NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1101
Liu Zhizhong was definitely a bit annoyed by the way Zheng Xitong was arranging everything for him.
Zheng Xitong, however, smiled gently and harmlessly, saying, "No rush! Let's keep the engagement up in the air, like having an expert's appointment in hand, no need to panic. Your marriage isn't happy right now, you two aren't on the same page, and you don't have children either. Getting a divorce sooner so that each of you can find happiness is a good thing after all!"
Mrs. Zheng also smiled warmly and said, "Yes, Zhizhong, your godfather is right! Why hold onto an unhappy marriage? The Second Miss of the Xiang family is both beautiful and talented, she's not bad at all. She's so good to you, isn't this just like breaking a thin paper window? A strong alliance between the Zheng family and the Xiang family is beneficial for you personally and from a broader perspective, extremely advantageous! Zhizhong, in this world, it's better to be a bit more realistic."
Zheng Xitong nodded in agreement, "Yes, one needs to be realistic. Facing reality is the methodology necessary for our big family. Zhizhong, I believe you have this awareness..."
"Exactly, Zhizhong, look at you, after you became the Zheng family's adopted son, your social influence and status..."
"..."
Damn...
This old couple, taking turns to speak, really understand society and the world so well that Liu Zhizhong was at a loss for words.
Anyway, this time he's not going to the South. His godfather and godmother's intention is to spare him from some awkwardness or embarrassment.
The matter of proposing to the Second Miss of the Xiang family, they, the old couple, will handle it. The Xiang family is the number one family in the South, so they must give the Zheng family some face!
Liu Zhizhong, on the other hand, was left with a task, which was Mrs. Zheng's requirement: If the proposal is successful, Liu Zhizhong must successfully divorce Zhao Yan within half a year.
Liu Zhizhong felt bitter inside but couldn't refuse. If he didn't listen to his godfather and godmother, that would be a big problem.
On that side, his mother-in-law Lu Yumei hoped he would marry Zhao Han after the divorce.
On this side, the Zheng couple hoped he would marry Xiang Wenxin after the divorce.
Alas... being a man is sometimes so hard...
Unknowingly, could Liu Zhizhong feel that in the eyes of the Zheng family, he had become a pawn for political transactions?
Not to mention what kind of impact marrying Xiang Wenxin would have, isn't this obviously a political marriage, just treating him as a bargaining chip?
When you're embroiled in a situation, who can extricate themselves?
After breakfast, when the Zheng couple took their special car to the airport, only after Liu Zhizhong saw them off did he feel that he was completely powerless.
He told his wife he would go to the South, not to get a divorce; but now, he can't even go to the South. Where is the integrity in being a person?
He even felt, damn, it was better before, working as a deputy town head in a remote town. Although it was a bit poorer, at least he had practical things to do and didn't have to worry about too many other things. Occasionally listening to gossip about cadre transfers was also somewhat entertaining.
But now, sigh, connections have expanded, and with it, so many troubles have come...
After his godfather and godmother left, Liu Zhizhong was left with an awkward freedom.
Oh well, let's go to Qian Xuan's farm to have some fun! Just got the new Super Maybach camper, taking Brother Xuan and Xuan's wife to the farm for camping isn't a bad idea.
Meanwhile, he could also discuss with Qian Xuan about what exactly is going on with Zheng Xitong's trip to the South?
Thus, Liu Zhizhong drove his Maybach, leaving the Zheng family manor, heading straight to the Qian Family Mansion.
Who knew, halfway there...
