Zhang Tianbao seemed thoughtful and then nodded his head before spreading his hands, "Right now I can't tell you too much. After your manuscript is out, and you've given it to me, I'll give you some clues, okay?"
"Deal!" Liu Zhizhong extended his hand readily.
Zhang Tianbao smiled and really shook his hand, saying, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but as someone who values loyalty and righteousness like you, knowing too much might not be a good thing. You are young and have a great future ahead; you need to cherish your feathers. Although Miss Luo is good, actually... it would be best if you could avoid any further contact or meeting her!"
Liu Zhizhong nodded silently, poured more wine, and raised his glass, "Minister Zhang, rest assured, I am aware of the limits and won't act rashly."
"Hmm, okay then..."
"..."
The two enjoyed their late-night meal, and it was not until midnight that they finished.
