Chapter 60 Princess and Dream
The arrival of Professor Xu Yun brought the atmosphere to a climax.
Now that the protagonist has arrived, the celebration banquet can naturally begin.
Zhao Yingjun originally planned to let Professor Xu Yun give a few words, but Xu Yun declined.
So Zhao Yingjun went directly to the stage to give an opening speech, talking about the impressive sales and achievements of the new Rhine brand, and thanked every employee of the company for their hard work.
"Today's success of MX Company and the opening of the new Rhine brand are inseparable from the efforts of every employee. But if you want to talk about the hero who should be thanked the most... I believe everyone has the same answer in their minds."
After Zhao Yingjun finished speaking this sentence.
The whole audience burst into warm applause again.
Everyone's eyes, inadvertently, looked at Lin Xian, their eyes full of recognition and admiration.
Everyone knew it in their hearts.
If there was no Lin Xian, how could there be a celebration banquet today?
Whether it was the design of the Rhine Cat or the authorization of Professor Xu Yun, Lin Xian's contribution to MX Company was obvious to all.
Now the whole company has regarded Lin Xian as the "vice president". Even in this personnel adjustment, many people have stood up for Lin Xian, thinking that Zhao Yingjun is too conservative in promoting Lin Xian, and should directly promote him to the position of vice president.
The applause fell...
Zhao Yingjun stretched out his arm and pointed in the direction of Lin Xian:
"Then, please invite Team Leader Lin Xian to come on stage and give everyone a New Year's greeting."
...
Amid the applause and cheers, Lin Xian walked onto the stage with a smile and took the microphone:
"Thank you for the recognition of all leaders and colleagues. First of all, I must make it clear that... the success of the Rhine brand belongs to everyone. There is no distinction between big and small contributions. I, like everyone present, have only done my job well."
"It is precisely because each of us has done our job well that our new Rhine brand can get off to a good start and achieve such success. Therefore... each of us is a hero of today's celebration banquet!"
"2022 is coming to an end. In this year..."
Because of his many years of experience as a host in college, Lin Xian's stage style is very stable. Coupled with the specially practiced voice of the host, everyone listened attentively and was deeply moved.
When Lin Xian finished his final New Year's speech.
The whole hall once again rang with unprecedented warm applause.
It expressed everyone's admiration and respect for the youngest team leader and the most promising young man in the company.
Next, it was the dinner.
Countless delicacies from the mountains and the sea, fine wines and delicacies, snacks and cakes were brought up by the waiters and placed neatly and orderly on the long tables on both sides.
The degree of luxury and exquisiteness... caused shocks in the venue.
What abalone and lobster, at the dinner of the Victoria Hall, can only be regarded as entry-level appetizers. All kinds of top-notch ingredients that cannot be named, cooked by world-famous chefs, emit tempting aromas, which greatly stimulates appetite.
...
Although Professor Xu Yun is not used to this kind of occasion, happiness is indeed contagious.
Especially after a few glasses of wine.
In addition, Xu Yun also felt relieved that he had achieved results in his research.
So he quickly blended into this joyful atmosphere and talked a lot with Lin Xian about his youth.
Not long after the meal started, Gao Yang finally arrived.
"Respectfully!"
After hurriedly greeting Lin Xian, Gao Yang immediately rushed to the lobster and started eating.
He had already figured out the best route to eat the buffet, ensuring that every inch of space in his stomach was used reasonably and enjoying the most extreme delicacy:
"Can I secretly take two bottles of red wine?"
Gao Yang took the lobster claws and came over to ask Lin Xian in a low voice.
"...If you pretend not to know me, you can."
Lin Xian answered truthfully:
"Don't give me up if you are really caught."
"But I just told the lady at the front desk of your company that we are good friends!" Gao Yang slurped the lobster meat:
"We also added WeChat. But she obviously means more to you, and asked me if you have a girlfriend."
"Then you should be more clean and don't embarrass me."
Just then.
Wang, the leader of the marketing team, ran over and said to Zhao Yingjun next to him:
"Mr. Zhao! Chairman Chu Shanhe's car is here! Just entered the gate!"
His voice was very loud.
When the men and women around heard Chu Shanhe's name, they instantly quieted down...
Chu Shanhe's name is well-known in Donghai City, and he is a frequent guest in the news.
But there are very few people who can get a glimpse of him in reality.
Especially for ordinary people, perhaps they will not even have the opportunity to pass by him in this life.
So everyone consciously left the middle road empty, looking forward to Chu Shanhe's arrival and wanting to see his true face.
Finally...
The door of the venue was half-opened by the waiter.
A hearty and deep laugh came in first-
"Hahahahahahahaha... Congratulations! Congratulations to everyone! Happy New Year!"
Chu Shanhe was wearing a white dress, which made his burly figure look more upright and powerful.
He clasped his fists to bless the people on both sides of him, smiling and happy, and walked step by step to the middle of the hall.
And behind him...
A petite figure also waved her hand, smiling politely at the people on both sides.
She wore a long beige gauze dress, and her fluffy brown hair was tightly coiled behind her head, revealing her fair neck and jawline, which was as delicate as a sculpture.
Apart from her pearly teeth and red lips, there was no extra makeup to embellish her. This unique appearance, with just a spring breeze-like smile, was better than all the heavy makeup and artificial decoration.
She followed her father and waved and smiled at the crowd on both sides. Her beautiful eyes curved into a pair of lovely crescents, and the two dimples at the corners of her mouth were looming, which was pleasing to the eye.
And the teardrop mole at the corner of her left eye was the finishing touch, adding a touch of surprise to her already beautiful appearance.
In a moment.
Lin Xian held his breath and couldn't believe his eyes!
CC.
That was clearly CC!
The same hair color and hairstyle, the same curved eyes, the same expression and posture, the same smile when looking back, the same slim and cute figure, and even the same dimple-like teardrop mole!
He finally understood...
Why did Zhao Yingjun blurt out that what he drew was Chu Anqing after just taking a look at CC's sketch...
Because the two girls are so similar!
No.
Not similar, not similar in spirit,
but truly [exactly the same]!
The Chu Anqing walking towards him and the CC who smiled back in the dream are exactly the same!
What is going on?
How could there be two people in the world who are as similar as copy and paste? Not to mention that they are 600 years apart in time and space!
For a moment, all kinds of mixed voices intertwined in Lin Xian's mind-
"Mr. Lin, are you sure that you can distinguish between reality and dreams?"
"CC, just call me CC."
"Isn't the one you drew Chu Shanhe's daughter...Chu Anqing?"
"Liar."
"Do you know...what is the biggest side effect of hibernation?"
"By then, you will completely lose the ability to distinguish between reality and dreams."
...
The bright lights in the hall shone down.
Lin Xian's vision was a little dazed.
He stared at the smiling girl who was slowly approaching him. When their eyes met, Chu Anqing waved at him...
with a sweet smile.
