  Yun Jiangmin didn't speak for a while before asking:

  "Zheng Dong, where did you learn about these things? Was it from hearing others talk about them? Zheng Dong, this is a serious matter. I hope you will tell me the truth and not hide anything..."

  Yun Jiangmin didn't believe that these high-level political dynamics were beyond Lu Zhengdong's expectations, and Lu Zhengdong must have heard rumors from somewhere or been pointed out by someone.

  Lu Zhengdong couldn't help but smile when he saw Yun Jiangmin's serious expression, it seemed that although Yun Jiangmin was still quite skeptical about what Lu Zhengdong said, he had listened to a considerable amount of it.

  Having achieved his goal, he decided to stop while the going was good and think of a way to cover up the slip-up, so that Yun Jiangmin would not ask any more questions. After thinking for a moment, he waved the newspaper in his hand and said:

  "Little brother-in-law, many things are learned through TV broadcasts and newspapers and magazines. In fact, this article has already clearly stated what he wants to say and do."

  After understanding these, I thought about it carefully and found that it's not difficult to think of these things. It's just a matter of mentality. As the saying goes, "When you're in a situation, you're confused, but when you're outside, you're clear." If he really gives up on reform and opening-up, it would be a complete denial of his most important and proudest political career. This is absolutely not what he wants to see happen. Therefore, he will not sit idly by and watch the situation go backwards, watching the achievements of reform and opening-up being completely destroyed.

  Even the slightly knowledgeable cadres in our small place know that he will not give up once he has made up his mind, and will definitely not sit idly by. It's hard to turn back now."

  Lu Zhengdong hesitated for a moment before continuing:

  "Little uncle, I know this is a bit out of line for me to say, but if things really develop in this way, I've thought about it but didn't dare speak up. Wouldn't that be too unfair to you? By then, wouldn't it be too late for regrets? Anyway, I'm not saying this for the family's sake, just for your reference, little uncle. Having one more perspective on things is also my way of showing respect as a younger generation..."

  Yun Jiangmin nodded thoughtfully, Lü Zhongdong's words were not unreasonable. The capital was indeed chaotic, but they were all just small-time players on the surface. The real big shots were mostly hiding behind the scenes, his own father included, and so were the old masters of other families. Hiding behind the scenes didn't mean they didn't have their own ideas, it meant they were waiting for an opportunity to make a move without getting themselves into a dead end. On the other hand, his older brother was too close to him, and in some matters, seemed to be too impulsive. If judgment was clouded by bias, it would be hard to recover from the consequences. It seemed he needed to observe the situation further before making a move...

  Yun Jiangmin slightly raised his head and said:

  "Zheng Dong, it seems like you've really grown up. The hardships you've endured with your mother over the years haven't been in vain. In the next few days, I have some things to attend to, so when you leave, I may not be able to see you off. Your mother's affairs will be taken care of by us, so go back and work hard. The better you do, the more at ease your mother can rest and recover..."

  Lu Zhengdong nodded, being able to discuss it like this today was already pretty good, as for what Grandfather's family would do next, that would have to wait...

  ————————————————

  Lu Zhengdong flew directly to the provincial capital on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. He had to go to work on the seventh day, and as the village head, he couldn't not show up on the first working day after the holiday, so despite his concerns about his mother, he had no choice but to leave.

  Lu Zhengdong rushed to the bus station as soon as he came out of the airport. He didn't want to stay in the provincial city for another night.

  The bus from the provincial capital to Changtan takes several hours, so Lu Zhengdong arrived at the station and prepared to buy some food and newspapers at a small shop next door to kill time on the bus.

  Just as he turned the corner, he saw several men surrounding two women. The two women were dressed in a trendy and beautiful way, but their faces were full of panic. One man noticed him paying attention, glared at him fiercely, hesitated for a moment, then winked at another man, and turned to face him:

  "Hey buddy, brother's been having a streak of bad luck lately and is short on cash. Give me some pocket money to spend, know what's good for you? Don't come at me recklessly or I'll make you bleed, don't look for trouble during the New Year."

  One of them, puffing on a cigarette and playing with a spring knife, said.

  Lu Zhengdong was taken aback, thinking it was just a hoodlum teasing a good girl, but it turned out to be a robbery.

  Lu Zhengdong returned from Beijing, naturally dressed well, obviously being treated as a big fat sheep. Since he ran into him, he also wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make some money off him.

  What a disaster!

  Lu Zhengdong looked at several people, basically doing this kind of thing is just to make a good deal during the Lunar New Year to celebrate the holiday. These guys are really something, everyone else is still celebrating the Spring Festival, but they're "working". Looks like they've gone crazy from being poor.

  It's just that these few guys have chosen the wrong target, Lu Zhengdong thought to himself. With his skills, as long as he takes care of the one with the knife, it shouldn't be a problem.

  The man with the cigarette saw that he was not moving, so he swung his spring knife, and another one prepared to snatch the small package from his hand. Too unprofessional! Lu Zhengdong's hand moved in a circle, and with a "pa" sound, he knocked the knife out of the man's hand. His foot swept up and heavily kicked the knee joint of the guy who was robbing him, then twisted the cigarette-smoking man's elbow, his hand flipped over, and Lu Zhengdong disliked being threatened by the knife, so he quickly disarmed him.

  The guy who was holding the money he had just snatched from two women heard a scream and looked up, only to be kicked by Lu Zhengdong and trampled underfoot. In the blink of an eye, the three guys were taken care of.

  "Thank you..."

  The two women who had just been robbed picked up their wallets and purses from the ground and said to him:

  "You're really something..."

  The girl looked like she was just in her early twenties, wearing a pink medium-length coat, with a tight black cotton sock underneath, revealing her plump knee and beautifully curved legs. Her bright eyes were fixed on him, seemingly admiring his skills. As she spoke, she raised her hand to tuck away the few strands of hair that had fallen onto her forehead due to bending down, beside her delicate face. Then, with a slightly fearful expression, she gently patted her chest, and the elegant movement made her already full and plump breasts even more prominent.

  The woman suddenly seemed to feel a bit uneasy, slightly raised an eyebrow and smiled faintly, imperceptibly placing her hand on her chest, the bright red small mouth added a seductive charm.

  Another woman who looked a bit more mature, with long hair tied back, high nose, and a pair of moist red lips that slightly revealed her white teeth. Her milky white windbreaker and brown high heels set off her tall figure.

  Lu Zhengdong's first impression was that this woman was very good at dressing herself, seemingly very aware of her own figure and appearance, always using clothes to perfectly set off her beauty. However, her personality was also somewhat too cold and proud, when thanking him, her face also had a faintly indifferent expression.

  Two women are very eye-catching, walking there is the focus, no wonder they become targets.

  This place is just a short distance from the main gate of the station, several guys fell to the ground wailing and howling, this commotion had already attracted the attention of people around, the police and security personnel in the station quickly came over and took the guys into the security room...

  After a brief delay, Lu Zhengdong barely caught the last bus to Changtan City.

  "You... also came to Yanghe, what a coincidence..."

  Lu Zhengdong sat in the car reading the newspaper, waiting for departure. He heard a female voice next to him and looked up to see the pink-clad woman he had just bumped into. Lu Zhengdong already knew her name from the police station's records - Zhang Mengtian. He smiled and greeted her too.

  Zhang Mengtian smiled and looked very good, with a bit more maturity between her eyebrows and eyes than ordinary girls, and a bit more charm.

  "Thanks so much just now."

  Zhang Mengtian sat down beside him, looking at his ticket and said.

  Two people said a few words, and soon the car was full of passengers. The train departed from the station, but it moved as slowly as a snail. The ticket seller opened the door and loudly shouted to attract more customers. The entire carriage was overcrowded, and the passengers were all impatient and quarreling with each other. However, the driver and ticket seller were seasoned veterans who had been tested many times before, and in order to make extra money, they simply pretended not to hear anything.

  The carriage was very crowded, and people in the aisle were squeezing towards the seats to gain more space. Especially when they saw a woman who looked quite good, everyone couldn't help but take advantage of it. She was trying hard to push her back against the crowd, but it was no use, and she was slowly being pressed closer to him. The car was shaking violently, and Zhang Mengtian's soft chest was constantly pressing against Lu Zhengdong's body, although they were separated by clothes. However, from the slight tremble transmitted through the plumpness, one could also feel a subtle sense of beauty.

  Although the taste was good, Lu Zhengdong saw her uncomfortable appearance and seemed to have some motion sickness symptoms, so he said:

  "Or else, let's switch positions..."

  "Thanks so much, I'm getting a bit carsick."

  Zhang Mengtian first stood up from her seat, standing in front of it. Lu Zhengdong sat down on her seat, his buttocks feeling a wave of warmth, as if he could clearly feel her body temperature.

  Lu Zhengdong had just sat down when the car suddenly screeched to a halt. Zhang Mengtian was about to move his leg over to sit in his position, completely unguarded, and fell forward before moving backward, landing in his lap. Lu Zhengdong instinctively reached out to support her, wrapping his arms around her slender waist. She sat half on his legs, her plump buttocks pressing against him, and he steadied himself by grasping her shoulders.

  Zhang Mengtian's body trembled slightly, and a faint pink hue appeared on her delicate white cheeks. She shifted her buttocks before sitting down in her seat.

  "I'm sorry..."

  She sat down in her seat, her face flushed bright red, panting slightly, and apologized with a soft body leaning against the back of the chair.

  Lu Zhengdong knew she was a bit embarrassed now, so he smiled and hinted that he didn't take it to heart.

  With this little episode, Zhang Mengtian seemed a bit embarrassed, and the two of them didn't talk like that anymore, both dozing off.

  When he woke up, Lu Zhengdong looked at his watch and it was almost 8 o'clock in the evening. They were about to arrive in the city. The night seemed to have dissipated some of Zhang Mengtian's embarrassment, and she sat there starting a conversation with him. In their conversation, Lu Zhengdong learned that Zhang Mengtian worked at the Municipal Construction Bank, and Zhang Mengtian also asked him about his work unit in a roundabout way. Lu Zhengdong could feel that Zhang Mengtian had a good impression of him...
