"Now, please invite our colleagues from the president's office to come up and draw a prize!" After Zhang An gave the order, the host changed the order of the list in his hand and called out to the audience.

"Go ahead." Yu Heng gave Chu Anlan an encouraging look.

"Okay!" Chu Anlan's eyes sparkled like stars as she looked at Yu Heng with a smile.

He took out a black mask, put it on, and went on stage.

"Okay, please have our colleague stand in front of the turntable." The host instructed from the stage: "Would you like to make a statement?"

"No." Chu Anlan wanted to come up and experience it.

"Okay, then—let's spin!" As soon as the host finished speaking, rousing music started playing on stage, instantly creating a tense atmosphere.

Chu Anlan took a deep breath, raised her hand to press the rotating pointer, and spun it forcefully...

Chu Anlan's eyes followed the pointer on the spinning wheel intently, and finally...

"Wow! 100,000 yuan!!" The host's voice rang out, and applause erupted from the audience.

Chu Anlan was also very happy. Although it wasn't the biggest prize, it was still in the second tier.

"This way, please." The host gestured for Chu Anlan to walk toward the cash wall.

"Here you go!" The security guard at the cash wall took a black bag, put 100,000 yuan into it, and handed it to Chu Anlan.

"Thank you!" Chu Anlan accepted the money; 100,000 yuan in cash was quite heavy.

"Another 100,000."

"Is this the president's secretary?"

"We made a profit too."

"Seeing my colleagues win big prizes is so painful for those who are unlucky."

"Waaaaah, this is the closest I've ever come to getting rich. I should have washed my hands a couple more times."

"Half of this pile of cash is gone. Everyone made a huge contribution, but not me."

"Is that Secretary Gao? He doesn't look quite right," Li Peibo asked Wang Yu and Chu Anning beside him.

"It doesn't really look like it. Is it Mr. Yu's new assistant?" Wang Yu was also a little puzzled.

Not many people in the company had met Gao Zhiyuan, but as assistants in the president's office, they were quite familiar with him.

He was certain he had never seen the person on stage before.

"Really? I haven't heard that President Yu is hiring a new assistant. Have you heard about it, Junior Sister Chu?" Li Peibo asked Chu Anning, who was standing next to him.

"Junior Sister Chu?" Seeing Chu Anning staring blankly at the stage, Li Peibo called out to her in confusion.

"Huh? Oh, what did you say, senior brother? I was daydreaming." Chu Anning didn't know what kind of expression she should make.

"Do you know that person?" Li Peibo asked, gesturing towards the stage as he looked at Chu Anning's expression.

Chu Anning paused for a moment. What should she say? That President Yu had successfully met his idol and invited him over?

"That guy looks a bit like my brother."

"Is your brother also working at our company?" Wang Yu was unaware of the company's big boss's celebrity-chasing history, so he assumed that Chu Anning meant that her brother also worked at their company.

"Did they invite him to perform?" Li Peibo asked curiously. "No wonder he's a big shot? A hardcore fan?"

Chu Anning thought about it and still felt something was off. She felt like she had missed some crucial information, but she didn't have enough data to analyze anything.

"Forget it, I'll just ask Chu Anlan when I get back." After thinking for a long time without finding a solution, Chu Anning gave up trying to figure it out.

Over there, Chu Anlan excitedly carried the bag off the stage and ran to Yu Heng's side, proudly showing him his spoils: "Yu Heng, look!"

"Our Lanlan is amazing!" Yu Heng exclaimed, as if Chu Anlan had done something extraordinary.

Chu Anlan was so excited that she wanted to rush into her boyfriend's arms and share her feelings about the lottery with him.

Just as they were about to make a move, they noticed out of the corner of their eye that several people were watching them, and then they remembered what kind of scene they were in.

He froze for a moment, then quickly composed himself and sat back down in his seat.

Yu Heng watched Chu Anlan sit down with a humble expression, and couldn't help but smile, his eyes crinkling...

Although Chu Anning felt she should interrogate Chu Anlan again when they got back, she still kept glancing at the big shots' main table.

When she saw Chu Anlan sitting in the head seat at the main table, her expression became rather subtle.

"Do you want to go and toast President Yu and the others?" Li Peibo also noticed the situation at the main table. Now that the lottery was over, it was time for dinner.

"Since none of them went, there's no need for them to go." Chu Anning shook her head.

Before the event, the higher-ups gave instructions that no one was allowed to toast their superiors; they were just to eat and drink well.

Li Peibo asked Chu Anning because he saw Chu Anlan coming over and thought that since they were siblings, it wouldn't be a problem to offer her a toast.

"Brother Wang, how much did you win?" someone sitting at the same table asked Wang Yu.

"Oh, what a pity, I only won 50,000. What about you guys?" Wang Yu chatted with them as well.

"Hey, me too, it's not bad, the other two are only making 1,500."

"Brother Li, what about you?"

"Haha, I'm luckier than you guys, I won 100,000."

"Wow, that's not bad. But did anyone at our table win 500,000?"

"I won 10,000..."

While listening to everyone's conversation, Chu Anning seemed to see Chu Anlan get up and leave. She told Li Peibo and then ran out after her.

She chased him into the corridor, only to find she'd lost him: "Can you fly?"

Chu Anning muttered something to herself and prepared to go back, but suddenly heard an intimate kissing sound coming from the stairwell behind her.

She felt a little embarrassed and tiptoed towards the banquet hall, when she suddenly recognized a familiar voice.

"You said you'd spend the next two days with me, but you still have to go to a meeting. I'm going to join a production crew in a couple of days!" Chu Anlan looked at Yu Heng with a pitiful expression.

"I'm sorry, I'll try to finish my work as soon as possible, okay? I was planning to have nothing to do these next few days, but there's a new situation at the lab that I need to follow up on." Yu Heng affectionately rubbed his forehead against Chu Anlan's: "Baby, please forgive me, okay?"

"Hmph! You're just trying to flatter me." Chu Anlan pouted.

"I knew Lanlan was the best. After I finish this part of my work and your filming is done, how about we go on a trip?"

"really?"

"Of course, didn't you say last time that you wanted to go somewhere just the two of us? I own a few islands, so we can go there and stay for a few days, just the two of us."

"Then you have to keep your word! We've been together for so long, but we've hardly had any time alone together."

"Yes, it definitely counts." Yu Heng kissed Chu Anlan, feeling a little guilty towards his sweetheart. He had promised to spend these few days with her, but the lab released some data, and he couldn't leave recently.
