He won 900 million in the lottery.

Chapter 170 University Gathering

Leave the company.

"Xiaoqi, I've sent you the location."

Everyone has college classmates. As a native of Liancheng, many of my college classmates are developing their careers in the provincial capital. A small number of them are starting their own businesses, but most of them are working for others.

A few close college classmates found out I was in the provincial capital and arranged to have dinner with me tonight.

Hunan cuisine restaurant.

I can't live without spicy food.

Front desk.

"Hello, Jinggangshan private room."

"On the second floor."

"I'll prepay 2000, any overpayment will be refunded and any underpayment will be collected. After the meal, if anyone sneaks down to pay the bill, just tell them someone has already paid."

"Boss, I'll add you on WeChat, and I'll refund the rest of the money to you via WeChat."

"Thanks."

Well, I don't like to fight with others to pay, but as a custom, it's a bit of a problem.

Prepaying in advance is a good idea.

The situation wasn't that tense or tense.

Push open the door to the private room.

3 males and 2 female.

Class monitor Wang Chen, roommate Chu Feng, and classmates Su Kang, Wu Yingrong, and Ding Mo all came together from the university student union.

"Tianyi, you're late!"

"Sorry, there was a traffic jam."

"Hey, you've been drinking and driving!"

I picked up a bottle of wine from the table, opened it, and poured half a glass: "Can't I have a driver? Brothers, it's been a long time. I'll punish myself with one, bottoms up!"

"good!"

"Tianyi is so straightforward!"

Some were from the same dorm, some from the same department, and the longest we hadn't seen each other was two years. I punished myself and brought our friendship back to where it was two years ago!

"Waiter, bring the food!"

Wang Chen, the class monitor in college, is an extremely capable person who excels at socializing and business development. In his first year after graduation, he bought a Passat on his own, which made countless friends extremely envious.

"First, who bought today's wine?"

"Of course it's Chu Feng."

Chu Feng, a second-generation rich kid, was my college roommate, sharing a bunk bed. We talked on the phone most frequently during the years we were starting our own businesses. It was only because of his marriage that we saw each other less often.

"A family of bankers, you've really gone all out today, bringing such fine wine."

"Don't you even know who we're supposed to drink this for? We're in the provincial capital, eating Niulanshan liquor all the time!"

"I thank you for your Niulanshan liquor."

Wang Chen rolled his eyes. Of course, Niulanshan wine is also good, but when we were in school, we mixed it with other wines.

A bottle of Niulanshan liquor, a bottle of Red Bull, a bottle of Sprite, a bottle of black tea, and a bottle of Jiangxiaobai liquor—it tasted like whiskey from a bar…

All the cold dishes are served.

"Quickly, everyone eat a few bites, let's get started."

When old friends meet, drinking is the best way to go!

"I love the customs and Three Kingdoms culture of your Liancheng!"

"Yingrong, you're so bold! We always said you could drink a lot back in school, and after all these years since graduation, you've finally shown your true colors!"

"What's wrong with me drinking? You all can't outdrink me anyway!"

Wu Yingrong has a special constitution; she is a natural alcoholic. She discovered this during her university years, and no matter how much she drinks, she can't get drunk.

Ding Mo chuckled to herself, "In the two years since the pandemic, Ying Rong has taken the three of them out drinking quite a bit, and she always manages to get them all drunk."

Su Kang, his face flushed, said, "Don't count me in. I can't drink anyway."

"Hmph, you can't even drink alcohol, are you even a man?"

Every time they argue, not only Su Kang, but everyone else falls silent in front of Wu Yingrong. The reason is simple: a man can't hold his head up if he can't outdrink a woman!

After several rounds of drinks...

Basically, each person eats about half a jin (250g) of the dish, except for Su Kang Cai Ji (a type of

"Tianyi, what were you so busy with last year? You didn't even pop up in the group chat."

"Sigh, don't even mention it. We've lost so much money, we're terribly embarrassed."

"Tch, showing up now, must have struck it rich? If you become wealthy and powerful, don't forget me!"

"It's better for others to say this than for Chu Feng; your words are completely tasteless."

I'll say something sarcastic.

"I'm not aiming to get rich, but since I've come to the provincial capital to develop my career, I'm hoping to get in touch with you guys and see if you have any connections."

"Looking for Wang Chen, that guy bought another Mercedes this year, making money like it's falling from the sky."

Chu Feng, standing to the side, spoke with a sour tone, saying that even with such good resources and conditions, he couldn't earn this much money. Compared to others, Wang Chen was like a protagonist in a novel, making money as easily as drinking water.

"Class monitor, why don't you give us a chance to speak? Let's all participate."

Wang Chen took a sip of water: "I was just saying it casually, so just take it as a joke. Once you're out, just don't spread it around."

Blind boxes.

Blind boxes featuring trendy toys from different IPs.

As trends evolve, these trends are updated and replaced. Some are based on anime, while others are based on the IPs of the businesses themselves, with anime tending to be more popular.

"Is this thing really that popular?"

"Damn, I bought 2000 yuan worth of tickets last time, but only 800 were won, so I lost more than 1000 yuan."

Chu Feng loves playing this game, and he gets excited and can't stop talking about it.

"I have Labubu, Jasmine, Crayon Shin-chan, and the hidden versions of Fluid Bear, but I bought them all at high prices; I haven't actually unlocked any of them myself!"

We all looked at him.

Chu Feng was puzzled: "Why are you looking at me? My friends all have them. If I don't get a few to display in my office, people will look down on me."

Chu Feng didn't care about money; he cared about face.

Su Kang asked skeptically, "How exactly do you make money?"

Wang Chen wasn't surprised by the expressions on everyone's faces at all: "I entered this industry last year, and as you've all seen this year..."

Yes, I see it, a Mercedes...

"Alright, this is the first time we've all met since the pandemic started, let's not talk about money, let's just drink."

"Come on, cheers!"

The speaker is unintentional and the listener is interested.

After drinking.

"Let's go sing karaoke."

"Holy crap, who secretly paid the bill?!"

Wang Chen called out from behind the front desk, and the rest of us exchanged knowing smiles.

"I was the one who organized this in the group chat. Chu Erdai was supposed to bring the drinks, but who was so shameless as to secretly pay the bill today?"

No one responded.

I had no choice but to say, "Since you didn't get to spend the money on the meal, why don't you just sing karaoke? You're going to be spending money anyway."

"Okay, stop arguing with me. Let's go to DM. I have a membership there, and I don't need to spend cash."

"Let's go, let's go. I've never been to DM before."

Su Kang was very interested.

Chu Feng pressed Su Kang's shoulder very seriously: "Section Chief Su, this place is too chaotic, you can't handle it, and besides, you have to go to work tomorrow."

"Get lost! Damn it, when you were mocking me for not being a good drinker, why didn't you remember I'm the section chief?!"

"How did they all come about?"

"I'll definitely take a taxi."

"I'm driving."

"I drive too."

Of the six people, only Wang Chen and I drove.

"I want to ride in a Mercedes!"

Wu Yingrong's eyes darted around: "I'll ride in Tianyi's car."

Su Kang: "I'll sit too!"

Wu Yingrong said disdainfully, "What are you doing? Go up to the Mercedes."

Finally, Su Kang was pulled away by Chu Feng, while Ms. Ding Mo and Ms. Wu Yingrong rode in my car.

Xiaoqi: "Boss, where to?"

"DM, navigate there directly."

"OK."

Before Wu Yingrong even got into the car, she exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap, Tianyi, you really have a driver?!"

I said helplessly, "You're a woman, be civilized. When have I ever lied?"

Wu Yingrong: "You're not lying."

Ding Mo: "But they usually love to brag!"
