Official Son-in-Law and the Beautiful Lady Fragrance Chapter 436: 436 is not negotiable

"The past is the past, and now is now; everything in the world develops and changes. Didn't you learn that in your philosophy class? He is my son-in-law, and he has brought honor to our family; how could I not protect him? He's your husband, and he's brought honor to you too, becoming ever more outstanding. How could I not protect him?"

"Oh, Mom..."

"Enough! Second Daughter, just tell , are you coming back or not? If you're not coming ho tonight, I'll go straight to the district governnt..."

"Alright, alright, Mom, enough already, I'll co back, okay?

Zhao Yan surrendered; she really couldn't handle her mother.

She knew all too well her mother's temperant; she really could say sothing and then do it. Sigh...

Only then did Lu Yui end the call, proudly saying, "This little brat, can't I handle her?

Around the corner of the stairs, Liu Zhizhong was on the verge of laughing fits.

Ah, my wife, truly every 'Jack' has his 'Jill,' a perfect match, hehe...

And why did his heart still feel so sweet?

Having a mother-in-law to back him up felt fantastic!

Shortly after, Liu Zhizhong put down his briefcase, changed his clothes, and ca downstairs.

At that ti, Zhao Han and Lu Yui were busy together in the kitchen!

Liu Zhizhong sat down in the living room, browsing the news on his phone, waiting for his wife.

Before long, Lu Yuqing and Zhao Yan entered the door together.

Of course, Lu Yui would invite her sister to join them for dinner. And Zhao Yan just happened to run into her aunt at the entrance of the villa complex, so she ca back with her.

The mont they returned and saw Liu Zhizhong's swollen and unsightly face, both were shocked, but their reactions were quite different.

Zhao Yan took one look at Liu Zhizhong and remained indifferently cool, still harboring so resentnt! For his sake, she had been berated by her mother.

Without a word, Zhao Yan directly went upstairs. Liu Zhizhong thought about calling out to her but decided against it.

Lu Yuqing, on the other hand, felt concerned, and after Zhao Yan went up the stairs, she asked, "Zhizhong, what happened to your face? Who hit you?"

Her concern was routine, and while she tried not to make a big deal out of her emotions, her heart genuinely ached.

Liu Zhizhong could only respond, "It's nothing. I just upset Mayor Zhang during a work report, which was too much to bear. But I've bought so dicine and applied it; it's all good now."

Lu Yuqing held so disdain for Zhang Yuxing in her heart and said, "No matter how upset one is, surely it shouldn't co to this. Is that really how a mayor behaves?"

"Auntie, it's nothing! You know how people from the Zhang Family in Yangzhou conduct themselves. But last ti, she also helped you, right?" Liu Zhizhong lowered his voice quite a bit, "Mayor Zhang has apologized to your man and promised that I could return to work after recovering, considering it a few days of vacation. What else can we do, right? Dwelling on it will only cause more trouble! I just need to recover from the injury, and it's best to avoid vigorous exercises; you must hold back a bit!"

Lu Yuqing blushed, glared at him lightly, then glanced toward the kitchen before deciding not to say more and went to greet Lu Yui and Zhao Han.

During dinner, the Lu Family Sisters and Zhao Han were all quite amiable toward Liu Zhizhong, but Zhao Yan was sowhat aloof.

Liu Zhizhong was accustod to his cold and glamorous goddess of a wife.

The two barely exchanged a word, creating a sowhat strange atmosphere at the table.

Midway through dinner, Lu Yui couldn't take it anymore and slamd down her chopsticks, demanding, "Zhao Yan, Liu Zhizhong, what exactly do you plan to do with your issues?"

Liu Zhizhong looked up, forcing a wry smile, but before he could speak, Zhao Yan replied, "What else can we do but divorce?"

"Divorce, divorce, divorce, you stubborn girl, that's all you think about! Before, when Liu Zhizhong was underachieving, and hopeless, divorcing would've made sense..."

Liu Zhizhong felt awkward!

"But now, he's made sothing of himself, gained abilities, beco Mr. Billionaire, and even got connected with Minister Luo from the provincial organization departnt, and you still want a divorce? Have you gone mad or is sothing seriously wrong with your brain?"

Zhao Yan was taken aback and then turned to give Liu Zhizhong a serious look, "You've connected with Minister Luo Tianlin?"

Liu Zhizhong could only smile and say, "Let's just say I have. Minister Luo is very supportive of my developnt."

"Then we still need to get a divorce, no discussion!"
