Official Son-in-Law and the Beautiful Lady Fragrance
Chapter 1037: 1037
"Fishing for big fish?" Xiang Wenhua looked puzzled, "Aren't you just using a single hook with a big bait? Is there something special about this in my assassination attempt?"
Liu Zhizhong said, "Different methods, same principle!"
"How so?"
"First, a single hook with big bait targets only big fish. Second, no chum, the big fish always have to eat; third... never mind, I won't mention the third point, just the first two points alone could solve your assassination problem. Because, during the last assassination attempt, you survived, and they originally wanted your life. You being alive means they'll definitely try again."
"However, since you're staying put here with tight security, they have no way to get in and make a move. But you can't hide forever, and they can't wait for you forever either."
"The best method is for you to act as the big bait, seemingly abandoning your security while secretly strengthening your forces. As soon as they act, ensure they fall into the trap, haha... think about it, you're all alone, isn't that bait big enough?"
Xiang Wenhua was silent for a moment, tapping the table continuously, and finally said, "Are you risking your father-in-law's life like it's nothing? Who can ensure perfect security on the outside?"
These words made sense.
Liu Zhizhong nodded, "It's a tough problem! The more power and influence one has, the more they cherish life and pursue safety..."
"Enough, just say I'm afraid to die, isn't that what you mean?"
"Hey... I didn't say that..."
"Haha, I am afraid to die, otherwise I wouldn't have come here to hide." Xiang Wenhua said straightforwardly, with an honest look on his face.
Liu Zhizhong smiled and said, "So, the strategy to fish and strike the opponent must be carefully planned. I'm just suggesting, you shouldn't try it unless you're fully prepared."
"Yes, this definitely requires careful planning, can't rush into it..."
As Xiang Wenhua was speaking, he received a call back from his uncle.
Xiang Wenhua put it on speakerphone, and the news was thrilling.
Haixi Prison agreed to give Liu Zhizhong an hour of visiting time two days later, scheduled for 10 a.m. sharp.
Ah, this is great news, Liu Zhizhong couldn't help but want to express his gratitude.
After Xiang Wenhua finished the call, Liu Zhizhong said, "Then I'll go down the mountain tomorrow, need to buy some things for Liu Dongyuan! Everything edible, drinkable, wearable, and usable, the best of what can be brought, hehe... By the way, I'll notify Liu Dongmei and ask her to join."
Xiang Wenhua laughed, "Look at how excited you are, it's like you're visiting a lover rather than a brother."
Liu Zhizhong smiled awkwardly and said, "It's not like that! I don't have many friends, during school days, Brother Dong Yuan definitely counted as one! These years haven't been easy for him, or his family, sigh..."
"I understand. Both of you come from humble beginnings, and fought together..."
"..."
That night, before sleeping, Liu Zhizhong sent a message back to Zheng Xitong explaining Xiang Wenhua's point of view, but of course without mentioning whether he had children or not, only saying that he has completely given up on Feng Xiaoyue, and is currently focused on the family legacy.
Zheng Xitong didn't respond until the next morning with a message: "Oh, I see, I'll personally visit Southern later!"
Seeing this message, Liu Zhizhong was dumbfounded.
What was going on?
Is he so determined to marry Feng Xiaoyue to Xiang Wenhua that he's willing to lower himself?
