After Director Huang left, Song Guanchao said, "Director Bai, please stay. Secretary Xie and Secretary Zhang, please wait outside."
After speaking, he picked up his teacup and took a light sip.
Director Bai looked at Cao Xiaolou, feeling uneasy, and said, "Director Song, would you like to grab a bite first?"
Song Guanchao smiled and said, "County Magistrate Cao, you go ahead and eat. I'll handle things here first."
"Alright, I'll ask the cafeteria to set aside some food."
Cao Xiaolou had no choice but to leave first.
Secretary Xie and Zhang Maohua exchanged a glance and also left the conference room.
As Gao Qi was about to leave, Song Guanchao said, "Please escort Mr. Yang."
Gao Qi replied, "Okay."
The remaining people left.
The conference room was left with only Director Bai, along with others from the city. Suddenly, Director Bai felt a sense of loneliness and helplessness.
"Director Bai, do you know why I asked you to stay?"
Director Bai shook his head.
