That night, on his way back to Shuangxin Courtyard, Liu Zhizhong had already figured out a strategy.
He planned to tell Zuo Xintong that during the six days of the National Day holiday, there were weddings in four provincial cities that required borrowing his Maybach to serve as the main wedding car.
So, under this premise, he wouldn't have ti to deal with the Giant Green Fish. Besides, the weddings were for the children of bigwigs in the Provincial City, and not going would be inappropriate, especially since he's trying to make a living in Hu Yang Province!
With this, Zuo Xintong probably wouldn't make things difficult for him, and wouldn't insist on dealing with the Giant Green Fish over the holidays. At the sa ti, Liu Zhizhong also planned to suggest a way to Zuo Xintong, saying that since she had been in Huayang for so long since coming from Tiandu, it would make sense to return to Tiandu for the National Day holiday to visit family!
This approach was actually quite good, and it ca across naturally.
With their recent interactions, his relationship with Zuo Xintong had eased quite a bit. This woman, after all, had been involved with him before, and he was able to hold onto his dignity and face.
Moreover, recently, Liu Zhizhong had been well-behaved, not making any inappropriate jokes with her or ntioning what had happened between the two of them. He felt that Zuo Xintong was willing to listen to him.
However, when he returned ho, Zuo Xintong had not yet co back. So, Liu Zhizhong started bustling around in the kitchen. Of course, he had to make her a good al so they could discuss things better, right?
If you keep a woman's mouth happy and their stomach satisfied, things get done twice as efficiently!
In the end, just as Liu Zhizhong had prepared the ingredients and was about to start cooking, Zuo Xintong called.
"Hey, Liu Zhizhong, where are you?"
"I'm at ho, just about to cook dinner for you, Mrs. Zuo!"
Yes, Liu Zhizhong has been very well-behaved lately, at most calling her Mrs. Zuo.
"Well, then you can eat by yourself. I won't be coming back for dinner. I'm taking a private jet to Tiandu. Right now, I'm at the airport, and I left the car keys at the VIP area. You can co to get them if you want, or not. In case you need the car for the National Day, just co and get it!"
"Huh? This..."
Liu Zhizhong was taken aback, but then joy filled his heart, "Mayor Zuo, you're going back to Tiandu? Not dealing with the Giant Green Fish anymore?"
He spoke with a tone full of regret, but in reality, he was over the moon.
He was worried, with his wife and mother-in-law, and the kids coming back, how was he supposed to handle a eting with Zuo Xintong! Turns out, Zuo Xintong has sothing to do in Tiandu? Hahaha...
Zuo Xintong sighed, "Ah, what's there to deal with anymore? My duty shift over the National Day is canceled too. Matters in Tiandu need my attention, and I probably won't be back until after the holidays."
"What's the matter? Can you tell ?"
"First, Mayor Bai's grandmother has passed away, and the body will arrive from Germany tomorrow. The whole funeral process is expected to take six days. Second, on the last day of the National Day holiday, there's a wedding banquet in Tiandu that I must attend. So, as for the Giant Green Fish, you can deal with it if you want, or wait until I co back."
Liu Zhizhong was internally ecstatic, his emotions were overflowing, yet he regretted with, "Oh, so that's how it is! Send my condolences to Mayor Bai! Since the Giant Green Fish is ant for us to enjoy together, let's wait until you co back. As for , during the National Day, I have to arrange other things too, a lot of leaders to visit, haha..."
"Yeah, it's a long holiday, so relationships do need maintaining, I understand quite well."
"Thank you, Mayor Zuo, you're so considerate!"
"Get lost..."
