Chapter 12: Delight in Being Upper Volume
Temporary warehouse (for annual meeting use)
It's really... I thought the annual meeting of a big company would be interesting, but it's just some small games and a tour, not creative at all. Xinyue is greatly disappointed, while Chengzhen on the side is full of excitement, looking around like a big kid.
Am I a toy that's being tossed around? Xinyue furrowed her brow, leaning on her chin, thinking about how she was brought in by her sister and casually handed over to Vivian, only to be passed on to Chengzhen not long after.
To be honest, when I first saw Cheng Zhenyue, I felt like I had seen him somewhere before. After getting to know each other, I realized that he was the one in the photo who looked a bit older. My sister didn't choose him twice, how pitiful...
But honestly, the feeling of being with him is very good. He's not tall, but he looks quite elegant, except for his slightly large nose and some red acne on it. Overall, I get the feeling that he's a very gentle and meticulous man... to put it bluntly, he lacks personality, that kind of...
Xin Yue supported her cheek and took another look, thinking to herself that people like him were much better than those smooth-talking young men. He was loyal, honest, dedicated, capable, and gave a sense of security, making him the perfect choice for a lifelong partner. However, he lacked romance and was a bit wooden. His introverted warmth and care were often overlooked, so for girls like her sister who pursued romance and excitement, he might be less attractive.
Alas... just looking at this guy's appearance and I knew he had already given up on sister long ago, but sister seems to have no feelings for him...
Enqi sister and Chengzhen brother... always feel they are quite a match... what a pity...
"What is Xinyue thinking about? She looks very serious. Do you want to play that?" Chengzhen pointed to a nearby football kicking game and asked.
Alas... a big man speaking so gently can't have some presence? (Fifty Steps Laughing at Hundred Steps, someone forgot what they used to be like...)
"Let's go." Xiang Yue said lightly, although she felt unenthusiastic in her heart. Seeing Cheng Zhen's excited expression, she couldn't bear to disappoint him, so she followed along.
It's really puzzling that this little angel is even more difficult to serve than her sister... I pushed away my work specifically to accompany her and play, but she seems uninterested, it's really hard to deal with...
The building was originally a warehouse, after all, it was used to store chips, so it was naturally built with gold and jade, flowing light and colorful. In the northwest corner of the hall, a chair is used to encircle a position against the wall, with a small ball door that is very delicate and elegant, in front of the ball door
A five-meter-long cardboard goalkeeper stood at the entrance. The contestant's task was to kick the ball into the door, but they had to avoid touching the goalkeeper; even a slight touch would be considered a loss.
The winner's prize was an exquisite teapot.
So boring... I'm not even interested in playing soccer, how can I compare to those professional players? Just looking at it casually, you can tell that this game still requires some skills... (I think someone is just not confident of winning so they're not interested...)
The hall is bustling with people coming and going. Especially around the football field, it's even more crowded, surrounded by a sea of people waiting in chairs, rubbing shoulders as they pass by.
Xin Yue sat down with Cheng Zhen and they chatted intermittently.
The appearance of the little beauty naturally caused a stir. People always smiled and nodded, occasionally when their eyes met, they also cast kind glances.
"Yesheng Zhen finally brought your family's beautiful daughter?"
Daughter?...
He almost fainted with rage and threw a punch at the guy who made the mistake, retorting: "Please! I'm still so young and not even married, where did this daughter come from?"
The young man chuckled and leaned in close to Chengzhen's ear, teasing: "Hey, hey, General Cheng, old cow eating tender grass, so lucky!" After finishing speaking, he immediately ran away.
Cheng Zhen's old face slightly flushed as he glanced at Xiang Yue, thinking she would also be embarrassed after hearing this. However, he saw her covering her mouth and laughing straight away: "Cheng Zhen ge, you get along well with your colleagues!"
"Hehe, yeah." Xīn Yuè cleared her throat twice and asked seriously: "Do you think I'm old?"
"I don't think so, but... " Xiang Yue thought for a moment and looked at Cheng Zhen with a sentence that was somewhat striking. "Sister seems to think you're a bit old." After finishing speaking, she laughed herself.
Chen Zhen's face turned ashen with despair and he was speechless.
"It's your turn! Come and kick the ball." The game organizer shouted.
By the way, everyone who attends this annual meeting will receive a ticket consisting of three parts. The first part is the game section, where each ticket has ten small circles, and one circle is scratched off for each small game participated in. Then there's the meal voucher section, which can be exchanged for a box of delicious pastries. Finally, there's the lottery section, where it's said that you might even win an IBM T42 laptop!
Back on the small football field, Cheng Zhen was already standing in front of the football, his body slightly tilted to the right, his right foot slightly out, aiming at the goal and kicking!
Bang!...... Hit the goalkeeper......
Honestly unwilling to give up, thinking that he must win a water bottle for the little beauty, so he drew another circle and kicked again.
Xīn Yuè's small face was filled with a serious and thoughtful expression as she pondered how to score a goal. This principle should be the same as kicking a free kick in a regular match, right? If she could kick it out in an arc trajectory that would bypass the defender, she could score! Ah, what was that kicking technique called again... Xīn Yuè lightly bit her finger and furrowed her brow, looking adorable with her deep thinking expression. The big brothers and sisters next to her couldn't help but want to laugh, if it weren't for the fact that this little beauty's face clearly had "Do not disturb while thinking" written all over it...
I know! That's called banana shot...
"Hmmph......" Cheng Zhen didn't enter again. He was unhappy and prepared to try once more.
"Wait!" Xīnyuè couldn't hold back anymore, confidently ran into the arena with a bright red face due to excitement. "Let me kick! I have a way!"
Chen Zhen was pushed away by Xiao Mei without warning, and he secretly laughed in his heart. Who just said they were out of energy? How come now...
The scene was suddenly filled with cheers and everyone wanted to see how the little beauty kicked the ball.
Xīn yuè pāi pāi shǒu hū le kǒu qì mí zhe yǎn jìng zhěn xǐ shěn shì le jiǎo dù hé jù lí yí fù shā yǒu jiè shì de yàng zi.
Use your right foot to kick the ball and make it spin around the goalkeeper before scoring!
What a perfect strategy...
Ready... Set... Kick!
Boom!
Shoot... I used too much force... The ball hit the wall beside it.
The audience burst into laughter and applause...
