"Old He, there's no need for formalities with me," said Principal Zhou. "I came specifically to offer my congratulations, not for a meal. Finding a familiar face to sit with and chat is good enough."
Principal Zhou glanced around and headed straight to the table where Song Xiufeng and Ning Anping were seated, asking someone to add a chair.
There were eight people at the table from both official and business circles, and he knew seven of them.
Moreover, he had quite good relations with them.
He didn't recognize Ning Anping as Lin Shu, whom Song Xiufeng had previously asked him to inquire about, but he didn't mind showing his enthusiasm. "Ms. Ning, the Chairwoman of Xiulin Group, the richest woman, your reputation precedes you. Seeing you today, one can truly say that your reputation is well-deserved."
