Chapter 581: Chapter 581

Especially Lu Yumei's diagonally draped dress with a slit on the side, made of a silk-cotton blend that was soft yet textured.

The hem fluttered lightly in the river breeze, as if at any moment it might fly away from her body. During its undulations, a pair of alluring, snow-white long legs were exposed under the daylight, so revealing, so lustrous.

Indistinctly, it seemed as if even the roots of her thighs might be exposed, as though if you looked carefully from the front, you could see a view of that particular area.

Plus, with her hands cushioning her head and her snow-white arms bending, revealing delicate armpits. The curve at her chest remained full and rounded, arrogantly unique.

A woman was at her most enchanting.

Liu Zhizhong had thought she was awake, since from the side, it indeed seemed so, as her wavy hair, tossed by the river wind, wildly obscured most of her face.

However, when he walked around to the front, oh, she had fallen asleep in the coolness of the afternoon.

That lovely, enchanting face, with long natural eyelashes slightly curled, a perky nose, accompanied by rosy lips; truly tranquil like a young girl yet with the charm of a mature woman.

Liu Zhizhong felt truly stirred, with some hardly bearable emotions.

Fortunately, he remained composed and quietly fetched a thin silk blanket from the camper, gently covering Lu Yumei's waist and abdomen.

That slender waist and abdomen, with soft and flexible lines, looked as though it had never borne children, well-maintained indeed.

After a thought, Liu Zhizhong silently moved the blanket up a bit, covering the pair of full, arc-shaped breasts.

The deep, white cleavage indeed intoxicated once more. Not to mention, a white gold chain with a blue gem hung in between those valleys. The glowing blue light, against the white backdrop, was fatally seductive…

With that, the blanket covered most of Lu Yumei's torso and even her thighs, so she wouldn't catch cold from lying in the river breeze and her digestion would not be affected.

A man so attentive, so tender!

Lu Yumei slept beautifully, blissfully unaware.

Liu Zhizhong then quietly withdrew and went over to the fishing spot, set up his fishing chair, and sat there enjoying the breeze, smoking a cigarette—a pleasure in itself.

He didn't know how to cast a line, and although he was tempted by the sight of the fish bubbling in the water, he restrained himself.

Soon, he extinguished his cigarette and took out his phone, now fully charged, and sent two WeChat photos to Zhang Tianbao, adding the message, "Brother Tianbao, fresh catch, top quality!"

Zhang Tianbao had a fondness for fishing, which Liu Zhizhong knew.

For most people, Zhang Tianbao might not even reply to their WeChat messages after a casual glance.

As the boss of the City Committee's Organization Department, he was busy with many things.

But Liu Zhizhong's messages, he would definitely review and respond to!

Upon seeing the pictures of the local catfish and the old softshell turtle, Zhang Tianbao became as excited as if he had been injected with adrenaline, and immediately sent back a voice message.

"My goodness, Brother Zhizhong, what's the situation? Where did you catch such country catfish and old softshell turtles? Send me your location! If it's within 500 kilometers, I'll get there today; otherwise, I'll make it tomorrow! Just my luck, I have some free time these next few days. You've been unreachable with your phone turned off, enjoying yourself, huh?"

Officials, after all, have their hobbies. Who doesn't have a hobby? Without hobbies, wouldn't life be dull?

Some love women, some love wealth, some love power, some love calligraphy and paintings, and some love fishing, like Zhang Tianbao.

The violin and fishing—two great joys in Minister Zhang's life!

Hearing Zhang Tianbao's voice, Liu Zhizhong felt very emotional—quite the fishing aficionado!

Of course, he had long known about Zhang Tianbao's passion for fishing and that he had quite the setup, even though he rarely had the time to fish.

Originally, after Zhang Tianbao came to Yangzhou, Liu Zhi had promised to accompany him fishing, but too many things came up, and it kept getting postponed. So, today was perfect, killing two birds with one stone, hehe…

Liu Zhizhong immediately made a phone call, and Zhang Tianbao picked it up almost instantly.

"Haha… Zhizhong, having a good time lately? Where did you get those two catches?"

A fisherman's eagerness is understood by all.

Liu Zhizhong quickly said, "Brother Tianbao, no need to get excited. You know I've been busy with company business lately; it's not as if I had much free time! These two catches, I caught them in Yangjiang, less than 15 kilometers straight from your City Committee Courtyard…"

"Good, send me the location, I must come!"

"Brother Tianbao, no rush, I will definitely send the location. I've freshened up the fishing spot, and I didn't dare to fish anymore; just waiting for you to come over! You won't get catfish during the day, we'll try at night. As for the old softshell turtle, hehe, it's tied to a stake floating out there, all up to luck. However, tonight, we're planning to use these two catches for a banquet, hosting a small group of guests. Could you lend a hand?" Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝕟𝕖𝕥

"A banquet, is it? Sure, what do you need?"

"First, I want you, Brother Tianbao, to be one of the most important guests…"

"Cut it out, what formality? What's the second thing?"

In fact, Zhang Tianbao felt honored and was looking forward to it. Such big local catfish, such a big old softshell turtle!

"Secondly, I was hoping Brother Tianbao could extend invitations to Old Secretary Zhang Zhengchang and Secretary Du Yuesheng on my behalf, could you do that?"

"Hmm…well…" Upon hearing it, Zhang Tianbao was a bit hesitant.
