Chapter 1141
Qian Xuan actually couldn't quite say why; he just had a gut feeling that Zheng Xitong was playing a big game of chess.
It's even possible that the Southern Xiang Family is also playing chess.
As for Liu Zhizhong, he's really just a pawn.
As for how to play this pawn, the two of them racked their brains but couldn't find a solution, so they could only agree to take it one step at a time when the time came.
Some things, the more you think, guess, and ask, the less useful it actually is.
That night, Liu Zhizhong drank a bit with Qian Xuan before finally using Maybach's autopilot to return to the Zheng Family home.
It was essential to bring a gift for his godfather.
His godmother had gone to bed early, while his godfather was still up. Seeing Liu Zhizhong return, he went to the garage to greet him.
Liu Zhizhong, carrying some alcohol on him, got out of the car with a smile to greet Zheng Xitong.
Zheng Xitong smelled the alcohol, and his amiable smile turned serious.
"Zhizhong, having a bad mood? Drinking and driving isn't safe, you know that?"
In his heart, Liu Zhizhong thought, old fox, are you really concerned or just pretending?
Liu Zhizhong could only smile, looking indifferent, and said, "Mr. Zheng, I'm not in any bad mood! It's just that tonight I had dinner at Brother Xuan's house, and he insisted on having a drink with me to congratulate me on my new position! How could I not drink Brother Xuan's alcohol? Besides, this car's autopilot is quite impressive, no problem at all."
"Oh, haha..."
Zheng Xitong's smile reappeared, and he nodded, "Drinking at Brother Xuan's, understandable, understandable. But still, drink less; alcohol can cause trouble. No matter how advanced autopilot technology becomes, human intervention is still better. These electronic products are prone to malfunctions. In short, safety first when you're out."
"Okay, Mr. Zheng, I've noted that. Let's go, I'll first bring these nice things to the kitchen."
"Haha, alright, alright... After you're done, come by my study."
"Alright!"
Liu Zhizhong agreed readily and then personally moved things inside.
Zheng Xitong watched his actions, secretly praising him in his heart.
This kid has a strong psychological quality and is a master of emotional management. Excellent choice!
When Liu Zhizhong arrived at his godfather's study, Zheng Xitong had already brewed tea, brewed somewhat specially.
Zheng Xitong poured some tea for Liu Zhizhong and said, "This is specially brewed sobering tea; it's good for the body."
Liu Zhizhong really had no way to decline, but he still said, "Mr. Zheng, you're being too cautious. I really didn't drink much, don't need to sober up!"
"Still, you have to drink it. It's a little token of care from a father figure. From now on, you must cherish your body, and have regular check-ups every year."
"Uh..." Liu Zhizhong was stunned, "Mr. Zheng, I'm still young, I don't need that, do I? But, haha, thank you for cherishing my health. I'll drink this tea first."
After speaking, Liu Zhizhong really drank it all in one go.
Zheng Xitong, smiling, poured him another cup and also handed over good cigarettes.
"Zhizhong, honestly as a father figure, I can sense that you have some negative emotions, though you're managing them very well."
Liu Zhizhong secretly thought, you old fox, did you notice again? You're quite something!
He smiled, "Mr. Zheng, you're exaggerating. Emotions, none of those!"
"Don't force it. Between father and son, there should be nothing we can't discuss. Truthfully, this new position of yours, it really weighs on me."
