Xu Fan replied understandingly, "Okay, is the restaurant ready yet?"

Han Zilu handed the menu to Xu Fan and said, "I'll wait for you to order."

Xu Fan didn't refuse. After ordering a few dishes, he handed the menu to the waiter and asked Han Zilu, "So, what did you want to see me about?"

Han Zilu stammered but did not answer Xu Fan's question.

Xu Fan shook his head and didn't press further. Instead, he casually asked, "By the way, how's your work at Fanxing Pictures going?"

Han Zilu nodded and said, "I can basically get the hang of it now, but there are still many things I need to learn gradually."

Xu Fan said, "President Liao Fanxing has praised you to me more than once. After the New Year, you will be in the company to handle the handover with President Liao. At that time, you must make preparations for everything."

Han Zilu was about to say that this wouldn't do when Xu Fan explained, "President Liao personally told me that he was leaving."

Han Zilu said "Oh" and then said seriously, "President Xu, please don't worry."

Although Xu Fan understood what Han Zilu meant by being so serious, he still said, "Just call me Xu Fan when it's just the two of you."

Han Zilu nodded and continued, "Actually, what I wanted to say was that I definitely won't be going home for Chinese New Year this year."

Xu Fan nodded and said, "That's good. Although the flight isn't very far, it's not easy to go back from such a long distance. The Spring Festival travel rush is stressful and stressful these days. Next time, I'll just buy the ticket earlier."

Han Zilu said awkwardly, "I know. What I mean is..."

Xu Fan looked up at Han Zilu with curiosity, but Han Zilu remained silent, leaving Xu Fan bewildered. He smiled and said, "Just say what you want to say."

Han Zilu nodded, and just as she was about to speak, she heard a "knock knock knock" sound coming from the doorway.

After Xu Fan called out "Come in," the waiter brought over the prepared dishes.

In an instant, Han Zilu felt as if she had been granted a pardon. Her previous tension vanished, and she smiled awkwardly, saying, "It's okay, it's okay."

The question I kept in my heart, "Can I come to your house and spend the New Year with you?", was ultimately left unsaid.

The waiter placed the dishes, said "Just call me if you need anything," and left the private room.

Xu Fan said, "Let's eat."

Han Zilu nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice, but she looked up at Xu Fan several times during the process.

Xu Fan said helplessly, "Just tell me what's wrong. What's there to be afraid of?"

Han Zilu ultimately didn't say those words, feeling too embarrassed to speak. But then she suddenly remembered something and said, "There is something I want to tell you. Take a look at this."

As she spoke, Han Zilu opened her phone, opened a document, and handed it to Xu Fan.

Xu Fan glanced at them curiously, then froze, looking up at Han Zilu and asking, "Where did you get all of these?"

Han Zilu said, "I compiled this during my conversations with everyone at the company over this period of time."

Xu Fan nodded and said, "I will consider this matter."

Han Zilu said, "If you do your best, you will have no regrets. I think that many times we can't reach that unattainable dream even if we try our best, but as long as we keep pursuing our dreams, we will get closer and closer to them."

Xu Fan actually agreed with this statement, and his gaze unconsciously drifted to Han Zilu's phone.

The documents on the phone aren't actually about big events, but rather simple, mundane things. Employees work hard to finish their tasks, but then the power goes out, and everything has to be started all over again.

Even though I got on the elevator first, because of the crowd and people making way for each other, I ended up getting off because it was overweight.

When rushing to catch the bus or subway, it always seems to leave just as I arrive.

Some people always complain about the helplessness of reality and the sorrow of life, while others always turn these seemingly sad things into necessities for their lives, making them more wonderful. These are all things that Han Zilu understands and has seen.

There were even some comments he collected from netizens online. Han Zilu said, "Actually, I compiled these for you because I thought that since you love singing so much, these materials might be of some help to you."

Xu Fan nodded, looked up at him, and said, "Is this what you wanted to talk to me about?"

Han Zilu nodded and said, "I guess so, but that's not the only reason. Another reason is that many employees from various companies, when discussing this issue, really hope that you can write a song."

Xu Fan thought for a moment and said, "I'm very moved by this, I'm determined to write this song."

===Chapter 455 Singing in the Corporate Group===

Both humans and animals have emotions.

Anger, sorrow, the urge to cry, the urge to laugh—all these emotions are mixed together and then expressed in some way.

Xu Fan's final act was singing. Perhaps he didn't write the song himself, but since it doesn't exist in this world, he'll consider it his own.

At least those lyrics, those stories, though seemingly monotonous, always have some similarities, returning to a certain central origin while being tainted by many things.

Xu Fan felt that many things in this world were predestined; some people were lucky, some were unlucky, some had little pressure, and some were under immense pressure.

Some people are born into wealth and privilege, while others have to constantly strive and struggle; these are all part of fate.

Xu Fan acquired this song a long time ago but never had the chance to sing it. He was still thinking about it this morning, intending to wait until after the Spring Festival, but Han Zilu told him about the thoughts of the company's employees, which made him suddenly want to sing it ahead of schedule.

Of course, there is another reason besides these.

That is, the Spring Festival travel rush has some impact on him. Many people travel for a long time, but in the end they still choose to return to their hometown to celebrate the New Year. The journey is tiring, but the moment they return home is still a happy one.

Some people work hard but can only stand on their way home, while others can arrive at their doorstep as soon as they board a plane.

There were no complaints, no jealousy, but it must be said that everyone accepted their fate, each with their own good and bad.

Some people spend New Year's Eve on a train, while others encounter all sorts of strange things on their busy journeys and feel powerless to do anything about them.

Isn't all of this fate? But fate always has to be broken by someone.

If we had accepted our fate, this world would have vanished long ago, and we would never have imagined it would be so magnificent today.

It is because of the scientists' refusal to accept their fate that we have the brilliant world of physics and chemistry we have today.

It is precisely because those great figures during the war refused to accept their fate that we have the vast and mighty Chinese Empire we have today.

Xu Fan didn't accept his fate either, but everyone's choices are their own destiny.

The lyrics of that song are great, the melody is wonderful, and while it sounds gentle, it emphasizes that with less complaining and more effort, everything will get better.

Upon hearing Xu Fan's words, Han Zilu asked happily, "Really?"

Xu Fan said, "Of course it's true."

Han Zilu asked urgently, "Then when?"

Xu Fan checked the time, thought for a moment, and said, "Perhaps we can still make it if we go now."

Upon hearing this, Han Zilu said, "You mean, we're at the last year's meeting now?"

Xu Fan nodded and said, "It's good to go and take a look. I heard from President Liao that it's not really an annual meeting, but a simple holiday ceremony. Maybe everyone has already left, but maybe we can still make it."

Upon hearing this, Han Zilu nodded repeatedly.

After finishing their meal quickly, the two rushed off to the company.

But when he arrived at the company, he only saw Liao Fanxing just about to leave. When she saw Xu Fan, Liao Fanxing couldn't help but walk up and ask, "What brings you here, Mr. Xu?"

Xu Fan said, "Just came to take a look around. Everyone's already on holiday?"

Liao Fanxing said, "Everyone was already impatient, after all, they were going home for the New Year, so after explaining some precautions, they all ran off very quickly."

Han Zilu said from the side, "President Liao, President Xu came over because those employees had said some complaints before, and they wanted Brother Fan to write a song. Brother Fan agreed, so he came over."

Liao Fanxing was taken aback and said, "President Xu really wrote a song?"

Xu Fan shook his head and said, "It wasn't written just now. I've had it for a while, but I never had the chance to sing it. I just happened to hear Zilu mention it today, and I thought it was perfect for me, so I agreed."

Liao Fanxing said, "This is a good thing. It can not only boost everyone's morale, but also increase team cohesion. However, all the employees of Suoyou have already gone home. How about this?"

Xu Fan asked in confusion, "What?"

Liao Fanxing said, "Right here in our company group, you're singing a live stream for everyone. Right now, everyone should be on their way home. Some are on trains, some are on planes, some are on shuttle buses, and maybe some are still in their dorms, unable to go home. Maybe some are already at home chatting with their parents. At this time, if you sing a song like this, maybe everyone's feelings will be even more profound."

Upon hearing this, Han Zilu agreed, saying, "I agree, I agree, that's definitely the right way to do it."

Xu Fan thought for a moment and realized that Liao Fanxing's opinion made a lot of sense. Moreover, the timing seemed to be just right, just as Liao Fanxing had said.

At this moment, everyone's fate is different, but everyone's mood is inevitably happy.

Of course, this song may offer some comfort to those who are lonely and unable to go home.

So Xu Fan said, "In that case, let's leave it at that."

Upon hearing this, Liao Fanxing decided not to go home anymore and said with a smile, "Then let's go straight to my office. The air conditioning was just turned off, so it shouldn't be too cold. Mr. Xu, your office must be very cold since no one is here."

Xu Fan nodded and said, "Either is fine."

Han Zilu said, "Since we're going to do a live stream in the company group, let's just use our phones. It'll be simpler that way. We can pretend to have a meeting first, and then let everyone join the live stream. Hahaha."

Liao Fanxing said with a smile, "Xiao Han, if you keep doing this, the client will say they want to send New Year's red envelopes later."

Han Zilu said with a smile, "As long as you're happy."

Afterwards, the three of them went to Liao Fanxing's office. Sure enough, the temperature in the office was just right. Liao Fanxing turned on the central air conditioning on his floor, and the temperature was adjusted. Liao Fanxing then said, "President Xu, Xiao Han, please sit down. I'll send out a notice first, asking everyone to wait a moment before entering the live broadcast. There's something important to announce."

Xu Fan nodded without saying anything, while Han Zilu suggested from the side, "Remember to say a few more words, there's a surprise!"

Liao Fanxing nodded and said, "No problem, Xu Fan's appearance is indeed a pleasant surprise."

After speaking, Liao Fanxing posted a meeting message in the company group. Half an hour later, all company personnel joined the group. There was a very important announcement to be made, and there would be a surprise, so everyone was encouraged to take initiative.

After sending the message, Liao Fanxing immediately opened the live stream. Seeing that the screen was black and her face was not shown, she waited for everyone to enter.

Meanwhile, all the employees in the company group were filled with a mix of dissatisfaction and various emotions, constantly discussing and debating.

Messages were flying everywhere in the group chat, or rather, everyone was discussing why there was a meeting during the holiday and what surprises were in store.

Could it be that we'll get two more days off after the Lunar New Year?

Regardless of the reason, despite the discussion, most people still chose to join the video group immediately without hesitation. Unfortunately, everyone who entered saw nothing but a blank screen, and no one knew who was hosting.

===Chapter 456 This is Fate===

"What's going on? It's the Lunar New Year holiday, why are they having such an idiotic meeting?"

"Who knows? Anyway, I'm bored. But I saw that there's a surprise coming, but I don't know what it is."

"Why do I have a bad feeling? Mr. Liao personally opened the live broadcast room. I'm afraid this matter is not so simple."

"It's a holiday, so what? There's no need for all this. If we don't give out red envelopes today, it's not a surprise at all."

"President Liao has already agreed, so there must be red envelopes. You'll get one if you join the group. Everyone, don't worry. We need to quickly ask Da Jue Die what's going on and what the surprise is."
