Chapter 232 Company Movie Trip (2)
On Wednesday afternoon, the sun shone brightly, and a gentle breeze blew, as if even the heavens were celebrating this special charity event. Colleagues from the company headquarters and various subsidiaries, like a joyful army summoned to their destination—the movie theater—marched in a grand procession.
The subsidiary's company bus was filled with laughter and chatter. Marketing Manager Li Shiqing and Business Manager Zhang Chen, a married couple, sat by the window, excitedly discussing today's activities.
Li Shiqing: "Honey, do you think watching 'Ne Zha 2' today will be especially exciting?"
Zhang Chen: "Of course! The first one was such a hit, so the second one will definitely be even more exciting. Besides, it's rare for the company to organize such a large-scale event, where everyone can watch a movie together. It's so much fun."
The car sped along and finally arrived at the movie theater. Colleagues got out and gathered at the entrance, creating a lively scene. Li Yuan stood in the crowd, watching the bustling scene with a satisfied smile on her face.
Just then, Li Shiqing and Zhang Chen walked over hand in hand. Upon seeing Li Yuan, they immediately called out, "Mom!"
Li Yuan greeted them with a smile, affectionately patting Li Shiqing's head: "Darling, son-in-law, you've finally arrived. Was there any traffic on the way?"
Li Shiqing smiled and said, "No, everything went smoothly. Mom, look how much everyone is looking forward to this movie, your idea is fantastic."
Zhang Chen chimed in, "Yes, Mom. The company is organizing such a fun activity. The employees will definitely be very happy, and their work enthusiasm will be greatly improved."
The other colleagues from other companies around them looked surprised when they heard the conversation between the family of three.
"So Chairman Li is that girl's mother."
"No wonder Shi Qing and Zhang Chen are so outstanding, it turns out they have such an amazing mother."
Li Yuan smiled and said to everyone, "Alright, alright, everyone stop standing there and hurry up and go in to get your tickets checked. The movie is about to start."
Everyone entered the theater in an orderly fashion and found their seats according to the seating chart. Li Yuan and her family sat in seats near the front, surrounded by familiar colleagues.
The movie started, and the theater fell silent instantly as everyone was captivated by the exciting scenes on the big screen. When Nezha's familiar figure appeared on the screen, everyone couldn't help but cheer.
Li Shiqing watched intently, occasionally bursting into laughter at the funny scenes in the movie. She nudged Zhang Chen beside her and said with a smile, "Honey, look at Nezha's expression, it's hilarious."
Zhang Chen also grinned from ear to ear: "Yes, this little Nezha is still as mischievous and cute as ever."
Seeing her daughter and son-in-law so happy, Li Yuan smiled so hard her eyes narrowed into slits. She leaned back in her chair, savoring this rare moment of relaxation.
There's a touching scene in the movie where Nezha sacrifices himself to protect his family and friends. Seeing this, Li Shiqing's eyes welled up with tears, and she instinctively grasped Zhang Chen's hand. Zhang Chen sensed her emotions, gently patted the back of her hand, and gave her a comforting look.
Li Yuan was also moved by this scene, and she said with emotion, "Family and friendship are truly the most precious things in the world. Just like our colleagues at the company, we work together and strive together, aren't we like a family?"
Li Shiqing and Zhang Chen both nodded in agreement. Li Shiqing said, "Mom is right. In the company, everyone helps each other and overcomes difficulties together. This feeling is really heartwarming."
The movie ended amidst applause, and everyone was still immersed in the plot, feeling a lingering sense of enjoyment.
Stepping out of the theater, everyone was in exceptionally good spirits. Li Yuan waved her hand and said, "Let's go get some snacks and drinks, it's the company's treat today!"
The crowd cheered and followed Li Yuan to a dessert shop next to the movie theater. The dessert shop was filled with all kinds of pastries and drinks, a dazzling array that made everyone's mouths water.
Colleagues picked out their favorite foods and found seats. Li Yuan and her family also found a large table and sat together.
Li Shiqing's eyes lit up as she looked at the pastries on the table: "Wow, Mom, these pastries look so delicious! I want to eat this strawberry cake."
Zhang Chen smiled and said, "I'd like an Americano with this chocolate chip cookie."
Li Yuan looked at them and said with a smile, "You two, all you know is how to eat. Eat more, you'll have the energy to work when you're full."
At this moment, several colleagues walked over and greeted Li Yuan with smiles.
"Chairman Li, I'm so happy today. Thank you for organizing such a wonderful event."
"Yes, Mr. Li, the movie was great, and the snacks were delicious too."
Li Yuan smiled and said, "I'm glad everyone's having fun. We all work so hard usually, so let's relax today. What do you guys think of the movie?"
A colleague exclaimed excitedly, "It was so wonderful, especially the friendship between Nezha and Ao Bing, it was so touching."
Another colleague said, "Yes, and those funny scenes made my stomach hurt from laughing."
Everyone was discussing the movie animatedly, creating a lively atmosphere. Li Yuan watched this bustling scene with a sense of satisfaction.
After finishing their snacks, it was getting late. Everyone said their goodbyes and prepared to go home. Li Yuan and her family also said goodbye to their colleagues and headed to the parking lot together.
Li Shiqing, linking arms with Li Yuan, said happily, "Mom, today was so much fun! I haven't felt this relaxed in ages."
Li Yuan smiled and said, "As long as you're happy, Mom is happy. In the future, the company will organize more activities like this."
Zhang Chen opened the car door and let Li Yuan and Li Shiqing get in first. He then got into the driver's seat and started the car.
As the car slowly drove out of the parking lot, Li Yuan looked at the night view outside the window and said with emotion, "Seeing everyone so happy today makes me feel that everything I did was worthwhile. The company is like a big family; only when everyone is happy can the company get better and better."
Li Shiqing and Zhang Chen both agreed. Li Shiqing said, "Mom, don't worry, we will definitely work hard and work with our colleagues to make the company even better."
Zhang Chen also said, "Yes, Mom, with such a good leader like you and such a warm team, we will definitely do our best."
The car drove away into the night, and today's special charity event came to a close amidst laughter and joy. But this happiness and warmth will forever remain in the hearts of every colleague, becoming a shared and cherished memory.
