Chapter 948: Surprise at the Annual Party
Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong coughed lightly and the buzzing below immediately stopped.
Gu Yundong said, “I know. Everyone is looking forward to the New Year presents. They will definitely be distributed this year. However, before they are distributed, there will be a surprise for everyone.”
Surprise??
Everyone’s eyes widened. Some of the bolder ones who had drunk a little hurriedly stood up and asked, “Boss Gu, what surprise? Is there more food tomorrow after today?”
“Hahahaha, you wish,” someone couldn’t help but scold.
Gu Yundong also smiled. “It’s not good to have fish and meat every day. The surprise I’m talking about is this.”
As she spoke, she glanced at Tong Shuitao, who immediately handed over a wooden box.
Everyone looked confused. ‘A wooden box?’
Could it be that there was something good inside? However, the wooden box did not look big or heavy. What was inside?
While everyone was guessing, Gu Yundong had already spoken. “There are notes inside. There are words written inside. Now, it’s up to your luck. Whoever draws the note with the first, second, and third prizes will be rewarded.”
“Wow…”
There was an uproar below. A lucky draw? There was actually a lucky draw?
This was really a surprise, a huge surprise.
“Alright, now Shuitao will carry the box to every table. You just have to sit in your seats. When the time comes, you just have to reach in and pull out a note. There are a total of 15 rewards this time. Two for the first prize, five for the second prize, and eight for the third prize.”
With that, Tong Shuitao carried the wooden box to the first table.
The first person was stunned for a moment until someone pushed him. He suddenly came back to his senses and quickly reached in to take out a note.
The second person rubbed his hands, closed his eyes, and muttered, “Bless me for winning, winning, winning.”
Then, with an expression that said he was ready to die, he reached his hand in.
The people behind also looked like they were praying to God and Buddha, hoping that they would win.
Even if they couldn’t win the first prize, they could at least win the second or third prizes.
Everyone drew a note, but no one opened it first.
It was as if they would be lucky if they did it late.
Even when Tong Shuitao returned to Gu Yundong’s side, the people below did not stop buzzing.
“Take a look at yours and see if you won any prizes.”
“Why don’t you look at yours?”
“Yours first, then mine. Come on.”
Gu Yundong waited for a long time but did not see these people open the note. She immediately held her forehead.
“It’s getting late. Are you sure you won’t open the note until tomorrow? If that’s the case, I’ll leave.”
“No, we’ll look. We’ll look right away.”
The people below finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and quickly opened the note to read.
Then, voices sounded one after another.
“Hey, let me see. What are these words?”
“I don’t know him either.”
“Ask Zhuangzi. He can read.”
Someone took the note to Zhuangzi, who was nearby. Zhuangzi narrowed his eyes and glanced at the expectant person. He sighed and said, “These words are ‘Thank you for participating.'”
That person was a little confused. “What does it mean?”
“It means you didn’t win the lottery.”
“Ah…” The person immediately wailed and slapped his hands hard. “Bad hands. Why can’t you even get the third prize?”
Gu Yundong saw that many people couldn’t read and did not know what it meant. She immediately explained, “It’s okay if you don’t know the words on the paper. Count them. If it’s four words, you don’t win the lottery. If it’s two words, you do.”
