Chapter 963: King of Luck

~8 min read 1,461 words

This girl was none other than Jian Yue. Because Jian Minglang kept trying to arrange a marriage for her, she was very angry and hadn't returned for three years. So, this time she took a long leave, preparing to return to the army after the National Day holiday.

And this bottle of cola that won the prize was bought on the 1st, when she was driving Gu Minglan and Su Su to the airport. The weather was hot, so she bought it at a roadside shop on the way back.

Actually, she didn't want to drink cola, but thinking of supporting her eldest brother-in-law's principles, she bought a case. But she only drank one bottle, and the rest had been sitting in the car untouched.

Today at noon, Jian Mingfan ran over to find her with a newspaper and a plastic bag of bottle caps, saying he wanted to share the joy of winning with her.

The two of them lay on the floor, checking the bottle caps for more than half an hour. The joy of winning was gone, replaced only by Jian Mingfan's unwilling curses.

Then, Jian Yue suddenly remembered the case of Very Cola in the car, ran out to bring it back, and was met with Jian Mingfan's contempt and mockery.

"I bought so many and didn't win, you bought this case and want to win? Keep dreaming." But the first bottle he opened was the second prize, a motorcycle.

If it had just been that, it would have been fine, but inside this case of Very Cola, there wasn't just one second prize; there was also a refrigerator, two electric fans, and a bicycle. It nearly killed him with anger.

Jian Yue had simply become the King of Luck, jumping up and down with excitement. She went back to her room to change her clothes, took the second-prize bottle cap, ran out, and took a taxi to Ditan to redeem the prize.

As for the refrigerator, electric fans, and bicycle, give them to little Fanzi. If it hadn't been for that kid's blind showing off, she definitely would have overlooked this. By the time the event ended, she might not even have remembered.

The young girl responsible for taking pictures held the camera and said: "Let's take a picture."

"No!"

Jian Yue waved her hand coolly. Whether it was her family background or her status as a soldier, she had always been very careful about her words and actions, especially in such public places, and she would absolutely not take pictures.

"Okay!"

The young girl was stunned. She didn't expect to be refused, but she didn't force it.

She just felt that this girl was too cool; not only beautiful but also had temperament.

At this time, the staff member came over with the motorcycle paperwork: "Comrade, please fill out the information."

Under the staff's guidance, Jian Yue filled out the information and signed her name.

"Congratulations!" The staff member handed the vehicle paperwork and keys to Jian Yue: "That first motorcycle over there, the tank is full, you can ride it away directly."

"Thank you!"

Jian Yue took the keys, held the paperwork, walked to the first motorcycle, inserted the key into the lock, and turned it. Then, with her long legs, she skillfully used her toe to flick the starter lever and stepped down.

The engine started. She squeezed the clutch, shifted gears, and gave it gas. The motorcycle roared, the rear tire rubbed against the ground, and a smell of burnt rubber drifted with the wind.

Immediately after, the tire drew an arc on the ground, a harsh screeching sound rang out, and after a beautiful drift, the front wheel of the bike lifted sharply, and the motorcycle shot out, quickly disappearing at the intersection ahead.

This scene left everyone dumbfounded. The smell of gasoline and the high temperature from the tire rubbing against the ground, the smell of burnt rubber hadn't even dissipated yet, and the person had already disappeared. This was just too fast.

"So cool!" The young girl taking pictures murmured.

………………

Jian Yue rode the motorcycle, dashing around Dongcheng until after four in the afternoon before returning home. By this time, that kid Jian Mingfan was already gone, and along with him, the four winning bottle caps had disappeared.

"Look at you, you haven't been back in three years, and finally took a long leave, yet you run out all day, not staying home. What did you come back for?"

Jian Yue's mother, Guan Yunmei, came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of food, complaining with dissatisfaction.

Jian Yue threw her sunglasses on the coffee table and lay back on the sofa.

"You guys are at work all day, what am I supposed to do staying home alone?"

"What about at night?" Guan Yunmei said: "You've been back for almost a month, how many times have you eaten dinner at home?"

"Aren't I back for dinner now?" Jian Yue knew she was in the wrong and climbed up from the sofa, "Mom, I have good news to tell you."

"What good news could you possibly have?" Guan Yunmei snorted and turned back into the kitchen.

Jian Yue followed her in with the motorcycle paperwork: "I won a prize, I won a motorcycle."

Guan Yunmei sneered: "You have that kind of luck? Did you buy it yourself and are afraid I'll scold you, so you're saying you won it?"

Jian Yue shook the paperwork in front of Guan Yunmei: "Look at what this is, Suzuki King, imported. It costs nearly 30,000 yuan in total. Even if you smashed my bones to pieces, I couldn't come up with that much money."

When they were deciding on the prizes, Wu Huilin and the group leaders thought about buying domestic motorcycles.

But the first prize was a Santana, so if the second prize used a domestic motorcycle, it would look a bit stingy no matter how you looked at it.

So after discussing it, they decided to import them, and asked many young people in the factory what kind of motorcycles they liked.

In the end, the Suzuki King stood out, but the price was indeed very beautiful, and there was no need to think about negotiating discounts with the Japanese.

Moreover, after importing, the various taxes were not a small amount. For example, the Santana—even if someone won it, the tax wasn't something an ordinary person could afford.

Therefore, after discussion, the taxes for the first and second prizes were all borne by Xurishi. Since they were doing an event, they would thoroughly benefit the consumers.

Guan Yunmei snatched the paperwork and looked at it carefully: "Did you really win it? How come I haven't heard of any lottery drawing there?"

Jian Yue said with a grin: "I won it by drinking Very Cola."

Guan Yunmei suddenly realized. Only then did she remember that at her workplace, at noon, many people were holding Very Cola bottle caps and clutching newspapers to check the numbers.

At the time, she even said that this was just a corporate sales tactic, all lies. How could they easily let you win, let alone cars and motorcycles? Keep dreaming.

She said this at noon, but didn't expect her own daughter to say she won a motorcycle in the evening. It was just that she still didn't quite believe it in her heart.

"A 20,000 to 30,000 yuan motorcycle, they really gave it to you?"

Jian Yue pointed out the window: "It's parked downstairs. Here are the keys, if you don't believe me, go look."

Guan Yunmei didn't go to look. At this point, she still chose to believe her daughter, and she was also very excited inside.

"Daughter, look, you don't come home often, and your dad and I don't know how to ride a motorcycle. Let's sell it, and I'll save the money for your dowry."

30,000 yuan was not a small amount of money for their family.

"Not selling!" Jian Yue rolled her eyes and turned to leave the kitchen.

"Hey!" Guan Yunmei chased after her, "You child, you don't come home often, are you going to let the motorcycle sit downstairs and gather dust?"

"Anyway, I'm not selling."

Jian Yue lay back on the sofa and turned on the TV with the remote control.

"Also, I bought a case of Very Cola, and I didn't just win this one motorcycle. There's also a refrigerator, two electric fans, and a bicycle."

"You won that many?"

Guan Yunmei sat down beside her daughter, the smile on her face as bright as the noon sun.

"Where's the refrigerator? Hasn't it been delivered yet? I've long wanted to replace our family's broken refrigerator." ===== CHAPTER 964 =====
