Chapter 71: Such a coincidence?

FineGirls’ hot dance successfully brought the atmosphere of the scene to life.

After the dance ended, they left the stage under the reluctant gaze of the crowd, and the host in a suit and tie took the stage.

He first gave a brief self-introduction and said some official words, then began the next program.

This time, a diva-level singer took the stage, bringing her classic works.

The cheers of the crowd rose again.

But the surprises didn’t stop there.

Later, there were also appearances by popular stars, famous crosstalk actors, well-known rappers, and chief dancers.

The luxurious lineup was comparable to some television stations’ Spring Festival Gala.

In short, it was a feast for the eyes and ears.

Qiao Shuyi went from initial surprise to gradual numbness, her heart deeply shocked.

It’s worthy of being Shengshi Group.

Other companies’ annual meetings would just involve eating and listening to leaders give speeches, while slightly larger groups might invite people to perform some programs to reward their employees.

However, Shengshi Group was different.

Not only was there a luxurious buffet to eat at will, but they also invited half of the entertainment industry to perform for employees and clients.

Many employees might never see so many stars in their lifetime.

It was truly -opulent.

The performance lasted for two hours before ending.

As the last program ended, the host once again took to the stage.

The next segment, as expected, was the speeches by the leaders.

Qiao Shuyi thought this segment would last a long time, with many leaders going up to speak.

However, only a vice president of Shengshi went up to speak for less than ten minutes, expressing his welcome and gratitude, before stepping down.

Then, the lottery draw began.

Qiao Shuyi couldn’t help but lean closer to Sheng Yu, whispering to him: “Mr. Sheng, aren’t you going to speak?”

“I don’t like this kind of thing, the vice president usually handles it.”

Qiao Shuyi widened her eyes, a sudden thought popping into her mind: “Mr. Sheng, you wouldn’t be an ‘i’ type person, would you?”

“I type? What’s that?”

Qiao Shuyi thought for a moment: “Simply put, it’s a social phobia.”

“No.”

He wasn’t socially anxious, he just simply didn’t like it.

Of course.

If he was socially anxious, how could he manage such a large group?

Qiao Shuyi nodded thoughtfully, turning her head to continue watching the lottery draw.

Shengshi Group’s opulence was also evident in the lottery draw segment.

Other companies’ prizes were mostly small appliances, or small red envelopes, shopping cards.

However, Shengshi Group’s prizes, the worst was 2,000 yuan in cash, and there were refrigerators, washing machines, televisions, gold bars, etc.

The grand prize was a car worth 800,000 yuan.

Shengshi used a seat code lottery method, with each seat in the venue having a unique number, and the staff had already written all the numbers on small balls, putting all the balls into a large cardboard box.

The first draw was for the consolation prize of 2,000 yuan, with a total of twenty spots, drawn by several Shengshi executives.

Many people in the audience didn’t need this money, but their enthusiasm for the lottery draw was exceptionally high, and every winner couldn’t help but cheer, causing envy among those around them.

Qiao Shuran also won a consolation prize, holding the winning ticket and waving it happily at Qiao Shuyi.

Subsequent draws were for first, second, and third prizes.

The higher the prize, the fewer the winners and the more valuable the prizes.

There were three first prizes, each corresponding to a 500-gram gold bar.

Qiao Shuyi silently calculated the price of the gold bar in her mind, once again deeply impressed by Shengshi Group’s opulence.

Finally, only one grand prize was left, a car worth 800,000 yuan.

Everyone had been looking forward to this.

Who would be so lucky to win tonight’s grand prize?

As the grand prize, of course, it had to be drawn by the president of Shengshi Group.

The staff brought the cardboard box filled with numbered balls to Sheng Yu, “Mr. Sheng, please.”

At the same time, the camera focused on Sheng Yu, his handsome face appearing on the electronic screen.

It instantly caused a stir.

Sheng Yu suddenly turned his head to look at Qiao Shuyi next to him: “Qiao Qiao, you draw.”

“Ah?” Qiao Shuyi was caught off guard: “You’re the president of Shengshi, you should draw.”

“It’s okay, you draw.”

Qiao Shuyi thought for a moment, “How about we draw together?”

“Okay.”

The camera zoomed out, focusing on both of them at the same time.

On the screen, the two of them simultaneously reached into the cardboard box, and after a few seconds, they took their hands out.

The two clenched fists unfolded, revealing a small ball inside.

The staff stepped forward to take the small ball, opened it, and took out the paper inside.

She slowly unfolded the paper.

A “1-10” number code appeared on the screen.

First row, tenth seat.

Qiao Shuyi was clearly stunned when she saw this code.

She seemed to remember that her seat was 10…

Could this be a coincidence?

Soon, the staff’s reaction gave her the answer.

“Mr. Sheng, the winner seems to be… Sister Qiao.”

Upon hearing this, everyone in the audience was stunned for a moment, then began to whisper among themselves.

The various gazes of the crowd were all directed at Qiao Shuyi.

For a moment, Qiao Shuyi felt like she was “being watched” by everyone.

Sheng Yu was also surprised by this result for a moment, he was about to speak when he saw Qiao Shuyi take the microphone from the staff and said, “How could it be me? This doesn’t count, let’s draw again.”

Although Sheng Yu didn’t care about the money, some people might doubt if they had rigged it, and didn’t really want to give away the grand prize.

Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence?

“Why wouldn’t it count?” Sheng Yu said leisurely, his voice carrying a hint of laughter: “Didn’t we draw it together? This means we have a lot of fate.”

Qiao Shuyi glared at him angrily.

What time was it, and he was still joking.

Didn’t he hear the whispers from the audience?

Sheng Yu held her hand and beckoned to the staff.

The latter immediately understood and brought the cardboard box to them.

“I’m in a good mood today, let’s draw two more grand prizes, a total of three grand prizes, one has already been drawn.”

As Sheng Yu’s words fell, the crowd erupted in a burst of amazement.

Three 800,000 yuan cars, that’s a total of 2.4 million yuan.

Mr. Sheng was truly generous.

The vice president next to him looked hesitant, whispering a reminder: “Mr. Sheng, that’s a bit over budget.”

Sheng Yu didn’t even look at him: “Charge it to my personal account.”

The vice president was speechless.

Soon, Qiao Shuyi and Sheng Yu drew the remaining two grand prizes.

One was a Shengshi employee, and the other was a representative of another company.

Both of them were very excited, standing up and thanking Sheng Yu repeatedly.

A staff member handed the grand prize winning ticket to Qiao Shuyi, who took it and felt her cheeks flush.

She asked Sheng Yu in a low voice: “Really for me?”

The man raised his eyebrows slightly: “Could there be any other possibility?”

“But I already have a car…”

“Then cash it out.”

Qiao Shuyi curled her lips and laughed.

Why did she feel like she was getting something for nothing?

…

Some were happy, some were sad.

In the corner of the venue, Sheng Mingze and Sheng Mingwei stared at the two on the electronic screen without moving.

Sheng Mingze: “I feel like Sheng Yu is serious about her, I’ve never seen him be so gentle and considerate to any woman.”

As he spoke, he couldn’t help but lick his lips, his eyes full of interest.

What to do if it’s even more interesting?

Sheng Mingwei coldly glanced at him: “If Sheng Yu really gets serious with her, you better stay away from her, otherwise he definitely won’t let you off.”

“If he doesn’t get serious, I wouldn’t be so interested in this Qiao Shuyi.” Sheng Mingze was unconcerned.

I wonder if Sheng Yu has slept with her…

Whether he has or not, he wants to sleep with her.

Just thinking about Sheng Yu’s angry and out-of-control appearance made him feel a surge of dark pleasure.

“Whatever you do, discuss it with me first, let’s plan it out, don’t leave any evidence.”

“Got it.” Sheng Mingze replied lazily, his eyes glued to Sheng Yu on the big screen.

Soon, the good show was about to begin.

Sheng Yu, are you ready?
