2: Why didn't you go to work today?

Chapter 2: Why Didn't You Come to Work Today?

Mr. Li's veins bulged as he shouted.

Especially when he saw the team he bet on score a goal.

He almost wanted to jump up!

However, the expressions of the other lottery players in the sports lottery shop who had placed bets were not quite right.

How many people dared to bet on an underdog team?

But this person actually bet the opposite.

It was simply giving money away to the sports lottery!

What made people grit their teeth the most was that, if this trend continued, he was really going to win!

Those lottery players who had placed heavy bets on the favored teams were all going to lose everything.

Many people had bet seventy or eighty thousand, or even over a hundred thousand, which was an unbearable sum for ordinary people.

The owner of the sports lottery shop was also fully focused at this moment.

These two young people, wearing sunglasses and school uniforms, had bet hundreds of thousands on the underdog team.

If this match truly resulted in an upset.

After deducting the occasional income tax, their net winnings would be five million!

Five million, he had never seen that much money in his life!

Subsequently, the two teams began to score goals alternately.

When the strong team scored, the other lottery players also shouted along.

When the team Li Zhiyan supported scored.

Mr. Li shouted louder than anyone else!

Every goal, every kick now was worth a fortune!

…

Sure enough, the outcome of the game was exactly as Li Zhiyan had predicted.

"We won!"

Mr. Li jumped onto the chair! He danced with joy, unable to control himself.

He also realized that this person in front of him was truly his future self!

After pulling Li Zhiyan to a secluded place outside the door where no one was around.

Mr. Li said excitedly, "You really are me from the future!"

"In that case, we can make a lot of money and do great things!"

"Maybe we can even become the richest person!"

Mr. Li had many thoughts in his mind.

"If you earn too much money, it won't belong to you anymore."

"It's good enough to have a reasonable amount."

Mr. Li was a little confused, but his future self was speaking.

There must be a reason for it.

At this time.

Li Zhiyan saw that the countdown for the traversal program was almost over.

So he gave instructions.

"Remember, Mr. Li, don't make a fuss, and don't tell relatives or friends anything."

"After paying back the money and the taxes, you'll have about five million."

"You have to keep a low profile."

Although he knew he was dreaming.

Li Zhiyan still subconsciously instructed his immature self at that age.

If such a young person didn't hide this huge sum of money.

It would be very difficult to keep so much money.

Li Zhiyan wanted to say something more, but the countdown ended, and he instantly disappeared from this world.

Not long after…

Li Zhiyan returned to reality.

He looked around at his surroundings.

He was still in his small house in the suburbs of the Magic City.

Everything around him was so familiar.

It was a well-decorated, ordinary commodity apartment, one hundred square meters.

He had slept on the sofa last night, and without the air conditioning, he was now sweating profusely.

"It's half-past ten…"

"That dream yesterday was really great…"

"Not only did it make up for my regret, but I also earned five million!"

"And I can travel back…"

Li Zhiyan unlocked his phone.

He wanted to see if anyone had sent him WeChat messages.

If there was anything, Li Zhiyan had been used to this scene since he became an adult.

However, WeChat had not yet opened.

Li Zhiyan noticed a text message with the Construction Bank's avatar.

"I haven't spent anything, why would the bank send me a text message?"

Li Zhiyan opened the text message.

"Your Construction Bank savings card ending in 3435 has received a cash deposit of 5,011,802 yuan."

"Current balance: 5,124,332 yuan."

"Five million…"

"Five! Million!"

This amount instantly made Li Zhiyan wide awake!

Sitting up abruptly, Li Zhiyan pinched himself.

"Am I not dreaming, or is someone playing a prank on me?"

Looking at the divorce certificate beside him, Li Zhiyan confirmed that he was indeed not dreaming…

"APP, right…"

Li Zhiyan opened the bank card's APP.

Entered the password, logged in with his fingerprint.

Checked the balance…

A moment later.

He confirmed that his current balance had indeed become 5.12 million!

Trying to open the traversal mini-program, Li Zhiyan quickly saw the panel.

The time for his next traversal was cooling down.

He wasn't dreaming! He had really returned to the past!

"Mr. Li's earnings have really arrived in my account…"

"According to the program's prompts, no one can check my money, and no one can freeze it…"

"Let's go to the bank first."

Li Zhiyan couldn't help himself.

…

There weren't many people at the bank today.

After Li Zhiyan sat down.

After the bank teller checked Li Zhiyan's bank card balance.

She immediately became very polite.

"Sir… please wait a moment, I'll go get our manager."

It was also Li Zhiyan's first time having so much cash.

So it was also his first time enjoying such treatment.

This society really has many privileges for the rich.

Soon, a bald middle-aged man walked over.

"Mr. Li, I am the manager of this bank, Sun Biao. Please come with me to my office."

"It's too hot here, you probably won't be comfortable staying here."

At this moment, Li Zhiyan only wanted to know if his income could be spent with peace of mind.

He followed Sun Biao towards the manager's office.

"Mr. Li, you are so young, you are truly accomplished at a young age."

In the Magic City, there are actually many people with five million in cash.

After all, there are too many people here who have benefited from the era's dividends.

However, there are fewer people like Li Zhiyan, who have five million in cash at twenty-three years old.

Unless they are a super-rich first-generation, it's impossible to give a child so much money.

Today's rich first-generations are not afraid of their children squandering money, but afraid of their children wanting to prove themselves.

The pocket money given to children is limited.

Someone like Li Zhiyan.

His family background is definitely not simple.

"What kind of business do you want to handle at our bank this time?"

Upon arriving at the manager's office, a bank teller who had followed them in respectfully poured tea for Li Zhiyan.

Normally, these tellers at the front desk would mostly ignore ordinary people.

But their attitude towards Li Zhiyan at this moment was surprisingly good.

"I want to confirm how much balance I still have."

Upon hearing this…

The manager began to help Li Zhiyan check.

After a while, he said seriously, "Your account currently has over five million."

The manager felt that Li Zhiyan was truly extraordinary; the five million transfer to him came from a whitelist and he had no query permissions for it.

Hearing this, Li Zhiyan completely relaxed.

"Mr. Li, are you interested in our bank's large-amount certificates of deposit? I can offer you a very high interest rate."

Li Zhiyan shook his head.

"No, I'm not interested in certificates of deposit."

Subsequently, the manager chatted with Li Zhiyan for a long time before Li Zhiyan left the bank.

…

At two-thirty, his work partner, the beautiful He Shilian from his department, called him.

His relationship with his colleagues was just a nodding acquaintance.

So, no one knew about his marriage.

He Shilian always thought he wanted to pursue her, so she deliberately kept her distance from him.

He never took it seriously either.

After all, they usually only met at the company.

Being friends on the surface was enough.

Her family was relatively poor, so she wanted to find a boyfriend in Magic City with an annual salary of over 300,000 yuan to secure her future life.

"Li Zhiyan, why didn't you come to work this morning?"

"I sent you so many messages, but you didn't reply."

"The team leader is urging us to submit the report."

"I can't finish it alone if you don't come."

Only then did Li Zhiyan remember…

He had only taken leave yesterday afternoon to get a divorce.

As an office worker, he still had to go to work.

And now it was already the afternoon of the next day, and he had skipped work this morning.

"I'm sorry, I overslept… I'll head back now."

With so much money, Li Zhiyan planned to wait until the traversal time cooled down, then continue to try if he could go back to the past. If he could continue to go back to the past, then there would be no need for him to continue his job.
