August 25th, Sunny, Saturday, Luck…

Lin Shu didn’t know if his luck today was good or bad. However, after adding one point to his Luck attribute, he immediately ran to the lottery stand and bought two tickets.

Lin Shu looked at the two lottery tickets he had just bought. One of them was the grand lottery that would be announced today, and the other was the two-colored ball that would be announced tomorrow.

Each lottery had two groups of numbers, costing a total of ¥8.

Lin Shu was particularly superstitious that the number ‘8’ was very auspicious to him.

In fact, Lin Shu had never bought a lottery ticket before, so he didn’t know about it at all. After asking around at the lottery stand, he only discovered that today’s lottery was grand. In addition, there was the two-color ball that would be revealed tomorrow.

Lin Shu didn’t know the numbers for today’s lottery draw. He couldn’t transmigrate, and he didn’t foresee it. He believed in true luck, so he casually wrote down four sets of numbers.

The real winner wouldn’t care which set of numbers it was. It should be the winning number that turned into the group of numbers he wrote.

‘Now that is the kind of confidence I wanted!’ Lin Shu said in his heart.

He put the two lottery tickets into his pocket and planned to go back to study.

However, as Lin Shu returned to the company’s dormitory, Yao Chen called.

Lin Shu looked at the caller ID and immediately knew what was happening.

As expected, when Lin Shu picked up his good friend Yao Chen’s call, he first heard Yao Chen’s excited voice, which kept on chattering.

“Not bad, Lin Shu. Not bad at all. I can see you on Weibo and TikTok, even on Weibo’s trending search. Although your ranking is very low, you’re awesome. You even dared to catch a thief on the bus. Aren’t you afraid of trouble later?

“Many of our classmates already know about it. You’ve really become a celebrity now!

“I’ve even shared your videos and news on my moments to help promote you. Haha, you’re really too bold.” Yao Chen said excitedly.

Lin Shu was clear about this matter because his WeChat messages had been popping up non-stop. In addition, there were also many phone calls asking him what was going on.

His acquaintances, friends, and relatives all called to ask.

Lin Shu’s parents didn’t say anything. They only told Lin Shu not to do such dangerous things in the future, and he shouldn’t force himself, as it would be dangerous.

Actually, Lin Shu didn’t know how his parents found out. They didn’t browse Weibo or short videos, so it must have been someone else who told them.

Lin Shu listened to Yao Chen’s excited words. He really didn’t expect this matter to have such a huge reaction. However, he knew very well that this popularity was only temporary. In fact, this was also considered a very small matter.

It was just the netizens and media exaggerating; obviously, Lin Shu had thought too simply.

It wasn’t common for Lin Shu to stand up and catch a thief on the bus, and the words he said when he was threatened by the thief attracted much attention. Coupled with Lin Shu’s handsome appearance, he naturally drew a lot of attention from the netizens, who liked his post one after another.

Lin Shu and Yao Chen chatted for a while before hanging up.

In Lin Shu’s opinion, the heat of this matter would die down very quickly.

However, Lin Shu’s thinking was still too simple!

…

There were many people gathered at the entrance of the company.

Star City’s influencer media company had directly approached Lin Shu’s company. Moreover, there was more than one company. They were all management companies of influencers and people from live broadcast platforms. These people were all here for Lin Shu.

“Lin Shu, I’m from Culture Media. Our company hopes to sign a contract with you. One million Yuan. The price is negotiable. Our company manages influencers and mainly focuses on film and television.”

That was a bold and unconstrained representative who directly talked about the price.

…

“Lin Shu, you’re even more handsome in person than in the video. We’re an influencer live-streaming company. We want to sign a contract with you to further build your image and popularity and cooperate in the planning of live-streaming operations.

“We’re a local media company in Star City, and we’ve been producing a lot of influencers for a long time. We’re very experienced in this area, and we’re very eager to cooperate with you.”

That was a tactful way of talking about cooperation on equal grounds.

…

Lin Shu didn’t expect a few social media companies to suddenly ask him to sign a contract and let him do live broadcasts. That surprised him very much.

It came too suddenly and even a little inexplicable.

Lin Shu was initially tempted when he heard about the one million Yuan contract fee. Still, he quickly realized he had a lot of one million Yuan in his pocket and didn’t need it.

As for signing a contract to become an influencer and do a live broadcast, Lin Shu had never thought about it.

He was curious why they suddenly asked him to be an influencer and do a live broadcast.

Obviously, Lin Shu didn’t realize that his popularity on the internet and the number of views on his video proved that he had a lot of traffic.

If there was something to look at, there would be traffic. That was also to meet the market demand.

This was also why, no matter what kind of hot news event it was, many people would start streaming with goods after the parties involved had the relevant attention and traffic. Otherwise, they would directly not bring any goods and directly stream, relying on their looks to make a living.

Lin Shu waved his hand and refused, “I’m sorry, I don’t intend to do a live broadcast and become an influencer.”

However, the influencer management company naturally wouldn’t give up just like that. They naturally had better conditions to rope Lin Shu in.

However, they didn’t know Lin Shu wasn’t in the live-streaming industry.

Lin Shu’s current focus was to gain more Exp. Points and level up so he could use the Wishing Talisman hanging around his neck as soon as possible. If not, his Luck attribute would make him rich overnight.

Lin Shu’s refusal was firm. The company that wanted to sign with Lin Shu naturally couldn’t keep pestering him, so they could only pass his business card to him.

Out of courtesy, Lin Shu naturally accepted a few name cards.

After returning to the dormitory, Lin Shu placed the two lottery tickets in the middle of the desk.

Lin Shu prayed, ‘Gods and immortals, please bless me! You must bless me! Especially the God of Fortune, grant me good luck!’

If he could offer two joss sticks, Lin Shu would definitely think of a way to offer them.

The lottery draw would be revealed at 20:30 every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday, and the sales deadline was around 20:00.

Lin Shu had been watching the live broadcast of the revealing of the award at around 8:20 am, waiting for the announcement of the results of the current award.

The closer it was to the announcement of the results, the more excited and nervous Lin Shu became.

‘Adding one point to Luck will definitely make my luck better!’

Lin Shu silently thought to himself, looking forward to it. Then, he watched as the first ball rolled out of the 35 choices.

The number was—

8.

Lin Shu’s heart skipped a beat.
