However, Li Jiayun's harsh words could not change her current miserable situation.
She stood alone outside the Gu family manor, her makeup was already smudged by tears, her hair was in disarray. She recalled her previous actions, her heart was filled with regret, but more of it was resentment towards Li Qiran.
"Why is Li Qiran so lucky? I don't accept it!" Li Jiayun gritted his teeth, his eyes revealing madness.
She took out her cell phone and tried to contact her so-called "friends", but all she received from the other end of the line was cold rejection and ridicule.
"Hmph, now that I'm down and out, you all turn against me!" Li Jiayun angrily threw his phone to the ground.
She had nothing at this moment, and a strong plan emerged in her mind. She covered her face, walked down the mountain, took a taxi and drove towards the car rental office.
At this time, a lottery was being held in the Gu Family Manor. "It must be me, it must be me." Li Qiran covered her number and closed her eyes to pray.
The lucky draw was going on intensely, with the host constantly stirring up the atmosphere on the stage.
"Okay, now let's reveal the final grand prize winner!" said the host excitedly.
The numbers on the big screen began to scroll rapidly, and everyone held their breath and stared at the screen closely.
Li Qiran's heart was in her throat, and she kept repeating, "It's me, it's me."
However, when the numbers finally froze, it was Lu Yunxuan's number that was displayed.
"Congratulations, Mr. Lu, for winning our grand prize, a courtyard house in the first ring of the imperial capital!" the host announced loudly.
Li Qiran opened her eyes and saw that it was not her number. She looked disappointed and said, "Oh, why isn't it me?"
Lin Yiping gently touched Li Qiran's head and said, "It's okay, Xiaoqi. Maybe it will be you next time."
"Ah~" Li Qiran sighed and thought, [I should have asked Lao Ba to check the winning numbers for me earlier, otherwise this courtyard would have been mine a long time ago. ]
After hearing her thoughts, everyone thought: ... Can we still play like this?
Lu Yunxuan ran onto the stage excitedly, took the key to the courtyard house from the host, a proud smile on his face.
Su Liyue walked over to Li Qiran and comforted her, "Don't be discouraged, there will be a lucky draw later."
[Then I'll have Lao Ba check the winning numbers carefully.]
After hearing this, everyone said: ...I will choose whichever one she chooses, it just depends on who has a faster hand speed.
Li Qiran's thoughts made everyone present have their own thoughts in mind.
Lao Ba jumped out and said, [No. 32, No. 56, No. 88, No. 109, that's all, hurry up, Xiao Qi! ]
Before Li Qiran could rush out, the numbers were snapped up by people around who had heard his thoughts.
[Why (???︿???), I lost all my awards. Really, the Gu family is so big, can’t they arrange more awards~] Li Qiran’s heart broke.
After hearing this, Gu Yuntian arranged for servants to arrange a few more prizes and made sure that Li Qiran would win one.
Lin Yiping looked at the unhappy Li Qiran and comforted her gently: "Xiao Qiran, don't be too sad. Their luck must have run out, and there might be a lucky draw later."
Li Qiran pouted and said, "Sister Yiping, I just feel so unlucky. It's so hard to get such a good opportunity."
Su Liyue smiled and said, "Don't worry, I believe you will have good luck in the future."
At this moment, a new round of lottery began.
The host said: "The prize for this round is a luxury sports car!"
The audience was boiling again, and everyone was looking forward to becoming the lucky winner.
Li Qiran clenched his fists: "My favorite sports car must be mine!"
However, after the numbers stopped rolling, she still wasn't the winner.
Li Qiran was petrified and said in despair: "Ah! Who is winning the prize?"
Gu Yuntian quickly asked someone to add a few more prizes, and quietly signaled to the host that Li Qiran must win a prize.
In the next few rounds of draws, Li Qiran was never favored by the goddess of luck.
She said dejectedly: "How come I didn't win any prize today? I'm so unlucky!"
Lin Yiping encouraged: "Don't think like that, Xiaoqi, maybe there is a surprise behind."
Finally, in another round of lottery, the host announced: "The grand prize for this round is a set of top-quality jewelry, and the winning number is 250!"
Li Qiran looked at the number 250 in her hand, [Screw you! I have so many jewels, the last thing I want is jewels, and who is 250! ]
Thinking of this, she threw the number in her hand to the ground. The number bounced and hit the face of Lu Yunxuan who had just come over to show off that he had won the Siheyuan.
Lu Yunxuan was hit in the face by the sudden number, and picked it up in confusion: "Hey, isn't this 250? I won the prize, who doesn't want it?"
"250 for you and 250 for your whole family." Li Qiran said unhappily.
Lin Yiping was inexplicably shot, and said with heartache: "Xiao Qi, I also have the blood of the Lu family. Am I 250?"
"No, no, Sister Yiping, it's not like that. I'm just too angry." Li Qiran waved her hands quickly.
Just as everyone was laughing at Li Qiran's words, Gu Shichen came over.
He looked at the depressed Li Qiran and said with a smile: "Don't be angry. If you don't like this jewelry, I will give you another gift."
Then she rolled her eyes and said, "Since you said so, I'll give you a gift too~"
"What (●.●)" Gu Shichen was puzzled. This girl had bad intentions.
Li Qiran pushed Su Liyue into Gu Shichen's arms in public: "I gave my sister to you~ You have to repay me well."
Gu Shichen hugged Su Liyue tightly, with a look of surprise and shyness on his face.
Su Liyue blushed and glared at Li Qiran in a reproachful manner: "Xiao Qi, you just like to make trouble."
Li Qiran said with a smile: "Hey, sister, don't be shy, this is a happy occasion for everyone."
Lin Yiping watched from the side and couldn't help laughing.
Gu Shichen gently let go of Su Liyue and said to Li Qiran, "You are such a clever girl. I have to thank you very much."
Li Qiran waved her hand: "Then you have to show some sincerity."
Everyone watched their interaction and whispered:
"I heard that the Gu and Su families were going to marry, but I didn't expect it to be true."
"That's right, look at Master Gu's appearance. He never had a woman by his side before."
"I just hugged this one!"
"The Su family is going to heaven!"
"Ah, after tonight, I don't know how many girls in the imperial capital who are obsessed with Master Gu will be heartbroken."
At this time, the host walked onto the stage again: "Next, there is another round of special draws, and the prize is a mysterious luxury cruise trip!"
Hearing about the prize, everyone became excited again.
Li Qiran rolled her eyes, "It's not like they're sending me on a cruise ship. Besides, I'm seasick, so I'll be vomiting all over the place after I get on board. I think they're targeting me!"
