Zhang Hongyang acted proactively, and directly in the villa's living room, spent less than ten minutes to transfer two million US dollars overseas to Mrs. Meng.

This method can be understood as a form of compensation, or as bribery, and it's a very safe method.

Later, since Governor Meng Jixiang was indeed asleep, it wasn't suitable to disturb him, so Liu Zhizhong and Zhang Hongyang bid farewell to Wang Xuliang and left.

Wang Xuliang escorted the two out to the yard, saying don't worry, tomorrow I'll report well to Governor Meng. As for County Head Zhang, this time it was an unintentional mistake, there's no real blame, but everyone felt your sincere heart, and that's great!

Do you know what it means when a leader's secretary says something like this?

Even though a secretary is not a leader, the words of a leader's secretary hold considerable weight. Especially someone like Wang Xuliang, who is close to Meng Jixiang, and even when Meng Jixiang was hospitalized, it was him serving as secretary, giving his words even more weight.

A secretary like him, even if there are differences with the leader's opinion, he can have the ability to handle and sway the leader, achieving the effect of controlling the leader.

Sitting in Liu Zhizhong's car, Zhang Hongyang finally exhaled a sigh of relief, "Ah, finally the shoe has dropped and my mind is at ease! With Secretary Wang saying that, I feel reassured. Secretary Liu, thank you, without you, I really wouldn't know what to do."

Liu Zhizhong smiled faintly, saying, "Why talk about this? From a certain standpoint, we're rivals, why should I help you? But looking at the bigger picture in Shanan, we're working as a team, and I'm the team leader, I need to lead the deputy leader and all the team members properly, can't afford to have anyone holding us back! Shanan is a whole, it must have shared interests and sentiments."

Zhang Hongyang was almost touched, nodding, "Secretary Liu, sorry, my perspective was too narrow. I apologize for my past actions toward you! From now on, in Shanan, I will look up to you, without any ulterior thoughts!"

"Alright, why talk about this, loyalty isn't spoken, it's acted upon."

"Yeah, I'll remember. You must be tired today, right? Come, let's find a nice place, have a bath, relax, and get a massage, my treat!"

Liu Zhizhong frowned, "You're just corrupting your team leader, it's not decent! You want to go, go by yourself, I better go home! But I advise you, best to have a good rest, don't get into troublesome things, it's not safe. Tomorrow, we still have to listen to Governor Meng's address!"

"Hmm, that's reasonable. But Secretary Liu, you just guided me in bribery, talking about corruption now seems a bit awkward, right? Come on, I'm treating!"

"Not going, not going! Liu Zhizhong is upright, won't do such things."

Despite all the persuasion, Liu Zhizhong still didn't go.

Zhang Hongyang had to get off midway and leave by taxi himself.

In Shanan these days, he was also feeling quite stifled.

Although his health wasn't great, after all, he was still a man, with needs.

After experiencing such tumultuous challenges, he indeed needed a good release!

As for Liu Zhizhong, driving home, he contacted Yang Bingbing halfway.

Yang Bingbing couldn't handle hearing Liu Zhizhong's voice? Hearing his voice made her feel almost pregnant, she immediately drove to Liu Zhizhong's home in the Provincial City, got herself washed, and waited for her beloved.

Life is occasionally about having some enjoyment, then it feels good, hehe...
