He hurriedly grabbed Minister Zhou's hand, "Minister Zhou, what happened to Xiao Zhang? Why was he admitted to the hospital?"
Minister Zhou's nostrils flared slightly, and he glared at Mayor Zheng, saying, "Xiao Zhang was ambushed and beaten by several strangers in the stairwell last night after leaving your home. If it weren't for the security guards discovering him in time and calling an ambulance, he would be in a vegetative state by now!"
"I will have someone investigate this matter. Zheng Bihui, you had better pray that you truly have nothing to do with this."
With those words, Minister Zhou turned and left.
He did not utter any threats, but Mayor Zheng knew very well that if this incident were indeed traced back to him, considering Minister Zhou's influence in Lingjiang, even his personal safety would be in great jeopardy.
Mayor Zheng was so frustrated he felt like vomiting blood.
This situation had absolutely nothing to do with him.
