Official Son-in-Law and the Beautiful Lady Fragrance

Zhang Yuxing couldn't help but feel her heart flutter when she saw the nickname 'Shui Xing' in the message, her face blushing with bashful crimson, she playfully cursed, "You bad dog!"

Memories of romantic times in Hainan flooded back, enough to savour, to obsess over.

She marveled at the relationship she had had with Liu Zhizhong, what had it been before, what was it now?

But she only gave a brief reply to Liu Zhizhong, "Let's talk about it tomorrow when I'm back at work!"

Liu Zhizhong got the message instantly, sure enough, their own Shui Xing knew the inside scoop—that settled it.

Soon after, Lu Yumei was all dolled up and looking charming in every possible way.

She still appeared calm and aloof, but her excitement could not be hidden in her eyes and eyebrows.

This beautiful widow was truly happy today!

Zhang Zhenglong had backed off, no longer harassing her.

The son-in-law she detested, Zhang Hongyang, had been banished to a remote county town!

Lu Yumei grabbed her stylish purse and descended the stairs, flinging her Audi Q7 keys to Liu Zhizhong.

"Here, you drive my car; let's go out for lunch. Today at noon, your aunt is joining us too, and I bet she's about to get promoted!"

Liu Zhizhong was momentarily stunned, but soon understood.

Taking the keys, he drove off in Lu Yumei's car.

Of course, Liu Zhizhong understood that with Zhang Yuxing stepping in as the beautiful city mayor, her previous position would be vacant, allowing Lu Yuqing to step up. Looking around the City Committee Courtyard, Lu Yuqing was the most qualified.

Even though Lu Yuqing's ex-husband Ma Xudong was in jail, her previous ex was still with the Zhang family, wasn't he? The Zhang family's prestige was something the organization had to consider.

By the time they arrived, Lu Yuqing and Zhao Han had already gotten there, the aunt and nephew were having a jolly conversation, obviously one good thing after another.

A quick inquiry by Liu Zhizhong confirmed it was true.

An announcement would be made tomorrow; Lu Yuqing was taking up the position of Secretary of the Municipal Committee.

Lu Yumei was ecstatic, declaring that today at noon, they must drink to their heart's content and not return sober.

But Liu Zhizhong calmly said, "Mrs. Lu, you guys have a great time drinking; I won't join you. I must take responsibility for getting you all home safely."

"No need for you to drop us off; we'll call a designated driver when it's time!"

Well then, with Lu Yumei's go-ahead, everyone really settled down to enjoy the good food and good drinks, celebrating together.

Liu Zhizhong's position as the decision-maker in the Zhao family seemed even more secure now. After all, Lu Yuqing had made a comment, saying, sister, look how many good things have happened at home since Zhizhong returned from the Party School!

Such comments bolstered Lu Yumei's approval of Liu Zhizhong; her impression of him improved even more.

During the meal, Lu Yumei mentioned that it was time to end Zhao Han's marriage with Zhang Hongyang and suggested Zhao Han make the phone call.

Zhao Han was now Liu Zhizhong's close confidant, not even wanting to hear Zhang Hongyang's voice directly; she sent a text message forthwith.

"Zhang Hongyang, we've reached the end of the road, let's part on good terms. Before you leave for your new posting, let's get the divorce proceedings done. Wishing you well."

Who would have known Zhang Hongyang might have been drinking too, somewhat emboldened by alcohol, and he sent a voice message back directly.

When Zhao Han played it, the whole table was stunned.

"Zhao Han, I won't divorce! I won't, and that's final. You, living or dead, are mine! If a woman from the Zhang family thinks she can leave, then she must ask the Zhang family's permission! What if I've been relegated to the border? You're still my wife! Without the Zhang family, you're nothing, and neither is the Zhao family. I hope you're aware of this and stop causing trouble for me!"

"Hey, this son of a bitch is talking back now?" Lu Yumei's anger flared up, and she grabbed her daughter's phone, ready to respond with a fiery voice message.

But it was at this moment that Liu Zhizhong jumped up beside her and grabbed her fair and smooth wrist…
