Chapter 441: Chapter 441

That morning, the surprises weren't just from Luo Yanling.

Zhang Xueyao also extended her care, asking Liu Zhizhong how the injury on his face felt, if it was healing well, and she even asked him to take a picture to show her!

As for this beautiful fan, Liu Zhizhong was determined to win her over, and of course, expressed his thanks by sending her a photo.

No sooner had he dealt with Zhang Xueyao than Zhang Yuxing texted him as well to check on him, asking for a photo too!

Touched by Master of Extinction's concern, how could Demon Liu not be moved, not respond again, saying he felt truly blessed and really wanted to hold her tightly in his arms to thank her thoroughly!

Zhang Yuxing scolded him for being improper again, telling him to rest well for three to five days with his injured face, not to harbor silly thoughts.

That morning's breakfast was made by Lu Yumei.

Without dwelling on the disagreement with her second daughter Zhao Yan from the night before, her mother-in-law was quite happy.

Liu Zhizhong had finally succeeded, and his prospective career looked promising, which made her proud as his mother-in-law.

Without a scumbag son-in-law like Zhang Hongyang, didn't she still have Mr. L as her second son-in-law?

Of course, in Yangzhou, whether in officialdom or among the civility, most people knew that Mr. L was Liu Zhizhong, but the Provincial Propaganda had refuted that rumor, stating he was not!

Anyway, there's a saying about the rumors we've debunked over the years.

Breakfast was exquisite and tasty.

Liu Zhizhong, accompanied by Lu Yumei and Zhao Han, sat together enjoying their breakfast. It felt great. Even better, Zhao Han was draping her legs over his, under the cover of the tablecloth!

Ah, the shameless "Best" and "Silver Woman," life was too cushy.

While eating, Lu Yumei said, "The medicine on your face needs to be applied once in the morning and night, right?"

"Yes! I felt better this morning. It might just take another three to five days to heal completely."

Lu Yumei nodded and glanced at Liu Zhizhong's swollen face, saying, "Since you're on vacation, let's go somewhere to cool off! It's getting hotter by the day; we really need to find a cool place to stay for a couple of days."

"Sure, sure, I'll go too!" Zhao Han was afraid of missing out on any chance to sneak some time with Liu Zhizhong.

After all, Liu Zhizhong would be running between Yangzhou and the Provincial City next.

Liu Zhizhong knew her intentions well and thought it was a good idea since cooling off sounded great!

There and then, Liu Zhizhong said, "That sounds good! How about Shennong Valley? My face is swollen, I'll spend days fishing, and you two can play in the water, look at flowers, and stuff."

Shennong Valley had featured prominently in almost half an episode narrated and explained by Liu Zhizhong, set in Yangnan. This spot was a nearly 5A-level scenic area, with a clever blend of natural beauty and human development.

Come summer, it overflowed with tourists, consistently bursting with business!

After recent promotions by the Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, its fame had spread even wider, and it was rumored that it might actually be elevated to a 5A scenic area soon.

Lu Yumei and Zhao Han had no objections, making it a unanimous decision.

After breakfast, Lu Yumei cleaned up the house. Liu Zhizhong, not needing to go to work, went upstairs to pack their bags.

Zhao Han applied light makeup and sunscreen before stepping out intending to visit her office to arrange some affairs, then return and set off.

However, as Zhao Han reached the yard, not yet in her car, someone was ringing the doorbell.

She walked over and saw, to her surprise, Zhang Hongyang standing outside, sporting a somewhat pot-bellied figure and a serious expression.

This guy had switched to a pair of somewhat profound gray-framed glasses, making him look just like the County Mayor.

Behind him, by the wide roadside at the front gate, next to the green belt, his private luxury Mercedes was also parked.

Zhao Han used the intercom at the entrance and coldly said, "What are you here for? You better leave, you're not welcome here."

Zhang Hongyang replied indifferently, "Wife, not welcome or not, I'm still your husband, you can't get rid of me. Not welcome, but I still have to come! Where is the head of the Zhao family? Please ask him to come out, or would you invite me in?"

Zhao Han was also somewhat frustrated; she and her sister's marriages felt like shared miseries. She wanted a divorce, but her husband's family pressured her; her sister wanted a divorce, but their mother's family pressured her, so there was no escaping it.

Of course, she didn't hope for her sister to get divorced. Liu Zhizhong was such a great man, indeed able to satisfy all kinds of women's desires, alas~~~~~

At that moment, Zhao Han coldly asked, "What do you want with Liu Zhizhong?"

"This is between him and me, but it's also a big issue. Please open the gate, or call him out."

Zhao Han coldly responded, "Call him yourself, I'm busy, need to go to work."

After speaking, she still opened the gate and got in her car to leave.

Zhang Hongyang still smiled and gave her a goodbye gesture, but Zhao Han snorted coldly and sped off.

Zhang Hongyang watched his wife's car disappear into the distance, filled with endless hatred! He was already like that; of course, he still wanted women, it's just that he hardly could anymore.

And here Zhao Han and Liu Zhizhong were staying at her mother's home, damn it... A pair of damn free, fish-in-water, they must have done it last night, right?

Zhao Han looked fresh and rosy that morning, radiant and vibrant, just like a newly married bride, wasn't that fresh and lively?

Zhang Hongyang understood life, even more so, could tell that his wife had been messed around by Liu Zhizhong again, sigh...

However, this issue... Zhang Hongyang couldn't mention it to anyone, not an inch of his pride and dignity! They weren't divorced yet, his wife cheating, he couldn't discuss; divorced or not, he couldn't either, as she'd still be his former wife, his shame!

Now, Zhang Hongyang wasn't as impulsive as before. Indeed, there was someone wise guiding him, and of course, that wise person was his biological father, Luo Tianlin.

It's just that Zhang Hongyang didn't know about the past yet. But he truly listened to Minister Luo's words!

He took a deep breath, walked into the yard, and sat down in the gazebo.

He wouldn't enter the house, he really had no face to do so. After all, his mother-in-law's actions had left him scarred for life. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝔫𝔢𝔱

He called Liu Zhizhong.

Liu Zhizhong was upstairs packing up stuff, and answered the phone, "County Head Zhang, what is it so early in the morning?"

"Come down, I'm in the gazebo, have something to discuss face to face."

"Why not come inside?"

"I…" Zhang Hongyang felt those five words from Liu Zhizhong stab him in the lungs, and said sternly, "Enough with the smart remarks, hurry up and come down!"

This stable emotion, barely stable, ah!

Having spoken, Zhang Hongyang hung up, but scolded himself: Why can't I remain calm? I must hold steady! I can't keep acting like before! Otherwise, I'll eventually lose to this bastard and be utterly defeated!

Liu Zhizhong came downstairs just as Lu Yumei had finished her housework and was about to go upstairs to pack her bags.

Liu Zhizhong casually mentioned, "By the way, County Head Zhang is here, waiting for me in the yard's gazebo, seems like he has something important!"

Oh, as soon as Zhang Hongyang was mentioned, Lu Yumei's temper flared up, haha...
