Chapter 2297 - 2297:

On this side, after Lu Liang was briefed on the situation, he felt much more at ease.

At least it seemed that Liu Zhizhong was not staying at the Shell Hotel, so he and Gu Yan probably weren't having an affair, right?

Initially, he could have just called off his people.

However, he still instructed his subordinates to follow and see where Liu Zhizhong was staying in the Provincial City this time.

As a result, his subordinates had a bit of bad luck.

After Liu Zhizhong left, he noticed the Audi car that was following him still lurking in the shadows.

He walked over and instructed the taxi driver to wait for him at the entrance of a mall ahead, as he had some personal matters to attend to.

So, Liu Zhizhong left through an alley next to the hotel, obviously empty-handed.

But when the taxi left, Lu Liang's subordinates mistakenly thought the taxi had taken Liu Zhizhong to his destination, while Liu Zhizhong was on foot.

Could Liu Zhizhong be staying in one of these ordinary hotels here?

In these two subordinates' understanding, Mr. Lu had mentioned Liu Zhizhong's situation; he was just a penniless guy in the officialdom and couldn't afford to stay in a luxurious hotel like the Shell Hotel. But what if he really was having an affair with Gu Yan, and they each stayed separately and met in secret?

Thus, they followed Mr. Lu's instructions to handle the matter. The Audi started and continued to follow Liu Zhizhong.

Before long, Liu Zhizhong entered a small alley, and it was naturally impossible for their car to drive in.

They parked the car by the roadside and decided to follow Liu Zhizhong on foot.

However, when they entered the alley, damn... it was a street full of food stalls. Various enticing aromas wafted through, and with people coming and going, all they could see was the shadow of Liu Zhizhong.

By the time they followed for less than a hundred meters, they completely lost sight of Liu Zhizhong.

They walked through the entire street but still couldn't see where Liu Zhizhong was, so they were a bit flustered.

What to do?

They lost him!

They could only shake their heads in frustration and go back to the car. There didn't seem to be any decent small hotels in this area, so they guessed Liu Zhizhong took a taxi and left from the other side of the alley?

Back in the car, the guy in the driver's seat suddenly remembered and slapped his thigh.

"Hah! We're such idiots! Liu Zhizhong must have known we were following, so he played a little trick and ditched us!"

"What? Why do you say that?"

"He sent the taxi away, but his suitcase was still in the taxi and wasn't taken out, right? Just now, I guess he asked the taxi to pick him up from the other side of the alley and left!"

"Damn, did we lose him? That bastard is really smart! Could he have gone back to the Shell Hotel again? Damn, is he really having an affair with Gu Yan?"

"That was nicely played! He managed to play us completely! Let's go back to the Shell Hotel and check. If we find out they're staying in the same hotel, or in the same room, hahaha, he's in for it. Watch me break his damn leg for Mr. Lu!"

"Break his third leg, hahaha..."

The two laughed loudly, and the guy in the driver's seat lit a cigarette, prepared to set off. They had been chasing Liu Zhizhong so urgently earlier, they didn't even turn off the car.

Just then, Liu Zhizhong's voice came from the backseat.

"You two really are scum! Gu Yan and I are pure, and you speak and act so disgustingly?"

"Ah..."

The two were immediately taken aback, turning their heads in unison to look back.

They saw Liu Zhizhong sitting right in the middle of the back seat, a face of indifferent amusement, looking at them!

"You...how did you get in the car?"

Liu Zhizhong said coldly, "I came over right after I ditched you. Thanks to you not turning off the engine, I just opened the door and came in. So, gentlemen, is helping my junior brother with these things very amusing?"

The two guys were embarrassed, their faces truly losing their luster!

However, the guy driving was still tough, gritted his teeth, and said, "We took Mr. Lu's money to do his task. Whether we do it well or not is our business. Now that you've discovered us, we're not hiding it anymore. You've heard what you should, now what can you do to us? But you should get out of the car, don't linger here. You can't afford to mess with us and Mr. Lu!"

The guy in the passenger seat immediately added, "Exactly! You, of course, don't have the qualifications to steal a woman from Mr. Lu, right? Get out, quickly!"

Liu Zhizhong nodded, "Fine, I should get out of the car. But I warn you, don't follow me again, or it won't end well. Also, advise your Mr. Lu not to bother Gu Yan anymore, it won't end well."

"Who do you think you are to threaten us? Get out of the car and see who is threatening whom? Today, we are going to follow you, so what?"

Liu Zhizhong thought for a moment, then chuckled coldly and nodded, "Alright, I won't argue with you now, I'm getting out. If you want to follow me..."

"Haha... Is calling the police all you can do? Besides calling the police, what else can you do? Hahaha..."

The two laughed loudly.

Liu Zhizhong didn't bother with them and smiled coldly, got out of the car, and headed towards the mall, planning to meet up with the taxi driver.

Meanwhile, the two drove their car, leisurely following Liu Zhizhong, little knowing that they were really courting disaster, haha...

As Liu Zhizhong walked, he sent a message to Wang Chenglong.

Because he had given technology shares and offered two hundred million, Liu Zhizhong had already exchanged calls with Wang Qichang's son, Wang Chenglong, and added each other as friends.

Wang Longcheng was indeed an exceptional son of an official family, very adept at handling things. He also listened to his father and treated Zhang Qidong and Liu Zhizhong as his own people.

Liu Zhizhong messaged Wang Chenglong, explaining the situation, hoping that President Wang could think of a way to give those two followers a lesson in the Provincial City.

Wang Chenglong replied almost instantly, saying no problem, Brother Zhizhong's matter was his matter.

Then he asked about the Audi's license plate number and told Liu Zhizhong to just arrange his schedule well without delaying the dinner party tonight; everything else, he would handle.

Liu Zhizhong thanked Brother Wang, reported their license plate number, and then, as requested, activated location sharing with Wang Chenglong, and quickly took long strides, walking five or six hundred meters, got into a taxi, and headed to the Moon Viewing Hotel first.

Originally, Wang Chenglong said he would come to pick up Liu Zhizhong himself, but Liu Zhizhong said it was fine, he had called a taxi, and it wouldn't affect anything.

So, the taxi driver continued to drive Liu Zhizhong toward the Moon Viewing Hotel, going quite steadily. Lu Liang's two subordinates drove behind, ostentatiously following; weren't they boasting mightily?

However, less than twenty minutes later, as they approached the western suburbs of the Provincial City, Wang Chenglong's method of dealing with them took effect, truly leaving Liu Zhizhong in awe...
