Bai Zhizhan did not agree on the spot, only saying he would consider it. Liu Changxun did not pressure him either.
Actually, there was nothing much to consider.
Finally, as evening approached and Bai Zhizhan was preparing to leave work, Zheng Jiangming came to him, mentioning that an old friend had returned to the Imperial Capital and they had arranged to have dinner together.
As for who it was, Zheng Jiangming did not say, simply telling Bai Zhizhan he would find out when he arrived.
Bai Zhizhan was quite frustrated, but he could not refuse.
Besides, other than returning to the hotel, he really did not know where else to go in the evening.
They did not go anywhere else but to the restaurant across from the hotel, where they had reserved a private room. Zheng Jiangming had made the arrangements beforehand, even taking care of the food and drinks.
Later, Bai Zhizhan found out that the "old friend" was Wang Kaiyuan.
