Zhang Yafei pretended to be slightly angry, saying, "If you mention my age again, do you believe I can really make the ejection seat under your butt throw you out"

"What Is there really an ejection seat" Wang Zheng first showed surprise and then said with a faint smile, "I think at this moment, you must regret not installing an ejection seat underneath your seat."

Driving Zhang Yafei turned her face to glare fiercely at Wang Zheng. Her slight frown and mild anger made her even more alluring.

Wang Zheng burst out laughing. The Mercedes-Benz drove away with a very exciting roar, leaving behind Wang Zheng's cheerful laughter that relieved his frustration.

"Actually, I can tell you're longing for care and companionship," Wang Zheng shook his head and smiled, saying, "To be honest, I really don't believe someone, especially a woman, living thousands of miles away from home in a foreign land wouldn’t feel lonely"

Zhang Yafei bit her thin lower lip but didn't speak.

"I used to live abroad for several years," Wang Zheng comfortably leaned back with his hands behind his head.

“During those years, although I had a drive in me to achieve something and did manage some small accomplishments, but on sleepless nights or standing amidst the bustling streets, loneliness would always overwhelm me no matter how much I tried to resist it."

Hearing this, Zhang Yafei’s eyes involuntarily blinked. Still, she remained silent. Yes, all the emotions Wang Zheng described had been experienced by her.

"Even when one is abroad, they wish to share breakfast with the person they love and to return home after work every day to a warm room that isn't cold and empty, sleeping in a comfortable double bed instead of alone." Gazing at the night sky, Wang Zheng's eyes were deep and distant: "Born into such a family where all siblings are incapable fools, even if you suffer委屈or encounter difficulties externally, you can find no one to confide in or rely on. For women, this feeling is particularly heart-wrenching. At such moments, the only thing you can do is squat down and hug yourself."

Squat down, hug yourself.

Zhang Yafeng was mulling over these words as her eyes fluttered more rapidly, a sign of emotional turbulence within her.

Wang Zheng's tone was calm, but the strength behind his words could not be ignored.

"When your family asks you to return and save them, what you feel is mostly helplessness, leading to mechanical actions as if everything should naturally fall on your shoulders."

Zhang Yafeng was driving and showed no visible emotion.

But Wang Zheng had already turned his body and reached out with his right hand to gently place it on her left shoulder.

Zhang Yafeng's body quivered slightly but did not react violently.

"In reality, these are things men should take up. Aren't they" Wang Zheng withdrew his hand softly and said: "Your shoulders shouldn’t bear such burdens."

Zhang Yafeng shook her head with a smile and remarked: "I must say, your words have great persuasiveness, but you haven't explained why I couldn't find someone."

"The answer is simple. Even women who appear strong and independent yearn to be cared for like a child, protected from hardship and pain. If you don't think this way, it just means you haven't realized it." Wang Zheng felt his words were turning sour as he continued: "As the saying goes, I have always longed to be cherished, carefully kept safe, and shielded from suffering, from wandering aimlessly, and from having no one to rely on."

When he reached this point, Wang Zheng secretly criticized himself in his heart. He spat out in disgust: "Sour! So sour! Truly beyond description!"

Before Zhang Yafeng could respond, Wang Zheng continued: "This isn't just about women; men also have the same desire deep down. Every man's heart is pure and innocent like a child. If a woman always feels that her partner is mature and responsible, it means she hasn’t truly entered his soul."

"Your theory could rival those in an emotional advice column," Zhang Yafeng tucked her hair behind her ear with a smile and said: "But I don't think as overly sentimental as you do."

Wang Zheng replied, "You still need someone to care for you. The longer the wait, the stronger your emotions become repressed. When they finally erupt, it could be overwhelming." Wang Zheng continued, "Ultimately, no one has come into your life who can truly open up your heart."

Zhang Yafeng's right foot, which was on the accelerator, twitched slightly. The smoothly driving Mercedes-Benz also emitted a barely noticeable shudder before resuming its normal state.

At this moment, Wang Zheng’s lips curled into an almost imperceptible smile.

After another half hour, the Mercedes-Benz had left Fuzhou city and entered a county-level city within it—Kangyong County.

Fuzhou Province is mostly mountainous, with Kangyong County being entirely surrounded by mountains. The roads were all mountain paths, some sections extremely steep where truck drivers even had to stand while driving downhill so they could see the road ahead.

Anyone who has studied a driver’s license knows that when practicing steep hill parking, one can't see the road below in the initial few meters after starting down a slope. This fills beginners with unease and apprehension; but what about if you couldn’t see any of the road at all Even experienced drivers would have to feel anxious!

And now it was the rainy season, with frequent landslides blocking the road for several days at a time. Just like last year at this time, Fuzhou experienced unprecedented heavy rain, triggering multiple mudslides; some unfortunate vehicles were even swept off cliffs by the surging mud and couldn't be found!

In such an environment, Wang Zheng suddenly felt curious about what would happen next.

It was already 11 PM. On the mountain road, only a few heavily loaded trucks were slowly moving along; there was a streetlight every so often, but due to inadequate supervision by relevant departments on a regular basis, most of them didn't work, making visibility very poor in this section.

Upon arriving here, Wang Zheng couldn't help but recall a phrase that caused his entire body to shiver involuntarily.

A dark and windy night for murder.

"Why did you bring me here" Wang Zheng squinted his eyes as he looked at the cliff nearby, asking.

“Are you scared” Zhang Yafeng laughed. “I’m not even afraid yet.”

"I do feel a bit uneasy," Wang Zheng didn't hide his thoughts, saying. "This isn’t a place for women."

"Who says women can’t come" A look of reminiscence appeared in Zhang Yafeng's eyes.
