Chapter 99: The Grand Prize
After she said the word ‘car,’ it seemed as if a mute b.u.t.ton had been pressed.
Two seconds later, the scene came back to life.
“Car?!”
“Have I heard that right?! Grand prize?!”
“No way?!”
“I’m still waiting to draw the prize! Is the car really won already?”
The voices from the crowd of onlookers grew louder, their restless emotions starting to spread.
The staff immediately leaned towards them, saying, “I need to have a look at it first.”
After reading the words clearly, the staff member was also shocked.
It really was the grand prize! What kind of luck was this!
After the onlookers exclaimed in shock, they started to gather towards them. “Let me see! Let me see!”
After seeing the words clearly, everyone’s expressions turned very complicated.
Excitement, envy, disappointment... These emotions were mixed together, turning everyone almost mad.
That was the grand prize!
“You’re so lucky, girl! It is really the grand prize!”
“Oh no, my car! I’m still waiting for my turn to draw!”
“I’m so envious!”
“Girl, your luck is exceptional!”
“Girl, do you have a driver’s license? Are you still a student? You’re so lucky!”
Such good luck...
That was what everyone was thinking.
Everyone was extremely envious. Who wouldn’t want to win the jackpot?
But the lucky ones amongst them would, at most, win things like an electric kettle. That was nothing compared to a car!
“Beibei, you won the grand prize!”
Song Jiaren came back to her senses after the initial shock, immediately embracing Xia Xibei and bouncing with joy.
“You’re so lucky! That’s a car!”
Of course, Song Jiaren’s family had a car at home, but it was entirely different when the car was won through a prize draw!
Seeing Xia Xibei win the prize, Song Jiaren was very excited, almost as if she was the one winning it.
“Quick! We want to redeem the prize!”
After the excitement, Song Jiaren immediately turned to the staff and asked them to redeem the prize.
“Please wait!” After the staff regained his senses, he immediately jumped to action, “I have to report to the manager first!”
After he finished speaking, he ran away.
The people around them were still very excited.
Although they were not the ones who had won the prize, the prize was still drawn right before their eyes, and the meaning was very different.
“It’s great! it’s so great!” Song Jiaren was still very excited, bouncing around. “If I had luck like yours, that would be great!”
In response, Xia Xibei smiled without saying a single word.
After a while, the staff hurried over with a middle-aged man.
The man was out of breath from running, and before he could even catch his breath, he s.n.a.t.c.hed the piece of paper right out of Xia Xibei’s hand.
He was very agitated, using a great deal of force.
If Xia Xibei had not let go of the paper fast enough, the paper might have been torn apart.
After reading the words written on top, his breath stopped for a second. “Did... Did you really draw this?”
When these words came out, Song Jiaren became a little angry.
“What do you mean by that? If we didn’t draw this, could we have faked it? With so many people here, how could we have done that?!”
The onlookers around them also gave their support.
“We’ve all witnessed it!”
“This little girl has drawn the prize!”
“If it doesn’t count, then will I be able to draw it?”
“In your dreams!”
The heckling by everyone around them made the man’s face turn a little pale, cold sweat dripping down from his forehead.
The corners of his mouth twitched and quickly explained, “Sorry, I didn’t mean that. I was just so surprised. My name is Tao.”
Xia Xibei smiled, “It’s okay, you just need to verify it.”
Manager Tao’s complexion turned blue, his smile a little bitter. After careful inspection, he nodded unwillingly, “It is indeed the grand prize.”
