“Perhaps, this gentleman’s luck is simply just that good?”
Manager Zhao could only give a perfunctory answer to the question burning in everyone’s mind.
Although he was fully aware of all the ins and outs of the event, he still could not fully rule out the possibility of foul play.
After all, the young man had drawn three entry ticketsconsecutively!
He would have stood a better chance winning a million yuan lottery at those odds!
Could one’s luck really be this good?
The people below the stage refused to accept that explanation.
“Do you really think of us as fools? He won not just one, not just two, but three entry tickets in a row!”
“Yeah, what kind of luck is that? There’s clearly something fishy going on behind the scenes!”
“Do you really think we’re this easy to fool? If you don’t give us a satisfactory answer today, you can kiss us goodbye as customers!”
“That’s right, just because we’re paying you all doesn’t mean that you can treat us as idiots!”
Manager Zhao broke out in cold sweat.
He knew very well that unless he wrapped up matters nicely, the incident would become a great stain on the company’s image.
Worse still, he might even lose his job as Zhonghai’s branch manager.
However, as he was unable to come up with any solutions, he desperately turned to Tang Feng instead. “Sir, could you please explain how you managed to obtain three entry tickets in a row?”
Everyone unanimously turned their attention towards Tang Feng.
This was the first time Tang Feng felt this many eyes on him. Although his heart pounded wildly, he still maintained a calm image on the surface.
“I am a man of few talents. My luck aside, I truly have nothing else to offer…”
Everyone thought that he would give a proper explanation, but they did not expect him to go with the “lucky” excuse again. Unable to quell the flames of rage within them, all Tang Feng had managed to achieve was to stoke their flames even more.
“How can you lie with such a straight face? Do you actually think you’re blessed by god or something?”
“There’s a one in fifty chance of obtaining an entry ticket. Sure, the first two tickets you won could’ve been attributed to luck, but getting three at once is simply ridiculous!”
“Everyone here is a loyal fan of Pop Mart. It’s sad to think that the company that we’ve looked up to all this time would end up being such a load of horse sh*t!”
“Do you really need to go this far just to win a girl’s heart?”
“I can’t believe you’re still lying even though things have already progressed until this point!”
Not only were the participants doubting his words, even Song Lele and Xu Xinling were skeptical of him.
Tang Feng was instantly enraged. He snatched the microphone from Manager Zhao’s hand and roared at the crowd.
“What the f*ck do you want me to say?! Can’t you tell that I’m really just lucky? Is being lucky against the law? Just because you loser are unlucky doesn’t mean that you can take it out on me! You claim that I’m playing dirty, so, where’s your proof? If you have no proof, what you guys are claiming is literally slander!”
His outburst immediately suppressed the doubts of the crowd.
Everyone looked at him in a daze. They were at a loss for words.
Even Song Lele and Xu Xinling were speechless.
Tang Feng had been maintaining an easygoing front up until this point. As such, they did not expect him to be this scary when he was angry.
However, there were some brave boys in the crowd. They could not let him finish his act alone.
One man within the crowd raised his voice and shouted, “And why should we believe you? If you’re claiming it’s luck, then prove it to us!”
Many others soon followed suit.
“That’s right, you said your luck is good, right? Then prove it to us by drawing another ticket! We’ll believe you’re truly lucky if you manage to do so!”
“Yeah, and you’d better pour out the lottery tickets too, while you’re at it! Who knows what kind of dirty tricks you’ll pull otherwise!”
“That’s right. Pour out all the lottery tickets and draw while blindfolded…”
Everyone gave their suggestions one after another.
Tang Feng immediately sneered, “And why should I? What right do you have to issue me such an order?”
The man who spoke up earlier shouted once again, “It proves that you’ve been cheating otherwise! In that case, the three tickets you obtained earlier should be considered null and void!”
The other participants nodded in agreement, as if they had a common enemy.
Had Tang Feng acted on his own whims, he would have gladly torn up the tickets and leave.
They were merely just toys to him anyway. Losing them was no loss to him.
However, after seeing Song Lele and Xu Xinling’s expressions, he hesitated.
It was clear that they wanted to draw the blind boxes.
They were his friends, so he could not disregard their desires.
“Tang Feng, why don’t… Why don’t we leave.” Song Lele had seen through his thoughts and suggested to leave.
Tang Feng was stunned. “You don’t want that earth figurine anymore?”
Song Lele’s face showed a conflicted expression, but she quickly regained her smile. “I don’t need it anymore. Who knows, I might get another chance in the future. Anyway, there’s no need to have your mood ruined over a silly figurine.”
Xu Xinling, who was standing at the side, did not say anything, but she also nodded.
Upon realizing their concern for him, Tang Feng refused to disappoint them.
He immediately turned his head to look at the participants present, “I can continue to draw as you said, but there’s one thing I’d like you to consider. Any entry tickets I obtain from this point onwards would essentially be nullified. Think carefully.”
Everyone looked at each other.
There were only 100 tickets in this lottery box, and the chances of winning were already pitifully small.
If he drew a few more entry tickets consecutively and all of them were invalidated, the chances of them winning would be even smaller.
While everyone was in the midst of a dilemma, the man from earlier spoke up again. “Go ahead! But you must win the entry tickets consecutively! Otherwise, the first three tickets you won will go to us!”
Tang Feng did not hesitate and immediately nodded, “No problem.”
Upon noticing how confident Tang Feng was, they were instantly confused.
Even if he was seriously lucky, he could not possibly win every time, right?
Where on earth did he get his confidence from?
