NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1190
Zhang Hongyang was dumbfounded and speechless.
"No... Dad... you..."
Old Man Zhang's eyes bulged as he gently put down his chopsticks, "What's wrong with me? Is there a problem?"
"No, Dad, why are you always boosting others' morale while crushing your own spirit? Liu Zhizhong is a great enemy of the Zhang Family! To deal with him, we even set up a Feng Shui Bureau..."
"Don't talk about that anymore; it's all in the past. People need to look forward. Especially in the officialdom, without a forgiving heart, there's no future. Is there really nothing about Liu Zhizhong that you can learn from? Oh, so only you can be the secretary, and he the County Mayor? Why should you, Zhang Hongyang, always be one step ahead? Son, being a person and an official, you can't be too arrogant and complacent, you must be resilient!"
Old Secretary Zhang spoke earnestly, leaving Zhang Hongyang looking bewildered.
In Zhang Hongyang's eyes, his father had changed, truly changed, no longer the Yangzhou King. In front of Liu Zhizhong, his father seemed so timid, sigh...
Damn it, Xie Peng was right, really taking advantage of this opportunity, using proximity, to destroy Liu Zhizhong, really to take him down that way.
By then, damn it, I'd like to see what else that bastard has that's worth learning from? The way and the manner he dies? Haha...
At the moment, Zhang Hongyang just nodded, indicating he had been taught a lesson or something.
It was at that moment that Liu Zhizhong called.
Interesting...
All along, it was Zhang Hongyang who proactively called to provoke Liu Zhizhong.
This time, it was Liu Zhizhong's turn to provoke Zhang Hongyang?
Zhang Hongyang took a look at his phone and pointed at the screen, saying, "Dad, did you see this? It's that bastard Liu Zhizhong, he's definitely calling to provoke me!"
Inside, he was feeling quite pleased. A County Party Secretary who's good at provoking, is he worth learning from? Dad, you got it wrong~~~
Old Man Zhang remained calm and said, "Answer it, put it on speaker, let me hear."
"Alright!"
Zhang Hongyang was a little excited, immediately put it on speaker, and placed the phone on the dining table.
On the other end, Liu Zhizhong's familiar voice came through: "County Head Zhang, congratulations on your transfer to Shanan County for work."
Zhang Hongyang coldly said, "Enough, Liu Zhizhong, what are you congratulating me for? Is this call to provoke me? You being the secretary and head in Shanan, and me being the County Mayor as second in command, always having to take your orders, right?"
"County Head Zhang, what you're saying hurts the harmony of the Party and government too much, don't you think? I have no intention of provoking you. It's just the organization's arrangement, and they informed me as well, asking me to be mentally prepared for the move."
"Prepared for what? A struggle, is it?" Zhang Hongyang's tone was dripping with sarcasm.
"Sigh... I even told the organization that, actually, there's no need for County Head Zhang to come over. Shadong County's economy is just taking off, and it needs your continued leadership. But the organization feels Shanan needs you more. With your youth and vigor, along with your rich work experience, you will assist me in building a brighter future for Shanan. I can't help it either, hoping that County Head Zhang can come aboard soon to use your advanced and existing experience to lead the whole county toward a better future!"
Zhang Hongyang was left dumbfounded, glancing at Old Man Zhang. Old Man Zhang looked at him with a cold smile, as if saying: Judging a gentleman with a villain's heart, aren't you? Did he provoke you?
At the moment, Zhang Hongyang felt uncomfortable and said, "Liu Zhizhong, cut the sweet talk, alright? Hearing that I am coming, you must be laughing wildly inside, aren't you?"
