NOVEL NEXT Chapter 970: 970
Liu Zhizhong didn't expect at all that Hongyang and Xie Peng would use such a cruel tactic against him.
He followed the usual routine, accompanying Lu Yumei and her daughter to Shuangxin Valley.
There are many undeveloped areas in Shennong Grand Canyon, with numerous forks and side roads, some of which have been abandoned because the mountain residents have moved away.
Some roads aren't abandoned, but barely anyone walks them, except for the Fishing Man.
Liu Zhizhong, with his exceptional memory, is quite familiar with the terrain and never gets lost.
On the bumpy path, the Big Lao RV traversed as if on flat ground. However, Zhao Han, who was inexperienced, would occasionally let out a startled cry! Her cries were quite charming, stoking the flames in Liu Zhizhong's heart!
He hadn't done anything for a few days and was feeling quite restless.
However, sometimes when he glanced in the rearview mirror, the mother and daughter in the back seat dressed more coolly than each other, their alluring curves swaying with the car's movement like a captivating landscape, which was quite arousing.
Of course, while driving through the isolated parts of the scenic area, they sometimes encountered the Fishing Man and had to negotiate oncoming traffic. The Big Lao RV simply borrowed the path on the side, crushing the grass and small trees powerfully along the way.
More often, Liu Zhizhong thought of the old secretary Li Tanglu. The old secretary rose through the ranks thanks to Shennong Grand Canyon in this city back in the day, which was quite an achievement.
Thinking of his deformed son, Chen Yuanyuan, Liu Zhizhong couldn't help but feel emotional, although he couldn't speak of such private matters out loud. Hopefully, Chen Yuanyuan could reflect deeply on his mistakes, reform and go on to study, perhaps becoming an expert or professor. That wouldn't be bad at all.
Anyway, in this country, being a professor is quite easy—just speak nonsense but make it sound plausible; that's how academia works, for those who know.
However, from Liu Zhizhong's understanding of human nature, Chen Yuanyuan might not become an unreliable professor. Once he finishes his graduate studies, he might change his worldview and values. After all, he's very smart, and it's likely that after experiencing setbacks, he'll become diligent and ambitious!
When they arrived at the top of Shuangxin Valley, Liu Zhizhong stopped the car because the view here was incredible, perfect for photos. He could act as the photographer for the mother and daughter.
Lu Yumei revisited old places, feeling the freshness and excitement still.
Zhao Han, as a newcomer, stood on the long slope top, gazing over Shuangxin Valley, filled with excitement at how beautiful it is.
The long slopes here had quite a few fiery red and black rocks, clear green river water, steep and towering cliffs across, alongside blue sky and white clouds, composing a splendid autumn scene.
It's cool here, incredibly refreshing. The sun rises high but isn't blinding; instead, it's bright and soft.
Zhao Han, like a greedy child, kept exclaiming, wanting to capture this and that, saying this place is truly beyond the mortal world, a too beautiful place. If only the roads could be widened, it would be perfect for frequent vacationing here.
But Lu Yumei, amidst her daughter's excitement, surveyed the area where they stationed last time, frowned and said, "What do you mean frequent visits? Can't you see someone is over there building houses? Who knows what kind of big shot has taken a fancy to this piece of prime land, sigh..."
