Chapter 11.1 (2/2)

Yifan thought for a moment and said softly: ‘I really don’t want you to jump into the lake. I just want you to go to the lake side, point to the sky and shouted “there is a UFO or something on the line” just to attract everyone’s attention will do’.

My depression cause me headache: ‘Your pathetic idea might as well I jump into the lake.’

I have another thought: ‘When you see me jump, you still have the peace of mind to go and pray for good Fortune Sticks?’

I really despise you this immoral, mind full of capitalist schemes!

‘But I won the good Fortune Sticks right? Half of the victory came from you.’ Probably Yifan saw my unhappy face, hastened to explain.

‘Who cares, you’re a housewife. Your love relations.h.i.+p has anything to do with me?’

Not right, I said to myself, you are getting old for a good marriage. Then, why got so much time to play with me.

After a while, I looked at him and said ‘Yifan ah, how come you visit me with empty handed. No balloon or flowers are fine. But not to the point no fruits and vegetables ah.’

Yifan said: ‘How come AC recruit such a layman like you.’

‘Yes, is a bit common, ha,’ I agree, ‘later I will become more refine.’

Yifan ah, how come you forgot to take away your cigarette? When he left, I hide at one corner, secretly open the package, I feel surprise and guilty because is not cigarette but full of cash.’

Yifan look at me: ‘lack of money?’

‘Cannot lack ah?’ If not because I can’t withstand, I will not come over to see a doctor.’  I put some grievances.

Yifan was a bit surprise: ‘When Lao Jin told me, I thought you are too dedicated to your work.’

I’m very dedicated, Because of my boss I even have to jump into the lake. Not dedicated ma!
