Chapter 121 Freedom with the Wind
Lu Zhenyu's round-the-world trip began four months later, on the third day after she received her international driver's license.
One person plans to drive through ten countries, seventy cities, and three deserts.
Exciting, right? Feng Manman thought so too.
But she felt even more strongly that perhaps on the day of the fire, the girl's body had been possessed by some evil spirit.
This is nothing like the Lu Zhenyu of before; she's so troublesome now, she's practically a monkey.
Suddenly, she went from being the younger sister who was always taken care of and treated with deference to becoming the eldest sister, and I've been worrying about this older sister a lot.
"Have you brought your passport, ID card and a copy, credit card, driver's license, house key, and cash?"
"I've brought everything."
"Where are the spare tire, gasoline, antifreeze, brake fluid, and first-aid kit?"
"Everything is ready."
No, it should be said that Feng Jinzhou prepared everything for her.
Lu Zhenyu hugged the person and said, "Don't worry, my round-the-world trip was planned four months ago and is flawless. There will definitely be no problems."
Feng Manman was still worried. "Why don't you bring my second brother along? I can bring me too."
Lu Zhenyu's expression turned serious, and she pinched her nose. "I've already said I'd see the world alone. Give me a little trust, okay? My little darling."
It wasn't that she didn't trust her; it was that she truly couldn't bear the thought of losing this sister again.
After speaking, a hand covered in black oil reached out from under the car, and with a slight pull of its distinct, strong fingers gripping the edge of the car, it slid out from inside, stood up, clapped its hands, and walked over.
"No problem, let's get ready to go."
Feng Manman winked at the relaxed-looking man a few times, but Lu Zhenyu shoved her head away.
As she approached Feng Jinzhou, the sunlight made her squint her fox-like eyes, which were fluttering with upturned eyelashes.
Feng Jinzhou lightly brushed the dust off his shoulder and looked at the man with a smile, "How about it, scared?"
Lu Zhenyu shook her head. "I'm not afraid."
He leaned back against the hood of the car, arms crossed, his slow, languid posture carrying a hint of nonchalance. "Are you sure you're not taking me?"
Lu Zhenyu, "..."
Seeing the girl immediately frown, he smiled in resignation, revealing white teeth, red lips, and narrowed phoenix eyes, his roguish demeanor tinged with a hint of indulgence.
"Okay~ I won't tease you anymore, but you can't forget what you promised me."
It's just a matter of reporting to him when she arrives at a place and sending a postcard every five days. As long as she's allowed to go out and have fun, anything goes.
Lu Zhenyu patted her chest and said, "I remember it well."
Looking intently at the person, the smile on his lips slowly solidified, and Feng Jinzhou opened his arms.
Lu Zhenyu raised an eyebrow, smiled, and took two steps forward. Just as he was about to pull away to hug her, she smoothly bent over and hugged Feng Manman behind her.
The two girls hugged each other, grinning and showing their white teeth.
"Hey! You didn't expect that, did you? In Zhenzhen's heart, I'm number one. Hehehe, I'll make you so jealous."
Feng Jinzhou watched, his fingertips, brushed by the milky-scented hair, gently rubbed together a couple of times before tucking them into his arm.
He licked his cheek with the tip of his tongue and chuckled ambiguously, "Alright, hurry up and leave. Watching you two cause trouble."
The two of them stuck their tongues out at him in unison.
When things got serious, Lu Zhenyu hugged the two siblings one after the other.
"It's a promise. When I'm done having fun and come back to the capital to find you, you'll tell me about the past. Remember to keep your word."
Releasing the soft, fragrant person from his arms, Feng Jinzhou flicked his finger across her nose. "Do you need to tell me?"
The simple action left Lu Zhenyu stunned.
"Are you spacing out? What are you doing?"
Lu Zhenyu, whose fox-like eyes had been focused, blinked for a moment, then grinned at him, "It's nothing, let's go."
He took two steps, then backed away. Taking advantage of Feng Jinzhou's inattention, he grabbed his two large, bony hands and smeared them all over his face.
Feng Jinzhou stared blankly, dumbfounded.
The girl nodded in satisfaction at her masterpiece, then turned and ran away.
"Manman, remember to help your second brother wash his face!"
Feng Manman laughed so hard she bent over at her second brother's face, which was now covered in graffiti.
I glanced at my reflection in the car window, a black and white stripe, then looked at the girl who was reflected in the mirror and gave me a playful wink.
Taking a deep breath, Feng Jinzhou couldn't help but chuckle as he pulled his arm back.
To fit the theme of traveling the world alone in a car, the girl is dressed as a Western cowboy today.
The orange-brown suede shirt was tucked into high-waisted gray jeans, with two buttons undone at the collar, revealing her fair collarbone and a silver chain.
Her slender waist, barely encircled by a hand, was partially concealed by a cream-colored Stetson felt hat tied around her waist, connecting to her full, peach-shaped buttocks beneath tight jeans.
The man stepped into the driver's seat of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, his hand gripping the frame. With a nimble movement, he deftly slipped into the car in his leather boots, like a nimble little cat.
"Manman, Jinzhou, I'm leaving."
Feng Manman was really worried. "You must be careful and take good care of yourself. Contact me immediately if anything happens."
As the two watched her go, the girl pressed the handbrake and deftly shifted into gear.
The jet-black, gleaming Mercedes-Benz G-Class drove off with an air of nonchalance, but before it had gone five meters, it suddenly slammed on the brakes and came to a stop.
A small head popped out of the driver's side window, its fox-like eyes sparkling, and waved at them, "Friends, until we meet again!"
Feng Jinzhou smiled and said, "Until we meet again."
A mother inexplicably worries when her son travels a thousand miles.
Feng Manman's eyes welled up with tears. "You must take good care of yourself! If you encounter bad people, run for your life, don't worry about the money!"
Trust me~
The G-Wagon started up again, and the next second, a "V" sign popped out of the window, then it gave a playful turn.
Feng Manman burst into laughter through her tears, "How childish!"
Watching the Mercedes drive away in style, she wiped away her mother's tears and looked at Feng Jinzhou, who was standing there with his arms crossed, lost in thought.
"You're still looking at the car even though there's no sign of it anymore? What, you can't bear to part with it?"
The brother and sister, who are five years apart in age, have been bickering since they were little, but surprisingly, the older brother didn't argue back today.
Gone is that narrow-minded disdain in Wen Duo's eyes; Feng Jinzhou snorts with a half-smile, "I do regret it a little; I should have taught her before letting her go."
Feng Manman, "Teach what?"
We've already taught most of the close-quarters combat and boxing techniques over the past few months.
"Use a gun, then," the man said casually.
Feng Manman's eyes widened. "You gave her a gun? Did she know?"
Seeing the person scratching their head, pretending not to hear, and turning to leave, Feng Manman chased after them, cursing...
Lu Zhenyu was unaware that Feng Jinzhou had hidden a revolver in her car until one year when Feng Jinzhou came to "inspect" her during a vacation, at which point she belatedly discovered it.
She really had too much fun these past three years.
Starting in New Zealand in spring, the wheels roll over the cherry blossoms of Kyushu Island, the neon lights of Seoul, cross the Bohai Bay and the Volga River, the wheels carrying grains of Sahara sand, on a cargo ship crossing the Atlantic Ocean, watching dolphins chase the waves, polar bears fight, and penguins in Antarctica move their nests.
Before parting, she kept telling Feng Manman to believe in her, because the girl who was determined to travel the world alone not only had a heart full of courage and sincerity, but also the wisdom and courage to protect herself.
On the desolate grasslands, she is a handsome young man in a domineering outfit; in the romantic and elegant city, she is a red rose in a red dress, blooming in full glory.
Of course, this is also thanks to her having a good teacher.
During those four months, Feng Jinzhou taught her a lot.
Self-defense, close combat, wilderness survival skills, counter-surveillance, survival without tools, ooda cycle instinct, and so on.
Lu Zhenyu couldn't remember who he was, yet she remembered very clearly that this seemingly bad but relaxed major general would be the best teacher in her journey of pursuing freedom.
At that time, the girl was writing postcards to her good teacher and best friend.
A woman in a red chiffon halter dress leaned on the dining table, her waist-length wavy hair swaying gently against her slender waist, which was adorned with a vintage silver chain, as she wielded a pen.
The night was deep, and the gleaming glass windows reflected her perfectly proportioned profile.
The girl had a habit of muttering to herself as she wrote, and then finishing with a bold stroke.
Her beautiful, slender fingers pinched two postcards and stuffed them into an envelope, then casually picked up her gold-woven tote bag and slung it over her pretty off-the-shoulder shoulder.
Her graceful figure swayed as her flowing skirt rustled as she approached the hotel reception. "Hello, could you please mail this for me?"
The receptionist's heart fluttered at the woman's soft Italian accent. She accepted the package with both hands and said, "Okay, ma'am, your total for tonight is 1,300."
Lu Zhenyu reached for her wallet, but couldn't find it. She then looked for it on the cashier's counter.
"Hmm?" Her delicate brows furrowed. "Strange, it was clearly placed..."
"Ma'am, are you looking for your wallet?"
Lu Zhenyu looked at the approaching waiter and nodded.
The waiter handed over the Chanel folding wallet, saying, "A gentleman found it just now. He left you a note and paid your bill as well."
Lu Zhenyu was a little surprised.
Although over the past three years, on average several men have approached her every day to express their affection and ask for her contact information, and it's common for them to invite her for drinks and meals.
Where is he?
"He... just left."
As the waiter looked towards the door, a figure in a wide, brown trench coat was about to push the door open and leave.
The sharp-eyed Lu Zhenyu grabbed the wallet and note, picked up her bag, and chased after them.
"Hello, please wait a moment..."
