Chapter 771: Dogfood

The appearance of Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu was so shocking that many people didn’t come back to their senses for a long time.

Naturally, there were all kinds of activities for the annual meeting.

After Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao arrived, they sat in their assigned seats.

The hosts were Li Yuanhang and another female executive. Their hosting skills were pretty good.

“Next, we would like to invite the big boss to come on stage and speak for everyone!”

After Gong Tianhao came on stage, his words were concise and comprehensive. “Hello everyone. I am Gong Tianhao. I am here to thank all of you for your hard work over the past year. I hope that everyone will continue to work hard as usual in the future and develop the beautiful future of the imperial group together.

“I have always followed the same principle: there will always be a reward for the hardworking people. You are all the top executives and elites in the company. As long as you work hard, I will not treat any of you unfairly…”

Gong Tianhao rarely participated in the usual activities, but he would attend the annual meetings. Gong Tianhao did not say anything fancy. He just encouraged everyone to work hard and develop together with the imperial group.

This year, he started his speech the same way. But then, he ended it differently.

Gong Tianhao continued, “Next, let me introduce my wife, Xiao Lingyu!” He personally came down the stage to welcome Xiao Lingyu. Then, the two of them went up together.

Gong Tianhao continued, “This is my wife, Xiao Lingyu. She is also my lover. I hope that everyone in the company will respect her as they respect me when they see her.”

Gong Tianhao was telling everyone that Xiao Lingyu was his lover. He was also telling everyone that if anyone dared to offend her, he would not be polite.

“Hello, everyone. I am Xiao Lingyu!” Xiao Lingyu smiled and greeted everyone. She continued, “If your big boss bullies you, feel free to tell me. I will take care of him for you!”

“Haha…” As soon as Xiao Lingyu finished speaking, the audience burst into laughter.

The joke reflected the fact that the relationship between the boss and the Lady Boss was good. The boss indeed loved the lady boss deeply.

Gong Tianhao’s expression was as gentle as water, and his eyes were extremely doting. He stared at his wife, who had made a joke of him. He didn’t mind it. He even enjoyed this feeling.

In the end, Gong Tianhao added, “Your lady boss might make me kneel to pay penance. So, for the sake of our harmonious relationship, you shouldn’t bother her anymore.”

As soon as Gong Tianhao finished speaking, the entire place fell silent. Everyone’s pupils contracted as if they had seen a ghost. They were in disbelief.

‘Big Boss… is he making a joke?’

‘Damn, our cold and ruthless big boss knows how to make a joke?’

Then, there was a small discussion.

“Did you guys notice that Big Boss’s expression when he looked at the lady boss? It was so gentle!”

“It was so sweet that our teeth hurt. Every hero falls for a beauty. Who would have thought our wise, divine, handsome, and ruthless big boss would one day fall for beauty too?”

“Hehe… the way the big boss looked at the lady boss was really too sweet. But did you guys feel… feel…”

“Feel what?” The colleague next to him asked in puzzlement.

The man rolled his eyes, then covered his mouth and said with a smile, “Don’t you feel that the big boss and his wife are purposely showing off?”

“Now that you mention it, it does feel that way. Now I’m sad because it reminds me of how single I am.”

“By the way, the lady boss is so beautiful and amazing. It is not surprising that our Big Boss fell for her.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a colleague beside her frowned slightly and asked with slight disapproval, “Do you mean that the big boss is only interested in her beauty?”

“I’m just telling the truth. The lady boss is really beautiful.” The person shrugged.

Her colleague was about to say something else when there was a cheer.

It turned out that the lucky draw had begun. The lucky draw was a staple activity in the annual meeting. The Imperial Group was a big business with a lot of money.

Every year, the rewards for the lucky draw were especially big. For example, there was the latest model of a Lamborghini sports car last year. The car was worth millions.

Most of these executives and regional managers earned more than ten million dollars a year, but they wouldn’t splurge on a Lamborghini sports car. Therefore, some of them placed their hope on the lucky draw.

Grand Prize: a Lamborghini Sports Car

First Prize: 5x three months of paid leave.

Second Prize: 10x One Million RMB

Third Prize: 20x 300,000 RMB

The rest is the incentive prize: 100,000 cash. Basically, everyone present would get a prize. Those who can attend the company’s annual meeting are capable, talented, and do not lack money.

Therefore, most people only wished for the sports car and paid leave. Actually more preferred the latter. These people didn’t lack money. What they lacked was time to rest.

The lucky draw was set up. The staff prepared a cardboard box with cards in it. Each person would draw the cards from the box and scratch the cards. Then they would know which prize they had won.

“It’s time to start the lucky draw. I hope I get paid vacation for three months. I’m going abroad to have some fun.”

“Come on. You fly all over the country daily. Haven’t you had enough fun?”

“That’s true, but I fly for work. How can I relax and have fun when I’m working?”

“I also want a three-month paid vacation.”

Most people wanted the first and second prizes.

“Alright. Let’s start the lucky draw now.”

The HR Department manager carried the box and walked around the venue. The first table he visited was occupied by Gong Tianhao and a few major shareholders.

When the box was placed in front of Xiao Lingyu, Xiao Lingyu was stunned. Then she smiled and said, “Can I draw too?”

Gong Tianhao smiled and said, “Yes.”

Xiao Lingyu was a little puzzled as she asked, “Then what if I get the paid leave?”

Everyone, “…”

Then, Xiao Lingyu politely refused, “I’m not going to participate. You can just give me a participation reward.”

Gong Tianhao nodded and told the manager. “Okay, we won’t participate in the lucky draw. You can take it to another table.”

The shareholders were people who didn’t work for a long time and didn’t lack money. They didn’t need to participate in the lucky draw.

“Ah, I won the first prize!” Soon, someone exclaimed excitedly.

“Wow, you’re so lucky!” Many people immediately congratulated him.

“Sigh, I won the third prize!”

“I got the participation prize.”

This lucky draw was about participation. In fact, this was basically the company giving gifts to its workers.

After one round, the results of the lucky draw were clear.

The special prize, first-class prize, and second-class prize prizes were personally distributed by Gong Tianhao. The other prizes were handed out by Li Yuanhang.

After the lucky draw was over, it was time for the dance party.

The opening dance was, of course, led by the Big Boss and the Lady Boss.

Many people knew that Xiao Lingyu was a village girl from the countryside, but they did not know if this village girl knew how to do an international pas de deux.

If she did not dance well, she would be laughed at.

Some people were looking forward to it, but in their hearts, they were disdainful and contemptuous.

‘This woman relies on her looks to make the big boss like her. However, she is most likely a vase. She will embarrass herself and fall out of favor.’ A part of them was looking forward to such a scene.

However, they did not know that Xiao Lingyu had been in the workplace for many years in her previous life. She had seen all kinds of people and faced all kinds of occasions.

When the tango dance song “Poruna Abeza” was played, colorful neon lights rotated and flickered in all directions.

Li Yuanhang held the microphone and said loudly, “Next, Big Boss and Lady Boss will give us an opening dance.”

A wave of cheers sounded.

Gong Tianhao stood up and reached out his hand. He said to Xiao Lingyu in a gentlemanly manner, “Dear beautiful lady, can I invite you to dance?”

The Big Boss’ actions that night shocked many people. It was as though he had changed into a different person.

Some of the employees couldn’t help but complain. ‘The Big Boss needs to stop shoving us with dogfood.’

Many people wanted to see if the lady boss knew how to dance.

Xiao Lingyu smiled and placed her hand in Gong Tianhao’s palm. She smiled and said, “Of course!”

Then, the two of them held hands and walked into the center of the dance floor.

The music started playing again!
