Seeing that Li Mengyao was still in a daze, Wang Zheng knew that for serious cases, strong medicine was needed.
"Slap! Slap!"
Wang Zheng reached out and lifted her up, then slapped her twice across the face.
Then he grabbed Li Mengyao by the collar, pulled her in front of him, and whispered menacingly in her ear:
"Li Hao's last wish was for me to take you back to Lincheng, and I have now done so. If you think it's unnecessary, I'll let go now, you'll fall and it'll all be over. I'll leave his body in the wilderness..."
"You have three seconds to think it over, 1...3! Time's up!"
Wang Zheng's audacious move of counting from 1 to 3 left the Lincheng officers quite astonished.
At first, they thought the conversation between Wang Zheng and Li Mengyao sounded plausible: the brother risked his life to protect his sister and then entrusted his friend to send her back...
Who knows, this might even lead to a unique kind of relationship.
As for the body Wang Zheng mentioned... although the old man on his back didn't seem to be the girl's brother, and the other person's breathing was deep and strong, it was clear at a glance that he was safe and sound.
But none of that matters. Everyone is curious about such a dramatic situation.
However, when it came to Wang Zheng, the plot took a completely different turn.
As soon as he uttered the word "3," Wang Zheng immediately let go, letting Li Mengyao frantically fall down...
In fact, Li Mengyao woke up the moment Wang Zheng hit her, but she didn't react immediately. However, Wang Zheng didn't give her any time to react and threw her down from mid-air.
The action was so decisive that even the mentally awakened beings nearby didn't have time to react.
Seeing the person fall, they changed their previous spectator mentality and became wary of Wang Zheng. Then, the others immediately jumped down to rescue the person.
After observing the other party's speed, Wang Zheng silently counted to five in his mind.
"5...4...3...2...1!"
As the countdown ended, Chi Yun spiraled down, breaking free from the encirclement and scooping Li Mengyao up before the officers could react.
Several soldiers who arrived shortly afterward immediately caught up with Wang Zheng, surrounded him, and issued him a warning.
"Lieutenant Wang Zheng, please don't joke around with your personal safety. If you do anything similar again, we will have no choice but to stop you by force!"
Although a warning had been issued, they did not intend to take the person away at this time, perhaps still suspecting that Wang Zheng had some kind of conspiracy.
However, judging from their speed just now, they should at least know that they have absolutely no advantage over Wang Zheng in terms of flight speed alone.
If Wang Zheng really had any ulterior motives, he would have run away long ago.
However, due to their duties and professional ethics as soldiers, they still need to maintain this level of vigilance at all times.
Wang Zheng knew they were right, so he didn't argue with them and just nodded silently.
He was well aware of the safety risks involved.
Firstly, he didn't have enough time to slowly persuade Li Mengyao. They were not related by blood, and whether she was good or bad in the future was none of his business. He didn't want to waste his time on her.
Secondly, as a prominent entrepreneur in Lincheng, Wang Zheng did not believe that these patrol soldiers, whose highest rank was only captain, could know the Li family's real address.
This is one of the reasons why Wang Zheng didn't ask them for directions.
Whether Li Mengyao cooperates or not is not within Wang Zheng's consideration.
If he hadn't been carrying Li Hao's body, and Wang Zheng was worried that leaving him and Li Mengyao on the street would cause a bigger commotion and make the officers even more nervous, he would have left long ago.
Looking at the cautious and wary expressions of the officers in front of him, Wang Zheng sighed inwardly.
'Even if I wanted to give them the person now, they probably wouldn't let me go, so I have no choice but to go all the way down this path...'
As Wang Zheng increased the pressure of his grip, Li Mengyao, who had been pulled up by Wang Zheng, was still struggling wildly. However, when she realized that a pair of strong hands were gripping her collar and tightening their grip, she gradually calmed down.
The scars on her face had already healed automatically under Wang Zheng's holy light spell. Although the girl's eyes were filled with tears, they were clearly more radiant than before.
It was obvious that under Wang Zheng's forceful treatment method, she recovered...
After a while, Li Mengyao had fully recovered her senses. Feeling the fear of her feet being suspended in mid-air, she clung tightly to Wang Zheng's arm with both hands, and then carefully stretched out her toes, trying to step back onto the Crimson Cloud.
Wang Zheng saw her movement, grabbed her and pulled her back, then said coldly with a stern face, "Give me directions!"
Li Mengyao was startled by the shout. She glanced cautiously at Wang Zheng and then pointed to a quiet and secluded area in the east of the city.
This honest and obedient demeanor is a stark contrast to the mischievous and willful nature of our first meeting; they seem like completely different people now.
This discovery made Wang Zheng exclaim in his heart: I really am a miracle doctor!
