Chapter 475: Chapter 475

Zhang Tianbao had said so much, how could Liu Zhizhong not agree? It would be ridiculous if he didn't.

Right away, Liu Zhizhong agreed, saying he'd definitely rush back to Yangzhou to meet with Brother Tianbao.

Zhang Tianbao was very happy and said, "Great! Tonight, I'll host at my place, just to treat Brother Zhizhong. Do you mind?"

"Haha... sure, no problem, I don't mind at all! Eating at home, how cozy, definitely, definitely..."

After finishing his call with Zhang Tianbao, Liu Zhizhong immediately contacted Shi Jing.

Zhang wanted to meet, and that was a priority.

But the matter of the child also needed to be addressed at Zhang Yuxing's end, that too should be a top priority.

In the Provincial City, the people Liu Zhizhong trusted the most were Shi Jing and Xu Jiao. Among them, the most reliable and sharp was Shi Jing.

Qian Xuan had set them up with Liu Zhizhong, to keep him company when he was in the city, making sure he wasn't lonely, which was really thoughtful.

And Liu Zhizhong also believed that although they worked for Qian Xuan and received salaries from him, with his own abilities, he had both utterly captivated, worshipping him like a god. So, getting Shi Jing to make a trip to the hospital and keep it absolutely confidential shouldn't be a big problem.

Indeed, once Liu Zhizhong got through to Shi Jing, after whispering a few words, Shi Jing immediately said, "Okay, I'll head to the hospital right now. Whatever you need, I'll email to you." Dıscover more novels at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝·𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚·𝔫𝔢𝔱

That straightforward lady, tough in bed and efficient in handling matters, what's not to like?

Liu Zhizhong said, "Thank you, Jingjing, on behalf of my friend!"

"What's there to thank for? But, you're making up friends, right?"

"Uh..." Shi Jing's dry humor caught him off guard, and he laughed, "No friends, absolutely no friends!"

Of course, he meant he wasn't helping a friend. But Shi Jing, hearing his denial, said, "Whether you admit it or not doesn't matter, I'll take care of it. Do you have anything else?"

"You probably have other things, like coming back to the city earlier. Jiao Jiao and I will miss you, and we'll wait for you."

"Oh my..." Liu Zhizhong was humored again and confessed, "Okay, I'll be quick. I miss Jingjing. I miss Jiao Jiao too!"

After hanging up, Liu Zhizhong felt relieved.

Women, once you handle them well, they can handle other matters for you too.

He drove off, not turning back towards Provincial City, but continued towards Yangzhou.

An hour later, Liu Zhizhong exited the highway and decided to first stop at home.

Before reaching home, halfway there, Liu received the documents from Shi Jing.

He pulled over to take a look, and it was indeed very detailed. The list of medical tests required by the hospital, costs, and other details were all clarified. It seemed the expenses weren't too high—around 500,000 for surgical fees and donor service fees, the surrogate fee would be negotiated directly by the parties involved, also around 500,000.

About a million in total, Liu Zhizhong actually had that amount.

Just one million, to let his child with Zhang Yuxing be born safely, without her enduring pregnancy, affecting her work, or impairing her personal life and dignity.

Her health wouldn't be affected, nor her beauty, and their secret lives would continue undisturbed. Ah... wasn't that perfect?

Immediately, Liu Zhizhong forwarded the information to Zhang Yuxing, telling her not to worry about anything; he would handle it all. She just needed to undergo the medical exam.

When Liu Zhizhong got home, Lu Yumei wasn't there, and he didn't know where she was. After putting down his luggage, he received a reply from Zhang Yuxing, "Okay, got it. You're really capable."

Considering that she was still in mourning for her father, Liu decided not to crack any inappropriate jokes.

He replied very formally, "Rest assured, I will be fully responsible for my child and the woman."

"Alright, thank you! That's settled!"

It was then that Liu Zhizhong finally took a shower, washing off the fatigue of driving, and feeling refreshed, called the flower shop in Yangzhou, telling them he wouldn't be picking up the flowers himself and asked if they could deliver them to Finance and Economics College, for Classmate Ma. Of course, he left Ma Qingqing's mobile number.

After sorting all this out, Liu Zhizhong still felt a bit regretful. Tonight's surprise for the young lady was not feasible, but the flowers still had to be sent. So... he would invite her for dinner the next night!

Around that time, it was getting late, so Liu Zhizhong went out to hail a cab and headed to Zhang Tianbao's house for dinner.

It was his first time visiting Zhang Tianbao's home, and he couldn't go empty-handed. Brotherhood was brotherhood, but etiquette was etiquette. In the world of officialdom, these gestures were essential.

Liu Zhizhong brought along a pack of special cigarettes from Qian Xuan and two bottles of special liquor. Going to Brother Bao's house with such gifts was meaningful enough, showing deep respect, heh heh...

Of course, Liu Zhizhong knew that Zhang might wonder about something, but what was there to fear?
