Chapter 32: Like Winning a Prize (4)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Weixi was taken aback. She hadn’t considered the connection between the lottery winning and Qin Zhiyou before. When Xue Feifei posed the question, she knitted her eyebrows slightly, “Really…?”
“Why not? There were only three prizes, so many people drew lots. How come it just happened to be you?” Xue Feifei asked it casually at first, but the more she thought about it, the more plausible it seemed. “Maybe he wanted to avoid suspicion and did not dare to give you a big prize, so he settled on a small consolation prize. After all, he saw you at the event that day.”

It’s true that he knew she was there, but the confrontation that followed wasn’t pleasant at all. Half a month had passed since that day, Qin Zhiyou was still in Yan City, but he had not returned home for a single day. Although there were no women like Liu Yiyi around him, nor any reports about him, God knows if he was involved with other women.
“Whether this is true or false is still unknown, what if it’s a scammer’s message?” Lu Weixi rubbed her temples.
Xue Feifei quickly suggested, “Show me the message.”
It took only a few seconds for her phone to vibrate. Lu Weixi had sent her the message. She also heard Lu Weixi instruct her assistant to check the phone number at the bottom of the message online, which indeed belonged to Hanhai Company’s official customer service. The assistant also called to verify that the third-place winner was indeed Lu Weixi, and they specifically stated that no fees were required to claim the prize, only the winner’s identification.
Despite the confirmation, Lu Weixi still has reservations, “You purchased the item, so you should be the one to claim the prize.”
“What would I do with it, the name I left was yours,” Xue Feifei laughed. “Unless you won the first prize. I heard that the maiden voyage of the Hanhai cruise ship is in two months. Many influential figures in business and society will attend. People are scrambling for tickets, which are now being sold for over a hundred thousand each by scalpers.”
At that, Lu Weixi fell silent, holding her phone. The maiden voyage of the cruise ship… she wondered if Qin Zhiyou would go. Either way, it had nothing to do with her. Anyway, she definitely wasn’t going.
In their five years of marriage, except for family banquets held by the Qin Family, she had never attended any public occasions, and this time would probably be no different.
She chuckled wanly, “If it were up to me, I’d rather have the second prize. A gold bracelet is easy to cash in.”
Xue Feifei was speechless for a moment before adding, “The prize is yours; whether you want to claim it or when you want to do so is your decision. There’s still half a month until the prize redemption deadline, so take your time.”
After hanging up, Lu Weixi stared at the message for a moment before starting the car and driving towards Hanhai Shopping Center. After circling around in the underground parking lot, she decided not to pick up anything and drove straight out.
After spending a short time at her office, she was already at the end of her shift. Still, she didn’t want to go home and instead opened her laptop to continue working on some drawings. She initially studied interior design because her father owned a real estate company. Later, it was for a former boyfriend who was in the same college. Now, it was for herself.
Time always seemed to fly at work, and before she knew it, it was already nine. She stretched, closed her laptop, packed up her things, and prepared to leave the office. Just as she was about to drive off, she noticed a man leaning against a lamppost under the street light not far away. Could it be…. Qin Zhiyou?
