Chapter 2164 - 2164

Zhao Yan quickly hugged the unfamiliar Xiao Ke'er tightly, as though they were old classmates reunited.

About twenty meters away, two female bodyguards saw this and felt much more at ease. They cautiously scanned the surroundings, maintaining their professional vigilance.

Of course, at this time, there were also security personnel secretly stationed around.

The security measures for the daughter of Gu Changsha going out were indeed exceptionally tight, without question.

Liu Zhizhong had just been in the pavilion with the female Wolong, and he already felt someone secretly watching them.

These people must have come after he contacted Zhao Yan. Clearly, Liu Zhizhong is a battle-hardened veteran who has seen every kind of situation. He understood that his wife's security is both overt and covert, so seeing her is really difficult, truly not easy. It's best not to say much or expose any weaknesses!

Thus, when Zhao Yan hugged Xiao Ke'er, Liu Zhizhong could only maintain a gentlemanly demeanor, smiling quietly while standing beside his "wife."

After a while, Xiao Ke'er held Zhao Yan's hand and introduced, "Come, Zhao Yan, meet my husband, Liu Dongqiang. Dongqiang, this is the dance prodigy Zhao Yan, whom I often tell you about."

Only then did Liu Zhizhong extend his hand, smiling as he shook his wife's hand, his heart melting pleasantly.

Their tender, soft hands were extremely moist and delicate, truly beyond description.

But, unfortunately, it was just a handshake and done, with a few courteous formalities, very proper and gentlemanly.

When her husband shook her hand like this, Zhao Yan's heart raced, and tears nearly welled up.

Her husband's hand was still so long and strong, as beautiful as ever.

It seemed, even after so many years of marriage, it was rare for the couple to hold hands!

In the blink of an eye, he had become a world-famous political figure, a global celebrity, free and fulfilled; while she had become a princess, like a bird in a cage... sigh...

Nevertheless, Zhao Yan managed her emotions, as the warmth of the handshake had already halved her longing.

She politely withdrew her hand, then sat down with the "Liu Zhizhong couple" to chat casually.

Liu Zhizhong knew how to converse.

The female Wolong also knew how to converse.

Zhao Yan was also clear-headed, making the overt and covert bodyguards feel quite assured.

After all, at this moment, Liu Zhizhong could be close to his wife, inhaling her fragrance, listening to her voice, and had already felt satisfied.

And Zhao Yan felt the same, didn't she? She also knew there was security everywhere and couldn't act recklessly, oh~~~

Soon, as the three were having a pleasant conversation, a person walked over from a distance.

Who else could it be but Chen Shi?

Upon his arrival, both overt and covert security recognized him. Wasn't this the cousin of the young lady, Mr. Chen?

Thus, letting him pass was naturally the right thing to do.

From afar, Chen Shi called out, "Hey, cousin, with old classmates here, why didn't you let me know in advance so I could host and show some hospitality? Haha... Well, well, it's time for supper, and I've got everything ready. Why don't we all join?"

This guy, with a familiar demeanor, walked straight into the pavilion.

Well, the person who had come to catch someone and the person about to be caught actually met in advance.

Is this a dilemma set for Liu Zhizhong?

Haha...

President Liu has been through countless trials and tribulations; would he give himself a chance to be embarrassed?

Seeing Chen Shi's arrival, Zhao Yan, along with the Liu Zhizhong couple, also stood up. Decorum in such a scene was necessary for everyone.

Thus, Zhao Yan quickly introduced Xiao Ke'er and Liu Dongqiang while also introducing Chen Shi.

Liu Dongqiang nodded, smiled, and said, "I have long admired Mr. Chen's name; Young Master Group is renowned at home and abroad!"

Such introductory handshakes and polite exchanges are, of course, indispensable, aren't they?

Xiao Ke'er also shook hands with Chen Shi and exchanged some courtesies.

Liu Zhizhong just found fate amusing, letting him meet Chen Shi like this. But it was really nothing significant; in such a scene, he didn't feel flustered at all!

Chen Shi appeared very enthusiastic, even though Zhao Yan mentioned that they had already eaten supper, and the Liu Zhizhong couple also said they had eaten and didn't want to bother, Chen Shi insisted, having prepared everything, expressing that rare meetings should be enjoyed together without much delay, since he had important business to attend to the next day.

Well, since that was the case, Liu Zhizhong and Xiao Ke'er didn't refuse, and Zhao Yan couldn't insist on not going.

So, the four left the pavilion and went directly to a renowned Southwest Asian-styled restaurant in a five-star hotel.

Upon entering the restaurant, it was indeed evident that Chen Shi arranged everything, as he had booked the entire restaurant, with no outsiders present!

The private room was spacious, a seaside dining room with a superb night view and excellent cuisine.

The group sat down, chatting casually and nibbling on some food at leisure.

Zhao Yan maintained herself well, consuming little carbohydrates and proteins, only eating a coarse-fiber Southwest Asian pie.

Liu Zhizhong, meanwhile, faced with some famous late-night snacks from Valle, was quite sentimental, eating and drinking as he saw fit.

What did they talk about? Mostly life and work-related topics, it seemed.

Chen Shi conversed less with Liu Zhizhong/Xiao Ke'er, mainly having a general understanding of them and expressing possible future opportunities for collaboration.

Xiao Ke'er was the vice-principal of an art training center, also majoring in dance and teaching it, according to her profile.

Liu Zhizhong, on the other hand, claimed to work at a financial company, in charge of data-related matters.

Of course, these identities did not attract Chen Shi's attention, and were perhaps just a formality.

Chen Shi's main goal was to cater to his cousin well. She was like a golden goose, and serving her well was crucial.

After finishing the late-night meal, it was also time for everyone to part ways.

Chen Shi and Zhao Yan together shook hands with Liu Zhizhong/Xiao Ke'er in farewell.

The farewell handshake was difficult for Liu Zhizhong to let go, and the same for Zhao Yan!

However, Chen Shi said to Liu Zhizhong, "Manager Liu, goodbye!"

Liu Zhizhong smiled and replied, "Okay, Mr. Chen, goodbye, haha..."

In his heart, Liu Zhizhong chuckled secretly; they were sure to meet again. Once you're done with your show-off legacy tomorrow, we will meet again, haha...

Just like that, Liu Zhizhong, satisfied, had seen his beloved.

He left the hotel accompanied by Xiao Ke'er, getting into Wen Bao's car and leaving.

A female Wolong like Xiao Ke'er continued to stay, dedicated to her duties and cherishing the beautiful dream of moving her whole family abroad in four more years.

Of course, before parting, Liu Zhizhong reassured her not to worry about his identity, as Chen Shi would not return here by noon the next day; he would be facing legal consequences.

For the overseas Wolong contact, of course, Xiao Ke'er believed him. She just didn't know Liu Zhizhong's true identity; if she did, haha, what would her expression be? Haha...
