Chapter 111
Chapter 111: “Dududu”
Lou Xuanli chose the venue for the annual meeting at a well-known hotel in Nancheng.
The selection of the venue and the setup reflected the company’s lavishness and attention to detail. Additionally, there were expensive and diverse prizes prepared for the annual meeting.
All of this was arranged under Wen Yu’s instructions.
When he arrived, the atmosphere was already lively.
Most of the dozen or so attendees were fresh graduates who had just entered the workforce. Originally worried about their jobs, they were now ecstatic to be part of such a generous “company” both in their daily work and at the annual meeting. Who wouldn’t be thrilled?
Long live the boss!
Lou Xuanli led Wen Yu into the hall. At first, there was a moment of silence, followed by excitement as everyone saw Lou Xuanli leading Wen Yu to the center of the stage with a smile on his face, announcing unexpectedly and yet fittingly:
“Let’s welcome our long-awaited CEO, Wen, to give a speech!”
The crowd went wild. Comments like “so young,” “impressive at such a young age,” and “the boss is quite handsome” filled the air.
Wen Yu was excited too. In his previous life, his always stood below and listened to speeches. Now, he stood at the top.
Following the script he had practiced for the past few days, he delivered an impassioned speech, receiving rounds of applause. After expressing substantial “thanks” to some outstanding employees, he announced major plans for the coming year, including “formal establishment of the company,” “company development direction,” “salary increase,” and “employee welfare plans,” all of which were closely related to everyone present.
The atmosphere of the whole venue immediately reached its peak.
Finally, he raised her glass excitedly, “Here, I also wish everyone a happy Chinese New Year. Next year, we will definitely be better!”
At this moment, the host took over, and the program began.
Wen Yu took his seat and joined in the lively atmosphere of toasting and exchanging cups with everyone.

At nine o’clock in the evening.
After the annual meeting ended, Wen Yu spent a long time singing at the KTV before heading back to Jiangcheng.
He wasn’t into the drinking culture, so despite the enthusiasm of the day, he didn’t drink much.
His mind was clear, and the excitement lingered. His small business was thriving, with high income and smooth sailing. Wen Yu wasn’t overly ambitious and didn’t plan to become one of the Fortune 500 companies overnight. He preferred to take it slow.
It felt like entrepreneurship and making money!
If possible, he even wanted to buy some bitcoins and various currencies in the future, just lying down and making money.
He took out his phone, and it showed a quarter past nine in the evening, and the train back to Jiangcheng hadn’t checked tickets yet.
In the message list, apart from the group chat, Fu Chengque had sent all the messages:
18:11
【Fu Chengque】: Done shopping at the mall too! So tired.
【Fu Chengque】: Carrying your wind chime, ringing all the way, attracting attention! [Cat angrily]
【Fu Chengque】: Remember to transfer money to me.

【Fu Chengque】: Hahaha—I struck it rich, I struck it rich, I struck it rich!! [Cat triumphant]
【Fu Chengque】: I just found 50 cents on the way home!
【Fu Chengque】: [Image] Look! Shiny 50 cents! [Cat triumphant]
【Fu Chengque】: Hahaha, Wen, people’s luck is so different, hahaha
【Fu Chengque】: No need to give me wind chime money! [Cat triumphant]

21:17
【Wen Yu】: I’m at the Nancheng station, getting ready to return.
The bullet train swayed slightly, and Wen Yu fell asleep as soon as he got on.
When he woke up again, he had already arrived in Jiangcheng. He got off the train, took a taxi, and quickly returned home.
Wen Yu’s parents knew their son had gone out to play but didn’t say much, only asking, “Have you eaten?” After receiving a positive answer, they complained, “The food outside is not clean,” “You should eat more,” “If you get hungry later, you can reheat it,” showing their concern.
Wen Yu returned to his bedroom, and as soon as he pushed the door open, he faintly heard the crisp sound of “ding ling ling.”
After looking around, he found it hanging on Qingmei’s window next door.
The room over there was brightly lit, and Fu Chengque was lying on the bed playing with her phone.
Wen Yu shouted, “Why did you hang my wind chime on your side?”
“Ah!” The girl jumped up with joy and exclaimed, “It’s the Governor, you’re back!!”
“Huh?”
She looked up and down from a distance, nodding as she looked, “Your arms and legs are intact, your face hasn’t changed, Jujube, you’re still alive!”
“My soul was chatting with you in the afternoon?”
“You went to conquer the world for me, didn’t you? I thought you wouldn’t come back!”
“I’m Zhuge Yu, right?!”
“Hahaha, exactly! So I am—”
“Empress Achque!”
“??”
Fu Chengque became furious, baring her teeth and claws, “I’ll slay you!”
“Come and try!”
“The ruler wants you dead, but you refuse!”
“Incompetent ruler, what can you do if I refuse!”
“Oh my—you make me so angry, I’ll devour you!”
Wen Yu pretended to be shocked and changed the subject with a smile, “Did you buy the wind chime?”
The glass wind chime hung on her window, swaying slightly.
Fu Chengque looked at the wind chime, delighted, “Isn’t the wind chime I chose beautiful!”
As she spoke, she reached out and gave it a little tap, making the wind chime emit a clearer sound.
Wen Yu felt a sense of summer “coolness,” making the winter colder.
“It sounds a bit chilly.”
“I think so too… Come over and take it.”
“I’ll take a shower first.”
“You’re right!” Fu Chengque wrinkled her nose, looking disgusted, “I went outside and got all dirty.”
Wen Yu didn’t say much more, smiling as he went to take a shower, changed into clean clothes, and went to Fu Chengque’s room to take the wind chime.
Returning to his own room, he hung it in the appropriate place, giving it a light touch, and it rang out.
“Nice sound, isn’t it?”
“Like the tinkling of mountain spring water.”
“Uh… your thoughts are so strange!”
“Thank you, in the summer, I’ll hang it outside a bit. When the wind blows, it’ll ring ‘ding ling ling’.”
“It’s a pity you’re not going to the little market, there are many fun things.”
“You already got me something, that’s enough.”
“…”
Fu Chengque sighed, “As long as you like it.”
She added, “There’s a flower exhibition tomorrow, let’s go in the afternoon!”
“Okay.”
“Time for bed!”
“Sleep!”
Closing the windows, pulling the curtains, turning off the lights, Fu Chengque snuggled into her own little quilt.
She didn’t sleep, her eyes wide open.
These past two days were leisurely, even neglecting the system tasks.
Just now she also tried to complete the tasks, but it didn’t work out.
Thirty seconds for the same thought was somewhat strict, either the thoughts didn’t match, or Wen Yu didn’t have any thoughts at all!
Fu Chengque was annoyed, this task had many attractive rewards, if she could get it, she’d be so happy!
No…
At the flower exhibition tomorrow, she must try again!
