This was a small private room with three men sitting inside.
The one facing the door of the private room was a somewhat fat fellow, who was puffing on a Zhonghua cigarette with his head tilted slightly upward, the very image of a petty grassroots official who thinks he's exceptionally important just because he holds some minor authority, an insufferably arrogant type that just begs to be thrashed.
A real high-ranking official would never adopt such an attitude!
The three of them had been talking when suddenly the door to the private room was flung open; they immediately fell silent, turning their eyes toward Ge Dongxu with a mix of confusion and dissatisfaction as they barked, "Who are you? What are you doing coming in here?"
"You must be Chief Liu, right?" Ge Dongxu walked over, pulled out a chair, and sat down, looking at the man puffing on the Zhonghua cigarette across from him with disdain as he asked.
