Chapter 281 Because You Have to Protect Me
Su Tianran raised his eyebrows. "If they did it themselves, the matter would be simple. But they wouldn't do such a thing.""Why not""Because Zhang Mingqi wouldn’t," said Su Tianran as he sat down and...Chapter 281 Because You Need to Be Protected
In the executive office of Blue Sea on the落地窗前，張銘琪手持一杯藍山咖啡，美眸凝視著窗外，陷入沉思。
她拿起手機撥打了電話，卻隻聽到那邊傳來悅耳的語音提示——您撥打的電話暫時無人接聽，請稍後再試。
兩個多月過去了，張銘琪真切地感受到王錚可能遇到了什麼意外。以他的性格，絕不會長時間不聯絡任何人。
他那麼出色，似乎冇有任何事能難倒他，怎麼會遇到無法解決的麻煩？
她記得王錚讓她立刻離開日本的情景，以及那條寫有“想你”的簡訊。她每天都翻看無數次這條資訊，並回了許多次，但始終冇有收到回覆。
時間越拖長，張銘琪心中的不安感就越強烈。
她也曾聯絡過上官詩詩和盛霏，但是這兩個女孩也同樣冇有任何關於王錚的訊息，就像石沉大海一般。
張銘琪輕歎一聲，看著窗外的夕陽漸漸落下。
…………
晚上九點了，盛霏還在自己的辦公室裡畫圖。曾經熱鬨非凡的大彆墅現在隻剩下她和上官詩詩兩個人，似乎已經失去了生機。
雖然在畫畫，但她的思緒總不由自主地飄到王錚身上——那個看似不正經的男人，其實有著一顆灑脫隨性、執著無比的心，給人無限的安全感。
兩個月來，他第一次長時間消失不見。隻知道去了島國，但最終結果如何，她們無從得知。
上官詩詩坐在對麵的沙發上，她也不想回到彆墅裡，兩個女孩子住在那樣的地方總是讓人感到不安。對於王錚，她們都發自內心地擔心。
"姐姐，你說王錚會不會出了什麼意外？" 上官詩詩幾次欲言又止，終於還是說出了心中的擔憂。
“應該不會吧，他那麼厲害。” 盛霏有些不自信地說著，可是時間已經過去了這麼久，如果王錚有訊息的話，一定會提前通知她們的。
上官詩詩抱著膝蓋，深深地歎了口氣。她心中既惆悵又心疼這個男人獨自承受了太多太多，不知道為他們擋下了多少危險；而當這個男人麵對危險時，她們卻無能為力。
上官詩詩也曾懇求過自己的父親上官家正幫忙尋找，但這麼久以來，連他都冇有找到任何關於王錚的訊息。上官詩詩的心也隨著時間慢慢沉了下去。
Where is he

"The little one is moving again," Shang Chen, holding his increasingly prominent belly, smiled gently, her expression filled with tenderness.
"It's only been a few months. The fetus shouldn't be moving so soon."
Hé Yán squatted down skeptically and pressed his ear to Shang Chen’s stomach, then his face broke into a blissful smile.
"Little An Ning, you must take good care of yourself. You should know that there's an uncle who is still missing because he went out looking for you."
After saying this, a barely perceptible shadow crossed Hé Yán’s face.
…………
In the northern suburb of Pèi City, Nán Jiāng Province, a pretty girl wearing a red hard hat and carrying a folder walked through a construction site that had just begun work. Her hair was wet with sweat, adding an extra touch to her appearance.
Looking at the plot of land covering six hundred mu and expected to be completed within the year—both Hope Primary School and Junior High School—Níng Xià wiped away her sweat with a satisfied smile. The successful commencement of construction for this school was inseparable from her efforts; she had handled all the initial procedures and engineering contracts herself. Although funding wasn't an issue, and the Nán Jiāng provincial government had opened many green lights, the effort Níng Xià put in still far exceeded what people saw on the surface.
Wáng Zhēng simply gave her a way to realize her dream; then she started running towards it.
Níng Xià didn't know why she needed to work so hard and strive so persistently. Perhaps it was to fulfill her own dreams, or perhaps it was to not disappoint Wáng Zhēng. In any case, the only thing that could be certain was that Níng Xià no longer relied on that man called Xǔ Fàng. No matter how sad or joyful their past experiences were, when she thought back on them, they no longer brought her sorrow. He had once been everything to her; however, now Níng Xià was much stronger. She knew that the man had told her that having the strength to stand firmly on one's feet was eternal and that a powerful heart was what truly mattered. She needed to make her inner world even more robust.
Níng Xià still remembered those words she wrote in her diary after Wáng Zhēng left that night: "In life, there are unexpected warm encounters and an unceasing hope."
Now, she needed to run towards this hope.
With a smile on her face, Níng Xià surveyed the construction site where all of her sweat had been poured; she wore an expression of fulfillment. At this moment, Níng Xià really wanted very much to have dinner with Wáng Zhēng and thank that man for helping her regain confidence, grow up, and become herself again.
Thinking about those words, Níng Xià was filled with renewed energy. She knew no matter when he returned, she couldn't let him down; everything she did, he could see.
He definitely could see it all.
A stubborn smile appeared in Níng Xià’s eyes.

"Are you not going to tell me the real reason"
Wang Zheng recovered faster than expected. After two months, he could already walk without crutches, though the recovery of his tendons was troublesome and the torn meniscus still caused him intermittent pain.
In these past two months, Katie and Wang Zheng had talked about everything under the sun. They shared everything with each other and were難得的默契，每當一個人在說話時，另一個人總是靜靜地聽著，從未有過任何爭論。
Of course, Wang Zheng could now take a shower by himself and didn't have to endure Katie's joyful torture anymore; however, as a result, he had fewer opportunities for nosebleeds, and Katie also stopped teasing him. As such, there was an inexplicable sense of loss in Wang Zheng's heart.
"Do you remember saving a woman who fainted on the street due to a sudden heart attack in Los Angeles"
Katie's eyes showed a hint of recollection.
"I don't remember," Wang Zheng scratched his head and said, "I've done too many good deeds; how can I recall them all."
"You may not remember, but I do." Katie smiled and said, "If it weren't for your timely discovery and treatment with Chinese acupuncture, the woman would have died."
"She is" Wang Zheng's face showed a suspicious expression.
"She might be my mother," Katie said, "the one who raised me."
Wang Zheng couldn't help but roll his eyes. This woman was really something; when she talked about Mars, she said "he could be my father", and now with this woman, she says "she could be my mother"。
Now Wang Zheng even doubted if Katie was German, so meticulous that it went overboard.
However, regarding this matter, Wang Zheng did have a faint recollection.
"Yes, I think I took her to Los Angeles City Hospital in the end," Wang Zheng recalled and said.
"That's right." Upon confirmation, Katie snapped her fingers happily.
Wang Zheng was still puzzled: "But how did you know it was me"
"You told her yourself," Katie laughed and said, "When she woke up, she asked who you were. You then told her your name was Eastern Evil King Wang, and the old lady found this strange, so you also told her another one of your names."
"What was the name again" Wang Zheng couldn't recall all the details at once.
"Leifeng."
"Alright, this is my secondary account." Wang Zheng broke out in a sweat from his former self's actions.
Only later did I hear some things about the Eastern Tyrant King Mars. Based on his description, I believe that you were the one who saved Carey that day."
"Is this why you saved me and took care of me"
"Yes." Katie paused for a moment, looked Wang Zheng straight in the eye, and said earnestly: "Carey is very important to me. She’s the most significant person in my life. By saving her, you also saved me. Therefore, I must repay you, that's all."
Wang Zheng smiled: "Looks like doing good deeds has its rewards after all. But won't the Dark Military Academy have something to say about this"
"No, Qiang Dongsong can’t control me, nor can Mars." Katie walked alongside Wang Zheng and said, "Judging from your appearance, you probably won’t be able to recover to your former peak condition within half a year."
“Won't happen. I heal pretty fast after getting hurt. It may only take a few days before I’m running around again.” Wang Zheng slowly stretched his arms.
"Are there lots of women outside worried about you" Katie asked with a mix of amusement and seriousness.
“Probably,” said Wang Zheng, scratching his nose awkwardly. He knew they were definitely concerned for him but, being in such an isolated place made it hard to move around, so Katie didn’t want to expose their location, hence why she delayed.
Katie also stretched her arms and revealed a breathtaking curve.
"Actually, you’re really quite beautiful," Wang Zheng said with admiration that contained no hint of desire.
“Have you never thought about anything else” Katie blinked her seductive eyes at him.
"I have. But right now, you could throw me out with one hand." Wang Zheng didn’t hesitate to say this: "So I’ll just think on that later."
Katie changed the subject: “Since your body can move freely now and you don't need my help for changing bandages anymore, I'll leave tomorrow. You can stay here alone and recover.”
“No way! Absolutely not!” Wang Zheng immediately waved his hand.
"Why" Katie was very curious about Wang Zheng's answer.ter shooting, but what happened later left him feeling extremely disappointed. His bullets didn’t hit anyone.‘How terrifyingly fast their movement speed is!’ Zhang Hongqi was startled in his heart. He...
