He Qing gave a faint smile at the apology from the Party Secretary, stood up from the sofa, and casually said, "It's nothing," then proactively extended her hand.
Seeing He Qing extend her hand, Party Secretary Liao Zhengran and Mayor Li Feng then reached out to shake her hand, though it was only a light touch before they let go, as if fearing to incur her displeasure, displaying the demeanor of subordinates facing their superiors.
After the handshake, He Qing introduced, "Secretary Liao, Mayor Li, let me introduce you to my cousin, Chu Ge. He will be the president of the company I plan to establish in Lidu."
From He Qing's stance, it was evident that she had discussed the company matters with these two city leaders before. Although Chu Ge felt somewhat helpless, since things had progressed to this point, he could only smile at the two and shake their hands.
