Chapter 374 - A Meal With Her Employees (Three)
While having a sumptuous meal, several of the workers sang to Hailee and Vincent, which all these songs are love songs Hailee enjoyed personally.
The workers that she had are not only skilled and diligent employees, they also have hidden talents, and many of them proudly showed to them today.
After a song presentation, a group of married couples came forward. They halted five meters away from their table; then, lively music aired. They presented a tribal wedding dance to Hailee and Vincent, which later, they invited their lady boss and Vincent.
Hailee laughed when Vincent\'s face reddened. She knew her husband was a very low-key person in partying, except that one time.
She recalled the time they performed dirty dancing at Hazel\'s 20th birthday. And since this is a sacred day of their betrothal celebration, they can\'t show that to everyone.
"Come on! It\'s not that hard!" Hailee pulled Vincent by hand, urging him they must join them. Finally, Vincent let her drag him in the middle and tried to follow the dance steps.
And after the first song, she called Hazel and whispered. "Can you ask them if they know the song from the movie Queen?"
"London Thumakda?"
Hailee smiled and nodded.
Hazel introduced the movie after Hailee shared with the girls that she almost got married to her best friend. But something that happens, and so, she has to move on.
Then Hazel came up with an idea to have a movie night at her house, and she chose this movie Queen.
After the movie, Hazel teaches them the steps of the soundtrack.
Hailee loved the movie and its message. Queen moves on with her life without getting back to her ex-fiance, like her!
She focused on completing Dream City by looking for the best architect who could help her… And she never thinks about it, that life has a beautiful plan for her, and that\'s to fall in love with him.
At this very moment, she couldn\'t take her eyes off that man, who was still very shy to dance in front of every worker that she had.
Led by Hazel, they followed her dance steps while the wives from the India Construction firm sang along with the music Hazel played from her phone. Later on, everyone claps their hands after they familiarize themselves with the beat of the music and the other workers from India join them dancing.
Hailee giggled when Vince was still embarrassed to dance. Her smile broadened when the other Indian engineers and architects came close to Vincent and taught him to do simple steps.
Vincent is actually not a poor dancer, and he is just simply timid, and he needs someone to arouse his charisma.
She walked toward him, and she began dancing around him. Vincent looked a little relaxed now. His eyes didn\'t leave Hailee but followed her around. Soon, their dance moves coincide.
Standing on the other side of the park, Jacob and Frederick cheered. The two older men, too, enjoyed watching the pair dancing with the other couple.
Jacob, incredibly glad that Vincent got along well with the other construction firm, and with that, he was a proud father-in-law.
"You raised your son into a great man," said Jacob to Frederick.
Fred smiled, delighted to hear Jacob\'s praise regarding his son. "I am indeed a blissed father. Vincent is an obedient son. I honestly admitted that we are very strict in disciplining him where he didn\'t enjoy his teenage years much, even during college, and Hilda firmly implements a curfew for him. But I am happy that Vincent showed interest in learning how to manage the company at an early age, and later, he took up architecture."
"And I could see he excelled in this field. Look! He certainly captured my daughter\'s eyes and even her heart!"
The two fathers had a broad smile watching the pair. Fred concurred with Jacob\'s statement.
Since Vincent meets Hailee, he is ready to turn the world upside down just to fight his love for her, even though they don\'t know her real identity.
And even if Hailee was not a girl from an affluent family, as long as Vincent was happy and behaved well. He knew to himself that he would give his blessing to his son.
However, this girl is not just someone else, but she is someone\'s princess and a Queen for many… in which, to the Shen family, she is now the Emperor\'s beloved Empress.

As the day goes on merrily, more people present a tribal dance and sing in their language.
Hailee wants to take all the opportunities she could spend longer with everyone. She called Tim and Nancy and talked with them briefly for some instruction, and the pair were excited.
Nancy and Tim spoke over the microphone after they came up with some brilliant ideas.
"Hi, everyone! Have you enjoyed our festivity today?"
"Yes!"
"That\'s great! Our lady boss surely was delighted to hear that you were all glad about her treats for us."
"We love you, boss!"
Hailee was teary-eyed upon hearing this. Her eyes swept over the entire crowd that surrounded her. She waves her hand and blows kisses to the air on her left and right.
Vincent reached her back and rubbed it lovingly. "Boss, I want you to know that my love is bigger than these thousand people here. Even if they all combine their love for you, they can\'t compare to mine."
Hailee chuckled at what Vincent whispered to her. But honestly, Shun and Theo, who were seated across from them, heard it clearly.
The two men who were also saying sweet words to their wives felt embarrassed how it sounded corny when it reached the other\'s ears. But there\'s no doubt Hailee was enchanted by Vincent\'s corny remarks, like how their wives\' eyes twinkled and giggled with excitement.
Meanwhile, Tim and Nancy made an announcement that caused everyone to jump.
"By our boss\' treat, we will have a few games with cash prizes!"
"Hurray!"
"Yahoo! Bring it on!" Everyone is prepared for whatever game it is.
"Alright!" Tim further announced. "For our first game, we have a tug of war!"
Everyone cheered as they loved this game. Many of them remembered how they used to play this game, often back in their respective countries.
"Now, I will announce the criteria for this game. Of course, we have to follow some rules!" Nancy added. "The requirements for this game are twelve players! Each construction firm should send one of their bosses, two engineers, two architects, one construction foreman, two masons, one equipment operator, one electrician, and two carpenters!"
The seven construction firms quickly assembled their team, including the Shen Group.
"Our boss!"
Vincent looks at Hailee as if she will permit him to join in. He got excited when Hailee smiled and nodded. Vincent\'s team cheered when he walked toward them, but Hailee called him out.
"Your coat."
Hailee helped him take off his cashmere coat. Underneath him is a long-sleeved shirt that is tight-fitting to his muscled body.
"Alright, all the groups fall in line now. But wait, we only have seven construction firms?"
Everyone wondered what to do with Nancy\'s remark. Hailee called Tim to come over to the table, and she stood up and took the microphone from Tim, and spoke.
"I especially chose this game so that DAVIES GROUP can join in the fun! Would my team allow themselves to lose?" Hailee\'s tone sounded challenging to her knights.
Pitt and James rushed in the middle and started boasting about showing off their half-naked bodies. They took off their coat and shirt, leaving the pants on.
When Hailee announced this, all the female secretaries and female assistants were elated to cheer their bosses.
Hailee looked at Geoffrey and Bryan, seated at the third table from hers. Since Pitt and James had been showing off too much, they had nothing to do but stand on their feet and take off their coats as well.
Their secretaries urge them to take off their shirts too, but they are not as shameless as Pitt and James, who keep showing their muscles to the other group, which only laughed and saluted them.
"We will make sure that you will win this game, boss!" They told James, whom they were familiar with, his temperament.
"Huh? All of you will bungee jump if you do that!"
Bungee is when tying one\'s feet, then jumping from the helicopter, which James owned one!
The workers swallowed and smiled.
"Then we have no choice but to beat you, boss!"
"That\'s right!" James laughed loudly.
The rest of the executives shook their heads and sighed inwardly.
"Come here, James!" Josh and Trevor hold each of his arms, pull him away from the other team, and bring him to their line.
"Stop threatening the workers!" Leo smacked his back and pushed him in the front. "Since you were so excited, then you will be the team leader today."
"Ehhhh? Why me? Geoffrey is the CEO now! Or Bryan?" He pointed them out. "How about Pitt? He is the princess\' Chief of Bodyguards!"
"Stop complaining! Would you allow us to lose face with your complaint?" Geoffrey pulled the corner of his mouth. He knew what James feared, and Alfie gossiped that he was dating Hailee\'s much younger friend.
James sneered at the others. "Don\'t you guys dare to let go of the rope!"
The men only grin at James. He twitched his mouth and hissed at them. James stood straight, nervously staring at the ground while helplessly grumbling in his head.
\'I don\'t want to swim in the mud!\' He dug his own pit!
"Good luck, guys! Enjoy the bachelor party you wished to have!" Beaming gleefully, Hailee cheered her knights.
Of course.. There is no fun if it\'s just an ordinary TUG of WAR.
