Although everyone was extrely curious and surprised by Shen Siyuan’s magic tricks, it wasn’t the highlight of tonight’s annual event.

The highlight was the lottery draw sandwiched between the performances, after all, this directly concerned everyone’s personal interests.

So with every draw, everyone was on edge, hoping they’d be the one picked.

The odds of winning were quite high because, aside from ten Teslas as grand prizes, there were many other smaller prizes.

There were electronic products like phones and laptops, and ho appliances like refrigerators, washing machines, and rice cookers.

In total, there were about fifty to sixty prizes, and with fewer than two hundred employees, the winning odds were about one in four, which is already quite high.

"Congratulations to number 87 for winning a washing machine."

As the host on stage spoke, Long Shihai, who was seated with Shen Siyuan, sighed and then hurriedly went up to claim his prize, as he was number 87.

He sighed because winning the washing machine ant he lost the chance to win other prizes.

Everyone had a number in hand, corresponding to a number in the lottery box, and if you were picked, you lost eligibility for subsequent draws.

For the single Long Shihai, a washing machine was useless, since his landlord already provided one in the rented apartnt, so it was either going to end up at the seafood market or sold at a discount to colleagues who needed one.

"Winning is good enough; a washing machine is better than my rice cooker, right? Hurry and go get your prize." Zhang Hicheng said.

Everyone at the table laughed because earlier he had won a rice cooker, squashing his hopes of driving ho a Tesla today.

Just then, Guan Yanping suddenly sat up straight, craning his neck and taking deep breaths around him.

"I’m sucking all your luck in, the next big prize is definitely mine."

Everyone laughed again, and Zhao Guangcai said, "There are still four cars left, perfect for the four of us."

He said this because the network maintenance departnt had Guan Yanping, Zhao Guangcai, Ge Changsheng, and Shen Siyuan yet to win, which ant they still had a chance at the grand prize.

As for Wei Suhua, who was on stage hosting, she had the best luck of all, having won a brand-new smartphone.

"Among us four, the most likely to win the grand prize is definitely Shen Siyuan." Zhao Guangcai said, pushing up his glasses.

His words carried subtext, that sly glasses wearer.

"You guys don’t think it’s rigged, right? Let tell you, I can’t even drive." Shen Siyuan said.

"Not able to drive? Practice more and you’ll learn." Zhang Hicheng said.

"I didn’t say it was rigged, I just think having the favor of President Ruan ans you must have great fortune." Zhao Guangcai said with a grin.

Great fortune? I’m about to ascend the throne, thought Shen Siyuan, rolling his eyes uncontrollably.

"No need, if I really wanted a car, President Ruan would buy a better one." Shen Siyuan said.

"Tch~"

The crowd booed.

"Congratulations to number 132 for winning a Tesla." Just then, the host on stage announced again.

The audience imdiately glanced at the numbers on their hands to confirm if it was theirs.

Actually, everyone already knew their number, but they held onto a glimr of hope—maybe it really was them, maybe they rembered wrong.

"Uh... 132?"

Shen Siyuan paused with his chopsticks, realizing his number was indeed 132.

Long Shihai and Zhang Hicheng, who had lost their eligibility, imdiately turned their attention to Shen Siyuan.

"Is it really you?"

"If the number’s right."

Shen Siyuan showed his number to everyone.

"It’s rigged, it must be rigged..."

"Your luck is just too amazing! Dammit, I’m jealous..."

...

The crowd clamored, even the adjacent tables looked over.

But everyone was just joking because to ensure fairness, the lottery draw was conducted inside a transparent box.

Instead of paper slips with invisible numbers, they pulled out palm-sized plastic number tags with clear numbers on them.

Each departnt leader would take turns going on stage and randomly selecting a tag, and their actions were simultaneously displayed on the big screen behind, making cheating very difficult.

So with this setup, people would only envy the winner’s luck but wouldn’t suspect any rigging or manipulation, especially since several regular employees had won Teslas before, bolstering belief in the system’s fairness.

However, when Shen Siyuan stood up, the crowd couldn’t help but boo.

So thought there was scheming, so just wanted to stir up trouble, while others were simply envious of Shen Siyuan’s luck...

"Rigged, rigged..."

Soone shouted from the audience, causing a burst of laughter.

"I promise, I really just grabbed randomly." Le Yunxi expressed disbelief herself.

This round’s lottery drawer was Le Yunxi, manager of the custor service departnt, who luckily wasn’t from the sa departnt as Shen Siyuan, otherwise, no amount of explaining could have convinced the crowd.

Red Hearts International’s custor service departnt differed from ordinary companies; they also took care of overseas business collaborations, with employees all being graduates from prestigious schools, multilingual.

Besides the sales departnt, it was the company’s most important departnt, with Le Yunxi enjoying great prestige within the company, so when she spoke, everyone believed her.

"This really is a dilemma."

Shen Siyuan went on stage, showing the number tag to everyone.

"I didn’t expect Manager Le to draw ; I guess it’s just my incredible luck." Shen Siyuan said.

"But no matter how much I explain, people might still suspect foul play, so I’m going to give up this prize and have Manager Le draw again..."

"Wow... really?"

The crowd below exclaid in surprise, all excited; they were concerned with their own interests, none opposed.

Shen Siyuan gestured to quiet everyone, then continued: "The reason I’m forfeiting the prize is partly to ensure fairness and justice, but also because it’s truly unnecessary for ..."

Everyone listened, full of curiosity.

Shen Siyuan paused briefly before continuing: "Because I don’t have a driving license."

The crowd clamored once again.

"Go get it, it’s easy." This was the kind-hearted person.

"Maybe you couldn’t pass?" This carried a bit of malice.

"It’s simple, just need hands." This was the sneaky mockery.

...

Shen Siyuan pressed his hand down again to quiet the crowd before continuing: "I never took the test because there’s no need, wherever I want to go, President Ruan drives ..."

"Tch~"

The crowd booed again, so even whispered curses about wanting to whack him and knock him dead.

But most people gazed towards Ruan Hongzhuang in the front row, especially the departnt leaders sitting with her at the sa table.

They saw that after Shen Siyuan stepped onto the stage, Ruan Hongzhuang’s eyes never left him, observing him affectionately.

Upon hearing this, she showed no displeasure but smiled and waved at the stage, indicating it was over, their boss was completely smitten, and who knows what magic potion Shen Siyuan had fed their boss.
