Chapter 305: Chapter 304: Do You Want to Beat Him Up? [28,000 recommendation votes plus update, third release]

Lu Xiaobu advanced again, and as he passed each desk, the employees at the previous desk would sit down, and those beside him would stand up and shout loudly.

"Young Master Bu, may you reign supreme for thousands of generations and unify the Jianghu!"

"Young Master Bu, may you reign supreme for thousands of generations and unify the Jianghu!"

"Young Master Bu, may you reign supreme for thousands of generations and unify the Jianghu!"

The shouting throughout the venue was like waves, one after another, where the echo of one shout barely faded before the next shout began.

This entrance was designed with an overwhelmingly domineering flair!

It even had a bit of a military parade vibe.

A grin spread across Lu Xiaobu’s face.

Not bad, this is the vibe I was looking for.

Huo Yichen watched Lu Xiaobu’s progress, his heart brimming with surprise and delight!

He found that the steps of this stand-in didn’t show the slightest hesitation, still so carefree and dashing!

He had a feeling that even if Young Master Bu himself had been here, it wouldn’t be any different!

Lu Xiaobu walked all the way to the stage.

Huo Yichen hurriedly passed the microphone to Lu Xiaobu.

Next up was Xiaobu’s speech.

And it was that kind of speech without a script.

After all, no one dared to write a script for Young Master Bu, so the stand-in was also left to improvise.

Only in this way could we best simulate tomorrow’s annual meeting.

This was also the second point Huo Yichen worried about.

Because after all, a stand-in is just a stand-in and hasn’t reached Young Master Bu’s stature, doesn’t have that mindset, and whatever they say comes off as weak, without that domineering presence.

Plus, the stuff he says is all those worn-out cliches, thanking this, thanking that, looking back at the past, looking forward to the future, and so on.

How could the real Young Master Bu ever say things like that!

Really!

So, to make it perfect, he ordered that during this segment, from the stand-in to the employees, everyone was free to do as they pleased, and he would absolutely not intervene!

Even if it turned ridiculous, the show had to go on!

At this moment, the employees were also looking rather uninterested.

After all, listening to a leader’s speech was the most bothersome.

So many people started making small movements.

With so many people around, it wasn’t like they could be seen!

Of course, talking was out of the question—that would disturb the order of the venue.

But as the saying goes, where there’s a policy, there’s a way around it.

Many people started communicating via cell phones!

"Ugh, here we go again, honestly, we could skip this part entirely."

"Yeah, anyway this stand-in can’t replicate the vibe of Young Master Bu."

"Besides, listen to his speech, all the ’thanks to this person, thanks to that person.’ If Young Master Bu says this kind of thing tomorrow, I’ll live-stream a ’Sun’ brand fan."

"Isn’t it over yet? We’ve been rehearsing all day, I’m so tired!"

"Yeah, to be honest, for tomorrow’s annual meeting, aside from catching a glimpse of Young Master Bu, I don’t want to watch anything else."

"Who would want to? We’ve seen those shows five times already, I’m sick of it!"

"Practically zero excitement."

"Well, not exactly zero, actually, I am kind of looking forward to the moment when Young Master Bu disrupts the whole event."

"Disrupt? It’s our company’s annual meeting, what’s there for Young Master Bu to disrupt?"

"It shows you don’t know Young Master Bu at all. Who is he? The notorious playboy who hates this formulaic crap!"

"That makes sense, now you mention it, I’m starting to look forward to it too!"

"..."

"Cough cough cough."

Lu Xiaobu tested the microphone.

To avoid exposing his voice, he deliberately lowered his pitch.

When everyone thought he was about to spout the same old cliches.

His first sentence completely set the room ablaze.

"Do you all want to give this guy a beating?!"

Lu Xiaobu said this as he pointed at Huo Yichen beside him with a sly grin.

As soon as these words came out, the utterly boring atmosphere was instantly ignited.

"Pfft!"

"Hahaha! Yes, we do!"

"I’ve been wanting to beat this guy up for a while, what’s with all the idle rehearsal?"

"6666, these words, they really have the vibe of Young Master Bu!"

"That’s what I’m talking about!"

"..."

Huo Yichen turned green with envy.

Motherfucker, has this stand-in lost his mind? Daring to make fun of me.

The private reward I had planned for you is gone.

But he couldn’t speak up either. He had said before that this part was meant for improvisation.

And these words, I must admit, do indeed sound like something Young Master Bu would say.

"Alright then, let’s move on to the first activity." Lu Xiaobu chuckled and waved to Huo Yichen, "Come on, you start with twenty frog jumps to entertain everyone."

"What?!"

Huo Yichen’s face twitched uncontrollably!

He couldn’t help but dig at his ear.

He didn’t hear it wrong, did he?

This stand-in must be crazy, daring to mess with him, the chief planner!

Doesn’t he fear the possibility of me giving him a hard time later on?

"What’s wrong? Not listening?"

Lu Xiaobu eyed Huo Yichen slantingly.

The employees below started to goad as well.

Since this part was meant to be improvised, they might as well do whatever made them happy.

"Eh! The chief planner chickened out!"

"Shh! Who said we had to keep it real? Now, in front of you stands Young Master Bu, don’t you listen to Young Master Bu?"

"Frog jumps, frog jumps, frog jumps!"

"Someone’s chickened out!"

"..."

These people have been tormented by Huo Yichen all day long.

Now that they have a chance for revenge, of course, they won’t let it go!

"Fine, I’ll do it!"

Huo Yichen ground his teeth and said.

Thinking he can control me, huh.

Fine, stand-in, you’ve got guts!

I’ll accept the rules I set, but just you wait.

Just you wait!

We’ll see who plays whom in a moment!

This is outrageous!

After silently setting his resolve, the chief planner, Huo Yichen, squatted down and began to do frog jumps in circles.

The employees were bursting with laughter!

"Hahaha, awesome!"

"This is the best act I’ve seen today, even better than those celebrities singing!"

"Hahaha, let out the grudge, feel so relieved!"

"Young Master Bu is awesome!"

"This isn’t Young Master Bu, why are you cheering for him?"

"How’s it not Young Master Bu? The stand-in is now risking his life to play Young Master Bu, shouldn’t he be praised?"

"Well, that’s true! Hahaha, exhilarating!"

"..."

Even though Huo Yichen was tired from the jumping and secretly held a grudge against Lu Xiaobu,

he was the chief planner after all and could distinguish between personal and official matters.

Seeing the whole atmosphere of the meeting rising, he couldn’t help but nod to himself secretly.

It has to be said, this stand-in, although a bit too audacious, the effect was not bad!

Finally, after finishing, Huo Yichen wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a deep breath, it’s been a long time since he exercised, so tiring, his legs were sore!

Lu Xiaobu chuckled with a smirk curling at the corner of his mouth.

His playful spirit was coming alive!

He was getting hyped up!

"Next, let’s start the second activity..."
