Chapter 856: Chapter 856: Receiving the Award (2)
Last ti, since Ruan Jianguo was with a few female family mbers, he was sowhat afraid of being squeezed by the crowd, but today wasn’t the case. Upon seeing people gathering around, he seed quite happy, chatting and laughing with everyone quite rrily.
The staff at the lottery station recognized him, and as soon as they saw him coming, they warmly welcod him into the office, offering tea and cigarettes, more cordially than the last ti.
There were several workers at the lottery station, two selling tickets outside, and two hosting inside. One of them, when Ruan Jianguo and his group entered, squeezed through the door crack and ran off in one direction.
Ruan Jianguo thought he had so urgent matters to attend to and didn’t mind.
He just asked the staff mber nearby, “Xiaoliu, when can I pick up the car?” From the conversation just now, Ruan Jianguo had learned his na.
“Brother Ruan, don’t rush. I’ll personally take you there in a bit. For now, have so tea and we can chat more leisurely,” Xiaoliu said smilingly, coaxing Ruan Jianguo and Lu Zhiwei to drink tea.
Ruan Jianguo, a straightforward man, is not really the tea-drinking type; for him, drinking water, especially gulping it down, is much more refreshing.
Lu Zhiwei, standing by, noticed Xiaoliu seed to be hiding sothing, furrowed his brow, and whispered a few words to Ruan Jianguo. Nodding, Ruan Jianguo turned to Xiaoliu, “Xiaoliu, is there sothing you need to tell us? If it’s urgent, just say it. I still need to drive the car back ho, which will take over four hours. If it gets too late, it’s difficult to travel at night.”
Xiaoliu, a bit embarrassed, rubbed his hands before saying, “Here’s the thing, Brother Ruan, this is the first ti our lottery station has issued such a big prize, and now the whole city is buzzing. It’s a big event, so we wanted to invite the two kids who won the prize that day to co over, take so photos, and help us advertise by appearing in the newspaper, is that okay?”
Such a big prize, and double at that, was unprecedented so the lottery station wanted to take this chance to do so publicity.
“Why must it be them, can’t we do it?” The Ruanlin Family had strictly warned that Liu i must not know about the big prize. If it appears in the newspaper, everything will be exposed,
Besides, Ruan Jianguo may seem unreliable usually, but he knows Shu Jiao would definitely not want her daughter to be publicly exposed. Better to avoid such issues.
As for himself, he didn’t mind at all, a rugged man, not much to look at.
Hearing this, Xiaoliu found himself in a difficult position, licked his sowhat dry lips, and beca even more embarrassed, “Brother Ruan, your kids are really good-looking, so for the newspaper…”
Right, does this an he thinks I’m not good-looking?
Lu Zhiwei, standing beside smoking, laughed out loud upon hearing this, which made him cough incessantly. Ruan Jianguo, annoyed, glared at him, turned to Xiaoliu with a firm tone, “Then that won’t work. If you want photos, just take ours, as many as you’d like. My kids, no, they’re still studying.”
Speaking of this, Ruan Jianguo’s tone shifted, looking suspiciously at him, “So, are you saying if my kids don’t co for the photoshoot, you won’t give the car?”
Xiaoliu quickly waved his hands, “No, no, that’s not it at all.”
“Then just follow the procedure, taking photos and all, that’s all fine,” Ruan Jianguo said.
Seeing Ruan Jianguo’s firm stance and unwillingness to yield, Xiaoliu had no choice but to compromise and took them to pick up the car.
