Can he protect his loved ones, lovers, and friends from being violated?
The answer is basically no.
These thoughts were like a thousand-pound boulder that weighed down heavily on Lin Baiâs heart, making him unable to relax for even a moment.
Suddenly, an almost inaudible notification sound rang out on the phone.
It was the sound of the Future News app.
Lin Baiâs heart trembled as he looked down in surprise.
However, he only saw a nearly transparent message pop-up window.
In the blink of an eye, even the pop-up window had completely disappeared.
It was as if everything was an illusion and had never existed.
However, Lin Bai was sure that the message pop-up window had really appeared.
The Future News app had tried to transmit some information to him.
Unfortunately, due to the interference from his superpower, Lin Bai couldnât see anything.
But this at least proved that the Future News app didnât really disappear, but was suppressed to a completely transparent level.
So as long as the interference disappeared, the Future News app should be restored, and everything would return to its original state.
Lin Bai didnât really lose it.
Then, the problem came. How could he get rid of Wang Chenyu as soon as possible so that the Future News app could return to its original state?
Lin Bai didnât have a clue for a moment.
He knew too little about Wang Chenyu, and he didnât know if Wang Chenyu had any trump cards other than his superpower.
It wasnât wise to act rashly.
âForget it. If I canât think of anything, Iâll forget about it for the time being. Iâll buy a car first.â
Lin Bai took a deep breath and tried his best to ease his emotions. He didnât want to be immersed in stress and anxiety all the time.
Moderate stress could bring motivation, but if the stress was too great, it would only bring more harm.
Lin Bai tried his best to get rid of all the distracting thoughts in his mind. He opened Didi to fill in the target location and started to call for a car.
Soon, someone received the order and rushed over to Lin Baiâs side.
Lin Bai put away his phone and waited. He casually glanced across the road and found a very inconspicuous lottery station.
This was the suburbs, where there were relatively few people. The surroundings were basically all resort hotels and lodgings.
The small lottery station, which was sandwiched between a bunch of resort hotels and lodgings, looked very out of place.
Few people who would come here to spend money would buy lottery tickets.
âI really donât know what the boss is thinking. He actually opened a shop here. He must be out of his mind.â
Lin Bai ridiculed casually. Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat. Before the taxi arrived, he trotted across the road.
He walked straight into the lottery station.
âBoss, give me a lottery ticket,â Lin Bai said.
The boss was an old man in his sixties or seventies. He was taking a nap with the newspaper in his hands. When he heard Lin Baiâs words, he instantly became spirited.
âYou want to buy lottery tickets, right? How much do you want to buy? Do you want to raise the stakes?â
Lin Bai shook his head and said, âNo. Just give me the most ordinary one.â
The boss instantly lost interest and casually pointed at the QR code beside him.
âTwo dollars.â
Lin Bai scanned the code and paid up.
The boss raised his chin and said unhappily,
âThe machine is over there. Choose your own number.â
Lin Bai did not care about his attitude. He walked straight to the machine and prepared to pick his number.
He wanted to rely on his intuition, but on second thought, since it was to verify his luck, he might as well choose the machine.
Therefore, he had the lottery machine randomly generate a set of numbers. After the lottery ticket was printed, he put it into his pocket without even looking at it.
The taxi he had called for just now had arrived and?it just happened to stop at the entrance of the lottery station.
âLooks like my luck is pretty good.â
Lin Bai thought to himself and went straight out of the door and into the car.
In the car, the driver was just about to call him when he saw him get into the car. He could not help but be stunned.
Then, he confirmed, âThe ending number is 9385. Is that Mr. Lin?â
âYes.â
The driver smiled. âI saw that there was no one on the side of the road. I was just about to call you. I didnât expect you to be inside. I just happened to stop at the entrance. What a coincidence.â
Lin Bai smiled and nodded. âYeah, itâs quite a coincidence.â
The driver continued to chat. âYouâre going to the car dealership, right? To buy a car?â
âIâm going to see if thereâs a suitable one first.â
Actually, Lin Bai didnât know what car to buy either. He could only say that he knew a little about this aspect.
Moreover, considering that he still had to keep a low profile and not be too ostentatious in school, he couldnât buy a car that was too expensive.
The driver laughed and joked, âYou just bought the lottery ticket, and youâre already looking at cars before the lottery draw. Isnât that a little too rushed?â
Lin Bai smiled faintly. âIâm just bored and buying a car for fun. How can I count on this to get money to buy a car?â
The driver laughed and said, âHahaha, Iâm just joking. Donât take it to heart.â
âI used to buy lottery tickets often too. I bought them for seven or eight years. If I calculate it, it would cost at least 100,000.â
Lin Bai followed up by asking, âHave you ever won the lottery?â
âWon my ass!â
The driver said angrily, âI get angry when I think about it. Why canât I do something else with that much money? Isnât it good to buy ribs??This thing is just to fool the people. There is no grand prize. Itâs pure nonsense!â
âThere are always people on the internet who say that those so-called grand prize winners are actually their insiders who are pretending. They are trying to create an illusion for the people that they can get rich overnight so that everyone can continue to throw money into it.â
âI never believed it in the past, but now I understand. What the Internet says is right. There arenât so many people who can become rich overnight and win the lottery. Itâs all nonsense!â
âBuddy, I advise you to try your best not to touch this stuff. Why waste your money?â
Even after so many years, when he mentioned the money that he had wasted, the driverâs face was still full of heartache.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He was originally just casually chatting with Lin Bai out of boredom while driving but as they chatted, he couldnât help but become serious.
The rest of the journey was basically spent in his complaints and persuasion.
The complaints were about lottery tickets and shady deals and injustice.
As for persuasion, of course, it was to persuade Lin Bai to come to terms with reality as soon as possible and stop daydreaming about winning the lottery. He should just save up and do something meaningful with his money.
Lin Bai answered without much thought.
Although he didnât agree with the driverâs view that the lottery tickets were all lies, Lin Bai felt a little touched by the driverâs earnest advice.
They were just strangers who met by chance, yet the driver was willing to spend so much time persuading him. It was enough to show that he was really warm-hearted.
Out of his gratitude and out of his sympathy for the driver who had lost more than 100,000 yuan, Lin Bai conveniently stuffed the lottery ticket to the driver when he got off the car.
The driver did not expect Lin Bai to be like this. He was completely stunned.
âBuddy, what are you doing?â
Lin Bai smiled and said, âThis is the lottery ticket that I just bought. Iâll give it to you as a gift.â
The driver said awkwardly, âI havenât touched this thing for many years. Besides, if I really win the lottery...â
Lin Bai didnât wait for him to finish his sentence and interrupted him with a smile.
âIf you really win it, itâs all yours.â
