Li Haoyu then took a taxi straight to the restaurant. 🐝ൠ 😝🌷

The crew of "The Annual Comedy Competition" was already waiting for him at the hotel. The hotel was located in the city center, and fortunately it wasn't rush hour, so it only took him half an hour to get there.

When Li Haoyu arrived at the private room on the top floor, he found Su Qiang and Lin Miaomiao waiting for him at the door. Lin Miaomiao was even wearing light makeup today, and even a low-cut evening gown.

Absolutely stunning.

Lin Miaomiao, in her early twenties, is full of youthful energy, like a rosebud waiting to bloom after the rain, pure yet sexy, like a delicate little princess.

Li Haoyu saw that everyone was waiting for him.

He apologized as soon as he entered the door, and his attitude was very humble.

"Sorry everyone kept you waiting a while. I'll punish myself with a drink. There was a bit of traffic on the way."

"It's okay, boss, you can pay the bill. It doesn't matter if you don't show up or not." Some staff members below the stage had already started to stir things up.

Li Haoyu chuckled and said, "That won't do. I absolutely have to mooch a meal from you this time too."

Li Haoyu sat down casually, and the atmosphere became very harmonious.

Li Haoyu didn't have much to say after that.

He ordered everything from the menu.

With such a large crew, plus the burly cameramen, Li Haoyu had no reason to worry about waste. The worst part was that one menu might not even be enough.

We might have to order it again.

There wasn't much to say about the meal itself, except that people kept coming to toast Li Haoyu.

Li Haoyu was the main target of everyone's attacks, not to mention that Li Haoyu is now a high-level leader in the variety show program of Jiangzhou TV.

With the outstanding ratings of "The Annual Comedy Competition" alone, no one can ignore such a young star producer who is at the peak of his creative career.

Therefore, anyone who isn't completely clueless about workplace dynamics or lacks tact knows that Li Haoyu is the main character today. Moreover, Li Haoyu is definitely destined to be a big shot at the television station in the future.

Toasting is a must.

Li Haoyu did not refuse. The toasts from the crew members were mainly to express their good wishes, and most of the crew members were young people of the same age.

Besides, he has only recently become a producer of variety shows, and being too aloof could easily hurt their feelings.

Li Haoyu is always very respectful to the staff on set. He never puts on airs, and leaders who are capable yet unpretentious are always popular, no matter where they are.

Li Haoyu naturally became the focal point for all the firepower.

Fortunately, thanks to his abnormal physique with +9 stamina.

Li Haoyu won decisively.

However, it must be said that drinking culture is certainly not something to be encouraged...

However, it cannot be denied that alcohol can indeed play a significant role in smoothing over and easing the atmosphere. Many things that are difficult to discuss in private can be resolved over drinks. ♙♕ 😲✌

After three cups of wine.

Everyone raised their voices by several decibels.

People started smiling more, and the atmosphere became noticeably warmer. People who were usually quiet quickly became friends, and close colleagues even started toasting and sharing their innermost feelings.

As more and more drinks were consumed, the atmosphere became increasingly lively.

The group ate from afternoon until evening, finally relieving themselves of the stress that had been building up recently.

Li Haoyu naturally became the focal point of all the firepower. He bowed slightly and greeted everyone with a smile.

Damn, it's really troublesome to act cool when you're a leader.

Fortunately, he was already quite experienced, and Li Haoyu quickly activated his muscle memory.

He quickly regained his composure.

Li Haoyu was already very knowledgeable, and with his experiences in several worlds, he could talk about anything and do it in a very interesting way. He was practically a carbon copy of the comedian Luo Yonghao.

From astronomy and the universe to the grand scheme of time and the trivialities of celebrity gossip, Li Haoyu speaks with ease and, most importantly, in a captivating way.

Moreover, Li Haoyu was not pretentious or aloof; his humility and humor made everyone at the dinner feel quite comfortable, like a gentle breeze.

Of course, what's most surprising is Li Haoyu's alcohol tolerance.

This person's alcohol tolerance is simply divine.

Su Qiang was dumbfounded.

Lin Miaomiao also looked up and subconsciously brushed her hair aside. She looked at Li Haoyu with surprise as she watched him get many people below drunk while chatting and laughing.

This display of a confident and poised mature man's charm naturally attracted the attention of many young women on the television station.

However, Lin Miaomiao was sitting next to Li Haoyu.

Everyone knows exactly what happened.

In addition, Lin Miaomiao's appearance today was truly stunning, otherwise, given Li Haoyu's looks and conditions, he would have been surrounded by countless admirers long ago.

After exchanging pleasantries, Li Haoyu returned to his seat in the main position.

Lin Miaomiao's subtle gaze fell on Li Haoyu, and she whispered something in his ear with a half-smile.

"Looks like you're quite popular. I see girls staring at you like crazy. You're pretty marketable." There was a hint of jealousy in her words.

Once these words were spoken, anyone could tell that Lin Miaomiao was not in a good mood. Her words were very direct, and even carried a hint of anger.

However, Lin Miaomiao's current status is that of the Empress.

Even someone who is showered with love and affection has the right to throw a tantrum.

If an average guy found a girlfriend like Lin Miaomiao, he'd probably be laughing all the way to the bank.

Li Haoyu smiled, remaining calm in the face of Lin Miaomiao's challenge. "Are you jealous? How about... I kiss you right here and now, so you can show off in front of everyone?"

This dealt a devastating blow to Su Qiang, who was standing nearby. He gave Li Haoyu a resentful look, as if to say, "Stop torturing this single dog!"

To be honest, he was starting to feel the strain.

Li Haoyu's success is understandable, but he earned it all through his own hard work and has nothing to be ashamed of.

But he treats his beautiful girlfriend Lin Miaomiao like a servant, and Lin Miaomiao seems to enjoy it. Meanwhile, he is completely ignored when he is obedient to other girls.

This world is so unfair.

Li Haoyu is at most just a little bit more handsome than me.

Does that mean even a girl like Lin Miaomiao is a sucker for good looks?

Li Haoyu seemed to see through Su Qiang's little scheme. "This is something you can only envy. Xiao Qiang, you should work hard. When you're successful, your appearance will naturally become unique."

Li Haoyu said with a smile, and these hurtful words made Su Qiang put on a bitter face. But they successfully made Lin Miaomiao laugh.

Su Qiang looked helpless and simply gave up on giving up. However, thanks to Su Qiang's sacrifice, the atmosphere on the scene returned to a cheerful state.

Lin Miaomiao's anger dissipated instantly.

She also took the initiative to raise a glass of red wine and savor it.

This left Li Haoyu speechless. Wasn't Lin Miaomiao a teetotaler? How come she was drinking red wine so skillfully!

Lin Miaomiao saw Li Haoyu's surprised expression.

She swished her wine glass dismissively as she spoke.

"I lied to you before. We had only known each other for a short time then. Wasn't it normal for me to pretend I couldn't drink? There are many things you don't know."

After saying that, Lin Miaomiao proudly raised her head and downed the glass of red wine in one gulp.

Li Haoyu was speechless; he hadn't expected Lin Miaomiao to have such a hidden talent. Indeed, women always have a side that men don't know.

The process is finally over, and we can finally have a proper meal.

Li Haoyu buried himself in his food, occasionally teasing Lin Miaomiao beside him, thoroughly enjoying himself.

Li Haoyu checked the time and it was almost time.

He handed his credit card to Su Qiang, asking him to take the staff who wanted to continue the second round to another place, and he would pay for all the expenses.

As for employees with families and those who do not wish to continue the gathering, they can go home directly and continue to enjoy their two-day special welfare leave.

However, before leaving, Li Haoyu held Lin Miaomiao's hand at the door and said, "I won't spoil the fun anymore. You can choose to continue being hysterical or go home and relax."

"But before I leave, I have some good news to share with everyone."

By now, everyone present had drunk quite a bit, and they were all quite relaxed, chattering amongst themselves, "Boss, what's the good news? You can't leave unless it's explosive!"

Li Haoyu paused for a moment, then said without keeping anyone in suspense, "I don't know if this counts as sensational, you can judge for yourselves."

"Well, the ratings for the annual comedy competition came out yesterday. The top five nationwide are just so-so. Actually, my goal is to secure third place, strive for second, and even aim for first. But that's all in the future."

"The success of the Annual Comedy Competition today is inseparable from everyone's hard work. I have always believed that hard work should be rewarded."

"The best way to motivate everyone, I think, is to give them money directly. Now that the sponsor's fee has arrived, I have some extra money on hand."

"I've decided to set aside a sum of money as a bonus for everyone. It's not a lot, just a million dollars, and I've already instructed the finance department to transfer it to the accounts based on everyone's performance."

"Everyone should receive the text message tomorrow morning. I just don't know... whether this news is considered explosive?"

In fact, Li Haoyu had planned this for a while, and it wasn't a huge sum of money. A little over a million yuan wasn't much in terms of the later program revenue sharing.

Just consider it a bit of fun for everyone. Anyway, as long as he has enough money to spend, that's enough. He has many other ways to make money, so money isn't a problem for him at all.

The moment Li Haoyu spoke, the previously noisy private room fell silent. Everyone froze, as if the air itself had solidified.

Lin Miaomiao, who was standing next to Li Haoyu, was also dumbfounded.

She never expected Li Haoyu to say such a thing.

Before anyone could react, Li Haoyu grabbed Lin Miaomiao and ran off, saying, "Everyone, I'm taking my girlfriend home first." He had just stepped out the door.

The scene instantly erupted in chaos.

…………

"Alright, we've gone far enough, stop dragging me along. I can't run anymore," Lin Miaomiao complained, panting.

Li Haoyu didn't reply to her, but just silently looked at Lin Miaomiao.

The two then looked at each other and smiled.

Li Haoyu faced the cool breeze outside and silently recalled the feeling from just now.

Showing off and then running away...it's so satisfying!

"Ha...ha...ha!" Li Haoyu couldn't help but burst into laughter. Despite not having much money, he had an extraordinary experience. This feeling was incomparable to the numbers on paper.

Lin Miaomiao stared speechlessly at the grinning man in front of her, as if he were an idiot. Although Li Haoyu knew Lin Miaomiao was just watching the show, he didn't mind at all.

He even felt a long-lost sense of exhilaration, knowing that no matter how intense the feeling, there was always someone to share it with.

That would be the most enjoyable!

Money and simulation points don't seem to matter that much anymore. This... isn't this the biggest gain from using the movie simulator?

Is this what happiness feels like?

"Where do we go next?"

Lin Miaomiao looked at Li Haoyu, who was silent and grinning foolishly. What was wrong with Li Haoyu in this cold weather?

Thinking this to herself, Lin Miaomiao casually asked a question.

As a result, Li Haoyu stared intently at Lin Miaomiao.

At first, Lin Miaomiao didn't take it seriously.

She simply stared back at him defiantly.

But she didn't hold out for long, because she noticed a wicked smile creeping onto Li Haoyu's face. Sensing something was wrong, she looked up at Li Haoyu and asked, "Now... what do you want to do?"

Li Haoyu smiled and said, "If I wanted to do something bad, you wouldn't yell 'molestation,' would you?"

Lin Miaomiao couldn't help but chuckle, finally letting out a soft laugh and glancing sideways at Li Haoyu. "Go ahead and try if you dare!"

Li Haoyu didn't stand on ceremony and darted to Lin Miaomiao's side in two steps. Lin Miaomiao subconsciously took a step back, but when she saw him coming, she straightened her chest, looking unapproachable.

Li Haoyu did not rush to act, but instead continued to block Lin Miaomiao.

She stared blankly, completely still. After a long while, the impatient Lin Miaomiao finally couldn't hold back any longer and muttered in a low voice, "It's so cold, are you ever going to stop...?"

But Li Haoyu remained silent. Lin Miaomiao then raised her head, her eyes large and bright, with an unusual brilliance she rarely saw.

Li Haoyu's hand twitched slightly.

She instinctively took a step back.

Lin Miaomiao seemed to realize she had just shown weakness, and then raised her head defiantly. Li Haoyu finally made his move, putting one arm around Lin Miaomiao's waist.

Lin Miaomiao couldn't help but struggle a few times, but after realizing it was futile, she simply lay down completely. Li Haoyu said, "Actually, I want to do something bad to you."

Lin Miaomiao: ...

Li Haoyu continued, "If you don't refuse, I'll take that as a yes."

"Then... I'll do something bad."

This time, Lin Miaomiao didn't talk back as much as usual.

She blushed and neither spoke nor resisted.

Li Haoyu pressed his finger against Lin Miaomiao's chin, "Raise your head and look at me."

Lin Miaomiao timidly raised her head, but her eyes did not dart away.

Li Haoyu's breathing gradually became heavy, and his head slowly lowered.

At this moment, Lin Miaomiao clenched her fists involuntarily.

Lin Miaomiao's body stiffened slightly, as if she had been acupunctured, but Li Haoyu kissed her slowly but resolutely, his hand slipping inside her...

After an unknown amount of time, Li Haoyu let go.

Lin Miaomiao, her face flushed red like a tomato, suddenly said, "This is... a bad thing?"

"Hmm, how are you feeling?"

"not bad!"

"Shall we do it again!"

Lin Miaomiao was distracted by Li Haoyu's pranks. Meanwhile, Li Haoyu, with his True Sight, saw a figure in the shadows not far away.

"Isn't that Qian Sanyi?"

"This is getting interesting."
