Chapter 21 One Plus One



Zhou Zhiyuan returned to his parents' home and drank with his father together with his younger brother Zhou Zhibiao. They got drunk.

Zhou Zhiyuan's sister-in-law Li Hui understands Zhou Zhiyuan's difficulties very well. It is understandable that the Zhao family looks down on the Zhou family because they are not a good match. There is no need to complain or tell everyone about it.

It is obvious that Li Hui is a good helper to Zhou Zhibiao. In a marriage, one plus one must be greater than two, not one plus one less than two.

From then on, Zhou Zhiyuan and Zhao Jing started a cold war.

At the same time, the Zhao family and the Zhou family also started a cold war.

What the Zhao family never expected was that the Zhou family was becoming more and more unstoppable, especially in business. Zhou Zhibiao and Li Hui were simply business savants, making money on whatever they invested in!

Zhou Zhiyuan made a huge profit from the Coca-Cola and Hengda Real Estate stocks he bought, and quietly became a millionaire.

And this is Zhou Zhiyuan’s net worth after he thanked Secretary Zheng Xiaoting!

What Zhou Zhiyuan never expected was that Mr. Wang, who had once initiated the "Party Member Commitment System" in Saikun County and served as the provincial party secretary in the south of Yunnan, was taken away by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection while he was enjoying his twilight years in the "Imperial Palace" in Hainan.

Subsequent reports were very intensive, especially the secrets about Mr. Wang and his wife Liu, which were dug up in depth, to the point of a human flesh search.

The news was widely circulated on Kuaishou, Douyin, WeChat and other self-media platforms.

There are all kinds of rumors. One says that when Mr. Wang was the Party Secretary in the township, he had an affair with a beautiful typist he hired and even forced her to have an abortion.

From then on, Mr. Wang's wife Liu held a grudge against him and collected money for him openly and secretly.

It is so luxurious that it is beyond words. Mr. Wang’s “palace” in Hainan is so magnificent that even the toilet is made of pure gold.

Zhou Zhiyuan shook his head, feeling a bit of pain deep in his heart. After all, Mr. Wang was a political star from Saikun County, and he was also an idol of the younger generation like Zhou Zhiyuan!

However, Mr. Wang was ultimately defeated by his own character and marriage, as well as the bureaucracy and hedonism that could not be eradicated deep in his heart.

Of course, there is also Mr. Wang’s boasting. He has always been a hypocrite with extremely poor character, but he packages himself as excellent!

Mr. Wang has been characterized as having lost his faith, his inner world corrupted, and a master at boasting and creating a work atmosphere. He is a complete Party scum who talks big but harms the country! While appearing to be honest and upright, he is actually corrupt and perverts the law, causing irreparable damage to the Party, the country, and the people.

Immediately afterwards, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee and other relevant units joined forces with CCTV to record a large-scale anti-corruption documentary, which was uniformly broadcast, studied and reflected upon nationwide!

Saikun County then became a severely affected area. Fortunately, Secretary Gao Shanfeng and County Mayor Huyan Junjie joined forces and responded quickly, and the Municipal Party Committee Secretary Wang Daoran and Mayor Zhang Liwei also made innovative efforts.

The "Party Member Commando" plan and activity implementation details proposed by Zhou Zhiyuan were fully accepted and promoted by the Yuebei Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government.

What's more, Secretary Wang Daoran's surname is also Wang, and the internet is buzzing with rumors, with all sorts of things being said. Some people even spread rumors that Secretary Wang Daoran is Mr. Wang's illegitimate son. This is really too much!

Shortly thereafter, the Central Inspection Team entered Qinqi Province, and even dispatched inspection teams to all districts, counties, and cities across the province!

The weird Mr. Wang has indeed affected the progress and implementation of the "Party Member Commando"'s application to the central government.

Finally, the Central Committee approved that the "Party Member Commando" has the spirit of old revolutionary traditions and is worthy of promotion and dissemination, but in view of the decline and weakening of the "Party Member Commitment System" and the fact that formalism outweighs pragmatism, it is limited to promotion and dissemination throughout Qinqi Province.

When Zhou Zhiyuan saw the approval letter, he felt very lucky!

Since Zhou Zhiyuan rescued Zheng Xiaoting, he has felt more and more lucky.

Look, from top to bottom, there are a series of rewards that are overwhelming.

The most valuable reward is a bonus of 100,000 yuan and the medal for the most outstanding party member at the grassroots level across the country.

Zheng Xiaoting contributed to this, and of course, Secretary Zheng Xiaoting also received a lot of rewards.

Shortly after Zhou Zhiyuan received the National Medal for the Most Outstanding Party Member at the Grassroots Level, he was summoned for a talk by the inspection team stationed in Saikun County.

Wen Hui, Wen Jun, Wen Tai, Nangong Hongtu and others wished that Zhou Zhiyuan, Zheng Xiaoting, Zhao Dongzhi, Zhao Donglai and others would be taken away.

They overestimated the help Zhao Dongzhi and Zhao Donglai would provide to Zhou Zhiyuan. From then on, Zhao Donglai and Zhao Dongzhi were unwilling to help Zhou Zhiyuan, and in fact they could not provide any help!

The Zhao and Zhou families almost stopped interacting with each other, but Zhou Zhiyuan and Zhao Jing's marriage still lasted.

It's not that Zhao Donglai and Li Xuemei don't want Zhao Jing to divorce, but Zhao Jing refuses to divorce Zhou Zhiyuan. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that Zhao Jing fell in love with Zhou Zhiyuan at first sight when she was typing in Saishang Town.

As a woman, no matter how much plastic surgery she has, she knows who she is.

Since Zhao Jing was able to transform herself into the Korean beauty star Song Hye Kyo, whom Zhou Zhiyuan really likes, it means that although Zhao Jing appears to be a shrew, deep down she actually loved or still loves Zhou Zhiyuan.

Unfortunately, Zhou Zhiyuan became less and less fond of going home and became a complete workaholic.

Zhao Dongzhi and Zhao Donglai often complained to County Magistrate Huyan Junjie about Zhou Zhiyuan's absence. However, Huyan Junjie simply smiled and said, "It's difficult for an honest judge to judge family affairs. It's normal for couples to have some disagreements. Besides, as far as I know, Zhou Zhiyuan doesn't have any hobbies in that area. He's more of a workaholic!"

The words of County Party Secretary Gao Shanfeng are exactly the same as those of County Magistrate Huyan Junjie. Anyway, they feel that it is difficult for an honest official to settle family disputes, and every family has its own problems!

Secretary Zheng Xiaoting looked into Zhou Zhiyuan's eyes lovingly and whispered, "Why don't you go home?"

"Secretary Zheng, you're asking even though you already know the answer. It's a cold place, and you'll be alone anyway. You might as well stay in the office. Besides, don't you dislike going home?"

Zhou Zhiyuan smiled slightly and said helplessly, who wants to have a cold stove?

Zheng Xiaoting shrugged and said with a smile: "Comrade Zhou Zhiyuan, I am different from you."

"Yeah, it's definitely different. You're so high up there, and I'm just a deputy section chief. I'm afraid I'll be lucky if I end up retiring at the level of a section chief or even a deputy county magistrate!"

Zhou Zhiyuan said this because he can see the end of many things at a glance.

Even if Zhou Zhiyuan won the "National Most Outstanding Party Member Medal at the Grassroots Level", in Saikun County, if he wants to rise step by step, he must have someone behind him to support him!

Zhao Dongzhi and Zhao Donglai did not help but instead did bad things, just like Wen Tai, Nangong Hongtu and others.

"Oh my God, Deputy Secretary Zhou, what's wrong with you? Why are you speaking so harshly?" Zheng Xiaoting murmured with a charming smile.

"Secretary Zheng, to be honest, I am physically and mentally exhausted. I always feel something is wrong. My hair has become a lot thinner. I think my brother Zhou Zhibiao and his wife Li Hui live a more fulfilling life than I do!" said Zhou Zhiyuan.

"Zhou Zhiyuan, it's still early! If you don't mind, how about following me all the way?"

Zheng Xiaoting looked at Zhou Zhiyuan's eyes with affection, and the feeling of gratitude spread between her eyes and heart.
