The Zheng family's dinner was exquisite, the food top-notch, the wine high-end, and the atmosphere harmonious.
Everyone was polite, exchanging drinks and having pleasant interactions.
In front of the "smiling tiger" Zheng Xitong, Liu Zhizhong didn't joke around much, but he handled the situation well, appearing calm and composed, giving off a mature vibe despite his youth.
During the al, Old Mr. Zheng personally gave Liu Zhizhong a gift: the ownership of the luxury villa worth 50 million that Liu Zhizhong was currently living in. With the Zheng family's arrangent, the property deed was finalized, and it was in Liu Zhizhong's na.
The villa itself, situated in the Provincial City, was on pri land where property prices were consistently high, surrounded by excellent anities. It was a symbol of wealth, and many high-ranking officials lived in that villa area. However, it offered great privacy.
Liu Zhizhong initially wanted to refuse the gift, feeling it was too much to accept, but he couldn't withstand the insistence of the influential Mr. Zheng, along with the persuasion from Zheng's son, daughter-in-law, granddaughter, and grandson-in-law. Ultimately, Liu Zhizhong had no choice but to accept it.
Well, he didn't hope for such a gift in the first place, but when it's being insisted upon, what can you do?
He supposed this villa now officially made him a hoowner in the Provincial City.
For this, Liu Zhizhong had to drink more with Old Mr. Zheng to express his gratitude.
Everyone was full and satisfied, but not overly drunk, as the Old Maotai, though aromatic, had a lower alcohol content.
However, Old Mr. Zheng looked sowhat drunk and was escorted back to his room by the servants to rest early.
Mrs. Zheng, anwhile, took her daughter and accompanied her widowed daughter-in-law back to the Feng Family to discuss so matters.
With just Zheng Xitong left in the house, he invited Liu Zhizhong for a stroll in the garden to chat.
Liu Zhizhong sensed this was the ti for serious business, so he gladly agreed.
By then, the show "County Governnt Office," which Liu Zhizhong voiced, was having its hot debut, with viewership ratings skyrocketing, and Mr. L once again gaining massive online traffic.
Of course, Zhang Hongyang was the talk of the town again. This young County Mayor seed to have a limitless future. Alas, who knew he was Luo Tianlin's son, receiving special treatnt, which seed justified.
Luo Tianlin always feared that Zhang Hongyang and Liu Zhizhong would clash, so he had warned his son Zhang Tianbao to keep an eye on Zhang Hongyang to prevent him from going too far and to avoid conflicts with Liu Zhizhong. Sotis, in private, Luo Tianlin even wished his son had Liu Zhizhong's brilliance so he wouldn't have to worry so much.
Zhang Zhengchang also treated Zhang Hongyang like his own son and had prepped him to avoid conflicts with Liu Zhizhong proactively. Liu Zhizhong had promised Zhang Zhengchang he would try not to clash with Zhang Hongyang, each going their own way.
Under the beautiful moonlight and starlight, Liu Zhizhong accompanied Zheng Xitong in the luxurious estate, enjoying the tranquillity of the countryside estate, the fragrant flowers and cool breeze, feeling truly at ease.
Zheng Xitong chatted about anything and everything, and Liu Zhizhong naturally responded.
Near the pond in the estate, in a beautiful antique pavilion, the servants had already set up chilled beer and exquisite snacks.
Zheng Xitong led Liu Zhizhong over, sat down with a smile, "Co, let's have another night beer, shall we?"
Liu Zhizhong smiled slightly, "Since Third Uncle has such a request, and it's all set up already, let's not discuss it further; let's just enjoy it with Third Uncle."
"Haha... you really know how to talk, kid!"
Just then, Zhang Hongyang, with terrible timing, called Liu Zhizhong...
