Of course, it was only then that Lin Juan remembered that she hadn't turned off her car engine.
So, she followed Liu Zhizhong downstairs to the parking lot to deal with it.
Wearing high heels, Lin Juan stood nearly 1.7 meters tall, and she really had a good figure.
However, her daughter's illness had tormented her for years. At 34, she looked very worn out.
Even her hair had turned gray from all the worry over her daughter, but that had become a distinctive beauty of its own.
Despite wearing a somewhat old light gray knee-length skirt, she still looked chic and graceful.
Her body gave off the scent of Safeguard products, which was pleasant but not overpowering.
Life had not been kind to her, a big sister who once looked very beautiful in Liu Zhizhong's eyes... alas, had fallen on such hard times...
In Lin Juan's eyes, the once dirty little Doggy... ah... had really made something of himself.
Dapper and elegant, with a masculine charm, he looked like a real man, and he didn't even blink at the cost of three million.
The pure light in his eyes gave Lin Juan a feeling of warmth. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵⟡𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⟡𝓷𝓮𝓽
Sometimes, Lin Juan could hardly believe that there was still such a person in this world.
Her daughter's illness had driven her to despair, to the point where she was ready to trade her body for money, but she had not expected to run into Liu Zhizhong at the hospital...
Following Liu Zhizhong downstairs, she felt unusually anxious and inferior and didn't know what to say.
Liu Zhizhong knew she was greatly emotionally distressed and needed to calm down, so he said to Lin Juan as they descended, "Sister Juan, let's not talk about anything else for now. Let's turn off the car and find a quiet place to talk properly."
This cautionary advice was indeed very clever. Liu Zhizhong, with his astute knowledge of officialdom, really understood the ways of the world.
But when the two arrived at the parking lot, they were taken aback, and Lin Juan immediately burst into tears.
When it rains, it pours...
Because she hadn't closed her car window properly, her handbag had been stolen. Inside the bag were her and her child's IDs and over thirty thousand in cash – all the money she had.
Liu Zhizhong quickly patted her shoulder gently and said, "Sister Juan, it's okay, I have a solution. Don't worry, I just need to send a message."
"Ah? You..." Lin Juan was overjoyed, never having expected Liu Zhizhong to have such a response, showing such confidence and power!
What on earth had happened to Doggy over the years? Did he really make it big in the city?
Liu Zhizhong stepped aside and swiftly composed a text message, which he sent to Du Yuesheng's cell phone.
He explained the situation in detail and with accuracy, requesting that if found, it be delivered to Shangpin Cafe on South Street outside the Central Hospital.
And as it happened, Du Yuesheng had just finished a committee meeting. When he saw Liu Zhizhong's message, he was furious.
He immediately summoned the City Committee's deputy secretary in charge of political and legal affairs and the chief of public security, pointed to Liu Zhizhong's message, and said, "Look at this! Just as we've passed the resolution to launch a 60-day crackdown on crime this summer, this happens. It must be dealt with immediately!"
This was a no-brainer; it had to be done immediately!
Du Yuesheng also sent a reply to Liu Zhizhong, indicating that it was received. If the bag couldn't be found, he'd be a mayor in name only. Give him two hours – that would suffice!
In reality, for something like theft at a hospital, the public security system had its own means to handle it quickly, no two hours needed. However, situations vary and sometimes they couldn't be bothered to investigate. But today, heh, the thief had really met his match.
On this end, having received a reply, Liu Zhizhong immediately went back to Lin Juan and said, "Let's go, Sister Juan. We'll find a quiet place to talk. Your bag will be returned within two hours. Come on, lock your car and get in mine."
Lin Juan was genuinely excited, and she couldn't help her curiosity as she asked, "Doggy... oh, I mean, sorry, Zhizhong, who did you send the message to? How can it be so effective?"
