"Hurry, hurry, let’s join the queue!" Ye Lu, full of excitent, dragged the two kids to stand in the long line.
But winning the big prize is not that easy.
Before it was even their turn, the big prize was drawn. When it finally ca to them, they didn’t get any.
Ye Lu, with a sullen face, pulled her two little ones back: "My free seafood feast... I guess lady luck isn’t on my side."
Third Young Master Jun couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow as he observed her excitent deflate. Is she really that keen on a free feast?
He turned and walked away to phone the captain. "My woman didn’t get the big prize. You must find a way for her to win imdiately. If you do, I’ll double my investnt."
The captain nodded eagerly, turned around, and sternly ordered his subordinates. "Full alert; notify the manager of Hall 11 imdiately. Activate Plan B to ensure she wins the free seafood al!"
"But even if we do it again, we can’t guarantee she’ll win. After all, luck is unpredictable," the manager complained.
"Idiot, just make all the raffle tickets say ’seafood feast’."
Just as Ye Lu, visibly disheartened, was about to leave, she was stopped by the grin beaming manager. "Madam, don’t rush. To show our appreciation for your support, we’ve added another drawing to the raffle."
"No point, I’m unlucky. I don’t want to be disappointed again," Ye Lu replied despondently.
"No, you will certainly win. Trust , you look like a lucky person. Co on!" The manager dragged her away.
Ye Yuan, taken aback, watched in disbelief. A second chance? And a guaranteed win? Is there really such a thing as a free lunch?
He turned his head, just in ti to see Third Young Master Jun leisurely stroll in from outside.
"Haha, I really won the big prize." Ye Lu held up the winning ticket, laughing uncontrollably. She felt so lucky to have won the grand prize this ti, "Kids, isn’t mommy great? A winner on my first try, go~go~go, let’s go enjoy our seafood feast!"
Seeing her beaming face, Third Young Master Jun couldn’t help but laugh as well.
After finishing the seafood feast, rubbing her stomach, Ye Lu thought her luck was not too bad for the day. On a whim, she decided to try her luck at the cruise ship’s casino.
The mont the captain heard this, he was filled with dread. The lady sure knows how to keep them on their toes.
"Third Young Master, it’s not easy to cheat in this. After all, she’ll be playing with other guests. If our people openly cheat, it will be bad for the reputation of the cruise ship."
Third Young Master Jun thought for a while, "Then hire a group of people to play at her table. I will offer a high commission. I will cover all the losses and winnings!"
With that, the captain easily implented the plan, promptly getting a few people to pose as gamblers to play alongside Ye Lu.
"Can I bet $500?" asked Ye Lu cautiously, unaware of the rules of the casino or the minimum chips allowed.
The dealer was taken aback. This was the luxury cruise ship casino where custors generally bet at least $10,000.
"Of course, Madam, you can bet whatever you prefer," he replied joyfully, knowing that no matter how much she bet, she would win. Ah, the rich. They hire people to play along just to make a woman happy.
Ye Lu took a deep breath, battled her uncertainty for a mont before finally making up her mind, "Then I’ll buy the high bet."
The dealer thought, why hesitate? If you buy high, it will certainly be high; and if you buy low, it will be low.
And sure enough, when they rolled, it was high. After a few more rolls, Ye Lu won each ti.
Ye Lu was overjoyed and hugged her two little ones, showering them with kisses, "Mommy is on a roll tonight, we’re so lucky. I never even won fifty cents in a lottery before but tonight, I’ve hit the jackpot!"
