286 cried out in alarm

Zhang Tianbao's expression became serious and focused as he nodded slightly, taking a deep drag of his cigarette.

With the cigarette burnt down to the end, he solemnly snuffed it out in the ashtray.

Liu Zhizhong knew that this situation was out of the ordinary, having grown intimately familiar with the temperaments of leaders and what certain actions signified over his years in officialdom.

There and then, Liu Zhizhong sat up even straighter with impeccable posture, obediently seated just like an elementary school student.

This kind of behavior was most pleasing to leaders.

After all, in this country, leaders need to cultivate their own authoritative image and require subordinates who obediently listen and follow orders.

Your attitude of obediently sitting still is endearing, satisfying the desire for power!

Zhang Tianbao was naturally satisfied with Liu Zhizhong's performance, not to mention that he had always admired the younger man.
