Fishing for Coins
"Don't try to lie to me. I won't believe you." Xia Tian didn't believe it. Could this little girl be so kind? How could she make such a wish?
"It's true!" Yun Xiaodong pouted, "I heard that if you make two wishes at the same time, they won't work, so I changed my wish. I asked my mother to be your wife, as long as you don't chase me away. But now it doesn't work either!"
"Really?" Xia Tian believed it a little this time.
"Of course it's true!" Yun Xiaodong looked angrily at the two guys who were still fishing for coins, "It's all their fault, they are so mean, they actually fished up the coins that people threw!"
"Oh, then your wish will definitely come true!" Xia Tian immediately became happy, "As long as you are obedient, I will not chase you away after I snatch Sister Yunqing as my wife."
"But they have fished up my coins, how can it be possible?" Yun Xiaodong didn't believe what Xia Tian said.
"It doesn't matter, your coin hasn't been caught yet!" Xia Tian replied. He was not talking nonsense. He saw where Yun Xiaodong threw the coin, and even saw the coin in the pool, so he knew that the coin had indeed not been caught yet.
Yun Xiaodong pointed at the two people and said, "They are still fishing. Even if they are not caught now, they will be caught later!"
"It's okay, they won't be able to fish soon!" Xia Tian said with a smile.
"Why?" Yun Xiaodong looked very surprised.
"Because they will fall into the pool soon." Xia Tian answered seriously.
Yun Xiaodong pouted: "Bad uncle, you lied again!"
"ah!"
"Help!"
“Plop! Plop!”
Screams and cries for help sounded almost at the same time, and then Yun Xiaodong saw the two guys who were fishing for coins suddenly seemed to be pulled by someone, and they fell headfirst into the pool and fell into the pool together.
"Yeah, that's great, it would be best if they were drowned!" Yun Xiaodong clapped her hands, looking extremely excited. Then she turned to look at Xia Tian with a bit of admiration: "Bad Uncle, you are so awesome, how did you know they would fall?"
Xia Tian laughed and replied, "Because I can tell fortunes!"
"Really?" Yun Xiaodong already believed Xia Tian a little. Children are easy to deceive, and Yun Xiaodong is no exception. She looked up at Xia Tian and said, "Bad uncle, can you help me calculate whether I will become a beautiful woman in the future?"
"Well, let me calculate it!" Xia Tian looked serious, then nodded, "Well, it's not certain. If Sister Yunqing becomes my wife, then you will become a great beauty. Otherwise, you will become less and less beautiful in the future!"
"Ah?" Yun Xiaodong said with a sad face, "No way? If mom doesn't marry you, I will become ugly, right?"
"But don't worry." Xia Tian comforted her again, "Sister Yunqing will definitely become my wife, so you will definitely become a great beauty."
"Yeah, that's great!" Yun Xiaodong became happy again.
Yun Qing, who was standing by, finally couldn't stand it anymore. She said angrily, "Mr. Xia, don't you feel ashamed for lying to a child like this?"
"Sister Yunqing, I didn't lie to the child!" Xia Tian had an innocent expression.
Yun Qing now had the urge to push Xia Tian into the pool. This guy was clearly lying to the child, yet he pretended to be so innocent!
"Mom, let's continue playing. There are so many people over there. It should be fun!" Yun Xiaodong pulled Yun Qing's clothes again and pointed to the front.
Yun Qing didn't say anything else and continued to accompany Yun Xiaodong to visit the Forbidden City, while Xia Tian continued to follow. Yun Qing and the others were looking at the scenery, while Xia Tian was looking at the beautiful Yun Qing.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, several hours had gone by. It was almost five o'clock, and Yun Xiaodong was tired from playing. They had almost finished playing in all the places they wanted to play, so Yun Qing prepared to take Yun Xiaodong back to the hotel.
The group left the Forbidden City and were about to take a taxi to the hotel when Yun Qing's cell phone rang.
"Ms. Zheng, are you all right?" Yun Qing quickly answered the phone.
The voice on the other end of the phone was a little anxious: "Lawyer Yun, it's bad. My boss and I are being watched by people from our county's Beijing office. They said they received a report that we came here to cause trouble, and they insisted that we go back. We haven't received the money yet, how can we go back?"
Yun Qing frowned slightly: "Ms. Zheng, didn't you explain to them?"
"We explained it, but they didn't believe it. However, I said you could testify for us, so they asked you to come over. Are you free? If you are free, I'd like to trouble you to come over. Otherwise, they will send us back." Miss Zheng seemed very anxious.
"Okay, I'll be there right away. Where are you?" Yun Qing agreed.
"We are at Muyang Hotel, seventh floor, room 709." Miss Zheng replied hurriedly.
"Wait a moment, I'll be there soon." Yun Qing hung up the phone, then turned to look at Li Yan: "Take Xiaodong back to the hotel first, I have something to do outside and will be back soon."
"Okay, Sister Yun." Li Yan agreed.
"Mom, you have to come back soon. We'll be waiting for you for dinner." Although Yun Xiaodong is young, he is actually very sensible.
"Okay, I'll be back soon." Yun Qing nodded, then helped the two of them stop a taxi. After they left, she got into another taxi.
As Yun Qing expected, Xia Tian followed her into the car again. This time, Yun Qing was too lazy to say anything. She just said to the driver, "Master, please take us to Muyang Hotel."
"Muyang Hotel?" The driver seemed a little surprised.
"Master, do you know this place?" Yun Qing asked hurriedly.
"Yes, there is no place in Beijing that I don't know about. But that place is a bit far away. It's quite remote. It takes half an hour to get there even if there is no traffic jam." The taxi driver said, "Do you really want to go there?"
"Yes, Master, please try to be quick." Yun Qing nodded affirmatively.
"Okay, I just happened to be on this shift." The taxi driver started the car.
Xia Tian then asked, "Sister Yunqing, is the person who called you just now the same woman who took the elevator with you before?"
"It's her." Yun Qing answered the question.
"Are they from Muyang County?" Xia Tian asked again.
"How do you know?" Yun Qing was a little surprised. Why did this guy seem to know everything?
Xia Tian did not answer this question, but just laughed and continued to ask: "Sister Yunqing, do you know that there is a place called Qingfeng Mountain in Muyang County?"
