When Guo Yan returned to the private room, Zhou Chao and his group had already finished their meal and were engaged in a casual conversation.
"Is everything done?"
"Yeah, just had to sign a few papers."
"Now that everything's settled, we should head out," Zhou Chao's group got up and walked towards the exit.
Just as they left the private room, they ran into a delighted Wang Qiang.
"Mr. Zhou, have you finished your meal?"
"Yeah, could you please check how much we've spent on this table?"
Hearing that Zhou Chao wanted to settle the bill, Wang Qiang quickly said, "Mr. Zhou, I can't accept your money. To have you dining at my place is already a great honor. If Chairman Qin found out I charged you, he'd probably skin me alive."
Zhou Chao didn't insist and just nodded, saying, "Well done on your restaurant. The food was good. Keep up the good work."
