Good Luck Time - Chapter 2

[chapter 2]

Not long after Tao Sizhi sat down, the lottery began.

After more than ten rounds of the small prize draw, Tao Sizhi’s numbers were not even touched.

However, since he was a child, he lacked the luck of winning the lottery, so he did not feel lost. He just stared at the screen and waited for new numbers to appear again and again.

The last prize of the annual meeting was a luxury brand car. With the order of the company’s CEO, the random numbers on the screen began to change and flash.

Tao Sizhi sat in his seat, stared at the screen, clenched his number plate, and suddenly couldn’t help but wonder if he should sell the car or take a driver’s license test if the jackpot was drawn to him.

The lottery process for the grand prize was extraordinarily long. When the turntable slowed down, Tao Sizhi finally figured out which car dealer platform to find to sell the car (his classmate took a job after graduating from college, and recently it often appears in advertisements before the opening of the movie). For a second, the number stopped at 89.

Tao Sizhi’s number: 647. Lost a little, he stuffed the lottery ticket into his pocket.

“Congratulations to my colleague No. 89,” the host wearing a white dress picked up the microphone beamingly, “Won the ultimate prize of the annual meeting!” The

chubby CEO beside her held a gift box with car keys.

The chase lights were chaotic in the dimly lit hall, and everyone craned their necks to see which lucky one had won the car.

There was a sudden noise from a certain round table in front, and then a person sitting at that table stood up.

The chase light found him, hit him, and walked with him to the steps of the stage. Tao Sizhi recognized Jiang Ge from a distance of dozens of meters.

“Who is that?” Li Xiao, who was sitting next to Tao Sizhi, whispered, “It’s so tall.”

Jiang Ge took the gift box from the CEO and shook hands with the CEO.

The host smiled and handed him another microphone, asking him to say a few words of blessing to the audience and pass on luck.

Jiang Ge faced the audience and said, “First of all, thank the company, my boss and colleagues for giving me the opportunity to attend the annual meeting.” Tao Sizhi heard Li Xiao’s sudden sigh: “He looks so handsome.”

“It’s okay . Come on,” Zhao Hao touched his face and said sourly, “I’m just lucky today, maybe I’ll be drawn next year.”

“He’s not lucky,” a middle-aged man at the same table joined in abruptly After discussing their topic, “You guys are too naive.” The

middle-aged man was Director Li of the Archives Department of the Logistics Department. His expression was mysterious and aroused the curiosity of the audience.

“What, what?” Zhao Hao approached Director Li.

Director Li shook his head, stared at the stage, and told the three juniors beside him: “This is the prince, and the award must be determined by default.”

Zhao Hao was shocked: “Prince?”

“His surname is Jiang.” Director Li is mysterious secretly hinted.

Tao Sizhi didn’t understand what he meant, but Li Xiao and Zhao Hao made a sudden realization.

“However…” Li Xiao suddenly questioned in a low voice, “The prizes are not predetermined, and the car is not very expensive.”

“I also think the company is not so stingy,” Zhao Hao echoed.

Director Li “tsk”: “It’s not about being stingy or not, but mainly to show a feeling that the prince is the real prince.”

Both Li Xiao and Zhao Hao were skeptical, but they didn’t refute, and a few people quieted down.

Tao Sizhi looked at the stage. He felt that he had some say in this topic, so he broke the silence and told everyone: “It shouldn’t be a default decision, his luck has always been very good. In the past, every time he drew cards in the game, he could draw The best card.”

“…” The

three of them looked at him together. After a while, Director Li opened his mouth and asked in a slightly strange tone, “How do you know? Do you know each other?”

“We are high school roommates,” Tao Sizhi told them.

The atmosphere suddenly froze.

No one spoke, Tao Sizhi could concentrate on watching the LED display on the live stage on the right side of the annual meeting stage. Jiang Ge was talking on the screen, and his voice came from the speakers.

Jiang Ge’s lips were open and closed, the knuckles of his hand holding the microphone bulged, he said a few more words, finished his thank you speech, returned the microphone to the host with a smile, and stepped down amidst the loud applause for some unknown reason.

At this time, Tao Sizhi naturally remembered the school’s orientation party in his second year of high school. Because Jiang Ge that night was the same as today, he easily won the special prize lottery that Tao Sizhi wanted so much (all the test papers of the previous year’s Mingde Middle School full-year general practice mock exam, which were handed over to famous teachers every Wednesday, and all There are five sets of thirty-nine books in total.

It’s just that Jiang Ge was not as polite as he is now. He reluctantly walked up to the stage, and immediately stepped down after receiving the ticket, completely forgetting the audience in the auditorium waiting for the lucky pass of the winner.

To be honest, Tao Sizhi felt very unfamiliar with Jiang Ge, who was now full of joy and anger, so after Jiang Ge stepped down, Tao Sizhi briefly recalled some events in high school.

We all know that time goes faster in memory. Tao Sizhi hadn’t thought about anything yet, and the annual meeting was over.

The end of the music sounded, and the people in the banquet hall stood up table by table, and swarmed to the door in groups. Tao Sishou and Zhao Hao walked out together, and were scattered by the crowd after a while.

Tao Sizhi was surrounded by people, and his arms and back were tight. The air was densely packed with different voices, Tao Sizhi felt anxious and fearful, and moved forward with the crowd.

After walking for a minute or two, the crowd finally dispersed, and he bumped into Jiang Ge.

Jiang Ge was carrying the bag of the annual meeting in his hand. Like Tao Sizhi, he was also alone. He first walked with Tao Sizhi in silence, and when he reached the hotel lobby, he asked Tao Sizhi, “Where are you going back?”

“The park,” Tao Sizhi said, “the dormitory.”

Jiang Ge then said, “I’m going back to the park too, I’ll take you back.”

Tao Sizhi stopped and said to Jiang Ge, “I’ll go back.”

But when he reached the hotel gate, Tao Sizhi found that it was raining outside.

It was pitch black outside, there was a very light rain, and the cold wind blew on his face and hands from the gap in the glass door, and he shuddered.

He was afraid of the cold, so he didn’t go out immediately. He stood beside the doorman and watched, and saw several sedans picking up the executives drive to the door and drive away, leaving watermarks on the tires. Jiang Ge has also been standing beside him, watching the outside with him.

“I’ll take you back.” After standing for a while, Jiang Ge said.

Tao Sizhi couldn’t conjure an umbrella out of thin air, and finally left with Jiang Ge.

When the car started, neither of them spoke.

Tao Sizhi felt a little uneasy. He didn’t know where to put his hand, so he couldn’t help but reach into his pocket. He grabbed the lottery ticket in his pocket with his left hand, and kept rubbing the sharp corner of the lottery ticket with the pulp of his index finger.

After driving on the ground and driving into the rain, Jiang Ge asked Tao Sizhi, “What are you doing?”

While driving, he put his right hand into Tao Sizhi’s pocket, grabbing Tao Sizhi’s fingertips and the blunt fingertips. He grabbed a corner of the lottery ticket, took it out of Tao Sizhi’s hand, looked down at it, suddenly smiled, and said, “What a pity, you didn’t win again.”

Tao Sizhi stared at Jiang Ge without speaking. Jiang Ge didn’t return the lottery ticket to him, looked at the road, was quiet for a while, and said to Tao Sizhi, “Tao Sizhi, can I give you the prize?”

Jiang Ge had no music in the car, and it was eerily quiet. Tao Sizhi said “No”, Jiang Ge seemed to have not heard, and said lightly: “You must have thought about how to deal with the prize.”

Tao Sizhi denied: “I don’t.”

However, Jiang Ge still seemed not to hear, and said: “You What are you going to do with it?”

Tao Sizhi didn’t speak at first, but he couldn’t hold back. He shared his thoughts with Jiang Ge: “Sell it on the used car platform.”

Jiang Ge smiled in a low voice, and he raised his hand as if he wanted to touch Tao Sizhi’s face. , Tao Sizhi avoided, he stopped laughing.

The hotel was only a ten-minute drive from the campus dormitory, and they arrived quickly.

Jiang Ge’s car could not enter the dormitory area, so it parked aside. Tao Sizhi asked him for the lottery ticket he took just now. He was reluctant, but he gave it anyway, and let Tao Sizhi sit. He opened the door and came over with an umbrella and picked Tao Sizhi out of the car.

Tao Sizhi walked down, the rain had subsided a lot, the icy air was against his face, seeping into his collar, and he pursed his lips tightly.

“I’ll take you off.” Jiang Ge closed the door for him and said.

Tao Sizhi wanted to refuse again: “It’s a little troublesome to go in and register,”

“No trouble.” Jiang Ge said.

He put his arms around Tao Sizhi’s shoulder, held an umbrella, registered at the gate, and walked in with Tao Sizhi.

The air is wet and cold on a rainy night in January. The collar of Jiang Ge’s cashmere coat rubbed against Tao Sizhi’s face. He was much taller than Tao Sizhi, and his body exuded a warm aura.

The rain hit the umbrella, the standing water beside the concrete road, and the black leaves, obscuring the sound of their breathing.

Tao Sizhi walked next to Jiang Ge, Jiang Ge’s hand on his shoulder gradually lowered, hugging his arm, as if hugging him.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, they arrived at Tao Sizhi’s dormitory building. Jiang Ge took his umbrella, put it on the umbrella stand at the door, and naturally accompanied Tao Sizhi upstairs.

Tao Sizhi lives on the ninth floor. There is plenty of heating in the building. When the elevator went up, he felt a little hot, so he took off his jacket and held it in his hands.

Jiang Ge looked at him, and he also glanced at Jiang Ge.

Entering the corridor, Jiang Ge still walked beside him, without any intention of leaving.

When he finally arrived in front of Tao Sizhi’s door, Tao Sizhi took out the key to open the door, raised his head and said to Jiang Ge, “Goodbye.”

Jiang Ge did not respond to his goodbye, but approached him and wanted to kiss his forehead. Brother taught him his tone and said “no more” to Jiang Ge.

His brother had emphasized many times to him that ordinary friends would not kiss and go to bed. Tao Sizhi knew that Jiang Ge and what he did were wrong.

But even though he said no, Jiang Ge still leaned over.

Tao Sizhi felt ashamed of his brother’s teaching, because Jiang Ge still kissed his forehead; and he felt that he had made a little progress because he did not allow Jiang Ge into his room.
