Chapter 235 The Breakfast Shop Owner and the Man He Picked Up (9)
The Breakfast Shop Owner and the Man He Picked Up (Part 9)
None of the three got anything good.
The husband tried to coerce and bribe Lance into not going to the police station for trouble, but Lance didn't buy it at all.
Later, when he opened his mouth, the three people began to panic.
In the end, the man took his wife to apologize together, and bought a bag of apples worth a few dollars, for fear that Lance would really go to the police station to complain to their sister-in-law.
It is not easy to pass the civil service exam these days. If they really bring harm to their own family, they will be scolded to death by their sister-in-law.
The old man didn't get what he wanted, as Lance made him sit there and force him to sign a note.
It was written on it that he acknowledged the debt and was willing to pay it voluntarily. After writing it, the old man just turned around and left.
As for the meal he had?
What does it have to do with him if the couple insists on entertaining him?
Because of the commotion of these three people, they didn't finish selling the goods until 9:30 in the morning.
After closing the store, Song Ning couldn't help but ask Lance who was mopping the floor.
"Are you really going to file a complaint?"
"fake."
Lance finished mopping the floor neatly, but was thinking in his heart whether he should let Song Ning go to the mall.
A newly opened shopping mall a little further away is having an event, offering a chance to enter a lucky draw with purchases of RMB 68 or more. The second prize is a sweeping robot that few people in small towns can afford right now.
It's worth 6,888.8 yuan, which is not expensive. It's okay for him to buy one for Song Ning, but now his identity is just a 'clingy husband who has temporary amnesia but has a wife who manages the money and the family is not wealthy', so he really can't afford this money.
If he could convince Song Ning to go, he could do it behind the scenes. This way, the work in the store could be reduced a little, and Song Ning wouldn't always sneak around to find work when he wasn't paying attention.
As Lance finished mopping the last corner, he straightened up and stretched his shoulders. His white shirt was wet with sweat, showing his smooth skin lines. Song Ning took one look at him and felt his ears slightly hot, so he turned his head away.
"Fake? You just threatened them?"
"It's not all threats. If they really start to make trouble, I plan to call the police directly and then point out their names and ask their sister-in-law to come and deal with it."
Lance glanced at Song Ning's ear and curled his lips slightly, "By then, everyone will know about this without me having to complain."
Song Ning understood.
"So it really depends on what they do. You don't really plan to settle accounts with their sister-in-law."
"Of course, I don't know her."
As soon as Lance finished speaking, he put his fingers on hers.
"But Ningning, do you want to explain it to me?"
The big hand on the back of his hand was so hot that Song Ning didn't dare to look at Lance.
He clearly did nothing wrong, but when he met Lance's eyes, he still felt inexplicably guilty.
"I, I just think if your family is looking for you, they will be very anxious."
"Ningning, are you worried about me?"
Lance's eyes were gentle, and Song Ning only looked at them for a second before quickly looking away.
"I just think it's the right thing to do."
"Thank you Ning Ning."
Lance grabbed his fingertips and kissed them, "But how long will Ningning be angry? We are obviously husband and wife, um."
Song Ning's palms felt hot and his face flushed as he covered his mouth, which was talking nonsense.
"I told you that we are not. You will know when we get news from the police station."
He ran away like the wind. Lance could even outwit the teacher with his words, so he didn't want to argue with Lance.
After this little farce ended, Lance actually found an excuse to trick Song Ning to the mall.
But his plan almost failed - Song Ning obviously just wanted to accompany him and had no intention of buying anything.
Lance was a little amused but he managed to coax Song Ning into buying enough money for one lottery draw through coaxing and deceiving him.
When Song Ning went to draw the lottery, he felt a little embarrassed because he was pushed around. "Just go and draw. I used to draw some tissues and never got anything good. You must have better luck than me."
Lance's smile was gentle but his hands were firm.
Song Ning had no choice but to stand in front of the lottery box and asked, "Can I just draw directly?"
"Yes, could you please show me your receipt first?"
"here."
"Okay, you have one chance to draw a lottery. The first prize is a seven-day trip for two to the Maldives."
Song Ning pursed her lips and blushed, "I don't want to be the first place anymore, it's good enough to win the prize."
He reached out and touched it casually, then took out a small card.
"Hmm? Do I need to scrape it open?"
"Yes, just scratch it and see if you've won. This is all for fairness and justice."
"You guys are quite particular."
Song Ning sighed and didn't think much about it. He picked up the coin on the table and scratched it directly.
A [two] appeared first.
Song Ning was stunned, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Lance.
"bingo?"
Lance walked forward with his long legs. "Oh, this should be the second prize, right?"
"Could it be something else?"
"It can't be a two-dollar reward, right?"
After Lance finished speaking, the merchant immediately shook his head, "No, no, we only have second prize for the two characters in it. You will know after scratching it open."
So does this mean that I really won the second prize?
Song Ning was a little nervous. His hand holding the coin was trembling a little as he carefully scraped away the other covered areas.
【Second Prize】.
"It really is the second prize, we won!"
Song Ning's eyebrows were raised and his mouth opened into a big smile.
"Congratulations! I told you to get the chance. You're really lucky."
Lance smiled and applauded him, and other people in the mall heard the noise and gradually gathered around.
"what is this?"
"It seems to be the lucky draw event at the mall today?"
“Did this person win the lottery?”
"Yes, I won. I heard that I won the second prize."
"Can I really win? I thought these lotteries were all scams. What's the second prize?"
"It looks like a machine of some kind. I looked at it and it seems like the first prize is a big prize for a trip abroad."
"Going abroad? I have never been abroad in my life. How can I win the lottery?"
"I don't know either. Let's go over and take a look. Let's go for a walk."
People in the mall suddenly gathered around. Lance took a look and held Song Ning in his arms, then looked at the person in charge of the mall.
"Would you mind giving us our prize? We are ready to leave."
"Oh well."
Before the crowd completely surrounded them, Lance carried the box and protected Song Ning as they left the mall.
After bringing the things back to the shop, Song Ning suddenly felt a little annoyed.
"Oh, I forgot to ask if this prize can be cashed in. Is this a robot vacuum cleaner? We are so small here, how can we use such a good thing? I'll go back and ask."
Just as he was about to leave, Lance stopped him quickly.
"I just asked and it cannot be redeemed for cash. This is a prize provided by their mall in cooperation with other brands."
Lance looked serious, as if to say, "I've thought of this for you," but he was actually sighing in his heart.
Are you kidding? He only used the little bit of his ability just to reduce the burden on the little prince. How could he really let Song Ning go back to cash in?
He's taking it apart and putting it back together now!
