The girls laughed until their stomachs hurt.

Jiang Xiaoli was more pragmatic. She asked, "I remember something like this. My mom's factory also gave out lottery tickets like that. Could it be that the lottery tickets from the factory you were running were problematic?"

Zhong Yuan snapped his fingers. "We thought about that too! But it really wasn't the case!"

Dafu continued, "After Zong Ge scratched lottery tickets for two days, we felt something was off, so we tried to figure out what was going on. Turns out, someone else had already brought home a huge refrigerator!"

After they sold off the pile of items they had previously exchanged at a low price, Zong Jia's legs had recovered enough to allow him to go back to collecting lottery tickets, with the others assisting him.

In less than a week, they had saved enough money to buy a big TV!

Ren Zhiyi was more objective, saying, "You think Zong Jia was unlucky with the lottery tickets, but it's also possible that the people who buy the lottery tickets were unlucky."

“Exactly!” Jiang Xiaoli immediately chimed in.

"Hahaha!" Zhong Yuan laughed so hard he could barely breathe. "You think Brother Zong hasn't debated with us using this viewpoint?"

Zong Jia sighed helplessly, "Later we tried it in many places, but I really didn't have that luck."

Dafu laughed and said, "If you don't believe me, you can try it. Ask the waiter for a spare set of dice, and you can shake the dice with Brother Zong and see who has the higher score."

Yan Chengcheng stood up. "I'll go ask for it. I don't believe there's such a strange thing."

Yan Chengcheng quickly returned with two sets of dice and a dice cup. She gave one set to Zong Jia, and each of them had three dice.

"I don't know any other ways to play, so let's just compare sizes."

Zong Jia was extremely helpless, but seeing his wife's expectant eyes, he nodded, "Okay."

In the first round, Zong Jia faced off against Yan Chengcheng, scoring 6 points against 11 points, and lost.

In the second round, Zong Jia faced off against Chang Yue, scoring 9 points against 15 points, and lost.

...

In the sixth round, Zong Jia faced off against Zhong Yuan, scoring 3 points against 5 points, and lost.

A hush fell over the private room. Hu Jingxin muttered under her breath, "This is too eerie!"

Zhong Yuan glanced at Jiang Xiaoli and said, "Xiaoli, you haven't shaken it yet. Why don't you two try to see who's better?"

Jiang Xiaoli was completely stunned!

She touched her nose and sat down in front of Zong Jiayu. "One more time?"

Zong Jiayu smiled and nodded, "Come on."

They shook the dice cup and placed it on the table.

Yan Chengcheng grabbed Chang Yue's hand, "You've made me so nervous!"

Zhong Yuan urged, "You two, hurry up and start!"

Jiang Xiaoli raised her chin. "You go first!"

Zong Jia obediently lifted the lid of the dice cup, revealing 2, 2, 1, for a total of 5.

She chuckled softly, "Winning by 5 points should be easy, right?"

She casually lifted the lid, then was dumbfounded: 1 point, 2 points, 1 point, a total of 4 points.

The onlookers gasped in surprise, and Zhong Yuan couldn't help but exclaim, "My goodness!"

Zong Jia was a little surprised. "Little Pear, I really haven't beaten many people."

Jiang Xiaoli rubbed her forehead. "I'm starting to really suspect that Brother Le has put a curse on those unlucky guys."

Ren Zhiyi frowned and said, "There's another possibility."

"What?" Yan Chengcheng asked.

Jiang Xiaoli answered for her, "There's another possibility: Ayu is a master at rolling dice and can tell the numbers people roll. He deliberately rolled a number that's bigger or smaller."

"ah?"

Zong Jia chuckled lightly, "You all think too highly of me."

Ren Zhiyi nodded. "Indeed, there's no need for that."

After the game ended, everyone returned to their seats to chat and eat, but Jiang Xiaoli kept the incident in mind.

When she left "Master Jiang", she took two sets of dice and a dice cup with her.

When she got home, she didn't believe in bad luck and shook Zong Jiayu repeatedly, but she still didn't lose every time.

Well, she won twice out of more than 30 games.

That night, Jiang Xiaoli lay on the bed, feeling utterly hopeless. Zong Jiayu massaged her head, saying, "We don't rely on this for a living, so there's no need to worry about it."

She sighed softly, "After watching Chow Yun-fat's movies, I even fantasized about the scenes in the movies. Tsk tsk, with our incredible luck, we're destined to be money-giving babies!"

Zong Jia laughed, shaking his body. "Little Pear, it's good that we don't have such unrealistic dreams of getting rich."

She rolled over onto her side and said, "We've played mahjong before, and we've never been this unlucky. I think we need to play something with more skill involved. This kind of game that relies entirely on luck, NO NO NO!"

He pulled her into his arms and chuckled, "Perhaps all our good luck was used up to meet each other."

Jiang Xiaoli snuggled closer to him, adjusting herself to a more comfortable position. "My beloved concubine is right!"

She slept soundly through the night without any dreams, and waking up in the afternoon did not affect her good sleep.

The next morning at breakfast, Xiao Jincheng came to her door and waited for her, "Little Pear, you're not sleeping in or going out today, are you?"

She swallowed the steamed dumpling in her mouth and asked, "I'm not going out, I'm not going out, Uncle Xiao, what's wrong?"

Xiao Jincheng sat down opposite her. "It's still about the leasing of the 'Jinghua Center'!"

Jiang Xiaoli was a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry, Uncle Xiao, I couldn't join you for the social gathering after the wedding."

"Hey! It happened so suddenly, how could I possibly hold a grudge against you over this?"

Xiao Jincheng took a sip of soy milk and continued, "However, the results of my own negotiations with them were not very good. I have reached agreements with a few companies, but I think there are a few more companies that would have a very high chance of success if you were to step in."
