Chapter 397: Chapter 397
Originally, Liu Zhizhong's health report was entirely issued on the afternoon of the fourth day after the check-up.
At this time, Qian Xuan had already been stimulated by the heat surrounding Liu Zhizhong.
He was thinking about the last episode of the Hu Yang Province cultural and tourism publicity film that hadn't been broadcasted yet, which was the most crucial—the Yangzhong chapter.
In the Provincial City, currently at Yangzhong.
In the central part of Hu Yang Province, especially in the Provincial City, too many cultural landscapes and ancient architectural complexes have been agglomerated. At the same time, it's a city that has seen thousands of years of passionate history—a city worthy of grandiose writing.
So, Qian Xuan actually wanted to see the last episode of the Yangzhong chapter!
And on the afternoon when the fifth episode, the Yangzhong chapter was broadcasted, the provincial publicity department even sent a filming crew to look for Liu Zhizhong.
Liu Zhizhong was taken to a room which was arranged to look just like his office in Yangzhou, and he was somewhat surprised himself.
What is this situation?
The other party's filming crew said, "The internet digs up your past every day, saying that you're the City Government Chief Secretary Liu Zhizhong of Yangzhou. We've debunked this, but it hasn't worked well. Today, you can come forward and debunk it yourself."
Liu Zhizhong felt this was really painstaking, yet he also cooperated.
In the rumor debunking, he said with a slightly hoarse voice, "I am not 'Mr. L' the popular voice-over master on the internet, although I would also like to contribute to the province's cultural and tourism activities, my abilities are indeed limited. The Party and the people have given me a heavy responsibility in Yangzhou. Standing my ground is the best contribution I can make. I ask everyone to enjoy the internet culture and tourism life rationally, think rationally, and I wish everyone a happy life and all the best."
This rumor debunking video was passed in one go, perfect.
Liu Zhizhong had too strong a screen presence, and was well-built with a composed demeanor. His voice didn't sound at all like that 'Mr. L.'
Even Zhang Yuxing saw the rumor debunking video afterward, and deep inside, she felt reassured, excited, and proud. She even laughed and cursed, "This damned guy, he's really good at debunking rumors! Ah, when is he coming back? I really am..."
She was talking to herself, yet she was also extremely bashful.
Unable to utter the embarrassing words, but inside she felt restless, and even one part of her was also...
Forget it, hold back, hold it in, just wait until he's back in Yangzhou to talk!
Ah, but was she the only one missing Liu Zhizhong?
Yet, online, there were still people leaving messages on the video debunking the rumors.
"Secretary Liu, could Mr. L be your long-lost brother?"
"Secretary Liu is really handsome, has a great temperament!"
"Being the City Government Chief Secretary so young, do you have support from behind the scenes, or from higher up?"
Ah, netizens, you know. There's always a wide range of comments.
Similarly, some were still speculating whether the new TV drama "County Government Office" promoted by Xinghai Film and Television Media Company, boasting a powerful voice-over, could be 'Mr. L' again?
Of course, this was just speculation. Without official confirmation, it was all rumor.
However, this speculation did reignite some interest in the drama, but that spike of attention was quickly suppressed. The most popular was still the provincial cultural and tourism publicity film.
After the fifth episode of the Yangzhong chapter of the provincial tourism publicity film was broadcasted, Qian Xuan really stayed in front of the big TV to watch it. He felt very moved, very impressed, very nostalgic, and very convinced—and he admired it!
He even felt an urge to see Liu Zhizhong overnight, but this impulse cooled down quickly. Let's meet tomorrow!
Still, Qian Xuan couldn't help it; he made a phone call to Feng Xiaoyue.
Feng Xiaoyue's voice was as discourteous as ever, "What do you want now, loser?" ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⚫𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⚫𝘯𝘦𝘵
"Hehe... the loser misses you, is that not allowed?"
"Miss your mom! Sis is busy here, got no time to shit-talk with you! If you've got something to say, spit it out; if not, get lost!"
"Hey, congratulations, Miss Xiaoyue. The provincial cultural and tourism promotional film totally blew up. You've created an IP worth tens of billions a day!"
"Oh? Are you really congratulating me? Well, listen to me, thank you! You, a good-for-nothing, are actually paying attention to these things?"
Feng Xiaoyue felt a bit puzzled inside, but she didn't think too deeply about it.
"Of course, I'm sincerely congratulating you. After all these years, you still have a place in my heart. But, really, I'm feeling a bit sad now. It seems like you and that Liu what's-his-name, oh, Mr. L, Mr. Roundabout, are getting along quite well. I'm almost green with envy."
"Envy my ass! Cut the crap, I warn you, stop spouting nonsense around me! Liu Zhizhong and I are crystal clear and untainted, don't you dare slander us like that! If you're itching down there, go make some kids with your wife; you're not getting any younger, and after being married for so long, her belly is still empty. Could it be that you're not up to it?"
"Xiaoyue, don't diss me, okay? Look at yourself, married for over a decade and still no son or daughter. Is it your man who can't, or is it you who can't? I think it's him, or else... should I step in and help?"
"Help your mom! Get lost!"
"Liu Zhizhong can also step in for your husband..."
Qian Xuan still wanted to excitedly spit out a few more words when Feng Xiaoyue had already hung up the phone.
Nevertheless, he was quite thrilled, feeling like he had triumphantly teased a virtuous woman. Then, he actually cheerfully started up his electric wheelchair and went to find his butler...
The next morning, Liu Zhizhong had eaten breakfast and guessed it was about time to see Qian Xuan, right?
He tidied up and stood in the garden smoking, waiting for someone to come pick him up.
He hoped it would be Song Zhe, yet he also hoped it wouldn't be.
If Song Zhe came, it would mean that his health check-up data weren't so good.
But if his data were fine, Song Zhe would leave Qian Xuan. The guy was quite interesting!
After one cigarette, Song Zhe's custom-made Audi A8 drove over, and Liu Zhizhong recognized the license plate at a glance.
When he opened the gate and let the car in, the driver who got out wasn't Song Zhe anymore. It was a young lady dressed in fresh attire.
A black blouse paired with a pink and coffee-colored short skirt, her tall and prominent figure, with civilized-looking black rimless glasses, and her black hair was tied into a neat bun giving her a spirited and professional look.
She seemed very young, roughly around twenty-five or twenty-six?
Unreasonably, Liu Zhizhong felt a sinking feeling in his heart.
Damn! The health data must be off the charts, Song Zhe and his brothers have left Qian Xuan.
Subconsciously, he greeted the lady with a smile, "Good morning, beauty. Brother Zhe and the rest have left?"
The lady's expression was stern as she nodded, "Yes, they left early this morning. Today, I'll be the one driving you."
"Okay, thank you. May I ask your name?"
"Shi Jing, 'Shi' as in The Records of the Grand Historian, 'Jing' as in tranquility."
"Alright, Jingjing..."
"You..." Shi Jing felt like she was being teased. She frowned and her eyes emitted a cold glare but then she relaxed her expression and said, "According to the data, you're only 28, whereas I'm 29. You're not in a position to call me Jingjing."
"Oh, I see, that's how it is. It seems you really know how to take care of yourself; you look too young, too beautiful, and too sexy. Alright then, Sister Shi, please, after you!"
Shi Jing didn't say anything further. Surprisingly, she took the initiative to open the car door for Liu Zhizhong, invited him in, then drove him off to meet Qian Xuan…
