This year's annual meeting was very grand; they booked an entire hotel, and Xu Xiu attended with Xiao Ruoyan.
The future boss's wife will appear sooner or later, so it's good to get to know her beforehand.
The first prize at the annual meeting was a car worth over 100,000 yuan. Pang Wenjun shamelessly followed Han Yun to the venue.
Wen Zhicai had some family matters to attend to this year and had already returned home ahead of schedule.
Xiao Xu and Du Yuanyuan were out fooling around somewhere, and the person at the main table wearing a matching outfit attracted everyone's attention.
The company-arranged emcee gave the opening remarks on stage, and after completing the formalities, directly called Xu Xiu up.
After Xu Xiu took the stage, everyone eagerly awaited what the boss would say.
He simply said, "I wish everyone a good meal and drinks, and that you all win a big prize."
Everyone was stunned by these words. Was the big boss serious? Xu Xiu looked at the surprised expressions on the faces of the audience.
He continued with a smile, "It's the annual party. Everyone has worked hard all year. Today, there are no superiors or subordinates, only friends and brothers and sisters. I hope everyone can forget about everything today."
"Eat and drink as much as you want, having fun tonight is the most important thing."
Upon hearing the boss's words, the employees below the stage could hardly believe it. The executives dropped their airs and rolled up their sleeves, ready to get to work.
Bai Yushu and Gu Xin had already started drinking. With the company's second-in-command so relaxed, the employees below also began to visit each other's tables.
They started greeting familiar colleagues, and some even confessed their feelings to male or female colleagues they liked, fueled by alcohol.
For the first and second prize draw, the host directly called Xu Xiu and Xiao Ruoyan up on stage to draw the prizes.
Xu Xiu told the boss to open the biggest prize first, and casually took a supplementary card from the invitation and handed it to the host.
The host looked at the numbers on the screen and announced, "Congratulations, [name]'s colleague has won the first prize."
As soon as he finished speaking, the people below the stage began to stir, and they all took out their invitation cards.
Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, "Old Xu, it's me! I won... I won the lottery!"
Xu Xiu looked in the direction of the sound and found that Pang Wenjun was shouting. Xu Xiu quickly took out the host's microphone.
"This number is invalid. I'll draw another one. This guy is my roommate. We should keep the prize in the company. It has to be one of the company's cuties who wins."
Xu Xiu's words silenced the audience for a few seconds before erupting into enthusiastic shouts, with every employee incredibly excited.
At first, they thought that such a big prize was probably predetermined or had some inside story, and that it shouldn't be available to ordinary employees like them.
Pang Wenjun could hardly believe his ears; three years of relationship!
Seeing Pang Wenjun's utterly dejected expression, Han Yun didn't offer any comfort. Instead, she felt that Lao Xu was right to do the right thing; giving the car to Pang Wenjun was a waste.
Xu Xiu drew another ticket, and it turned out that one of the female staff members in the administration department had won; she had recently gotten her driver's license.
He was so excited that his colleagues looked at him with envy.
Now everyone knows there's definitely no inside story; it really all comes down to luck. Xiao Ruoyan starts drawing the second prize.
The second prize was 60,000 yuan in cash, and it was won by a male colleague from the technical department.
After the subsequent awards were announced, it was discovered that they were all awarded to ordinary employees, which raised questions among everyone.
The host on stage began to explain, "Aren't you all wondering why it's all ordinary employees who won the prizes?"
"Actually, none of our boss's, all the senior executives, and the management team's votes were put into the raffle box."
"Therefore, everyone is competing fairly, and it all depends on luck."
The employees in the audience were all incredulous when they heard what the host said.
After the prize draw, the performances began on stage, with each department presenting their own program. Xu Xiu, along with Xiao Ruoyan, went from table to table toasting the guests.
They were all flattered to see the big boss come to toast them, and they all stood up to greet him.
After the toasts, almost all the employees got to know the future boss's wife and the company's big boss, mainly because Xu Xiu rarely came to the company.
Many new employees don't know Xu Xiu well; they can only see him in the employee handbook. Today is the first time they've met him in person.
But the boss is really handsome, and he's still in college. He's practically a rich, handsome, and charming god from an idol drama.
Many female colleagues felt ashamed when they saw the women around the boss. They realized that the women who were good enough for the boss were not comparable to them.
After the annual meeting, the company's cohesion reached a new level.
After the meeting, everyone left with a gift box containing red envelopes. People who didn't know better might have thought they were attending the boss's wedding.
After Xu Xiu left the hotel, he noticed Pang Wenjun not far away, looking at him with an expression as if he had seen his father's killer.
Seeing Xu Xiu come out, he went straight up to him, and Han Yun quickly followed, afraid that Pang Wenjun might do something.
As a result, Pang Wenjun walked up to Xu Xiu and burst into tears.
"Old Xu, we've been together for three years, how could you do this?"
"No, I remember when the invitations were sent out, you weren't among them, were you?"
Xu Xiu asked in confusion.
"Um, that's not the point. The point is our relationship."
Pang Wenjun said guiltily.
"Feelings? Well, there's even less to say. What feelings do we have between us?"
Pang Wenjun: "..."
"Oh right, Lao Pang still owes me 300,000."
Pang Wenjun: "..."
Seeing that Pang Wenjun didn't speak, Xu Xiu ignored him and prepared to go back to school with Xiao Ruoyan.
As a result, Pang Wenjun sighed behind his back, "Sure enough, men with money turn bad."
"Wenjun, are you talking about yourself?"
Han Yun immediately helped Xu repair the wound.
"Yun'er, Lao Xu has treated me like this, and you're still taking his side?"
"Alright, Wenjun, stop acting innocent after getting the benefit. Old Xu's actions show he doesn't consider you an outsider. You'd better be happy about this from now on."
Han Yun's words made Pang Wenjun fall into deep thought.
Back at school, Xu Xiu and Xiao Ruoyan went straight to the staff dormitory to sleep. Xu Xiu had drunk quite a bit that day, and he was a little unsteady on his feet when he left the hotel.
But once back in the staff dormitory, he became energetic again. Xiao Ruoyan asked in confusion, "Xiu, what's wrong with you?"
"Even if I have a 100% alcohol tolerance, I can only show others that I only have a 50% tolerance."
"We have to keep some cards up our sleeve."
Xu Xiu had barely finished speaking when Xiao Ruoyan blurted out a comment.
"Men are inherently bad, but businessmen are even worse."
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiu turned around and looked at Xiao Ruoyan, saying with ill intent, "Yes, men are inherently bad."
"Xiu, what... what do you want to do?"
"Of course, it's about doing what bad men do."
"Ahhh, Xiu, I know I was wrong."
"Hehe, it's too late to admit your mistake now."
"You haven't taken a shower yet?"
"Ah, then let's shower together."
"don't want......"
The two of them were playfully fighting on the sofa, but in the end Xiao Ruoyan was defeated; she was no match for the experienced driver.
After one night, Xiao Ruoyan had a deeper understanding of bad men.
