After everyone had left, Lin Mo took out his phone and found the WeChat of the owner of the lottery shop he used to frequent, then dialed the number.

Beep…

Beep beep…

The call was quickly answered.

“Hello.”

The shop owner was a middle-aged man around 40, surnamed Xu, but his full name was unknown.

Lin Mo said with a smile, “Xu, could you place a bet for me later? It’s 5000 yuan. Tonight’s World Cup Qualifiers, our Huaxia Team is going to lose.”

“Wow, you’re playing big this time. But it’s a sure bet. Transfer the money over, and I’ll place the bet for you later.”

Lin Mo didn’t hang up and tentatively asked, “By the way, Xu, I heard something today. Someone’s buying lottery tickets at the original price? What’s the deal with that?”

He hadn’t intended to ask the other party to place a bet for him; the 5000 yuan was just a way to improve their rapport.

What Lin Mo really wanted to know was what the deal was with buying lottery tickets at the original price.

As a lottery shop owner who had been in the business for many years, Xu might know the situation.

“Eh, there’s nothing new about that. If you really win, I can buy it at full price too,” the shop owner said nonchalantly, not at all surprised, “Some people’s money needs laundering, so, you know.”

Lin Mo laughed and said, “Haha, if 1 win, I’ll sell it to you. I’ve got to hang up now; I’m still busy.”

Beep… beep beep…

After the call ended, Lin Mo had more or less figured out the logic behind it.

lie had had his suspicions before.

Often, what is common knowledge to insiders is totally inaccessible to outsiders.

Some big bosses give gifts, and giving cash directly is certainly not convenient, but giving a winning lottery ticket, that should be fine, right?

Of course, there might be deeper schemes that Lin Mo didn’t understand.

For now, Lin Mo didn’t want to understand.

As for whether to sell the ticket at the original price to Manager Wang, Lin Mo still had to think it over.

After all, this was clearly an improper practice!

After waiting a bit longer, the Wuling Mini stopped in front of the store.

Lin Mo stepped out to greet them and opened the passenger door, where Lin Xiaoxiao quickly dashed out.

“Daddy, are we going to live here from now on?”

Lin Mo gently picked her up and said with a smile, “If you like, we could also live here!”

After all, they were just renting, so it didn’t matter where they rented.

And if they lived here, even if Lin Xiaoxiao had to get up at 7am, it wouldn’t be a big deal.

Li Jinwen also chimed in, “Should I look for a house around here tomorrow? Although the rent might be quite expensive.”

Look for a house?

Lin Mo chuckled to himself.

Your husband is about to make more than ten million, why rent a house?

“No rush, let’s wait a bit longer. Finish up things over these next few days,” Lin Mo teased, “Who knows, by then we might not need to rent, we could just buy a place outright!”

“How could that be possible, unless we win the first prize,” Li Jinwen also laughed, not taking it seriously.

The family entered the store, chatting and laughing.

Li Jinwen took out her phone, pointed at a spot and said, “Husband, stand over here holding Xiaoxiao!”

“What’s up?” Lin Mo asked, holding his daughter and standing in the area his wife had designated.

“Let’s take a photo to commemorate, this is our first store!”

After finding the right angle, Li Jinwen pressed the shutter button targeting the three of them.

Click—

A warm picture appeared before their eyes.

After that,

Li Jinwen had Lin Mo take several pictures of her, some gazing from the doorway, some holding Lin Xiaoxiao, and some posing with the business license.

It was clear she probably wanted to post on social media that evening.

Not to show off, but mainly to let her family know that the husband she chose was not bad at all.

Especially since her parents were about to come to Rakshasa City, Li Jinwen wanted even more to change their opinion of her husband.

After taking the photos, Lin Mo pointed to one where Li Jinwen was holding the business license and said, “Wife, send me this photo, 1 need it!”

“What are you going to do with it?” Li Jinwen asked, puzzled.

“You get to pose, but I don’t get to flaunt a little?”

Lin Mo took his wife’s phone and sent the photo to himself via WeChat, then immediately forwarded it to the class group chat.

“[Fellow classmates, the new store is open. If you ever want to buy lottery tickets, come to me, who knows, the next millionaire could be you!]”

As soon as the message was sent out, the group chat immediately became lively.

“[Damn, are you serious?]”

“[Huh???????]”

“[You really won a ten-million lottery? You opened a store?]”

“[We agreed to be poor together, but you secretly became a boss behind my back?]”

”[BS, right?]”

“[Li Jinwen still looks so beautiful! ]”

“[Heh, you’re making it look more and more believable. So looking forward to your and Zhang’s animation company going public one day!]”

“[Just a lottery shop costs a few bucks. If I had ten million, I definitely wouldn’t do this!]”

“[Oh, so when you said you won the lottery before, it was just to trick everyone into buying tickets from you?]”

“[Lin, when you talked about investing in someone’s business, you weren’t referring to investing in a lottery ticket, were you?]”

“[Haha, truth revealed!]”

There were all sorts of comments in the group, but Zhang Yihua seemed to be busy and didn’t reply in the group chat.

Li Jinwen also glanced at Lin Mo’s phone and, after seeing that it was the class group chat, said speechlessly, “Husband, aren’t you being childish? You could just leave that kind of group.”

“I’ll leave it in a couple of days,” Lin Mo replied with a teasing smile, then changed the subject and asked, “What shall we eat tonight?”

“I think we need to celebrate properly!”

“Anything is fine by me, it depends on what you and Xiaoxiao want to eat!” Li Jinwen thought for a moment and then added, “Right, husband, what should we do about the store’s renovation? Should all the existing decorations be torn down?”

“Have you forgotten what I used to do? I’ll call the boss later and tell him to get a couple of guys to help us take it down tomorrow,” Lin Mo said, looking at his daughter and asking, “Xiaoxiao, what do you want to eat tonight?”

Lin Xiaoxiao answered decisively, “I want barbecue!”

“What barbecue for a little kid? It’s not good for your health!” Li Jinwen was not too keen on the idea.

“Come on, let’s just go with what our daughter wants today, we haven’t had barbecue in a long time,” Lin Mo said as he carried his daughter and led his wife out, “I know a barbecue place that’s pretty good. I’ve been wanting to take you guys there.”

By the time Lin Mo and his family reached the barbecue stall, it was already past 7 p.m.

The weather had turned cool, but there was no shortage of people eating barbecue.

What was more interesting was that right in front of the barbecue stall there was a huge projection TV, which was broadcasting live the Huaxia Team versus the Kore Country Team game.

The game hadn’t started yet; it was still showing scenes of the spectators and the players warming up.

The site was crowded with fans too, most of them wearing Huaxia Team jerseys, creating a sea of red.

The only downside,

among this vast red ocean, there were a few people wearing white jerseys with AIA written on the front and the name SON on the back, underneath a large number ’7′.

SON is the full name of Son Heung-Min, a player from Kore Country.

“Wearing the opponent’s shirt to our country’s game?” Li Jinwen frowned upon seeing those white jerseys.

Huh?

Lin Mo didn’t even know what the white jerseys represented and asked with surprise, “You know about this?”

“Hmph, it’s all thanks to your father-in-law,” Li Jinwen said, her eyebrows slightly furrowing, “When I was little, he loved to bet on soccer games. Sometimes he even invited a bunch of colleagues to watch games at our house. There’s nothing wrong with liking soccer, but each time he would get drunk and lose money, then he would argue with my mom, and they fought terribly.”

“Oh right… I forgot about that,” Lin Mo replied.

Not wanting his wife to dwell on unpleasant memories, Lin Mo quickly asked, “So, should we change to another place?”

“Why switch?” Li Jinwen started to order by scanning a QR code and said with a smile, “It’s all in the past. My dad has quit long ago, and now, although he occasionally buys a little, it’s just for fun. And tonight seems to be a World Cup qualifier; it’s probably the same no matter which place we go to.”

“Alright then, let’s enjoy the game and chow down on skewers!”

Lin Mo’s gaze shifted to the projected TV. Although he was already aware of the night’s programming, he was genuinely looking forward to watching the game..
