That's all.
Chu Zhao closed his eyes, anxiously awaiting the impending storm.
However, after those agonizing seconds...
Chu Zhao did not witness the familiar intense confrontation.
Chu Zhao tentatively opened one eye and realized that Chu Weiguo wasn't even looking at him, still breathing heavily as he stared at the boss's movements.
So you didn't hear me?
Old Chu, you're a father now, how come you're not as calm as I am as a son?
He let out a long sigh of resignation.
Chu Zhao roused himself and prepared to repeat what he had just said.
It can happen in a fleeting moment when you glance at the counter.
Chu Zhao suddenly realized that the atmosphere inside the lottery shop... seemed a little off!
Especially this boss, he's a bit too calm!
This is the first prize! There are ten winning tickets. After paying taxes, the prize money could be tens of millions!
According to the plot of the online article, shouldn't the boss have widened his eyes in disbelief, fainted, or been tempted by greed to try and pocket the lottery ticket?
Why did he just say, with a slightly surprised tone, "Oh, you actually won the lottery?"
Is this reasonable?
next second.
Under Chu Zhao's increasingly puzzled gaze, the shopkeeper actually handed the lottery ticket back to him, congratulating him with just the right amount of enthusiasm.
"What incredible luck! I won ten third-prize tickets; after taxes, I'll have over 20,000 yuan!"
"Engineer Chu, I remember Xiao Zhao bought these lottery tickets, right? Next time, I'll ask him to buy a few for me too, so I can enjoy your good fortune!"
Before the words had even finished speaking.
Chu Weiguo, his face crinkling with laughter, quickly stepped forward, carefully took the lottery ticket with both hands, and put it into his pocket.
"Hey! What luck or anything, it was just a coincidence!"
"We'll be going now. After we receive the award, we'll treat you and the neighbors to a meal."
"Okay!"
He touched the lottery ticket in his pocket to make sure he wasn't dreaming.
Chu Weiguo, feeling unsteady on his feet, turned around, just as he was about to call Chu Zhao home, when he saw Chu Zhao staring wide-eyed, her face full of disbelief!
Third prize?
These are clearly first-prize numbers, how the hell did they become third-prize numbers?!
Chu Zhao could even accept that he hadn't won the lottery, because in that case, it was possible that he had misremembered.
But what the hell is this third prize?
"Boss!"
"Show me the winning numbers for this draw!"
At this moment, Chu Zhao was panting heavily, his eyes were bloodshot, and his incredulous expression was mixed with a hysterical madness!
Upon seeing this, the shopkeeper was startled and quickly pulled up the winning numbers, showing them to Chu Zhao.
Blue ball number... Correct!
The last five red ball numbers...are also correct!
But the very first red ball number, which Chu Zhao remembered as "3," changed to "1!"
A single change in numbers turned this lottery ticket, which Chu Zhao had high hopes for, from a first prize that could have won tens of millions of yuan into a third prize of just over 20,000 yuan!
Damn it!
Could it be... there really is a mechanism to prevent time travelers?
Before Chu Zhao, whose mind was in complete disarray, could even come to his senses...
Chu Weiguo then grabbed his arm and forcibly dragged him back to the car.
"Hey kid, what's wrong with you?"
"Weren't you just excitedly saying you wanted to bring me here to receive the award?"
"Now that you've confirmed you've won, why aren't you smiling at all?"
"father..."
She forced out a smile that looked worse than crying.
Chu Zhao pouted and replied with a pained expression.
"If I told you this lottery ticket originally won the first prize, would you believe me?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Weiguo paused for two seconds, then burst into laughter!
"You little brat, you really dare to dream!"
"But... it's better to just think about it than to think about it."
"If we suddenly have so much unexpected wealth, it might not be a good thing for our family."
"This amount of money is just right, enough to make our family's life much easier. Dad is already very happy and satisfied."
He patted Chu Zhao's head.
Seeing Chu Zhao looking dejected, Chu Weiguo's smile grew even brighter.
"My son is quite lucky."
"He'll definitely make a name for himself in the future!"
"By the way, didn't you have something you wanted to discuss with me?"
"I think you mentioned it briefly at the lottery shop just now..."
"What was it again...?"
Swallowed.
Chu Zhao braced himself and put on a very obsequious expression.
"father..."
"Um?"
"I don't want to join the army..."
In the blink of an eye!
Just as Chu Weiguo's slap was about to land on Chu Zhao's face.
Chu Zhao dodged abruptly, then, in a panic, tried to rouse his father's love.
"Father! Don't rush to do it!"
"Let me explain!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Weiguo grinned menacingly, rolled up his sleeves, gritted his teeth, and roared angrily.
"You don't need to figure out how to fool me."
"I understand."
"You fucking deserve a beating!"
A brutal beating is on its way!
Chu Zhao made up her mind and decided not to hide anymore. Instead, she put on a very serious expression and stared straight into Chu Weiguo's eyes.
The last time Chu Weiguo saw Chu Zhao like this was a few months ago during the college entrance examination.
At that time, Chu Zhao patted his chest firmly, expressing his determination to get into Anhui University.
As it turned out, Chu Zhao kept his promise.
"Ugh."
He sighed with a sense of helplessness.
Chu Weiguo suddenly leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and seemed to have aged considerably in an instant.
"Tell me about it."
What are you thinking?
to be frank.
Chu Zhao was not afraid of Chu Weiguo scolding him, nor was he afraid of Chu Weiguo beating him.
Looking at the calm and composed Old Chu, Chu Zhao felt a lump in her throat and a lump formed in her throat for no apparent reason.
"father..."
"For me, joining the army and studying were ultimately about finding a job and earning money to support my family."
"I didn't have the means before, but now that I've won the lottery, I want to use the money to start a business."
"Doing business?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Weiguo suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Chu Zhao with a furrowed brow.
He didn't take action directly, nor did he immediately refute Chu Zhao's idea. Instead, he used the simplest and most common language to earnestly persuade Chu Zhao.
"If this money was earned through your own abilities."
"Don't even mention you want to use this money to start a business; even if you want your father to provide the funds, he will support you wholeheartedly!"
"I believe in my son; he has the ability!"
"But you got that 20,000 yuan by luck, it has nothing to do with your ability!"
How can you guarantee that the money you gained by luck won't be lost again because of bad luck in the future?
"Dad knows you've grown up, you're a man now, and you want to share some of the burden for our family."
"But these things can't be rushed!"
Speaking of which...
Chu Weiguo raised his voice slightly, as if hoping that Chu Zhao would remember his next words!
"Being born is easy, living is easy."
"But when those two words are put together, it becomes quite complicated!"
