In addition, every Ruida Group employee attending the annual meeting will receive a participation prize: a dose of Qiangji No. 4 gene enhancement drug. Injecting Qiangji No. 4 can significantly improve employees' physical fitness, boost immunity against most diseases, and enable them to better serve the company and contribute their intelligence and talents.

Of course, all of these prizes are physical rewards and cannot be claimed at the virtual annual meeting. Winners will only receive an electronic voucher for prize collection. After the annual meeting ends and they log off, they can use this electronic voucher to contact the head office's annual meeting preparation office to collect their prizes from the nearest location.

This year's Ruida Group annual meeting lasted a full four hours. When the last performance ended and the four hosts took the stage to announce the end of the meeting, it was already past 11 p.m. Qiao Ruida's two young children were too tired to stay awake any longer and had logged off to sleep. Qiao Ruida and Du Qingqing, however, were captivated by the excellent performances and watched until the very end. After the meeting concluded, Qiao Ruida exchanged goodnight wishes with several familiar senior executives, then, with his still somewhat reluctant wife, logged off to rest.

Taking off the virtual reality glasses reveals a familiar living room scene. Holding the annual meeting in the virtual world has another hidden benefit: removing the brain-computer interface device automatically returns you to reality. After the meeting, there's no need to drive home anymore—it couldn't be more convenient.

Sitting on the same double sofa, Du Qingqing also took off her virtual reality glasses and woke up. Perhaps because she had been sitting on the sofa for too long, the first thing Du Qingqing did after waking up was to stand up and stretch her limbs, and then stretch out with a big yawn. Her loose loungewear could not hide her perfect figure; her slender waist, long legs, and broad chest were all on full display.

Joreda, who witnessed all of this, couldn't help but swallow hard. The two had been married for many years and knew each other intimately, yet she still couldn't resist the allure that occasionally emanated from her.

"Honey, look, it's late at night and the kids are fast asleep. Shall we do something we like?"

Upon hearing this, Du Qingqing gave Qiao Ruida a charmingly disdainful look, "It's getting late, I'm going to take a shower first."

"Honey, wait for me, let's shower together!"

What happened next is too private to describe, so I will omit it.

The next morning, Qiao Ruida got up for her morning exercise as usual. With the Lunar New Year approaching, this should have been the busiest time of the year, but Beijing was noticeably quiet. The parks were less crowded, and the usually congested roads were unusually clear. The reason was that most of the migrant workers had returned to their hometowns for the Spring Festival, resulting in a large outflow of people. Less than half of Beijing's local population remained, making the city's quietness inevitable.

After finishing his morning exercise, on his way home, Qiao Ruida stopped at a breakfast shop and bought three steamers of xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) and two cups of millet porridge for his family's breakfast. When they arrived back at the courtyard house, Du Qingqing and her two children were already up and packing their luggage, preparing to return to their hometown for the Chinese New Year.

As in previous years, after the annual meeting, Ruida Group began its annual holiday. Except for a very few staff members who stayed on duty during the Spring Festival, all other employees, including the company owner Qiao Ruida, were given a holiday to go home, with each employee enjoying a vacation ranging from seven days to two weeks.

"Honey, don't rush to pack, let's have breakfast first!" Qiao Ruida called to his wife and children, and they headed to the dining room to eat breakfast together. "Daddy, Daddy, what delicious food did you buy? Let me see!" Hearing that it was time to eat, the two children immediately perked up, dropped their toys, and ran over.

"Steamed buns with mutton and radish filling, and fragrant millet porridge. Xiao Lan and Xiao Shu, would you like to try some?" The two children are still young and are usually picky eaters. If it weren't for the milk powder and snacks they eat, they would have been starving long ago.

Qiao Ruida took a few plates from the kitchen and poured the steamed buns out of the plastic bag. Seeing the fragrant buns, the two little ones immediately reached out their hands to grab them, but Du Qingqing slapped them back, saying, "You two, did you wash your hands before grabbing food? I just taught you to wash your hands before meals and rinse your mouths afterward, and you've already forgotten?"

The son and daughter pouted and reluctantly went to the kitchen to wash their hands.

After a lively family breakfast, Qiao Ruida joined in packing. Returning to their hometown for the Lunar New Year, they needed to bring various New Year's goods, gifts for their parents and in-laws, and some baby formula and toys for their son and daughter. They also needed to bring back some brand-name cigarettes and alcohol, whether for personal consumption or as gifts. In this way, various items were continuously sorted out and loaded into the flying car's trunk, quickly filling it to capacity, and then more were stuffed into the empty back seats.

At 10:00 AM, Xie Fei and Li Xiaoshuang, a couple who had arranged to return to their hometown together, arrived at the door in their flying car, interrupting Qiao Ruida and his wife's continued loading of things into the car. Fortunately, Qiao Ruida's flying car was a seven-seater luxury commercial model with ample interior space, so even with so much stuff, it didn't affect the comfort of the family of four.

Half an hour later, Qiao Ruida's family of four, along with Xie Fei and his wife, boarded two flying cars and embarked on their journey back to their hometown, Decheng City. The flying cars were extremely fast and took a straight route, so what would normally take half a day by car was covered in less than an hour for them, and they arrived over Decheng City.

"Old Qiao, Xiao Shuang and I are heading home now. See you after the New Year!" Xie Fei said over the walkie-talkie, then turned the steering wheel and drove towards his home.

"Okay, see you after the New Year. Remember to give my regards to your parents and tell them that I will visit them again after the New Year."

Five minutes later, the flying car arrived above their villa, hovered to adjust its position, and then landed vertically. The door opened, and the two children ran out first, shouting, "Grandpa and Grandma, we're back!"

Hearing the shouts outside, Qiao Jingkang and Yao Miaozhi, who had already received the news and were waiting at home, immediately opened the villa gate and came out.

"Let me see who's back! It's Xiaolan and Xiaoshu from afar! Come here, let Grandpa give you a hug!" The elderly couple bent down, each picking up one of their grandchildren, their smiles wide and their eyes narrowing. The elderly couple and Qiao Ruida's family lived apart, and since the children were born, they could count on one hand the number of times they'd seen their grandparents. But the two little ones showed no awkwardness towards their grandparents, greeting them familiarly and begging for hugs with practiced ease. After all, modern communication methods are so advanced—audio calls, video chats, or even further, entering a virtual world where both parties can chat and interact face-to-face, making it almost as if they were living together.
