two people on stage and said. "If one side deliberately loses, how could I guess that""They won't do that." Han Xingye replied."Why not" Wang Zheng was interested in this answer."To put it simply, bla...Chapter 120 - Delivering the Car!

"Go to hell," Zhang Mingqi blushed and quickly moved away. If she stayed near Wang Zheng any longer, she feared he might devour her.

Nanjing No.301 Hospital

(To avoid any unnecessary sensitive words, Jiangsu has been changed to Nanjiang Province, and Nanjing will be referred to as Jinling. We hope everyone understands this change.)

Zhang Miaomiao was lying on the hospital bed, looking up at the ceiling with nothing but boredom in her eyes. Kai Zi and a few of his buddies were busily slicing apples and peeling oranges for her beside her bed, yet Miss Zhang had no interest in eating any fruit. She stared at them with her beautiful big eyes and asked, "Do you guys think I should call him or not"

Kai Zi said somewhat helplessly, "Miss Big Shot, this is the twentieth time you've asked me today. If you're going to make a phone call, just do it quickly. Otherwise, let me give the call for you. Being hesitant and indecisive isn't your style at all."

The calls that Zhang Miaomiao was contemplating were from Wang Zheng, but she had been repeating this question over and over again these past few days until everyone around her felt like their ears had developed calluses.

"How can I just pick up the phone and make a call It would be too bold for me to call a man," Zhang Miaomiao pouted.

Kai Zi was speechless. He knew Zhang Miaomiao very well since they were close friends, but in his opinion, she was like a tomboy who never wanted or could get married. Yet people do change, and lately Zhang Miaomiao's girlish demeanor had shocked Kai Zi.

"Miss Big Shot, if he likes you, he would have already come to Nanjiang to find you by now. With so much time passed without a single call from him, it’s possible that he has forgotten all about you," Kai Zi said bluntly.

"How could that be Wang Zheng is a senior vice president at Juruo and must surely be very busy every day," another girl named PeiPei interjected to support Zhang Miaomiao. After all, a man like Wang Zheng, who was both rich and handsome (a "tall, wealthy, and handsome" type), could easily win the favor of girls.

"That's right that’s right," Kai Zi pouted: "He is good-looking and has lots of money; his driving skills are excellent. Of course you all like him. Only someone as unappealing as me would not be liked."

After a brief pause, Kai Zi continued in a lecherous manner, “Juruo is the territory of the Shangguan family. Don’t you fear that this handsome young man might catch the eye of Shangguan Shishi, China’s ultimate rich and beautiful girl”

"That is indeed a problem." The Pei Pei frowned and looked contemplative: "Since Shishi is close at hand, it's likely she will have the advantage. Moreover, they say that Shishi is quite attractive and has a high IQ. Could Wang Zheng be interested in her"

"In my opinion, of course he would be interested! How could any man not be interested when there’s an上官詩詩 nearby" Kai Zi took a bite out of the apple in his hand and said with a sneer, "Maybe he is being taken care of by Shishi. Otherwise, how can someone so young become a senior vice president at Jirong"

"You're the one being taken care of! Stop it, all of you, or I'll go crazy," Zhang Miaomiao picked up her pillow and covered her head with it; she didn’t want to hear more chatter from these silly friends.

“Miaomiao, I have a good idea,” Pei Pei said mysteriously.

"What's the good idea What's the good idea" Zhang Miaomiao sat up immediately upon hearing this and became quite enthusiastic.

“Oh my, look at how excited she is.” Kai Zi couldn’t take it anymore.

“Miaomiao, since your foot will be healing soon anyway—your doctor said that you’re recovering quickly and can try walking again after a week—let’s go to the capital once you're better. We’ll find Wang Zheng. What do you think”

"Great idea!" Zhang Miaomiao's eyes lit up, but then she hesitated: "If we take the initiative like this, wouldn’t that be too forward for a lady"

Pei Pei tried to persuade her: “Miaomiao, how often in life do you get a chance at love at first sight If not now, when When we encounter romance, we must take the initiative! I’ve already been thinking about it for you. With such an opportunity, if you don’t seize it, I’ll worry on your behalf!”

Zhang Miaomiao bit her lip and said: "Fine, let me think about it some more."

At the moment, Zhang Miaomiao did not know that her brother Zhang Hongqi had been knocked into intensive care by a single move from Wang Zheng. He was currently lying in Jiangning’s Armed Police General Hospital, staring furiously at the ceiling every day.

Naturally, Governor Zhang Binghao of Nanyang Province was also unaware that his son had been crippled by someone with just one move. The leaders of the Armed Police總隊權衡再三,最終還是冇有敢將張紅旗重傷的訊息告訴省委書記。不過,王錚一招廢掉武警總隊第一格鬥高手,還一槍把另外一名武警精英打成了獨臂大俠,這筆賬,南江武警總隊會好好地和王錚算上一算的。

……

After waiting for so many days, Wang Zheng finally flew to Nanjing early in the morning today to pick up his long-awaited Knight XV. "It’s not easy selling oneself short and selling one’s labor. I can’t wait until it's noon." Wang Zheng yawned as he got off the plane; it was only ten o’clock in the morning, and he couldn’t help but grumble.

I hadn't touched this beast in a while. Wang Zheng loved cars and driving, but he wasn’t picky about them. A rare luxury car like the Knight XV was no different from a Santana in his eyes because Wang’s driving skills were so good that even driving an Alto could make him drift with racing finesse. Besides, what Wang disliked most about this Knight XV was its high fuel consumption. Every time he refueled and saw the rapidly increasing numbers on the meter, he couldn’t help but calculate how many plates of braised meat he had lost.

Moreover, Wang always preferred to stay low-key. If he drove around in a vehicle that looked like an armored car, he would surely be photographed by reporters. For this reason alone, it didn't hurt Wang at all to give away the highly-priced Knight XV.

The most crucial point was that this car wasn’t being given to just anyone but Zhang Miaomiao, the daughter of the Secretary of the Provincial Committee of Nanyang Province. A vehicle investment could bring a huge chunk of prime real estate in return; what's not to like

Furthermore, Wang could vaguely feel Zhang Miaomiao’s fondness for him. To be honest, he didn’t mind this feeling at all since Zhang was a very likable girl. Though she sometimes had a cold and arrogant demeanor, her looks were beautiful, her family background excellent, and beneath that icy facade lay a warm heart—quite a rare trait in girls.

By asking for one thousand mu of prime real estate from her under the pretense of a bet, I've definitely taken advantage. Giving her a Knight XV wouldn’t be much of a loss.

Gazing at the Knight XV that was shining brilliantly in the sunlight with its aviation paintwork, Wang repeatedly admonished himself: "I’m not such a pragmatic person."

But another voice inside his head sneeringly said, “You’re not human when you’re being pragmatic.”

While Zhang Miaomiao was tossing and turning in her sickbed, Pei Pei suddenly ran in with a scream that reached over 120 decibels. Her shrill voice echoed down the corridor, causing people’s hair to stand on end.

"What's wrong How old are you—scaring yourself silly," Zhang Miaomiao frowned as she was also startled by Pei Pei’s scream.

"Miaomiao, guess what I saw downstairs" Pei Pei’s face brimmed with unrestrained excitement.

"What does it have to do with me Not interested," Zhang Miaomiao turned her lips down in disdain.

Ignoring Zhang's attitude, Pei Pei continued excitedly: "It was the Knight XV! Yes, it’s the Knight XV!"

Many girls favored cars with sharp lines and rugged designs. Zhang Miaomiao and Pei Pei both fell into this category. Many people who saw Hummers couldn’t help but be captivated by their aggressive style; they had no resistance to such powerful vehicles. Of course, when those who liked Hummers saw the Knight XV, they immediately surrendered and worshiped the designer.

"What" Zhang Miaomiao disregarded her injured leg and quickly sat up straight, her eyes burning intensely as she asked in an extremely urgent voice: "You mean the Knight XV"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Pei Pei nodded her head vigorously like a chick pecking at rice grains. Usually, they had only seen the luxurious and majestic Knight XV on the internet but never in their wildest dreams did they think they would see one in real life!

A second later, Zhang Miaomiao and Pei Pei simultaneously screamed again, making Kai Zi beside them roll his eyes.

After screaming, Zhang Miaomiao suddenly realized something, exclaiming with astonishment and excitement: "Is it him Is Wang Zheng here"

Pei Pei shook her head and said: "I don’t know who it is either. I just saw the car was the same as on TV, so I immediately ran over to tell you."

The look of anticipation in Zhang Miaomiao’s eyes instantly intensified: "No no, quickly help me get out of bed."

"No can do, Miaomiao. The doctor already said that getting out of bed now will only worsen your condition and affect recovery!"

“I don’t care, bring the wheelchair to me right away!” Zhang Miaomiao said anxiously.

“The doctor is right; you’re not allowed to get out of bed for ten days.”

Zhang Miaomiao wanted to argue but was surprised when Wang Zheng’s figure suddenly appeared behind the door.

"Oh my god, it really is you" Zhang Miaomiao exclaimed in surprise before realizing her lack of decorum. Her pretty face immediately flushed red: "How can it be really you Pei Pei said there's a Knight XV downstairs and I didn’t think it would actually belong to you."

Kai Zi, standing nearby, snorted: “Talk about inviting the devil. Nanjing is indeed eerie.”

Wang Zheng smiled as he placed the fruit basket on the table. "These apples and pears were personally grown by Shishu’s elder brother; I packed half of my trunk with them. Eat more fruits every day to speed up your recovery."

"Okay." Zhang Miaomiao, who didn’t expect Wang Zheng to actually show up, was filled with sweetness: "Did you come here to develop the land in Zhangjiagang"

Women are contradictory creatures. Although she knew deep down that Wang Zheng must have come to see her, Zhang Miaomiao still had to say otherwise, just so she could hear a different answer from him. Women truly are puzzling.rp. However, upon closer inspection, one would notice that both his middle finger and ring finger were missing at the base."What's going on Such a commotion so early in the morning" The man spoke with...
