Hou Yi's sharp gaze fell into Wu Youyou's eyes, and she felt a twinge of fear. Though this was the cold-blooded Hou Yi in his truest form, his sudden change in demeanor jolted her back to reality.
Wu Youyou remained silent.
Hou Yi, having exhausted his patience, pushed Wu Youyou back onto the arena. "You will expend all your energy here. I won't accompany you to fight; if I do, I won't go easy on you. Do you understand?"
Wu Youyou turned around and wildly swung her fists at her opponent, crying and shouting, "Zong Jin, you bastard!"
Meanwhile, at the Wen Family.
Zong Jin sneezed several times in a row, his nose itching uncontrollably.
As their meal came to an end, Zong Zeyu exchanged a glance with Zong Jin, who then shared a knowing look with Wen. The three seemed to have already planned something significant, their eyes communicating a silent agreement.
Wen called out to Tong Le, who was washing dishes in the kitchen. "Tong Le, why don't you take a break? Let Zhou Zishuo handle the dishes."
Zhou Zishuo looked at Wen with a forlorn expression. "Sister, you're going out without me?"
Wen casually replied, "You're staying home to tidy up. We'll be back after a short stroll."
The four of them stepped outside together, with Zong Zeyu and Tong Le walking side by side and Zong Jin and Wen pairing up.
Zong Zeyu held Tong Le's hand.
Gathering his courage, Zong Jin mimicked him and took Wen's hand as well.
Tong Le was somewhat puzzled; it was so hot outside that any stroll would be uncomfortable.
Just then, Wen suddenly exclaimed, "There's a lottery shop over there! Let's buy some scratch cards!"
Tong Le turned around and indeed spotted a lottery shop. She had just bought some scratch cards not long ago and had won fifty dollars!
Eager to try her luck again, Tong Le was excited while Zong Zeyu smiled silently beside her.
The four entered the lottery shop. The owner behind the counter glanced at Zong Zeyu twice, as if they were exchanging some secret signals through their eyes.
Soon enough, the owner pulled out a stack of scratch cards from behind the counter, seemingly prepared just for them.
Wen bought the newly presented scratch cards from the owner and deliberately handed the bottom few cards to Tong Le.
Tong Le focused intently on scratching off her tickets while Wen playfully asked the owner, "Hey, what’s the jackpot these days?"
The owner replied, "For these scratch cards? The top prize is eight million! But no one has won it yet. Let’s see if you have that kind of luck."
Wen raised her voice in excitement. "Really? Eight million for first prize! That’s even better odds than winning the Double Color Ball!"
Wen finished speaking and exchanged a glance with Zong Zeyu.
Then, she turned to Tong Le and said, "Lele, if you really manage to scratch off an eight million grand prize, won't your dowry be sufficient? You wouldn't need to work so hard anymore; you could just marry Zong Zeyu directly."
Tong Le scratched away diligently, hoping for a win. She didn't expect to hit the eight million mark; she felt she wasn't that lucky. Still, she encouraged herself, remembering that the last time she had won fifty dollars!
With renewed confidence, Tong Le declared, "If I really do scratch off eight million, I’ll marry him on the spot! But honestly, I’d be thrilled just to win eighty dollars. Hehe."
Just ten seconds later, as she scratched the ticket with her right hand, it froze. She didn’t know if it was because the heavens had heard her earnest vow or if they were simply pitying her for all the hardships she had faced in life, but she had actually won eight million!
Tong Le's hands trembled uncontrollably as she stared in shock at Zong Zeyu and then at Wen. She had won!
Zong Zeyu snatched the Scratch Card from Tong Le's hand and examined it with a serious expression. "Wow, it really is eight million," he said. He turned around and approached the boss. "Hey, I’d like to cash this in."
Then he grabbed Tong Le by the shoulders and exclaimed, "Wife, your dowry is sufficient now; we can get married!"
