NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1126
From this point on, Liu Zhizhong can only accept the reality of his wife's vegetative state.
It's not just him; everyone has to accept it.
Godfather Zheng originally intended for Liu Zhizhong to divorce quickly, after which he would arrange a reasonable marriage—one that would be mutually beneficial. The Xiang family's Second Miss wouldn't marry, but there were other candidates.
Well, this plan is now disrupted.
Liu Zhizhong's original wife Zhao Yan is now a vegetative person, so the divorce cannot happen, right?
Voluntary divorce is not possible, and litigation for divorce is even more implausible; who can do such a heartless thing?
Even Liu Zhizhong's new job arrangement was suddenly postponed due to his wife's accident, giving him time to deal with his family's low spirits!
Everyone sighed with pity, as seeing such a beauty become like this is something that no one can delight in.
Even Zhang Hongyang felt awkward calling Liu Zhizhong and instead sent a message expressing deep apology, hoping for a miracle someday.
In response, Liu Zhizhong replied with a terse message: "At least you still have a shred of humanity, now get lost!"
Zhang Hongyang didn't reply nor did he get too angry, leaving things as they were for now...
The best Liu Zhizhong could do was to provide Zhao Yan with the best vegetative care, using the finest nutritional drugs and foods, hiring top-notch physical therapists, and so on.
Every now and then, he would visit the hospital room, hold Zhao Yan's gentle hand, and talk to her in hopes of stimulating her to wake up. Isn't this what everyone does with a vegetative person?
Lu Yumei would visit too, as would Zhao Han, Lu Yuqing, and some friends and relatives.
But Liu Zhizhong never knew if an unfamiliar woman would also visit the ward, such as Little Baihe?
Regarding Zhao Yan's current situation, Liu Zhizhong felt a burst of anger. This anger was vented in two areas.
First, Yangzhou's traffic order must be rectified.
To this end, Liu Zhizhong specially invited City Committee members Du Yuesheng, Zhang Yuxing, and Zhang Tianbao to have dinner together with him.
Rectifying the traffic order to ensure unobstructed city movement and safeguard people's lives and property is imperative; it's not just meaningful but also a political achievement!
A robust traffic reform campaign was launched, targeting both city zones and other counties, it must be done!
Motorcycles, electric scooters, cars, trucks, unified examination, certified driving, speed and lane restrictions—bicycles, too, must be strictly managed and stick to their paths.
All vehicles and pedestrians must strictly follow traffic regulations, no jaywalking, no parking chaos, violators will be fined—including vehicles delivering couriers and food deliveries.
New municipal traffic management regulations were promptly issued, with clear penalty clauses, and persistent offenders faced public safety charges, possibly detention or imprisonment.
The whole city's traffic overhaul meant all police and auxiliary officers couldn't idle in offices anymore; all were sent out for mobile law enforcement.
Every major road must have a security and traffic patrol station every kilometer, capable of immediate response and patrol at any time, with officers on duty 24/7.
The public security system and traffic system simultaneously initiated high-intensity task allocations, cooperating with each other resolutely to rectify traffic and penalize repeated violators of traffic laws, treating vehicles and pedestrians equally. At such times, stubbornness and dramatic displays won't work!
For a while, the people in Yangzhou, uninformed, accustomed to their own ways, complained loudly, some even petitioned and filed complaints...
However, through strong publicity and heavy fines, especially with many fines and some people detained, behaviors improved, the whole city conformed.
In roughly a month's time, Yangzhou's previously chaotic traffic became orderly. Everyone abided by traffic rules, granting way to each other, the societal atmosphere turned positively; the usual morning and evening peak congestion model vanished.
At the same time, over the month, the citywide traffic accident rate surprisingly decreased by nearly 60 percentage points compared to the previous year, which was astounding and indeed a remarkable achievement! The performance of the public security and traffic systems was evident, their revenue increased.
The security and traffic synergy model was even featured on provincial news, Yangzhou news, becoming nationally renowned, with the model demanded for provincial-wide promotion.
Du Yuesheng as Mayor and Zhang Yuxing as City Government showcased themselves well, their achievements soared rapidly.
Yangzhou's security improved, its traffic flowed smoothly, leaders from various prefecture-level cities, provincial cities, Ministry of Public Security, came to either visit or inspect, boasting unceasingly!
Nobody truly anticipated that a city's traffic could proceed unobstructed regardless of rush hours, a delightful experience indeed.
Fundamentally, Yangzhou's streets weren't even wide, how was this achieved?
While Du Yuesheng and Zhang Yuxing gave interviews and reports, of course they didn't mention everything being due to Liu Zhizhong's wife being reduced to a vegetative state from a traffic mishap, instead told other appealing stories, the fundamental point being: there must be rules, once rules are established, they are strictly enforced.
In essence, this traffic issue cannot be indulged!
With smooth traffic, Liu Zhizhong driving to the hospital to see his wife became easier, a mode of venting, akin to a sense of accomplishment, even though he did not gain notoriety from the overhaul.
Because of his wife's vegetative state, Liu Zhizhong's second venting point was to find out about that mysterious call: who made it and what was said?
He believed the communication company recorded it and that it could be tracked. However, by law, it requires significant authorization.
Such tracking permissions truly need to be substantial; otherwise personal secrets would be nonexistent, and even leaders wouldn't have secrets, correct?
Thinking over and over, Liu Zhizhong naturally thought of Liu Dongyuan.
The Sea Wolf Team's Wolf King, if he wanted to investigate anything, as long as it didn't involve certain influential figures, it probably wouldn't be a big problem.
Liu Dongyuan was aware of Zhao Yan's situation as well, and even called to comfort Liu Zhizhong.
Liu Zhizhong, through the call, made his request to Brother Dong Yuan.
After considering for a while, Liu Dongyuan said it wasn't a big problem, he would effortfully retrieve Zhao Yan's call records, especially the contents of the recordings. However, the Sea Wolf Team was currently on a secret mission, requiring approximately two months before returning to base. Upon return, the Sea Wolf Intelligence Group would immediately handle the matter.
Thus, as Yangzhou's security overhaul became widely acclaimed nationally, news from Liu Dongyuan's investigation finally came out, reaching Liu Zhizhong...
