Lu Feng clinked glasses with him but didn't say a word. Naturally, when he returned to his wife, he was met with a barrage of complaints.
Some were eloquent and flattering, some were honest and straightforward, and some simply wanted to clink glasses with Lu Feng.
"Next, please welcome our leaders, General Manager Wei and General Manager Zhu, to perform breakdancing for us!"
The meal was almost finished, and cheers continued, bringing the annual meeting to a climax. On stage, Zhu Lidong, Wei Yandan, Liu Cheng, and their group donned dramatic gloves, jackets, and pants...
The group's dancing was mediocre, but the stage effect was excellent. Lu Feng stood up and applauded. As the dance ended, Zhu Lidong, wanting to stir things up, grabbed the microphone and shouted, "How about Mr. Lu performs one?"
The crowd immediately erupted in cheers, urging President Lu to sing a song. Lu Feng couldn't refuse, so he stepped onto the stage, took the microphone, and said with emotion, "In just a few hours, it will be 1994. We've come another year. This year has been full of ups and downs. Before the end of the year, the headquarters was completed. First of all, on behalf of the company's senior management, I would like to thank all the employees who have worked hard for Jiafeng Electronics. Thank you!"
Applause erupted from the audience.
"The annual meeting is all about having fun, so I won't say too much to avoid sounding like a leader giving a speech. If we're going to sing, I'll sing 'Ninth Sister' for everyone!" Lu Feng gestured to the sound engineer.
The sound engineer jogged over and whispered, "Mr. Lu, I've never heard of this song, and it's not on today's CD."
Lu Feng paused for a moment, then realized that "Ninth Sister" was released in 1996, and asked, "Then what are the most popular songs this year?"
"How about you sing 'The New Butterfly Lovers' Dream'?" the sound engineer suggested.
"OK!"
As the music started, Lu Feng picked up the microphone and began to sing.
Yesterday, like the flowing water of the East River, has gone far away from me and will never return; today, it troubles my heart, filling me with sorrow...
"Drawing a sword to cut water only makes it flow more; raising a cup to drown sorrow only makes it more bitter; tomorrow, the clear breeze will carry me away..."
.........
At 9:30 p.m., the annual meeting was still going on. Lu Feng had already left early. After the noise and commotion, there was only loneliness. A cold wind blew in from outside the hotel. Lu Feng tightened his woolen coat and got into the car.
Sitting in his car, smoking a cigarette, he felt somewhat bored. He didn't want to go back to the company, but he didn't know where to go. He drove around the city with the window down, letting the cold wind blow on his face, listening to the car radio.
"Welcome to 'Intimate Guest'. I'm your old friend An'an. I'm sure everyone is at home now. There are only two hours left until 1994. I wonder how you feel as you welcome the new year."
"An An believes that life is like a journey. No matter the good or the bad, we should keep moving forward. The bad things in life may become the motivation for good things tomorrow. In any case, 1993 is about to become history. Many years later, when you look back on this year, what will you feel?"
"Let's say goodbye with a song at the end of the program. Dear listeners, see you in 1994."
Lu Feng drove and unknowingly stopped in front of the villa. The house was pitch black and had been silent for more than half a year. To Lu Feng's surprise, the house next door was lit up.
After getting out of the car, Lu Feng walked towards the villa next door and saw that the curtains on the floor-to-ceiling windows on the first floor were drawn, but they were not completely closed. Lu Feng pressed his face against the glass and stared intently at a small gap in the window.
"Hey! Who is it!"
Screams erupted from inside the house.
"Pervert! Catch the pervert!!"
Lu Feng recognized Jin Tingting's voice and quickly called out, "Don't shout, it's me, Lu Feng!"
The door opened a crack, and Jin Tingting peeked out to make sure it was Lu Feng before opening the door completely. She said with lingering fear, "Mr. Lu, why do you have this hobby? Who peeks through someone's window crack?"
Lu Feng looked embarrassed and coughed, saying, "Well, I just saw the light was on and thought a thief had broken in. When did you move in?"
"I just moved in a few days ago, it's just a temporary stay." Jin Tingting looked at Lu Feng with some embarrassment. It was so late, one of them was inside the door and the other was outside. It wouldn't be appropriate to invite him in to sit for a while, as it was a man and a woman alone. But if she didn't make himself at home, she would feel like she was being disrespectful.
However, thinking that Lu Feng was a sensible person, she politely said, "Why don't you come in and sit for a while?"
"good!"
As Lu Feng spoke, he pulled open the door and went inside.
