Against Fate (Eternal Love of Dream/Pillow Book FanFic)

32. Sports Meet

Feng Jiu stretched and dragged herself up from the bed. Then she quickly headed into the shower to prepare for the long day ahead.

All the new employees were required to attend a half-day briefing course on the SOP of the company. In the latter half of the day, everyone will be taking part in a friendly sports-meet.

The winners of the sports-meet would be rewarded with cash vouchers, where they could spend it anywhere inside the resort.

----------------------------------------

Feng Jiu waited at the foyer for Si Ming and Xiao Yan to arrive, before heading to the auditorium hall together for their training.

At the same time, she was hoping that she wouldn't bump into Dong Hua and Ji Heng today.

Once they arrived at the auditorium, they quickly settled down in their seats. The hall was filled with noise and chatter, as everyone waited impatiently for the training to start. The person-in-charge then asked the crowd to quieten down, as the training will be starting soon.

Ji Heng walked up the stage and welcomed everyone.

"Good morning, everyone. I am pleased to see everyone here, and I'll be briefing all of you on the SOP today. I hope I won't bore you to death later on!"

Xiao Yan immediately laughed out loud and shouted, "Ji Heng, you're too funny! I'm sure you won't bore us to death, you'll only kill us with your humour!"

Everyone turned over to stare at Xiao Yan, and Feng Jiu immediately covered his mouth to prevent him from talking more nonsense.

"You're so embarrassing, Xiao Yan! Behave yourself!" Feng Jiu reprimanded him.

Ji Heng secretly rolled her eyes, gave a fake smile, and sarcastically said, "He definitely has a sense of humour. Such a funny guy."

Everyone then started laughing, and Xiao Yan gave a huge satisfied smile.

"Look, Ji Heng praised me."

Xiao Yan was totally oblivious to the fact that Ji Heng was just sarcastic. Feng Jiu and Si Ming then shook their head in disbelief.

Then the person-in-charge tried to calm the crowd down, and announced, "Before we commence the training, let's give a round of applause to welcome the President of Tai Chen Group on stage. He will be giving a short speech now."

Dong Hua effortlessly exude confidence while walking up the stage. He was full of charm and charisma, and it attracted many female employees' attention.

"Our president is so charming! I wonder if he has a girlfriend," A lady sitting in front of Feng Jiu whispered to her friend.

Upon hearing what they said, Xiao Yan cringed and turned to Feng Jiu. "What's so good about that Ice Face? I don't know even why Ji Heng likes him. I'm way better than him."

Feng Jiu kept quiet because she didn't know how to respond to Xiao Yan. Then Si Ming turned over and told Xiao Yan to stay silent.

Dong Hua picked up the microphone and said with a cold and stern voice, "I would like to welcome everyone to the company. In Tai Chen Group, we do not tolerate any mistakes, and you will be terminated without any notice if you are found breaching employment terms."

Xiao Yan immediately commented, "He is indeed an ice face, his heart is made of ice too. I guess we better start being on our toes; if not, we will risk losing our job!"

Si Ming turned over to Xiao Yan again, and said, "I'm glad that you know that, so you better buck up and be on your best performance!"

Feng Jiu didn't say a word and blankly stared at Dong Hua while thinking to herself.
