Chapter 861: Chapter 861

Of course, lying in bed, Liu Zhizhong still sent a message to Lu Yumei.

He still felt quite close to his mother-in-law. After all, this woman understood the officialdom, knew politics, cared about him, and her attitude towards him had improved.

Liu Zhizhong just briefly described the recent changes, especially the matter of recognizing a godfather. He planned to elaborate more once he returned to Yangzhou.

He had a main point: everything prioritizes personal career advancement and the future and peace of the Zhao family. This is the responsibility of the person in charge of the Zhao family, and it must be borne.

How could a responsible man not be admired by women?

After sending the message, Liu Zhizhong went to sleep, believing that Lu Yumei would relay the message to Lu Yuqing. Therefore, there was no need for him to send it separately to Lu Yuqing. Besides, could Zhao Han not know? Hehe... Fınd the newest release on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⚫𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⚫𝘯𝘦𝘵

Lu Yumei saw the message the next day at five-thirty in the morning.

This woman indeed lived a disciplined life, accustomed to going to bed and waking up early, exercising, and maintaining herself. She also kept herself informed about the world by reading books. Therefore, she still held the title of the first beautiful widow in Yangzhou.

Don't be deceived by her previous outbursts towards Liu Zhizhong; she was actually a woman of substance.

However, lately, with Zhao Han at home, Zhao Yan absolutely refused to return to the Zhao family. It was an indisputable fact that Zhao Yan was not her biological daughter. Since the issue had already escalated, why not make a clean break?

Occasionally, Lu Yuqing would come over for a meal. Some relatives and friends of the Zhao family would also come over to eat and play cards, maintaining close interactions.

But despite this, Lu Yumei still felt the house was somewhat cold and quiet.

Without Liu Zhizhong in the Zhao family, Lu Yumei felt lonely. Loneliness is a frightening thing; it can give rise to other things~~~

Especially sometimes, after Lu Yumei solved her own issues, she wasn't left with excitement or comfort, but deeper loss and loneliness. At such times, she thought most about Liu Zhizhong!!!

Dammit, it's too terrifying!!!

She would pull out Liu Zhizhong's works and listen to them over and over again until her whole body felt weak.

However, Liu Zhizhong had retired from the circle and no longer produced works. He had been ill, then recovered, sigh...

Early that morning, when Lu Yumei woke up and saw Liu Zhizhong's message, she felt very gratified, very touched, and a bit worried.

Lu Yumei understood the officialdom and politics, but she never imagined that there were still hidden powerful forces in this world! These powerful local forces could actually exert such influence.

Liu Zhizhong becoming the godson of such powerful people, was this something to celebrate or to scrutinize?

The mother-in-law's heart was uneasy, but she could only wait until Liu Zhizhong returned to Yangzhou to discuss it.

Moreover, it was still early, and she guessed that Liu Zhizhong was still sleeping, so she didn't reply or disturb him.

Liu Zhizhong, on the other hand, slept until seven in the morning, not even his biological clock woke him up.

After waking up, he felt fully refreshed. This bed was really comfortable to sleep in!

After washing up, he quickly went downstairs to have what seemed like a harmonious breakfast with Grandpa Zheng, Mr. Zheng, his godmother, god-sister, and the nanny.

Then, he had a servant of the Zheng family drive him back to his villa in an Audi A8.

Returning to the villa, the first thing he did after putting down his briefcase was to take out that detector and scan around the villa. He had become vigilant and couldn't feel at ease without checking...
