Official Son-in-Law and the Beautiful Lady Fragrance Chapter 1140 - 1140

Liu Zhizhong smiled bitterly, shook his head, "How could I ask? If I did, he might think I can't endure hardship, right? Might think I want him to help out a bit!"

Qian Xuan nodded, with a serious face, "Your starting point is right. But from his surveillance of you, it seems the smiling tiger has a lot on his mind."

"It's well-hidden, that's true. On the surface, he's a smiling tiger; secretly, he's an old fox! Last ti, when I drove the Maybach back to the Provincial City, he had soone install surveillance on again, and the result was..."

Liu Zhizhong continued, recounting the surveillance incident that embarrassed Zheng Xitong.

Qian Xuan listened, his expression animated, bursting into laughter, almost hysterically.

Eventually, Qian Xuan laughed until tears ca out, wiping them away, and said, "Good job, Liu Zhizhong. In all these years, I haven't seen the smiling tiger make such a blunder, haha... I'm dying of laughter, I can imagine it vividly in my mind, haha... You did great!"

Liu Zhizhong looked innocent, "Brother, it wasn't , it was Second Miss Xiang's car that had that setup. Who told the smiling tiger to have ill intentions?"

"Alright, alright, it has nothing to do with you, you're innocent. However, I heard the old fox proposed for you to the Second Miss of the Xiang family but was flatly rejected. Is that true?"

Liu Zhizhong smiled, understanding that the Powerful People had spies among each other; it was probably true.

"Yes, that's true. I didn't agree to do it in the first place. After all, I hadn't divorced my wife, and now there's no chance of that. But he insisted, and I had no choice!"

"Hmm... hmm..."

Qian Xuan nodded repeatedly, seeming to be pondering sothing.

After a while, he raised his index finger to the sky, indicating he was about to say sothing important, "After the old fox returned from the Southern trip, your path was already set; you're inevitably going to Shanan."

"Ah? But this... that's quite early! Brother Xuan, you guys... didn't you give any heads-up?"

Liu Zhizhong's little complaint had a bit of grievance, lively and quite humorous.

Qian Xuan chuckled, "Wasn't it because your wife had an accident at the ti? So, it was all kept under wraps! The old County Mayor of Shanan even dragged on for several months before retiring!"

"And then? Do you think this is the smiling tiger's arrangent?"

"Yes! Judging from various sources of information, even if the smiling tiger didn't arrange it, he tacitly approved it. But knowing him, and from what my dad Mr. Qian thinks, it's definitely the smiling tiger's idea. So, it's a bit beyond imagination."

"How so?"

"The Zheng Family and the Southern Xiang Family surely reached so secret agreent! And one of the contents, I fear, includes you. Xiang Wenhua's reaction to your appointnt was pretty indifferent, wasn't it?"

"Uh... well... it really was. At the ti, Xiang Wenhua called , very calm, told to accept my fate and do my job well. At that ti, I found it a bit unusual, being told to accept fate and do my job well, so which one is it?"

Qian Xuan burst out laughing, Liu Zhizhong's humor always hit people's funny bone unintentionally!

Liu Zhizhong then said quite earnestly, "At that ti, I didn't question it, I just said that no matter where I am, I wouldn't just accept fate, I would work even better. But today, after Brother Xuan's words, I feel like there's a big chess ga, and I'm a chess piece?"

"Above is the sky, below is the earth, on the Qiankun Chessboard, between you and , we are all chess pieces, alas..."

Liu Zhizhong: "..."

Baffled, in confusion...
