I Have Awesome Luck - Chapter 30
300% Luck
After hearing Chen Qing’s explanation, Li Muyao was a bit surprised. She never thought a securities company would organize such meaningful events, so she was indeed interested.
After Li Muyao asked them about the time and venue and asked if Color Hair wanted to go, she agreed to attend the event.
“We’re certainly willing to participate in such a meaningful event. Besides, we’ll have more than a week to prepare for it. We can adjust the time of our day-offs in advance.”
“If we’re going to a nursing home, we can borrow some hairdressing tools from the salon and bring them there.” Color Hair had never participated in this kind of charity event. When Li Muyao told him about her feelings during and after participating in these events, Color Hair was also interested. He even thought about what hairdressing tools he should bring.
Color Hair thought he should ask Manager Tony what he needed to pay attention to when hairdressing the elderly later when he got back.
Right, he should bring some black hair dye as well.
“That’d be better. After all, you’re professionals in hairdressing. I believe that the elderly will like you a lot.” Chen Qing and Liu Gucheng were indeed professional securities managers. After treating Li Muyao and Color Hair to this meal, that little bit of distance between them was also gone. They asked Li Muyao and Color Hair to call them Brother Chen and Brother Liu directly.
When they were ready to pay, the waitress gave them the bill and asked if they needed the receipt.
Color Hair immediately nodded. “Yes, we need it, one that we can scrape for a prize. Brother Chen, can I have the receipt if you’re buying?”
Nothing happened before the waitress asked if they needed the receipt. Once she mentioned it, Color Hair immediately thought about last night when he went to eat with his family, his father got the receipt but didn’t win anything, and he then talked about Li Muyao winning more than ten thousand yuan at the lottery shop again.
Color Hair suddenly got excited when he heard he could have the receipt.
“Of course! The scratch card lottery at the lottery shop on our street was especially popular a while back. Do you want to try your luck on the receipt after hearing that someone spent a hundred yuan and won more than ten thousand yuan?”
They were all businesses on the same street, so they could know very quickly which shop was the most popular and what big or interesting incidents happened.
Chen Qing and Liu Gucheng had surely heard that someone spent a hundred yuan on the two-yuan scratch cards at the lottery shop and won thirteen thousand yuan.
For a lottery, winning thirteen thousand yuan wasn’t a lot, but it was really rare for the two-yuan scratch cards, like a once-in-a-lifetime thing.
“Hahaha, yes! Brother Chen and Brother Liu, you’ll never be able to guess that the person who won the prize you heard about is sitting right in front of you!” Color Hair said very excitedly. After winning the grand prize, Color Hair had only shown off in front of his family. He didn’t even tell anyone in the salon.
Only lottery buyers, who witnessed Li Muyao win the prize that day, would talk to Color Hair when they went to shampoo their hair and get a haircut in the salon. Of course, they all ended up asking Color Hair if his sister had bought any other lottery recently or if she made any investment related to numbers.
“Was it you, Color Hair?” Liu Gucheng looked at Color Hair and Li Muyao. He thought that a cute girl like Li Muyao wouldn’t go to buy lottery tickets, so it could only be Color Hair.
“Of course not. It was my Sister Yao! My Sister Yao has really good luck. When the waitress brings us the receipt, I’ll let you see what it’s like to have
carp
luck from the God of Wealth!”
The emotional and thrilled Color Hair had already taken out a fifty-cent coin from his wallet and put it in Li Muyao’s hand. “Sister Yao, my parents said you have carp luck. You’ll win another grand prize again later.”
“At that time, we’ll treat Brother Chen and Brother Liu to a meal!”
Li Muyao thought Color Hair was too cute. Although she also felt that she became much luckier after being reborn, she didn’t think she could have such good fortune every time. She had wanted to buy a lottery ticket to try it out, but she had been busy lately, so she hadn’t done that yet.
Of course, Li Muyao knew she couldn’t be too greedy!
Li Muyao only imagined winning five million yuan in the lottery.
“Sure! If I win the prize, I certainly have to treat Brother Chen and Brother Liu to a big feast.” Li Muyao truly thought Color Hair seemed more and more like her twin brothers. He was so gullible.
Color Hair took the receipt the waitress gave him and he quickly gave it to Li Muyao. He stood next to her as he rubbed his hands a bit nervously. “Sister Yao, scrape it slowly and gently. The receipt is fragile. You’ll remove the words if you do it too hard.
“We can’t be too excited and ruin the receipt.”
Chen Qing and Liu Gucheng were affected by Color Hair’s excitement and anxiousness. They also got up and walked to the back of Li Muyao and asked the waitress to wait for a while before leaving.
Li Muyao was also affected by Color Hair’s excitement. She felt like she wasn’t holding a fifty-cent coin, but a gold coin that was worth ten thousand yuan. When she started scraping the receipt, she really didn’t use much force. She gently scraped it from side to side. After that, Li Muyao closed her eyes and dared not to see the result. She was worried that Color Hair would be disappointed.
“Does it say ‘thank you for your patronage’?”
In her previous life, Li Muyao always went to eat with her colleagues as well. She might not have got a thousand receipts, but there were at least a hundred. And yet, she had never won a prize, so she didn’t have much expectation this time.
Even though she really seemed to have gotten much better luck!
“This… This is really carp luck from the God of Wealth!!!”
When Chen Qing saw the words “fifty thousand yuan grand prize” and a string of numbers slowly appearing on the lottery area on the receipt, he stammered in shock. He looked as thrilled and astonished as Color Hair.
“F*ck! She really won! This is the first time I’ve seen someone winning a lottery… Oh no, Muyao, your luck is totally unbelievable!” Liu Gucheng immediately admired Li Muyao. He and Chen Qing had wondered before whether Li Muyao was purely lucky or if she really knew stocks.
The truth was right in front of them now. Li Muyao truly was a carp consecrated by the God of Wealth, as Color Hair said!
Li Muyao was truly lucky!!!
“Hahahaha, I told you Sister Yao is lucky. That’s not ordinary good fortune! My dad said it’s carp luck. I didn’t get it before, but now, I think it’s true!
“Hey, waitress, why are you still standing there? Ask your manager to come here now. We want to redeem our prize!!!
“Hehe, Brother Chen, Brother Liu, we can come here to eat again tomorrow. Don’t reject us!” Color Hair was very optimistic. Whenever they spent two hundred yuan in this restaurant, they would get a receipt. Chen Qing paid 360 yuan just now and Li Muyao directly won the grand prize of fifty thousand yuan. If they come again tomorrow, they could try it once more.
With Sister Yao’s carp luck, she might be able to win the grand prize again!
Let alone the fifty-thousand grand prize, it would be a good deal even if she won a free meal. The food in this restaurant tasted so good!
