ling as he watched Wang Zheng's actions, not daring to intervene even once.Wang Zheng glanced at him with pity but did not take action. He wasn't interested enough to take action against a person like...Chapter 78: The First Heart-stirring Incident
Zhang Miaomiao looked at Wang Zheng's dazzling scars and felt an inexplicable pain in her heart, but she also experienced a dizzying sense of awe.
At this moment, she didn't even know the name of the man in front of her.
After tearing the bandage strips, Wang Zheng found several sturdy branches and carefully lifted Zhang Miaomiao's thigh to bind them tightly on both sides with the strips.
Zhang Miaomiao quietly watched him, her eyes flashing with an unknown emotion as she observed his busy movements.
"Hey, what’s your name" Zhang Miaomiao suddenly asked.
Wang Zheng had just finished tying the last knot and replied with a smile: "I'm Wang Zheng."
"Where are you from How old are you Is that pretty girl yesterday your girlfriend" Zhang Miaomiao seemed to ask these questions on impulse, but she realized her question was abrupt only after she asked.
Wang Zheng still smiled and said: "Miss Zhang, are you inquiring about my personal information I’m telling the truth; I am a single diamond bachelor with many women pursuing me. If you don’t hurry up, you’ll miss your chance."
"Hmph, who wants to pursue you I don't even know what you do," Zhang Miaomiao said with her eyelashes curving and smiling brightly.
However, she paused for a moment and then said solemnly: "Actually, when you saw me get into the accident, you could have run to the finish line yourself and asked me for one thousand mu of land later. I would definitely lose the bet and give it to you without hesitation. But now that you’re doing this, you might take on some responsibility."
"One thousand mu of land" Wang Zheng smiled: "If you aren't around anymore, where am I going to get one thousand mu of land from"
Zhang Miaomiao resumed her smile and said: "That’s why I say you’re a good person."
Wang Zheng looked at Zhang Miaomiao's slender leg secured with branches and bandages, sighing as he said: "Miss, actually, I don’t want to be a good guy. Now, I can't carry you on my back; instead, I have to use the princess carry. Luckily, the slope isn't too steep. Do you mind"
Zhang Miaomiao was about to say she didn’t mind when Wang Zheng continued: "If you do mind, then forget it—I’ll just carry you anyway."
Saying this, Wang Zheng bent down immediately and stretched one arm under Zhang Miaomiao's shoulder while the other went around her leg. With just a little effort, Zhang Miaomiao was lifted up as if she weighed nothing.
Since Wang Zheng’s action was too quick, Zhang Miaomiao let out a surprised cry and instinctively used both hands to tightly hold onto Wang Zheng's neck for fear of falling down.
"Miss Zhang, don’t be nervous. My skills in carrying women are excellent," teased Wang Zheng as he carried Zhang Miaomiao up the mountain.
Curling herself on Wang Zheng’s body, she hardly felt any bumps or jolts during their walk; it was smooth and comfortable.
With her face pressed against Wang Zheng's warm chest, Zhang Miaomiao’s heart pounded like a frightened deer. Afraid that this man would notice something unusual about her, Zhang Miaomiao sneakily raised her head to take a look at Wang Zheng. To her surprise, he was looking back at her with an ambiguous smile on his face, causing Zhang Miaomiao's pretty face to turn red all the way down to her neck.
"Ahem, Miss Zhang, can we talk about something" asked Wang Zheng as he looked at the curled-up Zhang Miaomiao in his chest.
"Sure, but you have to promise me one thing."
"Oh What is it"
"Can you not call me Miss Zhang anymore I’ve never liked others calling me that since childhood. Just call me Miaomiao," said Zhang Miaomiao truthfully. She had always disliked being called 'Miss' in such a way, as it felt too ingratiating. Yet now she was asking Wang Zheng to call her Miaomiao—could there be an ulterior motive behind this
"Uh, alright... Miaomiao," said Wang Zheng after some hesitation, though it seemed forced.
“Very good,” Zhang Miaomiao smiled in satisfaction and asked, “Now what did you want to say just now”
Wang Zheng found it even harder to speak: "Can we not wear low-cut tops when going out next time Look at the situation now; I have commendable self-control for not spewing blood."
Zhang Miaomiao lowered her head and her pretty face turned red again.
Because she was being carried by Wang Zheng, her body slightly tilted. Her two pale and soft orbs were slanted towards Wang Zheng’s chest, with a fair amount of skin making direct contact with his bare torso—there wasn’t even any clothing between them!
This made Zhang Miaomiao feel unusually sensitive!
The more embarrassed she felt, the hotter Zhang Miaomiao found a certain part of her becoming due to her close contact with Wang Zheng, as if the heat from his chest had transferred to her.
Zhang Miaomiao was too scared to speak and buried her head in Wang Zheng's chest. After a long while, she whispered, "I won't wear such clothes anymore."
Upon hearing this, Wang Zheng looked at Zhang Miaomiao’s bashful expression and burst out laughing so hard that tears almost streamed down his face.
...
The team leader had already arrived with his men where the guardrail was broken. Looking at the broken guardrail and then at the mist rolling through the dense forest on the slope below, he felt a headache coming on.
"Miss, please don’t be harmed," he silently prayed in his heart.
"Everyone, search immediately; not a minute can be wasted. Don't return until you find Miss Zhang!" The team leader waved and his men began to scale the broken guardrail down the mountain to search for her.
"And what about the guy who was driving that car" The team leader kicked the parked Maybach, asking.
"Captain, from the surveillance footage, it seems that this vehicle’s owner also went down to save Miss Zhang," one of his men reported.
The team leader snorted. "At least he has some sense of responsibility and didn’t just think about saving himself."
Just then, the team leader's phone rang; after looking at the number, a serious expression flashed across his face.
"Yes, yes, I will follow the leadership’s instructions and strictly prevent reckless driving on this highway from now on. We must impose severe penalties without any leniency!"
At that moment, cheers erupted from the forest below the expressway.
The team leader heard them with delight; after hanging up his phone, he didn’t even care about his own image and leaped over the guardrail to join the search party.
In this moment, a bare-chested stranger emerged from the woods surrounded by many searchers carrying Jiangsu’s First Miss.
"He's actually bare-chested" The squadron leader, upon seeing Wang Zheng with an exposed upper body and Zhang Miaomiao looking slightly bashful, began to think disrespectfully.
"This kid didn't do something inappropriate to Miss Zhang in the woods, did he"
However, thankfully it looked like this man had saved Zhang Miaomiao's life, so his career should be safe. Thinking about that, the squadron leader let out a long sigh and looked at Wang Zheng with somewhat softer eyes.
The guy who could drive around in a Mercedes-Maybach with a Beijing license plate was likely from an influential family, someone he couldn't afford to offend.
"Miaomiao got injured; her leg bone might be fractured. We should take her to the hospital for a checkup," Wang Zheng gently laid Zhang Miaomiao on the stretcher of the ambulance and said.
After parting from Wang Zheng's warm body, Zhang Miaomiao actually felt a sense of reluctance.
In over twenty years, this usually cold and heartless woman had never experienced such feelings before.
Wang Zheng affectionately ruffled Zhang Miaomiao’s head, messing up her beautiful hair. She giggled softly with a gentle smile on her face.
The squadron leader was stunned watching all of this; the little guy was too bold to flirt with Jiangsu's top socialite in front of so many people.
However, from this perspective, their relationship seemed quite unusual. But the squadron leader definitely wasn't foolish enough to take Wang Zheng back for questioning about the accident. Not only because of the eye-catching Mercedes-Maybach and its background, but also due to the close relationship between Wang Zheng and Zhang Miaomiao which made him too wary to make any decisions.
Having been in politics for so long, as a proud director-level official, the squadron leader was shrewd. If he couldn't confront it, he could at least avoid it. As long as Miss Zhang was fine, Secretary Zhang wouldn’t have much reason to be angry with him over this matter.
But speaking of which, the squadron leader really wanted to treat this young man to a meal. Given his circumstances and gratitude towards Wang Zheng's help, he should at least do that.
"With this kind of injury, you probably won't be able to get out of bed for one or two months. Take care of yourself properly and don’t drive within half a year," Wang Zheng instructed.
"Okay," Zhang Miaomiao was unusually obedient. If her parents saw their rebellious daughter acting like a well-behaved girl, they would probably be shocked into breaking something.
"Will you come to see me" Zhang Miaomiao looked at Wang Zheng with open anticipation in both her voice and eyes.ang Xiaoci paid two million to help his son settle the matter. The family also did not make a big deal out of it, so the matter went unresolved. As such, Zhang Mingquan didn’t become a rich kid everyo...
