Chapter 602: Chapter 602

Zhang Zhenglong managed to hold back his anger, after all, it's his own elder brother. Sigh...

Then, he said, "Okay, looks like my big brother is doing well, making a big splash. Couldn't settle down after retirement, snatching both money and people, huh? Alright, alright, alright, I'll have to come back once I'm done here. I can guarantee with my hand on my heart, he'll never succeed, not now, not ever!"

Liu Zhizhong quickly expressed his gratitude, and after exchanging a few pleasantries, they hung up the phone.

Liu Zhizhong was still a bit emotional. Damn it, if he had known that Zhang Zhenglong would be so confident, why go through all this trouble?

Of course, the incident with his mother-in-law must have really provoked Zhang Zhenglong, right? Hehe... This is how it is in the mortal world, everything is linked, and missing one element could be disastrous.

Well then, time to sort out Zhang Zhenglong's troubles; with the Xiang family stepping in, there shouldn't be any issues.

Liu Zhizhong then called Xiang Wenhua, but found his phone turned off.

So, Liu Zhizhong crafted a message, outlining the relevant details and requesting Brother Xiang ask Mr. Xiang for a favor in Ningnan Province.

At this point, shamelessness had set in; he didn't hesitate to address him as 'old man'. Truly fitting of Demon Liu!

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Zhang Tianbao and Du Yuesheng arrived with the ambulance, which went directly to the Yangzhou City Hospital. Originally, the ambulance was sent from another hospital in Yangzhou, but facing the Mayor and the head of the city's Organizational Department, the vehicle headed for the City Hospital.

Du Yuesheng immediately called the dean of the City Hospital, instructing him to send their best doctors.

The doctors were off duty and ready to rest, but that wasn't acceptable—they had to come immediately.

If the Zhang family's retired Mayor encountered an issue and the current Mayor's words couldn't sort out the City Hospital, what would that look like? That would be a joke, wouldn't it?

The surgery for Zhang Zhengchang began swiftly, facilitated by the three best doctors in Yangzhou—one urologist and two surgeons.

During the surgery, Du Yuesheng and Zhang Tianbao didn't need to wait outside the door. Waiting outside is for the common people in movies and TV shows.

Powerful people wait directly in the patient's room or, in severe cases, outside the ICU.

As the injured party, Zhang Zhengchang's brother-in-law and Zhang Tianbao went straight to the VIP ward—the best single rooms at Yangzhou City Hospital.

This private room was upgraded during Zhang Zhengchang's tenure as mayor. His father, Zhang Dingkang, had retired from the position of Mayor, grown old, and suffered from a serious illness.

Now this same private room was once occupied by Zhang Dingkang. A three-room suite with a study that doubled as a tea room, it also had a kitchen, not to mention dedicated doctors, nurses, a personal chef, and a maid.

Such private rooms eventually became the standard treatment for sick or retired City Committee members at the standing committee level.

Some City Committee members, heh, would come to recuperate from their 'illnesses' every year, which were often nothing more than chronic conditions.

But the service here was excellent. Not only was the hospital stay fully covered by insurance, but there was also an allowance. Plus, the nurses and maids—well-endowed with both looks and curves—were very compliant when it came to sharing a bed, hehe...

Du Yuesheng and Zhang Tianbao went straight into the private room's study-cum-tea room, sat down, and started smoking and drinking tea while they waited.

Because the attending physician had said, after the surgery, the patient would be brought directly here.

Sitting down, the atmosphere was a bit awkward, considering how embarrassing this situation was for Zhang Zhengchang.

Du Yuesheng sighed heavily several times, taking more than a few deep sips of tea before he finally managed a bitter smile.

Zhang Tianbao could only say, "Come on, Old Du, don't be so depressed. The incident has already happened, and feeling down won't help! Luckily, we brought him here in time. There won't be any risk or problems with the surgery."

"But damn it..." Du Yuesheng was truly frustrated, shaking his head, "He's old, and she's his mother-in-law; this is just... my brother-in-law is being foolish!"

As he spoke, he remembered that Liu Zhizhong had surveillance footage, which made him even more anxious, saying, "We're in for it now. They've got surveillance. If Lu Yumei decides to make an issue of it, do you think my brother-in-law has the upper hand? He doesn't have a leg to stand on!"

Zhang Tianbao nodded seriously, "They haven't called the police yet, but with the surveillance footage in hand, they could blow this up any time." Orıginal content can be found at 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡~𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢~𝙣𝙚𝙩

"Exactly! Now I see that Liu Zhizhong has a good relationship with his mother-in-law, no longer the downtrodden son-in-law he used to be. Lu Yumei is siding with him. Tianbao, brother, do you think, if Lu Yumei supports Liu Zhizhong with the surveillance footage, could they stand firm?"

A smile of helplessness appeared on Zhang Tianbao's solemn face, "This could cost the Old Secretary his life. How could they not stand firm? I'm afraid that in the end..."

Du Yuesheng interrupted, "Exactly, I'm afraid that in the end, my brother-in-law might not only lose his five hundred million, but he could end up owing it to them. Of course, he doesn't have that much money inside the country. But I'm sure of one thing: as long as Lu Yumei stands with Liu Zhizhong, Liu Zhizhong will have completely turned the tables on the Zhang family members!"

"Hmm, at the very least... they'll stay out of each other's way, right? With Liu Zhizhong free to choose his positions in Yangzhou's officialdom..."

"Isn't that so? My brother-in-law's blunder, what a mess... A good hand of cards played so terribly, sigh... What political acumen does he have?"

"Heh, he just couldn't resist his mother-in-law's charms and lost his bottom line, that's all."

"No, he lost his pants, sigh... Old as he is, to still be ."

"It might have something to do with the seafood dinner, that stuff is seriously nutritious, especially the turtle blood tofu."

Du Yuesheng's eyes lit up, he nodded, and then abandoning his complaints, let out a sly laugh, "You're not wrong, that thing's pretty potent. I'm feeling a bit of its effects myself, heh heh..."
