Given the conversation had reached this point, Liu Zhizhong dispensed with the niceties, casting aside all pretense. He requested that, upon the conclusion of his recuperation, he be allowed to return to Yangzhou and become the Executive Deputy Director of Jiangdong District.
Moreover, he expressed the hope that Minister Luo would act fairly to mediate the conflict between him and Zhang Hongyang, hoping that Zhang Hongyang would stop targeting him, so that they both could keep to their own paths without interfering with each other.
Zhang Tianbao assured him that he would discuss these matters with Minister Luo upon returning. Of course, he also mentioned that the news of the highway accident had been suppressed on all platforms, including TikTok, with everything harmonized right from the start.
