"How do you talk to people?"
"What kind of attitude is this from Jiaolin County?"
"Reimbursement? You want the municipal government office to reimburse you?"
Several people from the municipal government office immediately started berating them!
Every word from Jiaolin County enraged Deputy Director Niu and the people from the municipal government office. This was far too disrespectful to them, and far too disrespectful to the foreign guests! They had actually slapped the meal bill down in front of the foreign guests and everyone else and told them to reimburse it? That was practically a public slap in the face!

Meng Hanmei looked at them. "Secretary Dong said this bill can't go through the county accounts.

If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."
"You people..."
"This is outrageous!"
"Do you have any sense
