Chapter 371: Before and After Receiving the Award
"Haha!" Louisa laughed, "even if you say it's more important than me, I won't be angry, Tom." ”
She started the car, pressed her hands on the steering wheel, and stepped on the accelerator, only to turn the car instead, and she was as excited as Tom to take the steering wheel.
"Hey, baby. Tom yelled, "Stop, you've hit the wall." ”
Luisa slammed on the brakes, but stepped on the accelerator and the car crashed into the wall. Fortunately, the distance between the car and the wall is relatively close, and when it hits the wall, the car breaks down, but the person is fine.
"What should I do? I can't drive a car. Louisa said anxiously.
"Baby, it's not like you can't drive, you almost didn't kill the two of us. Tom corrected her, "If it's broken, it's broken, let's get a ride." ”
"No, don't get a ride, call Lucy over and give us a ride. Luisa busily said.
"Lucy, would she like it?" asked Tom, confused.
Luisa affirmed, "Yes, don't worry, Tom." After a pause, he said: "But before that, it's best not to tell Lucy about winning the lottery, otherwise I'm afraid she won't be able to drive." ”
As he spoke, he took out his phone and went to call Lucy. Lucy was at work and received a call from Luisa, "Hey, Luisa, are you feeling better?"
"I'm much better. Luisa said, and then urged loudly, "Come back, Lucy." ”
"Come back?" said Lucy, "I'm at work." ”
Luisa said, "I have an urgent matter and need your help. ”
"Can't you find someone else?" asked Lucy casually. Seeing that Luisa didn't say anything else, she said, "Okay, but I'm going to take a leave of absence first." ”
"Hurry up, I'll wait for you at home. Luisa urged again.
"What's going on, so anxious?" Lucy asked, but didn't get an answer from Luisa, took off her phone and looked at it, found that Luisa had hung up, and muttered in a low voice, "This Luisa." ”
She got up from where she worked. Go out and ask for leave. I'm done taking a leave of absence. So he drove to Louisa's house. On the way, she received several phone calls, all of which were from Luisa, urging her to hurry over.
Lucy muttered more and more to herself. Can't guess what's going on.
By the time she arrived at Louisa's house. Louisa and Tom were still sitting in the car. Saw the front of the car hit the wall. Lucy was shocked by a hole in the wall and the front of the car collapsed. "Oh my God, you guys...... You've had a car accident. ”
Luisa said, "Don't make a fuss, Lucy, we're fine. ”
Lucy said: "The front of the car crashed into it, and she said it was okay." ”
Luisa said: "There's something wrong with the front of the car, we're fine." As he spoke, he got out of the car, and Tom got out of the car as well.
Lucy looked at the two of them, and sure enough, they didn't look like they were in trouble, and said strangely: "Since it's okay, what are you calling me back?"
Luisa said, "Don't say naughty things, Lucy, if you want to call the police, Tom and I will call the police a long time ago." As he spoke, he walked over to Lucy's car, pulled the door open and got inside, then turned around and urged, "Hurry up, Lucy, take us to South 13th Street." ”
Tom followed in and sat down, next to Luisa.
Lucy had no choice but to follow, and said in confusion: "Luisa, you asked me to come back just so that I could take you to South 13th Street? ”
Luisa smiled mysteriously, "Go ahead, Lucy, I promise you won't regret it." ”
Lucy said: "I regret it now, it turns out that you called me back just so that I could be your driver." The car broke down, and you didn't even get a ride. ”
Luisa smiled, "Dear Lucy, drive quickly, I promise you won't regret it." But before you do that, you'd better think about what you need, because Tom and I are going to give you the same gift. ”
Lucy wondered, "Give me a gift, why, you're getting married?"
Tom shook his head at her, and Luisa continued, "That's right, we won't give you a gift when we get married." Once again, when you're on the road, you'd better think about what you need?"
Lucy looked at Tom and then at Louisa, and wondered, "Why do I think you two look weird?"
"Haha, you guessed it, we're weird, but I'm not going to tell you why. Luisa smiled and said, "Lucy, you better drive first, think while driving." ”
Lucy said, "Then I have to think about what I need, Chanel lipstick, or Dior perfume?" said as she opened the door, sat down in her seat, started the car, and drove towards the city.
Luisa was still immersed in the joy of winning the lottery, and her heart was still excited, reminding: "If your choice is just that, you will regret it, Lucy." ”
When Lucy heard this, she couldn't help but glance back at the two of them, "How do you feel as if you two are rich? Don't tell me that you have a rich relative who died and left you a large inheritance." Luisa has no such relative, I know. Could this relative be yours? ”
Tom laughed and said, "I don't have any relatives like that, Lucy. ”
Luisa said, "Don't guess, Lucy, with that kung fu, you might as well think about what you need." ”
Lucy said, "Why don't you remind me? Luisa, what is the value of your gift?"
Luisa said proudly: "You can try to think about the good, such as ......" Luisa groaned, looking out of the car window, just in time to see a truck passing by on the side of the road, there was a billboard on the compartment of the truck, it was a bikini girl standing next to a sports car, she had an idea, "For example...... A roadster. ”
"Are you crazy?" Lucy couldn't help but cry out when she heard this.
The situation of the good sister, she is clear. Although every time they see a rich man in the city driving a luxury sports car, the two of them will be envious in their hearts, but they also know that with their work income, they will never be able to afford it, so at most they just look at it and envy it.
Luisa leaned forward, grabbed Lucy's chair, leaned over her cheek, and said, "Do you think I'm crazy?" ”
Lucy quickly turned her head. Look at her up close. After a moment's scrutiny, he said, "You don't look like you, but you're so excited today, Luisa." ”
"Really?" Luisa reached out and touched her cheek. I also feel that I am a little too excited. But there's just no way to control yourself.
Lucy thought for a moment. Asked again, "Luisa, is what you just said true?"
Luisa said deliberately, "Is it true?" Lucy. ”
Lucy listened to her rhetorical question, feeling a little embarrassed. But she still had expectations, and said, "It's about sports cars." ”
"Haha!" Luisa smiled mysteriously, but did not speak.
"What are you laughing at?" Lucy couldn't help but look back again when she heard her laugh, and saw that Tom was snickering, giving the same impression as Louisa, with a mysterious smile.
She was shocked, "Oh my God, you guys...... You're not going to be serious, are you? Are you really going to give me a sports car? How do you have that much money? You're robbing the bank?"
Several questions were asked in a row.
But Louisa said no, "Whether it's true or not, you'll know then, Lucy." ”
"If you don't say anything, I feel like I'm going to die of curiosity. Lucy couldn't help but get excited, and wanted Luisa to tell herself, pretending to be pitiful.
"Haha! Curious, people don't die. Luisa demolishes her mercilessly.
Lucy hurriedly said: "Curiosity will not kill people, but it will kill cats." ”
Luisa was unmoved, "Then you can be the cat." ”
"Tom. Seeing that she couldn't impress her good sister, Lucy went to ask Tom again.
Tom was much more honest, "Don't ask, Lucy, if I tell you, I'm afraid we won't be in the city." Don't ask me why, just think about my car. ”
"Your car?" Lucy asked, suddenly reacting, "Your car can't hit the wall because of this, right?"
Tom said, "It's Luisa, she's driving to the wall because of this problem, she thinks it's the road." I don't think you'd want to be like her, would you?"
Louisa said, "Tom, you are absolutely slanderous. I was going to drive to the left, but I ended up driving to the right. As for the wall, I definitely didn't think of it as a road. ”
"Well, I was wrong, Luisa. Tom hurriedly raised his hand in surrender.
Lucy listened to the conversation between the two and became even more curious, "Oh my God, what happy thing did you encounter to do such a crazy thing?"
Tom shook his head, and said the same thing as Luisa.
Lucy had to guess for herself, "It's not a bank robbery, it's not a big inheritance, did you win the lottery? No, I was shopping with Luisa yesterday, and she told me I didn't win." ”
Tom and Luisa looked at each other and smiled silently.
Lucy guessed several times, but she didn't feel right, and finally got discouraged, "Forget it, I'll know right away anyway." ”
Luisa said, "That's right, Lucy, you'll know when you get to the place anyway." ”
Lucy said, "I would have been happier if you had told me in advance." ”
How could Luisa tell her, "Haha! You better drive your car, tell you, we'll never get to the city." ”
Lucy didn't give up, and swore an oath, "I promise not to hit the car against the wall, Luisa." ”
"Haha!" Louisa smirked, "my dear sister, are you sarcastic about me, or are you assuring me?"
Lucy was stunned for a moment, and said busily: "It's just a guarantee, you think too much, Luisa." ”
Luisa pursed her lips, "Don't waste your time, Lucy, you can't ask anything until you get there." ”
Lucy said, "You've disappointed me, Luisa. ”
Luisa wasn't worried, "Yes, then your mind will change soon." ”
While arguing, the three of them went to the city.
Finally arrived at South 13th Street,This place,Fucai company is the headquarters of U City. Luisa instructed Lucy to drive the car to a stop near the Fucai company.
"Get off, get off. Louisa shouted. The three got out of the car.
"This is the Fucai company. Lucy cried out, suddenly remembering something, "Luisa, you lied to me, Tom he won the lottery." ”
"Haha, my good sister, if I don't lie to you, can you drive the car here?" Luisa said with a smile.
Lucy said, "No, I'm not talking about today, it's yesterday, yesterday you said Tom didn't win the lottery." ”
Luisa said, "Yesterday." Yesterday I was the same as you. I don't know. Tom, oh, you don't know how much of a bastard he is, he actually missed the draw in order to watch a football game. And then lied to me again. Said that only two numbers were won. ”
"Ah!" exclaimed Lucy. Immediately shift positions and join the queue of denunciators of Tom, "Then he's such a bastard." ”
"It's rare that you think the same way I do. Lucy. Luisa said.
Tom listened to his girlfriend and her best friend denouncing him together, and he could only smile helplessly, not daring to refute a word.
Lucy thought for a moment and asked, "Luisa, is the same ticket that the beggar sold to Tom that day in the park?"
"Isn't that the one?" said Luisa, "Tom put it in his wallet and forgot it existed." If it weren't for me, he would have thrown it in the trash. ”
Lucy didn't hear a word of the latter words, but after listening to the first one, she couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh my God, how could Tom's luck be so good? God is his relative? Otherwise, if any beggar sells him a lottery ticket, he can win the jackpot." ”
Luisa said, "Isn't it? I wonder how ordinary people can have such good luck." ”
Lucy remembered the scene in the park, the man who gave the lottery ticket to the homeless, and couldn't help but say, "That guy is really unlucky." ”
Luisa asked, "Do you mean the homeless Mike, or that guy?" she didn't know that the guy she was talking about was actually the same as the homeless man's name, also called Mike.
Lucy said, "It's that guy." ”
"yes, his luck is terrible. Luisa chimed in, "I hope he doesn't know that this ticket is the one he bought, and if he does, he will regret his death." ”
Lucy nodded and added, "If it were me, I would have regretted wanting to kill myself." ”
Luisa said: "Don't think about it, you definitely don't have this chance, because you never buy lottery tickets and you can't win." ”
Lucy thought for a moment, "Perhaps, I should try it later." ”
Luisa smiled: "Unless God is your relative, even if you buy it for a lifetime, you may not be able to win it once." ”
Lucy said seriously: "Don't talk about God, if you can let me win once, I would rather be related to the devil." ”
"Haha!" Luisa teased with a smile, "I'm afraid you're willing to be a lover with the devil." However, if you become the devil's lover, Jack will be jealous. ”
When Lucy heard this, she couldn't help laughing, thought about it, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "By the way, how many have you won? Is it the first prize, the second prize, or the third prize? Don't tell me the fourth prize, then there will be no money." ”
Luisa asked rhetorically, "Didn't you say that Tom and God are relatives, and since they are relatives of God, which do you think it would be?"
"Oh my God! it's the jackpot. Lucy cried out again, "You guys...... You guys...... It's really ......" incoherently, and finally I don't know what to say.
Luisa said, "Don't say it, let's go in and receive the award." As he spoke, he took out two sunglasses, gave one to Lucy and one to himself, and reminded, "Take it with you." ”
Tom also took out a pair of sunglasses to put on. All three are the first time to the fucai company to receive the award,It is also the first time to walk into the fucai company,Doing things is inevitably sneaky,lest others know.
They entered the fucai company,Immediately there was a welcome lady to greet them,Ask them what they need. Louisa whispered her purpose.
The welcome lady was taken aback, couldn't help but look at them more, and then led them to the next studio. Fucai company's privacy work is not bad,But to pay taxes,It is inevitable to be found by the media paparazzi.
So Tom, even if they wanted to hide themselves, they couldn't hide it.
Receiving the prize did not encounter any twists and turns,Entered the office,Take out your own lottery ticket,Fucai company staff check correct,Asked for a bank account,Issue a certificate,Transfer the past.
There are also IRS staff to tax them, tax deductions, Tom they came out of the Fucai Center.
As soon as I came out, I was surrounded by a group of media staff, photographers and inquirings, scrambling to ask if they had won the jackpot in this issue.
The three of them finally got mixed up, and in the end, Lucy didn't even dare to drive the car, for fear that these paparazzi would find out through the license plate number, so she took a taxi back.
Lucy's car was parked on the side of the road overnight and was eventually towed away by the traffic police and fined for it. Of course, these little things are no longer important to the young men and women who have won the jackpot and are on the rise.
The three of them returned to Tom's house that day, and the next day, a media staff member found out Tom's information and came to the door to interview Tom.
Despite Tom's repeated and unequivocal refusal to be interviewed, it was to no avail. These paparazzi still came to the door in an endless stream.
In this way, Tom's friends, relatives, neighbors, everyone knows that he has won the lottery.
Tom suddenly had countless relatives and friends, and these relatives and friends did not even have any impression of himself, and he did not know where they came from, and he was very annoyed.
Tom had to follow Luisa to Thermopyla, where she asked about the mad dog shelter.
Tom looked preoccupied and frowned, "Luisa, we can't use the winning money like this." ”
"Why?" Luisa wondered.
Tom said, "Have you forgotten where this ticket came from? ”
Luisa said, "How could I forget, wasn't it the one that the homeless man sold you that day in the park?"
"yes. Tom sighed, "This lottery ticket should belong to the bum, not mine, so I can't move around." (To be continued......)
