However, just as she was about to realize all of this, she suddenly hit a wall. She suddenly realized that she was actually so lacking. In the face of difficulties, her confidence was destroyed again and again. Xiao Fei had to reflect. The reason why she was where she was today, as well as the leap in her life, was all related to this student called Wang Zheng. If not for him, there would be no Space Transmission Theory, and there would be no everything that she had today. Perhaps she would reach this height many years later, but definitely not now.
In this process, she unknowingly attributed everything to her own perseverance and hard work, but in reality, it was not.
However, the consequences of her conceit were too severe, and there was no turning back. OMG and Little Lucky Star had invested a lot into this project, and Wang Zheng had borrowed money everywhere, using all his connections and resources. If the entire KING company were to go bankrupt, the debt would exceed tens of billions.
When her mind calmed down from the frenzy, it was endless fear.
Xiao Fei could not push the blame to others. From start to finish, it was all her own responsibility. Towards Wang Zheng, she had an indescribable feeling. It was meeting him that had allowed her to realize her dreams, but it had also led to the end of her life.
But she did not regret it. Although life was short, it was a happy one. She did not ask for immortality, but for excitement. Perhaps thinking this way would make her feel better.
Wang Zheng frowned. He could actually sense from Xiao Fei's spiritual fluctuations that she was seeking death!
Clearly, this matter had dealt a heavy blow to Xiao Fei. Very quickly, Wang Zheng understood that Xiao Fei was suffering from the same symptoms as him.
Wang Zheng sat on the side of the bed, holding Xiao Fei's hand. Xiao Fei's body trembled slightly.
"Teacher Xiao Fei, I'll tell you a secret. This is something only the two of us know. You can't tell anyone else, or I won't have the face to live." Wang Zheng said very seriously. "Yan Xiaosu and Ye Zisu don't know about this."
Women's natural gossiping made Xiao Fei open her eyes, and look at Wang Zheng with misty eyes. What secret?
"Actually, this matter made me very conflicted. You know about me and Aina, but due to various circumstances, we broke up. I felt that as a man, I had let her down, but I had no choice. But the most hateful thing was … under certain emotional circumstances, I got together with Meng Tian. I don't know how my feelings for her are, and she left me. I felt that everything was my own fault. I just wanted to escape, leave, and never face it again." Wang Zheng smiled bitterly.
Xiao Fei's eyes gradually widened, "Ah, you're not a virgin anymore?"
Wang Zheng almost spat out. This … couldn't they get the main point!
"Ahem, I was very depressed during that period of time. Zhang Shan scolded me, saying that I was too narcissistic and always wanted to take all the responsibility on myself. I couldn't see the other side of happiness."
When talking to Xiao Fei, there was no need to make it too clear, because Xiao Fei would understand.
He just wanted to tell Xiao Fei that regardless of the success or failure of this project, it was everyone's decision, and everyone had to bear the burden together. Actually, for this project, Wang Zheng's work was very easy, and he threw everything to Xiao Fei to handle. She definitely had to put in more effort, but Xiao Fei took all the responsibility alone, thinking that the failure was all her fault.
Actually, every decision she made, after thinking about it, was supported by everyone. This in itself was their attitude.
"Teacher Xiao Fei, trust is about sharing weal and woe together. Even if the sky falls, there will be someone to hold it up. I know an old man, and he said that what can't destroy us will definitely make us stronger," Wang Zheng said.
Xiao Fei did not say a word, but just held Wang Zheng's hand, as if it was the source of her strength. After a while, she laughed, and the moment her tears turned into a smile, it was the most touching moment of a mature girl.
"Wang Zheng, I realized that you have the potential to be a teacher."
"That's all because Teacher Xiao Fei taught well. Like teacher, like student."
"You're such a sweet talker. I'm afraid that many girls have been deceived by you again!" Xiao Fei said.
Wang Zheng rubbed his nose. He was really an honest and reliable young man.
"Stop rubbing. Sigh, KING Company's situation is really not good. There are many problems with the experiments, and we can't find any leads. Wang Zheng, you have to be mentally prepared, the company might go bankrupt."
Wang Zheng smiled. "I said, where there is a will, there is a will. Even if it goes bankrupt, it's no big deal. Do what you have to do, and the boat will straighten itself out. Besides, isn't there a saying that without destruction, there can be no construction, and there's another saying that there are twists and turns on each peak."
"Alright, alright, stop with the rhetoric … The chances of failure are the highest. The funds you've found … might go down the drain. Besides, I'm not convinced, and want to increase the investment."
Towards the end, Xiao Fei really did not have much confidence. If they stayed where they were, they would definitely die. If they wanted to continue with the experiments, to put it bluntly, they needed money.
Wang Zheng nodded. He naturally knew that even the Old Merchant, who had the backing of the Milky Way Alliance, had met with a Waterloo. It was no surprise that Xiao Fei was facing such difficulties. Perhaps because of the Old Merchant's influence, he had always been supportive of such matters. It was just that funding was indeed a big problem, but everything had a solution.
Once she was deep in thought, Xiao Fei's mood suddenly sank. The knot in her heart had not been untied. This could not go on. Leading such a project required unwavering determination and perseverance. What she was most afraid of was doubting herself, and that would really be a big problem.
"Teacher Xiao Fei, I feel that I'm on the losing end," Wang Zheng suddenly said.
"On the losing end?" Xiao Fei was stunned.
"You also know that the situation now is a little more difficult. You know, people always do things with benefits. As for the funding problem, I'll think of a way to solve it, but can you give me some collateral?"
"Collateral?" Xiao Fei did not know what Wang Zheng wanted. She did not seem to have anything else to pledge. Shares? She did not care at all, but that was definitely not what Wang Zheng wanted.
"I want you. If the project fails, you will be my personal property. That way, even if I am heavily in debt, I will not be on the losing end. If it succeeds, I will earn big, with interest, and this matter will be as if it never happened," Wang Zheng said.
Xiao Fei's face instantly turned red. That "I want you" had a huge impact on Xiao Fei.
"Before the results of the project are out, you are mine, so you have to protect me well. Don't let my precious property suffer any losses. I don't want to end up with nothing!"
She did not know why, but the heavy responsibility on Xiao Fei suddenly disappeared. This was good. In fact, Xiao Fei did not want to admit defeat. She wanted to continue, and not stop until she was dead. But she could not be selfish and bring others to their deaths. She needed a reason, a compensation for others, and this person was Wang Zheng.
Did he want her?
