Spoke of the devil and he would come.
At that very moment, Kolten rushed over to the three of them with his bag.
“Sorry, I’m late! I was stuck at work. The damn director made me stay half an hour late without overtime pay. It’s really annoying!”
“It’s okay. Let’s order food now! Excuse me!” Adrien called the waiter in a loud voice.
“Whoa, Adrien, why are you dressed like that? What’s going on? You used to be frugal and save every penny. Now you’re wearing Fendi?” Kolten pushed up his glasses in surprise.
“It’s a long story!” Adrien laughed. “Let’s order some food!”
Adrien loved drinking and chatting with his three friends because it made him feel so real. During their conversation, he learned that none of them were living their ideal lives.
Kolten became a designer and was forced to work overtime every day, while receiving less–than–adequate compensation.
Kamron took some time off to travel before working at his parents‘ company last month. He had just gotten paid for the first time today and treated his friends to dinner.
Gilberto became a salesperson at a Mercedes–Benz dealership.
“What about you, Adrien? What are your plans for the future?”
“Maybe I’ll start a company, have fun, and enjoy life. I was just bragging. But honestly, I have no idea what I want to do!”
“Oh, crap. I actually believed you for a second! But you were just talking big!”
They chatted until 9:30 pm when suddenly a news report on TV caught everyone’s attention.
“We just received a piece of stunning news! A person in our city has just won the jackpot of 200 lottery tickets and will receive more than 150 million dollars! This is the largest prize ever nationwide, and even around the world!”
Adrien was smitten with the voice of the TV host.
“What the hell! Did you guys hear that? Another millionaire was born in Reburg!” Kolten exclaimed.
“Why bother to care about that? You are not the lucky dog! Let’s eat and drink up! If you guys want to buy cars in the future, don’t forget to come to me! The place I work has every model of Mercedes–Benz! You guys can help me reach. sales quota too!” Gilberto said happily.

Adrien left the table halfway through and paid the bill at the front desk. The meal cost 110 dollars, leaving him with just a few dozen for a taxi ride home.
They talked until after 11 pm before going home. Adrien felt reluctant to leave his college buddies, as he always felt like he saw them less and less often as they entered society. Sometimes they would only be able to see each other once every three or five years!
Adrien checked his balance as he went home and found he had only 30 cents left. Without hesitation, he bought a bottle of water. Spending all his money would upgrade the system!
Watching the control panel in his mind go from level 1 to level 2, he saw that apart from the Prediction Key, the Blessing Key also lit up again.
“Ding! The system has been successfully upgraded to level 2, and the host will receive a cash reward of 150 thousand dollars!”
“Oh my! It increases by fifty times from level 2 to level 3! That means I’ll receive seven million dollars from level 3 to level 4, right?”
The system remained silent….
Adrien went home excitedly and got washed up. Then, he took out the lottery that was worth 150 million dollars! He laughed with his mouth wide open, but he made no voice!
Maybe due to the alcohol, Adrien still fell asleep soon, even though he had just won a jackpot.
He didn’t wake up until the next morning and got up when the sunlight glaring through the window became too much to
bear.
After quickly washing up and disguising himself with his shabby clothes, a mask, and a hat, Adrien took a cab to the lottery center of Reburg with his backpack.
Inside the lottery center, an employee exclaimed, “Oh my god, sir! You won the lottery with the maximum sum in global history! Can I take a photo with you?”
“Sorry, please redeem it for me first, Adrien refused.
The employee was not upset by the refusal. They brought out a calculator and calculated the amount that Adrien won from the jackpot.
“Sir, each winning ticket is worth 750 thousand dollars! After the tax, each ticket is worth 600 thousand dollars. As you bought 200 tickets, your total winnings are 120 million dollars! We have some charity projects for welfare and education. Would you like to contribute?”
“Give me 114 million dollars and donate the remaining 6 million dollars to the *onal project. Adrien made a quick
decision. After the employee processed the procedures, Adrien took the check for more than 114 million dollars and quickly. left the lottery center.
On the way to the bank, Adrien had a secret look at the check. It was issued by the Treasury Bank, which was one of the largest banks in the country. Therefore, he needed to go to the headquarters of the bank to open an account and deposit the money.
Since the bank was located near the lottery center, Adrien walked in, explained his purpose to the employee, and sat down to wait for his turn.
Not long after, it was Adrien’s turn.
The bank teller asked, “Hello, what can you?
do
“I want to open an account and deposit some money,” Adrien replied.
“Sir, please go to the automatic teller machine next door, and the manager will help you!”
“I want to deposit a check,” Adrien said.
“Oh, please give me the check,” the bank teller casually took Adrien’s check. glanced at the amount on it, and was suddenly
stunned.
“Sir! Is this… your check?”
“Of course! Whose else could it be?” Adrien replied.
“Please wait for a moment. I will ask our president to serve you!”
“Uh? I don’t think it’s necessary” Adrien didn’t care who served him. He just wanted them to process his request as soon as possible.
Two minutes later, the bank president ran over.
“Hello, Mr. Higgins. I am the bank president, Hester West. It’s my pleasure to serve you. Since your deposit amount is huge, we have specially opened a black card for you! From now on, you are the most distinguished customer of our bank!”
“Okay,” Adrien replied.
Hester operated the computer for a while and kept glancing at Adrien in secret. She wondered, “How can this guy, wearing ragged clothes, be so wealthy? Did he steal the check? But if a check for such a large amount of money was lost, it would certainly be reported.”
“Sir, we need to fill in your work address. Can you tell me about it?” Hester tentatively asked.
“Okay, then write down Corestar Group,” Adrien said.
“Corestar Group???”
Yep, any problems?”
“May I ask what your position is in the company?”
“Do you really need so many details?” Adrien asked in a slightly displeased tone.
“Yes, sir. Can you tell me your position?”
“CEO.”
“Ah? Sir, are you joking? This position needs to be verified!”
“No problem!”
