Zhao Han's face turned red, and she felt both angry and unable to vent her frustration.

For a moment, she wanted to give her husband a few hard slaps but restrained herself.

Just as she had to restrain herself when she entered the private room earlier and heard her husband joking crudely with the nurse.

She knew exactly what kind of person her husband was.

Was it abnormal for Zhang Hongyang to have affairs? It was quite normal for him to mess around.

As a child of officialdom, Zhao Han had matured early too. Even her own father, when he was the District Committee Secretary, had his affairs, right?

Even once, he brought his mistress home and got caught red-handed by her mother, and yet, wasn't everything still fine?

When men are officials, if you don't let them mess around, nobody will work closely with them. They won't be able to gain power or money. Do you still want to enjoy a glamorous life?

Zhao Han really understood; she was sophisticated!

Therefore, Zhao Han's blushing and frustration were natural. "Zhang Hongyang, what are you babbling about? Liu Zhizhong really isn't the person you think he is. He seems totally normal without a hint of being tricked. The medicine you gave Xue Yao, it wasn't fake, was it?"

"Ah? How could that be?"

"What do you mean? You're thinking it would be good if your enemy slept with your wife, huh?" Zhao Han's face turned cold with loyalty.

Seeing the change in his wife's expression, Zhang Hongyang quickly tried to amend his words with a smile, "Oh, darling, I didn't mean that. How could the medicine be fake? Maybe it just expired? I was wondering why Xue Yao called saying Liu Zhizhong felt a bit dizzy. That shouldn't be right; it should make his hair feel full instead. It seems it really did expire, lost its effect, alas..."

While he spoke, he looked quite regretful, mentioning how he was anxious for his wife's safety and thus rushed to his mother-in-law's home, resulting in a car accident.

Listening to this, Zhao Han was somewhat touched yet also hated him.

What a scumbag!

Unable to trap an enemy, he ended up trapping his wife! Having an accident and ending up like this served him right!

Especially when she thought about Zhang Hongyang's affairs, she felt this was quite satisfying.

Oddly, on the way back, she found herself hating Liu Zhizhong a little less.

Even in her mind, when comparing the two men, well, Liu Zhizhong definitely seemed more handsome than Zhang Hongyang and had a more sunny appearance, unlike Zhang Hongyang's sullenness.

The key was… thinking about it made Zhao Han blush and her heart race: Liu Zhizhong was much more virile than Zhang Hongyang.

She hadn't failed to notice that when they slept last night.

The more she thought about it, the less she could afford to think… A woman experienced in life sometimes can't escape such matters.

To some extent, Zhao Han let herself go more.

Zhang Hongyang, you hypocritical beast, fooling around outside while pretending to love me, disgusting!

So don't blame me for cuckolding you thoroughly and secretly interacting with Liu Zhizhong.

Meanwhile, Zhang Hongyang, lying in the hospital, was completely relieved.

His wife was fine and no cuckolding on his head!

Liu Zhizhong, you lucky bastard, you won't be so lucky next time.

I must tell Zhang Xueyao, we need to keep playing the beauty trap...

Of course, since Zhang Hongyang was injured in the accident, he was enjoying free high-end medical care, and many came to visit him.

In Yangzhou, many people were eager to cozy up to the Zhang family.

They had gifted Zhang Hongyang comfort money, nearly two million, and he felt utterly delighted.

Just the other day, one of his mistresses was celebrating her birthday, so he decided to buy her a Porsche, the kind that costs over a million...

Within a few days, Liu Zhizhong had finished handing over his duties in the town and returned to the city, ready to report to the City Committee Courtyard the next day.

The feeling of an immediate rise was genuinely pleasant.

In his remote township, everyone found it unbelievable, feeling it was a fortune that the town hadn't seen in decades.

During his farewell, they even set off many firecrackers.

The secretary took his hand, saying, "Secretary Liu, once you're up there, you truly mustn't forget our town! Our town is poor, but it is not beyond development, just no leader is interested in approving projects, please help us!"

Liu Zhizhong knew that because he had filed for many projects while in the town, and Zhang Hongyang, acting as the deputy district head, blocked them; even the best projects couldn't be approved, utterly frustrating.

This time, moving up to the City Committee, becoming his uncle's secretary, he really had to get some projects moving. Let's see if Zhang Hongyang still dares to interfere!

And in these last couple of days, the new round of personnel changes in the city had indeed shown some interesting developments.

Especially, Liu Zhizhong knew that his aunt Lu Yuqing, age 34, nominally 35, had become the First Deputy Secretary of the City Committee, responsible for his own Section II, haha! Of course, she and Ma Xudong were secretly married, unknown to others, or else it really wouldn't be proper. How could a husband be the City Committee Secretary and his wife his housekeeper?

The Secretary of the City Committee was Zhang Yuxing, Zhang Hongyang's aunt, aged 43, also recently promoted by Ma Xudong, considered a quite young member of the City Committee authorities, and she did keep herself well-maintained, looking quite youthful and charming. Liu Zhizhong had met her and always felt she was a stern woman, like an austere nun.

However, the deputy director of Section II, Luo Yanling, who was sending racy texts to Ma Xudong, surprisingly had no job changes, still subordinate to Liu Zhizhong.

On the way to report to the City Committee Courtyard, remembering this voluptuous subordinate, Liu Zhizhong felt a bit uneasy.

Based on their affair, Luo Yanling should have been promoted. Instead, staying put while Ma Xudong moved a secretary from a remote township above her, how could she be comfortable?

Just as Liu Zhizhong was feeling uneasy, he received a text from Lu Yuqing: "Big darling, watch out for that bitch Luo Yanling, she's no simple girl. Be careful, but also try your best to handle her thoroughly, crushing her would be best!"
