Official Son-in-Law and the Beautiful Lady Fragrance

Zhang Yuxing though frowned continuously and suddenly jumped up from Liu Zhizhong's embrace.

She landed on the ground, hands on hips, and instantly the image of the authoritative and beautiful female mayor emerged as she scolded loudly and shrilly,

"Zhang Hongyang, what the hell are you yelling about? Crying out like a ghost? Look at yourself now, do you even resemble a county mayor? Does this fit with your current reputation and influence?"

"Where's the poised, measured, and ambitious young mayor seen before the cameras? You're acting like the quarreling woman from the most destitute rural village in Shadong County, a shrew, you hear me?"

"Every day, you can't seem to forget your grudges and resentments; you can't return to the overall unity of the Party and government team!"

"What have you relied on to get where you are today? On your own abilities? Shadong's anti-corruption efforts relied on the support of the Zhang family home, gaining fame with the help of Liu Zhizhong's pen! Besides these, what do you have left? A pile of mess, isn't that right?"

"Day after day, you disregard the words of your elders, obsessed with grievances and hatred, you should be sensible now, it's time to mature! You've achieved results on the surface, a county mayor not long and already performing well, but what about me? Have you ever considered your younger aunt?"

Zhang Hongyang felt drenched in a shower of blood, his fierce temper immediately quelled, and he calmed down, feeling somewhat aggrieved, but he really didn't dare to contradict his younger aunt.

Zhang Hongyang knew that in the entire Zhang Family Clan, Grandpa doted on the younger aunt the most, alas...

That day, Uncle Du Yuesheng had a meal alone with him, and was still talking about how Zhang Yuxing sabotaged his good deeds!

Zhang Hongyang felt a mix of emotions at the time, knowing after all that uncle was eyeing his former aunt! But the power of the younger aunt was so great, Zhang Hongyang had a profound experience of it.

Now, he finally calmed down and hurriedly said, "Younger Aunt, I'm sorry, I just couldn't control my emotions. But... how should I consider you?"

"This is where you show immaturity, not being grown-up enough! A new official lights three fires upon taking office, and you sure burned bright, but what about me, your younger aunt? Have I ever lit a match?"

"Eh... well, hehe... it seems, hehe... the younger aunt hasn't lit any... hehe..." Zhang Hongyang said awkwardly, stuttering and somewhat afraid, "It seems, the younger aunt has some plans, huh? Relying on me?"

"Were you just showing off to Liu Zhizhong?"

"Eh... hehe..."

"He turned around and came to me, saying he needed compensation for being your scapegoat, half of it. This half of the money, he won't take for himself, but..."

Zhang Yuxing spilled all the related details, finally adding, "Hongyang, the younger aunt's first mark will probably be this municipal sanitation rest station. It's to be done in the three municipal districts, and also in each county and city under jurisdiction. Liu Zhizhong's suggestion is very good, he's willing to donate it, and I'm very gratified!"

"I... I..."

Zhang Hongyang felt agitated and was tempted to curse again.

God damn Liu Zhizhong, what are you pretending to be a good guy for? Dragging my younger aunt down the wrong path, isn't this what you're doing?

Damn it, now even those street sweepers get municipal charity treatment? Do they deserve it?

But Zhang Hongyang didn't dare vocalize these thoughts in front of his younger aunt, knowing well that if she spoke like this, she was determined to light this fire.

Zhang Hongyang could only continue, "I fully support the younger aunt's idea, governing for the people, cleaners are people too, there's no distinction between higher or lower, noble or base in professions! Liu Zhizhong's approach, indeed... is acceptable..."

"So, he's donated already, what about you? Are you supporting your younger aunt just with words?"

"Ah? I... I..." Zhang Hongyang stuttered again, his face twitching, on the verge of tears...
