Chapter 4: Chapter 4: The Battle in the Wilderness As the sun set, the car stopped in a corner not far from the flower shop. Lin Fan, sitting in the driver’s seat with a cigarette in his mouth, watched the unremarkable flower shop. As he pondered how to approach Zhang Caini, a Volkswagen SUV slowly parked in front of the shop. The glass door of the flower shop was immediately pushed open, and a woman in a strappy short skirt, smiling brightly, walked out. This was Zhang Caini, the woman Zhu Defu kept on the side. She was slightly voluptuous but not obese, her round face carrying a seductive charm. Wearing sandals and carrying a LV fragrance bag, she opened the passenger door and got in. Due to the pure black car film, Lin Fan, who was sitting afar, couldn’t confirm if it was Zhu Defu, and this car had also never appeared in the city government courtyard. As the car started, Lin Fan immediately followed it. Although he still hadn’t found a way to approach them, following might provide some new information. Half an hour later, the two cars stopped side by side by a lake in the outskirts. To avoid being noticed, Lin Fan parked at a distance, got out of his car, and walked forward along the dense forest by the lake. Before he reached the front of the car, he heard a woman’s pleasured cries. "Daddy... I was wrong... punish me!" "Daddy... I won’t dare again..." "You are really great..." At this moment, in the dim light and misty drizzle, Lin Fan walked through the dense forest and looked at the SUV parked on a hillside. The car windows were all open, and Zhang Caini was lying on the back seat, her upper body hanging out of the window, enjoying the coolness of the rain on her face, while her magnificent, soft mounds swung like two small sandbags on the door accompanied by the continuous rocking of the vehicle. She tightly grasped her soft chest, her smile carrying a trace of mad murmuring. "What a player!" Lin Fan crouched behind a tree a dozen meters away, shielded by the bushes, unseen by the others, yet he could clearly see all of Zhang Caini’s facial expressions. Her oval face wasn’t entirely striking, but pretty nonetheless, especially her fiery figure coupled with her libertine expressions and bizarre terms of endearment truly matched a woman in her thirties. In this deserted outdoor, she was fully enjoying the release from behind. After a while, the rocking stopped, and just when Lin Fan thought Zhu Defu was too weak, the car door was pushed open, and barefooted Zhang Caini walked out, then turned around, and leaned over between the two back seats, her speech unclear, while her lush, white back faced Lin Fan. Despite the dim light, he could clearly see the hairless abyss that seemed to be calling to him. As Lin Fan felt a flame rising in his lower abdomen again, wanting nothing more than to rush over and fill her void, Zhang Caini’s cries suddenly became tense. "Old Zhu... Old Zhu... Zhu Defu, don’t scare me..." Zhang Caini quickly climbed into the back seat, loudly calling Zhu Defu’s name, her voice growing more urgent as if something had happened inside. Soon after, an anxious Zhang Caini alighted again, holding her phone. "Damn... there’s no signal... Old Zhu... What do I do!" Frantically stomping her bare feet, unclothed, Zhang Caini’s distress signaled something to Lin Fan. Everyone in the department knew Zhu Defu had a heart condition; perhaps the excessive excitement had triggered a heart attack. If that were the case, this might be a godsend opportunity for him. Thus, Lin Fan steeled his heart, stepped out of the woods, but he didn’t approach, considering Zhang Caini wasn’t even dressed. "Beautiful lady, what happened? Do you need help?" "My husband has had a heart attack, didn’t bring his medicine... I can’t even pull him, can you help me?" Seeing Lin Fan, Zhang Caini instinctively covered her lower body and ran to the other side but didn’t refuse his approach, instead, she beckoned him over. As Lin Fan climbed up from the slope, he finally saw Zhu Defu, pantsless, his legs hanging out of the car, lying in the back seat with a painful expression, his right hand clutching his heart, his face already deathly pale. It seemed that the intense exercise was too much for his fragile heart to handle. If this continued, it could lead to death. "I’m going to drive him to the hospital right now." Lin Fan, not one to miss such a rare opportunity, quickly pulled the over 200-pound Zhu Defu back into the car, closed the door, and sat down in the driver’s seat. At that moment, Zhang Caini, who had put on her skirt, climbed into the passenger seat. "Hold tight, I need to drive fast." Lin Fan returned the red lace on the steering wheel to Zhang Caini with his fingers, then started the car. The SUV immediately let out a howling sound and sped off down the road. Along the way, the two briefly exchanged some words, and Zhang Caini learned some basic information about Lin Fan. Upon reaching the hospital, Lin Fan busily helped until Zhu Defu was hooked up to an IV. Only then did Zhang Caini’s worried heart relax, and she naturally showered Lin Fan with gratitude, "If you hadn’t shown up today, Old Zhu would’ve been in big trouble." "I just heard some noises over there and got curious, so I went to have a look. I didn’t expect this to happen. It was just a small effort on my part, no big deal." Lin Fan smiled evasively. His mention of "some noises" instantly made Zhang Caini blush as she guessed that Lin Fan must have been drawn by the sounds of her indiscretion and might have even seen something. However, she didn’t dwell on it too much, as sometimes those things were meant to be seen by others. "How about this, let’s exchange phone numbers and I’ll have Old Zhu treat you to a meal tomorrow." Beamingly, Zhang Caini pulled up WeChat, and after they added each other as friends, Lin Fan finally left the hospital and immediately called Chen Jiayi to tell her about the night’s events. "Who would have thought that even God would give you such an opportunity? You must seize it well." Chen Jiayi was invigorated by his words, "However, Zhu Defu is an old fox. Your sudden appearance there will definitely make him suspicious of whether you were following him or if you were actually there to spy. After all, it’s too much of a coincidence. If this isn’t handled well, it could blow up in your face." "You always think things through. After what you’ve said, I also think Zhang Caini’s expression seemed a bit off." Sure enough, Chen Jiayi’s thoughts were meticulous. With her reminder, Lin Fan also sensed the danger. "In that case, you should start preparing immediately..." Over the phone, Chen Jiayi meticulously explained all the details. After listening to her analysis, Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the Mayor’s Wife’s tactics, far more intricate than any palace drama on TV. "Okay, I’ll start preparing right now." Lin Fan quickly nodded in agreement. "Also, if you manage to handle this situation well, there’s something else you should keep in mind — Zhang Caini. You should know that a woman’s influence is particularly important for a man. You must try to get closer to her." Chen Jiayi’s words made Lin Fan frown slightly, "But she’s Zhu Defu’s mistress. Shouldn’t I keep my distance from her?" "Indeed, you must keep a distance, but it has to be an intimate distance, perhaps even a negative distance." Chen Jiayi scoffed, "Zhu Defu is over fifty years old, and thirty-year-old Zhang Caini is with him just for his power. But some things are more important to women than power. Who doesn’t like a young, handsome man? You have to know how to show your charm. Let her speak well of you more often. Also, I can’t stay at the City Tower anymore. I’ll send you an address later; you can find me there."
