Unlike most leaders, Qin Ruojing's speech was brief, taking less than two minutes.
Yet, in those brief two minutes, the entire venue was silent, and everyone's expressions were filled with admiration and excitent.
This was because Qin Ruojing revealed that this corporate sports event was going to be much larger in scale than anyone had expected, especially the basketball ga, which would be the highlight.
As for the exact scale and why she emphasized the basketball ga, she kept it a mystery, not revealing any details.
However, the more she kept it under wraps, the more the audience felt anticipation. After all, since this was said by the chairwoman herself, it was undoubtedly sothing significant.
When Qin Ruojing finished her speech and put down the microphone, the entire venue erupted in a wave of enthusiastic applause.
Looking at Qin Ruojing on the stage, exuding confidence and grace, Chu Ge's lips curled into a smile, revealing his signature grin.
"This Qin Ruojing, it's just a few empty words, yet she can stir everyone's emotions so high."
As Chu Ge was thinking this with a smile, he suddenly felt as if Qin Ruojing glanced at him, but due to the distance, he wasn't completely sure.
After Qin Ruojing finished her speech, the corporate sports event officially began.
Similar to a school sports day, it featured events like track and field, high jump, long jump, and shot put, interspersed with fun events like piggyback races, two-legged races, and kangaroo hops to relieve the audience's tension and elicit laughter.
Compared to other departnts in the stands, the Operation Managent Departnt seed quite leisurely, mostly just spectators, eating, drinking, chatting, and laughing.
After all, their departnt only participated in two events: the two-legged race with Feifei and Chu Ge, and the departnt-level basketball ga that only Lu Gang held a glimr of hope for, while others had none.
It's not that they were underestimating themselves, but the whole departnt only had three n: Ji Songtao, Lu Gang, and Chu Ge.
Ji Songtao was rotund, clearly not athletic, and Chu Ge had just been discharged from the hospital, his hand still wrapped in gauze. With such a lineup, how could they possibly play basketball?
The event had been going on for over an hour when the announcent for the "two-legged race" participants was finally heard over the loudspeaker.
Hearing this, Feifei glanced at Yu Zekai, sitting in the front row of leadership seats, with a hint of hesitation in her expression.
However, the hesitance quickly vanished, replaced by a bright smile as she turned her gaze to Chu Ge.
"Vice Minister Chu, it's our turn, shall we go?"
Chu Ge chuckled and glanced at Yu Zekai in front of him, "How about we just skip it?"
"Oh, co on, let's go. Besides the basketball ga, this is our departnt's only event. It wouldn't look good if we backed out, and who ever forfeits in these just-for-fun competitions anyway?"
Feifei insisted, thinking it was ti to seriously consider her relationship with Yu Zekai, using the "two-legged race" as a test for him.
If he got jealous over sothing like this, then... it would be truly aningless.
Seeing Feifei's determination, Chu Ge wasn't pretentious, nodded, and left the stands with her, heading to the competition area on the field.
In Chu Ge's view, no matter how petty Yu Zekai was, he wouldn't be so displeased over sothing this trivial. After all, he was a man in his twenties; if he couldn't muster basic trust and respect for Feifei, it would just be bizarre.
In fact, Chu Ge overestimated Yu Zekai. As he and Feifei left the stands, Yu Zekai frowned at their backs, his eyes narrowing with extre displeasure.
If it were a few days ago, no matter his discontent, Yu Zekai would have had to endure it. But now, he felt emboldened, believing he no longer needed to endure.
Today, he intended to show Feifei that he, Yu Zekai, had finally made it and was now a changed man!
As for Chu Ge, the Vice Minister participating in the two-legged race with Feifei, well, misfortune was his own doing!
With a cold smile on his lips, Yu Zekai stood up, put so distance between himself and Ji Songtao and others behind him, and dialed a number on his phone labeled "Brother Long."
While Yu Zekai was making his call, Chu Ge and Feifei reached the vicinity of the competition area.
Chu Ge noticed that most participants were male-female pairs, exchanging smiles and greetings, each with a look of tacit understanding.
As he and Feifei arrived, they imdiately beca the focal point among the dozen participants.
Compared to the other girls, Feifei was clearly the prettiest, instantly outshining the others as soon as she entered the scene. Additionally, Chu Ge, a Vice Minister who rose from lowly staff, with his hand bandaged, couldn't help but attract attention.
After a few polite exchanges with those who greeted him, Chu Ge and Feifei stood at the starting line, and the staff tightly bound Chu Ge's right leg to Feifei's left leg.
Feifei moved her bound leg slightly, imdiately brushing against Chu Ge's leg.
"Vice Minister Chu, didn't your leg hair get singed off before? How did it grow back so fast? It's even pricklier than last ti! Ouch, it really hurts."
Chu Ge touched his nose speechlessly, "I can't help it, it's naturally tough. Just bear with it for a while, it'll be over soon anyway."
Chu Ge was a bit distracted at the ti, and when he heard Feifei say this, he instinctively asked, "Last ti? Which ti?"
Feifei was speechless, "Vice Minister Chu, what's with your mory? Of course, I'm talking about the ti we were in the car together."
Chu Ge smiled and nodded, "Oh, I rember now."
Seeing Chu Ge's look of sudden realization, Feifei felt even more speechless, "I say, Vice Minister Chu, were you spacing out just now?"
Chu Ge gave a "mm" and laughed, "Yeah, I was just deep in thought."
"Deep in thought? About what? Were you thinking about how to get first place in this competition?"
Chu Ge found it a bit amusing. It was just a fun competition, but Feifei was taking it quite seriously. Seeing her eager deanor, it was clear she really wanted to win first place in this match.
"No, I just rembered a funny story."
Feifei was taken aback, "A funny story? What kind of story?"
Chu Ge chuckled and proceeded to tell Feifei the story.
The story was about soone who saw many friends around him enjoying a shooting ga, so he downloaded it too. To his surprise, he encountered a cheater right away. He fired his gun at the opponent for a long ti, using up all his bullets, yet didn't see the opponent even lose a drop of blood.
This situation instantly drove the person crazy, and just as he was about to start cursing, he saw a ssage from his teammate: "Kick the fool at ho, always shooting at his own team instead of the enemies! What the heck, brainless?"
Upon hearing this story, Feifei and the others around them all burst out laughing.
The shooting ga Chu Ge ntioned was quite popular, and they were all playing it. This was the legendary "teammate like a pig."
At the sa ti, Yu Zekai hung up his phone, glanced in Chu Ge's direction, and the sneer on his face grew colder.
Even though he couldn't hear what the people on the competition field were saying, from the mannerisms of Chu Ge and Feifei, he couldn't help but feel like they were flirting, filling his heart with discontent.
"Damn it, these two must be up to sothing!"
Cursing inwardly, Yu Zekai clenched his fists, feeling like his head was turning green. It seed like everyone around him was looking at him with aningful gazes, and all their expressions contained pity and ridicule.
With a stern face, Yu Zekai strode toward the "Three-Legged Race" competition area.
Today, no matter what, he was going to have a good talk with Feifei!
Originally, Feifei was chatting and laughing with Chu Ge. She glanced inadvertently and suddenly found Yu Zekai leaving the stands, his face long and stern, marching towards her with strong hostility.
Upon witnessing this scene, her pupils contracted sharply, and her heart imdiately tensed up, fearing that Yu Zekai might do sothing extre in front of everyone.
Besides being tense, a strong sense of disappointnt quickly grew within her.
She had tolerated Zekai enough; she not only had to make money to support him, wash clothes, and cook als for him daily, but also comfort and encourage him ntally, trying every possible way to cheer him up.
Yet... at this very mont, he was clearly coming to cause her trouble!
Not only Feifei saw Yu Zekai, but Chu Ge also noticed him and slightly frowned, casting an inquiring glance at Feifei.
"Your boyfriend is coming over."
Feifei forced a smile, "Ignore him, let's focus on our competition."
Feeling a bit irritated, she shifted her gaze away from Yu Zekai. Feifei thought bringing him along today was a huge mistake. This wasn't a leisure outing at all; he was just here to cause trouble!
Just as Yu Zekai was about to walk onto the competition field, the air resounded with a "bang," the starting gun signaling the beginning of the Three-Legged Race.
"Go Feifei, go Vice Minister Chu!"
From the direction of the stands, cheers from the Operation Managent Departnt colleagues ca from afar.
The other pairs nearby started racing, Feifei smiled again at Chu Ge, shouted "Charge," and imdiately suppressed her frustration, stepping forward fiercely, unwilling to fall behind.
