Chapter 16

Because Lin Yi had won the event, the store owner prepared to give him a reward.

Pointing to a liquid crystal television, the store owner said to Lin Yi, "This is our store's latest model, worth over a thousand dollars. It's yours!"

Lin Yi glanced at the television and then said, "It's indeed very nice, but I don't have any use for a television."

He was currently filming a show and wouldn't need a television. Even when he returned home, he wouldn't need one since his villa wouldn't be lacking such a device.

The store owner scratched his head. "But our prize is this..."

Then, an idea struck him. "How about this? I'll give you a lottery ticket instead. This is a ticket I bought a few days ago and haven't redeemed yet. You can take it and redeem it; whether you win or lose, we'll accept the outcome. How about that?"

With a lottery ticket, there was a chance of winning nothing, or possibly a multi-million-dollar prize-it was unpredictable.

It was all about the thrill.

Lin Yi found this interesting and took the lottery ticket, turning it in his hand. He smiled and said, "Sure, deal."

Thus, the group followed Lin Yi to a nearby lottery redemption center.

"Generally speaking, the odds of winning a lottery are low."

"People who have never won anything pass by silently."

"Who knows how Lin Yi's ticket will fare? Maybe a few hundred dollars at most?"

Soon, they arrived at the redemption center.

Lin Yi handed the ticket to the staff member. "Could you check this, please?"

The staff member quickly smiled and said, "Congratulations! You've won ten thousand dollars!"

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow.

Wow!

The other guests widened their eyes in disbelief.

Did he really win?!

What incredible luck?

"My God, witnessing a big moment-ten thousand dollars!!"

"Lin Yi's luck is truly off the charts, trading a thousand-dollar TV for a ten-thousand-dollar lottery ticket."

"Rubbing Lin Yi's luck!"

"Lin Yi's luck is like a blessing from above!!"

Lin Yi, always casual and generous, looked at the lottery ticket in his hand and immediately said to the other guests, "Tonight, dinner's on me. Eat as much as you want, no need to hold back!"

Shen Feng, finally recovering from his shock, said, "Whoever holds back is a fool. I'm going to eat until I'm stuffed!"

Zhao Jin and Zhou Ke also expressed their intention to enjoy the feast tonight.

Only He Nian couldn't hide his discomfort.

He never expected things to turn out this way. Initially, he wanted Lin Yi to highlight him, but in the end, Lin Yi was the one shining brightly, while he ended up shooting himself in the foot.

Soon, with mixed thoughts, they headed to a nearby barbecue restaurant.

The barbecue restaurant was located under a residential building and usually served the local residents, creating a lively atmosphere.

Lin Yi and the others could smell the barbecue from afar.

As they got closer, everyone's appetite was further whetted.
