If there is discord within the City Government, the one who stands to benefit the most is undoubtedly Zhou Zheng.
He had long heard that Zhou Zheng held the title of City Secretary, but lacked the actual authority.
On the contrary, Mayor Wu Qiangwei possessed a status that was not inferior to Zhou Zheng's.
No leader would permit others to encroach on their power.
Therefore, when Song Guanchao uttered those words, the first person he thought of was Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng indeed has the motive.
He and Wu Qiangwei clashing essentially alleviates some of the pressure on Zhou Zheng.
If the City Government were united as one, it might not be beneficial to Zhou Zheng.
Yet, although he understood the reasoning, his subconscious still believed that Wu Qiangwei orchestrating events personally was more plausible.
He tended to believe in her self-staging mainly due to the surveillance he discovered at his home shortly after arriving in Jiangzhou.
