completely blocked. The only way into the island at this moment was through flights.
“Please return to your respective rooms to rest as we wait for the typhoon to pass.”
“What has the production team done this time? Look at what kind of situation you got us into!”
The production crew understood that everyone was in a relatively unstable mood at the moment and therefore, they quickly conveyed the message that had been given to them by the director and the production team to the ten participants. “The variety program is not what matters the most. What is even more important is that each and every one of you is safe. I hope that all of you can comply with the hotel’s arrangements and wait it out patiently for the typhoon to leave. After that, I assure you that we will find a way to get everyone back to Luo City as soon as possible.”
“At least the old bald men seems to have some conscience left in them.”
“Alright then. Please return to your rooms to rest.”
At this time, the hotel had also unblocked the signal for the cell phone reception. However, as the typhoon was too strong and aggressive, everyone’s cell phone was still basically useless as there was no reception at all.
...
It was also raining heavily in Luo City at the moment because of the typhoon that was happening in the neighbouring island.
The entertainment media subsequently released the news that the cast and crew of were all trapped on the island because of the level fifteen typhoon. All the fans and followers of the few celebrities were all worried and distressed as soon as they heard the news.
“Ah! Who is going to save my little fairy?”
“Can Mingming just...let us know that he is alright? We are worried to death right now!”
“What is wrong with the production team? How can they choose such a dangerous location to film the program? Ah! We are so worried about our precious Mingming now.”
“Does anyone have any inside information? Can anyone get in touch with anyone on the island at all? I hope that everyone is safe and sound.”
Within a few minutes, the topic # program group trapped in the five star hotel on island due to typhoon# became the number one trending hot search on the internet.
[The production team is really taking things too far! This is too dangerous. Something bad could have happened to the cast!]
[I hope that everyone is fine. As long as everyone is safe and sound, it is okay even if we don’t get to watch the show.]
[I heard that no one can get in or out of the island now. All the roads are already closed and flooded too.]
[I hope that Jiang Yuning dies early.]
[Is something wrong with that person writing that comment? Why are you so vicious?]
[Oh my gosh. How can some people be so dark and evil?]
[I think that person is just trying to stir up trouble.]
The situation on the Internet was very intense. Later on, Guangdong Media and the respective agencies of the other celebrities had also tried to contact the five star hotel and the production team but to no avail because the communication signals at the island had already been interrupted by the massive typhoon. No one could reach or contact anyone at the island at all.
As soon as Secretary Ho saw the news on the internet, he immediately knocked on Lu Jingzhi’s office door and entered the office although Lu Jingzhi was still in the midst of an important meeting. “Principal, something has happened.”
At this time, there were still other people and officials seated in Lu Jingzhi’s office but Secretary Ho walked directly to Lu Jingzhi before he passed his cell phone over to him.
Everyone who worked there knew that Lu Jingzhi was a workaholic and he had never allowed any personal matters to interfere with his work. However, this time, as soon as Lu Jingzhi looked at the cell phone, he stood up immediately before he said, “We shall continue discussing this matter at another time.”
The other officials were dumbstruck.
“Did anyone notice the wedding ring that the principal was wearing on his ring finger?”
“Was he really wearing one?”
“I wonder which girl is so blessed to marry someone like the principal.”
Outside the office, Lu Jingzhi’s footsteps were extremely fast and Secretary Ho was already struggling to keep up with his pace. “Principal.”
“What is the situation like on the island right now? Is there any way to get into the island?”
“The typhoon is too massive. Everyone is waiting for more news and updates right now,” Secretary Ho answered without any hesitation at all.
Lu Jingzhi pursed his lips tightly together. His brows were tightly knitted together and the expression in his eyes was as sharp as a sword.
This little descendant was always making his heart throb.
“Get a place closest to the island so that we can head there immediately. After that, I want you to make the necessary inquiries so that we can make the arrangements to get Yuning out of the island as soon as possible.”
“I got it,” Secretary Ho replied as he got to work immediately.
This was the most important person in the principal’s life. He could only hope that this d*mn typhoon would go away quickly.
And this rain...
It was too heavy.
...
All the guests in the hotel were gathered in the lobby at this time. The temperature was really low and all of them were freezing as it was really cold due to the heavy rain and the strong winds.
The hotel staff were trying their best to restore the power supply system in the hotel but the typhoon was too strong and there was basically nothing that they could do at all.
“Those old bald men are really too much this time! Now, they are stuck in this situation with us as well,” Jin Mingchen, who had wrapped a quilt tightly around himself, said as he sighed loudly. “I really wonder when this typhoon will stop.”
Jiang Yuning looked at Jin Mingchen with a frown on her face before she said, “Young boy, tell me honestly now. Are you a spy?”
“Spy? What? What are you talking about?” Jin Mingchen could not help but reply with a trembling voice. “Huh? Sister Yuning, what exactly are you talking about? Why don’t I understand what you are trying to say?”
“Sigh. At a time like this, shouldn’t you be wondering if there will be a superhero who will fly over here to come and save us now?” Xu Beishen asked as she rested her head on Jiang Yuning’s shoulder. “Do you think he will come?”
“Who? Who will come?”
Jiang Yuning pushed Jin Mingchen before she continued threatening him. “Come, let’s continue analysing the situation. I need to find out why you are a spy...”
“Director, help! There are spoilers here!”
“D*mn kid.” Jiang Yuning could not help but laugh before she turned around to sneak a peek at Vera and Xiao Chennan.
Alas, this typhoon was not entirely useless at all...
