Chapter 2379 - 2379

"Ah, cousin, what are you talking about? You're just talking nonsense! Me, him, Liu Zhizhong, how could this happen? You..."

Lu Jie appeared flustered, as if her affair was suddenly exposed, it was quite funny.

Zhang Xiaoyang chuckled, thinking his cousin's embarrassed look amusing him secretly.

He said, "Alright, alright, cousin, I'm just saying this for your sake, just seriously discussing. Since you say that, I'm relieved, hehe... It's getting late, you rest well, hehe..."

After hanging up, Zhang Xiaoyang still felt comfortable.

Liu Zhizhong, no woman is allowed to be good to you by me.

As for Lu Jie, she felt a bit lost.

On one side was a man she secretly liked; on the other were her own vital interests!

Was Zhang Xiaoyang's words not clear enough?

If she were to get involved with Liu Zhizhong, she would lose the protection of the Zhang Family's influence, what future would there be in office? Liu Zhizhong might not have it, nor would she.

But thinking of this outstanding man, being pressured and tormented by Zhang Xiaoyang like this, she felt really uncomfortable, sigh...

What should she do?

She didn't know.

A bit confused, eh~~~~

Zhang Xiaoyang didn't consider his cousin's feelings, he just wanted to feel good himself.

He then contacted Secretary Luo of the Southeast City Committee, sent a WeChat message, of course mentioning the incident of Du Shali appearing in Liu Zhi's viral video, even mentioning the issue of the eight million.

He hinted: Liu Zhizhong, this guy, young and handsome, quite exceptional, so many women are fascinated by him! Secretary Luo, there are some things, I dare not speak randomly, dare not say much, you understand, hehe...

At this moment, it was really late at night, Secretary Luo didn't see the WeChat, already went to sleep early.

Without a reply, Zhang Xiaoyang didn't mind, regardless of if there was a reply or not, the important thing was the secretary knew about this matter, hehe... Liu Zhizhong, don't think you're still in young cadre training, what if Secretary Luo comes up with a way to cancel your training? Hahaha...

Speaking of Zhang Xiaoyang, this kid's tactics in maneuvering are not lacking.

Such a person, if you call him extremely treacherous and evil, he doesn't really fit the description.

Though what he does can indeed be quite disgusting.

As for Secretary Luo, he handled matters differently.

Around five in the morning the next day, he woke up.

Checked his phone, good heavens, Zhang Xiaoyang's information was really freaking explosive, enough to raise his blood pressure.

However, Secretary Luo is no ordinary person, after all, he's a Mayor! Therefore, he didn't reply to Zhang Xiaoyang, as no reply would be good.

He merely deleted Zhang Xiaoyang's message, then upon arriving at work, instructed his secretary, had the secretary handle the matter.

Simple enough, send someone to the Provincial City, discreetly observe if there's actually anything between Liu Zhizhong and Du Shali? Particularly to make sure to observe secretly, avoid alerting the two, and have the results reported honestly.

See, Secretary Luo does have some style in doing things, right?

Though his blood pressure rose, he was not angry, very orderly.

In the week that followed, sigh, Liu Zhizhong, for the team's tasks, worked late nights non-stop, always working overtime. During the day, the training was also busy.

He really had no interactions with Du Shali, at most they greeted each other, nodded, and that was it.

In officialdom, maintaining distance from women is crucial, especially with women who belong to officialdom and especially when they are attractive women, this is Liu Zhizhong's realization.

Therefore, he was practicing this realization.

Keeping distance, to avoid major mistakes, to avoid providing leverage for others!

For men in officialdom, safety is first, all aspects need to be this way!

A good Liu Zhizhong, indeed attracts women yet remains independent, quite uniquely stylish.

Naturally, Secretary Luo received the reports, which were truthful. Though Du Shali appeared in Liu Zhi's video, and they had camped together, yet theirs was truly a shallow acquaintance, plus the camping was Zhang Xiaoyang who organized it.

So, Secretary Luo was pleased upon receiving the results, smiling with satisfaction.

He didn't reply to Zhang Xiaoyang or say anything to him, just felt both his lover and Liu Zhizhong were reliable, a good comrade indeed!

Let the matter pass as though nothing ever happened.

On this week's Friday, the team's general meeting was set at 3 PM sharp.

When team leader Zhang Xiaoyang was summarizing, suddenly two men dressed in formal work uniforms knocked and entered.

And, leading them was another Vice Principal.

Upon entering, the Vice Principal interrupted the meeting summary, directly addressed Liu Zhizhong: "Comrade Zhizhong, the two comrades from the Provincial Disciplinary Committee want to have a word with you. Please go with them immediately!"

Immediately, the whole class was abuzz.

Though there was a vague awareness of Xiong Wenwu's matter that could possibly implicate Liu Zhizhong, now it seems this is indeed related.

Zhang Xiaoyang understood internally, but still acted very genuinely on the surface, saying: "May I ask, two superior comrades, has Comrade Liu Zhizhong violated any laws or policies? Can he finish our class summary meeting, he's due to speak soon."

And some looked at Zhang Xiaoyang with admiration.

However, Liu Zhizhong knew, was this false sincerity?

Even Lu Jie felt this cousin was all about appearances. After all, she had been a bit lost this week and had little fondness for the cousin.

Ah, women, once fallen into love, many things become interesting, hehe...

Now, one of the two comrades from the province coldly glanced at Zhang Xiaoyang, said: "Regarding this matter, this comrade is not authorized to question or know. Comrade Liu Zhizhong, shall we go?"

Lu Jie's heart sank, poor man! He's so outstanding, yet he has to... be taken away by the province!

Du Shali, too, had her heart wrenched. Why! The man she liked, just taken away like this?

Other classmates mostly didn't quite understand, couldn't go to understand, some wanted to stand up for Liu Zhizhong. But they, in their locality, might have some influence, yet against the province, counted for nothing.

These days, if a province claims you're a clean official, you are; if not, then you likely aren't!

At the moment, Liu Zhi remained remarkably calm, got up calmly, followed the two comrades from the province directly out.

Behind him, were eyes full of complexity.

The Vice Principal still said, "Continue with the team summary meeting! The organization trusts Comrade Zhizhong, but Comrade Zhizhong must also cooperate with the organization's work!"

Liu Zhizhong heard it, his inner peace was undisturbed, because he confidently believed there were no issues...
