Chapter 213 Blocking the Knife
"Come and play."
Cen Xihuai put the scraper in Xu Qingwu's hand.
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Xu Qingwu took the scraper and started scraping.
The first one didn’t win.
The second one didn’t win.
The third one didn’t win.
As expected, her bad luck would never get better. After failing to win three consecutive jackpots, Xu Qingwu began to feel discouraged.
Cen Xihuai took the one that didn't win and replaced it with a new one for her: "Continue."
Xu Qingwu looked at him: "Do you really want to continue?"
Cen Xihuai nodded.
So Xu Qingwu had to continue scratching the lottery tickets, but he still didn't win a prize after scratching one.
Cen Xihuai was a little confused. Logically, the winning rate of a complete scratch-off lottery ticket should be more than 60%.
Even if there is no jackpot, at least you can win some small denomination. It is rare for someone like Xu Qingwu to not win a prize even after scratching four tickets.
Xu Qingwu put the scratch-off ticket in his hand and said, "This scratch-off ticket book can't be fake, right? Try scratching one."
Cen Xihuai put the tickets that didn’t win a prize aside and scratched another one in order, which won one thousand yuan.
Cen Xihuai: "..."
Xu Qingwu: "..."
Xu Qingwu almost laughed out of anger: "See, I told you I have bad luck, but you still don't believe me."
Cen Xihuai disagreed with this statement: "But if you had continued just now, the winner would have been you."
"I've never won even a third-place prize since I was a child. Every year, the law firm holds an annual meeting, and I always win the Sunshine Award."
Cen Xihuai was puzzled: "Isn't this also winning the Sunshine Award?"
Xu Qingwu's face drooped. "Guess why this award is called 'Sunshine'? All employees who didn't win can receive a Sunshine Award. Prizes like electronic scales and kettles..."
Cen Xihuai couldn't help but laugh: "It's quite practical."
Xu Qingwu's shoulders drooped, she had already accepted her luck.
She was born with bad luck.
Cen Xihuai didn't like her dejected look, so he patted her head and comforted her: "Okay, keep shaving. It's all profit if you shave it at zero cost."
Anyway, Xu Yanli donated 10,000 yuan, which is enough for us to have fun.
So the two of them continued, and Xu Qingwu continued to do the dirty work.
"Sister-in-law, something's wrong with you. Why are you so unlucky?"
Xie Ying's mocking voice was heard from behind. Xu Qingwu turned around and saw Xie Ying dressed in fancy clothes and holding a stack of scratch-off tickets in his hand. It seemed that he had also received a task from Xu Yanli to come here to show his support.
The person who had finally been coaxed became dejected again. Cen Xihuai kicked Xie Ying angrily and said, "If you can't speak, shut up."
Xie Ying muttered, "You won't let me tell the truth. You really think you're a boss, don't you?"
Xu Qingwu couldn't help but laugh. After knowing him for a long time, she really felt that Xie Ying was a funny guy.
Xie Ying scratched two tickets and won two hundred in a row, and the third ticket won five hundred directly.
Hearing his "wow" sounds getting louder and louder, Xu Qingwu couldn't laugh anymore. It was really weird.
Is it true that being rich is something you're destined to have? Does money automatically flow to the rich, and the poor get poorer while the rich get richer?
Xie Ying was still screaming and shouting, but Cen Xihuai kicked him again and forced him to turn off his microphone.
Jiang You was making coffee at first, but when he heard the noise, he saw Xie Ying coming over. She brought him a cup of coffee.
"Thank you, Master."
Xie Ying took it and put it on the table, then smiled at her friendlyly: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Jiang You was too lazy to bother with his name and asked him, "Why are you here?"
"Xu..."
Xie Ying almost spoke too quickly, but was kicked by Cen Xihuai before he reacted: "I was just passing by and came over to try my luck."
Jiang You's smile turned cold: "Mr. Xie spent five or six figures in one night, and he still needs a scratch-off lottery ticket?"
Xie Ying avoided her gaze somewhat unnaturally: "Hehe, just for fun."
Since they were already here, Jiang You had no reason to turn them away. He politely said, "Thank you, young master, have fun."
As soon as Jiang You left, Xie Ying felt like he was sweating in the middle of winter.
Two teams were scratching tickets when Chi Chu arrived late. She asked the salesperson at the counter to take a few of each type of scratch-off ticket, including one worth 20,000 yuan.
Xie Ying heard Chi Chu's voice, threw away the scratch-off lottery ticket in his hand and came over: "Damn, Lao Chi, why did you buy 20,000?"
Chi Chu didn't bother to pay attention to him: "Do you have any objections?"
Xie Ying: "No, did Xu Yanli give you 20,000? We are all brothers, why does he treat you differently?"
Seeing Jiang You coming over, Chi Chu kicked him and said, "Shut up."
Xie Ying was furious. Was he a ball today? How could anyone who passed by kick him?
"Why did you kick me?!"
"You should."
Jiang You walked over and smiled business-like: "Boss Chi, why are you here too?"
As soon as he saw Jiang You, Xie Ying quickly slipped back to continue scratching the lottery tickets. He was really afraid of being exposed and getting kicked by Xu Yanli again.
Chi Chu's expression remained indifferent: "Xiaoxiao likes scratch-off tickets, so I'll buy some for her to play with while I'm passing by."
As they were talking, the salesperson had already packed 20,000 yuan worth of scratch-off tickets for him. Chi Chu took the bag and said goodbye to Jiang You.
Jiang You thanked him and sent him away.
It was she who invited Xu Qingwu and Cen Xihuai to come, but Xie Ying and Chi Chu showed up one after another. If she didn't know who was behind this, she would be a fool.
Jiang You removed Xu Yanli from the blacklist, transferred 60,000 yuan to him, and then continued to blacklist him.
Xu Yanli had been forbidden by Jiang You to approach her before, and was now in the coffee shop next to the lottery shop.
When he received Jiang You's message, he thought he was dazzled.
When I replied to Jiang You's message, I found out that she had blocked me again.
This cruel woman really didn't give him any hope at all.
Seeing the money she transferred, she probably knew that he gave money to a few brothers to show up for the event, but he gave out 30,000 and received 60,000.
If I give him an extra 30,000, I'll have a chance to find her.
Xu Yanli walked out of the coffee shop happily and went to Jiang You's lottery shop.
When he was about to reach the door, he saw Jiang You being pulled by a man with dreadlocks.
Jiang You pushed the man away in disgust and walked into the lottery shop.
Unexpectedly, the man took out a knife from his pocket and stabbed Jiang You, who was completely unaware of the situation.
Xu Yanli's mind went blank, and he even forgot to take the man's knife. Instead, he rushed towards Jiang You and subconsciously used his body to block the knife for her.
Blood dripped down the knife, and passers-by screamed.
Jiang You turned her head and saw Xu Yanli's face covered in cold sweat, and she forced a smile at her.
"Xu Yanli!"
Jiang You exclaimed, alarming everyone in the store.
When Xie Ying, Cen Xihuai and Xu Qingwu came out, they saw Xu Yanli lying on the ground with a knife stuck in his body and blood all over the floor.
Cen Xihuai and Xie Ying looked at each other, Cen Xihuai called 120, and Xie Ying called the police.
Xu Yanli was still pretending to be fine, and spoke to Jiang You with a pale face: "You transferred too much money..., hiss... Pull me off the blacklist and return it to you..."
Jiang You glared at him angrily: "Shut up, idiot."
Xu Yanli felt wronged: "I saved you, why are you still cursing..."
