Chapter 1011 - 1011 967 The two sessions of Hongjiang River

?Chapter 1011: Chapter 967: The two sessions of Hongjiang River Chapter 1011: Chapter 967: The two sessions of Hongjiang River Fang Maotang’s words caused Liu Yong’s expression to darken, as natural dissatisfaction welled up within him. Originally, Liu Yong had come with the hope that the old master would take a stand for him. After all, the old master was once one of the “Nine Tripods,” and moreover, had held a very high rank, being the number four leader within the Party. Though retired, his prestige remained intact. Both Director Shen and the current Comrade Qiao Yiren would, to a greater or lesser degree, show him some respect.

However, now that the old master had spoken like this, urging him to step back, the message was crystal clear – he hoped Liu Yong wouldn’t allow his relationship with Nie Zhenbang to sour.

After pondering for a moment, Liu Yong nodded his head, choosing not to express his discontent. He understood this much restraint. The old master valued him because of their past connection, a man who remembered old loyalties. However, if Liu Yong truly believed that this bond allowed him to act recklessly, sooner or later, that old connection would be utterly depleted.

Therefore, at this moment, Liu Yong nodded and said, “Uncle Mao, I understand.”

His words were succinct and direct, clearly conveying his understanding. Liu Yong’s response was decisively brisk, without a trace of hesitation.

Being old, I’m starting to feel the decline in my health, and find myself increasingly nostalgic for the scenery of the Hongjiang River.”

These words took Liu Yong by surprise, but after a moment, his face showed delight. Uncle Mao’s unexpected remarks made Liu Yong think that maybe he wouldn’t have to back down after all, and instead, they sparked a new sense of anticipation. At such a critical moment, with the old master planning a stay in Hongjiang, and coincidentally right when the Hongjiang congresses were about to convene, it was impossible for Liu Yong to believe there wasn’t some implication to it.
