Xiao Xue had already arranged a place in town, so when Zhou Qing and his party got in the car, they headed towards the restaurant.
Apart from Xiao Xue and Lin Fang, several members of the town's party committee had also come.
The private room was now filled with quite a few people.
"Let's start eating."
Seeing that everyone was hesitating to pick up their chopsticks, Zhou Qing said with a smile, prompting everyone to begin eating.
"Section Chief Zhou, I'd like to toast to you!"
Sitting beside Zhou Qing, Xiao Xue was the first to pick up her glass and said.
"Secretary Xiao is being too polite. I still need to inspect the area this afternoon, plus I drove here, so I'll stick with tea instead of alcohol," Zhou Qing replied as he picked up his tea cup and clinked it with Xiao Xue's glass.
Xiao Xue, on the other hand, was straightforward and downed her glass of liquor in one go.
